The dragon slaying incident had passed a year and a half ago, during which the Duchy of Sapphire issued a Pioneer Mandate and was preparing to launch a second one; everything seed unaffected.
However, unforeseen by many, Liszt once again beca entangled in the aftermath of the dragon slaying incident.
A Dragon Knight on active duty from the Eagle Kingdom, Marquis Alonso Xiankelai, sent his vampire servant to Iron Hoof Island to search for the missing Goat Assembly's Grand Magician and to inquire about the true reality behind the original dragon slaying incident—it seed that during the dragon slaying incident, he was the shadow behind the Marquis of Bull.
Unfortunately.
Elizabeth Black Knight was only a mixed-blood vampire, transford into a vampire from her human form by the pureblood vampire Tuobert Black Knight. In her own words, during the day she was on the level of a common magician, as sunlight caused severe disruption to her blood magic.
In the dark of night, the power of blood magic significantly increased, and her strength could reach that of a Grand Magician.
And as a bat, she could stealthily infiltrate many places and quietly complete missions.
"Tuobert is a core mber of the Black Knight family, his wife is a native pureblood vampire, and he is a foreign pureblood vampire who transford from human and gradually attained pureblood status. In the night, his strength is approximately that of a Completion Level Sky Knight," Elizabeth explained in detail.
Vampires could be described as a caster profession, but also as a completely new species.
Most vampires are mixed-blood, humans transford through rituals to replenish the vampire numbers.
The core vampire circle is very small, primarily family-based, consisting entirely of purebloods. And it's mostly native purebloods born from vampire unions, with only a few being foreign purebloods who have transford from humans and ascended. Pureblood vampires have low birth rates but formidable strength.
"I am not familiar with the core mbers of the Black Knight family, I simply obey Tuobert, who holds my heart in his grip... This ti Tuobert ca to Iron Hoof Island, bringing five mixed-bloods, and I am one of them. If you kill Tuobert and take his heart, you can command the five of us mixed-bloods."
After hearing many secrets.
Liszt's face remained expressionless as he asked indifferently, "If Tuobert is a Completion Level Sky Knight, why do you think I can kill him? You must know, I have only just been promoted to a common Sky Knight."
That was the truth.
Although he had beco a Dragon Knight and his Dou Qi was gradually changing into Dragon Dou Qi, it still belonged to the category of common Advanced Fire Attribute Dou Qi, not to the level of Completion—The proper ranks of a Sky Knight should be just common and elite, like the Earth Knights, but an additional category of Sword Saint Level was created due to the significant disparity.
The title of Sword Saint, christened by the sword, felt more like an honorary distinction.
Without Completion, an Advanced Dou Qi is considered a common level Sky Knight; once Advanced Dou Qi reaches Completion, it signifies a Completion Level Sky Knight. There isn't a separate Advanced Dou Qi classification for Sword Saint Level; Sword Saint is a title earned through power, a transitional phase between common and Completion.
So with his Advanced Dou Qi not at Completion, Liszt naturally could claim he was a common Sky Knight.
Elizabeth licked her lips.
Whether intentionally or not, she always managed to incorporate a hint of seduction, "If I had not experienced it firsthand, I would not believe that Viscount's prowess could be so formidable. But in the hands of Viscount, I couldn't even cast blood magic, I could feel the Dou Qi in your body terrifyingly subdues blood magic."
Her blood-red eyes were incredibly bright, "I once fought with a Sword Saint, and granted I could not beat him, but he couldn't catch either, not even Tuobert could easily grasp ... But Viscount, you captured effortlessly, your strength is far greater than what I heard, I'm willing to take a bet!"
```
Speaking of which.
She then showed a trembling expression, "The Black Knight Family is terrifying. I was once just an ordinary Magic Apprentice, and it was Tuobert who discovered my blood was suitable for Blood Magic, forcibly turning into a Vampire... I hate Vampires, I hate the Black Knight Family, and even more so, I hate Tuobert!"
Her expression was vivid as if she bore deep-seated fear and hatred.
However, Liszt was certain that Elizabeth was indeed acting, her expressions were slightly overdone. Therefore, her words could only be listened to for the mont and not taken seriously.
Nevertheless.
Defeating Tuobert Black Knight was probably a necessary mission. After all, he had already captured Elizabeth, and the Smoke Mission was still incomplete, aning that "Bats in the Dark Night" were not just Elizabeth, but also included Tuobert and four other Mixed-bloods.
According to the information provided by Elizabeth, Tuobert's strength was probably equivalent to a Completion Level Sky Knight, which was nothing in Liszt's eyes.
Even if including the other four Mixed-bloods, as well as Elizabeth himself, he wouldn't have any trouble dealing with them.
Only, Vampires are, after all, elusive. Elizabeth might just be bait sent by the enemy to lure Liszt into a trap. He was not yet an invincible Dragon Knight, at most a Half-Step Dragon Knight, whose Dragon was not only unmounted but also not mature. Even his strength was not as good as the Marquis of Bull initially.
He still needed to be careful and cautious.
"Elizabeth, how can I trust you?"

"Viscount, what do I need to do for you to trust ? I'm even willing to agree to do anything for you."
"Try to act less in front of . You may not believe , but I often instruct the theater troupe's actors on how to perform in my territory... Tuobert can control you with your heart, and since I can't do that, how can I trust that you aren't deceiving ? Or that you won't turn against when the ti cos to kill Tuobert?"
Elizabeth's eyes lit up, "Has Viscount already decided to kill Tuobert?"
Liszt smiled faintly, as if discussing a trivial matter, "If you can convince , I don't mind killing a few Bats."
Taking a deep breath, her full chest expanded even further.
Elizabeth extended her right hand, and with a slight swipe of her fingernail across the wrist of her left hand, a cut imdiately appeared, blood began to ooze out. Of course, she was not committing suicide; rather, she was extracting her own blood through Blood Magic, pulling out a fist-sized lump of sticky, glowing blood.
Her already pale complexion beca even paler, almost to the point where the blue veins beneath her skin were visible.
She held out this lump of blood to Liszt, "Viscount, this is the blood I have infused with Blood Magic over the years. Although leaving it won't kill , I will lose almost all my magic and the potential to advance to a Pureblood... I hope this can make you trust ."
In the vision of the Eye of Magic, this lump of blood was wrapped in a rich red Magic Power, while the Magic Radiance on Elizabeth herself was dim, nearly extinguished.
After hesitating for a few seconds, he reached out and took the lump of blood.
Squinting his eyes, he said, "Tell , where is Tuobert, how do I find him, what are his weaknesses... I believe you must have a plan."
