Chapter 712 Betrayal

    

her hand. The blade emanated a faint white-gold glow.Ripples leaped forward, wielding his sword against the opposing Helena. The swords clashed, the collision of their forces creating a powerful shock...Ripple saw Lance's actions and knew that the other party had already believed her words. At this time, she didn't need to do anything, just needed to wait patiently.

Only Lans's red eyes flickered incessantly, while the woman caught in his grasp slowly paled, her face losing all color until she was still as death.

Lances flung his hand, tossing the woman aside. He then wiped the blood from his lips and looked at Ripple, saying:

“Those who pursue you indeed obtained a portion of our vampire power through other means, but I also read in their memories that you are an artificial vampire. How do you explain that”

The ripples smiled and said:

"Need I explain Because that's what the lab people told them, they were given false information from the start."

The ripples smiled faintly.

Then her divine consciousness suddenly and unexpectedly reached out, directly connecting with Lance's spiritual power. Before he could react, she read his memories, and she also displayed some of the original owner's memories. These were all false memories she constructed with her divine consciousness.

Things happened quickly. Lance didn't even have time to defend himself before the ripples showed him their memories. Only then did he relax his guard. This kind of mental communication could only be done between pure-blooded vampires. Generally, such clan members would grow to become marquises, second only to dukes with royal bloodlines.

Lancelot naturally didn't want to be enemies with such people, moreover, helping them out at this time would make them owe him a favor, which would be beneficial in every way without any harm.

"Poor Miss Ripple, I can't believe you were treated like this by humans. Our vampire clan will definitely seek justice for you."

Lance immediately said.

Mr. Lance, my escape this time was partly due to luck, and I also discovered some secrets. I don't know who to tell!

From the moment I was transformed, I was controlled by this bioengineering company. I had to figure out how to control my own power all on my own. It's a pity that the only memory I have of 'father' is a blurry figure; I never got to see his true face. This leaves me feeling very helpless."

Rill sighed helplessly.

"Rest assured, with me as your guide, you'll soon be integrated into the vampire family."

Lans chuckled.

He could immediately tell that Ripples was still a fledgling. He was confident he could become her guide and closest confidant.

"Alright, let me take you to change into something more appropriate. What trash are you wearing"

Lance immediately showed his gentlemanly side and extended his hand.

Ripple blushed and smiled shyly, placing her fair, soft hand in his. Together, they went to the second floor of the bar.

Lance chose a red sundress for Ripple, asking her to try it on. After Ripple entered the fitting room, he slipped away for a moment, returning within a minute and patiently waiting outside.

At this time, the descendants of Count Lance on the first floor left the bar together. They received their father's order to investigate the bio-creation company and incidentally inquire about Ripple's identity.

Although Count Rainsford seemingly believed Ripple's words, he still carefully arranged for an investigation.

On the other side, at the bioengineering company, they were cleaning up the mess caused by the ripples. The vice president of the company was fuming with anger, his mustache bristling, his face ashen as he looked at the remaining monitor screens.

"Are you pigs Calling you pigs is an insult to pigs' intelligence. How can you make such a low-level mistake!"

Corbett roared.

"I'm so sorry! It was our fault. Because the other party is a rare, one hundred percent convertible experimental subject, everyone just wanted to control her instead of killing her, which resulted in this outcome."

The head of the lab, Hausen, wiped sweat from his brow and explained with little conviction.

"When she was wreaking havoc in the lab, you should have known she wasn't so easily controlled. It's because of your stupid decisions that important samples from the company were completely burned! How am I going to punish you!"

Corvette shouted hysterically.

"Mr. Corrett, please do not get angry. Although we couldn't stop her from leaving, we know her weakness. We are confident that we can capture her during her vulnerable period."

Some bald-headed Housemen immediately explained.

Even if we bring her back, it won't make up for our losses.

"No, sir. As long as we keep her under control, she can use her vampire status to enter the vampires' territory and retrieve the crucial samples we lost."

Housen immediately said.

"Do you mean to have her steal the 'lantern tree' seeds from inside the vampire"

Korret narrowed his small eyes and said in a low voice.

"Yes, back then the vampires preserved a certain amount of lantern tree seeds to ensure humans wouldn't betray them."

If humans breach the agreement, they will allow the lantern trees to return to the human world, and the seeds of the lantern trees can only fail to thrive on their territory.

For this reason, the government strongly supports werewolves to keep them in check with vampires.

Besides, the company is researching artificial vampires, also in order to have a vampire clan that is loyal only to humans. By then, the existence of the vampire clan will be dispensable.

Housen explained it in great detail.

"You don't need to tell me, I already know. But now that the seeds are destroyed and several heavyweight professors involved in the research are dead, how can I explain this to those above"

Corritte's face was still contorted in anger.

"Mr. Corvett, please believe me, these are just temporary setbacks. Our research has made progress. The destruction of the test subject only resulted in the loss of some data. The crucial data is still stored in the researchers' minds. As long as we obtain the seeds of the Lantern Tree, our experiment can enter the next phase."

Housen vowed solemnly.

"Hausen, I'll believe you one more time. If there's any more trouble, neither of us will end well!"

"Yes, Mr. Corrett, please be assured that our goals are aligned."

Korte went for Hausen, then dialed a number cautiously. "

"

"Sir, there's been a slight issue in the lab, but also some good news. We've successfully created a 100% transforming vampire!"

And to help her infiltrate the vampire organization, our lab staged a scene with her. Now she's successfully entered the Glittering Path, where vampires congregate, and should be able to get in touch with them soon. We should hear from her within a short period of time.

As for seeds that were accidentally damaged, she could also get them from the vampires. These are just matters of time. Please have confidence in our creation, everything is under our control.

On the phone, the person said something and Corrette immediately replied:

"Okay, don't worry! I will keep an eye on the progress and report to you as soon as possible!"

Only after the phone call ended did Corrett let out a sigh of relief..Just at this moment, Wang Fudou and Qian Siming returned to the office. Lian Yi stretched her brows and asked directly:"Wang Ge, Si Ming (the nickname the original owner gave to Qian Si Ming), what d...
