Chapter 279 New Clues on the Day of Return
Vivian re-established spiritual connections with all her bats. Most of these bats were successfully sent to their destinations, but only a small number of them found the people they were looking for - those who had not been in contact for decades or hundreds of years. Most of the hermits don't stay in one place for too long, and Vivian has been cut off from them for too long. It may not be that easy to find all her old friends now. If it were in the past, Vivian would not have minded this. Anyway, in the past thousands of years, she rarely took the initiative to contact other aliens, and most of the acquaintances she met were casual encounters, and whoever she met was counted. But now she It's a bit of a headache: as a veteran vampire, she feels that her understanding of alien societies may not be as good as some demon hunters, which makes her feel quite useless.
But no matter what, she still successfully contacted some old guys and got a lot of useful information. And the news that the "countess who summoned the red moon" suddenly appeared again and took the initiative to contact the ancients will probably spread among the heterogeneous society soon. Vivian knew very well that her actions would arouse unnecessary speculation from many people, but she There is no other way: "The Oldest Vampire" is a big name in itself. No matter how indifferent she is, this name will make those who don't know the truth make too many guesses. If the idlers want to make some big news...just let them.
Now she only pays attention to whether the vegetable soup in front of her is ready, and whether she has made the hungry ghosts at the dinner table wait too long - she feels that this is the most valuable time in her life of more than 10,000 years, which is better than the noisy things in the past. The mythical age of running around and killing people was much more interesting.
"It's time to eat, it's time to eat!" Vivian summoned two groups of little bats to transport the hot soup and freshly cooked beans to the dining table. A circle of listless hungry ghosts suddenly became energetic as if they were resurrected. Hao Ren He pulled out a chair for her diligently: "I'm just waiting for you. Let's eat first—"
Lily was the most active about the food. She didn't wait for the bats to put the soup pot down before leaning forward and serving herself a bowl of soup: "Ha, a bowl of vegetable soup when you get up early will make you feel happy and happy all day long..."
This kind of life is indeed much more interesting than the mythical era of Laoshizi.
However, Lily filled a bowl of vegetable soup and frowned as soon as she took a sip: "Hey, Bat, this soup doesn't taste right... Not only did you forget to put in the seasonings, but there seems to be too much stuff in there, right?"
Hao Ren still didn't believe it: "How could it be possible? When did Vivian's craftsmanship have problems..."
As a result, before he finished speaking, he heard a crash in the pot next to him. Doudou poked his head out of the pot with a head of green onions and greens, holding two wrinkled coriander leaves in his hands. The little guy's face was red. The whole body is filled with the smell of vegetable soup...
Vivian's face turned red when she saw this situation, and she realized what was going on on the spot: she was a little too excited to chat with someone about long distances just now, and it really went wrong to multitask. She was cooking vegetable soup and beans, adding some to the soup. Yanba sprinkled Doudou with two handfuls of chopped green onion, and the little guy didn't even say a word: Don't Doudou find the vegetable leaves floating around him strange?
"Ah, I'm distracted." Vivian waved her hands awkwardly, while Hao Ren next to her stretched out a spoon and waved it in front of Doudou: "Is this... still edible?"
Doudou was indeed a good boy. He immediately put the chopped green onion and green vegetables on his hair into the spoon, then used his little hands to hold several handfuls of water and added it to the spoon. Finally, he diligently pushed the spoon over and said, "Pop...eat... Eat..." Although she was born to eat bamboo and wood, she knew that the things in the pot were edible to Hao Ren.
Hao Ren put the spoon back into the pot: no matter how hard his nerves were, he couldn't eat it at this time.
"Actually, I got in touch with an old friend. I was a little distracted by what I was talking about just now," Vivian smiled awkwardly. It was rare for a god-level cook like her to make such a low-level mistake, so she quickly thought of a solution at this time. Diverting Hao Ren's attention, "Most people have moved, but we still contacted six or seven who were too lazy to move."
As soon as Hao Ren heard this, he no longer paid attention to the beans and vegetable soup. He was still thinking about the information about the day of return: "What's new?"
Vivian combed her hair: "First of all, it is certain that the 'Day of Return' event has indeed spread to all heterogeneous groups. Even the smallest organizations are planning this matter. Several prestigious families in the Vampire Clan They are currently operating in Northern Europe. They seem to be preparing to excavate a ruins in the Arctic Circle. However, it is said that a demon hunter has inquired about the information in advance, and the excavation plan has been temporarily shelved. There are also some aliens who are seeking foreign aid from outside their race - this It’s a new phenomenon.”
Aliens are a group that is stuck in its own ways. Although it is a bit too direct to say this, the fact is the fact. The vast majority of heterogeneous families are closed. Although they are declining, they always maintain an almost paranoid and arrogant attitude. They will hardly seek help from outside the family, let alone seek any foreign aid from outside the race.
The above are the exact words Vivian once said to Hao Ren.
But now the stimulation of the "Day of Return" seems to have loosened the stubbornness of the heterogeneous ethnic groups. They have begun to abandon their sectarian differences and seek cooperation, and even seek cooperation outside the race.
Hao Ren smacked his lips: "It seems that this matter is quite big, but I don't think they can unite. Not to mention whether the demon hunters will let these dangerous elements get together, just because the heterogeneous people have a deep-rooted mentality of mutual exclusion. It’s not easy to solve.”
"Yes, so the real coalition of forces has not yet appeared. At most, some relatively active families are wooing some 'old-timers', such as those who have survived from the mythical era and the post-mythological era. These old guys have lived too long They have been living in seclusion for a long time, and they no longer care much about race differences, and they are definitely interested in the day of return, so it is still possible to come out. The guys I contacted have all been attracted to more or less, and among them There are two people who are not very smart and seem to have decided to leave the mountain... Tsk, to be dragged out by a bunch of juniors so easily, it’s really like they have lived like dogs for so many years.”
Lily slapped the table: "Just say it, don't give me such an example! What year have I not lived like a dog?"
Hao Ren grabbed half a steamed bun and stuffed it into Lily's mouth to gag her: "Eat well, you are everywhere. You are blindly sensitive when you shouldn't be, and insensitive when you should be."
Then he turned to look at Vivian: "So... you should be among those being attracted. After all, you are... well, you have a lot of experience."
Hao Ren almost said the words "old guy", but when he looked at Vivian's youthful and beautiful face, he just couldn't say these three words. The age issue of aliens was really too bad. How dare you believe that the sister in front of you kicked hundreds of people into the moat during the Trojan War? How dare you believe that the eighteen-year-old girl in front of you was only eighteen years old thirteen thousand years ago? How dare you believe that she plans to continue to be eighteen years old after thirteen thousand years...
Vivian smiled at Hao Ren. She didn't know what her mentality was. Not only was she not shy about the age issue, but she also liked to joke about it: "Yeah, I can be considered a target of being attracted - it's a pity. Either they couldn't find where I lived, or they knew from the beginning that I definitely wouldn't mess around."
Lily swallowed the steamed bun hard: "Or there is a third possibility: they all know that you have amnesia caused by malnutrition all year round. You can't even remember your name, and you have forgotten a lot of your fighting skills, so you can't count on it at all. "
Hao Ren had no choice but to stuff Lily another steamed bun.
"Is there any more specific information about the date of return?" Hao Ren glanced at Betsy calmly, who was teasing the quirky Doudou with chopsticks while chewing the steamed buns, and then looked at the bitten His uneven chopsticks were stunned, and he couldn't pay attention to this side for the time being, "Especially... related to the 'gate' and other information."
In Hao Ren's impression, the core of the day of return should be something similar to a "gate", or a natural phenomenon. As long as this loophole that allowed aliens to travel to the earth tens of thousands of years ago can be found, not to mention Bei Qi's problem was solved, and he had done a great job in his job as a prosecutor, so he was most concerned about this.
"What I was about to say," Vivian nodded, "A vampire family seems to have found a very important relic on the Greek Peninsula, and they also want to recruit an ancient person living there to solve the relic. I got this news from the ancient one. If you have nothing to do... maybe we can go there? "
