Chapter 221: Proposal
"Don, we are here today, in addition to completing this transaction with you, there is one more thing I want to entrust to you." Watch as Cole and Jacob disappear behind the door with Pearl. Elijah looked at Tang Bai with a special look in his eyes.
Klaus sat loosely on a single sofa alone, sunk deep into the sofa, holding his chin with one hand, silently watching Elijah and Tang Bai negotiate.
"Huh?" Tang Bai raised his eyebrows, stretched out his hand and made a gesture to Elijah to continue.
"Can we get some help from you?" Elijah licked the corners of his lips with the tip of his tongue, his arms propped up on his open knees, leaned forward, and his eyes met Tang Bai's.
"Help?" Tang Bai was surprised, and seemed a little surprised by Elijah's words.
"Yes, help!" Elijah affirmed.
"What kind of help? Help you solve that impending trouble? Tang Bai was silent for a moment, his mind spinning wildly, speculating in his heart about what Elijah and Klaus might ask for.
For the immortal ancestors, they lacked nothing.
The troubles and struggles that ordinary humans have are too far away for them. Since the day they were transformed into vampire ancestors, they have been completely different from the things they needed to think about and worry about before they were transformed.
They don't need to worry about their lack of food, they don't need to worry about getting an incurable disease, and they don't have to worry about the day when they will watch themselves, their relatives and friends grow old step by step, and then they will die step by step, and finally the Grim Reaper will wield his scythe to harvest souls and take their souls away from their bodies.
They don't need to feel that kind of cruelty, because their ancestral family is immortal. Their blood can also give eternal life! Everything that ordinary humans have been striving for is at their fingertips. For thousands of years, they have seen the struggle and weakness of human beings.
Compared to humans with limited lifespans and weak bodies, they are much stronger as vampire ancestors. But that doesn't mean they don't have trouble. And their biggest trouble right now is their father! The man who became a vampire hunter and the most powerful vampire progenitor in the family.
"Yes! If we had a choice, we wouldn't want to live that fugitive life again. We long to be able to settle down. Elijah looked sincere.
"You think I can help you?" Tang Bai spit helplessly to Elijah, who had a generous and sincere look. With his current strength, he didn't have much pressure on one or two ancestors, even if it was a strengthened ancestor.
However, from the very beginning, Tang Bai did not have the will and intention to participate in the housework of the ancestor family.
"You're strong enough." Elijah straightened his waist, and Klaus on one side looked with intense unhappiness, but strangely endured his emotions and maintained his silence.
"Yesterday was our first meeting, and it wasn't a pleasant one." Tang Bai's eyes glanced at Klaus, whose face was gradually darkening.
"If you're mad at our rude behavior yesterday, then I'm sorry." Elijah said.
"The deal between us ended just now. I have unconditionally told you the news of your father's coming, and this has helped you. More, please forgive me for not being able to do anything more. Tang Bai directly rejected Elijah.
Tang Bai also needed the ancestral father to maintain pressure on his sons, so that they had to flee again and again, and they couldn't spare too much energy to disrupt his plans. How could he possibly accede to Elijah's request to help them deal with their first father?
That didn't match his original plan.
Unless Klaus and Elijah were willing to support his plan unconditionally, and would always be on their own.
But is that possible?
Elijah might be able to do it, but Klaus? Rather than believing that Klaus would keep to himself, Tang Bai preferred to believe that vampires were pure vegetarians. For the sake of strength and power, the ambitious Klaus will definitely stop at nothing.
Without considering the consequences, if you have to pick an ancestor to start, Klaus is definitely the first in Tang Bai's mind.
Of course, this is only without considering any consequences at all.
If Tang Bai didn't want to have no manpower to use, then he couldn't really kill Klaus. Because if you really get rid of a vampire ancestor, then you will kill a whole bloodline of vampires by the way. Tang Bai didn't know if the three-leaf grass of life and death had an effect on the vampire ancestors, and if it did, those vampires who were linked together with the bloodline and died together would also be resurrected.
In the Ancestral Family, Klaus and Cole are the backbone of the vampire bloodline. Tang Bai guessed that at least half or more of the existing vampires were related to the two by blood.
"You need witches' spellbooks, you're collecting them." Elijah was not too surprised by Tang Bai's rejection, nor was he discouraged. The transaction between them is a matter of bargaining chips. As long as their side can come up with enough chips, Elijah believes that Tang Bai will always try it.
"We can help you. Help you collect those spell books. We have walked through most of the land of this world, and we know very well the habits and places where witches live everywhere. Whether you want to collect those spellbooks or one of the spells. We can all help you. Elijah promised.
"I still refuse, I can't help you for the time being." Tang Bai still shook his head. Elijah was a man of his word as long as he didn't threaten his family, but his siblings were different. Klaus, in particular, only chooses what is best for him, but does not care too much and keeps any promises.
Although Klaus also had an unknown number of vampire subordinates, Tang Bai still planned to follow his plan. Witches' spellbooks must be collected, but the role of witches' gatherings should not be underestimated. It was an active encyclopedia of magic that could answer any questions Tang Bai had, as well as expand his horizons and deepen his understanding of witch magic.
"You can! It's just a spell! That spell that Klaus wanted to break your neck, but the damage was borne by himself. All you need to do is apply that spell to any of us. We can figure out the rest ourselves. Elijah looked serious. (To be continued.) )
