Chapter 283: The Gatekeeper of the Fortress


The alien world is as complex as human society, and they share intrigue and factional rivalry, if not more so.Even in these turbulent times, many heterogeneous families have not been able to work together openly and honestly: this may have something to do with the long history of most of their families.The history of most heterogeneous families stretches from the age of mythology to the present day, and many of the feuds have accumulated over thousands of years, and even if the two families are not estranged, they are too bound by thousands of years of ancient traditions to fully cooperate.That's why such a powerful outlier would be defeated by the witchers and the human church - they were so many races and factions that they were scattered anyway.In this ancient and mysterious European city, there are several powerful alien families and a dozen weak families living together, and in the big picture, they are mutually supportive partnerships, but this is only when facing a common threat such as the witchers, and beyond this premise, the alien families in Athens have always had various forms of open and secret fighting.Of course, they weren't too stupid, so the patriarch of each clan would control these battles within a certain boundary, usually competing for some territory or leadership in the city, and in the event of a particular major discovery, such as the one that was discovered, for the greatest share of profits."

Who is the most powerful person here now?"

Vivien frowned at Hethian, she hadn't been to the city in a long time, and even if she had been there hundreds of years ago, she had passed by in a hurry, this strange and lonely vampire had not paid attention to the power struggles of the aliens, and she was completely confused about the situation here.Hethanna snapped her fingers and introduced: "Of course, the most powerful is the Lucas family, after all, the old blood clan, then the Shadow Demon Behemoth's gang, and then my family, but I am not much different from the Behemoth forces, but they are older than me."

And then there are some people who don't have a lot of climate, and if they have any ideas about the ruins found this time, they can only wait for us to finish dividing them. ”"Isn't that old ghost of Behemoth dead......

"Vivien grinned, "and now the ruins are under your and Lucas's control?"

Will Bethmoss be a troublemaker?

”"The ruins are what I found.However, when the door was opened, the Lucas family helped out, so the entrance was divided equally between the two of us, and of course Bethhemoth wanted to come and get some cheapness, but the nature of the Shadow Demon ......

Hehe.You know, if they want to intervene, it will definitely be more than just a 'point' cheap, so the old stubbornness of the Lucas family and I will temporarily suppress those guys, but it will definitely not be for long, and they will force their way into the ruins even if they use the strong ones. ”"How's your relationship with the Lucas family?"

Vivien asked curiously."

Haven't you already cooperated?

Why did you just say that they were non-violent and non-cooperative......"

Heatherana was angry at the mention of this: "That's what I'm going to say!"

They bully people because of their seniority!

Now they're in control of the ruins with me, but their attitude is clearly that they already think of themselves as the owners of the ruins!

And with the Lucas family's credo of 'blood supremacy', they will certainly not allow anyone who is not a blood to enter the ruins.For the time being, they were willing to share it with me, and it was for the sake of their fellow blood clans, and I was the first person to find the entrance—they couldn't afford to be honest enough to take the credit. ”At the end of her speech, Hethanna glanced at Hao Ren and the others, and the meaning was obvious: these people were not blood clans, and the Lucas family would not allow these people to get involved in the ruins."

They did invite me," Hesperith chuckled subtly, "I'm not a Blood, but the current patriarch of House Lucas has to bow respectfully when he sees me."

And the entrance to the ruins is near Athena's temple.It's technically my family's domain......

Although the Olympians have dissolved, as long as I, the heir, remain in the Greek peninsula, they will have to greet me about the ruins.The Lucas family is like that: stubborn, self-contained, arrogant, yet in this age unfashionably adhered to the gentlemanly manners and manners of many years ago.If you really want to go to the ruins, you should be able to start with this: Vivien's qualifications have a lot of weight in front of the patriarch of the Lucas family, and if you ask, they should consider it. ”Vivien nodded thoughtfully, and Hao Ren had a general understanding of the situation of several major forces in the city.And what kind of people the Lucas family were.He felt that the Lucas family should be the so-called "rooted" vampires, arrogant enough, indifferent enough, and disliked enough.But at the same time, he maintains enough gentlemanly demeanor and strict etiquette in very subtle places - people don't like it, but always feel good about themselves.Although such a group of "people" is quite troublesome for Hao Ren, he has to admit that they are in line with Hao Ren's original impression of the image of vampires, Vivian and Hethiana, these two living treasures, really make him can't believe that they belong to the normal guys in the vampire race......

"If you want to find the old stubborn Lucas family, I will arrange it for you." ”Hethanna said.Vivien exchanged glances with Hao Ren and nodded, and Hethanna snapped her fingers, and layers of black phantoms appeared in the air.After the apparition dissipated, a tall thin man in a black trench coat appeared in front of everyone, this pale vampire should be Hethiana's servant, he silently glanced at everyone quickly, and then pressed his right hand on his left chest and bowed deeply to his mistress: "What does the mistress command?"

”"Go and inform the old stubborn of the Lucas family that 'the Countess who has summoned the Red Moon' wants to see him.Remember, be tough, be high, you're speaking for the most senior ancients in the world, and we're going to stop those guys who are used to looking at people through their nostrils from the start.Well, don't say 'ask to meet', just say 'meet', it's Lord Vivien who wants to 'meet' him, understand?

”The male vampire bowed again, his voice gentle and calm: "Mistress, what if one of them is unhappy and wants to kill me?"

”Heathera thought for a moment: "Then you run quickly, usually they don't bother to chase you in this situation." ”The male vampire nodded with a serious expression, and turned into a large group of bats and flew out from the open glass window not far away, Hao Ren was stunned: "This TM can also be?"

”Hethanna proudly puffed up: "I, the Hethanna family, are the most famous changemakers in the Bloodline!"

”Lily poked Vivien's arm, "......

It's a piece of meat that fell off you. ”"If you say this again, I'll really bite you!""

Bite it, bite it, you still compare teeth with me?

They all eat with their teeth, I'm afraid of you!

”Hao Ren has one head and two big: "Can't you be quiet at this time?"

Let's get down to business!

”At this moment, a strange bell sound came from nowhere, not very loud but seemed to ring directly in everyone's minds, giving people the feeling that it was like the bell of the soul on the other side of the Styx, and Hao Ren couldn't help but have the illusion that layers of fog dissipated in this bell.Hesperius stood up: "You keep talking, there's a guest coming, I'll go and entertain you." ”As she spoke, her figure faded into a vague phantom that could barely be seen without looking closely, and at the same time the door of the antique shop was pushed open, but it was also such a very vague and transparent phantom that walked in.Hao Ren looked curiously twice, and found that what seemed to be a person in modern dress - suit and leather shoes, which was incompatible with the eerie atmosphere of the antique store and the view of the shadowy layer outside.The figure seemed completely unaware of the crowd in the store, and he walked straight to the counter and struck up a conversation with the image of Hesperith."

That's the scene of the real world," Hethanna took the initiative to explain when she noticed the curious look on Hao Ren's face, "This is actually the intersection of the shadow layer and the real world, and this shop of Hesperith's predecessor exists in both the shadow layer and the real world, and when the bell rings, she can directly shuttle between the real world and the shadow world without being affected by the shadow layer."

It's also one of the entrances to a deeper world of shadows, and you'll have to get her permission if you want to go any further, so we're also called the 'Gatekeeper of the Fortress' - though she doesn't seem to like that very much. ”"Uh......

All in all, it's magical. ”Hao Ren was convinced.The world of magic and mystery......

It's amazing.

(Let me think about it......

Well, the double monthly pass is still in progress, and there is still a monthly pass to clear the warehouse as soon as possible!
