Chapter 572: Hyperion's Merit Deduction Is Successful

At dawn, the front of the Demon Realm Palace was already brightly lit, with light and shadow interweaving.

Countless palace servants and guards were busy making final preparations for the upcoming visit of the vampire envoy Count Sergio.

The gate of the palace was open, and the endless front square was covered with steps. The floating lights seemed to welcome the distinguished southern vampire guests.

The construction history of the square in front of the Naikalis Palace can be traced back to thousands of years ago. At that time, Naika Island and Lis Island had not yet separated and were surrounded by the breath of purgatory. As the sea water extinguished the lava and caused crustal changes, it gradually became a prosperous new capital.

With the application of magic spells and the unremitting efforts of craftsmen, the naturally undulating terrain not only supports the entire front square and the palace at the top, but also makes it show the unique architectural art and structural style of the demons.

After countless years of changes and multiple expansions, today's square in front of the Naikalis Palace has become the center of politics, culture and power in the demon world.

Many reporters and dignitaries from the demon world were waiting in the square, and demon shadows were also surging on the streets outside, wanting to see whether the blood clan detective would stir up a bloody storm in the demon king's city Nakalis today.

"Your Highness, I know you have an old grudge with the blood clan, but please pay attention to your identity."

Located in the center of the square in front of the palace, Lord Fallen Kaliela stood beside Hyperion and reminded him gently.

"...I understand."

Huprienne wore a silver crown symbolizing royal power, and her light blue crystal skirt was like the brightest star in the night sky. She had a cold face and responded with certainty.

Huprienne could see Lord Fallen closing his eyes with an attitude of not caring about anything, and Lord Fallen's face looked similar to Tata in Hyperion's eyes, which made Hyperion not hate her.

It was too cunning to let the other party see that she was the other party's favorite female appearance.

After spending some time with Lord Fallen, Hyperion understood that this ninth-rank demon seemed polite, but in fact he was a smiling tiger who would not tolerate anyone questioning him.

Lord Fallen did protect her, but this was completely different from the care Tata and the Ice Witch showed her.

To Lord Fallen, she was just a priceless and fragile doll.

However, the grudge that Lord Fallen was referring to must be the incident in this shadow world when she was almost killed by the vampires at Lichtens Castle on the border of the Horning Empire sixteen years ago.

As the eclipse-like sky descended, the grand occasion in front of the Demon Realm Palace reached its peak.

The alternation of the sun and the moon in the sky formed a strange and spectacular scene. With a sun that was obscured, the sky showed a deep dark purple.

Just as all the demons' eyes were focused on Princess Hyperion on the steps of the palace, a black magic vehicle drove over from the road in the distance. The exterior was decorated with blood-red patterns, and it was even customized for vampire VIPs.

It stopped in the square, causing a low voice of discussion.

Today is the princess's first public appearance, and she will fully demonstrate her ability to handle the affairs of the demon world.

Whether she is a pure shield for the Fallen Lord, or a young prince who has inherited the blood of the demon king and is deep-minded, it depends on how she confronts the blood clan detective Count Sergio today.

The dark magic device slowly opened, and a man wearing the noble costumes of the southern Horning Empire stepped out.

His appearance immediately attracted everyone's attention.

This tall man with a straight figure, black hair and red eyes is obviously the blood clan envoy Count Sergio.

Behind the count, the accompanying demon army guards followed in unison.

He looked at the sky and walked quickly, not wanting to waste any time.

"Princess Hyperion, on behalf of the blood clan, I thank you for your hospitality."

Count Sergio stepped onto the steps, came to the princess, and simply saluted her.

"Welcome to the visit of Your Excellency Sergio."

Hyperion had an elegant smile on her face, but her eyes were full of scrutiny of the visitor.

Hyperion was annoyed when she saw the blood clan.

The reason why her father, Duke Migaiya, disappeared was because of the vampires. The last time Tata was injured in Nanwantina, it was also the vampires behind the scenes.

She could actually say that she hated the vampires.

However, at this moment, she had to pretend to be a dignified demon princess, cater to the vampire envoy, and smile at him.

"Excuse me, is there anything I can help you with?"

Huparian asked politely.

The Ice Witch teacher taught her that as a spy, she must always remain calm. At this moment, she needs to play the role of a calm and decent princess, as calm as the Ice Witch teacher, and not be swayed by her inner emotions.

Of course, she is indeed a princess, and there is no need to pretend.

"Your Highness, just provide convenience and assist my investigation when I seek help. Please do not interfere in other matters."

Count Sergio smiled vaguely, his voice low and magnetic.

In fact, everyone knows the positions of both parties. The more help this princess gives, the more likely it is that she will do harm.

"I won't waste any more time. I will solve the case soon."

Count Sergio raised his index finger confidently and pointed at all the demons watching around him, adding.

His gesture was like telling the murderer that no matter who you are hiding in the city of Naikalis, you will be caught immediately.

This aura made the atmosphere in the entire square in front of the palace tense. Even under the magic screen broadcasting the scene, the demon residents couldn't help but raise their heads and look at the vampire detective who was the center of attention.

"Then I wish you all the best."

Hyperion nodded and folded her hands in front of her, maintaining a waiting attitude.

As a vampire detective with a 100% crime detection rate, Hyperion believed that it would not take long for the other party to successfully find the murderer in Necalis.

Once you let Detective Count Sergio complete his reasoning and find all the evidence, fast forward to the trial phase.

These are inevitable.

But Hyperion prepared multiple countermeasures overnight.

She has a way to create obstacles for Count Sergio at every step. Then the Fallen Lord's men will naturally try their best to destroy the evidence. All she needs to do is to hold Count Sergio back on the surface and predict his actions and his actions. If you want something, you can't let him solve the case in a matter of minutes by playing a game with him.

And no matter what, Lan Qi taught her how to deal with the prosecutor's offensive when she was about to lose.

Just slam the table hard.

The judge will determine that the defendant is too emotional and needs to adjourn the court and take her out to adjust.

Since it will be at the home court of the Demon Realm, the operating space will be larger.

The reception ceremony continued solemnly in the art-rich square in front of the palace. On both sides were ancient demon sculptures and magnificent flower beds. Each flower was a unique species of the demon world, exuding a psychedelic fragrance under the dim light of the solar eclipse.

The military guards stood in line on the stone steps, wearing silver and black armor, holding magic weapons, and the armor was engraved with majestic and solemn magic patterns.

At the top of the steps, Princess Hyperion and a group of demon nobles finally finished greeting the vampire envoy Count Sergio.

"Can I start the investigation? Your Highness, Princess?"

asked Count Sergio.

If you use the vampire power rashly in the capital of Nekalis without the permission of the demon world, it may cause suppression by the city defense barrier.

"certainly."

Hyperion glanced sideways at Lord Fallen and replied to Count Sergio, the vampire envoy.

"Please wait until I find the murderer, and Her Royal Highness the Princess will fully cooperate with my investigation. Otherwise, it will be quite troublesome if I cannot return to the Huoning Empire to make a reasonable report to the ancestors."

Count Sergio stared at Hyperion.

"nature."

Hyperion agreed.

"Um."

Count Sergio was satisfied.

If a high-ranking demon murderer is caught and the evidence is solid, their vampire clan can make the demons compromise further in a new peace negotiation.

This time, his mission is not only to catch the murderer and try to weaken the demons' voice at the negotiation table, but also to let the demons see the royal family's attitude of treating the vampires as dogs.

This little princess is undoubtedly a mental layman.

Too immature.

Count Sergio saw it easily.

She may be born smart, but she has too little experience and has not experienced life and death.

No matter how excessive his demands are later, he will force the princess to agree and carry out a step-by-step trial.

It doesn't matter how long it takes to catch the murderer. If the princess wants to delay, just let her delay. Everything is under his control. The key is that in the process, he will wear away the princess' dignity and let her understand that today's demon world is different from theirs. The stance of the vampires.

Count Sergio muttered a spell in Vampire language in a low voice, activating his power [Blood Coordinates].

In the foggy and humid square in front of the palace in the early morning, the vampire detective Sergio's eyes quietly walked through the shadows, his blood-red eyes shining faintly under the dim sky.

This Demon King's City is a gathering place for the great dignitaries of the demon world. It is a lair filled with demonic magic. Every trace of magic is clearly visible.

Soon, soon he would find where the murderer was.

Whoever has a red light on his head is the murderer.

After getting the answer, what follows is just a process of testimony without any suspense.

As the spell ended, a trace of red magic leaked from his eyes, floating like mist, and his eyes were also shrouded in a layer of scarlet.

""

Count Sergio seemed to have a buzz in his head and froze on the spot.

In an instant, he saw that most of the demon dignitaries in the entire Demon City began to emit a strange red light!

And he didn't know why, when those demons with red lights on their heads looked at him, they seemed to be swallowing saliva subconsciously.

The light was like the color of solidified blood, bright and chilling, and Sergio felt an unprecedented sense of fear in his heart.

After all, how much Count Gregory's blood was stained to give it this color!
