"Please wait a moment, both of you." Adil, the Marquise's butler, is responsible for managing various general affairs. So when encountering any situation, he would not remain silent like ordinary servants. Especially when there is a very important piece of information that needs to be confirmed. "You two just mentioned that last night's intruders were the true ancestor of vampires, Huber Berger and his clan. Are you sure that's correct?"
"Well, my sister just said that Huber is not the Huber of the True Ancestor." The blonde girl tried to clarify.
"No, that doesn't matter. In short, it was the vampires from that clan who invaded, and they were repelled by the two of them, so that's right."
"Well, we didn't fight back, they were all dead. Unless some of them didn't come in the first place, but as long as there are people who came, no one can escape." Halumi corrected again.
"They are all dead, are you sure?" Adil asked cautiously.
"At least we spent most of the night cleaning, so we weren't cleaning up fake ones," Halumi muttered.
"Miss, this matter is very important, so I must confirm whether they are really dead?" Adil asked seriously.
"No, actually they are all fine. I was the one who lied just now. So from today on, please live in fear, because they will come back for revenge at any time. Of course, the best situation is to leave this home. Anyway, you were not the target from the beginning. , why bother to lose your lives over a dispute that does not belong to you."
Halumi, who was already looking impatient, started to speak ironically. It was just these inconsistent words that, of course, confused and angered Adil. He turned to look at someone watching the show and said displeasedly: "Your Excellency Tripwood, maybe you should teach your apprentices that magicians do not need etiquette."
The melon eater was suddenly named, and Lin's eyes widened as if something was wrong. Swallowing the bread in his hand and sucking his fingers in an awkward manner, Lin said: "If the deacon is unwilling to believe what we say from the beginning, then we can only say what you want to hear and end it as soon as possible. It’s a pointless question, isn’t it?”
"Your Excellency, think clearly about your identity." Adil said sharply.
Lin said easily: "I am not obligated to answer any of your questions. Is this the one you want to emphasize?"
In the past few days, someone's easy-going and lack of temper would be complained by his apprentice at any time. This kind of weak character in the eyes of outsiders made him completely looked down upon by others. Especially those servants from the Grand Duke family of Kawei.
Staying in such a big family has long trained their eyesight, and they know how to distinguish who can be messed with and who cannot be messed with. This is why Adil dared to be so bold today, but he didn't expect to hit a soft nail.
Just when he was still about to argue, Halloumi nudged Marquis Balan with his elbow and said, "Your housekeeper is not very clever. Do you want to ask your grandfather to replace him? Otherwise, I think He won't live long. Maybe in a few days, he will be slaughtered by my teacher like those women. Now he falls out when he says he will, without any sign. I feel troublesome. How can this man become so troublesome? .”
Faced with Haloumi's intimate conversation trying to close the relationship, Marquise Balan had no reaction. He just raised his head, glanced at the butler sent by his grandfather, and then continued to work hard on his breakfast, ignoring others.
Halumi didn't feel dissatisfied with this attitude, but shook her head helplessly and said, "Ah, it's so cold."
Adil, the aristocratic deacon who originally wanted to gather arguments and fight even if there was no reason, suddenly remembered the deeds of this magician. I won’t go into the too bizarre parts. The black gauze army that originally guarded Marquis Balan lost many people under the hands of this magician.
Even those women with noble blood dare to attack. It is hard to imagine that as a servant in the eyes of others, this magician will have any scruples. Even if he is really a noble, even though he is only a lower-level noble and a vassal of the Grand Duke of Kavi - the deacons of the Duke's family have corresponding titles -, Adil does not think that this status can suppress the daughter of a noble who dares to kill him. magician.
Thinking of this, Adil couldn't help but shed a large amount of cold sweat behind his back when he thought about his previous attitude. All the things I wanted to say in my mind were either unspeakable or forgotten.
On the contrary, Lin asked his apprentice with a strange expression. "Am I really so emotionally unstable lately?"
Halumi nodded vigorously and said, "It's weird."
Kaya then nodded and said, "It's weird."
Marquis Balan nodded inexplicably and said, "It's weird."
I blame your sister! What does the one at the end who came to arrange flowers mean? Are you familiar with me?
But I ask this question because someone is somewhat self-aware. Ever since the last Xuanwu Robe incident, when he killed Chuuji's incarnation with a hakakiri within the confines of the Dream Tower, he really didn't appear anymore. The only ones chatting next to the Dream Tower now are Haotaku Avatar and Hakiri.
The changes that have happened to me, apart from the real disappearance of the second incarnation, are changes in my behavior. There are some things that, in retrospect, are decisions that I would not have made before; but at the moment, I do it without any sense of disobedience. Just like when I was studying, I hated heaven and earth, hated evil as much as I wanted to, and was decisive in killing, never considering the consequences of doing things.
So when it comes to sword slashing oneself, is the second incarnation really gone, or has it returned to itself?
Just when someone was worrying about unanswered questions, Leonardo, who had also been busy all night, looked at his teacher with admiring eyes and asked: "Teacher, have you mastered the sacred power of sunlight? That's why you can Easily defeat vampires, this evil that only exists in the dark. Jesus is above." The boy made a cross on his chest.
Although it is a very pleasant thing to gain the admiration of one's own disciples, one still has to make it clear whether it is right or wrong. If this kid calls him something like "Sun God", he won't be chased by Fen with a knife. That guy will kill the old gods on sight, he will show no mercy.
"Leo, we must have a scientific and realistic spirit, and don't push all unexplainable things onto the sacred or mysterious. Vampires are afraid of the sun, which is a phenomenon. And what is the reason behind this phenomenon? Are we looking for it? After coming out, we can control such phenomena. Sunlight, moonlight, firelight, candlelight, fluorescence, etc., so many kinds of light, what are the differences between them? If we can find this difference, is there any way to reproduce it artificially? A certain kind of light. If you understand this, vampires will have nothing to fear."
At first glance, it sounds very simple and easy to understand... but who can do it? Everyone in the audience shouted wildly in their hearts.
Although Leonardo didn't like using magic, he liked all the answers to 'why'. So he continued to ask: "What the teacher means is that it is not the sanctity of sunlight that can defeat the darkness of vampires; it is that some kind of substance that makes up sunlight can destroy the physical composition of vampires. Is that so?"
Lin smiled with satisfaction: "You have almost understood it, and it is much faster than your two senior sisters." Invisibly, someone took a step towards killing the young man from Floren Ross, and the two girls stabbed him in the back. The knife in his eye almost pierced a young man, causing Leonardo to break out in cold sweat. But he didn't realize it and continued:
"The people who were reborn as vampires from the human group can already be called a supernatural group, but they are different from those truly strong people. These people pursue a level beyond the original life, and each of them has blazed their own path. Therefore, every extraordinary person is unique. But in order for vampires to easily access that realm and pass it on in a special way, which is the first embrace ceremony, they are like inferior extraordinary copies. In having unparalleled While restoring abilities, body functions and being close to power, the fear of sunlight is like a maggot attached to the bone and cannot be avoided.”
The person who spoke above didn't care at all whether there was an audience, and said directly: "As for why there is such a result, according to the inference made by my research. Because vampires cannot be born naturally, they can only be produced through rituals. And this In my eyes, rituals are more like a contagious disease than magic. And everyone's infection symptoms are different, so there are unconscious blood slaves and vampires with normal human intelligence. Since it can be seen To treat a disease, of course we have to find the source of the disease.——"
Lin used whiteboard skills to show a strange-looking thing in mid-air. Most people didn't know it, but Fen knew it was some kind of biological virus.
"——This is what I found, the culprit that causes ordinary humans to mutate into vampires. I named it hemophilic virus. They added a special DNA segment to the existing genetic sequence of humans. In this way, Gain all kinds of extraordinary powers. But this connection happens to be interrupted by visible light energy of a specific wavelength, just like a lock that opens when it meets the right key. And this special visible light is just contained In the composition of sunlight, we get the result that vampires will be restrained by sunlight. If this series of coincidences can be regarded as the malice of a certain god. Then I think it can also be said that vampires are cursed. It makes sense.”
Not many people actually understood what someone said; even Leonardo who asked the question didn't understand. But to the ears of Fen, an expert, it was deafening, especially since she was currently busy with DNA compilation work. Regarding the work she was doing, of course she asked with concern: "Why is this happening? Do you have an answer?"
Someone didn't notice the Lich's increasingly ugly face at all, and just kept talking to himself, saying: "I don't know much about the biological field. But if you understand it from the perspective of programming language, I think the truth should be similar. Every time When a piece of program code that can run normally without any errors is put together, error situations that were not considered in the original idea may occur. Even in life, the same is true. Multiple correct decisions and results may not necessarily result in interaction. It will bring a happy ending. It is the lack of comprehensive consideration from a higher level that allows the vampire group to inherit individual advantages but also inherit disaster."
