Chapter XXVIII. Grand Duke Dracula
In Xiao Yu's setting.
Vampire origins are inseparable from three people.
They are Lilith, Cain, and Dracula.
Lilith is the vampire creator, Cain is the first vampire, and Dracula is the progenitor of modern vampires.
Xiao Yu perfected the origins of mainstream Western religion and the reasons for the appearance of vampires, and then he had to really create characters.
Wave your hand gently.
Turn the pages of the Book of Creation.
Rows of text appear on blank pages.
Xiao Yu began to refine Dracula's character information.
[Character: Vlad TsepeΕ‘ (Grand Duke Dracula)!] γ
[Introduction: From 1431 to 1476, Grand Duke Vlad was originally a monarch who loved his family and loved the people like a son, but in order to protect his family, he had to accept the power of demons, but in the end he was ruthlessly betrayed and completely blackened into the ancestor of vampires, becoming synonymous with terror! γ
"Archduke of Piercing" Vlad III was considered a Dracula prototype in a previous life.
In fact, the original novel does not have such a statement.
It's just a brain supplement and artistic processing of later people.
However, it is not for nothing that people associate Grand Duke Vlad with Dracula, and the character and behavior of this historical figure do indeed fit the image of a murderous and aristocratic vampire.
There is no such thing as Dracula in this world.
Vlad III existed.
It's just that there is no Dracula's forcible binding.
He was an Eastern European aristocrat in the Middle Ages that not many people knew.
In order to create a more credible modern vampire ancestor, Xiao Yu decided to directly transform Archduke Vlad into Dracula, and in order to appear more like a big boss, the title was changed from earl to a more historical archduke.
The fabrication of the characters' experiences officially begins:
ββββ
[0 years old, you were born in the city of Sighisoara, and your father was Vlad II, who was known as the "Grand Duke of the Dragon". γ
[At the age of 10, you became the Count of Wallachia, you admired your wise and majestic father very much, and you also had a strong sense of honor and responsibility for your family and the land under your feet. γ
[At the age of 12, the Ottoman envoy humiliated your father in public, but your father put down his dignity, continued to curry favor and flattered the other party, and offered money and beauty in exchange for peace, which made you feel ashamed and disappointed in your father. γ
[At the age of 15, you and your brother Radu were sent to Constantinople as hostages. γ
[During the five years you were a hostage, you suffered countless humiliations and tortures, but for the peace of your family and the principality, you could only choose to endure, but the hatred for the Ottoman Empire was deeply rooted in your heart. γ
[At the age of 20, the Ottoman Sultan thought that by supporting the cowardly and incompetent you to become rulers, he would have better control over Wallachia, so he assassinated your father and brother. γ
[You became the Grand Duke of Wallachia, ostensibly submitting to the Ottoman Sultan, secretly accumulating strength with the assistance of your younger brother Dura, ready to reclaim your rights and country at any time. γ
[At the age of 25, you discovered the tomb of an ancient Roman prophet and learned that a blood-sucking demon older than any known history had been sealed in an unnamed mountain range in Transylvania. γ
[It is said that if you give your soul to him, you will gain great power. γ
So he secretly sent someone to investigate. γ
[At the age of 27, the men you sent out to find demons all disappeared into a cave, which made you jealous and decided to give up for the time being. γ
[At the age of 29, the Ottoman Sultan Mehmed II asked you to provide for a thousand children for the empire. γ
[You finally couldn't bear it anymore and broke out completely, relying on years of secret layout, eradicating dissidents with a thunderous offensive, using cruel means to deter all nobles, and regaining your own rights. γ
[At the age of 32, you defeated Mehmed II in the "Battle of Targovistei", executed 20,000 captives by piercing, shook the empire with brutal methods, and earned the reputation of the Grand Duke of Piercing. γ
Although you won the crucial battle, you were betrayed by the person you trust most. γ
[Your most trusted brother, Count Dula, was bribed by the Ottoman Sultan to unite the nobles you defeated to take advantage of the coup d'Γ©tat. Your children were all killed, and your wife jumped to her death after being tortured by humiliation. γ
[Desperate, you dragged your badly injured body into the cave where the demon was sealed. γ
Your hatred and willpower have been tested. γ
You drank the legendary blood of Cain. γ
[At the age of 42, you have awakened from your slumber, you have become a real vampire demon, and have gained unimaginable powers, but sunlight and silver will cause you harm. γ
[At the age of 43, you slay all the betrayers, use your mighty power, defeat the Imperial army, regain power, and liberate the people of the principality from the brutal exploitation of the Principality. γ
Although you are a vampire, you have never wanted to harm your people, but you can only forcibly suppress your thirst for blood, and endure the torture of curses day after day, and this pain is beyond any kind of torture in the world. γ
Although you have wanted to kill yourself countless times, in order to guard the land under your feet and protect the peaceful life of your people, you have decided to continue to bear everything silently and bear this curse alone. γ
[At the age of 45, your secret has still been exposed. γ
Your beloved second wife, all your cronies, and even your people, who you consider more important than your life, have all betrayed you. γ
[At noon that day, tens of thousands of people, taking advantage of the fiercest sunshine, set fire to your castle with torches. γ
Your people call you the devil and curse you with the most vicious curses! γ
[You are cornered, you can only let out an unwilling and angry roar in the sea of fire! γ
[You will never forget those ugly and crazy faces! γ
[You feel that everything you are guarding is ridiculous! γ
[You feel that your life is meaningless! γ
[You've lost everything!] γ
γβ¦β¦γ
Xiao Yu wrote about the life of the vampire ancestor in the Book of Creation.
Luck points began to drop.
That's about two hundred points less.
Grand Duke Dracula's initial strength was not strong, this was because he lived in an environment without aura, and the blood he sucked was very limited, and because he loved the people like a son, he did not suck much blood, and he was always in a relatively weak state.
On strength.
On the performance of the record.
It is far inferior to Ran Yu, who is one person against 100,000.
But why does it take a little more luck to create Grand Duke Dracula?
This is because Ran Yu was created out of thin air and quickly drowned in history.
Grand Duke Dracula, on the other hand, is a direct transformation of a real historical figure from the 15th century, and needs to invest more luck in repairing the details in order not to interfere with the existing world line.
However.
It's not enough to create.
Grand Duke Dracula is positioned as the progenitor of modern vampires.
Xiao Yu also wanted to resurrect him in this era, so he continued to write in the Book of Creation.
[Postscript 1: Vlad III was burned alive in the castle by his subjects, but his body was not burned to ashes, but turned into a charred corpse buried deep under the rubble. γ
[Postscript 2: Vlad III's nephew was supported by the Ottoman Empire as the new ruler, and in order to maintain the family's image, he destroyed the records of vampires and tampered with the cause of Vlad III's death. γ
[Postscript 3: Years later, the church built a church on top of the ruins of the castle, and people gradually forgot about the existence of Vlad, a vampire. γ
[Postscript 4: In the year 654 of the Ming Calendar (2022), Vlad III was affected by the revival of the aura and woke up from the ground of the church with hatred. γ
He decided to be a real devil. γ
[Since then, he has changed his name to Dracula!] γ
Another hundred and fifty luck was consumed.
Eastern Europe.
Romanian.
Transylvania region.
Under an old medieval church.
A charred and terrifying corpse suddenly opened its eyes.
His eyes were bloodshot.
Full of hatred and madness!
β¦β¦β¦β¦
The vampire ancestor has been successfully launched!
It's up to him to see how far he can go.
Xiao Yu retracted his gaze and turned his gaze back to China.
Calculate the time.
It's time for Hang Qingmeng to get out of the customs.
This lucky person is in the layout, and what he has obtained is the inheritance of the Great Emperor, which is at the same level as Yawei in the Dawn Era, so it will be a weighty chess piece in the future, and it is worth paying attention to.
