XXXVIII. The Price of Vanity
Bellé felt the grief and fear of Constance at that time.
Constance saw a prime-old Bloodline leap up the hill and slam the sealed boulder with the force of an elephant's ram, causing him to bounce back and break most of his bones.
She saw another ancient Bloodline summon hordes of dead corpses to storm the sealed boulders, but it was useless, and Constance suspected that even explosives would be useless.
The Bloods banded together and tried to chisel through the boulder with tools from the dungeon, and they also failed. They began to look for other exits in the dungeon, and Constance knew that they would not succeed, and that the ritual of Cappadocia would not make such a simple mistake.
The Bloods begged their ancestors to hold up their hands and not admit their guilt, but Constance knew otherwise—they were all sinners. Cappadocia built some large cities between the mountains, and these self-righteous nobles of the blood clan committed unpardonable sins in the cities, and they treated humans like animals were treated by humans.
The ancestors were right to do this, these sinners deserve to die, these people deserve to be reduced to cattle and food, but what about Constance herself?
She loves humans, she treats them well, she treats them as her own children, it is true that she also sucks blood, but she never kills anyone for sucking blood, she helps the poor, she helps the weak, when humans are sick, she gives them money to go to a doctor. When the weather was cold, she prayed for humanity that the catastrophe would soon pass.
Why does a loving father treat him like this?
Is this his trial?
Constantia knelt on the cold stone slab and began to pray.
She is the daughter of Cappadocia, and the other clans are inferior to her, but she is actually very young. Her immortal life began twenty years ago, she was strong, but they didn't know, they just knew that she looked weak.
They propose to torture Constance because they know how much Cappadocia loves her, and if they do, perhaps Cappadocia will not bear it, and if they come forward, they will have a chance to escape.
Constance understands her predicament, and she doesn't intend to sit still. She could stand up to the wicked and kill them as an example, but she couldn't risk provoking everyone, she couldn't be a match for all the Bloods present, and there were elders who had lived hundreds of years to stand up to her.
She needed to strike first, to unite the forces among them that she could unite, and she had to lie and make them believe her.
Constance had never lied in her life, but it was easier to do than she thought.
She secretly finds some young and strong Bloods and tells them that she knows how to escape, and this whole thing is just a test for Cappadocia, and her presence is to act as an arbiter, and if they survive this arbitration, they will be given the opportunity to lower their rank.
For the blood clan, lowering the rank is a noble reward, a sixth-generation bloodline can never compare to the fifth generation, that is not only the level of identity, but also the strength of the strength, each lower level of seniority, what is obtained is unimaginable power.
The Bloods were persuaded by her to promise to help her, and drank her blood to become her slaves. Under her covert command, they began to kill the Ancients of the Bloodline. She had already done so before the rest of the Bloods had begun to join forces.
It seems like that's nature.
In fact, she knew all about the well-known elders of the Cappadocian tribe. Her Bloodline father tells her that you must keep an eye on your friends, and even more so on your enemies. Cappadocia would tell her about the character, preferences, scandals, and grievances of each member of his people, which she had only listened to in the past, and had never thought of taking advantage of it.
But now is not the time to play the game.
She plotted all the time, spread rumors, stirred up disputes, created panic, consolidated her power, flaunted her strength, and used her knowledge of the elders to win them over or divide them, she devoured the souls of her fellow citizens with cruelty, and rewarded the young Bloods for draining the blood of the elders and lowering them in rank.
After ten days in captivity, the cave elder died, and the place fell into Constancy's control.
She thinks she's passed the test, but why hasn't her father come to release her?
The Bloodclan has a curse in its body, it is a beast that desires blood, and when the Bloodclan commits atrocities and loses their humanity, the beast will be ready to move, and the Bloodclan will completely lose control.
Constance had fallen, her mind was completely in the hands of the beasts, and what about the men she had taken? They are still in a desperate situation, and her lies will eventually be exposed, and by then, she will face a group of furious berserkers.
She was hungry, their situation was not improving in the slightest, and she knew that she would inevitably need to feed on their blood.
They had been lords of Europe, who had reveled in the blood of men and enjoyed endless pleasures, but within ten days, they were about to become a pack of mad dogs that tore at each other.
When the Bloodlines are weakened and desperate, they can choose to enter the Eternal Sleep, which is like a human vegetative person, and the Bloods cannot decide whether they will wake up. If it was a simple famine, Constantia could have escaped it in this way.
Not now, as long as there was one of these people left, she couldn't use such a method.
She must be the last survivor, even if she has to commit a heart-wrenching crime.
Before losing her mind, she hid alone in the darkness and prayed to her father, but this time, a voice answered her.
She asked who was the owner of the voice?
He told her that he was an angel of death.
Since she is a believer in death, how can she not spread death?
.....
Belle could no longer feel Constencia's thoughts, and the Azrael's masterpiece had fully awakened.
The fallen archangels were looking for their spokesmen, and Belle looked at Longinus' hand and felt that his luck was not too bad.
Norris's defensive line was broken through by Typhon, Christina, and Malacheni at the same time, and he retreated to the coffin in a hurry, using the last of the Seal Stone to create a transparent white barrier.
That bought him time, but that's what Constance was waiting for.
Norris pushed the lid open, he thought that the Bloods in the sarcophagus were still asleep, and he could drink her blood without any resistance. Even if she wasn't asleep, the Seal Stone would protect him.
However, he was mistaken about both things, Constance had awakened, and the Sealing Stone had failed.
A pale hand stretched out from the sarcophagus, and long nails pierced Norris's neck, and in an instant, Norris quickly dried up like a deflated ball, becoming a skin on the ground.
Tifeng, Christina, and Malacheni stopped their attack, shocked by the scene, and focused their full attention on the sarcophagus.
Constantia rose from the sarcophagus, a pale lady carved out of alabaster, her long hair disheveled, her clothes unclothed, and her vicious gaze at everyone present.
She was still hungry, and eating her relatives had become her instinct.
Malacheni recognized who she was and asked, "Constencia?" You... It's you? How could it be.... What's really going on here? ”
Constantia walked towards Malacheni in a ghostly posture, and even the terrifying-looking Malacheni shuddered and retreated.
She exclaimed, "What did Father do to you?" ”
Constance replied, "Why are you so lucky? My sister? ”
Malacheni said, "Lucky? Look at me now, do you call this lucky? ”
Constance said, "I was betrayed by my father, what about you?" ”
Malacheni replied, "I died at the hands of those I love, do you want to compare who is worse than me?" ”
"No," said Constencia, "I am just still hungry, and it seems as if I can never fill it." I'm sorry, my sister. ”
In an instant, she had bitten Malaceni on the neck, and Malaccheni wailed and tried to escape with ashes, but to no avail. Constantia sucked the last of Malacheni's last demon blood, and her body shattered, this time not an escape trick, but the final death.
Constance looked at Typhon and Chris, and the two of them quickly jumped backwards, away from the kiss-eating witch.
They knew they couldn't resist her, they were nothing more than food in front of her.
Ti Feng said: "Ancient one, we have no grievances with you! ”
Christina said, "We are enemies with the Giovanni clan too!" No ill will towards you. ”
Haven't they gotten it yet? Can sheep crow in front of humans, can humans stop them from using them for food?
Belle looked coldly at this small and ridiculous farce, the giant beast would eventually capture Constance and find traces of the Morning Star from her, but he could wait, wait for the farce of the Bloods to end.
Constantia attacked Tiphon, who emitted a tidal wave of blood, her sword sliding through the air like a giant python, and Constance easily shattered the blood wave. Her attack is simple, not necromancy, not even a bizarre trick of the Bloodline, but with an unusual rage and power.
Her fingertips stretched out long bones and stabbed at Tiphon, just as Christina's golden sword light struck Constasia. The blow had no effect on her, but Tiphon escaped with the opportunity.
A force erupted from Constancia's hands, and Nana's screams were filled with pain, and she fell to the ground, her bones broken.
Lamia tossed the thermite bomb into the air, then exploded with her gun, enveloping the beastly pale maiden. But she quickly burst out of the flames, and in the blink of an eye, she struck Tiphon, just a fraction of a second from her heart.
Lamia kept shooting at Constantia, which caused Constantia to leave Typhon behind and lunge at Lamia.
How can this weak human being, like dust, survive under the hands of demonic creatures?
At this moment, Philip blocked Constencia, his hand stained with a black shadow, and gripped her wrist tightly.
Constantia freed his other hand and grabbed at Beler, but Bellier threw her out, and she flew at least two hundred meters away, crushing the buildings along her path like sand.
If he wanted to, he could destroy the mountain.
Belette couldn't help but smile, it felt great to show strength to the small, he was a great demon after all, and he also longed for vanity, for faith.
Tiphon, Chris, Lamia, and Wastebell looked at Belette in horror, still unaware that this was no longer Longinus.
This is not to save people, Belel just doesn't want Lamia to hurt and wake up the saint who has just stopped, and destroy his own revenge thread.
Belel summoned his schools of fish, his deep-sea beasts, his Leviathans, and the entire cavern had become his ocean.
Tifeng asked, "Fishbone, what did you do?" The tremor in her voice pleased Belette.
Belette replied, "I told you that I had been hiding it all along, do you believe it now?" Duchess. ”
