Akado sat quietly on her own throne in the Tower of the Red Moon, her slender ten fingers and long nails as smooth as red jade resting on the armrest of the throne carved with intricate magic patterns. At the side of her hand, several heavy, ancient bronze and black-brown ancient books lay silently, the mysterious magic runes full of energy on the cover glittering in the moonlight.

Under the throne, there are eighteen wide crystal steps, each step is flanked by a magnificent white jade Roman column, each inlaid with a brilliant magic stone, the front and back of the triangle formed by the six-pointed star around the magic stone. Under each stone pillar, there stood a mighty guard in armor and weapons, all of them solemn, motionless as a mountain, and even the sound of breathing could not be heard, if it were not for the cold red light that pierced people's hearts at two points behind the face armor, it would almost make people suspect that they were just statues.

Everything is quiet, Akado just sits quietly, but her delicate face is as beautiful as a spring peach, but it always carries a kind of vicissitudes and indifference that are free from the years. His clear eyes were like ancient springs flowing peacefully under the moon for thousands of years, looking at the empty night sky outside the window, and the slightly blood-red moon that occupied half of the sky.

It would have been impossible to see such a fantastic night view on Earth, but this Tower of Eternal Night is an exception, because it is tall enough, and as the tallest building on the entire planet, its top has reached deep into the stratosphere. And due to the solidified enchantment that distorts the atmosphere, absorbs, and corrects the lunar energy, the moon will be magnified dozens of times when looking out from inside this tower, and the moonlight has also been corrected to a slight redness that can make the new blood clan feel comfortable the most.

Gathering clouds and scattering sunlight during the day, and dispersing clouds and condensing moonlight at night, every night city in the Red Moon Empire is now located. There is such a set of super-large meteorological regulation enchantments in the sky. And because of this, the living habits of the new blood are completely different from their ancestors hundreds of years ago. They no longer hide themselves in the depths of gloomy castles and tombs, spreading terror to deter visitors. Now the status is more noble blood clan. The more you will live in the bustling city, live in the tallest skyscraper so that you can enjoy the best quality moon energy at all times. As for the ruling core of the New Blood, the Tower of the Red Moon, located in the center of the Eternal Night Capital of Old Europe, it will always belong to the supreme ruler of the New Blood, the Empress of the Red Moon, Akado!

Now, the gods have been dead for more than a century, and most of humanity, deprived of its faith and protectors, has chosen to submit to the rule of the New Bloods after several brutal bloodsheds and conflicts. The Red Moon Empire also protected the basic rights and interests of human beings in the form of legislation, strictly prohibiting the hunting of human beings by the blood clan, as well as the use of human souls and lives to enhance their strength and make magic weapons. Those who dare to offend are often punished with capital punishment, or obliterate their sanity and become puppets. Today's human beings pay taxes in the form of voluntary blood donations every six months. They have full control over their own blood and can sell their own blood if they want to. Among them, human beings who do not smoke or drink alcohol, and maintain their blood activity in strict accordance with the exercise, breathing, and diet provided by the Red Moon government, the price of blood will naturally rise, just as the price difference between fine wine and bad wine can be tens of thousands of times. Some of these unique bloodowners are as sought after among the new bloods as the stars of the old days.

Due to a series of alchemy, potions, and genetic modifications, many of the serious flaws in the old blood clan have been greatly compensated for in the new blood clan, and now even the lowest-ranking new blood clan. As long as you wear a pair of sunshades, you can also move normally in the sun for quite some time. And because of the borrowing of the Eastern Qi Refining Method, mainly relying on the absorption of pure moon energy to improve their own level, the new blood clan no longer has to suffer from the resentment of the victim and the impurities of life and soul, their physical and psychological state. There are no longer many anomalies and distortions like the old bloods, and there is no need to sleep like corpses all year round to digest the heterogeneity. The more high-level the bloodline, the more it can reduce its dependence on human blood. The more rational and refined the behavior and self-cultivation become.

It has a series of traits that human beings dream of, such as eternal youth, but the flaws are so few that they are almost negligible. So in the eyes of many humans, the New Bloods are the most idealized of humans. In order to become this kind of coveted existence, they can pay any price! At the same time, because the life origin of the new blood clan is still negative, the fertility rate is still extremely low, and the offspring born naturally are too weak in their infancy, the growth cycle is too long, and the premature death rate is high, so the new blood clan is still dominated by human transformation.

However, it is a pity that the New Bloods have always kept the ratio of Bloods to Humans below 1:10, and any behavior of developing descendants in private will be severely punished. Only those who possess the extraordinary intelligence and abilities of the first in a thousand and have made outstanding contributions are eligible to be transformed into a new bloodline through a series of public processes. In this way, the time for many outstanding people to contribute to society was greatly extended, and the empire's technology, secret methods, and art were continuously improved.

In view of the fact that the lifespan of the new blood clan is much longer than that of ordinary humans, in order to avoid the bad state of population explosion in the distant future, the Red Moon Empire has always carried out the will of the Red Moon Empress and implemented a cold advanced trial, and all new blood clans who are still unable to advance after reaching a certain age will be forced into a series of cruel trials with extremely high mortality rates. One of the most famous places of trial is the year-round battlefield where the empire and China repeatedly fought over the Japanese archipelago. It is precisely this kind of Spartan cruel rules that fundamentally guarantees the absolute elitism of the new blood clan at the top of the food chain.

Under the rule of the empire, the rights and interests of ordinary human beings, personal and property rights have been basically guaranteed, and the upward channels of a few elites have not been closed, which is no different from the free commoners of the old era, but the resources exploited by the upper classes are just an extra blood. Even their physical fitness is much higher than that of the common people in the old era, just because the empire is more than ten times more powerful than the human government in the old era in terms of environmental protection and the promotion of national fitness, health preservation, and medical treatment. After all, the new bloods need to do their best to protect the quality of their "food", and if the blood supplier is not healthy enough, it will be at the expense of their own interests.

Although it is a world away from the human blood slaves who are violently hunted, imprisoned, or magically controlled by the old bloods, they are human rebels who do not want to act as the next layer of the alien food chain and do not want to be dominated by the aliens. Even if there are a few, there is never a shortage of them. Almost every year. Thousands of underground rebels, large and small, have wreaked havoc and chaos within the Empire. And the only human kingdom that exists in a grand form, and engages in all-out competition and confrontation with the Red Moon Empire in various fields. Now there is only one and only one, and her name is Huaxia!

It can always stand tall in front of the Red Moon Empire, which is almost unified around the world, not only because Huaxia has unfathomable celestial warriors, Jindan monks and many immortal secret techniques handed down from ancient times, but also because the founder of the Red Moon Empire, the Red Moon Empress, made a ban of "never violate Huaxia" at the beginning of the founding of the country.

Before she knew it, Accardo had been watching the moonlight for hours, and it seemed that she could continue to look at it that way, which seemed to be her only pastime for passing the long night. She couldn't remember how many nights she had spent like this, perhaps for half a century......

But tonight, the near-eternal silence was destined to be interrupted.

An old butler, dressed neatly dressed in an old-fashioned tuxedo, walked silently along a long lavish carpet under the crystal steps. Though the carpet of gold and silver was soft and smooth, he walked respectfully and cautiously beyond it, his leather boots on the jeweled obsidian floor, without making the slightest sound. In fact, the soles of his shoes did not have any contact with the floor at all.

"Parliamentarian again?" Akado still didn't withdraw his gaze from the window, but asked flatly.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" the old butler cupped his chest and bowed his head deeply, his originally gentle tone tinged with a rare hint of anxiety, "But this time, I think you should meet them." ”

"Oh?" Akado finally turned his head. Keeping his eyes on him: "Tell me, what's going on?"

"Lord Misria, the Chief Consul, was assassinated by the Huaxia Killer and is still being rescued. However, the murderer has also been captured alive. At present, the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Lord Jabalt, along with all the Red Moon Councillors, has escorted the murderer to the court and asked to see him. ”

Accardo was silent for a long time, as if recalling who "Misria" and the others were. Finally, he said, "Let them in!"

Moments later, thirteen permanent legislators, dressed in black robes embroidered with the red moon emblem, streamed down the long blood-colored carpet. They were both men, women, and children, but even the youngest faces. The demeanor still has traces of the precipitation of the years.

Even if the rights and interests of the lower classes are protected, the Red Moon Empire still has not changed the fundamental tradition of respecting the strong, so those who can serve as permanent members of the Red Moon Council are all at the duke level, and they all have a deep big clan background, or simply the head of a clan.

After kneeling halfway through the strict etiquette, a silver-haired middle-aged man led by him raised his head to face the supreme throne with the blood-red crescent moon as the emblem on the eighteenth crystal steps, and bowed to Accardo on the throne:

“…… This assassination of Lord Misria was an extremely despicable and vicious act of war, and it was also a great shame that the Red Moon Empire had never encountered! As of the early hours of the morning, the parliament had received more than 1.2 million letters of war from all over the country, and the Red Moon Council had unanimously approved a proposal for war against China two hours earlier...... As we all know, the empire's military strength, resources, and economy now constitute an overwhelming advantage over China, even if it is inconvenient for our emperor to drive the expedition in person and make the high-end combat power slightly inferior, the overall still has an absolute advantage. Therefore, as soon as the war begins, it will be able to achieve all the achievements in one battle and realize the long-cherished wish of the empire to unify the whole world...... As the speaker of the parliament, I implore my emperor to take advantage of this reason to lift the third ban and officially use troops against Huaxia!"

Although Acador had been ignoring any government affairs for at least half a century, the few commandments she had made at the beginning of the kingdom were still forbidden areas for the entire empire. Therefore, even though the Red Moon Empire and China have been fighting openly and secretly for more than a century, the empire has continued to plot against the Chinese high-level, and Huaxia has continued to provide all kinds of assistance to the empire's human resistance organizations, and the Japanese archipelago has become a year-round battlefield where the two sides have repeatedly brushed up hatred by the way, but if Acador refuses to lift the ban, the Red Moon Empire still can't let any pair of military boots set foot on the Chinese mainland.

Accardo waited quietly for Speaker Jabalt to finish a series of tirades in an impassioned tone, and even slowly turned his gaze back to the window, as if the moonscape that had been watched repeatedly for countless years was still much more interesting than these, and then replied to him lightly.

"No, you don't. ”

"My emperor thinks twice!" a group of parliamentarians were in a hurry, and they all clenched their fists in their hearts. Take a step forward. Jabalt's eyes seemed to be burning with a dark red flame, and he continued to speak in a low and sad manner: "But the existence of Huaxia has always been a great trouble for the empire. We have shed too much blood for this, and even if we continue to appease it, they will never quell their ambition to exterminate our people completely. To paraphrase an old saying: 'Not my race.' His heart will be different!'" There will never be any possibility of peaceful coexistence between the empire and China!"

"Isn't that great? Whether it is an empire or a Chinese country, without enemies, it will decay. Rushing to strangle the enemy can only mean that you are already afraid of each other!" Acador's tone was indifferent, and there seemed to be a hint of gloom in it. "It's nothing, but I promised him something, and I won't go back. ”

"My Emperor, in this world. There is no other being that can sanction your breach of contract, after all, the gods are gone forever......" Jabalt paused as he said this, lowered his voice again, and added tentatively, "including ...... Valkyrie!"

Upon hearing this, Akado suddenly withdrew his gaze from staring out of the sky and glanced over a group of councillors.

With deep red and clear eyes, it is easy for people to hang two red moons in the sky for eternity, looking down on the vicissitudes of life with eternal indifference...... Under such a gaze. An instinctive chill rose in the hearts of every councilor, and for a moment the whole body felt like an ice cellar.

"If you say something like that, you'll die!" Acador gave a calm admonition after glancing at the group of new blood magnates who were dominating the lives and deaths of billions of people.

"Yes, since the Emperor's will has been decided. I will never dare to mention the use of troops against China again!" Jabalt secretly wiped a cold sweat and sighed helplessly: "The ministers are just feeling injustice for Lord Mislia. After all, he is an indispensable pillar of the empire, and the only direct descendant of you!"

"What about his killers, bring them in!" Acador's tone and tone still didn't make it audible to emotions such as joy and anger.

Soon, a short-haired girl with scarlet enchantment shackles on her shoulder blades, spine, elbows, knees, and other important parts of movement has been escorted down the steps by two armored guards. Whether it's brutal bone-piercing lock tendon confinement. Or the curse imposed on the shackles, which can ensure that the girl is worse than dead at all times. However, when this seemingly weak girl was forcibly grabbed by the hair by the guards and faced Akado, her eyes were still full of unruly coldness and undisguised killing intent.

The familiar face and eyes made Akado seem to recall something from the dusty long memory, and a trace of inexplicable emotion flooded on the heart lake that had been silent for countless years, which was an emotion called "hatred".

Jabald bowed down to Accardo: "Her name is Zhao Yu, as an innate peak martial artist who is good at assassination, but she professes her skills, and even asks the ghost immortal monk to tamper with her own memory, disguised as a movie star, and it took three years to get close to Lord Mislia, and after awakening her memory, she took advantage of the adult's unpreparedness to stimulate her potential with self-mutilating exercises, and killed the killer ......"

"It's just a little over a century, has he been reduced to the point of being assassinated by an innate martial artist......" Akado muttered to himself, his gaze kept falling on the girl killer named Zhao Yu, "unless...... There's something else going on!"

As soon as the words fell, the invisible moonlight suddenly and automatically condensed into a vine of light with thorns, wrapping around Zhao Yu's limbs, lifting her into the air and sending her to Akado.

"Why do you want to kill Mislia? You Huaxia people should know very well whose descendant he is, and also understand that he has never been the main battle faction. Facing the other side in close proximity, Akado asked, staring into the other's eyes.

"Of course we know very well, we know that your mother and son deserve to die!" The girl's eyes were unusually bright, but behind this brightness, there was a ghostly chill from the deepest part of the earth and an infinite frenzy like hellfire, "If the Martial God returns, the first person who must be killed must be you! Every Huaxia Martial Artist has the responsibility to wipe out this stain on you to maintain the dignity of the Martial God!"

"Brainwashing in a frenzy to resist mind control?" Akado raised his eyebrows slightly, and suddenly stretched out his left hand, and two long, sharp nails on each of his thumb and tail fingers popped out, piercing the girl's left and right temples.

High-level bloodlines can read each other's memories by drinking each other's blood, but Acador has been sustaining itself for more than a century by only absorbing the moon energy, and he doesn't plan to break the ring at the moment, just need to be connected to the other party's bloodline.

But at this moment, a sudden change occurred!

The terrifying power that surged so much that it resonated with heaven and earth, and was so cold that it made everything wither, suddenly erupted on the girl's body. The thunderous blow that almost brought heaven and earth together was not something that any innate martial artist could send out by means of burning jade, but it was definitely a ruthless kill of a heavenly and human martial artist!

At the same time. The blood-colored chains that had bound her body had fallen off inch by inch, not broken by the powerful force. Instead, it fell off automatically, and the chains that fell off were like a blood-colored viper that had been hungry for thousands of years, coiling and strangling Akado madly in the mournful cry of a thousand souls!

For a moment, the wind and thunder, the sound of gunfire and explosions, the sound of incantations, and the roar of the demon accompanied by various fragments flying all over the sky completely broke the inviolable solemnity of the Supreme Imperial Palace. The thirteen councillors all attacked at the same time, but instead of attacking Zhao Yu, they attacked Akado and the guards knights who stepped forward to escort them!

All of the Knights of the Guard have been forcibly erased for serious crimes and transformed into a new bloodline of the Marquis rank of the Bloody Dread Knights. However, in front of the four duke-level councilors who broke out, the twelve knights were pierced through the metal armor by one after another magic crystal bullets infused with blood-killing energy before they could make a move. Under the attacks of various deadly attributes that erupted from within, such as burning, corrosive, explosive, frozen, and energy-devouring, the red rays that flashed behind the visor lost their vitality and gradually dimmed. The other knights were also entangled by the demons summoned by the councillors, and they were unable to move forward for a while, and were quickly annihilated by the concentrated fire.

The nine councillors, including Jabald, coincidentally cooperated with Zhao Yu in launching the most ferocious and deadly attack on Accator. But in an instant, Accator and the entire throne were already in an arc-shaped protective cover. The protective cover is crystal clear and clear, rippling with a layer of subtle water lines, like a deep pool. The acador that shrouded it suddenly became hazy, ethereal, and distorted, like the shadow of the moon reflected in the water. Can't be captured, can't be locked. Any attack against her seems to be in vain.

In a trance, five members of parliament saw their own figures reflected on the surface of the water and mirror. When his image was overwhelmed by all kinds of ferocious attacks and mysterious curses, the terrifying feeling of his body twisting and splitting also raged on him, and his blood could be eaten back for a while. There were even a number of attacks that bounced back in real terms, causing a group of councillors to scramble for a while. As for the envoy who pounced on Acador, he was directly engulfed by the bottomless pool that seemed to be as clear as a mirror. Completely gone.

Although the vast majority of the attacks were focused on Acador, the aftermath still shattered the entire dome and steps of the majestic palace, as well as most of the walls. Huge stones and debris flew and fell in all directions, and the turbulent air currents swept across hundreds of miles, leaving only the smoke and devastation of the former luxury and solemnity.

"Did it work?" After a frenzied attack without reservation, a breathless Jabalt stared at the ruins ahead, able to see directly through the destroyed walls and the overturned dome. This time, after more than 20 years of careful planning and preparation, countless resources were expended, and thousands of simulated assassinations were deduced in advance, whether they would step into the sky or fall into hell, it was all up to whether this first round of raids could achieve the desired results.

At that time, Akado almost copied the thirteen clans of the old blood clan, as well as the family background of the Holy See, and added many exercises and secret techniques from all over the world, especially in China, and after more than a century of cultivation and integration, I really don't know what realm my strength has reached. Many blood clans and humans sincerely regard this Red Moon Empress as the God of the Blood Moon, or the Third True Ancestor. To be the enemy of such an existence, any overestimation and caution cannot be excessive!

"I see, is your treason the real reason for Misria's assassination?" As the smoke cleared, the House of Representatives saw that she was still sitting on the throne with a more or less complete face, and although the protective wall had been hidden, there was still a lingering sense of ethereal illusion throughout her body. In front of her, it was Zhao Yu, who was half-kneeling on the ground, his right arm had been completely lost, and his whole body was completely skinless.

Although she is a celestial warrior, she almost gave up her defense due to her all-out attack, and the attacks of the councilors did not mean much to avoid her, so it would be good that she still had half a breath left.

However, the sacrificial slaughter of the Celestial Killer, coupled with the full cooperation of the thirteen Duke-level Councilors, was obviously not in vain. I saw that an evil chain had been coiled and locked around Acador's left arm, and the blue iron-colored metal skin of the chain had been mostly shattered, revealing sections of tangled and coiled red blood tendons, each of which was connected with blood-colored resentful spirits, as if they were their own life, constantly trembling and pulsating, while unrelentingly drilling deep into Acador's bone marrow, while branching out countless branches to take root on the floor and walls to bind Acador in place. The finely woven blood threads on the surface of the blood tendons are constantly connected to build evil demon scripts, which look terrifying.

Akado's right shoulder has been pierced by a white arm bone. I saw that the edges of the arm bones and metacarpal bones were cut like knives and daggers, like swords and thorns, and there were many oracle bone inscription-like talismans carved out, and the killing aura of extinction was awe-inspiring, and it was terrifying! In order to ensure the success of the assassination, Zhao Yu obviously underwent a series of surgeries and refining on his right arm bone, transforming it into a terrifying killing blade. As for the chains that originally trapped her, it was obvious that they were also hiding a powerful trap against Akado.

"Treason? no, no...... Dear Empress, this is just a progressive coup d'état that conforms to the will of the people and breaks the outdated and corrupt government!" Seeing that the two killer weapons had successfully achieved the expected goal, Jabalt breathed a sigh of relief, and his tone was a little more calm and ridiculous, "I promise that from now on, the empire will truly unify the world in our hands, and usher in the Genesis that truly belongs to the new blood clan!

"Is it because of ambition?" Akado nodded, and then looked at Zhao Yu, who was dying but still holding on, and asked in confusion: "I believe that this group of people in the council can't cultivate a celestial killer like you, and the killing intent that you just burned your life and soul did come from your heart, not controlled or coerced. Don't you really know that if I die, the Empire will repeal the ban and launch an all-out war against China under the manipulation of the Parliament?"

"I know this very well, but I know better what this group of council members is!" Zhao Yu's tone was firm and clear, although weak, "They will only drive the camp that does not belong to them to charge into battle, and they will desperately search for and strengthen their own clan's power in the rear. As long as we can hold on a little bit, the Red Moon Empire will soon fall apart as clan interests take precedence over the state. And in the case of taking care of themselves, the New Blood Clan will definitely tear off the hypocritical veil of 'treating humanity well' and promote the resistance and awakening of all mankind!"

Acadoda frowned slightly: "It sounds like even if your vision really happens, it will inevitably kill a lot of people, will it really be better than the current situation?"

Zhao Yu smiled coldly: "Instead of boiling a frog in warm water, it is better to fight a fish and die in the net! Human beings have never been lambs, and they will neither tolerate the existence of aliens who feed on themselves, nor will they pin their future and destiny on the benevolence and trustworthiness of aliens! Those human beings who are satisfied with the gentle breeding and civilized enslavement of aliens, and even hope that they can become aliens, it doesn't matter how many people die!"

"In other words, do I have to die for the sake of the Blood's complete enslavement of humanity or for the complete liberation of humanity?"

(There will be a change later) (to be continued......)
