Ephemeral clouds and works

Chapter 658 You're Helpless

    

ell of blood immediately lowered their flags and silently retreated into the depths of the forest, disappearing."Humph!"The leader, a white bear-man, only let out a cold snort. He didn't mind turning...The ripple's scream was too shrill, too loud. Unless someone was deaf, they would have surely heard it. Immediately after, almost all the doors to the guest rooms swung open. These female players seemed prepared, dressed in clothes that allowed for easy movement, a stark contrast to Ripple who was still wearing her silk slip dress.

And the monster, who had been kicked out the door, shook his head and got back up. He realized he'd been exposed, so he bared his teeth, revealing a set of sharp, white fangs and dribbling saliva – a truly terrifying sight. Then, with a clear target in mind, he leaped towards Ripple.

Ripples ran barefoot down the hallway, shouting:

"Help! Help! There's a monster!!!"

Ripple led the monster past almost all the rooms before doing a backflip over its head. The creature stopped quickly and lunged at Ripple's waist with lightning speed, apparently intending to rip her in half.

The ripples weren't slow either, the deadly silk on her wrist had already wrapped around the monster's neck. In her hand now was a cleaver, acquired from the Rakshasa woman herself.

As the monster's claws tore through Ripples' sleeping gown, its own claw was severed by her blade. Ripples landed gracefully, and in that same moment, the Death Silk sliced clean through the monster's head.

After its head fell, it rolled to the edge of Ripples' feet. She promptly plunged it into the ground with her cleaver, and the headless body took two more steps before collapsing with a thud.

Such a commotion attracted nearly everyone, including Henry and Lacey, as well as the staff of the old castle.

Henry and Lacey were also in pajamas, apparently having gotten up straight from bed. They arrived just in time to see Ripple swiftly sever the monster's hand and head with her blade.

"Miss Ripples, what's going on"

A female player was the first to ask Ripples about this, because Ripples was simply too capable. She was incredibly skilled and ruthless in her attacks. They couldn't help but know who she was, especially since their opponent seemed disheveled, yet unharmed. In fact, they cleanly disposed of a monster with no trouble at all.

“I have no idea what happened. I was woken up by the noise from next door yesterday, so I didn't get a good rest. I went to bed early tonight, but in the middle of the night, a paw reached out from the portrait on my headboard and scared the living daylights out of me! Then I ran out and called for help!”

After Ripple finished speaking, she frowned slightly and said, displeased:

"You all came out, why are you just watching the commotion and not helping me That monster ripped my nightgown."

After saying that, she also touched her ripped nightgown.

"You're so capable, you don't even need our help! I guess you want us to see what you've got then!"

Someone shouted loudly.

Henry and Lacey exchanged a glance and immediately walked over, interrupting the two parties who were about to continue their tense standoff.

"Miss Ripple, are you alright"

Henry asked with concern, his gaze sweeping over the head at Ripple's feet and the monster's body five paces away.

"Something's wrong! Mr. Henry, how are you going to compensate me There was a monster that eats people in my room! If it weren't for my nerves being so fragile that I wake up at the slightest sound, you'd be preparing my body for burial tomorrow!"

The ripples said angrily.

Then, grabbing the passing Lacey, she complained:

"Lacy, please help me up, my legs are weak!"

"What can Lacey say, she could only avoid that head planted in the ground, holding onto Ripple and soothingly comforting her: "

"Miss Ripple, please don't be angry. We don't want this to happen either, but the castle is in a special location, so wild monkeys from the forest often rush into the castle."

But before the banquet for distinguished guests, the castle guards had already gone through it once. Unexpectedly, there were still fish that slipped through the net, startling you. Don't worry, Henry brother will definitely give you an explanation.

Reece's soothing words worked, and Ripple stopped talking. She just stared at Henry.

Henry walked over and looked at the so-called "monkey" that had been beheaded. He said to the male servant who stood respectfully beside him:

"Come on, get that monkey's body out of here before you scare away my guests."

"Yes!"

The male servant immediately stepped forward, preparing to move the monkey's body.

Ripples also reached out and drew the cleaver from the giant head. She then, with great disgust, ordered the male servant to take the head away first. She herself walked to the side of the monster's body and said in a slightly puzzled tone:

This monster doesn't look like a horse monkey at all! Its mouth is too long, looking more like a wolf's, but its body resembles a human's, just with thicker fur.

"Miss Ripple, please be careful. Let the servants move him first so you're not frightened."

Henry walked over and said in a low voice.

The ripple suddenly grabbed Henry's wrist and said:

Caution!

Then, while pulling the opponent back, the Death Thread shot into the monster's heart, instantly shattering its heart. As everyone watched, the monster's body turned to ashes.

Henry and Lacey's faces changed, a red light flashing in their eyes, gone in an instant.

"Mr. Henry, are you alright! That was too dangerous just now, I didn't expect that thing to be severed and still have a beating heart! Luckily I reacted quickly, otherwise we both would have been in danger."

Ripple stared at Henry's eyes, giving him a look that said "How could you possibly thank me"

"It's all my fault, I reacted too slowly and even had to be saved by Miss Ripples. This is my mistake."

Henry immediately said.

Lace instinctively took a step back, seeming somewhat afraid of the ripples.

The reactions of these three people fell into the eyes of the players, and they seemed to smell a conspiracy.

"To everyone's surprise, please return to your rooms for rest. I will take someone to check the castle again and make sure nothing like this happens."

Henry immediately waved his hand, arranging for people to start checking each room. Once he was satisfied everything was in order, he told them to return to their rooms, while Ripple declared she was determined not to go back to her previous one.

The door was gone, and she had no idea where the monster came from. She requested a new room or to share with Lacey.

"My heart is still racing! I'd rather stay with Miss Lacey."

"This"

Before Henry could speak, Ripples took Lacey's arm and said with a smile:

"Lucy, you won't refuse me, will you!"

Ok then!

Lacey felt like the other person was about to break her arm, she could only reluctantly agree.

"Great! Let's go!"

The ripples impatiently dragged Lacey to another new guest room, and once inside, she shut the door.

As the door closed, the deadly threads of Ripples shot into Lacey's chest, wrapping around her heart. Lacey stumbled and fell to her knees.

"Miss Lacey, please answer my question again: What is on the third floor of the castle"

Reecy's face was pale as she stared at the ripples, a flicker of fear in her eyes.

The third floor is where all the members of the Dracula family sleep.

How many people

Over a hundred!

Why choose slumber

"For a longer life!"to negotiate a surrender. Not everyone is willing to leave their homeland, you see I think we should find a way to get our hands on the defensive plans of Pingbei City and prepare for all eventualitie...
