The distant time, probably before 19,000 B.C., when Atlantis had not yet sunk to the bottom of the sea.

On the continent of Atlantis, there is a great wizard of humanity named "Varna".

He was so powerful that he even wanted to plot to seize Agamotto's position in the Trinity of the Vishan Emperor.

Later, a violent conflict broke out between the ancient gods who were still on the earth at that time, involving the god of the underworld, Sithorne, the mother of the earth, the goddess of light, Ohit, and the snake god Seth.

Agamotto summoned Varna and other human wizards to try to find a solution to the conflict between the Old Gods, but the human wizards failed to reach an agreement, and the matter came to naught.

500 years have passed.

Varna became a member of the Dark Guardians and, together with a group of wizards, discovered the "Book of Darkness" left behind by the god Sithorne.

Later, during the battle with the Atlantean king Kuhl, the wizards were hunted down to the point of being killed and wounded, and Varna was mortally wounded.

In order to fight Kuhl, Varna and his followers opened the Dark Tome and tried to use its spells to turn several of them into supernatural creatures, hoping to fight or even kill Kuhl.

As he lay dying, Varna volunteered to be the first to participate in the ceremony, and as he took his last breath, the other wizards surrounded his corpse and chanted the incantations recorded in the Book of Darkness.

Three days later, Varna was resurrected and became the first vampire on Earth. He devours other vampires and feeds on the blood of wizards.

In 18,000 BC, Atlantis was silent, and Varna hid in stone and went into suspended animation.

In 10,000 BC, Varna led the undead into battle.

In 2000 BC, Varna appeared in ancient Sumer.

In 1 AD, Varna attempted to resurrect Atlantis from the bottom of the sea, but apparently failed.

In 1000 AD, Varna led vampires in an attack on the Viking camp and caught the attention of Saul Odinson, who opened the Gate of Light and forced Varna to flee.

In 1459 AD, Varna, tired of his long life, chose Dracula as his successor, and he passed on most of his supernatural powers to Dracula by forcing him to drink his blood.

Eventually, Varna exposes himself to direct sunlight and completes his suicide.

Varna used to be a name.

Now, it's a surname.

"He's my father."

On a park bench, Red and Ryan sat side by side, his voice steady, about the past.

"I can't remember what year I was born, but your mother and I are indeed his children, and we are twins."

Ryan frowned slightly: "Raw? ”

"Or else?" Red was stunned.

Ryan smiled and shook his head: "I thought it was after being bitten." ”

"Haha, there are too many people who have been bitten by him, but usually he will kill the other party directly, and a few will become his vampire slaves, and in the end he will not escape the end of destruction." "Our mother was an ordinary person, and he wanted to turn her into a vampire, but your mother and I have been protecting her, and now that I think about it, he must have been a little hesitant, otherwise my sister and I wouldn't have been able to stop him." ”

Hearing this, Ryan chuckled softly.

"I've lived a long time, but I've thought more?"

"Maybe. Luckily, she survived peacefully until her death. Then my sister and I have been wandering around the world, and that guy Dracula has been looking for us for some reason, so we had a really hard time. ”

Ryan thought for a moment and asked, "You were born vampires?" ”

"Yes, but unlike other vampires, we're not afraid of the sun."

"I see."

"Well, your mother loves to bask in the sun, she loves to grow flowers, she likes to keep cats, she loves all things furry, and she even begged me to let her keep a werewolf."

“……”

The image is indeed plump, but it seems a little strange?

"It took me hundreds of years before she really accepted eating blood. Until then, I'll have to find a way to secretly add some human blood to her food, or she'll starve to death. ”

Ryan nodded: "So, what about my father?" ”

"He ......"

Red frowned, thinking for a long time.

"To be honest, I really thought he was a normal guy at first. You look a lot like him, but your temperament is very different. ”

"How?"

"He seems to be a scholar through and through, both in his work and in life, and even when he is angry, he does not see the tyranny that any dark creature is accustomed to." Red glanced at Ryan, "But it's different, your temperament, especially your eyes, are naturally aggressive. Especially now, you're like a hungry lion on the steppe, ready to attack whatever prey you can eat. ”

Ryan smiled, "Probably because of the name." ”

"This is the name your mother took. She loves your eyes because they are exactly like your father. ”

"So, he didn't show anything else?"

"Of course there is, he's just like you." Wren looked at Ryan's face, "But I think you're supposed to be stronger than a vampire, so you've never had a vampire side to you." ”

Ryan nodded: "Indeed, some people say that I have a vampire aura on me, but it is suppressed. ”

"That's a good thing, isn't it?"

"But I want to release it."

Red suddenly frowned: "Why?"

"Because I don't want to have something in my body that I can't control." After a pause, Ryan added, "How much do you know about my father, about his identity or background?" ”

Red shook his head: "I don't know, he doesn't say, I don't think anyone will know." Anyway, he just looks like a vampire and doesn't actually have anything to do with us. ”

"His father?"

"That's fake, I've looked up his origins, and in the end it turned out that none of them are true."

"Did he leave anything behind?"

"You. There is and only you. ”

"Hehe, that's barely an answer. So, are they really dead? ”

Layton fell silent.

Ryan didn't rush.

After a long time, he shook his head and said, "To be honest, I don't know. But I don't, I think. You don't have to ask me where they went, if I knew, I wouldn't have been waiting here all the time. ”

Ryan nodded, "One last question." ”

"You say."

"Are all the people in the town dead?"

Hearing this, Red turned his body to adjust his face, and stretched out his hand to point: "Do you know the Battle of Alamo?" ”

"Heard big from a young age. So they were soldiers who died in that battle? ”

"No, they're just civilians, ordinary people who have no way to escape after being accidentally caught in that battle. Your father took them in first, and then after I entered S.H.I.E.L.D., he handed them all over to me. ”

"What are they?"

"Soul, your father said."

"So, they're still dead."

"No, I think, they're all alive." Wren stood up and stretched, then looked into Ryan's eyes and said, "You should have picked it a long time ago, since I was a child, my favorite is also your eyes." ”
