Chapter 507 Blood Tax

This may be the most childish alliance in history. Two people who have only known each other for a day and night started chatting about the great cause of world domination.

"Hua Ling?"

After hearing this name, Bai Mo thought of Hua Qing who followed the Human Federation to the moon, and Huatai Mountain, where there is a tomb in the Huaya Federation Heroes Memorial Cemetery.

However, he found that his memories related to them seemed to be due to the influence of Daohua, as if many years had passed.

Originally, with Bai Mo's thinking ability, it didn't take any effort to remember these things, but now that he thought about it, it took him half a second.

The assimilation force of the world was tirelessly washing his memory over and over again, causing all the parts related to Bai Mo's personality to slowly fade away, leaving only the intellectual part.

"Bai Wusheng?" Looking at Bai Mo who was suddenly stunned, Lu Yuesheng shouted to him a little louder.

"It's okay. You can continue talking about the aristocratic family. I haven't been out of the mountain for a long time and I don't know much about the current situation." Bai Mo also entered his role.

"We are now in the 380th year of the Wei Dynasty. The Wei Dynasty is controlled by four top-class families. Below the four, there are seven middle-class families and sixteen third-class families.

In addition to these, there will be some opposition families from time to time. They have similar power to the families in the court. However, due to conflicts of interest, the Wei Dynasty's Family Council did not include them.

The aristocratic family will fight against the demons and monsters that invade the Wei Dynasty. They are the main force in dealing with these things, but due to the problem of numbers, they can often only solve part of them. "

Although she knew there must be some story behind Bai Mo's stunned look, she still selectively ignored it and continued her words.

"Each aristocratic family has its own special bloodline abilities. Rumor has it that these abilities are bestowed by sacrificing to a thing called 'source seed'..."

"Have you ever seen a real source seed?" When she said this, Bai Mo suddenly asked.

Lu Yuesheng felt even stranger now. She originally thought that the other party had just been in seclusion for too long and wanted to know a little bit about the current situation, but now judging from Bai Mo's series of common sense questions, it seemed that he really was cultivating the entire world. I don’t know much about the system.

"But if he doesn't even know this, how did he get his power?

Muhuo told me clearly this morning that that person was definitely no less than Nan Xuanli who created it... Could it be that there really was an expert who passed all his life's skills to him before he died? "

The more she thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong with Bai Mo, but her protective sword always insisted that he had no ill intentions towards her and could be regarded as a reliable ally. This made her attitude somewhat contradictory.

"The source seed is the top secret of a family, how could I, an outsider, see it!

As for wild source seeds... they will appear randomly in the wild, and every appearance will cause a battle between aristocratic families, because just one source seed is enough to give birth to a new family. "

Lu Yuesheng is quite familiar with things from the aristocratic family.

"Maybe those blood-patterned knives are the sacrifices of a certain origin species?" Bai Mo thought of the black-clothed men from Changle Cult, and his original family died in their hands.

“Every ten years or so, a new source species will be born, followed by another bloody storm.

However, these have little to do with ordinary people. They still care about their livestock and will choose to fight in places far away from human settlements. "When she said this, she also emphasized the word "livestock" through gritted teeth.

"livestock?"

"Sorry, I don't have a problem with you, Wu Sheng." After finishing what she said, she remembered that the guy in front of her should also be a member of the aristocratic family, "It's just that what they did really makes me unbearable... …”

She didn't know why, but she always felt a strange sense of familiarity when looking at Bai Mo, and she often spoke her true thoughts unconsciously.

As a time traveler, she knew very well that such a situation was very dangerous. Her identity and origin had always been her biggest secret, and even the people closest to her had not revealed anything about it.

"It's okay." Bai Mo gestured for her to continue.

"The sacrifices required by the source species are all kinds, but most of them cannot escape the blood sacrifice. Compared with the ferocious-looking human-eating monsters in the wild, the aristocratic family is actually just a group of monsters wearing human skin."

"For example, the Sikong family, which is active in these two counties, has two dogs, the Changle Sect and the Henli Sect, that like to go around killing people and feeding them with blood-marked knives.

It is said that as long as forty-nine blood-patterned knives are sacrificed every ten years, the source seed will maintain the power given to the Sikong family. "

"Aristocratic families impose a 'blood tax' and sacrifice a small number of people in exchange for the survival of others." After listening to the history told by Lu Yuesheng, Bai Mo confirmed his suspicion about the blood-patterned knife.

From the perspective of racial continuation, this approach is understandable.

The ancient human race, which was in turmoil among the evil spirits at first, did rely on these bloodline people to lay the foundation and establish a civilization belonging to the human race.

But as time went by, the blood people who gradually established the aristocratic family class through blood ties believed that they should stand forever, so they worked together to fix this system.

Due to the long-term threats from evil spirits from all directions, ordinary people's dependence on blood people has only increased, making it difficult for them to have much resistance. The 'blood tax' has continued to this day.

However, Miss Lu, whose thoughts are all about the concept of modern civilization, is obviously extremely disgusted with this backward and barbaric thing.

After she learned the truth about the world from Mu Huo's mouth, she gradually came up with the idea of ​​saving the world.

"Hua Ling, what was the gunpowder you mentioned yesterday?" Bai Mo changed the topic and continued acting.

"Something that can change the world."

"Including aristocratic families?"

"Yes." She nodded confidently.

Then Lu Yuesheng waved to the inner courtyard, called a strong man with bright eyes, and whispered a few words in his ear.

After receiving the order from his master, the strong man began to order the private soldiers who were training in the school grounds in an orderly manner.

These people are the core members who are only loyal to the Lu family. They are all orphans who have a blood feud with demons and monsters. After years of brainwashing, as long as they hear that it is a mission to kill demons, they will carry it out without hesitation.

"Hiss, hiss..."

The soundproof tent on the first floor was slowly pulled up, and the two teams began to set up the live ammunition test site.

Dozens of heavy targets were moved to the center of the field, and stacks of uniquely shaped firearms were also transported to the edge of the testing field, waiting for the next test.
