Early the next morning......

After dozens of second-generation vampires left, several ancestors also returned to the cities where their respective tribes were located, and at this time, only Chen Ze, Todd, and Priscilla were left in the huge cliff palace.

After a moment of silence, Chen Ze waved to close the palace gate, and when the stone door was closed, the hall was dark, and then the faint blue light on the dome was reflected to re-illuminate the hall.

"Todd, Priscilla......"

Chen Ze fell from the bronze throne in the air, called them, and asked, "Earlier, you said in the scroll that the American military and official personnel were studying that corpse and...... They're still secretly investigating us, what's going on now?"

"Father's ......"

After the two nodded in agreement, Todd thought for a moment and replied: "That body was transported to a secret base by the military half a month ago, but we got the news too late, and now although we know the approximate location of the base, it is almost impossible to take it out of it." ”

"Why did you take the body out?"

Chen Ze asked with a smile, and then said: "Now that the heart core has been dug out, that corpse is no longer worthless, do you think that human beings can still peek out the true secrets of our clan from this mutilated corpse?"

"No, you can't. Todd shook his head with Priscilla.

"But my father ......"

Priscilla shook her head and frowned slightly, "It seems that the American military did study some clues from that corpse, otherwise they would not have started secretly investigating the existence of our clan after this." And ......"

"If they do derive something deeper from that corpse, we're not going to be able to handle it. ”

"Priscilla, you're thinking too much. ”

Chen Ze shook his head with a smile and said, "Clues, hehe...... They are probably limited to clues, and they are not qualified to obtain more things with their current means. ”

Chen Ze can be said to be very confident in this aspect, he knows very well that the deep secrets in the vampire's body are undoubtedly those elemental inscriptions and life inscriptions.

This is the crystallization of the wisdom accumulated by countless generations of wizarding civilizations, and with the current science and technology of the earth, it is even difficult to find these traces of inscriptions that are enshrined in the depths of genes, and it is said that it is a vain attempt to analyze their principles.

"Hmmm......"

Looking at Chen Ze's sworn appearance, Todd and Priscilla both nodded with relative relief.

"Father's ......"

After a moment of silence, Todd opened his mouth and said, "However, the U.S. military seems to have secretly increased its investigation recently, and they ...... They seem desperate to find us. ”

"Did they find anything?" asked Chen Ze.

"Not ...... yet"

Todd shook his head and responded, "After learning that the body of the descendant was taken away by the military, we immediately became vigilant, gathered the clan and strictly ordered all the second- and third-generation bloodlines to stop converting the descendants during this time. ”

"But it's not a long-term solution, Father, and I think we have to be prepared to deal with it. ”

"Of course you have to prepare. ”

Chen Ze nodded, his eyes narrowed unconsciously, and said, "It's not just us, I'm afraid that at this time, those high-level officials of the US military and the government have already begun to prepare for measures." ”

"I will make arrangements as soon as possible, and I will inform you as soon as the time comes, as for now......"

Chen Ze turned around and took a few steps forward, his figure gradually fading in the eyes of Todd and Priscilla, and finally said, "Continue to implement your previous countermeasures." ”

As soon as the words fell, his figure disappeared without a trace in the main hall.

............

A few days later, in the afternoon, in the research institute of a military base in the United States......

Dozens of researchers in sterile lab coats are scattered around the institute and in front of the experimental equipment, each busy with the work at hand.

Among them was an elderly white researcher in his fifties or sixties, standing in front of a major instrument.

He stared at the electronic screen on the instrument, his hands tapping on it, and the screen was scattered with a series of data formulas and some three-dimensional models.

After more than ten minutes, the old researcher's hands finally stopped.

"No progress ......"

Taking a deep breath, he suddenly shook his head in annoyance and muttered, "It's still the same question as before." ”

"What is the reason for ......?"

"Dr. Wilson......"

Just as the old researcher was scratching his head and talking to himself, a soldier in a military uniform and wearing an anti-bacterial mask came to him and shouted at him.

"Hmmm......"

The old researcher, who was immersed in his own world, Dr. Wilson, as the soldier called him, suddenly woke up, looked sideways to the side, frowned slightly and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Colonel Carlyle asked me to ask you to go out to meet him. The soldier poked his finger out the door.

Dr. Wilson looked in the direction of his finger and saw through the glass door of the institute a middle-aged officer with a moustache standing outside the door looking at him.

"yes, I see. ”

Dr. Wilson nodded in response, then got up, took off his antibacterial suit, and walked out the door.

............

"Dr. Wilson......"

As soon as he went out, Carlisle, a middle-aged officer, glanced back at the busy researchers in the research institute and asked directly, "What is the progress of the recent research?"

"I guess I've disappointed you, Colonel Carlisle. ”

Wilson took off his mask, shook his head helplessly, and said, "The research has been stuck at the previous step, and we have hardly made the slightest progress during this time. ”

"Still stuck at that step......"

Carlisle frowned and thought for a moment, and asked, "Did you speculate on what caused it?"

"There have been several speculations......

Wilson nodded: "You should also know that under normal circumstances, even if a certain creature loses its physical function and dies, the cells in its body will not be completely inactive in a short period of time, but the corpse of this humanoid creature you call 'vampire' is very different......

"All of its cells were in decay by the time you sent them, and we still haven't found the cause of their demise. ”

"During this time, we also tried to stimulate the cells of this creature with microcurrents to reactivate the cell activity, but the results did not go our way. ”

"So......," motioned Colonel Carlyle to continue.

"So we deduced ......"

Wilson thought for a moment and said, "Although the cells or genes of this organism are similar to a large part of us humans, there are also great differences, and it is precisely because of these differences that normal means do not work at all against them.

"And in the case that we can't fully understand its genetic makeup, it is impossible to carry out subsequent cell and gene research, so it falls into an endless cycle. Of course, other than that......"

Carlisle saw that he suddenly stopped, hesitated slightly, and motioned again: "Dr. Wilson, please continue......"

"I have a personal guess ...... other than that"

Wilson nodded and said, "I think that corpse's ripped heart is likely to be the true core of this kind of vampire, as soon as they lose their heart, they will completely die, and their physical activity will also be completely lost." ”

"Dr. Wilson, how much basis do you think your guess is?" Carlisle asked.

"I don't know. ”

Wilson shook his head and said, "But finding a living vampire will prove whether my guess is accurate." ”

In other words, there is no factual basis for your conjecture. ”

Carlisle smiled, muttered in his heart, but said, "Okay, I probably know the situation." Doctor, I'll have to trouble you later......"

"Do you need me to consolidate your data and give you a backup?"

"Yes. ”

Carlisle nodded, "The upper echelons are very concerned about that vampire corpse and the corresponding research, and I have to submit every new research material in time." ”

"I understand. ”

Wilson expressed his understanding, turned around and opened the door of the institute, and said, "I have prepared backup materials in advance, and I will bring them to you immediately." ”

Carlisle snapped in and watched as he walked in and pulled out a USB stick from a computer.

A few minutes later, Carlisle, who had the USB flash drive from him, immediately left the outer hall of the institute and rushed to another place by car.
