PS: Please recommend! The recommendation is terrible!
"She is not your prey." Kai said slightly threateningly to the void beside him. Then he raised the knife and struck Raquel in the head, who had been completely 'ruined'.
In the void of shadows, two low growls of grievance came, obviously dissatisfied with Kai for leaving the strongest and fattest girl to himself.
Of course Kai would not hand over this woman. Compared to those little guys, this woman was a vampire over three hundred years old, which was enough for Kai to get two energy points plus a full energy bar! Those minions don't have much money, just let the dogs grind their teeth. How can this kind of dinner be so wasteful?
Overall, today was a fruitful day, and this woman has more potential than expected. Kai not only gained unprecedented energy points, but also learned about the dealings between Tapia and vampires. Of course, this was not the biggest gain. The real gain was that he learned about the ecology of vampires in the modern world.
Vampires are much stronger than ordinary people, and these things are undoubtedly Kai's best 'leveling' materials at this stage. According to Kai's estimation, if he wanted to regain his strength bit by bit in modern society, it would be impossible within a few decades. Unexpectedly, the vampire jumped out at this time.
During the First World War, although vampires were severely damaged and their numbers were severely reduced, as they entered modern society, vampires not only did not completely weaken, but followed the development of society and began to revive, and the revival speed was very fast.
According to the information obtained from Raquel, the number of vampires in the United States alone exceeds 100,000! This was impossible to imagine during World War I. The productivity at that time was not as good as it is now, and the population and other aspects were simply not enough to support vampires' wanton development of descendants. Once there are too many vampires in an area, it is very likely to lead to a sudden increase in the disappearance and death of ordinary people. This will attract the attention of demon hunters, the Holy See and even governments, which is tantamount to seeking death.
Therefore, from very early on, family planning has been implemented within vampires. If a vampire wants to develop descendants, he needs the permission of the clan elders and even princes. If he violates this, he will be punished by solar eclipse, which means being thrown to death in the sun.
But after entering the new society, it was a good time for vampires to catch up.
First of all, due to the civil war of the Vampire Clan that year, the original Vampire Secret Party leaders were killed and injured, and a large number of key members were killed in the battle. In addition, after the liquidation in various European countries, after the remaining secret party leaders came to the New World with their tribesmen, the original Vampire Secret Party leaders Some clan systems have basically completely collapsed. Although the current vampires still have the Twelve Elders as the highest authority, in fact the original system has completely collapsed, and the vampires of the new era have begun to thrive in small groups on this continent. They no longer call themselves a clan, but a family.
Although the Twelve Elders have certain authority, they have actually lost control over the numerous vampire families in the New World.
This also resulted in the original Six Commandments of the Camarilla being basically ignored.
Basically, most of the vampires on the North American continent grow wildly. After all, modern society is too suitable for vampires. blood? As long as you have money, in this materialistic modern society, is there anything that money can't do? Even if there is, it only means that the money is not enough!
If I buy you 300CC of blood for US$1,000, will you sell it?
Basically, most people will sell it. After all, 300cc is really not much, it is completely harmless to the human body, and regular blood donation is even good for the human body.
In this case, the vampire lives a very comfortable life. For the vampire, money is the least thing to worry about.
You don't need to kill people, and you don't need to show your face to get blood. It's strange that vampires don't live a moist life.
And even if you can't resist the bloodthirsty desire in your heart, it doesn't matter. With the development of human society, urban agglomerations are getting bigger and bigger. In an international metropolis, the number of people who disappear every day is really impossible to count. The flow of people is too large, and the number of people disappearing constantly Some people come to big cities, and people keep leaving. Many people come and go, and no one cares at all. In Los Angeles Central City alone, 3,000 people are confirmed missing every year...that is, the kind of people who are never seen alive or dead.
Big cities have always been a favorite place for vampires. The materialism and depravity here are perfect for them. In this case, vampires really don't want to be too happy.
Again, this is a huge plus for Kai!
Although after arriving in modern society, Kai's desire for strength is actually not too urgent, but if there is a way to speed up the recovery of strength, why not do it? And that’s a vampire! If he kills too many people, Kai is afraid that he will become a murderer, but if he kills vampires... these things too much, Kai won't feel the slightest bit guilty.
It just so happened that from Raquel's information, Kai learned that there were actually many vampires hiding in Chicago.
Unlike New York, the vampire community in Chicago was unified into a whole by Dickon Faith. They are divided into more than thirty groups of different sizes and hidden throughout the city.
There are approximately five to six thousand of these vampires.
Don't think this is a lot. For a city with a permanent population of more than 2.7 million, and including the floating population, it is not difficult at all to exceed 3 million. In such a super city, five or six thousand vampires can't even make a splash if thrown into it. What's more, most of them don't need to hunt humans. Various blood banks and blood donation organizations controlled by vampires can perfectly solve their food ration problems.
As for why there are so many vampires hiding in the city and no one has discovered it... this problem is very complicated. First of all, vampires do not need to hunt to obtain blood, so there are fewer people dying and missing because of vampires.
Secondly, there is the vampire's network. As a fallen race, all kinds of bribery and network management are as simple as breathing for them. Even if there is any emergency, the vampire's spokesperson in human society will quickly deal with it.
Because of this, it is not easy to deal with vampires openly. If Kai were to deal with vampires as a policeman, let alone how to explain to others why vampires exist and how they were discovered. Let’s just talk about the relationship network run by vampires. It's troublesome enough.
But what if it was Hannibal?
That's no problem. You won't be able to see the light anyway. If you fight to the death in the darkness, you won't be able to affect society in the sun.
"Then the hunt begins!"
…
Just as Kai started hunting vampires as Hannibal, on the other side, the Chicago Police Department finally became anxious.
"Hey! Kai, do you hear me? Why have you been so distracted these past two days?"
"Ah?" Kai said in a daze, as if he suddenly woke up, "What's the matter?"
Deputy Director Cooper was a little helpless. "How are you?"
Kai shook his head. "It's okay, I'm just thinking about something."
Dual-line operation is a challenge for Kai. At least Kai can't adapt perfectly yet. This thing will take some time. Normally it's fine, but if the main body is caught in a battle, the clone can't react.
This stuff takes a lot of practice to get used to.
"What did you just say?" No, he didn't hear a word of what Deputy Director Cooper just said.
Cooper reluctantly repeated what he said.
"You mean to let me take the HBT to hunt gang members?" Kai stared at Director Cooper in front of him with wide eyes.
"No, it's not hunting, it's to stop gang wars! Remember this is important. I don't want to receive a lot of complaints that we often abuse force." Cooper curled his lips and corrected Kai's statement.
Although that is what he said, in fact the 'final plan' Cooper gave Kai meant exactly that. All gangs that are at odds with each other during this period, no matter which gang they are, will be destroyed! And it's the kind with the highest authority that can be shot to death.
To put it bluntly, the police department finally couldn't stand the chaos in Chicago now and planned to use force to deter the gangsters. For this reason, the Chicago Police Department also boldly handed over the HBT (Chicago Police Special Forces) to Kai to command.
Kai led HBT in Chicago in 2008. During a surprise attack on a gang lair, Kai led several of his brothers to kill dozens of people from the first floor of a public building, and followed him. of HBT but there were no casualties.
It is precisely because of this resume that the Chicago Police Department is very comfortable letting Kai command HBT. And HBT has no objection to this.
A capable person will be respected wherever he goes.
Kai didn't listen to Cooper's nonsense. Although this guy always had a hot temper and was selfless, in fact, this guy had reached his current position and was already a politician. The position of police chief in a big city like Chicago is simply not achievable by a fiery police officer who only knows how to handle cases. If you really want to climb to Cooper's current position, it is almost impossible to have political ability. So don't look at the righteousness he said.
In effect, it is giving Kai and HBT a license to kill!
"Aren't you afraid that public opinion will spray you to death if you do this?"
The United States always talks about human rights and is full of disgusting weakness in its treatment of criminals. Kai had seen a news story. When a serial murderer was on trial, the family members of the victims came on stage one by one, hoping that the jury would impose a heavy sentence. As a result, a family member of the victim walked up and told the murderer that he had forgiven the murderer...
At that time, everyone in the court was extremely moved. Even the serial murderer was moved to tears.
Then this incident was publicized everywhere and became a propaganda material for anti-death penalty organizations. He also claimed that the death penalty is inhumane and should be influenced by love and so on.
Kai's first reaction when he saw the news was, what about the victims? What about the families who are unwilling to forgive the murderer? They can't even have their reasonable demands met? He was even accused by public opinion of not having forgiveness.
What the hell!
In this public opinion environment, if the police do anything outrageous, they will be criticized immediately. Americans pay special attention to this. Not to mention that Chicago actually authorized Kay to shoot any gang member who got into a fight. This was simply murder!
Cooper smiled mysteriously and said, "Young man, don't you know that public opinion can be manipulated?"
The United States will always be a country controlled by capital. If capital needs it, it is not easy to turn black into white. Those media claim to be the uncrowned king, but so what? Isn’t the media in the hands of capital?
Killing people does touch some people's nerves, but what if they don't know?
What’s the biggest thing happening in Chicago these days?
Naturally, it's the Stark Industries Expo, which is the best opportunity to boost Chicago's economy. The upper-class society in Chicago also attaches great importance to this. Whether it is the business community or the political community, they can no longer tolerate the situation in Chicago that is close to getting out of control as the Expo is getting closer.
This is related to their own interests. Politicians need a good city image to win votes for the next election, and businessmen need a good investment environment to earn more profits. Once the two major classes that controlled Chicago came to an agreement, everything became simple.
kill?
As long as there is no reward, it is equivalent to nothing.
Kai can kill hundreds of people, but by then, the number of deaths known to the public can be in single digits!
That’s how pissy it is!
"Then what can I do?" Kai asked directly.
Cooper didn't speak, just smiled mysteriously.
Kai understood.
Although the gangsters will not gain much soul power, no matter how small the mosquito is, it is still meat! Besides, it is natural for police to beat thieves.
"By the way, I heard that several of your brothers are also in Chicago now?" Cooper suddenly asked.
"Not bad, what's wrong?"
"You can take them with you."
Kai didn't speak, but looked directly at Cooper. There is no such thing as selfless dedication in America.
"Rest assured, we will give them the commission they deserve. And we promise to keep all of your identities confidential."
"I'll ask them." Kai didn't make the decision for his brother. Let's see how they choose. Now that all the Haitian gang members are dead, their security mission is naturally over. If you want to make extra money, you can help them.
…
Night falls again.
"We are under attack!" A pale man in a suit hammered the table in a dark room and yelled at others: "We must react!"
An old man sat at the end of the round table, his hands folded on the crutches, his chin resting on his hands, his eyes cold and gloomy. "Do you know who did it? A demon hunter? Or another family? Or a mutant?"
Vampires have many enemies. After all, the dark world is really not that big. The more vampires occupy it, the less others will naturally occupy it.
Not to mention the demon hunters, they are mortal enemies with vampires. Meeting is a fight to the death. Many hunters here in the United States specialize in hunting vampires. However, most of the people they hunt are blood slave-level scum. Really noble vampires rarely fight against rude demon hunters. Not only is it a matter of style, but also because, although the North American demon hunters are not the same as the truly orthodox ones, The demon hunters are much weaker than the demon hunters, but they are like mad dogs. Once they are caught by the tail, there will be a steady stream of demon hunters chasing them.
This would cause real vampires more trouble than they gain.
Therefore, real vampires rarely expose themselves to witchers.
As for mutants, these people can also be regarded as enemies of vampires, but most of the time, the two sides do not interact too much. Because both sides think the other is trouble.
The real enemies of vampires are actually other vampires!
As mentioned before, vampires are now divided into small groups and grow wildly. This brings up another problem. There are always a few good territories. For example, big cities are certainly much better than remote areas, but those territories are divided up by big families. If other families want a piece of the pie, or even more, the best way is to defeat other vampire families.
Therefore, wars between vampire families are very frequent.
"No...it's a man named Hannibal." A middle-aged man with a serious face said in a low voice.
"Hannibal?" The old man felt as if he had heard this name before.
"A perverted murderer." Someone immediately added.
The old man frowned, obviously not understanding how such a person could be related to them.
"Last night, all three families in Beicheng were killed, leaving only one frightened blood slave. This name came out of his mouth. So far, five families have been destroyed, and Many humans who work for us have also been killed. As just said, we must respond. Otherwise, our deterrence will decrease! The humans who work for us have begun to waver. "
When the old man heard this, he nodded slowly.
"Indeed, the glory of the vampires cannot be desecrated. But we need a detailed plan. The best threat is not to take action easily. Once action is taken but has no effect, people will no longer be afraid of threats."
"Pah, pah, pah, pah." A burst of applause came from the dark room.
Several participants were stunned for a moment, and then their expressions changed drastically.
"It's so well said. It reminds me of Vito Don Corleone's lines. Oh, I really love the movie "The Godfather"." Everyone saw a well-dressed man with a London RP accent. The handsome man walked into the conference room as if there was no one else around. "It's a pity... such a good line was actually used by a blood-sucking bug. It is simply the greatest insult to the godfather."
After saying that, the man pulled out a non-reflective dagger.
"Hello, bugs, are you ready... to go to hell?"
