Chapter 809: Secrets of the Blood Clan
Hearing Iverson's words, Zhang Yang frowned slightly.
Go to Nicole's boudoir, what's this guy up to now?!
Zhang Yang couldn't help but glance at Nicole.
Nicole's reaction, however, was completely unexpected.
Instead of showing the slightest look of surprise, she smiled and nodded, and immediately complied.
Zhang Yang originally wanted to ask something, but finally chose to remain silent.
Even Nicole herself doesn't have an opinion, so why should he do anything else?
What's more, in the dark corner, Zhang Yang caught a glimpse of Abel with a hint of jealousy in the corner of his eye.
It can be seen that this guy with a little black belly actually cares about Nicole very much.
Especially when he heard that Iverson asked Nicole to take him to her room to rest, this emotion was completely written on his face.
Suddenly, Zhang Yang even had a little pride in his heart.
Isn't it something to be proud of being able to make a haughty vampire feel jealous?
Led by Nicole, Zhang Yang stepped on the spiral staircase leading to the cloister on the second floor.
Of course, he hadn't forgotten to deliberately glance at Abel with a defiant gaze, as if to swear sovereignty.
Able's cheeks twitched slightly, but he finally let go of his clenched fist and bowed his head as if humbly.
Abel's reaction made a sneer rise at the corner of Zhang Yang's mouth.
Obviously, this guy won't stop there.
But what does it matter?
In the face of absolute strength, any conspiracy is a paper tiger!
Besides, for such a guy, Zhang Yang doesn't think that he will exchange peace by showing weakness.
On the contrary, taking the initiative to arouse the anger of the other party, let him make mistakes in the chaos, and deal with it calmly is the right way.
On the side of the corridor on the second floor of the castle against the wall, in addition to the well-made swords and armor placed every few meters, there are also intricately crafted coffins.
In the coffin, Zhang Yang could even feel the unique breath of the blood clan.
On the pillars of the cloister, there are many Gothic-style reliefs, and some magic arrays blessed by incantations are hidden in the complex and cold patterns.
Zhang Yang didn't have much research on Western black magic, but he could sense the huge power contained in it.
These spells made of magic are not very clever, but they contain the effects of protection and attack.
It's no wonder that the secret party takes it so seriously.
These spells are at least a thousand years old, and they are clearly not engraved later.
Zhang Yang guessed that this was likely to be an important stronghold of the blood clan in the early days, and it was of great significance to them.
He could also imagine how much they had paid to protect it.
Nicole's room is located in a room in the east attic on the second floor.
From the outside, though, the heavy door felt a little eerie in the dim candlelight.
But as soon as he opened the door, Zhang Yang felt a little surprised.
I thought that even if there would be no coffin inside, it would not be much better, but I didn't expect it to be as neat as a girl's boudoir.
The large bed, the white sheets, and a few cartoon puppets were placed on it.
There was also a faint scent of rosemary and roses in the air, which was the smell of Nicole's perfume.
Opposite the wrought iron bed is an expansive floor-to-ceiling glass window.
Even if you sit at the head of the bed, you have a good view.
The bright windows offer a panoramic view of the castle's gardens.
No wonder Iverson made a point of letting Nicole bring herself to her room.
"Isn't it a surprise?" Nicole asked with a smile.
Although after seeing Zhang Yang's terrifying strength, Nicole looked at him with a slightly different look, but after entering her room, she seemed to have regained some confidence.
"It's quite a surprise, indeed." Zhang Yang nodded.
"That...... Well, I'm really sorry tonight. Nicole suddenly said a word.
"What?" Zhang Yang asked with a smile, of course he knew what Nicole was talking about.
"I shouldn't have brought you here." Nicole buried her head in a low voice.
"Why do you say that?" Zhang Yang asked again.
Nicole thought for a moment and said, "Although you finally defeated King George, I know that if it weren't for the power of that desolate beast in your body, I'm afraid your life would not be saved." ”
"Hehe, in that case, I actually have to thank you!" Zhang Yang smiled, "If you hadn't brought me here, I wouldn't have known that I had such a power hidden in my body." ”
"But ......"
Nicole wanted to say something, but Zhang Yang interrupted her.
He said, "Without saying that, now tell me, what is the identity of that Abel?" ”
In my mind, vampires always give the impression of tyrannical and bloodthirsty.
However, after this contact, Zhang Yang felt that they were not as terrible as he imagined.
However, Abel is an exception.
This guy is very scheming, and he is a little arrogant.
Even in front of Iverson, the leader of the secret party, and the three elders were a little unscrupulous.
He is undoubtedly an alternative in this hierarchical society.
Therefore, Zhang Yang couldn't help but have a strong interest in his origins.
Besides, Abel obviously won't stop there, although he is not afraid, but even out of respect for others, he should always know the details of the other party!
Nicole wanted to ask Zhang Yang why she was interested in Abel, but she decided to answer him first.
So, she pursed the corners of her lips and said, "He is the son of Duke Mowbray I." ”
"Duke Mowbray I......" Zhang Yang repeated, and he felt that the name seemed somewhat familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere.
"The Duke of Norfolk!" Nicole reminded.
However, Zhang Yang still didn't seem to be able to react.
So, she further reminded: "The Ficharon Howard family! ”
As soon as he heard this, Zhang Yang suddenly realized: "It turned out to be it!" ”
Although he already knew that the blood family had infiltrated the British royal family, Zhang Yang never thought that it would be this wealthy family that has been famous in Britain for thousands of years.
Zhang Yang can be said to have no understanding of the British aristocratic lineage, however, it does not prevent him from hearing about the famous families in British politics.
"I'm surprised!" Nicole said happily, "Who would have thought that the current Duke of Norfolk, Mr. Edward Ficharon-Howard, would be a descendant of Able. ”
"It's surprising indeed. However, it also makes sense. I have to say, you guys are well hidden. Zhang Yang complimented him from the bottom of his heart.
"Each generation of Duke Mowbray's heirs is our spokesperson in the British Commonwealth, spanning both political and business worlds, and they all obey Able, and over time, this guy is a little arrogant and domineering, so that he gets carried away."
"Oh, see, in that case, this Mr. Abel is your full head of the government." Zhang Yang said with a look of sudden realization.
"Well, you can say that, so you can say." Nicole nodded and continued, "To be honest, he is indeed very capable and very powerful. It's a pity that his doppelganger technique has not yet been cultivated to the extreme, otherwise there should be one more trainee elder in the Secret Party Senate. ”
"It's a pity that he didn't cultivate to the extreme." Zhang Yang couldn't help but add.
When Nicole heard this, she seemed to understand something, and immediately giggled.
After laughing for a while, she simply told Zhang Yang some things about Abel.
She also apparently knew that Able wasn't going to rest on his laurels.
It's just that she wasn't worried that Able would cause any trouble to a strong man like Zhang Yang, so she didn't care about it just now.
Now, Zhang Yang suddenly brought it up, and she felt that she needed to tell him everything she knew as completely as possible.
It turns out that the Viking witch is not the only recent thing to be discovered.
Ten years ago, she had already been discovered.
It's just that it wasn't archaeologists who first discovered her, but a group of dark creatures - half-werewolves.
Unlike pure-blooded werewolves, half-werewolves are often unable to control their actions due to the more animalistic nature in their bloodline.
They can't even maintain their physical features.
If you drink a little alcohol, you may grow thick hair, and even show sharp canine teeth, long ears, and other characteristics of a wolf.
Especially on the night of the full moon, except for a few half-werewolves who are strong and can suppress wolf blood, most half-werewolves will become impulsive and irritable and fall into a state of madness.
In order to avoid trouble, it is often necessary to take a large amount of moon grass every month to anesthetize the nerves and suppress the crazy wolf blood.
Moon grass is not only difficult to swallow, but also has a lot of side effects on the body of a half-werewolf, and if the dosage or preparation method is wrong, it may even kill directly.
Twenty years ago, a half-werewolf youth accidentally ingested too much moon grass and was about to die, and happened to be rescued by a mysterious wizard passing by.
In order to repay this mysterious wizard, he willingly became his slave for two years.
Under the guidance of the wizard, the half-werewolf youth and twelve other half-werewolves knocked open the graveyard of the Viking witch based on a worn-out parchment scroll.
And he and his twelve clansmen also fell victim to the awakening of witches.
It turned out that this wizard turned out to be Lucas, a long-missing elder of the werewolf clan.
Not only did he fail to awaken the Viking witch, but he survived.
It's just that even he doesn't know it, so he brings back the evil power of the Viking witch.
Because it is the blood of a half-werewolf as a sacrifice, this power can only be unleashed through a half-werewolf puppet.
So, with Lucas's footsteps, this evil force spread among the half-werewolves.
Half-werewolves who come into contact with this power will fall into a state of madness, and possess certain characteristics of a vampire - bloodthirsty, brutal, and trying to destroy everything.
At one point, the bloody storm ravaged several towns in the southern part of the Commonwealth.
Although the authorities sent a large number of military and police, they did not use weapons of mass destruction in the first place for fear of harming innocent people, and suffered heavy losses.
A large number of soldiers who have been scratched or bitten by half-werewolves will soon become new puppets and attack humans if they do not die on the spot.
The situation got out of control for a while.
The top of the Federation had to use the special forces of the special forces to strangle them.
However, the number of Ability Warriors is limited after all, and the opponents are constantly increasing, and there is nothing they can do.
Later, the Vatican and the Holy See also joined in, and finally temporarily contained the onslaught of the half-werewolves.
Unfortunately, the good times were short-lived.
A few radicals in the Demon Party saw the opportunity and secretly joined in to snipe the personnel sent by the Holy See.
Seeing that the situation was about to get out of hand, the Queen of England thought of the Duke of Mowbray, whom she loved and hated.
