282. The Bruch of the Secret Party

But in Karen's eyes, or in the eyes of all the people in the town, Calisit did grow up there until she was eighteen years old before leaving, so it was obvious that Calissit used some kind of magic or secret arts, this is not the point, the point is that Calisit hopes that Zhou Chu can continue to hide her identity for her, although Zhou Chu is unlikely to return to that town.

Meaningless hints, Zhou Chu thought, although there may be some misunderstanding or interesting things between this person and a vampire, but this has nothing to do with him, he has no need to expose Carissit, but such caution is also necessary, so he is also a 'must' polite answer.

"So Captain Cullen is your childhood friend? No wonder he misses you so much, and when he learned that I was coming to Bucharest, he asked me to bring you greetings, as well as his letterhead. ”

"That's a real thank you for you." Calisit smiled and took the letterhead, but instead of opening it immediately, she put it in her arms and diverted the subject.

"I wonder what Mr. Cadias came to Bucharest for this time? Have you ever experienced the unique scenery of Bucharest that you can't find anywhere else? ”

Zhou Chu naturally opened the topic, and expressed his praise on the unique scenery of Bucharest, the huge purple canopy, which is not available in other places, and after Ralmi came back and served the wine, the host and guest could be regarded as having a very happy conversation, and the communication between the two sides lasted until more than an hour later, and Zhou Chu was still unfinished saying goodbye. He also declined Carissette's invitation to visit and play at the Golden Rose Bar.

The reason is that although he understands the behavior of vampires and has no prejudice, as a human being, he should not be too presumptuous in Bucharest, because maybe the eyes of the church are watching, which is not good for himself who has to go west.

Of course, Zhou Chu didn't say anything about the purpose of his westward trip, but only vaguely. probably revealed that he was just a member of the family who came out to experience. Calissit's train of thought continues to be associated with the mysterious country of the East.

It wasn't until she watched Zhou Chu and Lilith, who was known as Lith, board the carriage, that Calissit withdrew her gaze and looked back at her butler, Larmi.

"Larme. What do you think? ”

Larmi acts. It's not just a housekeeper. More often than not, the functions she holds and presents are similar to those of a military advisor and a think tank. So for the mysterious Zhou Chu, she naturally wanted to ask Laermi's opinion.

"A mysterious visitor from the East." Ralmi said, "In addition to this, I can't give any good judgment, although it is not impossible that it is possible to be a visitor from the otherworldly world, but I think that any visitor from the otherworldly world will not choose the Federation of Travania as a place to live, and choose a vampire as the object of friendship, especially when the intelligence reveals that this time the visitors from the otherworld, their target is the spear of Longinus that may appear recently, under such a prerequisite, the best way to do it, Naturally, it is to follow the Holy Roman Empire, or to the British Empire, after all, the Commonwealth of Travania is the least likely to get this gun. ”

"That's true." "I've heard that the upper echelons have gone to great lengths to win over a truly friendly traveler from another world. ”

Ralmi smiled and did not continue the topic, but turned to Calisit herself: "What does Karen's letter say? If it's convenient to elaborate. ”

"It's nothing, just a little bit of missing and feeling for me, and at the same time expressing hatred for my clan, and telling me to be more careful on this side."

Calissit said as she handed the letterhead to Ralmie.

Ralmi didn't refuse, but took it, took it, and after a quick glance, handed it back to Calissit.

"Doesn't it look like he's so affectionate to you that he doesn't think about anything else?"

"Can I think about it?" Kalisit smiled bitterly, "Since the day I was sent to Wittler, I have been constantly reminded and told that everything must be done in the future and interests of the blood clan and family, let alone leave in that way, do you think it is still possible?" ”

Thinking of the story that Calissit had described to herself, Ralmi was silent, and for the past and story of the master she served, it was naturally difficult for her, as a human being, to say anything, whether from an emotional or rational point of view.

"As a vampire, but disguised as a human, and had a relationship with another human, but then got out of it for an excuse, but added to the hatred of that human for the vampire, which led to the future when the two met, Cullen found out that his beloved was a vampire, not only to face deception and cross-racial romance, but also to face the hatred accumulated over the years, what is even more unacceptable is that this hatred is false, and even more ironic, maybe he hates, The vampire who forced his lover to leave may be the lover himself......"

Zhou Chu explained calmly, and when he saw Alesha's dissatisfied expression, he said something again.

"Maybe it's a member of the lover's family."

Alesha's expression was slightly better, but the next sentence made her decide to stop paying attention to this damn guy for at least a moment.

Zhou Chu's next sentence was: "But in any case, his lover must have been aware and obedient from beginning to end, so there is no possibility or statement of coercion and compulsion, and no matter how it is explained, it cannot hide Cullen's cognition that his lover is a human girl, but the actual situation is that she is a vampire, and she was a vampire a long time ago." ”

After talking a lot, Zhou Chu looked at Lilith who was smiling and looking at him with her cheeks.

"What the hell are you vampires trying to do, or are there so many fools like this one in your descendants who have burned out their brains or contradicted themselves?"

Lilith didn't feel the slightest uneasiness because of Zhou Chu's complaints and inquiries, in fact, she didn't seem to care about these bloodlines, she just stretched her amorous lazy waist.

"Who knows? After the third generation, among these bloodlines, there began to be secret parties, demon parties, and several major clans, and cooperation and conflicts between them are also common things, so how can I know what they are thinking when I just came back, but Calisit. Mia...... I think about it, I seem to have heard it. ”

Zhou Chu looked at her, waiting for her answer.

"By the way, the Bruch clan of the secret party, it seems that this girl, in the clan, is also the daughter of a certain person with a high reputation."

Secret Party, Bruch.

Zhou Chu recalled in his mind the information he had gathered in reality, before the arrival of the Middle Ages, vampires had special abilities and immortality, and their number had further increased, causing panic among humans. And the Inquisition, the Catholic Inquisition, also began to realize the existence of vampires and began to hunt and kill. Although they have special abilities and immortality, their thirst for blood and their inability to resist sunlight make it impossible for vampires to withstand the attacks of hundreds or even thousands of people at the same time, and the survival of the entire vampire clan fell into an unprecedented crisis at that time.

Under these conditions, the seven vampire clans began to form an alliance with each other, forming the Camarilla, and establishing the Six Traditions of the Vampires, which required the vampires in the alliance to be observed forever. In addition to the secret party, another alliance of vampires is the demon party, and the entire alliance of demon parties is controlled by the two clans of vampires. The Demon Alliance does not recognize the Six Commandments of the Secret Party, and their means of rule are mainly force and blood. Legend has it that the battle between the demon party and the secret party has been going on all the time. Clashes between the two partisan communities have also occurred from time to time.

Although there are four other clans that remain neutral in the fight, this is not the focus of Zhou Chu's attention, the focus is on one of the core of the six precepts of the secret party, which is to escape from the world, and their attitude towards human beings is also relatively friendly, and may even have a heart of coexistence.

It's just the Bruch clan, Zhou Chu feels a headache again - generally speaking, the Bruch clan is the most suitable clan for fighting in the blood clan, and at the same time, the members of the Bruch clan, their beliefs and concepts are also among the most complex in the blood clan.

No other vampire clan has as many members as the Bruch, as many anarchists and anti-authoritarians, and there is a joke that every night when the moon rises, one of the Bruch members leaves and betrays the Secret Party.

The three factions of Bruch are divided into the Hermits, the Innovators, and the Neutrals.

The Hermits, as the name suggests, are the demons of this faction, who do not comment or criticize everything, but do not respect any institution or authority, they simply obey the hidden precepts and protect themselves so that they can survive for a long time.

The Innovators, on the other hand, advocate drawing wisdom and guidance from past history to unite all clans and build a new vampire kingdom.

As for the neutrals, they will not be in seclusion for themselves, but they will not blindly innovate and try to be leaders, they will be willing to work together for the future of their clan, but they will not demand that others obey their commands, as some power-hungry people do, but at the same time, they will not be dizzy to serve others just because of the agitation and instigation of one side, they are committed to and pursue the perfection of body and mind, so as to work for the future they approve of at any time.
