Chapter 656: Hybrid Monster

g backwards.The 獨 transformed into a giant black snake. Its tail swept through the air, sending two people flying. It then coiled around one beastman while the other was frantically struggling as its...The one whose body and head were separated was the hunchbacked gardener who had been tending to the rose garden during the day. Only now, his head was struggling to move towards his separated body, trying to get back onto it. The other's mouth made a "huffing" sound, clearly a monster.

Ripples stood barefoot on the ground, her deadly silk on her wrist struck again, this time directly splitting the opponent's body into several pieces. However, the other party stubbornly stitched themselves back together, as if they had immortality.

But ripples' eyes were bright, she discovered that after being cut several times by the deadly silk, although her body could still stick together, its size was shrinking. The once three-meter-tall gardener was recovering to the hunched form she had seen during the day.

The ripples on his wrist turned, mimicking the previous movements. He repeated this five times. After that, the flower merchant Gude’s face returned to its daytime appearance. He looked at Ripples with a hint of fear. The next second, a transparent thread shot into his chest, wrapping around his heart. This time, he was truly terrified.

"Please forgive me!"

If your answer satisfies me, I will consider it.

The ripples touched the deadly thread with her fingertips and said in a soft voice.

"Everything's fine! Miss, may I ask you something"

"What are you Besides the guests, what kind of monsters are there in Dracula's castle"

"We are the descendants of vampires and werewolves, because we are mixed blood, so we are not accepted by either race. For centuries, we have only been able to live independently in Dracula's Castle."

"Well, well, looks like we have a mixed breed here!"

Ripple scoffed.

Good clearly felt the ripples' contempt, he was about to bare his teeth when his heart was yanked, almost causing him to die on the spot. He immediately clamped his mouth shut.

"Are you inviting so many people to the castle just because Henry is choosing a wife"

The ripples continued to ask.

"This is true, because of our strength, even ordinary women who give birth to our offspring will ultimately escape the fate of death. Therefore, every hundred years, we must choose a woman strong enough to bear children for the Dracula family."

What about those that are not strong enough

Liàn yī mí zhe yǎn wèn dào.

They will become our food.

As soon as the good words fell, he felt his heart being tugged. He directly curled up on the ground, letting out a groan of pain.

"After death, the bones become fertilizer for red roses, don't you think"

With a dangerous glint in her eyes, Lian Yi said.

"Yes yes"

Good immediately said.

When Lian Yi saw the red roses during the day, she detected the resentment emanating from them. Her nose was especially sensitive; even the rich fragrance of the flowers couldn't mask the stench of decay.

There was a ghostly face on the red rose Good had specially picked for her. The reason she didn't take it, but instead turned around and gave it to Lacey, was to test her reaction.

Of course, Lacey knew the origin of the red roses, which is why she so readily declined. She found it troublesome and simply found an excuse to change rooms. But after changing rooms, the painting still hanging above her bed reminded her that some things couldn't be avoided just by trying to hide from them.

So she waited calmly, wondering what would come out of the painting.

You are hybrids, you should possess the advantages of both sides, like speed, strength, and lifespan. Why are you hiding in here

The ripples continued to ask.

Although we are not afraid of the sun and possess strong regenerative abilities, we do not have long lifespans. After reaching our prime, we age rapidly. That's why we choose to continue our bloodline through human women.

Good paused here, his eyes flickering for a moment as if concealing something.

"So each portrait in a room is your special passage, then"

Ripples raised an eyebrow and asked.

"Yes, this is "

Before Good could finish his words, Ripple turned her wrist, slicing through his heart. Good instantly turned to ash and vanished from the room.

At the same time, a scream of "Ah!" came from her room next door, something happened again.

This is also the reason why Lian's ripples decisively ended Gude's life. She felt that Gude wasn't telling the truth, and she only believed part of what he said. About the fact that the master of Dracula's castle was a hybrid, she believed it.

Through her two days of observation, she had already discovered some problems. The portraits of people in the hallways and rooms were too lifelike, as if they were real.

There's also the food, which is bloody meat with hardly any vegetables. As the master, Henry keeps professing his love to her, as if he wants some kind of commitment from her. Plus, the red roses thriving on the corpses and the ancient castle walls that prevent anyone from leaving all point to something strange happening here.

Especially the screams that lasted for two consecutive nights, alluding to the unsettling atmosphere of the castle at night. Someone was dying every night, but every day new people arrived, cycling endlessly, just like a closed loop.

Another set of footsteps could be heard outside the door, along with someone opening it and asking questions. Ripples only listened for a moment, then looked at the portrait on her bedside table that had lost its luster. A sneer curled up the corner of her lips. She would deal with all this one by one.

The next day, ripples still slept until she woke naturally. This time, no one came to call her. She picked a red off-shoulder long dress at random from the closet and put it on. After dressing up, she went downstairs directly towards the restaurant.

Every servant she encountered on the road would sidestep and bow to her, and when she appeared at the restaurant, all the diners at the table fell silent, staring at her with strange eyes. Lian Ri raised an eyebrow and walked straight past them.

"Miss Ripple, did you sleep well last night"

Henry's expression remained unchanged, and he still asked with a warm tone.

"Not too good, I was woken up by screams in the middle of the night again, so I overslept today. What happened this time"

Ripple sat directly across from Henry and casually asked,

"Something happened to Lorraine who lives across from you."

Lacey whispered.

What's wrong with her

She was found strangled to death in her own room.

"Did you find any suspicious people this time"

Ripples asked.

Lacey glanced at Ripples, wanting to speak but hesitating. If she weren't blind, everyone would understand what she meant.

"Looking at Miss Lacey's expression, it seems she doubts me."

Liàn yī said nonchalantly.

"Don't you doubt who you suspect Only you and Rowling had an argument during the day."

Someone immediately spoke up.

"Who is Rowling I don't know who she is. Do I need to kill someone for a few words What benefit would killing her bring me"

"Do you want to be the future mistress of Dracula's castle, and I don't As for your accusations, what evidence do you have"

The ripple emoji asked the woman who had just yelled at her earlier.

"I saw it!"

The woman gritted her teeth and said, as if she wouldn't rest until the murderer was blamed on Ripples.

"Is that so"

Ripples stood up directly and walked slowly to the side of the woman who claimed to have seen her murder someone. She said in a kind voice:

I'm not one to hide a murder, it goes against my style.

As she spoke, she snapped the woman's neck with a single hand.

"Ah!!!". If humans come with representatives to exchange resources, don't agree. At an appropriate time, you can let them see what we have made ourselves."The ripples cautioned."You don't need to worry about...
