Chapter 1571: Cooperation (Asking for a Monthly Pass, Asking for a Subscription, Asking for a Recommendation) Asking for a Monthly Pass!!!
The Killing Sect and Alfred's Vampire Church are really very similar, and they are the kind of situation where everyone shouts and fights, or even worse. For the gods, the vampire species is just too much to hate. They feed on people, but more importantly, after they transform the intelligent race into vampires, then those souls will not be able to return to the realm of the gods, and can only flow to the abyss, hell and other lower planes in the end.
So vampires have lived quite miserably over the years. They don't have the slightest value. The gods focus on faith and soul, neither of which vampires can provide to the gods, and they also weaken the gods' absorption of faith and souls. This makes the living environment of vampires even worse.
It is not easy for a race that has no value and will bring losses to the gods to reproduce to this day.
In the past, vampires were only a small problem, they were very good at hiding, and at the same time, their strength should not be underestimated, and it was too expensive to completely eliminate them, so the gods acquiesced to the survival of vampires to a certain extent, and as long as they didn't make a big move, they wouldn't deliberately trouble them.
Of course, if a vampire is discovered, the churches will not relent.
But now, Alfred actually wants to ascend to the gods, which touches the sensitive nerves of the gods. After all, vampires thrive by turning other people into vampires! This way of stealing faith is simply a foul. Other gods need to be believed, and they also have to preach, organize churches, and so on, and when it comes to vampires, as long as they first embrace other people, new vampires can't do it if they don't believe in vampire gods.
And as a god, expanding one's faith is simply instinctive, and when the time comes, the vampires begin to open their first embrace, and it won't be long before the entire continent will be the world of vampires, and the other gods will basically have no way to live. After all, even if vampires don't believe in Alfred, their souls can only fall into hell and abyss, and they still have nothing to do with other gods, and they can't spread faith among vampires at all!
What's more, what Alfred did in Towcente broke through the bottom line of the gods. So during this period of time, the strangulation of vampires by various churches, including the Church of the Evil God, has reached an unprecedented peak.
Speaking of which, it was also Alfred's bad luck, originally his plan was very good, but he ran into Soram again, which led to his own failure, not to mention being deeply damaged, and also provoked a very powerful hidden force.
Under the joint encirclement and suppression of various forces on the mainland and that mysterious race, Alfred and his followers should not be regarded as all vampires are unlucky!
Vampires are only a marginal race after all, and although they are powerful individually, they can only be killed by the endless search of adventurers and church forces. The Vampire Church has not yet grown and has been forced to hide in a few people and rare deserted places.
But vampires are not really undead, they have to suck the blood of intelligent creatures to sustain themselves, so during that time, the life of the vampire church was very miserable, and even many ancient vampire families began to oppose Alfred's decision to ascend to God.
Because they found that they would not be able to wait for Alfred to ascend to the gods, and they would be extinct! Either starve to death or be killed by someone else!
Alfred was angry at this opposition, but it was useless. Now that the recent situation of the vampire is like this, if there is another infighting, then we will have to play together. So Alfred had to figure it out.
It was also at this time that Adrien's Killing Sect approached them.
For Adrien's Killing Sect, although their situation is not as bad as Alfred's vampires, it is not much better, if it weren't for the fact that many evil gods are peeping at the Killing Priesthood and secretly creating various opportunities for the Killing Sect, the Killing Sect would have been wiped out long ago.
Now, they're walking a tightrope. They fell off the tightrope and died. Walking to the end of the tightrope is also death. So in order for Adrien to find a glimmer of life, he must take a different path, and he needs allies.
And this ally, naturally, could not be the backer of Adrien in Hell.
After all, they are separated by a plane, and even if the hellish side wants to help Adrien, they are powerless. And what hell is asking for him, he hasn't made any progress at all so far, how can he ask for help? Unless Adrion is willing to completely betray the entire plane and carry out a large-scale blood sacrifice to open the spatial passage between Hell and Toriel, so that Hell can directly invade Faeron. In that case, you don't need Adrien's help, Hell can do it yourself.
But if he did, Adrien was finished. Anyway, Adrien didn't believe that he would have any way to survive after the invasion of Hell, and the Hell side would definitely not mind killing him, after all, at that time, he would lose his usefulness. And on Faeron's side, as long as it is a god, it will definitely fight with Adrien. He just waited for the gods to besiege him and beat him to scum!
So Adrien could only seek allies on his own.
It just so happened that Adrien knew Alfred, so the two sides hit it off.
Naturally, the Killing Sect didn't mind giving some people to vampires as rations, after all, that was in line with their teachings. And vampires also desperately need a stable source of 'food', and as for the price they need to pay, this is no longer worth mentioning for vampires.
What is there that you can't give in order to live?
Although vampires are a marginal race, they are still very powerful in the dark world. For example, Adrian's shapeshifters, these monsters are not easy to come by, but vampires have channels. They themselves control a number of dark races, and shapeshifters are just one of them.
And now, things have taken a turn for the worse, and Adrien thinks it's time to deepen his connection with the vampire.
"Cooperation!" Adrien said solemnly.
Alfred looked at Adrien a little strangely.
"Haven't we been working together? And we've done well so far. ”
"No, I'm not talking about this kind of cooperation. It's a deeper level of collaboration! Listen, Lord Alfred, we all know what we are like with each other. We are all on the brink of destruction, and if we want to live, we must work together! Deeper collaboration than now! ”
Adrien's eyes were fixed on Alfred, as if he wanted to see through his soul.
Alfred's eyes glistened with blood, and the corners of his mouth pulled into a cruel arc.
"You want to annex us?"
Adrien shrugged his shoulders and said a little helplessly: "Although I don't want to use this word, it's essentially the same. ”
"Hehe, you're bold." Alfred was angry because he didn't expect Adrien to be so bold. Alfred's transformation into an ancient vampire was not for people but for his subordinates.
But then again, Alfred didn't have much room to refuse this request. Because their environment is worse than that of the Killing Sect. No matter what Ardrien is, there is a glimmer of life, as long as he succeeds in ascending to the gods and gaining a firm foothold, he will be able to have smooth sailing in the future. After all, the god of killing has not never appeared, and now there is another one, for the gods, there is no problem in principle, after all, it is just one more god.
But for vampires, it's different, the gods can't let them! Even if Alfred ascended to God, this situation would not change much. This is something that Alfred did not take into account before forming the church. After all, Alfred was only a vampire before, and he had no access to the secrets of the gods at all, and it wasn't until he formed the church that he understood the gods' position.
Emotionally, though, Alfred was angry, reason told him that he needed to listen to Adrien's advice.
"So, what do we get?"
