A bolt of lightning struck suddenly, tearing apart the thick dark clouds and turning the whole world pale.
Vampires Manor's underground building, where the core members of the family gather.
They looked solemn and silent.
This is a solemn occasion, the awakening ceremony of the elders.
No one dared to whisper or whisper to each other for fear of being severely punished.
Victor is about to wake up from his deep sleep.
Once High Lord in the human world, it was later transformed into high-level Vampires.
He was more majestic than Marcus. He domesticated Werewolves into a docile slave, allowing the family to have a short and glorious history.
Whether it is Amelia, who is also an elder, or Marcus, who has always been indifferent, they all maintain a respectful attitude towards Victor.
"Today is the night of the full moon, and it is also the day when the power of the family is handed over."
Wearing a long dress, her waist was cinched and her breasts were squeezed, revealing a pair of evil Amelia, and she gave a few symbolic remarks.
According to the family's rules, the three elders take turns in power every hundred years, and the remaining two are buried in a blood coffin.
"From now on, it will be the era of Victor."
Amelia There was a trace of regret hidden in his tone.
She is much younger than the other two elders.
Sleeping in a blood coffin is not as attractive as enjoying the beauty of the world and experiencing the beauty of power.
Amelia bent down and twisted the switch on the ground.
Made of metal, the blood coffin with complicated patterns slowly rises.
Inside was a horrific skeleton with shriveled skin that looked like a corpse.
Amelia took out a small knife from the tray and without hesitation made a cut with his palm.
This is the unique skill of Vampires of the Corvinus Family, named "Blood Memory".
By sucking the blood of living creatures, the fragmented and chaotic consciousness picture in the brain can be obtained.
The higher-end Vampires is, the more complete the memory it transmits.
Amelia wants to inform Victor of all the major events that have occurred during the hundred years since he has been in power to facilitate the latter's management.
The bright red blood flowed into Elder Vampires's mouth along the metal pipe.
Then it enters the body, penetrates into the dry blood vessels, and finally converges on the heart that beats extremely slowly.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
After a few minutes, a strong heartbeat began.
"The awakening ritual was successful."
Amelia nodded with satisfaction.
In about a few hours, Victor will fully wake up.
"Bring me the blood bag."
Every time his deep sleep ends, Elder Vampires needs to replenish a large amount of fresh blood.
Only in this way can one's own strength quickly return to its peak state.
"Where is Serena?"
Amelia glanced at the crowd and found that two people were missing.
"Also, where did Kraven go? If you are absent from such an important occasion, don't worry about Elder Victor being angry!"
Victor, who is High Lord, has always attached great importance to hierarchy.
"I don't know. After returning to their room, they never came out again."
The subordinate who was scolded by Kraven before responded loudly.
He doubted whether his boss had succeeded.
At this time, I was enjoying the beautiful body of the Iceberg Queen.
hiss!
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but take a breath of air, with envy in his eyes.
Although Serena is an outlier in the family and likes to be alone.
But her icy temperament and arrogance that repels people from thousands of miles away are quite attractive.
Many of the younger generation Vampires have had the idea of pursuing it.
Unfortunately, they all ended in failure.
On the street near Moulin Rouge, a black car stopped.
It was pouring rain outside and the car was extremely quiet.
Kraven, who was mistakenly thought to be enjoying a spring night, was leaning on the back seat with a look of anxiety and irritation on his face.
The raindrops hitting the car window felt like heavy metal in his ears, further stimulating his inner emotions.
Bang!
The car door was opened and then closed.
Lucian, who was soaked from head to toe, sat on the seat.
Before long, there was a puddle under our feet.
"Didn't I tell you not to contact me recently! Today is the day Victor wakes up! I suddenly disappeared at this time, and it will be difficult to explain in the future!"
Kraven saw that Lucian, who had taken the initiative to meet, finally came, and the anger in his heart had an outlet.
Considering the special period, he originally didn't want to go to the appointment, but this Wolf King's attitude was very determined, so he had no choice but to come over.
"I have important news."
Lucian lowered his head, with a hint of coldness in his calm eyes.
"The human world also learned about the existence of the Alexander-Corvinus ethnic bloodline, and they noticed Werewolves and Vampires."
"This is a bad sign. We don't have much time left, Kraven."
"The 'Death Walker' who hunted Werewolves is the personal guard formed by Victor. They have been surrounding us all these years."
"That old guy hates Werewolves with all his heart, just like I feel... him!"
"One of us must die to end the war."
Feeling the chilling tone in Lucian's tone, Kraven couldn't help but shrink his neck.
He didn't want to get involved in any battle, so hiding behind and using his mind to control everything was the most appropriate choice.
"Who leaked the news?"
Kraven asked.
"I don't know. Maybe it's that guy Tallis. He is the recorder of your family's history, but he was almost exiled by Victor."
Lucian restrained his obvious emotions and said casually, "If you hold a grudge and seek refuge with humans, it is a very reasonable behavior."
Kraven punched the seat hard, and the black car parked on the street shook, as if there was some kind of violent movement going on inside, which made people think.
"What should we do now?"
Thinking of the consequences of betraying his family, Kraven was filled with fear.
He is indeed a power-hungry careerist who always wants to rise to the top and become a powerful elder.
But just as Serena thinks, he is also a coward.
Kraven has never had the idea of confronting Victor or the family.
The hierarchy of superiority and inferiority is a mark engraved in Vampires's body that can never be erased.
He wants to become the family elder and replace Victor's position.
But at the same time, he felt extremely afraid of the family elders and Victor.
"While that old guy Victor has just woken up, we launch an attack!"
Lucian's eyes flashed and he said seriously, "Open the gate of the manor, dismiss some of the guards, especially 'Death Walker', and find an excuse to send them out."
"Then I led the elite troops of my clan to break into the base camp and killed Victor, Amelia, and the sleeping Marcus."
"In this way, you will become the only elder of the family, and no one can boss you around or give orders."
Kraven's throat rolled a few times, as if he was persuaded by the Wolf King sitting next to him, his eyes full of desire.
It's just that this beautiful longing didn't last long, and my heart was quickly filled with fear.
"No! This way I will take a big risk!"
Kraven shook his head repeatedly.
The cooperation he had negotiated with Lucian was for this Wolf King to find the third bloodline of Alexander-Corvinus and become a hybrid.
After his strength skyrocketed, he personally killed three elders of the family to support himself in power.
Since then, Vampires and Werewolves have signed a peace covenant.
Regardless of whether Lucian is successful or not, everything has nothing to do with Kraven.
He hid in the back to keep himself safe.
"You still think you can stay out of it? Don't be stupid, Kraven."
Lucian sneered, ruthlessly shattering the opponent's illusions.
"Who is secretly funding Werewolves to help us break into the police system and control part of the human world?"
"Who will provide us with weapons to seize the territory of Paris block?"
"Why can we know every action of 'Death Walker' in advance?"
"As long as Victor uses a little force to investigate these suspicious places, we can find out the answers."
"You have already boarded my ship. Is it too late to get out now?"
Kraven looked livid and clenched his fists.
He noticed the joking meaning in Lucian's words, and also understood that he was being tricked by this Wolf King.
"You threaten me?"
Kraven was furious and wanted to question, but was hit with an elbow on his chest and thrown hard on the seat.
"Watch your tone. Without my help, can you get Victor's attention?"
Lucian scolded rudely.
"Don't forget, in order to send you to that position, I sacrificed twenty... common people, so that you can get a big credit."
The car fell silent.
The air seemed to be frozen.
"Our strength alone is not enough to enter the manor."
After a moment of silence, Kraven seemed to be planning to give up the struggle.
"Don't say 'Death Walker'. Just Amelia and the awakened Victor. These two Elder-level Vampires are not something you can solve."
"What about adding another helper?"
Lucian seemed to have expected it.
"Serena, the best warrior of the Vampires family, 'Death Walker' who hunts Werewolves the most. With her help, our chances of winning will be much greater."
Kraven frowned, and he subconsciously retorted, "How is that possible! Serena is closest to Victor... You mean, tell her the truth?"
In the middle of speaking, this Vampires Erwuzi came to his senses.
"Yes, it is a good thing to let that poor girl know the truth."
Lucian nodded.
Serena's parents were once craftsmen under Victor. They were responsible for building the prison where Werewolves Progenitor William was imprisoned.
In order to ensure that the location would not be leaked, Vampires High Lord killed almost all the insiders.
Serena's parents are among them.
She was able to escape because she looked like Victor's daughter.
This evoked the cold and ruthless Vampires High Lord, with only a trace of warmth in his heart.
"Serena never believes anyone easily. Unless I can provide strong evidence to prove everything I say."
Kraven's hands were clasped together unconsciously.
"You do have such evidence."
Lucian glanced at the other person's neck and smiled deeply.
"What do you mean?"
Kraven felt something was wrong.
A dangerous aura emanated.
He wanted to open the car door, but was pulled back by Lucian and slammed into the seat.
The thick muscled arm, with clumps of pitch-black hair growing out of it, firmly held the struggling Kraven in place.
"The mouth can speak, but the memory cannot."
Lucian said slightly apologetically.
"You would actually be a good puppet. Unfortunately, the change happened so quickly. I don't have that much time to accumulate strength and wait for the day of revenge."
"I found someone stronger and more helpful to work with."
"Originally, in my opinion, humans are just as untrustworthy as Vampires."
"But the terms he offered were so generous that I really couldn't refuse."
Click!
Lucian exerted force on his arm and broke Kraven's neck.
The power-hungry Erwuzai's eyes widened and his pupils lost their luster.
A small space, a close distance that is difficult to dodge.
In such a combat environment, it is not difficult for Werewolves to kill a Vampires.
Wiping his hands, Lucian opened the car door.
Dragging the limp body towards a car on the corner of the street.
Heavy rain washed away, lightning and thunder thundered.
The driver of the car got out first. He seemed to be an officer.
He opened his umbrella to block the water droplets coming from outside.
Then, the car window slowly lowered.
Sitting inside was Luke, and Serena with an expressionless face.
"I told the truth, now it's your turn to verify it yourself."
Luke opened the car door, smiled at Serena and said, "Let it be hot while it's hot. If it's cold... it won't taste good."
