Ephemeral clouds and works

Chapter 717: Effective Action

    

erful aura. They were all battle-hardened veterans, so the two soldiers guarding the checkpoint immediately stepped forward and saluted."Have your lieutenants come to see me."One of the female guards,...I got it!

Lances figure flashed, appearing on the first floor of the bar. He saw Ripples sitting at the counter with an iron box in her hand. A vacuum zone formed around her as everyone smelled the familiar metallic scent of blood.

Lance walked over with a smile, sat down across from Ripples, and had the bartender bring two drinks for them before speaking.

"Miss Ripple, it's so nice to see you again! I sent someone to look for you last night, but the hotel you were staying at was surrounded by police, and they even put out a message saying they were looking for you. Are you alright"

"Oh! I expected the lab people wouldn't let me go easily, but I didn't expect them to not even give you face."

The ripples, after receiving the drinks passed over, smiled softly and spoke.

"True, but we are a minority after all. In their case with abundant evidence, I cannot do anything openly. However, I sent someone to find you privately. Did you not meet him"

"Count Lance, I wonder if you're referring to these three people. If so, I have to question your intentions, my lord."

Ripple raised her hand and patted the metal box next to her, calmly saying.

"Miss Ripple, what do you mean"

"I think we should find a different place to talk, after all, some secrets aren't convenient to reveal right now."

Liàn Yī said very confidently.

"Come with me!"

After the words were spoken, the two vanished on the first floor, leaving those who had been watching them dumbfounded.

Now it can be told.

Count Lance was also a little curious, so he urged.

But ripples wasn't in a hurry. She pushed the metal box between the two of them and opened it directly. The contents inside immediately came into Lance's eyes, his eyes instantly turning red.

"What's going on"

"I told you there were artificial vampires infiltrating our clan, didn't the Count half-believe me Today I happened to run into one and brought back the evidence. And these artificial vampires actually found me before the Count's progeny, which shows how deeply they've infiltrated."

Ripples said coldly.

Lance's eyes grew even redder, he reached out and grabbed a heart, tearing the chip off its surface. The next second, the heart exploded.

Ripple didn't want to get splashed with blood, so she dodged immediately from her current position. Looking at Count Lance who had just burst three hearts in a row, she felt the other party's anger level was rising.

"It's despicable, to attempt to control our vampire clan with such methods!"

Lance smashed the table to pieces before gritting his teeth and speaking.

"My Lord, now is not the time for anger. First, we must remove all the nails that humans have driven in."

These vampires, whether artificial or lower-ranking vampires captured and controlled by them, would inflict immense harm upon our clan, especially those who have infiltrated the vampire sanctuary.

Ripple reminded her at the right time.

"Vampire Holy Land," the five words instantly defused Lance's anger. He nodded and said:

"You're right, now is not the time to be angry. I need to get this message back as soon as possible and then start pulling out the nails."

The Earl's Tavern is a gathering place. Anyone looking to gather intel would send people here, and now I happen to be here.

We can start here, discreetly sifting through the crowd. Otherwise, if those artificial vampires sense something is off, they'll definitely hide. They might even have humans as cover, making it even harder to find them later.

Of course, I am willing to be the first to accept the screening.

Ripple first proved her innocence, after all, her heart didn't have that deadly chip installed.

All of this is thanks to the timing of her entering this body. The original soul was almost at the point of failure in its transformation, but her arrival allowed it to proceed smoothly, although not completely. That's why the chip hasn't been installed yet.

Once she received and successfully transformed her memories, she started causing trouble. The people in the lab were naturally unable to control her, nor did they have the ability to implant a chip in her, so she is now a free vampire.

Since the ripples' method proved effective and reliable, Count Lance had no objections.

A security scanner silently replaced the bar's door, checking everyone's heartbeats without them even realizing it.

Lance had nearly daily harvests until a month later, when the other party seemed to notice that their dispatched agents were gradually losing contact. Only then did the artificial vampires stop coming to the bar.

After Earl Lance captured these people, he would arrange for his offspring to interrogate them separately in order to extract more information. He wouldn't rush to put them to death. After all, according to Ripple's words, the chip was like a signal transmitter. If an artificial vampire died, the person on the other end of the detection would definitely notice, which would alert the enemy.

Since there are no more questions to ask, everything has been settled.

Count Lanse looked at the data in his hands and said to Ollie.

Are they all dead

"Do I still have to teach you that"

Lance said unpleasantly.

"Yes!"

Allie immediately bowed her head in response, then with a flash of her form, she went into the basement.

Ripples has been living it up these days because of Count Lance's approval. She's gotten a taste of the glamorous life, and on the day of her weakness in a month, she managed to avoid it by using the excuse of capturing a rogue artificial vampire who sensed something was wrong. Her next weakness period won't be for another year, so she's safe for now.

But a year later, on that same day, the werewolf Tyler had calculated his time to strike her, so she wasn't in any hurry to leave the bar.

"Ripple, get ready. I'm taking you back to see Lord Patte."

"Right now"

"Yes, let's leave now. My message got back in time. The Holy Land has found some traitors and dealt with them. Combined with what I found, going back now is perfect. You deserve the most credit for this."

Lancelot laughed and said.

"No, Count Lance. These are all thanks to your efforts. If you hadn't trusted my words and arranged for an investigation, we wouldn't have this harvest today."

Ripples never take credit for themselves, so they say very humbly.

"Haha! Everyone can see your contributions. Perhaps the Marquis will let you lead a portion of the troops, and then we'll still have opportunities to cooperate."

Ripples smiled humbly and got into the car headed for the vampire sanctuary. Finally, she could get to the core. But she hadn't been able to contact Stone Mill, which made her feel very strange.

The Time Management Bureau's stone mill was anxiously watching the maintenance department personnel repair its working panel.

"Master, when will it be fixed"

"What's the rush I'm checking. Your work system was infiltrated, so the firewall automatically activated. It shut down forcibly until the intrusion program could be eliminated."

The repairman held up a transparent panel in his hands, tapping it here and there while frowning as he explained.

"No wonder the last message I sent to the tasker was wrong. I must contact her as soon as possible."

Then you'd best go find your supervisor, they can enable the backup workstation.the Spirit Realm together."But this time your beloved's cultivation regressed, and you unjustly blamed me without discerning right from wrong. I tried to explain that it wasn't me, but you didn't beli...
