856. How many times have you said it, you ancients, don't carve messy things into your DNA!
Charlemagne Morva Giovanni, Grand Duke of the Vampire Blooddread Clan and the Ancients of the Greedy Descendants, was one of Lord Paim's good brothers during the Golden Age.
However, the archduke's presence among the vampire ancients is very thin.
On the one hand, it is because the recorded Grand Duke Charlemagne himself is a serious and uninteresting person, with few friends and confidants, and on the other hand, it is also because according to Lord Pa Ying, Charlemagne's position in the Eden District of the Golden Age is the Astral Explorer.
He and his people have to travel in the astral plane for a long time to explore all aspects, so they get together less with other brothers and sisters, which also leads to a somewhat indifferent relationship between the Blooddread Clan and other clans.
The clan is rich in outstanding hunters, and it is said that the reason why the Thorn Clan has been able to grow rapidly in the past two hundred years is because the Blooddread Clan has been executed on a punishment expedition, which directly caused the natural enemies of the assassins to disappear from the vampire ecosystem.
Although Pablo is very out of tune, the hunting instinct he has shown in several battles is enough to amaze Murphy, especially when paired with the outrageous "Spear of the Emperor" in his hand, this guy can easily seriously injure the gold person at the level of the silver rank.
They possess an amazing talent for hunters, and now that talent is combined with the pirate profession in a strange way, allowing the Blooddread Pirates to quickly occupy a high position in the Misty Sea ecosystem since their birth.
However, the ancient memories of the legendary serious and boring Blood-Feared Grand Duke Charlemagne were more powerful than all the memories Murphy had seen before,
It begins with a counter-assassination after a failed assassination attempt.
In the unfolding of this ancient memory, in a hidden area of the Eden District, the seven leaders of the vampires chatted in the background of their subordinates cleaning up the corpses and the scene after a brief and not fierce battle.
Murphy noticed that in Charlemagne's memory, the face of His Excellency Witte Fato Fisnoratu was also chaotic, and it seemed that Archduke Charlemagne, even though he had experienced amnesia, was still instinctively resisting everything related to the mad duke.
Just like Sallokdal's memories, Murphy reckons to be similar in the ancient memories of the other Ancients, who seem to be resistant to the information about the Mad Blood Grand Duke, perhaps related to some of the details of the Blood Seal.
"These goatmen are insane enough to assassinate a councillor in broad daylight in Eden."
The sassy and charming Lady Oksana in the ancient memories complained as she cleaned the blood from the battle blade in her hands:
"It seems that Pa Ying's checks and balances on the ambitious Widia members in parliament have become unbearable, and the fact that these guys are not followers of Vidia is enough for the Home Office to launch an inquiry.
Do you need me to preside over this myself? Pa Ying.
I can find a way to make it an ironclad case so that the invincible Congressman Widia can also experience the feeling of being in prison, and maybe that will teach the arrogant goatman scholar to respect us. ”
"Don't."
Sarlokdal put his hand on the waist of his hot-tempered wife, and whispered, wearing the necessary evil:
"This thing is strange inside and out, Vidia is not a reckless fool, if it was really in charge of this matter, it would never be so rough."
"That's right, it's clearly a frame-up."
Edward, who was enjoying the battle, leaned against the rooftop fence to the side, playing with a pack of cigarettes, and whispered:
"There are attempts to profit from the confrontation between vampires and goatmen, and I have heard some gossip from some of my artisan friends that it is said that the-for-tat between Pa Ying and Vidia in the council has given some watchers an opportunity.
Charlemagne, you've been undercover here for half a month, so you don't have any useful news? ”
"Nope."
Charlemagne, the protagonist of this memory, held his beloved shotgun, shook his head and said in a concise tone:
"It's all a little pawn who can't get on the table, and they can't dig up useful information, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs may be able to continue to investigate, but I don't think it's pointless."
"I'm curious, why do these low-level goatmen thugs contact you?"
Werther, whose face was chaotic, asked softly:
"You spend most of your time working in the Astral Plane, far from the political circles of Eden, so it stands to reason that they should come to me or Constance, and we also have a conflict of ideas with Pa Ying, as many people know.
We are more suitable to be the corners of the prying wall than the one. ”
"Let's be straight, Werther, we're all brothers and sisters, so we don't have to hide it."
A hooded vampire big sister next to Witt asked in a very magnetic voice:
"Charlemagne, did you really do something dangerous in private?"
In the face of this questioning, Charlemagne kept silent and maintained his true character as a handsome man.
His countenance was second only to the femininity of Lord Pa Ying among the vampire ancients, and he belonged to the hard-core silent person line, and his silence made the other ancients quite dissatisfied, but before the others could speak, Lord Pa Ying took the initiative to speak:
"Don't guess, I let Charlemagne break into them, not just the goatmen, Charlemagne has connections to all the shadowy forces in Eden. He took the initiative to take on such a duty to protect our fellow citizens in the sun.
As you all know, there are certain disturbing changes in Eden over the past two decades.
As the 'Greenhouse of Life' project gets closer to the point of execution, many forces are working in the shadows to try to grab more shares of it to ensure their interests in the new world, and in this case, vampires who hold key positions in various departments can easily become the target of public criticism.
Especially for those short-lived species, they have always been hostile to us because of our reproductive characteristics. ”
"Pa Ying! It's not that I'm talking about you, you always have a lot of plans, but could you please let us know in advance the next time you execute these plans? ”
Ms. Oksana scolded unhappily:
"I'm already tired from wiping your butts in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, at least let me be prepared, okay, forget about it today, let's go out to eat together, it's rare for everyone to get together."
"Well, I also have some thoughts for the 'Perfect Life' program."
Witte said softly to all the ancients:
"Let's find a place to talk, and when the lab application is settled, we can start working on making up for the vampire's racial deficiencies."
"I've always had doubts about your plans, Werther."
Sister Constance sighed and said:
"If even the Creator doesn't feel the need for vampires to fix their blood-eating habits, then we're taking a risk right now, but I can't convince you, I'm tired of drinking blood to sustain my mind.
My eight boyfriends left me because of this, and I'm fed up with being alone all the time. ”
"If you had accepted my courtship a hundred years ago."
Edward snorted, put his hands in his pockets, and said:
"Vampires are supposed to be with vampires, right? Constance, how happy do you think Salokdal and Oksana are? They're going to have a baby. ”
"Come on, Edward, I'd rather choose Pa Ying than you."
Sister Constance waved her hand and said:
"We don't have anything to talk about together, you're always obsessed with fitness and muscles, but I worship knowledge and truth, and we're not destined to be together. But if there is a next life, maybe we can give it a try.
Okay, don't be bitter, go have a drink. ”
After the other ancients had left with a smile and a smile, Lord Pa Ying, who had deliberately taken a slow step, waited for Charlemagne, who was belatedly at the entrance to the area.
After the two of them watched the surroundings as vigilantly as the underground party, Charlemagne spoke:
"Widia's minions tried to capture those strange djinns in the astral plane for their evil research, and their actions were thwarted by me and my subordinates, and we also seized some information.
Vidia is studying the secrets of the gods!
That goatman scholar is making a very dangerous attempt, Pa Ying, you are the administrator of the 'Old God Cage', you are in its way, you must prepare early.
Although the assassination of you was not instigated by Vidia, the guy must have known and acquiesced in it.
It wants to get rid of you. ”
"A lot of people want to get rid of me."
Councillor Pa Ying sighed, and he brushed his long hair and said to Charlemagne:
"It's been hard for you this time, you don't have to think about it so much, take advantage of this vacation to relax."
"One more thing."
Seeing that Paying was leaving, Charlemagne spoke again:
"During our expedition to the Astral Plane, we stumbled upon a position of the Sentinels, and I visited them but was not allowed to enter their territory.
Pa Ying, I've seen the Sentinel's subspace cruisers and those terrible armaments, which are not prepared to fight us, and I guess behind the peace in Eden, the Sentinels have been closely monitoring the movements of the subspace.
While we don't know it, they may have even been at war with the subspace powers.
The expulsion of subspace influences is their number one priority, and I have confirmed this, and it is a trait that we can exploit.
I mean, killing each other is not allowed in Eden, but Widia's actions are getting rampant, it's a threat, for everyone!
We can design an encounter.
You know what I mean?
A planting!
Let Widia have a connection with the subspace, and leave the rest to the sentinels, I don't think the Sentinel Legion will listen to Widia's defense.
No one will have blood on their hands, and the goat-man who has been ambitious and eager to steal the main power of creation will also suffer from it. ”
"Charlemagne! Your thoughts are dangerous! It's not on our home planet anymore, and your occasionally overly dangerous hunter mind needs to be retracted. ”
Pa Ying immediately stopped:
"If even the Creator is to be wary of the threat of subspace, then we, the survivors, cannot cross that line, let alone try to exploit it! I ask you to go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs immediately and have Oksana do a mind test for you.
I suspect that your roaming in the astral plane may have been tainted with a hint of subspace influence. ”
"I'll go, but Pa Ying, you know I'm right."
Charlemagne stroked his shotgun and said stubbornly:
"That threat is right in front of us, it doesn't exist if we close our eyes, the Eden District forbids the study of the secrets of the subspace in my opinion is very stupid, if that is our enemy, if we may have to meet them on the battlefield one day in the future, then closing our eyes and listening like this now is tantamount to binding our hands.
And you can't control our brothers and sisters!
Both Constance and Werther were studying the taboos in private, and the goatmen went even further in this regard, and I heard that on the Creation Engine side, some elven scholars had formed their own secret societies.
And halflings.
They at the head of the think tank have more access to those secrets than anyone else, and I don't believe those little people can resist their innate curiosity.
Pa Ying, you regard the rules left by the Creator as holy scriptures, which is why everyone trusts you, but you also have to prepare for the future.
Listen!
All I need is a permission, just give me a few resources.
My subordinates and I are all active in the Astral Plane, we are far away from the Eden Zone, no one will notice us, we will set up an observation and research station in the Astral Plane, which is closer to the subspace, and many experiments are easier to do, and even if something goes wrong, it will not immediately affect the physical world.
You can send your men to supervise us, and I promise we won't cross that line and we can't fight the enemy blindfolded! The Sentinel Corps will not necessarily be able to protect us, either.
Pa Ying, do you remember the scene of the destruction of Nasarok before our eyes?
We, the Blood Clan Elders, have all experienced the powerlessness of not being able to defend our homeland with our hands, and I'm just. I just don't want Eden and our new hometown to experience the same despair again. ”
In the face of Charlemagne's request, Lord Pa Ying hesitated for a long time, and then he asked:
"If I don't agree, you."
"I'll do it privately."
Charlemagne said calmly:
"I've made a deal with Salokdal that the Chief Navigator will assist me in transporting supplies to the Astral Plane, and Edward's side has been connected, and the Craftsmen will revise their ledgers to raise enough supplies for me.
Constance didn't give me an answer, but the Secret Blood researchers were already packing.
The hardest thing to deal with was Oksana's authority to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, but Sarokdal would have convinced her, and Oksana listened to him the most. ”
"You guys. . . You're alone! Damn it. ”
Pa Ying was.
But His Excellency was so far-sighted, and after trying to suppress the void of anger, he pondered for a few minutes, then threw a card with permission authentication to Charlemagne, and said in an accentuated tone:
"Only observation and research on the nature of energy are allowed, and no biological experiments are allowed! I'll take back my clearance if something goes wrong, I'm not kidding you, Charlemagne, this kind of thing is challenging my bottom line. ”
"Of course, you and I are both defenders of the race, and I know what I'm doing."
Charlemagne breathed a sigh of relief, and the ensuing scene dimmed.
Murphy, who was in the biology room, also rubbed his forehead and opened his eyes, and was greeted by Tracey's curious and concerned eyes, Murphy knew what Tracey wanted to hear, so he looked at Pablo and Claire's bio cabin, and whispered:
"I know the reason why the bloody apocalypse happened two hundred years ago, Grand Duke Charlemagne opened the rift at that time, not to pray for the power of the subspace, but to find the astral laboratory that he established during the Golden Age.
Perhaps there was some important information stored in it, but the operation was exploited by the subspace, or rather, the subspace used the research room as bait, and the chaotic hunter Charlemagne stepped into the trap and became the prey.
That place should still be somewhere in the astral plane, though.
We're going to find it and see what the Blooddread Clan has been working on back then. Hmm, new memories are coming back, wait a minute. ”
Murphy closed his eyes again.
He thought that this time it must be some activity of Charlemagne in the astral laboratory, but as he opened his eyes, he was greeted by a very indecent picture.
Charlemagne hides in a corner in a voyeuristic way, manipulating a drone, and the picture shows two entangled vampires. Well, I don't say who they are, you probably guessed it.
Good Charlemagne!
There's a voyeuristic setting hidden under the cold-faced handsome guy persona, right?
!
It was too late for Murphy to disconnect the resonance of this ancient memory.
Through the flickering of the image, he clearly saw some indescribable action of Mr. Sallokdal and Ms. Oksana hiding in the corner of the garden, it stands to reason that such third-party observation can show the psychological activity of the person concerned, but the problem is that ancient memories are unreasonable!
Feeling that he was about to fall into the predicament he once had, Murphy scolded:
"Don't you damn old ones get down to business? Damn, don't carve all this mess into your DNA!! Scald. Xia Ni. I really didn't mean to do it this time. Sauri. ”
At this time, far away on the other side of the frontier of the Great Wilderness, in the Far East, in the Far East, Port Joseph, Xia Ni was about to lock on to the target, and was preoccupied with the hunt, and then at a certain moment, she suddenly frowned, and had a premonition that something was wrong.
Before Xia Ni could prepare, a mental pull put her in that awkward situation.
She stared at a helpless Murphy in front of her in the midst of that damn memory, and then the two of them were swallowed up like a tidal wave by the strange and wonderful perception.
Ah, what a damn one!
