Chapter 484: No drinking for minors, sunscreen
Chapter 484: No drinking for minors, sunscreen (5k)
At the gate of the manor, a man wearing an old-fashioned black hooded robe and with a face covered in a layer of mist walked into the manor step by step with slow but firm steps.
Some malicious deathly aura continued to emanate from his body, and the people around him involuntarily stepped back a little, trying to stay away from him.
Very early on, wizards who specialized in this area began to diverge in many directions. From the earliest undead wizards, which included a large category, some people later separated from them and called themselves necromancers.
A few hundred years ago, there was a strict division here. Undead wizards were collectively referred to as a large category, under which were necromancers and necromancers.
Both deal with corpses, bones, ghosts, and various toxins, the biggest difference is that necromancers play with souls, while necromancers do not.
Because the necromancers had once done something big, the outliers in the allied camp all began to follow the church to deal with them.
At the worst times, any one who showed up would be killed in the second, and at that time it was truly black and white, with the intention of eradicating all evil and going to extremes to correct the wrongs, and even if the wizards were not undead wizards, those who were killed were counted as a group.
Later, it spread to the group of witches. A large number of witches were put on the stake as soon as they suffered the beating of the end of the law. Some of them might not even be witches at all. They might have just read more books and learned some knowledge.
Hundreds of years of chaos still have their poisonous effects today. With the revival of spiritual energy, they are gradually facing a counterattack and no one can do anything about it.
When a necromancer appeared at the meeting, most people retreated away and did not shout for fighting. It was simply because times were different now and no one wanted to provoke a necromancer unless their core interests were involved.
There were also some outliers who got the news in advance and understood that the church had been going crazy recently, and they were happy to have something to attract hatred in the front.
In the building in the center of the manor, in the lobby on the first floor, the patriarch of the Toledo family took John and quietly retreated behind the crowd. He pulled John, and his voice rang in John's head.
“I don’t know who invited this necromancer. I didn’t receive any news before.
Now it is obvious that some people here knew the news long ago.
This proves that the person who invited us did not take our Toledo family seriously.
We will not make any comments at this meeting.
Do you remember how I introduced you to the people I introduced you to before?"
John nodded slightly. He remembered how the patriarch introduced them. There were different words for different people. Some were friends, some were allies, and some were close partners. They all sounded positive, but there were actually differences.
The old vampire looked at John's expression, a mysterious smile on his face, and continued.
“Then remember this: those closest allies of our family that I told you about are the bastards we should be most wary of.
It's hard for your enemies to do you serious harm, but it's easy for your allies to do it.
For example, the witch who was only wearing a robe.
This old bitch must have known about the Necromancer long ago, but she didn't reveal even a little bit of information to her closest ally.
According to our agreement, she should have told me the news in advance.
Unfortunately, she didn't do it.
Today I will teach you a lesson. Don't talk, just watch and think more, and tell me what you think later."
After all, the little bat had just reached adulthood. Just before he went out into society, he was forced to undergo a circumcision for a long time. Afterwards, he encountered big scenes one after another. He had a strong sense of danger, but this kind of scene where people were seemingly harmonious but actually full of intrigue was rare.
He stood behind the clan leader, quietly looking at everyone in the venue, just like a younger generation following his elders to some big event, secretly peeking but not daring to look too much for fear of being sensed.
Some people can sense it, but they won't say anything about the curious look of a little bat. After all, they are all people with some status here, and it is really low class to target a little bat.
John lowered his head when he saw the necromancer coming in. That unique temperament was something he would never forget after just one look.
He lowered his head, thinking about this: if the strong man he met in Shenzhou, who could almost ignite him with his natural aura, came here, could he kill all the guys here?
After thinking about it, it should be unlikely. If I kill them too slowly, many of them will definitely run away.
But those dark creatures should be wiped out.
In the end, maybe only people like witches might escape.
John thought about the information he had obtained later. The person he met was called Wen Yan. According to the known information, he was a martial artist in the third stage of martial arts and could not practice Taoism.
I heard that in Shenzhou, those who practice Taoism are the truly powerful people and have a very high status, while warriors have a relatively low status.
John didn't quite believe this kind of information. He felt that his family had been deceived by the person who sold the information, so he went to a mysterious forum, where he discovered a key point while watching some people arguing.
Wen Yan is the martial god in Shenzhou with the title of Tuoba. Some people in Shenzhou are still trying to lead the trend and make people think that this is fake news.
But John knew the moment he saw it, it had to be real.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for a third-stage warrior to be that strong.
Thinking of this, John felt that he was wrong and he could definitely kill them all.
He heard that when Wen Yan burst out with all his strength, the power in his body could even cover an area of dozens of kilometers. Where he lived, even if it was a hundred kilometers away, the dark creatures there would work honestly, and no one even dared to steal money on the street.
At least he had never heard of any top-notch experts in Europe who could exert power covering an area of dozens of kilometers.
After all, he has seen the world, so he doesn't feel any fear towards the necromancer at this moment.
Even though he had heard the legend that the great disaster that killed tens of millions of people was related to the necromancer.
The patriarch of the Toledo family looked at his descendants with a calm expression, without any fear, and nodded with satisfaction.
He hadn't paid much attention to this little guy before, but after taking care of him for a while, he became more and more satisfied with him.
No matter how strong you are, when representing the family, you must not show weakness, and John did this very well.
If they don't show their weakness, others won't know their specific strength, but as long as they show their weakness, others will definitely think they are easy to bully.
As vampires who do not suck blood, their power level is of course different from those vampires who rely on sucking blood to quickly increase their strength, but the advantage is that their related resistance will be higher and more stable.
There are too many vampire families that rise and fall quickly.
The patriarch of the Toledo family was hiding at the back of the crowd, surrounded by vampire families, and was not conspicuous at all here.
In front, the owner of the manor, a believer in Satanism, led the new necromancer to the high platform in the center.
The owner of the manor started speaking first.
“Thank you all for taking the time to come here to attend our annual meeting.
So much has happened in the past year, and so many brothers and sisters have sacrificed for a noble cause.
Times have changed, and the time for the return of the gods has accelerated. We must prepare as soon as possible to meet future challenges.
We must unite everyone we can.
Here, I would like to introduce to you Mr. Smith, the necromancer of this generation.
He was an outstanding wizard and had even been involved in the research of many very strange things.
This time he came, he brought some precious gifts.
This is a really good thing that many wealthy people want to buy but cannot.”
As the owner of the manor clapped his hands, some masked maids came out with trays filled with wine glasses. The red wine in them was bright red, like blood just released from the aorta.
The owner of the manor on the stage introduced himself to everyone with a smile on his face.
"I believe you have all heard of Life Coins. These are red wines that have similar effects to Life Coins. This is a gift from Mr. Smith to you on our first meeting."
Among the aliens below, someone picked up the wine glass and sniffed it. He smelled the rich breath of life and then swallowed it. None of them thought that the owner of the manor dared to cheat so many people in one breath.
The wine glasses were distributed and when they reached the back row, the patriarch of the Toledo family stopped the maid who was walking in front of John.
"My children are underage and are not allowed to drink."
Chief Toredo took a cup himself and waited quietly.
On the high platform, the owner of the manor raised his glass and signaled a toast.
When someone in front of him drank it and various power fluctuations emerged, Chief Toredo drank the red wine in the glass in one gulp without changing his expression.
There were bursts of exclamations, and even a werewolf, because of the excessive vitality that was swallowed, couldn't control himself and completed the transformation on the spot. After a while, when things were quiet again, the owner of the manor came forward and said that he could invite the necromancer to speak.
This so-called necromancer didn't say anything particularly explosive. He was just being polite, saying that he was just working for a better future. He criticized the church for a while, then other religious sects, and was willing to cooperate with everyone.
John, who was standing at the outermost of the crowd, felt a little disappointed. He wanted to see what explosive speech this necromancer would make, but he didn't expect that he was just here to get close to the people here and integrate into the circle first.
The meeting lasted one night and the topics discussed were all very common, such as cooperation, conflicts of interest, conflict resolution, and how to deal with churches in different places and the differences between different places.
When it was almost dawn, the aliens began to leave one after another.
Chief Toledo was among the first to leave, evacuating quickly with John.
They walked away until the sky was bright, and Chief Toledo took John to a cliff by the sea.
The Toledo chief opened his mouth, spat out a cell phone and handed it to John.
"Take a video later, and remember to take it clearly."
After John turned on his phone and adjusted the settings, he waited for less than a minute before the sun rose from the horizon, sweeping over with its rays of light.
Chief Toredo frowned slightly, and wisps of white smoke began to emerge from his body. His abdomen bulged, and he opened his mouth and spat out all the red wine he had drunk before. All the red wine was wrapped in a layer of blood-colored halo.
The halo wrapped around the red wine and transformed into a figure exactly like the necromancer, walking along the same path as the necromancer at that time.
John immediately took the video, with a very steady hand, in full HD.
When the bloody figure began to fluctuate, Chief Toredo immediately threw it away, letting it fall into the sea and dissolve in the sea.
He took John and flew to the bottom of the cliff. Using the shadow of the cliff, he quickly left and returned to his tribe.
The traces they left on the cliff were swept away by the rising sun and quickly disappeared completely.
After returning home, Chief Toredo instructed John to back up the video immediately and then asked the tribesmen to give him an IV and an injection to repair the injuries he had just suffered.
Being hit by the rising sun can cause as much damage as being hit by the midday sun.
"Is it saved?"
"It's saved." John responded honestly. Today was an eye-opener for him. The patriarch was more cunning than he thought... well, much wiser.
"We are pursuing the long term, and the speed of increasing our strength is not as fast as those unscrupulous vampires, so we need wisdom to help us make up for our shortcomings.
The so-called necromancer thought that since his face couldn't be seen and there were no electronic devices there, he wouldn't have to worry about exposing his identity.
It's so naive, the way he walks is his identity.
Remember, whether it is useful or not, you must be prepared in advance.
OK, now tell me what you think.”
"I think that guy, who didn't actually say anything last night but gave away so many things, must have bigger ambitions."
"Well, what else?"
“I think we have to play to our strengths, the advantages that others don’t have.”
"Well, tell me about it."
"For example, we have contact with a mysterious businessman from Shenzhou. I think he must want to know about the appearance of a necromancer."
"and then?"
"It's getting more and more chaotic recently. There are even people with wings in America, appearing on the streets. There are all kinds of messes in the sewers, and people die in the subway every day. I think it's time for us to think about ourselves and have a way out."
John's words were somewhat euphemistic; he didn't dare to say it too clearly.
After he came back before, he didn't dare to say that he had felt the breath of the devil in Shenzhou. It was definitely the devil.
The reason why they dared to talk about Wen Yan was because in the mysterious forum, news about Wen Yan was flying everywhere and the quarrels could last for several days.
He felt that since Shenzhou even had a Demon King, and he lived next to the respected Lord Martial God, it was impossible for the Demon King to be the one in charge in Shenzhou.
Since the Demon King can do it, why can't they find a way out for themselves?
They, the vampires, don't suck blood, so they just need to take some vitamin D and calcium supplements.
"Do you think the development there is promising? I have heard that the progress of Dawn of the Gods there is faster than that of Europa, and it is even more dangerous than Europa."
"You can't put your eggs in the same basket."
"That's right. Our family has investments there. You can go there on behalf of our family and handle these matters.
The situation is indeed not good now. Our family knows best what those necromancers are like.
There can't be a kind necromancer. As long as they want to advance, they will definitely not be kind.
Moreover, there is no necromancer who doesn't want to advance.
You go and contact that mysterious businessman.
Even if he is in jail, I believe you can contact him if you have important news."
"I understand."
John secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't dare to say it clearly, but he actually wanted to moisten it.
He felt it was too dangerous. Every time a necromancer appeared in a high-profile manner, something would happen.
And every time! Every time! After the Necromancer was killed, there would be a bunch of other alien creatures facing the end of the Great Purge.
And many of them were innocent. There was once a kind of elf that loved plants and only ate nectar. They were inexplicably implicated and completely exterminated.
John didn't think that dark creatures like them were any more innocent than those elves.
There are simply too many lessons to be learned.
At the same time, below the cliff where they filmed the video, as time passed and the sun rose to shine on the sea below, some marine fish began to turn over.
The dead sea fish were quickly decomposed by various creatures in the sea. After three waves of deaths in succession, all the debris and remains were swept into the sea and disappeared. Everything was digested by the sea.
No one noticed this, and among the others who swallowed the red wine at that time, some were greedy for the rich vitality contained in the wine, some could not refuse and drank it, thinking that the owner of the manor would not dare to harm so many people at the same time. However, there were also some old foxes who had lived long and woke up after the revival of spiritual energy. They used various methods and made the same choice as Chief Toredo.
The reputation of the Necromancer is really too bad...
On the other hand, John arranged his schedule, and two days later, he put on a suit and tie and boarded a plane to Nanwu County.
Ever since John went back last time, his family has sent people to invest here. In addition to being optimistic about the development, the more important thing is to show an attitude. You saved the young talents of my family, so we do this to express our gratitude.
Therefore, the location of investment was Nanwu County, and no other place was chosen, just to make it clear to the people of Lieyang Tribe.
This time John came in person, passed customs, and registered with the Lieyang Tribe, then he truly set foot in Shenzhou.
The sky was gloomy and it looked like it was going to rain, but the weather was just right. After applying a special sunscreen, I could withstand this level of UV radiation.
When you invest in China, you build a factory directly here. Our flagship product is sunscreen, which is absolutely world-leading. As long as it is genuine, there will be no counterfeit or inferior products.
If there is a problem with the flagship product, the person responsible will be thrown into a drying well to be exposed to the sun.
After getting a new phone and a new SIM card from Shenzhou, John immediately called Lao Meng.
He believed that even if Lao Meng didn't have a phone in prison, the Lieyang Tribe would definitely know that he had called Lao Meng. This was the reason why he applied for a phone card here.
As expected, the call didn't go through, but John was not in a hurry and he sent a text message.
“Dear Meng, I have come to Shenzhou. From today on, I will manage the family’s investment business here. Now I want to make a few deals with you.
I found you a special statue you wanted, and I have another one..."
John paused, gritted his teeth, and continued to send messages.
"News about the necromancer."
