[You have obtained three drops of 'Ancestral Blood', are they immediately fused?] 】

[Note: After the fusion, your Vampire Count skin will be promoted to 'Vampire Marquis', and the previously acquired Bloodline talents will be enhanced, and a new talent will be automatically comprehended.] 】

"Yes."

Leaving the Duke's house of the blood clan, Mu You directly returned to the Rhine family with the blood, found a safe place at home, and began to upgrade his bloodline.

The whole process takes much shorter time than expected, just a few seconds.

Mu You himself didn't feel anything in reality, after all, it was only one of his skins that had been upgraded.

After a few short seconds, a prompt pops up in the game.

[Once the promotion is complete, your Vampire Skin will be upgraded to 'Vampire Marquis.'] 】

[Vampire Marquis: The second-rank title in the existing blood clan, when facing other blood clans with lower titles, your damage and defense ability will be greatly increased, and the native talents of the low-level blood clan will not be effective when facing you.

Built-in Talents:

Night King: You become weaker during the day and stronger at night, and the closer you get to the night, the stronger you become, and you can get up to 100% of all stats.

Giant Slayer: You deal seven times the damage to creatures over three meters tall and ten times the damage to creatures over ten meters tall.

Talent Absorption: Fusion with other ownerless skins to gain a talent for that skin, and a random curse. The curse level will be one level lower than the talent earned, and the curse will not be obtained when absorbing the lowest talent.

Butcher Wolf: ......

Survival of the Fittest: ......

Water-based Mastery: ......

Curses: Blood Thirst, Burning Sun, Daydreaming, Death Punishment. 】

[You have gained a new talent, 'God Speed.'] 】

After the ascension was completed, Mu You carefully looked back at the changes.

Sure enough, there is no improvement in level and attributes, only the quality of the skin itself is improved.

Of the six talents that existed before, only Giant Killer and Talent Absorption were boosted, and the rest remained unchanged.

The damage of the 'Giant Slayer' has been increased from five times to seven to ten times.

And the 'talent absorption', the effect itself has not changed, it is still a curse to eat a talent, but the curse obtained now will automatically weaken by a notch.

And this is already directly reflected in those curses he has previously obtained through this ability. Among his original curses, the two low-level curses of 'Greed' and 'Big Stomach King' disappeared directly, and the effects of daydreaming and death punishment were also greatly weakened.

Daydreaming now has the effect of staying sleepy during the day, but no longer forcing you into a deep sleep.

The death penalty has been reduced from the original 'ten times the punishment on death' to five times the punishment, which has been reduced by half.

Next up is the highlight of this promotion, a new talent: God Speed.

[God Speed: Increases all your speed by 360 times in 3 seconds, automatically fails when you are ready to attack, and automatically fails when you leave the initial range of 1000 meters. Cooldown: 54 seconds. 】

Of course, this talent was randomly created by Mu You with a pocket watch, but fortunately, it is not a hidden talent, it is not difficult to roll, and it was successfully brushed out after a few random times.

As for the effect...... Mu You immediately ran to the backpack space and tried it.

The moment the god was activated, Mu You suddenly felt that everything around him slowed down. Silver owls flying overhead, unicorns frolicking in the grass in the distance, and little mermaids slapping their tails on the surface of the lake...... Everything around him seemed to have entered an infinite number of times slow mode, and only he was still normal.

This scene makes Mu You feel very familiar, yes, Fool Card!

When the Fool Card is activated, it is a similar scene outside the Fool Enchantment, and the number 360 times is exactly the same as the multiple of the Fool Card.

The speed of the god is accelerated by 360 times, and it is not only the speed of movement, but also the speed of reaction speed, dynamic vision, etc., which leads to the final result, which is equivalent to his own time being accelerated by 360 times, the same as the Fool Card.

It's just that he can't move when the Fool Card is activated, and he must stand in the Fool's Enchantment, but now he can move freely, the only restrictions are that he can't attack, and he can't go too far in the speed of time, otherwise it will automatically fail.

Mu You summoned the clone and tried it, but found that the judgment of the attack was quite strict, as long as he raised his weapon towards the clone, and he didn't even condense the magic, when he only had the intention to attack, the acceleration effect would automatically end.

In other words, this ability can't be used to attack, and it's hard to use it to run, but other than that, you can do whatever you want, and in just three seconds, it's equivalent to 18 minutes for him!

Combined with the retrospective of the pocket watch, he can have a high degree of freedom during the retrospection, so that he has the ability to change more things.

Of course, it doesn't mean that this ability is completely equal to the top of the Fool Card, after all, the speed of God can only speed up itself, and other things are still in a state of slow motion, such as the potion materials thrown into the cauldron, which will only fall slowly and merge, and for example, the game text events in the mobile phone will not speed up the process because of your acceleration.

The Fool Card accelerates all the objects in the Fool's Enchantment, so he can cast spells and attacks normally in the Enchantment, as well as refine potions, etc., which cannot be done by God Speed.

In general, these two capabilities are not in conflict, they can be regarded as complementary to each other, and each has its own benefits.

After testing his ability, Mu You took the phone.

In the game, the speed of text popping up is still the same as before, a few seconds at a time, sometimes fast and sometimes slow, and occasionally popping up a longer text description, after all, the opposite world is not speeding up.

The difference is that now in the speed mode, Mu You has plenty of time to browse through all the information and type and reply.

You walk out of the retreat room. 】

[The family gathered around you, feeling the more powerful aura of the superior in you, and they all showed excited looks. 】

[Mai Yi and a few children looked at you adoringly, while Uncle Jonas and Aunt Elsa were full of satisfaction: "Ancestor bless, our Rhine family has finally returned to the Marquis family again after thousands of years!] ”】

……

The text was still slowly displayed, Mu You clicked on the personal panel, and at this moment, in the interaction of vampire skins, there was already an option to 'extract the blood of the heart'.

[Blood of the Heart: The core essence of the life of the blood clan, after each title promotion, you can extract up to three drops of the blood of the heart and feed it to other creatures, and the creature that takes your heart's blood will have a 'blood binding' connection with you, if it is your blood relative who takes the heart's blood, and the title is at least two orders lower than you, the other party will automatically be promoted to a knighthood.

Each time you extract the blood of the heart, it will permanently reduce your maximum health by 1000 points, and it will take a year of recovery before it can be extracted again, and you can instantly refresh the recovery period by taking the hearts of other bloodlines. 】

Bloodbinding: When a creature consumes the blood of a vampire's heart, it will develop a supernatural connection of loyalty and attachment to the vampire who shares the blood, thus becoming the vampire's blood servant.

Bloodbinding is one of the most powerful tools of the vampire clan, and can use the effect of bloodbinding to charm almost everyone, and the degree of obedience of blood servants is determined by the level of willpower, and creatures with strong willpower have a chance to break the effect of bloodbinding, but generally have little effect. For those with weak willpower, the bloodbinding will have a lasting and extremely blind worship effect. 】

After reading the two explanations, Mu You suddenly realized, it turned out that the blood servant was made like this!

Vampires can only extract three drops of heart blood each time they are promoted to the title, and they can be promoted up to five times, which means that a blood clan can only make a maximum of fifteen blood servants in a lifetime!

Of course, the blood of the general heart vein is reserved for the promotion of other blood relatives in the family, and in fact, there are not too many blood servants that each family can cultivate.

Having said that, the description doesn't mention that vampires can be immune to the effect of blood binding, that is to say, the blood of the heart veins provided to blood relatives for promotion, in fact, is still the process of creating blood servants, but the superior generally does not have the mentality of enslavement for his blood relatives, so he is not considered a servant.

But I also have to admit that it is precisely because of the existence of this blood-bound connection that the connection within each family of the blood clan is particularly close, and the head of the family almost has the absolute right to speak within the family.

[Now, you can divide a drop of blood from your heart and let your family advance.] Is it withdrawn immediately? 】

[If the withdrawal is successful, your maximum HP will be reduced by 1000 points.] You have obtained 'Blood' of the Heart'*1 of Liston. Recovery time remaining for the next drop of Heart's Blood: 8760 hours. 】

[Do you choose to give this drop of effort? 】

Ten options popped up below, which were the names of ten members of the Rhine family besides him.

The recovery period of the blood in the heart is very long, and this first drop, of course, is given priority to his sister, after all, even in the same family, there are relatives and estrangements, and Mai Yi is undoubtedly the closest person to him now.

[You give the blood of the heart vein you just extracted to Mai. Under the envious gaze of the other children, Mai Yi excitedly and carefully took the drop of blood. 】

[The blood droplets emitted a deadly aroma, successfully arousing the blood-hungry nature of the vampires present, Mai Yi licked his lips, and was about to take the blood drops, but suddenly remembered something, turned his head to look at his uncle Jonas on the side, his face was a little hesitant. 】

[Jonas saw her thoughts, waved his hand and smiled: "Don't worry about me, I have wolf venom in my body, and I haven't recovered yet, taking it at this time may affect the effect of heart and blood, of course, it's best for you." In addition, after Mai Yi is promoted later, don't be in a hurry to gather your efforts to others, first wait until you are completely adapted to the improvement of strength, and then gather your efforts to give full play to the best effect. ”】

[Mai Yi heard this, then nodded and swallowed the blood drops.] 】

[Mai Yi has ingested the blood of your heart, resulting in a layer of blood bondage, and the kinship between you and Mai Yi has become closer! 】

[Pure energy flowed through Mai's body, and in just a few seconds, she was successfully promoted from viscount to earl, upgrading her existing blood talent, and comprehending a new talent: atomization. 】

……

"Huh?"

Mu You was stunned, it wasn't that there was any accident with the promotion, but that his game text actually directly reported Mai's promotion process, and at the same time, in his panel interface, there was actually a Mai Yi's attribute interface!

[Name: Rheinmei.]

Level: Level 20 unevolved.

Identity: Vampire Count.

Unlocked Family Talents: Super Sension, Atomization.

……】

Although it is a very simple panel, at least it does show the panel, except for the contract demon, Mu You has never seen this situation.

Could it be that this is also the effect of blood binding?

Mu You thought about it, it seemed that in the judgment of the game, blood binding and contract belonged to the same thing.

However, if that's the case, wouldn't he be able to help Mai Yi brush up on his talent?

Mu You immediately thought of this, and hurriedly took out his pocket watch and pressed it.

[Time passes, Mai devours the blood of your heart......]

【…… Mai learns a new talent: seduction. 】

"Backtracking."

【…… Mai learns a new talent: Iron. 】

"Backtracking."

……

Finding that she could really switch talents by backtracking, Mu You simply decided to brush her up with the rarest 'Talent Absorption'. With the pocket watch, Mai Yi can also choose to devour the curse brought by the talent with his help in the future, so as to have the opportunity to cultivate her into another super talent monster.

However, it turned out that Mu You still underestimated the rarity of 'talent absorption'.

It took more than 1,900 years in a row for him to finally brush up on this ability for the first time.

You must know that there are only nine options in total, and it took nearly 2,000 brushes to come out, which shows how low the output rate of this ability is.

["Ah......" After the promotion, Mai Yi looked at himself, subconsciously exclaimed, and looked at the others with some surprise: "I, I seem to have comprehended the talent absorption, just like my brother!" ”】

[Jonas and Elsa are also quite unbelievable when they hear this, talent absorption is an extremely rare hidden talent, and your brothers and sisters have actually comprehended this talent one after another, how low is the probability? 】

[When I came back to my senses, the family also looked at each other and smiled, quite happy. Although talent absorption is considered a 'cursed talent', no one dares to deny its power. 】

"Not bad. In Mai Yi's expectant gaze, you praised her without hesitation, and then instructed: "But don't swallow the talent casually in the future, be sure to tell me before you devour it." ”】

In order to prevent her from messing around and getting any troublesome curses, Mu You specially advised.

"Yes, elder brother. Mai nodded hurriedly, looking at you with burning eyes, his eyes full of reverence, and a hint of ...... A feeding frenzy. 】

"Fanatical ......"

Mu You raised his eyebrows. Is this the effect of blood binding, this thing seems to work much faster than expected......

Shaking his head, Mu You looked back at the game.

Now that the promotion is over, it's time to deal with the problem of the inner ghost.

The issue of the inner ghost had been discussed with Brand before.

Brand apparently knew that there was an inner ghost in the clan, but he wasn't sure who it was.

However, after the clan meeting a few days ago, he also had a suspicion, that is, the Tai Di who introduced the bloody dawn at that time, of course, he has no evidence yet, and he can't do it, the blood clan is a race with a bloodline system, and it is taboo to do it to the clansmen casually.

However, Mu You doesn't have so many scruples, since it's not easy to make a move within the blood clan, he, an outsider, can just do it.

[You have come to the northwest outside of the Dark City, in an abandoned magic stone processing factory. 】

[You hid in the hallway on the second floor of the factory.] 】

[The inside of the factory is pitch black, except for bugs and some rats, there is no other biological activity, and the scene is quiet and the needle drop can be heard.] 】

[At one moment, you suddenly hear a slight sound of footsteps outside the door.] 】

[A moment later, a figure in a black robe cautiously pushed the door open. Walking into the empty factory, the figure looked around vigilantly, and found that he could not see other figures, so he called in a low voice: "Duke Brand, are you there?" ”】

[Through the perspective of night vision, you can clearly see the face under the other party's cloak, which is the Bruch Tai Flute that you have seen at the clan meeting before. ...... you choose]

[You suddenly appeared, jumped down from the second floor, and blocked the front door. 】

[Bruch Tay Di saw the figure appear, and subconsciously ran towards you, but as soon as he took a step, he reacted, hurriedly stopped, and looked at you in disbelief: "Liston? How could it be you?! What about the Duke? ”】

"The Duke is here, it's just me. And now you will call me a Marquis! You answer. 】

["You've been promoted to Marquis? How is this possible? Teddy looks at you incredulously, and quickly thinks of something: "Could it be that the Duke has already given you a drop of blood?" ”】

[As soon as he finished asking, Tydi quickly sensed the crisis: the Duke called him here, saying that he needed to discuss the matter of the Scarlet Dawn Alliance. He came in high spirits, but it turned out that it was you who were waiting here......]

["You've joined forces with Duke Brand! You want to kill me? Teddy looks at you through gritted teeth. 】

["Yes, the duke thinks that you are an inner ghost, and you have helped the werewolves to create poisonous blood to harm your own clan, which is a great crime, so let me deal with you. "Vampire claws pop out of your hands. 】

["Ridiculous! What poisonous blood, I don't know at all! I know I haven't done anything yet! Besides, what proof do you have that I am an inner ghost? Teddy said as he stepped back in a panic. 】

["There is no evidence, but in fact, I don't need evidence, I said that you are an inner ghost, you are, even if you are not, there is nothing to lose to me. You answer. 】

["You! "Your scoundrel's words made Tydi almost vomit blood. 】

[Seeing that he couldn't reason, Teddy resolutely fled backwards, trying to escape through the window on the other side of the factory. 】

[You activated the speed of the gods, appeared behind the opponent at lightning speed, and the moment Tai Di could not react, two claws pierced his chest. 】

[Tai Di was seriously injured by your blow and fell to the ground, spitting blood from his mouth, but he didn't dare to resist at all. In the face of the suppression of the title within the blood clan, he knew that there was no chance of winning a battle with a marquis, so he hurriedly turned around and looked at you, and warned with a fierce heart: "You, you can't kill me, cannibalism is strictly forbidden within the blood clan, even if it is a duke, only after the trial of the whole clan, can he have the right to execute his compatriots, if you kill me, you will be left with the mark of mutilating your compatriots, and you will be incompatible with the entire blood clan in the future!" ”】

["Thanks for the reminder, but who said I was going to kill you as a Bloodline? "In the face of the other party's threat, you suddenly grew in size, and in the blink of an eye, you transformed into a moon wolf. 】

"Remember, it's the werewolf who killed you...... Rest assured, as a Blood Clan hero who died in the line of duty, you will be remembered by your clansmen. ”】
