Earth's ephemeris, May 10, 2110.
On continent O, in an ancient private manor in a certain country.
Dracula, the blood lord and vampire king who had a battle with Melanin many years ago and was equally matched, was currently sitting in a luxurious hall in the basement of the manor, fighting with several princes of his clan. Discussions were held to prepare for a new round of arrests of Melanin and her son.
Behind its golden seat, within a rectangular frame 7 meters high, 13 meters wide and 3 meters deep, with numerous carvings of ghost heads or vultures, sit seven gold-plated statues of vampire lords from past dynasties.
The eyeballs of each statue are inlaid with rubies, the tusks are made of precious ivory, and the fingernails are made of green emerald. They look sinister, mysterious, and sinister.
On the altar in the middle, there is a crown, a scepter, a ring, and a set of scarlet cloaks embroidered with vulture patterns, symbolizing the highest position of the vampire clan.
The surrounding walls are painted in the form of stories, through oil paintings, with scenes of the thousand-year battles of the Vampire Tribe, which are spectacular, bloody and violent.
In front of Dracula, news related to the mystery of the Emperor's lost gold is being played.
Among them, there are reports on Wuyue Sect, its senior figures, and the layout of secular industries.
Outsiders only saw the surface. As Melaine's old rival, Dracula quickly sensed something unusual. He speculated that this incident was definitely not the work of E Federal Branch, but must be the work of Melaine's mother and son. .
He was convinced that the two people were still in the Lake Nogal area and would not leave the Xiber Snowfield at least in the short term.
After years of inquiring and investigating, Dracula discovered that there were many things about Melaine and his family that were different from ordinary people.
In particular, the elusiveness of the members of the Elder Council, as well as the confusing nationalities and ages, aroused his keen interest.
By chance, a blood test was taken from a third-generation descendant of the family. The results showed that the blood cells were fully active and the structure had mutated, which was somewhat similar to the evolution of life promoted by aliens.
He began to wonder whether this family had genetic improvements caused by genetic mutations, or even had an extraterrestrial background or extraterrestrial ancestry.
He wants to solve this mystery, find the "blood medicine" for himself that will never die, and find a solution for the prosperity of his people.
After watching the news program, Dracula licked his lips out of habit, looked at the 6 young, white-faced, and over-100-year-old men on his left and right sides, deliberately coughed dryly, and said in a hoarse voice:
"Princes, please share your views on this matter and your suggestions for next steps."
The first prince on the left bowed slightly to salute and said gloomily:
"Lord, this Bishop of Wuyue Sect is too difficult to deal with. Our clan has fought with him several times but failed to achieve his goal.
Only the adults gave him a heavy blow, but he miraculously resolved the blood sacrifice. If he sent people to encircle and suppress him again, it would be very difficult to capture him alive. "
Dracula: "It is precisely because of its powerful bloodline that it is worth our efforts. Once we get a steady supply of blood, you and I can live for a hundred years, or even hundreds of thousands of years."
The first prince on the right said:
"My lord, you are wise and correct. This mother and son must have a different blood source.
My subordinates suggest that we unite with the other two tribes and the Gu masters of the Eastern Kingdom to deal with it together. I believe that we will be able to create a miracle and bring infinite vitality to our bloodline. "
The first prince on the left: "If we suffer another heavy blow and our clan suffers too much loss, I am afraid that we will be coveted by the other two clans."
The first prince on the right: "Jesus, you are approaching your end, don't you want to enjoy more of the delicious food in the world?"
Louis: "Mapoleon, of course, but..."
Mapoleon: "Jewish, thousands of years of melee have come to an end, but the blood race still exists in the world, which shows that I, Brujah, will always be strong."
Dracula: "Prince Yale, the evolutionary agent is currently out of reach for this race. Brujah must find a way for the race to rise to strength.
Prince Mapoleon's suggestion is very good. The probability of success is very high when joining forces, and at the same time, the harm of the sequelae of losses is avoided.
After they succeed, we will discuss the issue of blood source distribution. Prince Mapoleon will personally organize and implement this matter, and one of them must be captured alive. "
Mapoleon: "Yes, Lord. My subordinates will definitely live up to their high expectations and strive to capture them all alive."
Dracula: "Remember, don't kill him unless you have to. Obtaining the corpse is of little significance. After completing this task, you will get your due share in terms of blood distribution according to clan rules!"
Mapoleon was overjoyed: "Lord, please rest assured that my subordinates will proceed with caution and resolutely complete the task."
Dracula nodded happily, with a charming woman's smile on his overly young and fair face:
"I believe in you. If you have any difficulties, I can always satisfy you."
After finalizing the matter, the seven people present picked up the wine glass brought in by the maid, looked at the bright red color drawn from the captive in the glass, drank it happily with smiles, wiped the blood from the corners of their mouths, and signaled the maid next to them to send them away.
Immediately, he returned to his previous gentlemanly demeanor, as if nothing was wrong.
Bloodthirsty races are famous for their indifference and ruthlessness. In their eyes, normal people are aliens and must undergo blood sacrifices to assimilate and become their kind.
Brutal fighting, brutal killing, and cruel blood-sucking are not tolerated by normal humans, so they can only live in dark corners and hide in Tibet.
Even if you live longer, you will still be living an ignoble existence.
With the advancement of civilization, especially the arrival of aliens, these dark remnants of history are in constant panic, fearing that one day they will become alien test subjects.
Dracula, the vampire king of this generation, is deeply aware of the crisis between himself and his family.
His longevity comes from the upgrade of his bloodline, which requires absorbing the transformed bloodline of people with special abilities. If he attracts the attention of aliens, the consequences can be imagined.
Since Dracula was born, he has never heard of or seen anyone being able to recover as before after being poisoned by his blood without any corrosive effects.
Melaine was an exception that gave him hope.
The ancient collections of the vampire clan record mysterious legends. As long as you find the best blood food in the world and replace the cold, dirty blood in your body through blood sacrifice, you can live an upright life like a normal ordinary person.
Eat the same food, bathe in the sun, marry a wife and have children, and stay young forever and never die.
Once this temptation takes root and sprouts, no one can stop its penetration. It will never give up until it sees success, life or death.
He and the six princes have made several attempts to achieve this goal. Even if they fail, they don't want to give up, let alone give up completely.
What they discussed was not the question of whether to give up, but the trade-off between sooner or later and the pros and cons.
The seven people silently exercised their energy and adjusted their breathing. After completing the replenishment of blood energy, they continued to discuss the next question.
Dracula looked at the second prince on his left: "Prince Hiller, please introduce the blood test results to everyone."
Hiller: "Okay, Lord. Based on the blood test of a third-generation descendant of the Strauer family, it is confirmed that the bloodline of this family member is indeed exceptional."
"The blood of the sampled subjects contains a serum unique to superpowers, which can continuously improve cell inertness and promote blood circulation."
"The phagocytes have differentiated into a mutated cell that can actively devour blood stains, keep the blood purified and smooth, decompose toxins, and metabolize them out of the body."
"There is also an unknown intermediate cell in the blood, and tests have shown that it has rapid repair functions. We suspect that it is related to the evolvers promoted by aliens. It is very similar to evolved photosynthetic cells and has strong antioxidant functions."
"When we inject it into the blood of vampires, it can help clean up impurities in cold blood, promote cell regeneration, and increase blood temperature. It has a great upgrading and improvement effect on vampires."
When everyone heard this, their eyes glowed red and they were full of anticipation.
For vampires, being able to create blood to heat up is a coveted luxury. This is infinitely more powerful than absorbing the blood of people with superpowers. It means that vampires can get rid of the bad reputation of "vampires" and "cold-blooded creatures" and maintain longevity while also being able to live longer. Live like a normal person.
Dracula: "Based on comprehensive analysis, the origins of the Strauer family are mysterious. The inheritance clues were interrupted 160 years ago, indicating that their identities are suspicious."
"I have a bold guess that they are likely to be related to the planet where aliens landed."
"The blood of this race does not belong to itself, and it cannot carry out life evolution."
"Therefore, it is necessary to obtain blood samples of the second generation of the family as soon as possible and verify through tests whether they are better than the third generation so as to make the next choice."
"Currently, the entire Earth planet has started life evolution service projects. We need to make various preparations in advance to cope with various challenges in the future."
Hiller: "Your Lordship's judgment is very correct, and my subordinates strongly agree with this conjecture."
"So, in order to realize our dream of rejuvenation, we have secretly learned from many parties and found a target that is easier to start with."
"This person's name is Cab Stroll. He is a member of the second generation. He is currently in charge of the mining and management of a gold mine in Chad, a country in the middle of continent F. He can be hired with high salary to carry out secret kidnappings and capture them for live experiments."
"Illegal armed forces are rampant in the area. Using them to carry out kidnappings can avoid a lot of trouble."
Dracula: "The target selected by Prince Hiller is very suitable. You will be solely responsible for handling this matter. It must be kept highly confidential and communicate through other channels. No trace of our clan's involvement shall be exposed.
Be sure to catch them alive. If it is completed successfully, you can also enjoy your due share according to the clan rules. "
Hiller: "My lord is wise and mighty, and my subordinates will do their best to bring a bright future for our clan."
Dracula: "I believe in Prince Hiller's ability. If there is any difficulty, he can always satisfy him."
The second prince on the right stood up straight, bowed and saluted, and said respectfully:
"Lord, my opponent Mei Lan's husband is currently presiding over the construction project of Nangang Life Evolution Hospital. Do we want to kidnap him and conduct in vivo experiments, or do we want to force him to reach a compromise with us in exchange?"
Dracula waved his hand: "No, his identity is sensitive, and if something happens, it will attract media attention and expose our plan;
Even if it is caught, it will not have much practical value. Instead, it will alert the enemy, prompting the opponent to take more precautions, and create more obstacles. "
The second prince on the right: "Lord, do you need to strengthen secret monitoring and be fully prepared?
If something unexpected happens in the above actions, it can also be used as a last resort to prevent the opponent from jumping over the wall. "
Dracula: "That's fine. This matter will be left to you, Prince Rubin, to coordinate and command, strengthen surveillance, and be on standby for action."
…
Focusing on the central topic of joint operations, the seven people conducted long-term discussions and decisions on plan details, manpower arrangements, weapons procurement, resource allocation, profit sharing and other issues, and finally formulated a joint round-up plan.
Subsequently, the vampires modified some of the contents of the plan, forming copies with different contents, and sent them to the other two Brujah lords, the descendants of the late Gu Master Jiao Wanda's line, and the alternative mercenary organization leaders through secular channels. As well as the leaders of illegal armed organizations, detailed confidentiality considerations were made.
Since then, the vampire's conspiracy against the Melanins and the second generation of the Strauer family has officially begun.
