Chapter 173: The Covinus Family, the Magical Bloodline
"Why can't I be interested in Serena and secretly have a plan in mind?"
Luke shrugged his shoulders and said that only children make choices, and adults certainly want them all.
"I've adjusted my evaluation of you to the most ...... Reasonable grade, I didn't expect to underestimate you. β
Howard almost squirted the coffee out of his mouth and coughed twice in a row before he regained his strength.
Sometimes, Luke's over-candor attitude makes people speechless and don't know how to proceed.
"Well, I'll admit I'm a little interested in those vampires."
Seeing that Howard had some speculation, Luke simply stopped pretending and went straight to a showdown.
"To be precise, I'm interested in the entire Covenus family."
In his opinion, vampires and werewolves are scum.
One can't go out during the day and is afraid of the sun.
If the regular army of mankind were to launch a washing process, they would be able to take care of it easily.
The other was lost and had difficulty staying awake.
In addition, the silver bullet can deal effective damage to it, and it does not pose a threat.
For so many years, except for the early Middle Ages, when technology was still not developed and the cognition was relatively ignorant, vampires briefly ruled the European continent, and they never had a history worth talking about.
Not to mention, the mages of the three sanctuaries later kicked the vampire down the pyramid of power and kept them in a fixed range like domestic animals.
Later, when science prevailed and guns were born, they could only hide in the corner and draw circles.
At best, it is to take advantage of human greed, as well as the desire for life, to tempt each other to cooperate.
It is basically impossible to regain dominance and get a strong voice.
As for werewolves, not to mention.
For the first few hundred years, they were all slaves of vampires.
The status is lowly and lives a miserable life.
Until the appearance of the chieftain Lucian.
This werewolf is a little able to use his brain, not only leading his people to rise, but also has a deep hatred with the great lord Victor.
Gradually, the hatred grew more and more, like a terrible curse deeply imprinted in the blood, difficult to remove.
This is the vampire and werewolf of the House of Covenus, the feud between the two sides.
They are from the same ancestor, but they have a deep hatred for each other.
"I thought you had a crush on that vampire warrior, but I didn't expect it to be an old man...... Is there anything special about the Covinus family? β
Howard was a little bored, and wanted to complain, but he felt Luke's sweeping eyes, and decisively changed his words and asked.
His grip is still in the hands of the other party, if it is given to someone else, such as Rogers.
I know that I am having fun in Paris, but unfortunately I am almost scared by a female vampire.
Wouldn't that be a lifetime of clear name, and it would be ruined, and it would be difficult to hold up its head in the future.
Usually Howard strikes hard, and he is yin and yang at every turn, sarcastic to others.
But when it is your turn to be the object of the poisonous tongue, it will be very uncomfortable.
"Howard, you're a scientist."
Luke tapped his fingers on the table and said meaningfully: "Alexander Covenas, he escaped the plague of the Black Death, and Hydra believes that there is a secret to immunizing diseases and achieving eternal life in his body. β
"To conduct the experiment, Hydra injected him with vampires and werewolf serum potions to create a half-breed monster."
"You've already said this history once, is there anything wrong?"
Howard frowned, not understanding what Luke meant.
"Absolutely."
The corners of Luke's mouth rose like a blind monk discovering a dot, and he said, "Alexandre Covinans had three sons, and William was bitten by a wolf and became the ancestor of werewolves. β
"Marcus was attacked by bats and became the vampire leader of House Covinus."
"So, here's the problem."
"Why is this happening?"
Faced with Luke's question, Howard fell into deep thought.
Half an hour later, a flash of inspiration flashed in his head, as if he had captured an answer.
"The blood of Alexander Kovinas is amazingly integrated!"
Howard was agitated, he wasn't the top guy in biology.
But as a qualified genius, it is normal to know a little bit of everything.
The body's immune system rejects foreign things.
Whether it's an organ transplant or a blood transfusion.
It's all true.
"Alexander Covenas, who has been injected with serum potions for vampires and werewolves. He then passed on this power to his two sons. β
"It's a recessive gene that reacts with the blood of any living thing to produce mutations!"
"Otherwise, there is no way to explain why William and Marcus became werewolf progenitors and vampires after giving animals a bite."
Howard spoke quickly and urgently, and he instantly understood what Luke wanted.
If all this is true, then the blood of Alexander Kovinas must have an amazing ability to merge with the genes of any living being.
"Bingo!"
Luke nodded in satisfaction and snapped his fingers.
When it comes to using his brain, Howard never disappoints.
"If you say that the genes of mutants can be transplanted into ordinary people through the fusion blood of Korvinas, it is like a commodity on the shelf, which can be selected at will and customized."
Luke began to open his mind and sketch out a beautiful blueprint.
"Or, the genetic traits of animals, such as the severed limbs of geckos, can be used in the medical industry to cure diseases."
"What do you think?"
"Will it change the development of the future and allow mankind to enter a new era?"
Luke spoke excitedly, and Howard listened with emotion.
Despite being a scientist, he was still a successful businessman.
Almost immediately, the huge business opportunities contained in it were discovered.
"This ...... It's a treasure that hasn't been discovered yet! β
When it comes to business, Howard is in good spirits, and despite the two heavy dark circles under his eyes, he doesn't feel the slightest sleepiness.
"Say, Luke, what do you want to do?"
Originally, Stark Industries and Luke cooperated to create a piece of cake that Skynet Company entered the communications industry and planned for future development.
But now Alexander Covinas's fusion blood has opened the door to a new world for Howard.
"Talk to Lieutenant General Kovinas first, of course, and then find the descendants of his third son."
Luke had already made plans, he had already contacted Alexander Kevinas, and the other party was on his way.
"The third son?"
Howard was a little confused.
"Lieutenant General Kovinas has been injected with werewolf and vampire serum in his own body, and he is an out-and-out half-blood."
Luke patiently explained.
"His blood definitely didn't work. And Marcus and William, although these two people are also alive in the world, have become aliens, and their blood cannot be used. β
"The only one capable of having an effect, as a medium of integration, is the third son of Alexander Kovinas, who lives as an ordinary person and whose blood is not contaminated."
Howard nodded knowingly, the first generation of recessive genes is the easiest to activate.
The third son of Covinens, untainted.
When the offspring continue to continue, it will be no different from ordinary people.
"Howard, are you sure you want to get involved? Until that's all done, I'm going to have to look for ...... Werewolf talk. β
Luke asked again.
"Are you ready to step into the world of darkness?"
Howard was stunned for a moment, then nodded heavily.

β¦β¦
The sewers in Paris are an astonishing project.
Hundreds of years ago, this romantic city was the embodiment of dirty messiness, stinking and suffocating.
There are no public toilets in the neighborhoods, people defecate in the open, cattle and horses pulling carts defecate indiscriminately, and butchers slaughter livestock in the streets.
In addition, due to the lack of sewerage facilities, people dump all kinds of domestic waste in the streets and squares, and most of the dirty water is discharged into the Seine.
Poor environment, poor hygiene, made Paris a hotbed of disease.
According to statistics, an average of 800 people died every day from the plague at that time.
In the mid-19th century, after a massive cholera outbreak, Haussmann, the governor of the Seine, and the engineer Eugène Berlange joined forces to prepare a new water and sewerage system for Paris.
After all, no one wants to live in a foul-smelling environment.
This was the first step in the construction of the sewers in Paris.
Perhaps, the sky-high stench at that time left a deep psychological shadow on the people of Paris.
Over the next 100 years, they continued to renovate and upgrade the massive project, eventually turning it into a strange attraction to marvel at β yes, the Parisians later turned the sewer into a museum for opening and visiting.
At that time, the groundwater treatment system in Paris had a total length of 2,400 kilometers of pipes, which was larger than the city's subway.
There are more than 6,000 underground cisterns, about 20,000 sewers, equivalent to one every 50 meters on average, and all of them are connected to the ground by iron ladders.
Parisians even compare sewer works with the Arc de Triomphe and the Eiffel Tower, which they consider to be the pride of the city.
"I never thought I'd one day get into the sewers with a man!"
Howard's voice echoed through the spacious sewers.
He complained on his lips, but he was very excited inside.
After seeing the vampire with your own eyes, you have to come into contact with werewolves!
It's just so exciting!
