Tome of Blood Chapter 65

  Chapter 65-65-Those who dare to touch me try

  In a dilapidated courtyard in the west of the abandoned city of Boulder.

  Mina leaned against the corner, her face was pale and her consciousness was blurred. A hideous wound pierced through her chest, and the bright red blood had already stained the whole suit of clothes.

  Two beautiful little daughters gathered beside her, holding their mother's hand in tears.

  Lame old Frank took a tile through the exposed skylight to catch a little rainwater, and sent it to his wife:

   "Mina... don't sleep, drink some water."

  His condition was not much better than that of his wife. A horrible sword wound almost cut off his right arm, and only a simple bandage was done.

   That was left when he was protecting his wife and young daughter from the sword.

In fact, if the eldest daughter Shirley hadn't come back in time to angrily kill the judge who broke into the shop, he, his wife, and even the two younger daughters would have probably died by the judge's knife .

   "Father, mother...how is it?"

  Holding the long sword, Shirley walked into the dilapidated house and came to her parents, her cold voice trembling slightly.

  Looking at the blood-stained maid skirt of the eldest daughter, old Frank sighed.

  He was about to answer, but Mina suddenly struggled to hold his hand, and said intermittently:

   "Frank, don't...leave me alone."

   "Quick...take Sally and Mary, get out of town..."

   "The Rose Society... has been judged, don't go to Shirley... and don't go to Lord Charlotte..."

   "That's going to get them in trouble..."

  Mina's consciousness is already a little unclear.

  She spoke intermittently, and her memory seemed to be still at the moment when the judge broke into the shop.

  Frank touched his wife's forehead. The severe injury and the rain had already given her a high fever.

  However, when fleeing for their lives, they dared not even light the torches.

  He knew his wife would not last long.

  I also know that I can't run too far in my current state.

   Taking a deep breath, he glanced at Shirley who entered the door, gritted his teeth and said:

   "Xue Li, take Sally and Mary and go to No. 17 Old Street, which is a shop of the family in the outer city."

   "Although the gate of the city is closed, you can't leave the city or enter the inner city, but there is very likely a way to contact Castel Manor."

   "I'm afraid Mina and I won't be able to hold on any longer. Take the two of them and go there... to seek the protection of the family!"

   "The judges who attacked the store are too strange. They are much earlier than the judge knights, and they don't wear iron chains, which shows that they are not real judges!"

   "This sacred judgment against the Rosary...someone is fishing in troubled waters!"

  However, after hearing what her father said, the girl did not move for a long time.

   "Shirley!"

   Frank repeated a little angrily.

  Shirley didn't answer, but silently rolled up her sleeves.

   On her wrist, there is an eagle-shaped bracelet.

  Frank was slightly taken aback.

  He recognized it. It was the magic bracelet of the Castel family, and it was also the symbol of Castel's core servants.

   There is only one function, which is used for positioning within a certain distance.

  In the past, almost everyone had core followers of the Castel family.

  When they were members of the mage group and the maid group, old Frank and Mrs. Mina also had it, but they took it back when they were kicked out of the family.

   Obviously, Castel attaches great importance to the group of Shirley, and has already tacitly accepted that they are the core followers in the future.

  However, several hours have passed since the earliest attack and killing, and the real divine judgment has been dispatched for half a day.

  Even they ran for a long time under the siege and interception of the real judging troops, and even fought more than once.

   But up to now, there is no news from the Castel family, which makes old Frank a little silent.

  There is so much commotion in the outer city, it is impossible for the Castel family not to know that something will happen to Rose.

   "Father, we have been abandoned once again."

   Shirley said softly.

   "No, it's impossible, the family must be entangled in something, maybe they are negotiating with the church now!"

   "Take Sally and Lisa with you!"

  Frank shook his head stubbornly, as if trying to convince himself.

  Xue Li still wanted to say something, but suddenly raised her sword and looked towards the courtyard outside the window.

  Accompanied by a loud bang, the gate of the courtyard was smashed open from the outside.

  The sound of messy footsteps came, and a flattering voice could be heard faintly:

   "Every...all adults..."

   "Those people entered this yard just now. They were all wounded and looked hurried. They must be evil members of the Rose Society!"

   "Hmm... yes, I can already smell the rosy smell on them, you are good!"

  A hoarse voice came over.

   "Then... my lord... can you let me go?"

   said cautiously in a flattering voice.

"sure."

  After the hoarse voice finished speaking, there was a sound of a long sword piercing the flesh from outside.

  Accompanied by a scream, the flattering voice completely disappeared.

   Dazzling lightning illuminated everything in the yard.

   Those who entered the yard were seven or eight figures in gray robes with iron chains on their hands and feet.

  They are the local judicial forces!

  Lightning illuminated the courtyard, as well as the house, and the figures of Shirley and the others.

  Through the dilapidated window, several cruel eyes looked over, one of them narrowed slightly:

   "I know them, old Frank and Mina, they were peripheral members of the Rosary Society as early as when I entered the Judgment Force."

   "That chick should be his daughter, and if I remember correctly, she is still a superhuman."

The judge headed by    sneered:

   "The trial knights said that all members of the Rosary Society and those who resist will be executed."

   "Looking at them like this, I'm afraid they have resisted less?"

   After finishing speaking, his expression turned cold, bloodthirsty excitement flashed in his eyes, and he said viciously:

   "Kill 'em!"

   After speaking, they drew their weapons and rushed to the hut.

  Xue Li also held the silver sword tightly.

  She stood at the door of the hut, her cold eyes seemed firm, like a knight guarding her family.

   The battle soon broke out between the girl and the judge.

  Xue Li didn't know how many times she had repelled these attacking judges.

   I don't know how many times these people rushed up in a swarm.

  Although they are both extraordinary, the sacred lock will limit the strength of the extraordinary after all, and these people are not her opponents.

   Even so, with their rich combat experience, these people can consume her bit by bit.

   There was a sharp pain in the lower left abdomen, and the judge's tricky sword left a sword wound on her body.

  Her maid uniform was torn, and the dripping blood had completely stained her clothes red.

  Shirley felt that her strength was getting weaker and weaker.

  However, the judges besieging her are still unhurried, even if the balance of victory is tilting towards them...

  They were teasing me, they were enjoying watching me weaken a little bit, they were waiting for me to fall by myself.

  Looking at those playful and excited gazes, Shirley quickly understood what the enemy meant.

   "Shirley! Go! Leave us alone!"

  Behind him, his father's anxious voice came.

  Shirley didn't move.

  My father and mother are behind me, as are my sisters, and she cannot abandon them.

   Even if the outcome of this battle is death, she will die with her family.

  The heavy rain poured down, and the dense rain dripped down the girl's cheeks.

  The grin of the enemy, the sore spots of the wound, the cold raindrops... made Shirley feel as if she had returned to that night ten years ago.

  On that rainy night, the parents who dedicated all their strength to Castel lost their power, but were kicked out of the manor.

  With a high fever, her whole body was sore, but she could only wander with her parents in the heavy rain, avoiding those enemies who dared not attack Castel, but dared to attack their servants who had been loyal to Castel.

  The good memories of being in the manor as a child are like a dream. When the value of use is lost, when Castel needs an object to vent his anger, the parents who have no strength become the victims.

   Castel abandoned them.

  The family that once called them a part of the family abandoned them.

   Ten years later, the Castel family found them again because Castel was also in crisis, and Castel needed new blood.

  How ironic.

  Abandon them when you don't need them, and remember them when you need them.

   And now, when the crisis came again, Castel really abandoned them again.

   Shirley doesn't know what mood she is in right now.

  Perhaps the warm smile of the young lady and the intimacy and slyness after the mischief in the past few days of getting along, also touched her heart faintly, and a flash of hope appeared inexplicably at a certain moment.

   Of course, it was just a flash.

   Castel is still that Castel after all.

  When the iron fist of the church came down, they still abandoned themselves after all.

   Shirley hates superpowers.

   Really hate superpowers.

  If the parents didn't have superpowers at the beginning, they might be able to be ordinary people in peace and stability, and wouldn't be absorbed by Castel as a core member, and eventually fall into the current fate.

  If she had no extraordinary power, perhaps her parents would not have hoped for her to return to Castel, but would leave Boulder with her to live a life of her own.

  However, at this moment Shirley is eager for extraordinary power.

  If she can be a little stronger, maybe she can defeat these enemies now, she can leave with her parents and sisters, leave here... never come back.

  Unfortunately...no if.

  The girl's strength gradually weakened, almost reaching the limit.

  Finally, she exhausted her last bit of strength, and the long sword in her hand was directly thrown away by the attacking judge.

  The judge kicked over and kicked Xue Li's lower abdomen. She couldn't help but sprayed a mouthful of blood donation, and fell directly to the ground, unable to get up again.

   "Shirley!"

  Behind him, his father exclaimed anxiously.

  Xue Li saw her father struggling and running over with his seriously injured body, protecting her.

   Just like when I was a child...

   "It's a touching father-daughter relationship..."

  The judge walked over with a smirk.

   Their expressions were ferocious, no different from before they became judges, and some of them only had the iron shackles of the holy royal court on their hands and feet.

   But obviously, the iron shackles are not able to save the girl and her family.

  They are a group of mad dogs raised by the church.

   Now, they are released.

  The judge raised his long sword high and looked at Sydney and old Frank with indifference.

  In the room, accompanied by the judge who rushed in, the crying of the sisters became louder and louder.

  Looking at the icy long sword, Xue Li gently closed her eyes, feeling a trace of despair in her heart.

ended.

everything is over.

  However, at the moment when the long sword was about to pierce Old Frank's chest, accompanied by the sound of piercing through the air, a crossbow bolt flew out and directly hit the judge's head.

  The crossbow bolt was so powerful that it directly flew the judge out, staggered a few steps and then fell to the ground without a sound.

  Among the torrential rain, the dilapidated hut suddenly ushered in a burst of silence.

   And followed by an immature and cold female voice:

   "Guys, try again with those who dare to touch me."

  The evening update may be a little later.

   I changed some of the plots in chapters 57-59 yesterday, but it doesn't affect the overall situation. The main reason is to modify the motivation of the servants' return to make the plot more reasonable.
