In the early morning of the next day, as the sun was about to rise, many people in the city came to worship the God of Light.
This is their belief and tradition.
But to participate in this matter, the Pope must bring everyone together.
Therefore, the pope had to wash up and go to conduct adoration before the sun came up.
Basically I have to get up early every day.
There are no days off throughout the year.
The pope has a lifelong term, and the current one is already very old. The next one has to be elected among the bishops, and even if he is a bishop, he is still quite old.
Old age brings many problems, and the aging pope can no longer maintain sufficient energy to deal with these red tapes.
Therefore, there are dedicated people to take care of his daily life.
The nurse noticed that the Pope looked particularly energetic today, which was completely different from the senile appearance he had in the past.
"His Majesty the Pope, is there anything that makes you happy today?"
"Ah... no, praying to the God of Light is what makes me happiest."
Then, amid the stunned expressions of the caregivers, the white-haired Pope walked swiftly, like a gust of wind, blowing across the stairs.
The worship ceremony was perfect, and the believers found that the Pope was in particularly good condition today.
They all couldn't help but sigh, the power of the God of Light is really too strong, and the Pope is still so energetic even at his age.
What they didn't know was that the pope they respected so much was no longer human.
Last night, Song Heqing thought of a good idea. Since both the human race and the blood race are the source of his luck, no matter who fights whom, no matter which side wins, his luck will be damaged.
At that time, luck may still go to the hero and heroine.
It would be better to slowly replace the human race with the vampire race. Everyone would be the same. Wouldn't there be less conflicts?
Luck will also change to the left hand rather than the right hand.
Whatever he wanted to do, Song Heqing used his own essence and blood to integrate the power of faith in the church and transformed the pope into a new blood race, not afraid of the sun, the power of faith, and not afraid of gold, silver, and iron tools.
But he is afraid of the moonlight, and he is completely a vampire with day and night reversed.
Next comes virality.
Song Heqing folded a paper crane, whispered to it, and then let it fly into the sky.
That night, the Pope summoned eight cardinals, all of whom were in their fifties or sixties. Each bishop had a high reputation in various places.
Once the pope dies, eight of them are candidates.
However, they were also very confused today. The Pope rarely took the initiative to summon them. What was so important so late?
"His Majesty the Pope, we are summoning you late at night. Is there any big news from the Vampire Clan?"
"Don't be afraid. We have the blessing of the God of Light. It doesn't matter what kind of vampire they are. How many of them will be wiped out."
The Pope shook his head:
"I want you to meet someone today."
"who?"
Before he finished speaking, Song Heqing walked out from behind the statue, and the eight bishops all stared:
"This this……"
Song Heqing smiled and waved to them:
"Hi, how are you guys?"
"How can it be so similar?"
Everyone turned their attention to the Pope:
"Your Majesty, who is he?"
The Pope pursed his lips and did not answer their questions, but said:
"The reason why I called you here is to confess something."
The bishops had not yet reacted and asked mechanically:
"What's up?"
"I would like to invite you to join the Immortal Clan."
The cardinals looked at the Pope in disbelief:
"Your Majesty, what are you talking about?"
"Look!"
The pope opened his mouth, revealing a pair of large fangs, and his eyes turned dark purple.
The bishops were frightened and retreated:
"Bloodlines?"
"It's impossible, the vampire can't enter the church, and he's still wearing gold and silverware."
At this moment, the bishops couldn't turn their heads.
The Pope put away his teeth and began to speak earnestly:
"The average age of all of you here is probably over sixty.
I'm almost ninety this year, older than many of you, and closer to death than many of you...
I know that some of you are looking forward to my death so that I can inherit the position of Pope. However, how many years can you be the Pope?
Anyway, it only lasts twenty or thirty years. Aging is terrible, but you try.
But... now there is an opportunity, right in front of you.
When you accept the baptism of the God of Light, you will become an immortal race with a lifespan of a thousand years. And it can walk in the sun and is not afraid of gold, silver and iron. "
The cardinals were moved by what the Pope said.
Yes, they are all over sixty years old, and they don't understand the horror of aging.
Even the most famous bishops have their own desires and selfish motives.
Such temptation made most of them choose to acquiesce.
Seeing that they no longer had any objections, at Song Heqing's signal, the Pope showed his fangs, floated to the nearest bishop, and "hugged" him.
Song Heqing: "Very good, there are 9."
9527: "Host, are you planning to change all human races?"
"Of course, but there is no need for the male and female protagonists." Song Heqing's eyes revealed a bit of amusement:
"I want to see what their expressions will be like when they finally find out that everyone around them except themselves is a vampire."
9527: "You are so perverted, but I like it."
The transformation of the eight cardinals has mixed the original golden power of faith in the church with a hint of lavender.
These nine new blood clans shouted loudly to Song Heqing:
"Thank you to the God of Light for granting us eternal life."
Next, Song Heqing gave them instructions on what they had to do, and emphasized that the male and female protagonists could not be assimilated, and everyone else could be assimilated.
After giving instructions, he returned to the misty mountain forest, where all the vampires were waiting under the moonlight.
"Welcome ancestor!"
"Are you all here?"
"All the vampires are here!"
"Okay, I have something to announce today." Song Heqing looked at the densely packed vampires around him. Many of them had turned into bats and hung on the branches, like black leaves.
"From now on, don't go to human territory to cause trouble again."
As soon as these words came out, all the vampires were in an uproar.
"Why? Ancestor, you are also aware of the persecution of our vampires by the human race over the years. I have been waiting for you to wake up and avenge us, but in the end you said such words."
The one who spoke was Dai Qisi. She was young, strong and had a fierce temper.
Her parents and brothers were both killed by the humans, so she naturally hated the humans very much.
I really can't accept Song Heqing's proposal.
Even the old patriarch didn't stop her, probably because he was dissatisfied with Song Heqing's words.
Song Heqing didn't care at all about their opinions and didn't bother to explain. He directly released his bloodline pressure and made them crawl on the ground:
"Now that I have said it, I will not change it. You'd better not go to the human race to cause trouble. I am your ancestor, so I will naturally protect you. The rest is just to obey orders."
In this way, no one dares to refute.
However, there must have been many people who were aggrieved, but no one said a word, and the scene became awkward for a while.
The old patriarch came out to smooth things over:
"Ancestor, if we don't take revenge on the human race, then what are we doing here?"
Song Heqing smiled:
"Of course it's to prepare for the technological revolution."
"ah?"
