21 teams
For dinner, everyone who had gone out came back one after another, including Grande's neighbors. What left Zach speechless was that Andrew and Frank made an appointment to continue tomorrow.
Cyrus also came back once, dragging a cart of blood, which slightly frightened Zack, "This is Mokawi's cocktail blood, humans, animals, and alien ......" Cyrus was explaining the composition of these bloods, "Mokawi can make her ...... high"
Frank didn't even touch it, "When is that nerve not high?"
Zach told Cyrus to go home, get some rest, and go to work tomorrow as normal.
Louise also returned, looking in a good mood, and brought back a lot of goods, clothes, daily necessities, food, etc. Anyway, Grande didn't need it here, so he took it to the employees in the living quarters. You don't need to thank the people in the living quarters, it's not Louise's money anyway.
James also returned, as he did every time he came back from work, as if the whole world owed him money, not to mention.
Alice and Maya, who ended the first day of school, seemed to be in a good mood, and asked Zach for money as soon as they came back, "Tickets for this year's high school spring league~"
Zach gave.
When these daily tasks were over, Grande was quiet again. Frank joins Zach and sits on a bench on the back porch, "Why don't you go watch TV with your Louise?" Frank asked.
"I don't understand. Zach replied because Louise was obsessed with republican television shows she couldn't understand.
"Tutoring your sister with her homework?" Frank's question turned out to be a daily routine.
"I'm not going to do it. Zach continued to answer, smiling at Frank, "High school subjects are beyond my knowledge right now. ”
"Hehehe. Frank laughed for a moment, "I understand this era a little bit." ”
Zach didn't know what Frank was going to say and gave a listening look.
"The people here, don't understand the life of the people there. This, corresponding to the republican show that Louise watched, "Adults, do not understand the knowledge acquired by minors." This corresponds to Alice's homework.
At first, Zach agrees with this conclusion, but when he thinks about it, he feels that Frank doesn't need to think of himself as the standard of the times. After all, there are people who know other Chinese languages, and there are adults who know high school knowledge.
Frank didn't give Zach a chance to refute, and continued his conclusion, "In this era, people's insights are becoming broader, and they already know that there is a different life on the other side of the world. At the same time, the people of this era have a long-term vision, and within a dozen years, there is new knowledge that needs to be learned by minors. Frank glanced at Zach and kept smiling, "Strictly speaking, at every moment, there are outdated people who have not kept up and have been left behind by this era. ”
Zach didn't know what Frank was going to say, and continued to listen.
"Those who are outdated, not dead, are still alive. The smile on Frank's face was even bigger, "Like you." "Frank is saying that what high school students are learning nowadays or the republican language and culture is useless to life, isn't it? It's just useless for Zach.
Same as above, Zach still thinks that Frank should not use his own samples for analysis, but this conclusion does not seem to be wrong.
Frank suddenly changed the subject, squinting with a smile, "You know, in the past, when the names of the Thirteen Clans did not exist, and when the vampires lived on the original continent by their own bloodlines, who found out that they wanted to obtain the human class and fight for more living space?"
Zach is Toredo, and we know that Toledo was a nobleman, so Zach's answer is, "My father." ”
"Wrong, it's me. Frank smiled, "Who do you think started the tradition of the Lesenbra clan to pursue power~hehe, it's me~"
Zack was a little surprised, because Zack understood the benefits of vampires occupying the upper echelons of the human race, but he didn't know that it was actually the ** of the Lesenbra clan ancestor in front of him who started all this.
"You look surprised~"
"I am. Zach nodded, but quickly shifted his gaze, "But now it all makes sense." Torido was not the only vampire to gain nobility, but he was the only clan to maintain the vampire's reputation in human society. "Zach used to clean up foreign vampires.
Frank also nodded, "Your father is very ......" Frank probably didn't think of the right words, waved his hand, and skipped it, "Your father is the second, if I'm not mistaken, the Lefro ancestor is the third, the fourth, it's Fanzhuo, and the fifth, it's ......" Frank was recalling, this time span might be a thousand years, "I can't remember, it's a dying bloodline anyway." ”
Zach is now curious as to why Frank suddenly said this. In the afternoon, he and Andrew had been talking about werewolves, and Zach felt that if Frank wanted to talk, the topic should at least be werewolves. The perception of the era at the beginning is already very erratic, and the current topic is going to Zack and it is completely impossible to guess the follow-up.
"Initially I felt the pressure, gained power, and what I enjoyed was that my access to food expanded to the whole country. But your father seems to have enjoyed the same extended social circle. ”
Zach blinked, if that meant that power would bring Lesembra the pleasures of drunkenness, and Torredo better relationships. Obviously, it was natural for Frank to feel stressed at the time. Toledo is bound to surpass Lesenbra in the acquisition of power.
Well, it looks like the relationship between Lesenbra and Toledo has set the tone for a long time...... Zach was wrong.
Frank continued, "But soon I found out that Torredo was the clan I didn't need to worry about, and Van Zhuo turned around and wiped out the clan that was chasing after his ass, and then dragged down Revro as he was advancing. Frank paused, looked at Zach, and smiled, "Easily walked the way out of Toredo's way and stood in front of me." ”
In this process, Zach can only rely on imagination, after all, this is talking about the road of power of a vampire clan, blood and flesh? no, blood and ashes, it is bound to pile up on this road.
Zach didn't know about these old things that happened before he became a vampire, so he could only remain curious, "There wasn't a war between Fanzo and Lesenbra, did it?"
"Nope. Frank shook his head, "I listened to your father's advice and gave way." ”
Zack was wrong before, and Lesembra used to be a friend who was willing to listen to Toledo's advice~
Frank had a smile on his face, "Then I'll offer Fan Zhuo with your father and let him enjoy his power......" Looking at Zack, "Okay, it's Torredo for Fan Zhuo and me, I just said, I want power only for one thing~" Enjoy.
Well, it's history, and Zach has no right to express helplessness, so he can only comment on the facts, "Because of the need to support two consumption clans, Torredo can only try his best to stabilize the public opinion of vampires in human society and clean up the scattered vampire foreign race." ”
"It sounds like Toredo did all the hard work, but we're a good combination. ”
"How?" Zach was genuinely curious.
"Fan Zhuo wants power only because Fan Zhuo thinks that he should have power, he is noble, and there is power in this world, no matter what it is, he has to have it, even if it is just to sit on it. I want power just because I like to use it, power allows me to decide what food is in my cup, there is power in the world that allows me to get the food I want, I need to have it, I want to use it. He looked at Zach with a ...... look on his face Kindness, "You come and tell me, what is power to Toredo?"
Zach frowned, "Give vampires a better living space......"
No one interrupted, and Zach himself shut up. It feels like Miss Beauty Pageant says 'world peace'.
Zach thought hard before replying, "Nothing." Looking at Frank, "If anything, it's Torredo's proof." ”
"Exactly. Toredo doesn't want power~" Frank smiled, "Toredo just enjoys the process of gaining power~ How do you prove Toredo's relationship with a general? How do you prove Toledo's relationship with a Chancellor of the Exchequer? Toledo has the power to collect taxes. How to prove ......" The example is long, not repeated, skip to the end, "In those days, your father proved that he was Toredo in this way. Now you're doing the same thing. ”
Zach is the same now?Can Zach command the army in Patton?Can he influence taxes??
No.
But what Zach can, heh, can't do more. The proof of being Toledo is already plastered with Zach.
Zach looked at Frank, his face was a little unsure of whether to laugh or helpless, "Frank, what do you want to say." ”
Frank suddenly stretched out his hand, "I want to officially invite you to form a team. The tone is also very formal, so don't laugh, "The world is different from what I am familiar with, and you are the only object that I can observe and receive the world with peace of mind." "That...... Although it can explain the reason why Frank used Zach as a template to understand the era just now, it is still a bit serious, and Frank was surprised by Zach again, because the later words are "I met Ethella." ”
What? What does this have to do with Ethra.
Frank continued, "Do you remember what I said when I first came here and commented on Acera, a woman can't get too many rights, and it will make it impossible for a man to live. "Uh, that conspiracy theory. But that's not why Frank is saying this here, "I remember your answer at the time was that society doesn't give much power to a person, whether it's a man or a woman. "Do you remember, don't think about it if you can't remember, listen to Frank.
Frank: "You're already dangerous, because of your Torredo nature, you've gathered too much power on you, and you've become the limit of what you can tolerate in this day and age. Frank looked at Zach, "Everybody loved your father once. Your father can even recommend new vampire bloodlines to the vampire clan (Thirteen Clans) summoned by the Holy Lord, which is a testament to how popular your father is. But now even the detective who lives in your house won't say he loves you, do you know why?"
Zach has been forced to the point where he can only say "why?"
"Because in the process of being yourself, being Toredo, all the power that you don't care about. Frank is saying these things very seriously, and he must emphasize, "It's all on you." ”
Zach blinked, "The power I get from being myself is not on me, should it be given to someone else." ”
"Of course it should, it should be given to me. Again, Frank was serious about inviting the team and staying in front of Zach, "Let's team up and get back to the glory of Lesembra and Toredo." ”
"Oh. "Zach isn't confused, he's a little ...... Somewhat...... "Just like in your day, I'll do the coolies, and then give you the power to use, well, or give it to Fan Zhuo to sit on?"
"Fan Zhuo is not here, we can find a replacement later. Frank was still serious, "I think Mokawi is good. ”
Zach continues to be sluggish, so he must say the logic that appears to make it easier for him to understand, "So Toledo enjoys the process of gaining power, Lesenbra enjoys using power, and Mokawi enjoys sitting on power?"
"yes, that sounds good, right~" Frank had a Mimi smile on his face, as if he was genuinely happy.
Zach looked at Frank, "Where's the good??"
There was a hint of disappointment on Frank's face, "Didn't you understand what I said so much?"
"I understand. Zach frowned, "But where is the good? The power that my father acquired is the power of a country, and I accumulated it at Barton, and to put it fairly, it is just a human deal with everyone." What are you going to do with other people's relationships with me?"
"For example, because of your relationship with Pochiquinn and the wizard Muen, I can get the regular ecology of the current werewolves from their son Andrew. Frank actually replied seriously, "This is information that the Demon Feast can't get, and it's up to you, I can." Frank looked at Zach seriously, "And to be honest, you don't ask these questions about werewolves, right, Benjamin's brother Zack, you cherish your relationship with Benjamin too much to risk ruining it with the topic of werewolves, right?" ”
Zach opened his mouth, as if suddenly, "You, what you said makes sense. ”
"It's not a reason, it's a fact. Frank continued earnestly, "Once I, your father, Fan Zhuo, was able to occupy the upper class of the human race so peacefully, because of this tripartite combination. The conflict of interests of our three clans is perfectly balanced in such a distribution of power. If it weren't for the Holy Lord summoning the Thirteen Clans and forcing us to give up everything we had in the Origin Continent, our power life would have lasted forever. ”
Zach was quiet for a moment and took Frank's hand, "Okay, team, official." ”
What is the difference between the formal teaming up and the 'friendship' that Zach and Frank have already reached? The quotation marks can be removed.
