On the sea not far from this territorial waters, a cargo ship was slowly moving into the deeper ends of the water. The ringing of the ship’s whistle was mixed with the sounds of seagulls. The crew members wore a blend of blue and white clothes, walking back and forth on the deck.
“There are a little more goods this time… And, the price has been doubled. Has peak session been brought forwards?”
On the side of the boat, a few of the shipment’s businessmen stood together. They were all old customers who often operate the ships under the same sea transportation group, but this time was different than the rest. The amount of money needed to be paid this time had doubled. And, their attitude this time was intransigent. There was no way they could have bargained. If it wasn’t for the unexplainable loss of cargo ships used for shipment, it would be unlikely that why have been so reluctant to promise a price rise.
“I heard some information saying that a lot of ships nearby has been looking for something lately, like a treasure,” another businessman said in a low voice.
At this moment, a cold color suddenly flashed under one of the few women’s eyes. When she turned around, she did not know when a younger girl with black-shirt appeared.
“Excuse me, my niece is here,” she said with a smile to a few people.
“Let’s go. Let’s talk more inside. The wind here is strong.” Several businessmen smiled back with sincerity.
The businesswoman walked towards her niece’s direction.
“What’s wrong?” Her eyes suddenly turned red. Impressively, she was a Blood Breed hidden into a human.
“Upper level Grina, it seems like a Holy First Palace’s Blood Breed has followed us on board.” The appearance of this girl looked young. But in fact, she was already more than hundred years of age. Her expression looked serious, “I was observing her, but just now, I didn’t think that she would disappear. That’s why I wanted to report this to you immediately.”
Grina was the Castine Family’s Upper-level Blood Breed. Although the Chief did not declare that he wanted to start a war with the Holy Fist Palace, as an Older Generation Blood Breed member, her family approved of the perspective as per the people in the secret party. Holy Fist Palace was the root of causing this chaos. Only by removing Holy Fist Palace and the behind-the-scenes manipulator, Garen, can they restore the order of the world.
“This time, we’ve joined five other Upper levels. More than half of the Blood Union’s combat Upper levels are here. We are all gathered here from all over the world, and these are the top elites of the Blood Breed. Even if we lost our enemy, what is there to fear?” Grina frowned as she said.
“I have a feeling that something is not right,” the young girl said worriedly. “I have a feeling that this Blood Breed has been following us from the start, and we’ve only noticed her now.”
“You say it’s her? That female Blood Breed?” Grina asked in return. “Which level?” U.p.dated by Box n o v e l. com
“Should be Lower level…”
“Why are you scared of a mere Lower level person?” Grina was frustrated. Looking at that complaint female Blood Breed, she did not fight it in her heart.
“But… But I have a feeling that there is something fishy about that female Blood Breed!” The young girl argued.
“Alright, I’ll go take a look at it personally, and I’ll catch this bastard.” Grina said plainly, “Bring some men to patrol the area. It’s just a fish that escaped the net.”
“Well… Alright,” the young girl could only nod her head.
After her subordinate left, she started wandering around alone on the cargo ship. It looked like she was taking a stroll, but in reality, her senses had been magnified. She was constantly paying attention to her surrounding situations.
The cargo ship was huge. Ninety out of a hundred person were container cargos that each divided into a dark storage warehouse.
Bang!
She slowly pushed open a metal warehouse door. Some of the darker spaces inside suddenly appeared before her eyes.
Grina walked in confidently. She had casually walked around and inspected several warehouses. This was now the fifth area.
The worker who opened the door gave it a pat.
“You can take a look yourself. When you need to lock the door, just give me a shout.”
“Great, thank you.” Grina smiled as she slipped him some cash. At once, the worker beamed with delight and walked away.
Walking into the warehouse area, Grina looked left and right. There was no one in here, but she did not relax. This warehouse area was the most important place because the core items this time were hidden in this huge warehouse area.
Hence, Grina looked unusually serious.
“Is there something wrong here?”
“Nothing is wrong. My main items are all there. I won’t be able to relax if I don’t take a look first.” Grina was aware of her reply. Though it did not feel right, and so, she turned around. She saw a girl dressed in black windbreaker was slowly closing the warehouse’s door. One click, and it was locked.
The person’s eyes glowed red. In fact, she was also one of the Blood Breeds on the ship. It was just that Grina could not remember such person on her team.
“Which group are you from? Didn’t you guys go to the Eastern District?” Grina said with some dissatisfaction.
The female Blood Breed suddenly revealed a strange smile. That smile was just like a human, as if there was no self-consciousness – a smile in which she was not aware of.
“Grina, long time no see. You don’t even recognize me now…”
She slowly said, with a light, yet lazy tone.
Hearing this familiar tone, Grina’s heart suddenly jumped. In a second, her expression turned dignified. Her eyes were staring at the female Blood Breed opposite of her. She is merely just a Lower level Blood Breed, she should not have been able to resist the suppression of her Upper-level position.
However, this person completely ignored this suppression, and slowly walked towards her.
********************
Holy Fist Palace.
Tu Lan’s naked body was lying in a boiling hot blood pool. The blood-red pool water gave out a strong smell. For the Blood Breeds, this was the highest quality of enjoyment. But she could not feel a single thing. Instead, she slightly frowned as more than half her body was soaked in blood.
If anyone could go into this secret room and saw her current face, they could see it from her lifeless eyes that she had lost all consciousness.
Hiss…
The room’s stone door was slowly pushed open. Garen’s shadow appeared by the side of the blood pool, and he used his backhand to shut the stone door.
As he looked at Tu Lan who was in the blood pool, he gave a slight frown. He then walked to the side and pressed some buttons. Suddenly, the boiling of the blood pool became much smaller. It also revealed Tu Lan’s naked upper body.
There was no trace of lust in Garen’s eyes. He only walked to the back of Tu Lan. While he stood there, he looked down.
The view from his angle was great. On the back of Tu Lan’s vest, a white-raised spike by the side of the pool had deeply penetrated her skin.
“This such a wonderful ability…” Garen sighed.
“Using the bloodline would create the ability to space jump. The Death Apostles in this world also have a powerful side.” Black Sethe also sighed, “We just don’t know how long Tu Lan would need over there. First, suicide; then, use her own Blood Breed’s bloodline to resuscitate her body. Thanks to you, for figuring something like that out. I don’t know how long the Death Apostles of the Blood Breed take to train their bodies. But once they give up, it will be a huge loss. Have you thought about how you’re going to repay her?”
Garen shook his head slightly.
“She, herself has died. If her body dies here, Blood Nuclear will have fragmentation. Originally, she should have turned into black ashes immediately because the Blood Nucleus isn’t providing the blood essence. But since she’s using the Blood Breed’s blood pool, it can keep her body activated and maintain its original shape.”
“But if there isn’t any Blood Nucleus, and instead, we use other Blood Breed’s blood essence to sustain her, won’t this body lose Tu Lan’s bloodline? Then what use will she have? I think this blood essence would only sustain this body for another two hours only,” Black Sethe couldn’t solve it.
“We also did think of this,” Garen took out a thick blood that emitted a crystal-red color. It looked just like human blood, or if not, the same. Garen gently and carefully held it in his hands, as if resisting from breaking it.
“This is the blood essence that Tu Lan left with me before. No matter how the situations go, whether win or lose, I will inject this into her body in the last phase of the two hours. Then, I will welcome her back on her return.”
“You bunch of Death Apostles are using the Resuscitation Ability at its ultimate level,” Black Sethe exclaimed.
Garen gave a slight smile.
If this technology couldn’t be studied, then won’t that be a waste of his experience on high-precision technology in the Totem world, as well as his own transplanted heart? Anyhow, he was once the top biologist and biochemist.
Furthermore, he would not worry about the reproduction of Blood Breeds with this method because these blood essences were obtained from the Older Generation Blood Breeds, who were captured in the previous war and drained alive. With such a small pool of blood, he had killed hundreds of Lower level Blood Breeds. Yet with this sacrifice, this would only sustain a Death Apostle’s body for two hours. Even in the two hours, if she faces a life-threatening situation in the middle of it, her body would be ruined. After thousands of years of refining this body, it would be destroyed, once and for all. This was also one of the first reasons of Death Apostle Wellington’s hatred towards Garen. He had taken many years to refine his body, and just because he wasn’t careful, it was destroyed by Garen. Hence, he seemed so weak from the back.
Regarding this method, even if the Older Generation Blood Breed’s Death Apostles had studied this method, they could not use it nor, would they dare to use it. The number of Blood Breeds would be decreasing as the war went on. No matter if it’s the Leader of Blood Breed, they would still need their men to get their hands on the resources and forces for them to provide themselves the information and resources. Else, even if the Death Apostles are stronger, when they are against human’s top weapon, they would be destroyed once the attack is focused on them. Then, they would resuscitate. Another point would be that this questions one’s moral belief. Just as in the human world, some people would bathe in human blood, and hence kill hundreds of people. However, once they were exposed, then these people would immediately be treated as the public’s enemy. It would be the same with the Blood Breed, especially when Castine, the soft-hearted, and peace-loving First Leader would be around.
More so, the most important point would be that there weren’t any other Death Apostles who would entrust their body to someone else. And even so, only Holy Fist Palace could do it. Tu Lan was originally convinced by Garen. At first, she was almost killed by Garen. But after always being under his despotic power, and since she had never enjoyed the power and authority of a Death Apostle, she simply treated herself as a subordinate of the Holy Fist Palace who was just slightly above the Upper levels.
Anyway, if Garen wanted to kill her, he would have already done so. He would not have left it till now. Even she did not think about it when she had figured it out, which fit in quite well with Garen’s experiment.
“Too bad this method can only be used once, before the alternative of the Blood Breed’s blood essence is found,” Garen felt slightly sorry. If he could master this method, then he could use Tu Lan’s ability as a Death Apostle and spread her Blood Breed’s bloodline to every part of the world. If anything happens, she could instantly provide support.
“How are there so many good things in this world, and how is it that only you get the benefit of it all?” Black Sethe smiled.
“That’s true too,” Garen smiled. He just kneeled on his knees. From his arms, he took out a small white alarm clock and put it down on the floor, as it quietly guards Tu Lan’s body.
