"What do you think?" Sean looked at Kane, who looked a little lost, and asked.

"I didn't ...... Nothing ......" Kane shook his head, but the frustration and depression on his face were palpable.

Sean actually knows what Kane is thinking, but he doesn't want to waste time on this topic, and he actually has some disdain for Kane's situation. Because in Sean's cognition, the concept of family affection of the blood clan is generally very weak except for the direct heirs, and it can even be said that every clan member is a competitor as long as it is not the same affiliation.

The fierce and cruel competition within his clan is ten times more than the family infighting in the surface world.

So why Kane has such a sense of family affection, Sean is extremely puzzled.

Because the clan population growth mode of the blood clan is basically divided into two categories: one is the growth of pure bloods, and the other is the growth of the first possession.

The so-called pure-blood growth refers to the combination of two high-ranking blood families to give birth to newborns, such blood members have relatively high growth space and potential value, and their natural abilities are often not too bad.

And there are actually two distinctions between pure-blood clans like this, one is the real pure-blood, that is, the real bloodline of the thirteen clans flowing in the body, according to the words of the surface world, it belongs to the outcast royals; The other is semi-purebred, which refers to two bloodlines that are combined with each other, where one or both are first-timers.

Although on the face of it, there is no difference between semi-purebred and purebred, in fact it is almost impossible to distinguish between the two unless the parents are thoroughly known. However, compared to semi-purebreds, purebred vampires have a special ability similar to the "bloodline talent", and once they awaken this bloodline, no matter which small clan they are born from, they will be immediately accepted back to the thirteen clans to which the bloodline belongs.

In a way, this can also be regarded as a step to the sky. It is a semi-purebred that can never be compared.

As for the growth of the first embrace, as the name suggests, they are born from the bloodline through the way of the first embrace.

The growth space and innate abilities of this type of Bloodline members are completely influenced by the first-timers: some clans are better at fighting, some are better at defending, and some clans have alternative bloodline talents. Like Selena who Sean met before, she is obviously a bloodline who is extremely good at fighting. Therefore, the blood clan infected by her first embrace is often more inclined to the combat aspect, and the growth space will be largely limited by Selina herself - Serena herself is the Grand Duke of the Blood Clan, but this rank is just a special honorary title, and in fact it still belongs to the category of the Duke of the Blood Clan, so the person who is first embraced by Serena has great hope that he can become a Marquis of the Blood Clan.

Serena had told Sean that she could become a duke after her first embrace, but she was actually just fooling Sean.

In order for the first to surpass the first champion, it is often necessary to pay several times more to break through this limit, because it involves a unique law binding of the blood clan - the blood family. This rule means that the first person will become dependent on the first person, that is, if Sean really accepted Serena's first support at that time. Then he will regard Serena as his mother or elder sister, and in front of him, he can only exert half of his ability at most.

The reason Sean would take a fancy to Kane is because this guy is a purebred - and semi-purebrred at the worst.

This is also the reason why Kane's current rank is only a knight, but he has no less than the average lord rank blood clan measurements.

To be honest, Sean felt that Kane was the biggest wonder he had ever seen in his life.

A bloodline that doesn't suck blood?

Sean chuckled and began to look at Kane with interest.

"Dry ...... Do? Kane was a little hairy by Sean's gaze.

"I was just thinking that if you don't usually suck blood. How the hell did you get to where you are today? Sean looked at Kane, judging by his age of two hundred and twenty-seven. This guy should have lived a long time in the blood clan, "Doesn't the body wither?" Don't you blood-sucking blood to survive? ”

"Hu ...... Nonsense! What a misconception of knowledge! Kane's face flushed and he argued, but soon found out what was wrong, "You...... You're not ......"

"I never said I was." Sean laughed, his smile meaningful, "Alright." I don't know much about your bloodline. …… To be precise, I only know about the thirteen clans, but I don't know very well about the habits of life in general. ”

Kane looked at Sean in surprise. He had always felt that Sean must be a very great person, or some kind of big man, from the momentum he felt when he first met Sean. It's just that there has been no evidence to prove it, but at this moment, hearing Sean speak of the thirteen clans where the blood clan is supreme in such a completely indifferent tone, Kane is more and more sure of his guess.

Looking at Kane's appearance, Sean knew that this little guy who was not deeply involved in the world must be making up some strange and wrong knowledge in his head, but he didn't bother to explain.

Of course, the main thing is that his identity can't be explained at all, after all, Sean doesn't know as much about the underground world as he does about the surface. So the only thing you can do is to keep yourself as mysterious as possible, and luckily, Sean has a special skill in how to play a god stick.

"Even if we don't suck blood, we won't die easily, but our bodies will become no different from normal people." The steak that Kane had been waiting for a long time finally came, but he still didn't eat it immediately, but explained to Sean about the basic life support state of the Bloodline, "Sucking blood, just to strengthen our own abilities, but also to allow us to speed up the meat when we are injured. Healing of the body. But in reality, even if we don't suck blood, we can usually live for a long time, and I don't know exactly how long, but I don't feel a weakening of my body functions at the moment. ”

"In other words, the way for you to quickly increase your strength is to suck a lot of blood?" Sean asked.

"Hmm. So to speak...... Right? Kane thought for a moment and said with some uncertainty, "But according to our parents, at the beginning, it was true that any blood could be used, but as the strength improved, ordinary blood could not be satisfied." Because the quality is too low, it takes an extremely large amount of this blood to suck it, and it also requires us to transform and purify it ourselves, so the members of the clan who are in the upper ranks will look for the blood of the stronger ones with more strength and weight. ”

"So, what rank did you start with?"

"Well, baron rank and above." Kane frowned, probably because he had faintness, so he always subconsciously avoided this knowledge, "But start with the rank of the lower blood clan." The superior can accelerate the improvement of his own strength by sucking the blood in the body of the lower. The barons were a rather difficult time, because even if they sucked the blood of the lord and knight, they could not get much improvement in strength. ”

"And what if the Baron sucks the blood of the Viscount or even higher?"

"It is true that you can get a big increase in strength, but this method is very dangerous." Kane replied, "Because it's easy to explode and die, after all, the quality of blood produced by the blood nucleus is completely different." …… If the baron sucks the viscount, it can still be increased if the amount is relatively small. But in fact, there are very few cases in which a baron is able to win a viscount. And if you are in the same clan, there is also the coercion of dependents. ”

"No wonder those barons of your Kappa clan didn't have the idea of beating the blood of the lord of your clan, it turned out that they couldn't beat it." Sean laughed sarcastically. This made Kane's expression look a little embarrassed, "And what about your clan master?" Why not suck the blood of those barons to speed up their rise in strength? ”

"He still has it." Kane nodded, "All the barons of the Kappa clan have to donate a certain amount of their own blood to the clan master every month. Because only the head of the clan can guarantee the safety of the Kappa clan at the moment, even if those barons are not happy, there is no way to resist. Because once the head of our clan dies, our Kappa clan will definitely be swallowed up by other clans as well. ”

"Then why is your clan lord still ......"

"It's the limit." Kane sighed lightly, "Without the offerings of those barons, the lord of the clan would have declined even faster. But for now...... It's just barely maintaining, and it's impossible to become a high-ranking blood clan. ”

"Okay. I've got it in general. ”

Sean nodded, he roughly understood what was going on with the Bloodline's group.

Before there is no rank, it is possible to quickly improve one's strength by sucking a large amount of blood, thus causing physical changes similar to qualitative changes. However, after becoming a baron, the demand for blood increased, which made it impossible for the blood clan to grow quickly by simply sucking blood, and they began to need better quality blood, such as the blood of the strong, only in this way can they grow their strength quickly.

And from the viscount rank, you can increase your strength by sucking the blood that has been purified and purified in the body of the lower. And this is also the fundamental reason why the Blood Clan is so keen on cultivating dependents, because only in this way can they grow up quickly - of course, the Blood Clan wants to cultivate dependents is not unrestrained, they all need to consume the source blood in their bodies, which will keep them in a weak state for a long time.

As for the blood slaves, they will only start to capture when they have created a clan and want to develop their clan power a lot. Because what the blood slave can provide as blood bait is only to give power to knights and lords, it is no longer of much value to the baron.

In addition, the lower blood can also suck the blood of the upper one, but the amount must be controlled, otherwise there will be an explosion and death. And the subordinates of the same clan cannot resist the superiors, because there are restrictions on the laws of blood clans, and this kind of coercion that is completely rooted in the depths of their souls makes their bodies only loyal to this coercion. Of course, if it is not the same clan, there is a possibility of a war, but the suppression of the power class of the blood clan is too obvious, there are only a very few geniuses of the blood clan, and in most other cases, the lower level of the blood clan will never be able to defeat the superior, and this performance will be more obvious when it is in the high ranks.

Sean looked Kane up and down, but in his heart he was already starting to tailor a growth plan for Kane.

Sean had long heard of the cruelty of the underworld, but it wasn't until he saw it in the Kappa Clan's castle that day that he had a deeper understanding.

Kane was tied to a cross stake and couldn't move, and almost all the blood in his body was released, but instead of killing him, he continued to stimulate Kane's blood core, trying to completely squeeze all his strength. Because the baron firmly believed that the secret of Kane's sudden strength was hidden in his blood core, if it weren't for the fact that he was just a baron and could directly devour the blood core, he would have dug out Kane's blood core and eaten it, how could there be such a trouble as bloodletting.

As for the whipping and torture, that was nothing more than the personal pleasure of the Blood Baron.

Fortunately, it was only a baron who caught Kane to extract a confession, and if he was really the head of their clan, he would be able to read Kane's memories by directly swallowing blood and blood cores - this is also a special ability that the blood clan is born with. Therefore, when doing some hidden hooks with the intervention of the blood clan, the attack on the blood clan will directly crush its blood core and drain their blood, otherwise the upper blood only needs to be able to know a lot of things through simple blood sucking or blood core devouring.

Therefore, when Sean did it that day, he dug out the blood cores of the blood baron and the Rubeus follower, and of course all the blood was drained, making sure that no evidence was left, and then he and Kane left the Kappa clan's castle overnight.

Today is the sixteenth day since they left the Kapa Clan Castle.

The two of them are lucky that they don't need to sleep in the wild anymore, and they can even have a good meal - the underworld doesn't seem to have the concept of dry food, and monsters and alien beasts also have their own living ranges, so it's almost impossible for the underworld to get some game.

After all, those clans and other clans that own territories attach great importance to the security of their surrounding areas, and will never allow magical beasts and alien beasts to easily break in. In the same way, the monsters and beasts also have their own territory, and only a very rare part of the wandering species and the solitary species will run around.

So Sean's work to force Kane to suck blood has not been carried out so far.

However, there is at least one piece of good news, and that is that Kane's mental state has clearly changed after the disaster at Kapa.

Of course, it seems unlikely that he will start sucking blood for a while.

But at least he's learned what it takes to survive in the underworld.

In this world, only strength is everything, and after losing power and value, no one will care about your glory and hard work. The underworld is a place that truly emphasizes individual strength, and it has a more naked law of the jungle and the concept of the jungle than the surface world, and it is precisely because of this deformed desire for power that the entire underground world has no order and no justice at all.

Basically, in the general perception of all the inhabitants of the underworld, power is justice, and whoever has the biggest fist is qualified to speak.

In fact, this way of surviving in the underground world is more in line with Sean's character - in the player's society, the law of the jungle will be more obvious, and it can even be said that it is by no means weaker than the underground world. This is also the fundamental reason why Sean was able to integrate into the environment here as quickly as he came to the underworld: especially for a rule-breaker like Sean, relying on his own strong strength to speak would make it much easier for him.

At the very least, he didn't have to pull a tiger skin for everything he did, as he did in the surface world, and then consider the impact of different stages of events.

In the Underworld, there was only one thing he had to do.

If you don't accept it, I will beat you until you obey! (To be continued.) )
