Chapter 749: Chapter 383: Have you heard of the Ghost Captain_1

"After counting the votes, it is ultimately decided that these three drops of Ancestor’s Blood shall be gifted to the Vagro Family to honor their contribution to our Clan over the millennia."

Under the envious eyes of other Blood Clans, Brandt handed over the three vials of Ancestor’s Blood to the representative of the Vagro Family.

The leader of the Vagro Family carefully took the vials of blood, avoiding the gazes of other Clan Leaders. He quickly put them away, forcing down his joy and maintaining his composure with great effort.

"Now for the second group of three drops." Brandt again divided three vials of Ancestor’s Blood.

"The reason to summon everyone to Dark City, as everyone must have sensed, is that Dark City’s environment has significantly changed compared to a thousand years ago. The ’seclusion’ doctrine set by our ancestors was not meaningless. Unfortunately, the younger generation of vampires often fail to understand its meaning, hunting humans excessively, causing us to be seen as a thorn in the side of the Human Race. This led to the creation of institutions such as the Church and Demon Hunting Association, specifically targeting us. There are also natural enemies like the Werewolf. The Werewolf’s power has become increasingly prominent in recent years while our population continues to decline. I am very concerned about the future of our Clan," The aged Brandt sighed as he began his speech.

"Especially one year ago, a Wolf King emerged in Dark City, which further strengthened the Werewolf’s power. I understand everyone’s hatred toward the Wolf Clan, but to confront them head-on is not a wise move. Therefore, for the survival of our Clan, after discussing with the seven Marquis, we have decided: our entire Clan will migrate, all vampires in Dark City will collectively move to a new, safer gathering place!"

Brandt announced this startling decision and pointed to the three drops of Ancestor’s Blood: "These three drops will serve as a reward for finding the new gathering place. Whoever can find the most suitable gathering place will receive these three vials of blood."

Mu You finds the contents of the text bizarre. He had been prepared to help the vampires fight the Werewolves, but the vampires seem to have given up first?

Of course, putting aside issues of hatred and face, from a rational sense, it seems like a wise decision. The werewolves are a lot, the balance of power has been broken, and now confronting the Wolf Clan directly, the vampires are sure not to fare well.

However, if it’s about a suitable gathering place for vampires, he does know a perfect place: Sky City!

Sky City is filled with Fools, who have no conflicts of interest with the vampires. Also, there are no churches, Demon Hunters and the likes in Sky City so as long as they abide by the rules, they can enjoy a long period of peaceful life in Sky City.

Of course, this is under the condition that they are willing to become vassals, because in some sense, it is also a choice of being under someone else’s roof, and if they were to fall out with the Fools one day, they could be kicked out of Sky City at any moment.

The game text continues.

After announcing the migration, Brandt took three drops of Ancestor’s Blood again: "These three drops of Ancestor’s Blood, according to the Ancestor’s will, will be distributed to the three Viscount families that have made the most significant contribution to the Clan over the past millennia. The rule remains the same, the Clan Leader will vote."

... After some voting and announcing of votes, the three drops of Ancestor’s blood were respectively given to The Hoover Clan, Julian Clan, and Sam Clan.

"The next drop of Ancestor’s Blood will be used to solve the ’Wolf Poison’ issue." Brandt took the last vial of Ancestor’s Blood and announced its allocation: "Recently, in the Wolf clan, a poison specifically targeting vampires has appeared. Vampires bitten by the Wolf cannot heal their wounds or revive. This has directly caused our clan to frequently be beaten in the fight against the Wolf Clan. Currently, hundreds of our clan members have been injured by the wolves and are suffering from the Wolf Poison."

"Therefore, this last drop of Ancestor’s Blood has no noble rank restrictions. Whichever family can help solve the Wolf poison problem will receive this vial of blood."

After announcing the allocation methods for all the Ancestor’s Blood, May immediately turned to you, to discuss quietly how to tackle the Wolf Poison problem.

It indeed seems that obtaining these drops of blood is tough, among the remaining four out of ten drops, the one with the best shot seemed to be the ’Wolf Poison’.

One drop of Ancestor’s Blood might be of little use to the Ryan Family, but if they can get it, with the approval of the Duke, they can on-sell it to other Viscount families in exchange for crucial resources such as the Evolution Elixir. According to past trade experiences, one drop of Ancestor’s Blood could easily fetch over fifty vials of Evolution Elixir, allowing the Clan to have at least two epic-level powerhouses, a significant strength upgrade once again!

Mu You found the text slightly amusing. May’s idea was not wrong; one drop of Ancestor’s Blood for two epic-level powerhouses is indeed not a loss in terms of short-term strength upgrade.

However, trading like this would be wasteful.

As precious as the Evolution Elixir is, it is mass-produced. Over time it can always be obtained. But the Ancestor’s Blood is truly unique; the entire Star Spirit World produces only one drop hundred years apart— the value of the two could not be more different.

Moreover, Mu You has plenty of Evolution Elixirs, that’s the one thing he doesn’t lack at all.
