Chapter 116: Archduke Habs
"Long time no see, kids"
In contrast to the youthful and handsome faces of the vampire aristocracy, Habs was old and gloomy, as dry as wood, and looked like a Styx ferryman, which made people shudder.
"I don't think I need to introduce too much to this partner of mine, he is the Grand Duke of the Blood Clan, Habs." Although Wendeen's introduction was redundant, it also let Bo Ono on the side know the true identity of this mysterious person.
"It turned out to be someone from your own family, then it's easy to do, it's not that a family doesn't enter the door, and your own people must be easy to talk to." Bo Xiaoye is still ridiculing unscrupulously, but he has already secretly manipulated the "Jade Tiger" to the ancient castle, how can he not perceive this murderous atmosphere?
"Uncle Habs, I didn't expect to see you again." Facing her elders, Shavina still showed some due respect, although she knew very well in her heart what it would mean for her to meet this blood lord again.
"My lovely niece, you don't need to pretend to be respectful to me, you are the head of the noble family, and your position in the blood clan is supreme, even if I am your uncle, but in front of you, I am the one who needs to be humble and respectful." Habs walked forward with a slow step, and bent slightly, saluting Shavena, "Although I have been banished by you for a long time, I have to admit that as the head of the family, you have done a great job, and the wealth and resources of the blood clan in the human world are constantly growing, which also exchanges peace and comfort for our race, Shavena, as an uncle and family, I am proud of you." ”
"Uncle Habs, I don't think you need to say these things against your will, since you know that you are expelled, then you should know that what you are doing is completely contrary to the purpose of all this I have done for the Bloodline, and besides, as an expelled nobleman, you are not allowed to set foot in the territory of any noble, including this, of course." Shavina and Habs seem to maintain a minimum of courtesy, but they exchange lips and tongues with each other, like two king cobras with their heads held high and constantly testing each other, and showing their sharp fangs!
"You are wrong, Shavena, according to the Law of Blood, as the leader of the nobles who led the Blood Clan to defeat the human race, I have enjoyed all the things of the nobility for the rest of my life, including this abandoned castle, which is also the place where my other two nephews and nieces, Oleidu and Alia were exiled, and as an elder, it is only natural that I come to visit my children." Habs's steps continued to advance, slowly but calmly approaching Shavina on the heights.
"Uncle Habs, you need to explain why these humans are at the same time as you? You have violated the forbidden laws of the Bloodline by bringing humans to the forbidden land of the Bloodline, and I don't need to explain what kind of punishment you will receive, right? Facing her approaching uncle, Shavina felt unprecedented coercion, but she still maintained the majesty and arrogance of the head of the family, condescendingly questioning the relationship between Habs and humans.
In the face of Shavena's questioning, Habs's steps stopped, he slowly looked up at Shaveena who was standing on a high place, shook his head lightly and said, "Shavena, as a blood clan, why do you care so much about and even fear the appearance of humans? From ancient times to the present, human beings are our food, our livestock, and even our slaves, vampires are much stronger than humans, in the face of vampires, human beings only have to wait for the blood teeth to suck or take the initiative to offer blood These two ways can be chosen, compared with humans, we are a noble race, and human beings will always be endless fear and unattainable reverence for us. ”
"Don't deceive yourself anymore, Uncle Habs, human beings are no longer the weak and ignorant livestock-like beings of the past, their wisdom has helped them master the power of science, and through this, they have overcome nature, even if we still have powerful abilities that humans cannot understand, but we are no match for human beings for a long time, if we want to continue the survival of the population, what we have to do is not to take the initiative to provoke humans, and even except for some necessary cooperation, do not have any contact with humans, in order to hide the secrets of our existence." Shavenna's tone was noble and cold, but it also revealed a little helplessness, she also looked at humans, but she also had to accept the strength of the human population and the crushing of the vampire clan.
"Child, the noble blood clan should not be so humiliated and humble, it is the weakness and incompetence of our nobles that cause us to be powerless in the face of the arrogance of human beings in this era, this is the shame of the blood clan, and even more the shame of the nobility, we must change!"
"Change? The change you speak of is to take heavily armed humans into the castle of the Bloods, surround the nobles' compatriots, and then say something high-sounding to ease the awkward atmosphere, is this what you call a change, my esteemed uncle? ”
"No, Shavenna, please don't misunderstand me, although our ways are different, but everything I do is for the blood clan to be able to stand at the top of the food chain of this world again, and reign over the human race again, maybe in your opinion, my method is unacceptable to you, but to accomplish the great goal, it is impossible to make no sacrifices, our nobles, as the most powerful branch of the blood clan, have the responsibility to pay their own sacrifices for the future of the entire race." Habs's voice was still old and flat, but it could no longer hide its excitement.
"I don't know what you're talking about, Habs, what I've seen is that humanity has entered the forbidden land of the nobility under your guidance, and you, as a nobleman, have completely acted as a guide and a traitor." Shavina retorted to Habs.
"Shavenna, in the human world, I have a huge business group, created great wealth, and have my own armed forces, but there are some things that I must rely on and rely on the power of humans to accomplish, indeed, the elites among them have unparalleled wisdom and master the greatest scientific and technological power in the world, and the innate mysterious abilities that our blood clan possesses are the things they are most interested in, think about it from another angle, why don't we want to know, The source of their own power, but all these puzzles need to rely on humans to use their science to solve, and, once successful, we can use their results to change the disadvantages of the scarcity of our nobles, and create more blood warriors as powerful as us, at that time, it is the time for the blood clan to rise again! ”
