In the Netherlands, the old nest of the Philip family, Prince Philip stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking down at the large tulips outside the window, looking at the windmills by the river in the distance, gently caressing his chin with his slender fingers, and asked in the tone of absolute authority that controlled everything: "What do you think?" The faint sun of dusk shone on him, but the light seemed to have been absorbed by him, and the whole hall was covered only by darkness.

Including Prince Philo, whose nest was destroyed by the Holy See, a total of twelve vampire princes stood silently ten meters behind him, no one wanted to, or rather, no one dared to be the first to answer his question. These vampire leaders, who are all old and sophisticated, have all become the most obedient and good babies in front of Prince Philip.

After a long time, Dracula walked out of the corner of the room, stepped forward, squeezed out a smile, and said, "Brother, your proposal is beneficial to us, what other opinions can we have? However, as for those acting councillors, maybe we need to grasp them well? Well, in addition to Prince Philo's current strength being damaged and able to go to the council headquarters, we also need two powerful and quick-witted people to fill this position, don't we?"

Prince Philip slowly turned around, glanced at Dracula with a kind look that was difficult to see between human brothers, nodded and said, "Yes, it is difficult to choose. ......When we said this word, Philip's voice suddenly lowered by eight tones, and then returned to his normal voice and said, "We secretly rule most of the Bloodline world, and our purpose is to compete with humans for a sky of survival...... Ah, this is an opportunity to grow us tremendously. ”

Prince Philo stepped forward respectfully and bowed to Philip: "My lord, of course, if we can expand our power in the Dark Council, maybe one day, we can control the entire dark world, and at that time, with the strength we have secretly developed, we can rule this world...... Your decision has always been wise, and we have no opinion. ”

Philip shook his finger dissatisfiedly: "Dear Philo, my old friend, is it true that your family has been destroyed, and your courage has become smaller? Don't say anything flattering to me, our status is equal, friends, isn't it?"

The twelve princes nodded slowly, except for Philo, who seemed to be a middle-aged man (which was also the result of his constant sucking of baby blood), the other eleven princes were the same as Philip, old, pale, thin, and with deeply sunken eyes, and outsiders could not tell which of them was who.

A prince said in a hoarse and gloomy voice: "Prince Philip, of course...... The forces of our blood clan occupy less than one-third of the current composition of the Dark Council, and among the councilors, except for you, none of us occupy a high position in the Dark Council. What do you mean by proposing that each Member nominate three Acting Members?...... Of course, we don't doubt your wisdom, but let us explain. ”

Philip smirked: "Oh, dear friends, think about it, now, with me, there are thirteen councillors, that is to say, thirty-nine acting councillors. Well, things need to be done step by step, and the Speaker has already discovered my identity, so I have a reason to send a large number of good men into the Dark Council, isn't that what they would like to see?...... When we have half or more of the dark council, if I propose to make the thirty-nine acting councillors official, do we need to reshuffle the cards?"

All the top vampires present let out an exclamation of admiration, and they finally understood Philip's intentions.

Philip swayed triumphantly and slightly, smiled and said, "Oh, you see, humans are still useful occasionally, and this is a trick I learned from humans, really, very viable." As long as the power of the Dark Council grows, it will be absolutely impossible for the current thirteen councillors to coordinate all affairs, let alone do something in it?...... Ah, think about it, how many seats should we occupy among the thirty-nine new full members? Well, we can't be too greedy, half, how?"

The vampires let out their own characteristic laughter, Philo's face was slightly red, he had just slapped Philip on the back for a long time, only knowing that this plan could increase the power of the blood clan, but he couldn't figure out what the intention was, he was really a little embarrassed to go home.

Philip raised his hand, and the hall fell silent. Philip looked at Philo and said in a harmonious voice, "Of course, there is one thing that must be resolved before we can implement this plan. Prince Philo's family was destroyed, and he only ran out with a dozen top players, and his strength has been weakened a lot by the Holy See...... Everyone knows that in the dark world, without strength, no one will respect him. Philo is going to be in the position of Acting Councilor, so we need to give him the power to match that position again, right?"

The princes raised their hands in turn, and spoke: "Ten Grand Dukes, fifty Marquises......"

"Ah, our clan has been developing well lately, twelve archdukes, seventy marquises......" ......

The Philip family supported Filo with fifteen archdukes, eighty marquises, and a corresponding proportion of low-level vampires, and the power of the Philo family was immediately restored to a more powerful state than it had been in its heyday.

Philip said in harmony: "Philo, go and receive these hands, perform the ritual of our blood clan, they will no longer belong to their own family, they will have a new surname, Philo...... Oh, great and glorious Philo family, we Bloodline will not allow a family of friends to be destroyed like this. ”

Philo bowed deeply to all the leaders of the secret party gratefully, and whispered: "Yes, Lord Satan, our blood clan, is a perfect unity, may the soul of the first ancestor bless us." ”

All the vampires present made a strange gesture and said in unison, "May the souls of the First Ancestors bless us." ”

There was a sudden giggling laugh in the hall: "Nonsense, hum, a bunch of dead old men talking nonsense." ”

The top vampires who were full of seriousness just now immediately changed their faces, and Prince Philo excused himself to absorb human hands, and a puff of smoke disappeared. Beads of sweat oozed from Prince Philip's forehead, and the other eleven princes who had no excuse to slip away secretly took a few steps back.

Michelle sat on the throne of Prince Philip in the hall, and shook her calves and said, "Hmph, what do you mean that you must not allow a friend's family to be destroyed, isn't the Shackle family completely destroyed by the Holy See? Not a single hair slipped out...... A bunch of bragging dead old men. ”

The faces of the eleven princes suddenly turned iron blue, and they let out a helpless wry smile as they looked at Michelle. Philip smiled cautiously and said, "Ah, dear Michelle baby, you can't blame us for that...... It happened so suddenly, and we couldn't help it. The Shackle's family are not members of the secret party, and as you know, they claim to be royalty of the blood clan, and they are not willing to deal with us at any time. ”

Michelle stuck out her tongue, took out a bag of fries out of nowhere and chewed it, and said vaguely: "Then don't say it so solemnly, anyway, the Shackle family has been completely destroyed, hum, hum...... Ah, my father, I'm going to London, I'm going to London to play, this ritual of inheriting magic is so hateful, my strength has only been raised to the level of an earl, so how many ceremonies will it take for me to become a prince?"

Philip laughed, "Oh, baby, there can only be one prince in the family...... You're too young to inherit too much magic, and of course, if you want to go to London, I won't object to that, as long as you're happy. ”

Michelle cheered, threw her hand, threw a bag of chips all over the house, and she disappeared after a puff of smoke.

Philip's face immediately sank: "Dracula, it's because you're too spoiled Michelle." ”

Dracula retorted with a gloomy face, "My dear brother, who is Michelle riding as a horse every day?"

The other eleven princes simply pretended not to hear the two brothers' nests, and looked at the furnishings of the hall in a serious manner, although they had seen it countless times. Of course, they are still secretly glad in their hearts, fortunately their daughters are already adults, alas...... Among the great nobles of the blood clan, it is not easy to have a child......

Finally, Philip, who felt that he had lost his dignity, closed his mouth with a gloomy face, and Dracula closed his mouth with a dark face and rolled his eyes.

Philip looked at the eleven princes viciously and asked in a deep voice, "Okay, let's propose a suitable candidate." Except for me, you can't be exposed, we can't let everyone know the specific power of the secret party, right? Okay, put forward your candidates, you are strong, flexible, and you have to be ruthless...... Of course, if the three requirements cannot be met at the same time, the condition of strength can be abandoned. We've got to be tough killers, but we don't have great conspirators. ”

Dracula let out a scream. Philip covered his ears and muttered, "My dear brother, you are so deserved, we are discussing serious matters, why are you screaming so badly? Don't you know that my ears can't be shaken too much?"

Dracula let out a sinister smile: "My dear brother, I have a proposal, but I don't know if I should say it...... Really, really don't know if I should say it or not. ”

Prince Philip's eyes lit up: "Do you have a good candidate?" Tell me, aha, that's good news...... Hmmm, who's who? Tell me...... But don't say it's Michelle baby, if she becomes a proxy councilor, half of the Dark Council will kill herself. ”

Dracula's eyes grunted for a long time, and he cautiously asked, "What if my proposal is a human?"

Philip and the other twelve princes present glanced at each other, nodded lightly and said, "It's okay, as long as he can respect our interests, humans can also be our friends." Of course, he must be a champion of the loyal interests of our bloodline, and he must have a close relationship with us...... Humans, full of intrigue and intrigues, would be a good candidate. ”

One of the princes nodded and asked Dracula, "So, dear Mr. Dracula, who is it?"

Prince Philip looked at Dracula with a puzzled look and asked, "Yes, who is it?" if he is all right, then I would be more than happy to have a strategist in the Dark Council." ”

Dracula laughed strangely: "The boyfriend of the young daughter of the Shackel family, the man that the Council is now vigorously recruiting, a traitor to the Holy See, a former genius, a genius who became a Templar deacon at a young age, Jester who is listed as taboo within the Holy See......"

Philip shook his head in disappointment and sighed: "Oh, brother, it's too bad, he's a waste, maybe he has some so-so strength, but his mind ...... You've been with him for so long, do you think a man who has been immersed in marijuana and spirits all day long will have any brains? The council values him only because he used to be who he was, and wants to find out the weakness of the holy power from him. ”

Dracula didn't ask Philip how he learned about Jester's situation, according to Philip's temper, anyone who came into contact with Michelle would probably be investigated for three generations, right?

Dracula smiled proudly: "Oh, brother, the person I recommend is not him, but his boss, that Chinese Yi Chen." ”

Philip's eyes widened, and he said to himself, "Hmm, yes...... That Chinese, the Chinese with a mysterious identity, the ruthless Chinese, and the intrigues and tricks of countless people Chinese...... Well, he identifies with our bloodline, and he's even befriended you. He was able to take in Jester, he was full of antipathy to the Holy See, he had a powerful latent power in the world, and he could even influence some of the decisions of the Council, because the current greatest hope of the Council, Mr. Auf, was sponsored by him. ”

Dracula said in a deep voice, "I also forgot to tell you that brother, Yichen himself, has very great power...... That's a force we don't understand yet. In New York, I ordered a marquis to attack him, only to be defused by him...... I have reported to you that the destruction of New York was caused by some strange Chinese and the clash of the Holy See, and Yi Chen, who seems to have many strange connections with those Chinese...... They know each other, they are close, but they are not close. ”

Philip pondered for a long time and said slowly, "So, Yichen was driven out by those Chinese...... Yes, Chinese, they attach great importance to their family relationships, there is no need, a person will not go to the UK alone to develop. He was an expelled man...... Ah, I can even sketch out his experience, his early days in London were very unsatisfactory, and the information I got reflected this, so he was full of negative and ruined hopes. Yes, it must be so. ”

A prince frowned and asked, "Prince Philip, he has power, then he should call for wind and rain in the human world, and it is impossible to live a very unsatisfactory life." ”

Philip shook his head and whispered, "If we expel a member, we will also destroy his power, right?" This Chinese must have been sealed with his power, but then he regained his power...... Well, that's a good candidate. ”

Dracula bowed reservedly, thanking Philip for his compliment.

The princes looked at each other and elected a representative to ask, "Of course, Prince Philip, we respect your choice, but will the Chinese be willing to take this position? Or will he do what we want when he takes this position?"

Philip looked at Dracula, and Dracula laughed: "Benefit, give him benefit, he will do anything......" Dracula suddenly closed his mouth, he remembered with annoyance the pile of pistols and grenades that were now piled up in the Philip family's treasury. Prince Philip's face was also a little ugly, they had always dug money from others, and they were inexplicably blackmailed by Yi Chen, and anyone would feel unhappy.

Philip blushed and said, "Of course, interests, if there were no interests, we would not have planned this plan...... Hmph, interests, interests...... Damn the benefits...... So, how do we get this guy to hook? This vampire guy. ”

Philip suddenly used a human adjective, which made the eyes of the vampires present widen, and several princes muttered to themselves: "We are real vampires, but we, we are not greedy for money." ”

Dracula pondered for a long time, and slowly raised a finger: "We promise him, we will help Jester to take revenge on the Holy See...... Human feelings are immeasurable, I don't know what happened between Jester and Yi Chen, but I can tell that if it weren't for Yi Chen's existence, Jester would have committed suicide. ”

One of the princes laughed gloomily: "Oh, is their relationship so deep? Oh, it's disgusting." ”

Philip looked at it sharply, and the prince hurriedly took three steps back and lowered his head like a mouse seeing a cat.

Dracula said dissatisfiedly, "Did I say that they are men and women? Ladies and gentlemen, Jester regards Yichen as a brother, yes, only this relationship can make Jester maintain the belief that he is barely fooling around in the world." Of course, we don't know what happened...... And Yi Chen, I observed, although among all his subordinates, he seemed to treat all of them equally except for the woman, but he cared most about Jester, the two black men were his butlers, the German was his thug leader, and the Russian ruffian was his money-making tool. That's it. ”

Philip let out a 'squeeze' laugh, "So, if we promise to avenge Jester when we succeed, will Yichen promise us for this reason?"

Dracula racked his brain for a long time, and then replied uncertainly: "What Yi Chen is looking for seems to be power, power, and money...... If he knew that the magic pool could increase his power, would he go? maybe? Power, we can't help him, he has even won over the prime minister of a country, what else can we do? In addition to power, we also have money. ”

One of the princes licked his lips and whispered, "Then, first seduce him with money...... We have secretly controlled a lot of businesses, and we can involve him in the running of these businesses, and if he is really as shrewd as Mr. Dracula said, a shrewd manager will bring us infinite benefits...... Money, seduce him with the first step of money. ”

Another prince spoke: "Then, it is the power, and he will definitely be tempted to tell him how powerful the reactivated magic pool will bring to him after joining the Dark Council...... Of course, we can give him a large number of manpower to give him a sense of what it feels like to be in charge of the lives and deaths of thousands of people...... What kind of person is he now?"

Dracula replied quickly, "He's a gang leader now, and according to what I've learned lately, he's in charge of the entire northern part of Great Britain. ”

The prince sighed and said, "Then it is very good, he has already tried this majesty, and we have given him the power to dominate creatures more powerful than men, and he will be tempted." ”

Philip concluded: "In the end, if he is still hesitant, then say that once our blood clan gains the leadership position in the dark group, we will do our best to help him take revenge on the Holy See, this condition, Yi Chen may still consider this condition, but Jester, he will not give up no matter what, right? As long as Jester really has such a position in Yi Chen's heart, then we will succeed." ”

One prince asked, "But what if his performance does not satisfy us?"

Philip flicked his fingers easily, and a huge dark plucking spread out, and he sneered and said, "If he can't satisfy us, then let him evaporate...... Blame the Holy See afterwards, in short, don't involve us. ”

Seeing all the princes looking at him approvingly, Philip laughed: "Then, Dracula, my brother, do as you recommend...... Sua Yichen enters the dark council, ah...... Of course, he must first join our secret party and swear to protect our interests...... If he wants, I don't mind if I give him a warm first hug...... Go ahead, you take someone to accompany Michelle to London, and by the way, you will decide the matter. ”

Dracula's face immediately became gloomy: "I'm going to woo Yi Chen, dear brother, don't you have someone else to accompany Michelle baby?"

Prince Philip glared at Dracula: "Damn, do you want me to go shopping with Michelle in person?Ah, do you want me, the prince of the Philip family, the leader of the secret party, the old blood clan who leads most of the blood clan, to show his head in the sun? Do you want the whole Holy See to destroy London with me?...... Oh, don't be stupid, my dear brother, I admit that Michelle may be a little more terrifying than Yahweh at some point, but she is our little girl after all, and you should be patient......"

Dracula kept a bitter face and didn't speak.

Philip nagged: "Especially since you run around the world every year, and never care about the affairs of the family, well, you don't even have an heir, which should not be, so, in order to make up for your sin of not having too many heirs to our Philip family, you should resolutely act as Michelle's baby's bodyguard, you are her uncle, my dear brother." ”

The two brothers were still arguing here, and over there, a strange-looking prince raised his right hand.

Philip immediately stopped arguing with his brother, looked at the prince with a smile and asked, "Prince Gurlons, do you have any opinions?" Oh, I'm sorry, I'm busy with some housework, so I'm sorry to neglect everyone. ”

Prince Gurlons said sharply, "I have a third candidate in mind, dear Prince Philip, but I would like to ask your forgiveness not to pour out your anger on our Gurlons family. ”

Prince Philip and the other princes looked at each other, and then spoke in a deep voice: "Goulons, my friend, say, say, why are you angry, have you done something wrong?"

Gurlons whispered, "Yes, I have teamed up with humans to do some experiments...... We have cultivated some descendants......"

Philip's face turned cold, his fingers flicked slightly, and Gurlons was blown to the end of the hall by a black storm without the slightest resistance, slammed on it, and fell to the ground in embarrassment. The other ten princes' faces were pale, and their eyes flashed with murderous intent as they slowly pressed towards Gurungs.

Gurlons fell to the ground and exclaimed, "Listen to me, we are not married to humans, we are using human cloning technology, human cells are fused with our cells to create new species, and then let them obey us." ”

Dracula roared, "Charles...... That damn boy, the mongrel I sent out a hunt to kill, the bastard who doesn't admit his bloodline...... It's no wonder that he has the breath of our blood clan in his body, but he never recognizes his identity as a descendant of the blood clan, and his strength is so strange...... Ha, he's also full of malice towards us. ”

Seeing that the ten princes were getting closer and closer, Gurlons hurriedly shouted: "Yes, Charles, the supreme commander of the special department of the British Ministry of Defense, yes, it is him...... Ah, Lord Philip, I deceived everyone, but I have no other intentions, I just want to find a way to increase the strength of our bloodline, I have not violated the rules, our Gurlons family did not intermarry with humans. ”

With a wave of Philip's hand, Gurlons' body flew violently, Philip grabbed him by the collar, glared at him viciously, and said, "Ah, yes, you didn't break the rules, but why didn't you inform us?"

Gullons' sweat dripped down, looking at Philip in fear, he finally knew the huge gap between himself and Philip, Philip's powerful dark aura was so oppressive that he couldn't breathe, he muttered to himself: "No one will agree to my plan, I want to increase our strength as much as possible, I have no other intentions...... I don't want to betray the Bloodline, I don't want to betray the Secret Party, believe me. ”

Philip's eyes flashed a purple light, and a powerful spiritual power invaded Gurlons' brain like a tide, and Guron simply let go of all the energy defenses in his brain, allowing Philip to easily scan all his memories. After a while, Philip gently put down Gurungs, nodded to the other ten princes, and said, "Okay, friends, he is telling the truth, Prince Gurungs is still our close friend, and he has not betrayed us...... His intentions were good, but he chose a path that was not quite right...... Well, the Gurlons always like to play with these little tricks in technology, really. ”

The other ten princes relaxed their expressions, walked back slowly, looked at Gurlons and said, "You shouldn't be like this, but is this a mixture of our blood and humans?"

Philip also frowned, and said in distress: "Damn God, what have humans invented? This is really a big moral and ethical problem for our blood clan, maybe we should have a special meeting to deal with this matter...... However, at the very least, Gurlons did not foul...... He was clever enough to play a sideline. ”

Gurungs' face softened, and he sighed, "It is a great honor for me to have your understanding...... Prince Philip, we will never continue such experiments again. ”

Dracula said in a deep voice, "Your Excellency, Prince Gurlons is still loyal to our bloodline, and there is no need for him to tell this secret...... We should be ashamed because we doubt a loyal old friend. ”

Gurlons looked at Dracula gratefully and bowed slightly, while Dracula returned the favor with a deep salute, after all, there was a gap between their identities.

Philip waved his hand: "Don't clone such freaks anymore, wait until we study it, maybe this is a way to increase our strength quickly...... It's forbidden to give out information to the orcs, you know? I don't want a bunch of weird orc mongrels to break our vertebrae with axes...... How's that Gurungs, that Charr?"

Gurlons laughed: "Very clever, with great potential, well, he has a sense of disidentity with his identity, but that's because he has always been educated by humans...... I am confident that he will change his mind in the short term, and when he and his companions see the great glory of our blood, he will be transformed, and he will become our faithful people. ”

Philip nodded slowly: "So, when you need it, show him a little strength, understand?"

Gurlons nodded: "I won't let him underestimate our blood clan, I want to use the power of the blood clan to attract him ......"

Philip sighed: "Then, the matter is satisfactorily resolved, there are three candidates, Prince Philo has no problem, and the remaining two, let's fight for them...... Yi Chen may be easily persuaded by us, and that Charles ...... If it really doesn't work, let me give him a little hypnosis. ”

The princes bowed their heads a little in fear, Prince Philip's hypnosis, that is, the terrifying power that completely erases someone's memory, no one dares to show the slightest disrespect for such a power.

Of course, maybe there was, it was Dracula, who shook his head impatiently and muttered, "Oh God, damn brother, I praise you...... My Michelle Baby...... Oh, my God...... I'm going to London, but ......."

Scratching his mouth, Dracula staggered out of the hall.

Philip had a smile on his lips, as if he hadn't seen it......
