CHAPTER XV
Blatter didn't say a word, rolled up his sleeves to reveal the coat of arms representing the Blood King. Seeing this crest, all the members of the Demon Banquet present knelt down respectfully, expressing their deepest awe for the Blood King.
Camarilla's group also looked suspicious, looking at Blatter's coat of arms in confusion and whispering, obviously not knowing what to do.
Parid's face was full of shock, and he looked at the coat of arms on Blatter's arm in disbelief: "This is impossible, why does the Blood King really appear, isn't it just a legend..."
"Admit it, Parid, you've been a complete failure." Zhang Lie said slowly.
Speaking, Zhang Lie turned to Kamarilla and the others: "Blatter is the Allah of your blood clan, will you still be obsessed with it at this time?" Parid, for the sake of his own ambitions, brought Camarilla to such a dangerous situation, maybe one day you will become his next victim, do you still have to obey his orders? ”
The legend of the Blood Lord has an unparalleled influence within the Blood Clan, and although it has not appeared for thousands of years, it has been passed down from generation to generation and has taken root in the hearts of all Blood Clan members, especially at such a special moment, and its influence on them has multiplied exponentially.
Although Blatter only has one coat of arms as a "proof", Pared has always looked at him differently, Blatter's own special physique, the respect of the people at the Demon Banquet at the moment, and Zhang Lie's extremely incendiary agitation, all of which made Camarilla and the others have to believe the facts.
First, the two Camarilla elders knelt down to pay their deepest respect to Blat, and with their guidance, all the Camarilla members in the conference room soon fell to their knees.
Pared went mad, his usual mild-mannered face distorted, and he cried out almost in desperation, "You traitors, I am the chief judge of Camarilla, and you all have to obey my orders." Call Operation Bloodfiend now, kill everyone here, and retrieve the parts of Pandora's Box! ”
No one paid any attention to him, and Parid was the only one left in the conference room screaming frantically, which made his ugliness even worse. At this moment, a vampire rushed in and said, "Judge, the people of the Demon Banquet have blocked the blood demon, and we can't..."
Before he finished speaking, he suddenly saw the gaffe Pared and the person who fell to his knees, and couldn't help but stand on the spot.
Zhang Lie knew that it was the most critical moment, and quietly walked up, and he whispered while staggering past Parid: "Did you hear that?" If you don't want the Bloodline to fall, kill yourself. Blatter will unite the entire Bloodline and fulfill your last wish, isn't that why you created him and Jude in the first place. ”
His eyes widened suddenly, and Pared looked at Zhang Lie who was close at hand in disbelief. Could it be that things have developed to this point, all of which he arranged in order to make Blatter the master of the entire blood clan?
It was only at this moment that Pared understood what a terrible strategy the monster in front of him had. Forbearance, retreat, quietly sharpen his claws in the dark, and when the best time comes, what he will give will be the most fatal blow. Like now, Pared has been cornered and has no chance to fight back.
The sound of the battle between the members of the Demon Feast and the Blood Demon outside faintly came in, and it was obvious that the fight had reached the most intense moment, and if the fight continued, it would eventually be a defeat for both sides, and the entire Blood Clan would no longer have any available soldiers at that time.
With a long sigh, Pared knew he had no choice but to be the sinner of the entire Bloodline. Having made up his mind, he calmed down instead. Like a loving father watching a child grow up, Pared looked at Blatter with affection: "Everything I do is for the sake of the Bloodline, so I will never regret it." But I failed, and I'll leave it to you, Blatter..."
As he spoke, the two fingers of his right hand were inserted into the muscles on the side of his neck, and the carotid artery was torn brutally, and a large canopy of blood splashed out like a fountain. Blatter exclaimed, and grabbed Pared.
Smiling slightly, Pared trembled and reached out to stroke Blat's cheek, leaving five bright red blood marks on his white cheek, which then turned into a burst of ashes in Blatter's hands.
Finally solved Parid, and Zhang Lie breathed a sigh of relief. He came to the grieving Blatter and squatted down: "Blat, you are already the master of the entire blood clan, let the people outside stop." ”
Looking up at Zhang Lie in confusion, Blatter didn't seem to hear his words at all. Zhang Lie pressed his shoulder and shook it vigorously, and at the same time said in a deep voice: "Wake up, Blatter, do what you have to do!" If you don't take responsibility again, how can you be worthy of the dead Jude and Parid? ”
Suddenly awakened, Blatter stood up with him, and looked at the Demon Banquet and Camarilla who were looking at him expectantly, he took a deep breath and said calmly, "From today on, I will be the Lord of the Blood Clan. ”
"Yes, my king." Everyone bowed their heads deeply.
Soon both sides sent their own men out to prevent the battle from continuing, and after a while, the fighting gradually subsided, showing that the people outside also recognized Blatter's status.
Whether convinced or not, everyone must obey him at this time, otherwise the blood clan that continues to divide will definitely not survive, and Blatter is like a firm nail, connecting the Demon Feast and Camarilla, which have been divided for thousands of years.
Zhang Lie watched all this that he had single-handedly promoted, and he was also emotional. However, he knew that the current union was only a product of the current crisis, and the long-standing feud between the Demon Feast and Camarilla would never disappear because of Blatter, even if he was the Blood King. Blatter will have to face a thousand times more trouble in the future than he does now.
But now, who cares about him? Zhang Lie has achieved his goal, and now he can easily complete his plan by forcing the elders to submit and obtaining all the Pandora's Box parts.
During the whole process, Si You was like someone who didn't belong here at all, quietly watching Zhang Lie skillfully and skillfully manipulating the situation, and the look in his eyes was both admiration and vigilance.
Zhang Lie didn't notice Si You's strange appearance, he was about to speak, when suddenly the entire conference room shook violently, and the enchantment of the top lighting instantly collapsed, and the field immediately fell into boundless darkness.
Although he has always taken the situation into his own hands, Zhang Lie can't calculate everything after all, and the sudden situation caught everyone off guard, and the entire conference room was in chaos for a while.
"Calm down!" With a loud shout, a fireball lit up, and the field was bright again.
After all, they were all elites within the blood clan, and everyone quickly calmed down, but when Zhang Lie looked at the side of the elder group, he was shocked to see that the other party had all disappeared in a few seconds of chaos.
He couldn't help but secretly hate himself for being too careless, and he successfully forced Parrid to die but relaxed his attention to the elders, who had been very low-key since just now, and it turned out that they were waiting for this moment.
Although Blatter has succeeded in uniting the Bloodlines, they are still unable to stand up to the Alliance with the strength of the Clan, as they still have thousands of remnants of the Corpse Warfare Force and Special Operations Crew. Moreover, the alliance is still nominally supported by all clans, and the actions of the blood clan and Zhang Lie now are tantamount to betrayal. Therefore, Pared can only choose to come when the guard of the elder group is empty, and if he can't solve these elders at once, it will cause endless trouble.
However, despite the regrets, Zhang Lie is very satisfied with being able to do this, and Blatter has successfully become the king of the blood clan, which will be a great help to him. As for the parts of Pandora's Box that fell into the hands of the Elders, it was not too late to slowly try to regain them later.
"The old guys have escaped, let's get out of here." Zhang Lie said to Blatter.
Blatter also knew that it was not appropriate to stay here for long, so he nodded and led the group outside. Back on the surface, it was empty, and all members of the Alliance had fled.
Looking at the manor that was as quiet as a ghost domain, Zhang Lie sighed with emotion, at the beginning, the elder group tried its best to run this place, and all the protective measures were to prevent the attack of humans, but how did they know that they would fall in the hands of their own people?
After today's incident, they and the alliance have completely turned their faces, and they will face the full revenge of the elder group in the future. However, Zhang Lie didn't take this matter very seriously, he was deeply confident that the final victory would be himself.
"You asked me to come here, did you already know this was going to happen?" Blatter interrupted his musings.
"Yes." Zhang Lie replied without hesitation.
A hint of anger flashed in Blatter's blue eyes: "Why do you want to do this? ”
Zhang Lie looked at him without giving in: "For you, but also for me." ”
As he spoke, he said, "You should know very well what would happen to Pared if you let him get all the parts, and you would be the only option to replace him. However, with your character, I'm afraid you'll never do that, so I'll have to help you. ”
"Then should I thank you for arranging all this for me?" Blatter was sarcastic.
Zhang Lie looked directly into Blatter's eyes: "One of the most important purposes of my doing this is to borrow your power after unifying the blood clan, I will not deny this." But what does this mean for you, for the entire Bloodline? Have you ever thought about what would become of the Bloodline if you let Parrid succeed today? No one can guarantee it. And if you continue to be so passive, the Bloodline will not have a future! ”
In the end, Zhang Lie said word by word: "Remember, Blatter, you are the blood king who is destined to rule the entire blood clan!" Take responsibility, now you have no room to escape. ”
This time, Blatter did not speak, but fell into silent contemplation. After a while, he stretched out his hand as if he was very tired and wiped his face heavily, and then sighed gloomily: "You're right, I must take on the responsibility of the entire blood clan." So what about you, what are your plans? ”
Zhang Lie did not answer directly, but asked rhetorically: "Will you support me?" ”
After a moment of silence, Blatter said, "It depends on what you do." ”
Zhang Lie snorted: "There is a very right saying in Parid, the alliance has reached the time of metabolism, and the incompetent elder group will only lead us to destruction. ”
Blatter was taken aback: "You want to replace the Elders?" ”
Zhang Lie said as a matter of course: "What's not to do? In the current situation, only I can bring the inhumans out of the predicament. And even if it's not me, sooner or later they'll be replaced. ”
This is the first time that Zhang Lie has talked about his ambitions to outsiders.
After looking at him in amazement for a while, Blatter sighed, "You do have the qualifications, so do you also want to use Pandora's Box to destroy humanity?" ”
Zhang Lie shook his head: "I'm not so crazy. Without the non-humans, humans can live on this planet, and without humans, the non-humans will surely perish. Sounds sad, doesn't it? But that's just the way it is. Did you know that humanity has enough nuclear bombs to destroy this planet thousands of times, so that no one dares to use it lightly, and peace is born? I need Pandora's box, and I want its deterrent power, and I want it to return humanity and non-humanity to their former state of peace. ”
After listening to Zhang Lie's words silently, he sighed softly, and Blatter stretched out his hand to him: "From today onwards, you will have the full support of the Blood Clan." ”
