Volume 2 Vampires Chapter 8 Discussion
Dark Night Veil, Locke Street Detective Agency.
After a torrential rain, Xia Zuo and the others finally returned to their office on Rock Street.
As soon as he returned to the office, Xia Zuo couldn't wait to change his clothes, after all, Xia Zuo had been exposed to the rain during this operation, and his whole body was completely soaked, if it weren't for Xia Zuo's extraordinary physique as a soul descendant, I'm afraid Xia Zuo would have a fever or a cold by now.
The other people who had been drenched in the rain also changed their clothes and gathered in the living room.
Jarvis, who had temporarily lost consciousness, was placed in a room by Fred and controlled by Xia Zuo's soul trap, so that Xia Zuo and the others could gather together to discuss things with peace of mind for the time being.
"Jasmine, let's talk about the information you have now. Seeing that the members had arrived, Anos said to Jasmine straight to the point.
"You said that this is not the only one of the Clans who came to Clara, what is going on?"
"Well, let me explain briefly. Jasmine bowed her head slightly, "There is indeed more than one Soul Descendant Clan who came to Clara, as far as I know, plus the person who has been caught by us now, there are at least three Bloods. ”
"It's just that two of the Bloods have escaped. ”
"At least three Blood...... "Fred's purple eyes narrowed when he heard this, "this battle is not small. ”
"There are so many Soul Clans here, what is their purpose? Clara doesn't have anything to attract the Blood, right?"
"Moreover, it is not in accordance with the regulations of the parliament and is illegal. ”
"You know, we Clara don't have a blood clan to live in, and most of the blood clans should be managed by the council in the Mystic Sea, and they can't easily transfer their place of residence. ”
Due to the instability and danger of the Soul Bloodline, and the fact that it is easy to lose control due to the lack of Soul Blood outside, the Soul Clan Council has to adopt this method to manage most of the Bloodline.
Only a small number of Bloodborns with the permission of the Council are allowed to enter and exit the Mystic Sea (Sea of Ellette), but this is rare.
"What are they doing to make them come to Clara at the risk of illegal migration?"
"And it's the case of this kind of collective illegal migration. ”
“...... I don't know about that. Jasmine's eyes flashed with a hint of strangeness, and she was silent for a moment, then replied.
"Is that so......" Fred muttered.
"Then go ahead and tell me what you know. Instead of asking Jasmine, Arnos asked a different question.
"Hmm. Jasmine nodded, "One of the Bloods claims that there is a proposer among them, who is not their leader, but it should not be too far behind, and it is this person who made the suggestion to come to Clara. ”
"They're organized, not just huddles. ”
"If what this Bloodline said is true...... Then this time the situation is very serious. Elsa looked at Jasmine and said, "Jasmine, are you sure the information is reliable?"
Elsa stared at Jasmine in front of her, a palpable look of concern in her eyes.
"Well, that's right. Jasmine said quietly, "That Bloodline shouldn't be lying. ”
Elsa fell silent, looked at Jasmine quietly, and after a moment, sighed for some reason.
"Anos, are you going to report it to the council?" Elsa turned her gaze away from Jasmine and turned to look at Anos.
"Let's take a look at the situation first. Anos shook his head in surprise, "The matter of Lesterley last time was not completely resolved. ”
"Even though I reported the entire incident to the Council, and the other Soul Hunters as proof, the Council remained wary and suspicious of us and would not easily believe our words. ”
"Also, after all, an important researcher died unexpectedly outside, and there are still many souls on the council's side who have a good relationship with Riley, and the council will not dispel our suspicions so quickly, and there may even be people who will treat us as suspects in harming Riley. Fred raised his eyebrows slightly, "If I were the council member who handled this matter, I wouldn't easily believe that Riley was replaced by a demon seed." ”
"Anyway, let's continue the investigation first, and it's best to capture all the bloodlines who illegally entered Clara, and then consider reporting the matter to the council. "We don't have enough evidence right now that we can't prove to the council that the Bloodlines are illegally moving. ”
"In order to catch these Bloodlines sooner, we'd better inform the other Soul Hunters and get them to pay attention as well. ”
"Clara's soulborne, together, should be able to capture them quickly. ”
"Hmm. Everyone nodded.
"Uh...... Wait a minute, everyone, can I ask a question?" Xia Zuo asked weakly when he saw that everyone's opinions were unanimous.
"How many soul descendants do we Clara live in?"
"Like the Sunstrider, the Lighthouse, and the Shadow Order, they may not have recovered from their injuries now, and if there are only these soul descendants, I'm afraid we Clara won't have enough manpower. ”
"How many soulborns does Clara have......" Fred stared at Natsuzo with a smile in his playful eyes, "Guess what?"
"I don't guess. Xia Zuo immediately replied.
At first glance, I knew that Fred, you guy, wanted to tease me again, I didn't guess, Fred, you guy is so bad.
Xia Zuo complained in his heart.
"Haha...... I won't tease you. Fred couldn't help but smile when he saw this, "I'll tell you the truth." ”
"I don't know the exact number of Clara's Soul Descendants, only the Council knows. ”
"But I've been with Clara for so long, I can still guess the approximate number. ”
"Clara's large and small soul hunting squads combined, plus some scattered soul descendants who have no affiliation, the entire Clara's soul descendants are no more than a hundred people at most. ”
"It should be between fifty and a hundred. Fred said.
"So little?" Xia Zuo was stunned, why didn't he feel that he was a "rare species" before?
The entire Clara has a population of two or three hundred thousand, and among so many people, there are only us with no more than a hundred soul descendants, this number is inevitably too small, right?
"Xia Zuo, in fact, this is already a lot. Fred smiled and said, "The reason why Clara has so many soul descendants is because Clara has such a famous harbor as White Gull Harbor. ”
"There will always be some soulborns who come to Clara and stay in Clara temporarily, otherwise there will be fewer soulborns in Clara. ”
"Then how are we going to find these bloods?" Xia Zuo couldn't help but hold his forehead.
Clara is so big, and the object she is looking for is a blood clan that is superficially similar to humans and basically the same as our soul descendants, how easy is it to find them?
"It's up to you. Fred smiled, "Or rely on your soul to track? I think this is good, I'm optimistic about you, Xia Zuo." ”
Fred looked at Xia Zuo with a wicked smile.
"Ah, it depends. Xia Zuo had no choice but to nod awkwardly.
"Oh yes. Xia Zuo suddenly remembered something, "What are we going to do with the blood clan that we captured?"
"Just keep it under control for now. "He's not in a stable state right now, and he could break out at any moment." ”
"Then why don't you give him a little soul blood first and see if he can return to normal?" Xia Zuo asked tentatively.
Arnos shook his head.
"If we let him absorb some more soul blood, he may indeed regain some of his senses, but he may also be stimulated by it and lose control even more. ”
"For the Soul Descendant Blood Clan, once they enter this state of losing control, they are basically hopeless. ”
"And what about after that? What are we going to do with him after that?" Xia Zuo asked, "We can't just keep him here, can we? What will happen to him when it's over?"
After Xia Zuo learned that Jasmine was indeed the Bloodline, Xia Zuo began to want to know more about these things about the Bloodline.
Xia Zuo wanted to know, how did the world of the soul descendants treat the runaway bloodline?
Anos fell silent when he heard this.
Even Fred, who was usually smiling, restrained his smile.
Jasmine sat next to Xia Zuo, her head bowed and she didn't speak.
For a moment, the air suddenly became quiet.
What questions do you seem to be asking that shouldn't be asked?
Xia Zuo suddenly felt inexplicably nervous.
"According to the laws ......of the parliament," Anos finally opened his lips slightly, and said slowly, "The bloods that are completely out of control should all be treated as ghosts, and sentenced to death or life imprisonment, that is, seals. ”
"And depending on the gravity of the circumstances, this Blood, he killed a human, of course, maybe more than one person, just because we don't know, but in any case, for that alone, he should be sentenced to death by the council. ”
“...... Death penalty?" Xia Zuo's expression suddenly froze, and then he hurriedly asked, "Is that just out of control?
"It's still a death sentence, or a permanent seal. Arnos said lightly, "But considering that permanent seals will consume more resources, the general council will give priority to the death penalty and finally recover the soul essence in his body." ”
"Usually only those bloodlines that were more special before they got out of control, such as those with great contributions, can be permanently sealed by the Council after they get out of control. ”
"So......" Natsuzo lowered his head, "I see." ”
Bloodline ...... Is it really just that they can only be treated by the world like this? Living in the world in pain, and dying in agony? Obviously they don't really see humans as prey like ghosts, and they may just want to live a good life...... But they can only die like this.
Jasmine She...... Always pay attention to your own state, always be alert to possible loss of control in your body, and always control your need for blood...... She must be tired from life, right?
If only the Bloodclan didn't have to live so tired.
Xia Zuo, who lowered his head, unconsciously turned into golden-colored vertical pupils.
"Okay Xia Zuo, don't think too much. Seeing this, Fred persuaded, "You were just a wild soul descendant before, unlike us who knew these things since childhood, and it is normal for you to not accept it for a while." ”
"But that's not something we can change. ”
"You should have a good rest. ”
"Look at your current state, the soul energy is quite unstable. Fred patted Xia Zuo on the shoulder, "There's still a lot of work to do tomorrow, and you can't do it right now." ”
“...... Well, I got it. Xia Zuo had no choice but to nod, "Then I'll go back and rest first." ”
"Well, go back and get some rest. Anos also nodded to Xia Zuo, and then looked at the others, "You all go back and rest, I'll just watch here." ”
The others nodded their heads and left the office one after another.
Xia Zuo walked out of the door, just in time to see a black petite figure in the distance gradually blurred, about to leave Xia Zuo's sight.
It's Jasmine.
Jasmine, draped in a black cloak, weaves like a shadow through the rain under the night sky.
The gods made the ghost to the ground, and Xia Zuo chose to chase after him.
I don't know...... Jasmine: How is she feeling now, and what is she thinking?
