Chapter 1032 Castle

Tao Ran set off to the place designated by Elizabeth.

In fact, Tao Ran has studied this place many times based on the information given by Mr. Bai.

Çakhedis Castle—Elizabeth’s home in the story, is located near a small border village in present-day Slovakia.

The past has not been easy.

More than ten hours of flight, two hours of car ride, and then a long walk.

The castle stands on a cliff nearly 400 meters high and is a landmark building covering hundreds of miles.

When Tao Ran saw the castle in the distance, his heart began to beat faster.

Uneasiness, disgust, flinching and fear... are all instinctive and come from the discomfort of the blood.

The ruins of ancient castles from the Middle Ages; the cold towers stained with blood that once imprisoned a large number of innocent men and women; the outer walls of the castle entangled in circles of withered vines... all look desolate, desolate and gloomy, making people very uncomfortable.

As mentioned in the information, this place is not only remote but also deserted.

Looking at the past, only scattered residential houses can be seen occasionally.

Various legends and history mean that there are not many residents here and even fewer tourists...

Tao Ran walked all the way to the foot of the mountain where the castle was located, without meeting a single local pedestrian.

Tao Ran waited until noon, when the sun was at its strongest, to start going up the mountain.

This is what Mr. Bai also warned.

No matter how arrogant the vampires are, they still don't like the sun, and are even afraid of it. Elizabeth is no exception. In her semi-sealed state, she would never take the risk of making an action at such a taboo time.

Noon is when the vampires are at their weakest.

It is absolutely safe to go up the mountain at this time.

The temperature in Europe at the end of April is not low, and the sunlight is warm, but the sun-drenched mountaintops are still cold and humid. The warm spring breeze here also brings a bit of coldness and bitingness, making people shiver unconsciously.

Perhaps this uncomfortable feeling is also the reason why there are so few tourists here?

There were only ruins left in the entire castle. Tao Ran gradually walked in, combining the layout of the place with the illusion in his memory. It's quite strange, because of Mr. Bai's story, Elizabeth's fantasy, and blood connection, this place gives her a great sense of familiarity. Some pictures flashed before my eyes from time to time.

Although she has never been there, she seems to be able to sense the real scenes from hundreds of years ago wherever she goes.

The lines on the walls, the bloodstains on the handmade carpets, the marks on the murals, the dents in the silverware, the fragrance of roses, the mellowness of the wine, the whispers of the guests, and even the butler curtsying in front... are all so clear.

The butler walked up to Tao Ran and presented him with a tray. On the tray was a silver engraved wine glass with garnet red wine swaying in it.

Tao Ran smiled and remained silent. He ignored the butler and continued to move forward.

But the housekeeper suddenly became violent.

Tao Ran sensed the wind beside her and immediately moved out of the way. When she turned around, she saw the butler pouring the wine on the tray at her.

He pulled out the top-notch dagger and with a casual wave, the poured wine appeared.

Undoubtedly, the black dog's blood, which has strong anti-evil effects, played a role.

The environment was distorted, the gorgeous space disappeared, and it returned to the shabby ruins again.

The butler threw the floor where the wine was.

Crawling all over the ground are centipedes, scorpions and poisonous insects.

Looking around, there are at least hundreds of them.

Tao Ran stood still and watched coldly.

She allowed these dirty things to surround her and gradually narrowed the circle.

However, when they were thirty centimeters away from her, these poisonous things could no longer get closer. These densely packed little things were running around all over the floor, squeezing each other, as if there was a safety line in front of Tao Ran that they could not get past.

Tao Ran was satisfied.

She strode forward, still the same. The poisonous insects in front were obviously extremely anxious, and they kept crowding forward, wanting to eat her immediately. But not only could they not get up, they also involuntarily made way for her.

In fact, this is also the reason why Tao Ran came to "explore the road".

She wanted to see with her own eyes whether her Eastern "civilization" could really restrain the Western "evil".

If Tao Ran dares to come, he is well prepared.

After leaving one's own country, the natural national restrictions disappear. She was afraid that if she didn't have enough mental strength, she would be pulled into the illusion again by Elizabeth, and her hard work would be ruined in one day.

So under her invisible coat, she not only wore the offensive bonus underwear she brought back from the survival game, but she also had hundreds of talismans affixed to the inner layer of the underwear.

Talismans to ward off evil spirits, peace talismans, demon-suppressing talismans, evil-relieving talismans, plague-repelling talismans, exorcism talismans... In all the ancient books she collected, she had pasted all the similar talismans mentioned in them.

It turns out, it works.

This fragment of ruins is at the highest point of the mountain and is not suitable for insects, birds and beasts to survive. But there are so many poisonous insects here, and the illusion and the housekeeper just now are obviously caused by the evil spirit of this area.

The illusion was broken, the butler disappeared, and the poisonous insects could not get close, which showed that the restraint effect had appeared.

very good!

The talisman is effective against demonic energy, and I think it will be no exception for Elizabeth...

I just didn’t expect that hundreds of years later, the evil spirit here would still be so strong!

It was not advisable to stay in a place like this for a long time. After Tao Ran understood this in his heart, he left quickly.

She didn't want to stay in the small village here, so she went to a nearby town.

She deliberately stayed in a hotel closest to the church and booked a room on the highest floor.

She was still afraid that Elizabeth would play tricks on her or drag her into a fantasy world.

Light restrains evil and remains unchanged forever. Use the light of the church to protect yourself. Safety is the top priority.

After entering the room, locking the door, pasting a few talismans, and setting up the simplest formation, Tao Ran waited.

She didn't know what to do, so she just waited for Mr. Bai or Elizabeth to take the initiative to contact her.

Because he was too close to Elizabeth, Tao Ran was afraid that his ability would be exposed, so he did not practice any training or the Dragon Song Technique, but simply meditated and practiced internal skills.

Before I knew it, the sun was setting.

Tao Ran opened his eyes suddenly.

She sensed that the formation was fluctuating.

As expected, the sun went down and Elizabeth came to force her into the dreamland.

Tao Ran was already prepared. She pointed a super bright flashlight out of the window and projected it out.

This was another reason why Tao Ran chose the churchside hotel.

Her beam of light hit the cross on top of the church opposite.

The cross was illuminated, projecting a warm light.

The power of the church cleanses away evil spirits.

Tao Ran's room faced the cross and was immediately enveloped in gentle holy light...

The air fluctuated, and the previous movement suddenly disappeared.

Elizabeth failed.

Six hours later at midnight, Elizabeth could still only appear in Tao Ran's dream.

"What's going on? What are you hiding from me?" Elizabeth bared her teeth.

"I came here as you requested, what else can I hide from you?" Tao Ran was not afraid at all.

"I asked you to come to the castle, why did you live in a small town? Why don't you live near the castle? Why are you so close to the church? What are your intentions!"

"I didn't have any intention, I was just scared." Tao Ran admitted proactively: "I went to your castle today, and then I was scared. The castle area made me very uncomfortable, so I had no choice but to stay away. I felt uneasy, so I stayed in the church Opposite. The church gives me peace of mind, it’s more comfortable here.”

Tao Ran had already thought of his words.
