The light rain stopped and continued. Howard felt that he was not suitable for pouring rain because of his old bones, so he used magic to disperse the water vapor in the sky and create a dry place so that the four of them could sit down and talk.
"Alfried was once one of the seven masters among us. He pursues extreme freedom. He believes that human beings should not be subject to all constraints, and no one can try to control everything. Because his beliefs are in line with Asa
Xin inherited the belief, so he got some support."
"My behavior did deviate from Assassin in a sense, so I didn't do much to stop him. After he left Assassin, he merged with an organization called Epidemic Doctors. In order to prevent the emergence of
If something happens, I will put some people in place."
Leviathan explained the reason for this.
Kaito glanced at a bunch of unconscious people not far away with some speechlessness. Some of them were probably betrayed by Assassin. Most of them were ordered by Leviathan. When he thought about it, he really felt pity for that person.
Alfred got it.
"Epidemic Doctor, why did Alfred join them?"
Tony was a little confused and said, although he knew about Alfred's defection before, in his opinion, Alfred should establish his own organization. Why should he join an epidemic doctor organization?
"The Plague Doctors are an organization that spread during the Black Death. The source was a group of exorcists who targeted the Vampires. Although the Black Death had human causes, it was driven by the Vampires. In the past, the Vampires
They were extremely powerful, so they tried to sacrifice humans to make themselves a perfect race. Several truly ancient vampires, princes and vampires close to the level of true ancestors, worked together to recreate the rotten bracelet among the Thirteen Sacred Artifacts, this plague of all things.
source of."
"The Rot Bracelet is the source of countless major plagues. Almost all major plagues are related to the Rot Bracelet. With the Rot Bracelet, the Vampire Clan has gained the favor of hell. It is because of the Rot Bracelet that the Vampire Clan has truly lost its human guardian.
Its status is targeted by all human organizations."
"The outbreak of the Black Death caused the source organization of the plague doctors to expand crazily. They introduced all the power in the hope of fighting against the vampires. Gradually, they became the old enemies of the vampires because they were still doing the work of treating diseases, hoping to reduce the number of vampires.
The emergence of this has led many mortals to imitate their costumes.”
Listening to Leviathan's words, Tony frowned and said, "Wait, by that time, the final battle should have happened, right?"
"Yes, but the rotten bracelet was reshaped at another point in time. At that time, the vampire's plan was blocked by various forces in the mysterious world at that time. During the Black Death, all remaining mystics were trapped in
Weak, the same goes for the Vampires, but they can gain some abilities with blood. In order to make the Vampires stronger again, some Vampires who did not choose to sleep used the Rot Bracelet to release the plague."
"As for the Epidemic Doctor Organization, this organization was not too powerful in the first place. With the help of an extremely mysterious leader at the time, they gradually became stronger. In an era when the mystery had weakened and there was no source of growth, they chose to draw on the power of the vampires.
Come strong."
Kaito muttered, "That sounds crazy..."
"Yes, it's crazy. In the end, it's hard for us to even tell how many of them are not vampires."
Tony commented: "Did you kill the dragon and become a dragon? It's really ironic."
Howard said at this time: "The Epidemic Doctors have now become a very covert intelligence organization, but I still know a little bit about it. It seems that some of them have been integrated into the current Israeli secret agency Mossad. Not only that, but other countries around the world
Similar organizations also have their presence."
"Prophecy, it's really convenient. I think it's almost omnipotent. It's just cheating in the game."
Kaito sighed.
Howard shook his head and said: Prophecy can only be used as a sophisticated intelligence method. It is impossible to use it to predict the future or to feel that you can control the entire situation."
"It sounds like this organization is quite good, except for those who may appear among them." Tony said with some confusion, "But why do you feel so guarded against him? And why do they want to deal with Kaito?"
Leviathan did not answer, so Howard said: "Because among the epidemic doctors, there are ancient ones, and they are in charge."
"This isn't...wait, Ancient One? Are there many?"
"A lot, almost as many as vampires."
Looking at Howard's helpless eyes, Tony and Kaito understood.
The same number... In this case, the team of epidemic doctors needs to be considered. How many degenerates are there among them?
The good and evil of this organization cannot be judged at all.
"That Alfred's betrayal must not be simple, right?"
Kaito said suddenly.
Leviathan avoided answering and just said: "Anything is possible."
"Maybe we should talk about Dracula."
…
"Perhaps, we should discuss Dracula, Your Excellency Doctor."
Grand Duke Sir was in his room, looking at the person who appeared in the magic projection of the crystal ball. Perhaps there was something wrong with the person. He was wearing a black robe, a black fedora hat, and a bird's beak mask.
His entire face was covered. He had no arms, replaced by two black wings extending outward.
His image is just like that of a member of the Epidemic Doctors, but it is difficult to say that he is human.
But Grand Duke Sir did not express any hostility, because he is the current leader of the epidemic doctor organization, the epidemic doctor of this generation.
Ordinary members of the epidemic doctor have code names, and only the leader is called the epidemic doctor.
Looking at the elegant old gentleman in front of him, the epidemic doctor said: "We don't know much about Dracula, but one thing is certain, that is, he is not in the Tomb of Cain, but exists somewhere in the world.
one place."
"Of course I know this. Not long ago, I personally killed one of Dracula's first supporters."
Grand Duke Xier frowned.
That's not what he wanted to know.
The epidemic doctor was silent for a moment and said: "Mr. Grand Duke, I have some knowledge of your power, and I can understand your urgency. But we told you during the transaction that Dracula may not be found."
At the beginning, the person who told Archduke Syl that the vampires in New York had easily obtained vampire sacred weapons was the messenger of the plague doctor.
Since then, Archduke Cyr has reached some cooperation with epidemic medical organizations.
And finding Dracula was one of their collaborations.
