Chapter 290 Vampire’s Banquet (Wu Wu)
The relationship between aliens, humans, and demon hunters is far more chaotic than a simple team battle between the three parties. Among them, aliens and demon hunters are absolutely irreconcilable, but with a large population like humans, With complex and changeable groups mixed in this endless battle, the situation will naturally become more complicated. You can't expect a group of billions of people to support one side of the aliens or the demon hunters, and you can't expect them to not have a few non-mainstream groups - the kind of people who are afraid of chaos or that they die too late. There have always been groups that worship demons, werewolves, or vampires from ancient times to the present day. Just like the demon hunters failed to completely eliminate the aliens, the human orthodox church also failed to completely eliminate these heretical organizations. The latter were forced underground like their masters, but they still continued to survive.
Not only are they thriving, they have even found a new way to survive in this new era - they have reorganized into companies, and many of them have gone public! What you signed with your dark master before was called a contract, and what you signed now is called a contract. When you offered sacrifices in the past, it was called offerings. Now when you offer sacrifices, it's called turning in profits. In the past, the incantations recited during the worship ceremony were called curses. Now they are called curses. The communication between his dark masters is called the annual summary report. These days, even if a vampire seeks a lesson from his human followers, it will be in the name of the company's year-end cultural exchange meeting. A few brave ones will invite local reporters to visit...
Of course, in the end, those who seek death often end up dead. Do you know how many CEOs of large companies disappear every year just by staying at home? God knows how many of these were at the hands of witchers. The war between the dark forces has never stopped, but the bloody battles are hidden in places where ordinary people cannot detect them.
Hao Ren had some subtle feelings about the existence of this kind of human group. In ancient times, humans had no choice but to worship aliens. In that turbulent era, aliens were rampant across the land. There were a few "kind" aliens who were willing to raise humans like livestock. It is already a great refuge. Of course, the weak and powerless people on earth can only tremble and regard their terrible protector as a god. But nowadays, there are still people who are willing to serve aliens. It can only make people lament that non-mainstream ideas are everywhere. It can take root and sprout in any era - of course, he is not prejudiced against aliens, nor does he have any contempt for those heretical groups. After all, there is no normal person around him, and even he himself is considered a deviant to some extent. Protector of the alien. He just felt that it was a bit subtle: what he saw in the movie overlapped with reality, but in a subtle way.
Hesiana was very dismissive of Hao Ren's sighs: "What are you sighing for? Aren't you a human wizard yourself?"
"My wizard may be different from what you have in mind." The matter of the Space-Time Management Bureau could not be explained. Hao Ren could only explain it with a dry smile, "Actually, we are under contract..."
"We are also on a contract basis," Hesiana gritted her teeth. "We also sign health blood supply agreements and year-end welfare security systems for the people below."
Hao Ren felt that this topic was unclear.
"Speaking of which, the human groups you support outside...what do they basically do?" Lily asked curiously. Hesiana was holding a piece of bloody steak and stuffing it into Vivian's mouth. He turned around and replied proudly: "You can do everything. Society is progressing in the development era. The Lucas family has supported two clothing factories and a software company. I have two high-end imitation brands and One who studies mining equipment. By the way, I sent a few cadres to China a while ago and asked them to go to Shanxi to explore the market, but I haven’t heard back yet..."
Hao Ren was stunned: "Could he be sold to dig coal?"
Hesiana had no time to talk to Hao Ren this time. She glanced at Lily with a strange expression: "Wait...I thought I saw ears popping out of your head just now? What race are you from?"
Lily was forking a large piece of barbecue and stuffing it into her mouth. At this time, she suddenly realized what she was doing. She heard two strange rattling sounds in her throat and choked. Her face turned red from holding back and she danced around asking for help from Hao Ren. Hao Ren quickly stepped forward and patted Lily on the back to help her calm down. Next to them, Nangong Wuyue and Yizhaks also had cold sweats on their faces: It has become a habit for all races to coexist peacefully in a room. They had completely forgotten about the situation where Lily and Vivian were not dealing with each other. Lily, who has a weak brain, is also very powerful. She was so stunned that she didn't think about it even though she was surrounded by more than a hundred vampires!
"I'm going to die... I'm almost going to die... I might actually die later..." Lily swallowed the food in her mouth with a narrow escape and lay on the table gasping for air. Hao Ren felt that this husky should have achieved a level that other orthodox werewolves have not yet achieved. Achievable feats: chatting and laughing surrounded by vampires, fighting for food with vampires, and not being beaten to death so far...
"What's wrong with her?" Hesiana looked at Vivian in shock, "Why did I react so violently to a casual question?"
Lily shrunk her neck and hid behind Hao Ren (this was her instinctive move. In the dog's head, the creature that can give her food every day is the most powerful, even if she is a Tibetan mastiff - not to mention this is just a dog) Husky): "You promise first that you won't eat me on the spot."
Hesiana had a question mark on her head, while Vivian raised her shoulders: "She is a werewolf."
Suddenly the entire hall could hear a needle drop - these vampires have really good ears.
Lily was about to cry. She grabbed Hao Ren's clothes and pointed at the barbecue on the table: "Can I have another bite?"
Vivian sighed: "As you can see, this is all I can achieve..."
Hesiana was instinctively wary of Lily at first, but when she saw Vivian's attitude, the atmosphere among the other guests in front of her, and most importantly, she was stunned for a moment after seeing Lily's actions. , and then waved his arms vigorously around: "Look at what you are looking at! Eat your own food! Did you understand that you didn't hear anything?"
Lily immediately returned to the table happily and continued to eat as if nothing had happened. This scene frightened Hessiana. Vivian sighed: "In a sense, Lily is also quite powerful." Yes, if I were in the same environment, I might not have this mentality."
The meal was enjoyable and lasted for a long time. The vampires' feast could last until dawn - since there was no sun in the city, they decided to continue until everyone was drunk and lying down. The Hesiana table ended a little earlier, basically after Lily ate until she fell asleep. Hao Ren half-tugged and half-supported Lily to push her up from the chair. The latter was still talking about the barbecue in a daze. To be honest, if the biological clock hadn't interfered with it, she would have been able to eat until everyone at the scene really lay down. Hesiana looked at this werewolf girl who could be so calm when surrounded by vampires with sincerity: "This is the first time in my life that I have seen such a werewolf. She has the potential to achieve great things. This kind of calmness is something that not everyone can possess. "
Vivian pinched Lily's tail that was accidentally exposed after she fell asleep: "Calm down. As of yesterday, I was the only vampire she had ever seen in her life. She only watched vampires and werewolves from TV. He came here with no real idea of the feud between the two races."
Hesiana was stunned: "Orphans? Are there any survivors like this out there? Are they from the north?"
Hao Ren nodded: "Yes, she comes from the snowy plains of the north. Her ancestors have long monopolized the snow transportation industry. She still has one-sixteenth of the blood of the Imperial City."
Hesiana was stunned on the spot.
Everyone was arranged to live in this gorgeous big house. There were plenty of empty rooms, and the housekeeper in the big house made a special arrangement after asking everyone's race. Hao Ren was very pleased to find that Hesiana still inherited Vivian's kind side in her bones: although she had a cold attitude towards him, she still carefully arranged a place that looked good, and at least the place to sleep was a bed. Not a coffin...
Hao Ren also asked the housekeeper for an extra-large fish tank. He had to let Doudou out for some air when he went to bed at night. The little guy actually showed up when everyone was eating, but she had never seen so many people before, and she was so frightened that she ran back on the spot, so much so that Hesiana didn't even notice that there was an extra one on the table that was not burned. Cooked fish. Hao Ren decided to wait until it was quiet tomorrow before introducing the fry to Hesiana.
The first bizarre night spent in the vampire house passed like this, and the next day... well, it was still night. There wasn't even a sun in this damn place. It was daytime when I opened my eyes.
As soon as Hao Ren left the house, he saw two vampire maids with blood-red eyes running hurriedly in the corridor. He stopped one of them and asked about it, and heard an unexpected news:
Someone from the Lucas family came, and it was their patriarch who came directly.
