Rise from the coffin and rebuild the vampire empire

Chapter 187 Faith
Elentia worked as a secretary for Lyle, and this matter naturally reached the ears of the "Blood King" Karen.

As the ruler behind "Wangbo Port", Karen is naturally paying attention to the entire Wangbo Port, and the "vampire reserves" have always been the focus of attention and investigation, so this matter will naturally be known to him.

Karen didn't care about Lyle's little thoughts. It was inevitable. Marriage was the most direct way to consolidate one's status. By combining the power of the two families into one, everyone could work together and naturally maintain their status better.

There is no such powerful "clan" in the current "Wangbo Port". Everyone comes from a poor background and started from scratch here together. In fact, their union cannot even be called a "marriage". They are just getting married and living together.

Are the authorities going to stop these two from getting married? Just because they're both vampires or "vampire reserve"? That's totally unnecessary.

Besides, vampires can fall in love freely among themselves, and the restrictions are not that strict. Even if they are descendants of several generations apart, or even with other blood lines, it has nothing to do with each other.

Speaking of "clans", in the entire "Wangbo Port" today, the largest "clan" is indeed the "Cremona Family" of the Lyle family. The family of the first governor will all become vampires, and there will be no second family in the entire "Wangbo Port".

This is not true. The "Cremona" family is considered a "new clan", and the largest "old clan" is Werner's "Desolate Family".

The "Huangwu Family" has a long heritage, a large number of people, and they all have unique skills. There are many "vampire mages" and many "vampire reserves". Now even the number of "vampires" is gradually increasing. It is well-deserved to be the number one clan in "Wangbo Port".

However, Werner is Karen's "loyal dog" and always follows Karen's lead. After officially becoming the current leader of the "Miss" clan, Werner has become even more obsessed with research, and he will not rely on "marriage" to fight for power and profit.

The "Desolate House" is now basically completely rooted in the Magic Academy, focusing on teaching, and has not extended its tentacles to other places. Even the original naval field is gradually being decentralized, and the navy is gradually being handed over to Drake for management.

Of course, the "Desolation" must still be controlled by the people of the "Desolation Family". This is their "ancestral land" and the origin of their family name, so it naturally cannot be directly taken over for public use.

Although Werner took the initiative to say that this was "property of the empire", Karen would not really disappoint his loyal minister. It was just a ship. He made the decision directly and donated the "Desolation" to the "Desolation Family", turning it into the private property of the "Desolation Family".

In fact, there is almost no loss for Karen to do this, because as long as Werner is loyal to him, the "Desolation" will still go out to do things whenever there is something to do.

In comparison, what is really important are the people of "Desolate House", not a ship.

If we confiscate this ship and cause the people of the "Desolate Family" to become disunited, it would be a loss.

Now, although the "Desolation" nominally belongs to the "Desolation Family", Werner still registered it under the name of the navy and it is still under the control of the navy department of "Wangbo Port". The main idea is to reward you for what you have, and I will still do it according to the original method. Werner still regards the "Desolation" as public property.

All I can say is that Werner is indeed a loyal minister under Karen. He is now obsessed with magic research and does not fight for power or profit at all. He looks like he is completely indifferent to fame and fortune and is focused on scientific research.

In fact, Lyle had considered joining forces with the "Desolate Family" at the beginning, but later gave up. He didn't consider anything else, but just felt that the power of the "Desolate Family" was indeed a bit too great and the family was too big.

If ordinary people marry into their family, they will most likely be completely absorbed into the family and become its subordinates, marrying into a "desolate family".

Obviously, this is something that Lyle and Kevin cannot accept. In addition, the development paths of the two parties are also different.

If the "Desolate Family" wants to concentrate on scientific research, then Lyle and the others really can't help much, nor can they lend any strength. After all, Werner has always acted as if he is no longer involved in politics.

In short, the two choices that Lyle finally made, Alyssa and Elentia, were choices he had carefully considered.

Karen didn't comment on this. As long as both parties were willing, it was fine. But if Lyle dared to do anything out of the ordinary or cause any trouble, Karen would definitely punish him severely.

Speaking of "Abandoned House" and Werner, Karen took out the skull. Just a few days ago, Werner had completed the "upgrade" of it. At this time, the "communication skull" has more functions.

For example, to "dial", Karen activated the "Communication Skull", and a puff of smoke spewed out of the mouth of the skull. The smoke formed something like a "dial keyboard" above the skull, and you can "dial" by just pressing the button.

"Dudududu!"

Karen dialed the number, and after a series of "clicks", the "Communication Skeleton" directly dialed the phone of Florian Silverleaf, the "Governor of Silverleaf Port" who was far away in Silverleaf Port.

The problem that this "communication device" could only contact one person has finally been solved. Now, just dial the corresponding number to contact the corresponding device.

Such a useful device was naturally sent to Florian Silver Leaf, or rather, this thing is suitable for long-distance use.

"My lord, what can I do for you?"

After the "call" was connected, the "communication skeleton" spoke, and the voice of Florian Silver Leaf came out from it.

"How's the construction of the temple going?"

Karen asked, which silenced Florian Silverleaf for a moment.

"My lord, it's almost finished."

After a pause, Florian Silverleaf answered.

"Okay, but from now on, the authorities will no longer deepen our faith."

Karen continued to speak, and this time his true intentions were exposed. He was still targeting the faith of the High Elves, but he also knew that he couldn't be impatient, and this change could only be achieved through the subtle influence of time.

The faith of "Prince of Starlight" Aslani is not easy to shake for the time being. Moreover, as the spiritual pillar of the high elves connecting to "Silver Leaf Harbor", even this faith cannot be touched for the time being.

What Karen can do is to stop the authorities from deepening and emphasizing this belief.

Those high elves have already followed us to the New World and have no way to retreat. Officially, there is naturally no need to use the title of "Prince of Starlight" Aslani to attract everyone.

As a "tool," "Prince of Starlight" Aslani's mission had clearly been fulfilled, and he would be gradually removed from the fold to make room for Karen. Karen certainly wouldn't cultivate followers for "Prince of Starlight" Aslani; that wasn't his style.

Florian Yinye was silent, and this time the silence lasted a little longer.

The last time, which was nearly two months ago, when Florian Silverleaf formally came to visit Karen, Karen actually did not dwell too much on the issue of faith, because Karen also understood that the faith of "Prince of Starlight" Aslani was a useful tool that must be used.

Now, after almost two months, the great migration of the High Elves is about to end, and Karen has also put forward new demands.

"I understand, my lord."

Florian Silverleaf replied respectfully.

Florian Yinye knew that this question was actually a test for him. It seemed that he had a choice, but in fact he had no choice.

The issue of faith is a very important issue. The "Blood King" is obviously plotting something at a higher level, so it is given special attention. Florian Yinye is very clear about this because he observed this clue in "Wangbo Port".

After all, Florian Silverleaf had lived for a long time and was well-informed. From the propaganda about Karen in "Wangbo Port", he glimpsed Karen's idea of seeking to become a god.

In fact, Karen did not hide anything. What was there to hide on his own territory?
So Florian Yinye knew very well that he had no other choice when faced with Karen's problem.

"Let's take it slow first."

Seeing that Florian Yinye understood what he meant, Karen didn't say anything more, but just added that this matter could not be rushed. He understood that, and Florian Yinye must understand it too.

"Yes, my lord."

Florian Silver Leaf naturally understood that this matter must not be rushed, otherwise it might shake the foundation of "Silver Leaf Port".

The communication was disconnected, and Florian Yinye breathed a sigh of relief.

Facing Karen, the "Lord of Blood", Florian Yinye was also nervous and did not dare to overstep the line.

A person's name is like a tree's shadow. A great reputation naturally makes people afraid, but it is also because of the great reputation of the "Lord of Blood" that they come to seek refuge. This is also a cause and effect relationship.

Fortunately, based on our current contact, this "Blood King" is actually a very rational and reasonable vampire.

So although Florian Yinye was cautious, he was not too flustered. He still had the time and ability to figure out what Karen meant and to guess the thoughts of his superiors.

During this period of time, Florian Silverleaf has not been idle in "Silverleaf Port". He has been thinking about the future of the high elves in "Silverleaf Port" and the future development direction of "Silverleaf Port".

"First of all, the craftsmanship of the elven crafts must not be lost."

The first thing Florian Yinye determined was that matters related to handicrafts and commerce must not be lost.

Although Silver Leaf Port is located far away and is not as competitive as the "High Elf Islands" when trading with the human world, it is still a very rare commodity. If a ship comes to the New World, it can still be sold well as long as the price is right.

Besides, it is far away from the "human world". This so-called "human world" is actually the "old world", and the new continent where they are located may not be able to develop into a new "human world" in the future.

For the "new human world" to be formed in the future, their "Silver Leaf Port" will have great attraction and priority. The elf products of the "new human world" will definitely be purchased from them first. The future of "Silver Leaf Port" can be said to be bright.

In short, no matter whether such a future will come or not, the skills they have in their hands cannot be discarded so easily.

Elf handicrafts, clothing, etc. must be developed into the flagship products of "Silver Leaf Port". Even if the price is lowered in the early stage and the profit is less, this brand must be maintained.

On this issue, Florian Silverleaf talked with Uther, the governor of "Wangbo Port", who strongly supported his idea and expressed that he would try his best to help "Silverleaf Port" sell goods.

Before Karen and Florian Silverleaf called, Florian Silverleaf had just discussed this issue with Uther. Uther told him not to worry, because "Port Wangbo" had established trade relations with the Magrath Province of the Human Empire, and the other party would definitely be interested in elven handicrafts.

Florian Silverleaf had no doubt about this. The Magras people did not have a large share of trade in Iseng.

Because these Magrath people always had conflicts with the "High Elf Kingdom" at sea, and even deliberately plundered the High Elves, this made Iseng very angry, and he limited the trade volume with Magrath. The official relationship between Iseng and Magrath was not harmonious.

So, when "Port Wangbo" does business with the Magrath people, their high elf products are really very easy to sell, which gives Florian Silver Leaf great confidence to persevere.

Florian Silver Leaf was also very grateful to Uther, the governor of "Wangbo Port". The other party had indeed been cooperating with their work seriously and had been trying hard to help them.

Although some small actions were taken, it is understandable overall. After all, wanting to attract some high elves to live in "Wangbo Port" is essentially a manifestation of recognition of their high elves. There is no need to say that they have malicious intentions.

However, although he was grateful to Uther, Florian Silverleaf certainly had no intention of getting married.

If you have to say, the "Silver Leaf Family" in "Silver Leaf Port" is actually the real largest "clan" under Karen.

But Lyle actually hadn't thought about marrying someone from the Yinye family. It was obvious that Okanina Yinye, who had been staying in "Wangbo Port" for some time and had frequent contact with him, was also single.

All I can say is that Lyle's mind is still very clear. Although everyone becomes an "immortal" after becoming a vampire, there is no problem with lifespan.

But which of these high elves hadn't lived for hundreds or even thousands of years? They weren't so easy to fool. Marrying into a high elf, marrying into the Silver Leaf family, wouldn't be as good as marrying into the Desolate Family. In the end, you'd have to be integrated into the other family anyway.
