The tall and majestic Westminster Abbey looks even more magnificent in the dusk, but the long shadow left by the gaze is like a sword piercing the earth, looking particularly sharp and ferocious.
This place is no longer a sacred place, but has become a base for evil vampires to invade London. The majestic and holy pillars are covered with blood and stains. When the leather shoes step on the long carpet, there is a trace of blood on the sides.
filthy.
Cain frowned slightly, waved his hand, and the breeze caused by the energy rippled through the carpet, making the dirt on it disappear in an instant, but his expression did not ease, and his frown deepened.
But he still walked along the carpet to the end, where there was a private prayer room for receiving distinguished guests. When Cain stood at the door and looked through the observation window, a young man with black hair was leaning on a chair and sleeping.
Perfectly ripe.
Cain's expression finally softened. He opened the door and walked in. The young man trembled like a frightened lamb, but soon pretended to be calm, put his hands in his fists, coughed twice, and raised his head.
He looked at Cain and said, "Why don't you knock on the door?"
"I just came to check on your condition." Cain stood by the door, adjusting the cufflinks on his wrists and said.
"I'm fine."
"So, you are ready for the first embrace ceremony."
"Do we need to prepare for this? Wait a minute, you haven't told me what this ceremony is about..." Bruce showed a blank expression.
But Cain sneered and said: "You don't think you can transform into my descendant by just reciting a few spells, do you? The first embrace ceremony is also cruel among all the rituals in the magic world, and if you want to get
With my strength, this process is destined to be very long."
"So what exactly is that?"
Cain began to pace at the door of the room. He didn't know where he had the patience to explain this to a human. Perhaps it was because the Scarlet Queen Mary repeated the plan that she had repeated thousands of times in his ears over and over again.
And constantly emphasize its importance, so that he feels that it is not tire of it.
"First, I will drain your blood." Cain stared coldly at Bruce with his red vertical pupils. After seeing the fear flashing through the young man's eyes and then being forcibly suppressed, he nodded with satisfaction.
.
If you understand fear, you can tame it. Being able to suppress fear means you are greedy enough. This is the best lamb.
"The moment you die from losing your blood, I will feed you my blood and it will replace all the blood in your body."
"This process usually takes seven to ten days. You will lie in the coffin I prepared for you and feel how my blood flows through your heart and your soul."
"During this process, you will feel the power of blood, and at the same time you will respond to my bloodline, and thus become my most devout believer. You will not hide anything from me. The stronger the blood, the more pious the descendants will be.
"
"Uh, so what preparations should I make?" Bruce couldn't help but ask.
"You don't need to do anything, just stay healthy." Cain was very satisfied with his reaction. Just when he was about to continue saying something, a high-pitched call suddenly came from outside the door.
"The great ancestor, the head of the Vanzhuo clan is here to visit. Your Majesty Mary, please come over immediately..."
I don't know whether it was because of the first half of the sentence or the second half of the sentence, Cain frowned fiercely again, but he didn't show it and turned around to leave.
After Cain left, Beelzebub's voice rang in Bruce's mind and said: "What to do now? He is about to perform a first embrace ceremony on you. I have reminded you before that this ceremony is very powerful.
, there is almost no possibility of reversal.”
"I heard that Cain's status is not particularly high, but he is very ancient?"
Beelzebub sent a positive sentiment and said: "He is the son of Adam and Eve, how can he not be ancient?"
“I read in a book recording the history of theology that when he was expelled from the Garden of Eden and descended into the Red Sea, Adam’s sister and wife Lilith once gave him a drop of her blood. Is this true?
"
"That's true, so why do you ask?"
"In other words, he has the blood of Adam and the blood of Lilith. He is actually closer to God than Abel?"
"Abel was already dead when he obtained Lilith's blood, but according to the bloodline theory, this is indeed the case." Beelzebub took the time to say, as if he rarely had time to chat, "He is more like
He is the son of Adam and Lilith, and is the closest person to him besides the existence created by God himself."
"Aren't you going to run away now?" Beelzebub said in a tone that was full of hatred for steel. "Cain's blood is noble, so his blood has more powerful power, and the first embracing ceremony he performed is also more powerful.
When the ceremony is completed, I'm afraid you will really obey his words."
"But the ceremony cannot be completed."
"If you have any plans, you'd better start now. All vampire fangs have poison. Once they penetrate your body, you will be unable to move immediately, and I can't save you."
"Let's not talk about it for now, but I do have to go out now."
After speaking, Bruce picked the door lock, walked along the corridor of the prayer room into the empty chapel, and flexibly followed the patterns on the exterior wall of the Gothic church to the roof.
Under the cover of the night, Bruce circled around the entire cathedral with the agility of Batman, and then locked on a target, which was a young vampire walking out in an upright manner.
He had just had a conflict with his companions. The prey they brought back was not enough for three vampires. During the quarrel, the fragile prey was killed. When Bruce arrived, the other two vampires were uniting to try to kill him.
Get rid of this unfortunate guy and stop him from sharing the meager food.
The Scarlet Queen Mary has ordered not to intrude too much on ordinary people's society, so there is not enough food now. These vampires whose bloodline is not pure enough need to eat a lot to maintain their strength. Once they are hungry, their appetite and bloodthirsty are hundreds of times stronger than humans.
Their desires will make them lose their minds.
Bruce knew this, so he gently fell down from the high balcony, and landed just in front of this vampire. The young vampire was so dizzy with hunger that he didn't even care to see who Bruce was, and turned towards him.
Pounced over.
His speed was very fast, but Bruce was not slow either, and he had already figured out the terrain here while wandering around on the roof, so he ran all the way and brought the hungry vampire back to the door of the prayer room.
He closed the door and deliberately held on to the door lock. The young vampire, who was already hungry and anxious, scratched the door lock with his claws. The metal latch fell off with a click, and the door panel was also scratched to pieces.
"Ahhhhhhhhhh!!!"
The young man's screams echoed in the cathedral. A few minutes later, Bruce, who had a long scar on his chest, was lying on the chair in the prayer room with a pale face. Cain, who looked extremely cold, stared at him with murderous eyes.
Lying on the ground is Mary, the Scarlet Queen.
"Who allowed you to harm my prey?!" The anger in Cain's tone could no longer be hidden, and Mary said in a horrified tone: "I'm sorry, Your Majesty, I didn't take good care of my descendants. They are still young and don't understand.
I really don’t know the rules…”
This did not dampen Cain's anger at all. He stretched out a hand, and the invisible force lifted Mary into the air. His big hand tightened, and Mary's eyeballs immediately became protruding, and her neck was about to be strangled.
Immediately afterwards, countless blood flew out from her mouth, nose and eyes and fell into Cain's hands. When Mary fell to the ground, she gasped for air as if on the verge of death, and was so weak that she could not even stand up.
Cain deprived her of 80% of her power, making her no different from those low-blooded vampires. In the end, he just looked at her coldly and said: "Do you really think you are that much to me?"
Is it important? I am the ancestor of all vampires. After I return, both the Tantric Sect and the Demonic Sect will unite as one, and your stupid plans will only slow me down."
"Get out!" Cain turned around and said without mercy.
The door of the prayer room closed with a "bang", Cain raised his hand, and an essence of power surged into Bruce's body, and the wounds on his body healed in an instant.
"I didn't let him bite my neck because I thought you might be unhappy." Bruce lowered his head and said, "But that was really terrible. Will it hurt so much when you bite me?"
Cain's hand paused obviously. He didn't expect Bruce to say that at all, but he still shook his head and said, "No, no, you won't feel anything."
"Then I have to lie in that damn coffin for seven days, without being able to see you for seven days?"
Cain paused again. When Bruce's blue eyes looked at him, he instinctively didn't want to say the answer that was already on his lips.
So the answer took a detour and became a more euphemistic statement: "The longer you lie down, the more strength you gain."
"But I don't need that much power."
The implication of this sentence was obvious. Cain looked into Bruce's eyes and didn't know how to answer for a moment.
"The sooner you start, the sooner you can finish." Cain could only say this, but Bruce still stared at him blankly, so he had to add: "You can also see me sooner."
"I said, what are you doing?!" Beelzebub almost screamed: "I know that you humans are not taboo about meat and vegetables, but you are not even Cain...are you?!"
Bruce ignored Beelzebub at all. He just kept staring at Cain's eyes. After a long time, a trace of vulnerability appeared on his face, and the look from those ice-like blue eyes seemed to suddenly melt.
.
"Right now." Bruce stood up, walked to the opposite side of Cain, very close to him, and looked directly into his eyes and said: "Give me the power to protect myself, and don't let such a terrible thing happen to me again.
On the body."
Cain looked at the panic in his eyes, but he was not as proud as before, but instead had a kind of anger and almost undetectable sadness that he couldn't even detect.
The next second, Cain directly hugged Bruce's upper body, grabbed the back of his head with his hands and turned his head to one side, and pressed his fangs directly against his neck.
"Pfft."
The sharp fangs pierced the blood vessels, and the extremely sweet blood flowed into Cain's mouth, but what followed was not the powerful force he imagined, but a terrifying and almost irresistible force rooted in the bottom of the world.
crazy.
Cain's eyes slowly widened, he was breathing rapidly, his heart had never beat so violently, and he struggled desperately as if he was entangled in something.
The moment the fangs were pulled out, behind the flying blood drops was Bruce's expression that suddenly turned cold.
Cain, who had pulled out his fangs, quickly retreated, grabbed his neck tightly and retreated weakly, constantly suppressing the expression on his face. The power in his body continued to surge, but it was completely unable to relieve his pain.
, like drinking poison with no solution.
Short huffing sounds kept coming from his throat, as if something was about to be squeezed out of his throat.
Suddenly, he stopped still, then lowered his head, standing there like a statue. After a while, his shoulders began to huff.
When the low, subtle and almost imperceptible laughter echoed in the cathedral, Bruce, whose neck and shoulders were covered in blood, looked at him calmly and said.
"The ones I hate, the ones I love, the ones I hurt, the ones who hurt me, the ones who fight with me, drink my blood, the ones who want to harm me, the ones who want to save me, in the end there will only be one - the clown."
Beelzebub was completely stunned by the crazy scene in front of him. He roared in Bruce's mind: "Satan! What did you do to Cain?!"
Then he asked in a slightly broken tone: "Batman! What are you doing?! Why are you doing this???"
