Chapter 121: Blood Experiment
"The so-called bloodline is actually like the building blocks in the human body, and the factors passed down from parents constitute every characteristic of the human body. Hair color, skin color, height, weight, personality, diseases, these are all made of the building blocks in the human body, in other words, as long as you can know that a person's body is made of those building blocks, then it is completely possible to create an identical person. β
"Of course, there are so many and so many of these building blocks in the human body that it is not an easy task to gather the factors needed to build a person, hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands, and the cost of making a person may be thousands of lives. β
"But fortunately, there is a shortcut, the child always inherits most of the factors of the parents in the body, although not necessarily all, but compared to looking in the crowd, the number of people required for this method is very small. β
Manfred looked kindly at the children in front of him, the eldest of whom was no more than eleven or twelve years old, and their hands and feet were bound by ropes, and their mouths were gagged with strips of cloth. The poor children all looked at Manfred in horror, even though he had now changed his horrible appearance, even if he spoke in a gentle tone now, but these children still felt extremely afraid of him, not only because of what Manfred had done at this time, but also because of the deep evil aura in him.
"You're still as bad as ever. Young walked in and was not at all surprised to see Manfred's new appearance.
"Thank you to our Mr. Herbert!" Manfred said with his hands outstretched, the corners of his mouth curled up to the root of his ears, "If it weren't for the information he provided, I would have had to work hard to find these children!"
Young glanced at the poor children, who were now in such a mess, but in fact their identities were extraordinaryβthey were all Beria's illegitimate children.
"What a lovely childβ" Manfred pulled the scalpel out of his kit, his smile was bright, but the children trembled with fear, "Laugh, it won't hurt." β
"Time is running out. Young reminded Manfred that he was not in the mood to watch Manfred's disgusting flesh and blood performance, and that their time was really running out now, the Home Office building was almost overwhelmed, and in a few moments, the entire building would collapse due to the temperature difference caused by the fire and the collapse of the weighing structure.
"I know," Manfred didn't look back, concentrating on gesturing with a knife on an eight-year-old boy, "don't let anyone bother me, you shouldn't lose to Count Jericho again this time, right?"
"Hmph. Yang Leng snorted, turned around and left the room, "The ending this time will definitely be different!"
ββββββββββββββ
After seeing Young, Swain changed his mind.
Since even Yang has come to this place, it is obvious that Manfred does not intend to make any reservations this time, and wants to use all means. If Swain had left, and not even if he had any intention of stopping Manfred, he would have regretted missing out on this wonderful show.
Although the previous demon was shot down by Yang, the demon alone was more or less for Sven, and the magic power recovered in such a moment was enough for him to summon a bunch of stormy crows.
Sending out the demons to find Ramrem and them, Swain continued to drag his injured leg and slowly walked slowly through the wreckage of the Ministry of the Interior building, people like him were rarely afraid, and even death was not necessarily so terrible, because Sven knew deep down that there were things in this world that were much more terrible than death.
"Ernest,"
In such a place, walls and ceilings can collapse at any time, and the fire does not know when it will spread, and danger and upheaval fill every corner of these ruins. If a battle mage like Yang could easily navigate the ruins with his skills, then Sven didn't need to be so troublesome, and anyone who stood in his way would be destroyed by the brutal and corrosive magic.
"Manfred,"
Maybe it's because in the past few days that Manfred has been sealed, the loneliness has carried out a dark baptism on Sven's body and mind, or maybe it is because the body is completely dominated by magic that Sven's body and mind are eroded by magic, and now Sven is obviously more prone to tantrums. First defeated by Ernest, and then provoked by Yang, Sven's anger was hooked.
"Since you've chosen this place as the stage, I can't be afraid. β
The onslaught of the crows was like a real storm, knocking down the wall that stood in front of Sven, and Sven walked in a straight line by destroying the wall.
However, even Swain, once he is not calm, he will inevitably make a lot of mistakes.
Excessive destruction of the building's structure was tantamount to putting the last straw on the already overburdened staircase, and although this method of opening the way was convenient at first, the consequences were immediate.
When Sven bulldozed the walls again to make a way for himself, the finely distributed cracks in the staircase finally reached a critical point, unable to maintain their original form, and the entire floor collapsed, not only the walls, but also the floor, just as Sven had fallen before, and his foothold was gone.
This time Swain had plenty of time to react, and when he saw the ground fall, he immediately summoned the demons, and two huge crows spread their wide wingspans and grabbed Swain by the shoulders to lift him up. This time the collapse lowered the ground directly to the lowest level of the prison, and a long fault zone appeared in front of Sven, and looking down the fault zone, Sven could directly see the large hole that had penetrated the entire Ministry of the Interior.
Seeing the shape of the cavern and sensing the remnants of magic in the air nearby, Sven could roughly guess that this was the place where the explosion first started.
Flying down the crack, there was a clear fire overhead, and here was the hole that Count Hecate had made with the flame tornado.
Falling to the ground, Sven saw the traces of the magic circle remaining on the ground, as well as the staff left behind by Count Hecate. He picked up his cane and sensed the magic in it, and although it wasn't very familiar, Swain could still sense that it was similar to the one he had met that night in the Metternich family.
"Hecate?" Sven frowned, scrutinizing his cane. As something that Count Hecate always carries with him, this cane has a delicate pattern on it, even if the ruby on the top is broken by Count Hecate, the cane still looks very delicate.
Raising his head, Swain looked around, he had the impression that Count Hecate was not a man of all kinds, and it was obvious that something must have happened to Count Hecate who dropped his cane here. There was no shadow of Count Hecate in his sight, not even a corpse, but there were many traces of magic, the most conspicuous was the traces of the flames burning on the walls, and it could be seen that Count Hecate must have fought a fierce battle with someone here.
Most likely, it was Manfred, who had not seen Count Hecate's full force, but judging from the traces here, he must have specialized in fire magic, which was extremely lethal and had the characteristics of direct and long-range attacks, and it was unlikely that Ernest would be able to withstand the indiscriminate bombardment of this kind of magic. But if it was really Manfred, why did he do it? What was his purpose in betraying his lord? If I am not mistaken about his true identity, then ......
Swain touched the top of the cane where the ruby had been set, the gem had been shattered by Count Hecate, but there were still some remnant gem fragments on the cane.
This is supposed to be a magic crystal, but it was artificially broken, was it consumed by Count Hecate in order to exert the maximum magic power? No, no, there is still enough magic power in the fragment, it should not be Count Hecate who broke it in order to replenish the magic power, so what is the reason?
Once again, Swain lost the lead due to a lack of intelligence, but he didn't bother. The most important thing for Swain is not to unravel the truth of these things, but to find the two men waiting for him to take down in this crumbling building.
"I'll just borrow a little. Sven limped with his cane. Although he still felt that a battle between Manfred and Count Hecate was the most likely here, it was not that there were no other magicians in this building.
Swain thought of the man named Thresy Daxda, although Swain's magical perception was not strong, but he was able to completely avoid his perception and appear silently, which even Manfred could not do.
"It's getting more and more interesting. β
ββββββββββββββββ
Outside the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Sophia waited for a long time, but she didn't see her brother, which couldn't help but make her already restless heart even more anxious, and even she had some doubts that Ramrem was deliberately lying to her.
"Are you sure," Sophia's gaze was fixed on the Ministry of the Interior, for fear of missing her brother's appearance, "is the elder brother really coming out soon?"
Ramrem also frowned, fifteen minutes have passed since he saw Sven's envoy just now, although fifteen minutes is not enough to end the battle between the Imperial Capital Garrison and the Southern Legion of the Ministry of the Interior, but it should be enough for Sven to get out of the Ministry of the Interior, even if the current Ministry of the Interior has many obstacles, Ramrem does not think that this will stump Sven.
Is there something wrong?Ramrem had seen Viscount Ernest enter the Ministry of the Interior building before, which made it inconvenient for her to enter the Ministry of the Interior building to find Swain, not only because it would reveal her identity, but also because it would make her feel extremely embarrassed to meet the master she was currently working in.
"Sorry, excuse me. β
There was a knock on the door, and Sinjid's voice was heard outside. Ramrem's brow furrowed even tighter, and instead of opening the door immediately, she leaned against the door and asked, "What's the matter?"
The knock on the door also caught Sophia's attention, but she didn't look back, just pricked up her ears to listen to Ramrem's conversation with the man outside the door.
"His Excellency's envoy has flown over, and it has conveyed to us the meaning of His Excellency, as if His Excellency Earl is not going to retreat like this, but to make a big fuss. β
"What do you mean?" Ramrem kept his voice down, trying not to let Sophia hear the conversation.
"Your Excellency's order, let me go and join him. I don't think he saw you just now, so there was no mention of the arrangement for you in the order. β
What the hell does this guy want to do?Ramrem couldn't help but complain in her heart, but she resisted her disgust, and found Singid to lift Swain's seal, and now all she wanted was to end this boring rescue as soon as possible, and go back as soon as Ernest didn't notice, not wanting any more accidents.
"Is there a way to reach him?"
"At least I don't know how to summon, the crow that delivered the message has lost its magic after completing its mission, and if you want to find Your Excellency the Earl, you probably really have to run into the building that is about to completely collapse, right?"
"I see, you go and join him, I'll stay here for the time being and watch the movement. Ramrem bit his nails and sent Sinjid away. She was absolutely reluctant to enter that building, this level of fire was obviously the power of magic, how could she run into the battlefield of the magician by throwing herself into the net?
"Ramrem, you say, my brother wants us to go inside and find him?"
Ramrem was shocked, she had said so quietly just now, but Sophia still heard it.
"Then why don't you go?" Sophia looked back, her eyes hollow from waiting too long with a despair that even Ramrem couldn't help but fear, "Go, take me, I'm going to find my brother." β
