The outer area of Neverwinter Valley.
"Gaudos, do you usually deal with disputes in this childlike manner?"
The bone dragon Malle, who had transformed into a human form, was lying casually on the ground of the valley. Covered in bone armor, he was holding a dragonweed in his mouth while looking at the things between the valleys that belonged to the four Georges and Hepburn. The natural ring terrain of Neverwinter Valley also makes it an excellent viewing platform. In addition to the peerless experts sitting in the "special seats", the rest of the Cullen family and Aspen The vampires of the Maude family also found their own seats, staring at this "battle of the century" intently, for fear of missing any details of the battle.
"What else? The palms and backs of the hands are all flesh. If the Asmodeus family hadn't made things so difficult to end this time, I wouldn't have bothered to go beyond the generations to manage the family disputes of the blood clan. Life and death are determined by fate, success or failure depends on heaven, strong The weak will be eliminated by the strong, isn’t this an eternal principle?”
The facial expression of Gaudos, which belongs to the half-dead side, really shows no emotion, anger, sorrow or joy. Except for the occasional exaggerated and terrifying smile, no one can read his true thoughts from his expression.
"So the magic power you injected into the half-blood boy's body is also to facilitate the elimination of the weak?"
Others may not have noticed, but the bone dragon Malle, who is at the top of the mainland's combat force, can sense it clearly. When Gaudos announced that this "fair" bloody battle had officially begun, he also took advantage of the situation and used his magic power. Injected into the Book of the Dead he carried with him, at the same time, a certain treasure on the half-vampire's body also vaguely and quickly flashed a wave of the same magic power, and instantly flowed into his body. Although it could not be seen from the outside, But the half-vampire's sudden surge of vitality and magic power couldn't be hidden from him.
"I just want to speed up the progress of the battle. After all, time is very precious."
Gaudos did not deny Mahler's revelation. For him, this bloody battle to determine the fate of the family was just a formality.
"Do I have to serve such an insidious and cunning monarch from now on? How sad..."
"I gladly accept your compliment."
…
Hepburn Asmodeus, a direct descendant of the Asmodeus family, is currently the acting patriarch of the Asmodeus family.
When Hepburn was young, she was hailed as a rare genius in her family. Her good looks and powerful strength made almost all the young vampires of the same generation crazy about her.
However, the good times did not last long. The Asmodeus family's illusion potion industry chain was sanctioned by all-dimensional forces. The former patriarch Jorman Gund defected, and the Asmodeus family fell into the darkest era.
In order to change the fate of the tribe, Hepburn stepped forward to take over the position of acting patriarch, and took the initiative to become the victim of a political marriage with Vladimir, the patriarch of the Mammon family. With the help of the Mammon family's strong financial resources, Hepburn used extremely tough methods , gradually revitalized the Asmodeus family.
Originally, Hepburn was regarded as the hero and role model of the Asmodeus family in the first half of her life. However, after tasting the power, she gradually lost herself in her own desires. I don’t know when she no longer wanted to live. Amid the fear that she might abdicate at any time, she was no longer willing to give up everything she had worked so hard for.
However, without the patriarch's token, she can always only be an "agent".
According to the rules of the Asmodeus clan, a female Asmodeus can only be appointed as the clan leader as an agent. If a male Asmodeus with pure bloodline can successfully grow to maturity, then she will have to abdicate unconditionally. .
It is not impossible to change the clan rules, but there are three prerequisites for changing this stereotype:
First, the fire, the patriarch of the Asmodeus family, the true ancestor of vampires, Dracula, originally gave the power to the patriarchs of the seven major families;
Second, the personal token of the Asmodeus family patriarch, which is the "Requiem" that records the recipes for all forbidden illusion potions;
Finally, in the clan meeting, after presenting the first two items, obtain the unanimous consent of all clan elders!
With Hepburn's tough methods, it is not difficult to coerce half of the elders in the clan to agree. After all, even if the clan leader's fire is in the hands of the rebellious clan leader Jorman Gund, except for the person who carries the clan leader's fire, the rest of the clan cannot sense it at all. The power of the patriarch carried by the patriarch's fire, as long as a few disguised holy weapons, are enough to deceive the clan leader. Only the "Requiem" that records the formula is an important item with long-term strategic significance, and it is also part of Hepburn's plan. Among them, the most important thing is absolutely irreplaceable!
You must know that in the early heyday of the Asmodeus family, in order to prevent the leakage of illusion potions, all pharmaceutical formulas and pharmaceutical techniques were under the timed forgetting spell. Each stage of the pharmaceutical preparation was kept separately by different elders. Only the "Requiem" held by the patriarch can completely record everything.
Later, after the family was sanctioned, the pharmaceutical factory and pharmaceutical raw materials for illusion potions were completely destroyed. The remaining illusion potions in the family were only orphans that were lucky enough to be preserved to this day. One bottle would be one less. If Hepburn had obtained this copy of "Anna" "Soul Song", even though illusion potions are taboo in the mainland, as long as she operates them properly and uses the addictive nature of the illusion potions, she can control half of the Vampire clan without spending a single soldier!
And when that time comes, the day Hepburn sits on the throne of the clan leader will be the day she ascends the throne as the queen of the blood clan. It is precisely because of this that Hepburn was so obsessed with this "Requiem" and did not hesitate to fight George bloodyly even though he knew it was a fraud!
And her obsession made her already powerful attacks even more powerful!
