Red Square South Street, Simon Monastery.
Although Peter the Great overthrew the Apocalypse Theology, the churches and monasteries once used by the Apocalypse Theology have basically remained. Mosk alone has more than a dozen large and small churches and monasteries.
After the Church of Truth settled in Mosk, it renovated these churches and monasteries and used them as residences for monks and priests.
The Simon Monastery, located on the street south of Red Square, is where the vampires live. It is not far from St. Basil's Cathedral, only two blocks away. If anything happens, you can respond immediately.
In the monastery, Louise was watering the flowers in the yard when she suddenly heard her husband's call from behind. She quickly put down the shower and returned to the monastery.
"Jielan, what do you...Father?"
Looking at Ma Wei, Edward and a doctor carrying a medicine box who arrived with Jielan, Louise was stunned for a moment and asked with some confusion: "Father, why are you here?"
Ma Wei rarely comes to Simon Abbey. He has many things to do every day, so where can he have time to wander around?
"Louise!" Jielan walked forward excitedly and took out the glass bottle in his arms: "Look! The mercury blood was successfully made!"
"Really?!"
Louise's eyes lit up and she took the glass bottle handed by her husband. While holding her swollen belly, she looked at the red viscous liquid in the bottle and said eagerly: "With it, our children can become Are you an adult?"
"This...Father and the others are not sure either."
If there was a precedent for turning extraordinary races into humans, Ma Wei could refer to it, but the fact was that there was not, and Buggy could not provide any useful help.
Louise lowered her eyes in disappointment, gently caressed her bulging belly, and thought for a long time before saying, "Are there any risks in taking mercury blood?"
"We have tested the appropriate dose!" Jie Lan said confidently, patting his chest, "You will be fine, you will just feel some pain."
"I'm not talking about myself, but the child." Louise asked: "Will mercury blood cause harm to the child?"
Jie Lan and Louise looked at Ma Wei together. Facing their gazes, Ma Wei wanted to give an answer, but he really didn't know.
but....
"Judging from the experimental results, although the blood of mercury has a powerful effect on the vampires, it still cannot kill them. After the effect of the drug wears off, the vampires will recover quickly."
After many tests, the effect of mercury blood has been very obvious. It can only block the connection between strength and body, but cannot completely cut it off. As for the side effects...
The vampire's self-healing ability is very powerful. After the test, Jielan was very active and active without any obvious side effects or sequelae.
Louise nodded in understanding: "In other words, mercury blood cannot cause permanent damage to the vampires?"
"Yes."
"I can rest assured that...."
A smile appeared on Louise's face again: "Since the child will not be harmed, then we have nothing to hesitate. Just try, Father."
"good."
Mawei looked at the doctor standing behind him, "Doctor Agata, please be prepared to deliver the baby."
"I need a warm room, hot water, bright enough lights and towels..."
The gray-haired, middle-aged doctor quickly stated his request. He is the most famous obstetrician and gynecologist in Mosk. He has delivered more than 20,000 babies in more than 30 years of practice and has rich experience. , the prestige is also very high.
According to Ma Wei, the sanitary conditions of this era are actually very substandard, but Louise is a blood race and will not suffer from human diseases. Bacterial infections, colds, etc. are even less likely to occur. Even if it is difficult to give birth, it will not happen. There is no possibility of a life-threatening condition.
Taking the blood of mercury is a big deal. The members of the vampire family living in Ximen Monastery got busy. They quickly decorated the greenhouse and waited outside the door, looking expectantly at Louise, Jie Lan, Ma Wei and Edward. Go inside.
This is the first naturally born vampire baby, which is of great significance, if Louise and Jielan hadn't insisted on making the baby a human...
Edward would be happier.
A brazier was lit in the room, and bursts of warmth spread from the red-hot coals. Louise, wearing a white loose dress, sat beside the soft bed, pulled out the cork of the glass bottle, held her husband's generous palm, and began to Point it and swallow it under the mercury.
The red viscous liquid entered her throat, and a burning sensation appeared immediately. Louise, who had never felt such pain before, clenched her hands tightly, her body trembled, and she tried not to exhale in pain, her blood vessels were blue and black. It appeared on its surface like a wriggling little snake, quickly turning red.
"ah!!!"
The moment the blood vessels turned red, Louise felt a sudden sharp pain in her abdomen, as if something was torn. The pain rushed into the top of her head. She screamed and fell on the bed, clutching her stomach, and sweat appeared.
The experienced middle-aged doctor Agata saw the signs of Louise's labor at a glance. His expression suddenly became serious and he said in a deep voice: "Let her lie down, quickly!"
Jie Lan immediately hugged the struggling Louise and tried to keep her posture as still as possible. Agata lifted Louise's skirt. Seeing this scene, Ma Wei turned and walked towards the door, saying: "Let's go." Let them handle it themselves."
"Um."
Edward turned around and followed him. Before leaving the house, Mavey did not forget to tell Jielan to give Louise 37 ml of mercury blood every once in a while to ensure that the medicine was stable.
The night sky was full of stars. Outside the greenhouse door, the vampires gathered together, nervously waiting for the results. Louise's screams could be heard from time to time in the room. Every time she screamed, the vampires would sweat.
In the courtyard, Ma Wei put his hands behind his back, looked at the starry sky above his head, and suddenly said: "I feel that you are hiding something from me."
"What are you hiding?" Edward looked at him expressionlessly.
"Things about Louise and Jerran."
"Don't you already know my story with them?"
"I'm talking about the baby in Louise's belly."
Ma Wei withdrew his eyes from looking at the stars, looked at Edward standing in the shadow, and said in a cold voice: "As the Lord of the Blood Clan, you know far more information than I do. Isn't there any record of the relevant information in your Vampire Secret Book?" Is it about the descendants of the blood clan?"
"...."
"Why don't you let go of Jielan and Louise?"
Edward lowered his head and thought for a long time, then suddenly said: "I didn't target them."
"No?"
"Indeed not." Edward said: "The baby in Louise's belly was a dead baby from the beginning. I discovered it when I first saw it."
Ma Wei's eyelids twitched and his expression became serious: "So you..."
"I did have selfish motives in turning Jielan and Louise into vampires, but part of the reason was because Jielan was very friendly to me and he was really kind. I didn't want him to be sad, so I used Sevengills. Something happened with the eels." Edward said in a calm voice: "Lampreys are my genus, and I arrived at Rosslare Port with them, so how could I not know that they were being caught in large numbers by humans?"
"I originally wanted to kill the humans in Rosslare Port, but the moment I took action, Jielan came to my aid. I obviously wanted to kill it, but it mistakenly thought that I was a drowning person, and even tried to kill it. Save me and loosen the lamprey nets...."
Edward grinned: "It was precisely because of its kindness that I came up with the idea of contacting humans. I have always been curious about how humans who were once enslaved by the vampires could overthrow the rule of the vampires?"
"If you are here to help Jielan, why do you want to turn it into a vampire?" Ma Wei asked.
"Strictly speaking, I wasn't trying to help Jielan, I was just repaying him. At that time, I wholeheartedly believed that the vampires were a higher existence than humans. Isn't it a gift to turn it into a vampire?" Edward shook his head: "Later I realized that I was wrong. Jielan did not want to become a vampire, and vampires are not higher than humans. All thoughtful races have their own characteristics... But I can't admit my fault, I am Lord of the Blood Clan, I can correct some mistakes, but I cannot admit them."
Making mistakes but not admitting them is to maintain the prestige and dignity of the ruler, which is a relatively common situation. At this point, Ma Wei understands Edward, but he ignores Jielan's thoughts and forces Jielan to become The behavior of vampires...
Ma Wei did not approve of it, but Jielan and Edward had already talked about this matter, and the two parties had reconciled. It was over, and there was nothing to mention.
What really surprised Ma Wei was that the baby in Louise's belly turned out to be a stillborn fetus?
"Can turning Louise into a vampire give life to the baby in her belly?"
"If it's an ordinary next-generation vampire, it won't work." Edward said: "That's why I took out Louise's heart and used my blood to warm the baby in her belly, so that the stillborn fetus could be rejuvenated..."
"Why don't you confess this to Jielan and the others?"
"What is there to confess?" Edward smiled disapprovingly, and a drop of blood jumped on his fingertips: "Originally, I wanted to tell them, but they always wanted the baby to turn into a human, right? In that case, I confess The fact will become a sharp knife that hurts them and completely cuts off their hope."
"So can babies turn into humans?"
"No." Edward sighed: "If the baby is not stillborn, there is still a glimmer of hope to become a human being. But the baby itself is stillborn. It has life because of my warmth and nourishment. It is a vampire itself, not a human being."
"If you want to force the baby to become a human, you need to extract its soul and reshape the body. But if you do this, will the baby still be the same baby?"
"The child Louise gave birth to is the child of her and Jie Lan, and she is also the sweet son of the vampire family with my power. Its birth will bring prosperity to the vampire family..."

Ma Wei stared into Edward's eyes, and heard a different meaning from these words, and asked in a deep voice: "What do you want to do?"
"Leave hope for the vampires."
Edward smiled, and his golden eyes were particularly bright under the night:
"I am already an undead from the last era. There are many things waiting for me to do. I want to avenge my dead companions. I am afraid there will be no chance of coming back, but I still want to go."
"If I die, the baby in Louise's belly will replace me and become the new..."
"Lord of the Blood Clan!"
