American variety show world begins with subduing Jason

"Is this your stupid plan?"

The owner of the foot posed a gentle and elegant question.

His tone was extremely gentle, yet his words were full of sarcasm and irony.

"Take advantage of the music festival and release the little cuties that are magically catalyzed into the lake, let them make some noise."

"Hmm, why do that?"

“Yes…yes, we have set up several similar locations throughout the Federation…in order to…” The middle-aged white man said hesitantly, his eyes flickering.

A broken, fanatical voice suddenly rang out from the side, interrupting his answer.

"Ahem... For the great revival! A new era has arrived... Ahem... The great Dark Nobles will surely rule this world again! First, they must deplete the power of humanity—"

The frenzied shouting stopped abruptly.

The foot that had been on the middle-aged man was lowered, and a young man with black hair, black eyes, and a handsome and charming face slowly turned around.

Five slender, crimson wisps of mist extended from his left hand, pinning a "human figure" to the rock wall.

The "humanoid" had its muscles bulging and its limbs twisted unnaturally, clearly broken. It had sharp teeth and claws, protruding canines, and a pair of bat wings covered in fine down and adorned with dark red magic patterns that drooped limply. It was clearly a vampire with considerable strength!

"I don't like it when someone interrupts when I'm asking a question... especially such a stupid lie!"

The handsome young man smiled gently, his dignified and elegant demeanor as if he were attending a high-society ball, showing no sign of the ruthlessness he would kill at will.

"I'll talk! I'll talk!" The middle-aged white man cried out in panic as his companion was killed in the blink of an eye.

The mysterious young man who suddenly appeared and captured him and his partner was clearly extremely violent. If you answered even slightly carelessly, you would be done for on the spot!

"The real purpose of detonating the pre-arranged locations in sequence is to temporarily restrain the power of the federal government. The plan has been in preparation for several years. As for the deeper reasons, we don't know them. The elders won't tell us..."

As he spoke of his fear and trepidation, the four sharp canines in the middle-aged white man's mouth gleamed coldly, revealing that he was also a vampire.

"Hehe..." Upon hearing this, the handsome young man raised his eyebrows and a strange, eerie smile appeared on his face.

"What a coincidence! I came to receive a dessert from a servant, and I just happened to stumble upon something that concerns me."

He extended a long, slender index finger and tapped his chin, pretending to think for a moment.

"As a loyal federal employee, I cannot stand idly by and watch your egregious behavior go unpunished. I have no choice but to impose just sanctions to protect the interests of the Federation... But..."

The handsome young man changed the subject, leaned down, and chuckled softly.

"After all, you're working for my 'feast,' which, in a way, means you're working for me..."

Go ahead and don't worry, I'll carry out the plan for you and release these little cuties.

The middle-aged vampire's expression was filled with fear and deep confusion. He couldn't understand why the powerful figure who had suddenly appeared before him, who claimed to belong to the Federation, would help him complete his plan by releasing the demonized creature into the lake.

Didn't he know that would cause a large number of human deaths and injuries?

As if sensing the other person's confusion, the handsome young man's lips curled into a wide smile, revealing an extremely happy expression.

"It's because I... love lively fun the most, but... as a federal employee, there are always some people who stop me from having fun, and what happened today wasn't my doing, so it doesn't count as breaking the 'agreement'."

"Besides... I've already caught all of those few you released the day before yesterday for the experiment..."

The handsome young man waved his hand solemnly, tossing several clumps of silvery, foul-smelling flesh onto the ground.

"Even if those annoying guys up above press me for an answer, I have a reason to give it..."

"It's all the enemy's fault for being too cunning; they even hid a second batch of little darlings. All I could do was arrive in time to kill you two culprits and bring solace to the innocent victims."

He shrugged, seemingly helpless, but his eyes held a hint of smugness. "You have to understand, the essence of being a civil servant lies in how to reasonably shirk responsibility!"

After saying that, the handsome young man casually pulled, and several wisps of crimson mist, like invisible hands, swept the vampire corpses on the rock wall towards him.

The red mist, seemingly thin and fragile, as if a gentle breeze could disperse it, now appeared like a divine weapon, slicing the iron-hard body of the dark creature into pieces with a few deft cuts, which fell into the pool below.

As the vampire's corpse was thrown in, the once tranquil pool instantly boiled over like a pot, churning up crimson water.

Chapter 148 Deadly Intent in the Deep Water 2

Seeing the large and small shadows beneath the water's surface churning more and more violently, the handsome young man raised his index finger in front of his mouth and hissed.

"Shh! Quiet, my little darlings, don't rush. You can only go out to play after my servant brings the 'sweets' he found."

As he spoke, a vast and profound power descended and vanished in an instant, calming the pool. All the creatures hidden within immediately lost their ferocity and became as docile as chickens.

Although they are born from evil forces and have little intelligence, they instinctively realize that the other party's life level is so high that it can easily control the life and death of its own kind with a breath or a glance.

Just as felines will roll over and expose their bellies when facing a stronger predator, according to the laws of nature, they also immediately showed their submission to this powerful creature in their own way.

Even if prey enters the water at this moment, they will not attack rashly without their permission.

As higher dark creatures, vampires are naturally not as mindless as lower aquatic life forms. The middle-aged vampire lying on the ground trembled violently, his mouth opening and closing like a fish out of water.

He keenly sensed the dark power emanating from the handsome young man, a power as distant as the boundless night sky and as deep as the bottomless abyss.

Throughout their long lives, middle-aged vampires have experienced similar but far inferior powers many times, and are all too familiar with them.

It was an existence of the same origin and kind as himself, but at a higher level. The mere leakage of a trace of it made every drop of his blood, every piece of his flesh, and every part of his soul tremble and want to prostrate himself on the ground.

"My lord... uh, Your Highness..."

Knowing that life and death hang in the balance, the middle-aged vampire's mind raced.

“I am willing to submit to you! Your status is enough to suppress the blood pact the elders placed on me…”

Young and beautiful blood slaves, extraordinary treasures accumulated over time, shares in human companies secretly held—I will offer everything I possess to adorn your glory…

Furthermore, there was a follow-up to this plan: we secretly hypnotized a nearby paleontologist.

After the attack, he would come forward and claim to the authorities that the incident was caused by an ancient alien species living in the underground lake, and that the alien species contained ingredients that could prolong life, in order to attract those greedy politicians to send more people.

Once they reach the bottom of the lake, we'll release even stronger demonic creatures. Taking advantage of the underwater world and our prior preparations, we can at least wipe out one of their squads here..."

hiss!

The middle-aged white vampire stared blankly, bewildered, at the few wisps of crimson mist that had pierced his chest. His lips trembled, and his face contorted in a twitch.

Why? Since you are not entirely loyal to the federal government, why are you unwilling to accept the allegiance of a fellow citizen with some power? He screamed wildly in his heart.

The crimson mist trembled slightly, drawing drops of jewel-like scarlet liquid from his body and into the handsome young man's hand.

As the lifeblood essential to vampires was completely drained, the middle-aged vampire's consciousness slowly plummeted into eternal chaos.

Only then did he suddenly realize that his companion had become a dried-up corpse before being cut into pieces!

"You are a kinslayer..." In his final moments, he mustered the last of his strength to utter the most vicious curse he could think of.

"You have violated the highest precepts of our race and will surely suffer endless punishment..."

The middle-aged vampire's voice lowered, gradually losing all its vitality.

However, his dying curses were nothing but meaningless lamentations to the handsome young man.

"Parenticide? NO..."

I treat all life equally, except for myself.

—All of it is food!

With a slight movement of his toes, the young man unleashed a force that shattered the middle-aged vampire, now a dried-up corpse, into countless fragments, which rained down upon the pool.

A clear yet cruel smile, like that of a child playing a prank, appeared on his face.

"Two knight-rank vampire corpses should make these little cuties a bit stronger, right? I hope you can create even more chaos and bring me even more joy..."

"Humph!"

Before he could finish speaking, the black-haired youth's body suddenly trembled violently!

A clear and solemn light emanated from his forehead, instantly transforming into a thorny chain composed of pure white characters, binding him firmly within it.

The sharp thorns formed by holy light clung tightly to the skin's surface, coldly sliding back and forth, scorching wisps of black smoke. Even though they didn't actually pierce the flesh, they still brought intense pain.

Even though the handsome young man possessed an unfathomable depth of dark power, at this moment he could only tense his muscles and silently suppress his urge to struggle.

it's useless……

Since he was "born" into this world, he has tried to rebel countless times!

"As power increases, the constraints become stricter. Now, even indulging in the indirect harm to humans will be punished?"

Enveloped in a dense thicket of holy light that seemed almost tangible, the youth murmured to himself.

"The vampire clan's prohibition against patricide? What's that? Look..."

This is the true supreme precept…!

After a long while, seemingly feeling that the punishment had been severe enough, the bright thorns of light slowly retracted into his brow, the divine runes collapsed, and transformed into a small, square phantom that seemed to be filled with words, which then vanished without a trace.

"Ha ha……"

A gentle, elegant laugh came from the handsome young man's mouth, growing louder and louder, echoing in the empty cave.

From gentle to gradually unrestrained, and finally turning into madness!

Beneath the laughter lay a deep-seated resentment that even the waters of the five lakes and four seas could not wash away!

……

...

Did I misremember the details, or did I get the location of the story wrong?

Surely the 'main god' changed the storyline, right? Heh...

Zhu Mingyao rubbed his face in frustration and told a lame joke.

What are you muttering to yourself over there?

A pretty face with a displeased expression appeared from the side.

"Are you still stuck in your paranoia? Come help us move our things, we need to go back to the hotel!"

The little witch Madison glared at him and said with a mocking tone.

Zhu Mingyao pursed his lips, stood up unsteadily, glanced around, and sighed inwardly.

The first day of the water music festival has ended, and the tourists, exhausted from a day of fun, began to leave the venue one after another.

The beach, which was just a moment ago bustling with people, has now receded like the tide, leaving large empty areas in no time. Only a dozen or so temporary cleaners hired by the town are left, grumbling as they walk through the scattered trash.
