1633 The Price of Longevity
Near the North American Rocky Mountains, there is a group of ancient castles, this castle is owned by the Nophia family, this family is the most powerful family in the north of the United States, controlling several congressional positions, and has many billions of assets of the family business, including a powerful military enterprise.
The Nophile family, which is also one of several giant families in the country, has a strong influence on the economy, politics and military of the country.
Many people only know that the Nophile family is one of the oldest families in the country, which can be traced back to the beginning of the establishment of the country, but many people don't know another identity of the Nophile family: they are also one of the ancient vampire families.
Vampires have always been ostracized and hunted down by the Church of Light, so each vampire family must do everything possible to preserve their strength and identity, which is why many vampire families have moved to North America, because the vast forests and lands of North America are more suitable for them to thrive, and these places are beyond the reach of the Church of Light.
After centuries of reproduction, the Nophil family is now thriving, not only with a large army of vampires, but also with countless human lackeys, whether politicians or businessmen or soldiers, all of whom indirectly serve the Nophil family and also take on the responsibility of protecting the Nophil family.
At this moment, a family meeting is being held in the castle, and the content of the meeting is about the 'disappearance' of the Kurdish Count and the Marquis Carol, and the family meeting is discussing how to take revenge, so that the cultivators of Huaxia can see the true strength of the blood clan.
"Despicable Huaxia people, low-grade Huaxia warriors, they must pay for this!" At the meeting, a marquis shouted, "I haven't tasted the blood of a Huaxia virgin for a long time, this time I want to drink enough!"
"Marquis Danze's words are right, the blood clan will take revenge if they have revenge!" the others echoed, "In the past, there were still powerful cultivators in Huaxia, and we were still a little afraid at that time. But now, they are just some inferior warriors, and we don't even need to send too many people to completely kill them!"
"That's right, these damn Chinese pigs! they must know what reverence is!" shouted the others.
"Also, we need to take that damn wormhole, and if we get it, we can get great power from the hellish world!" said someone else, "This time, we can't afford to fail!"
"But that damn wormhole is in the waters of China. "Doubts were raised.
"Then let the damned Huaxia people get out of that sea area! Kill them all!" someone sneered, "More than a hundred years ago, didn't the Huaxia people lose all their territorial waters, and they still need to keep ceding land and paying compensation to save their lives." Now, in our eyes, they are not much stronger than they were a hundred years ago! As long as we show great strength, those despicable magnates of their country will grovel to us, because they have always been like this!"
"So be it - send our elite for revenge! At the same time, let the military cooperate and put pressure on them to pay enough price!"
The taciturn Grand Duke Gru spoke, and added, "The three kings of the family are about to awaken, and I hope you can give them a great gift before they wake up." Take that damn wormhole in your hands!"
Peng!~ As soon as Grand Duke Gru's words were finished, someone broke into the family chamber.
This is a very uncivilized move, and Grand Duke Gru is ready to punish this intruder who does not understand the rules: "You lowly servant, why did you break into here!"
"Grand Duke, I know that my behavior is very rude, but there is news that you must let the Grand Duke know. The man explained.
"Say, if this news is worthless, you'll have to die here!" said Grand Duke Gru, who looked furious.
"Grand Duke, this is important information that has just arrived from Europe!" The servant placed a volume of materials in front of Grand Duke Gru.
At the same time, there is also a video text jiàn, from a famous black market in Europe.
In the video, someone is calling for a global hunt for vampires. This kind of slogan, no one has mentioned it for many years, when the Church of Light was victorious, when it controlled most of Europe, Asia and Africa, they once put forward a similar slogan, demanding that all the dark creatures be cleaned up around the world, at that time, the Church of Light could be said to be powerful, believers everywhere, and even the armies of many countries were loyal to them, in addition, they also had the Inquisition and powerful paladins that made countless people hear, but even when the Church of Light was in its heyday, the blood clan was still not hunted down, but later there were more and more of them。
The hunting of vampires around the world seemed to Duke Gru to be a joke, and he even thought that the person who uttered the slogan was simply dying. However, when Duke Gru took a closer look at the information, his face became very ugly.
At this time, Duke Gru no longer felt that the person who put forward this slogan was ridiculous, because the information mentioned a key thing: there was a kind of elixir called "elixir of longevity", and the most prominent feature of this elixir was that it could increase the life span of the user by a thousand years! However, one of the key ingredients for refining this elixir was the essence blood of vampires, and the purer the bloodline, the better.
Although Duke Gru is not a human, as a vampire who has lived for a long time, he has seen too many humans, and what impresses him the most is that human desires can never be filled, and in order to realize desires, human beings may become very terrifying. Even, in order to satisfy their desires, it is entirely possible for human beings to become gods who block and kill gods, and Buddhas who block and kill Buddhas. Not to mention adding a thousand years of life, even if it is an increase of ten or even three or five years of life, many people can pay a great price for it, and even do not hesitate to make a deal with the devil.
In the past, the believers and followers of the Church of Light hunted dark creatures for their own benefit, but now it is different, killing three vampire barons with the lowest noble blood and taking their essence blood can get an elixir, killing a vampire viscount can also get an elixir, an earl's essence blood is worth five elixirs, and a marquis is worth twenty ......
Almost every level of vampire nobility has been priced, and the high-ranking and invincible blood clan has now become the prey of hunters.
Human greed can destroy a qiē, can also destroy a qiē, there are too many people in this world who desire to live a long life or even immortality, whether it is a rich man or a powerful person, whether it is a warrior or an immortal cultivator, or other supernatural beings, they all need longevity, no one will refuse to live for a thousand more years. However, the price of increasing longevity is that these people will be enemies of the blood clan.
