The bat system dared not stay there any longer. While transmitting images and reporting the situation to Yu Ling through the system panel, it continued to fly back along the original route.

[Host, these vampires, despite their mutual repulsion, cooperate seamlessly as a team, seemingly driven by a strange force. This force seems similar to the abilities of priests like Rubis. Could they also be man-made?!]

A pastor? And he's connected to the Vatican again...

Yu Ling was slightly taken aback. No wonder these vampires looked a bit strange; they were incredibly ugly compared to the average appearance of vampires.

This world is such a mess!

The bat system sighed and said:

[Whether it's Rubis, these artificial vampires, or the original owner's vampire faction's power structure, none of it fits well with this romance-themed mission world. We need to quickly figure out the origins of these things.]

"Yes, you should also be careful to stay hidden, so as not to attract the attention of the Blood Hunters and the Holy See."

Where is the host going next?

"Fly to the most bustling place."

After Yu Ling finished speaking, the bat system accelerated forward again...

In a distant human city, inside a luxurious building, a handsome young man stands before a floor-to-ceiling window, a glass of champagne in his hand, gazing at the distant night view.

Where he couldn't see, a small bat fell from the top floor and hung upside down on the bottom edge of the glass window frame.

"Sir, here is today's drink."

A knock came at the door, and the white-haired old butler approached, carrying a goblet filled with bright red liquid.

The young man reluctantly put down the champagne, instead taking the wine glass from the butler and drinking it down in one gulp without even tasting it. He raised an eyebrow and said, "How come this damned vampire is still alive? Supporting so many people, aren't you afraid of draining him dry?"

Suddenly, his gaze froze, and he turned to stare at the butler, his voice icy: "Whose blood is this?"

“My lord, Earl Alvin is currently in hibernation, and today we only have what is stored in the dungeon.”

"Hibernation?" The young man frowned. "Is he injured?"

"No, but for some reason, his essence and blood disappeared completely within a few days," the butler said.

"So... he fell into hibernation because his essence and blood were depleted?"

“Yes, sir.” The butler nodded, then asked, “Should we forcibly wake him?”

The use of the word "he" is quite clever, indicating that the butler doesn't care about Alvin's power at all, his tone is disrespectful, and the address of the count is only out of politeness.

The young man pondered for a moment, then waved his hand and said, "No need, let him rest... You may leave now!"

Upon hearing this, the steward respectfully replied, "Yes," and bowed before retreating.

The room quieted down. The young man raised a hand to rub his temples, hesitated for a moment, then picked up his champagne and scoffed, "What's so great about immortality? That vampire count was a complete waste, only good for being used as a source of sustenance. What a disgrace."

After a moment, he muttered to himself, "So be it. With him dead, I can inherit the earldom..."

After saying this, he brought the wine glass to his lips again, but then stopped, as if he had suddenly thought of something. His eyes changed slightly, and he realized something. He reached out and grabbed the eavesdropping member, pulling him into the room.

"Being able to transform into a bat means you must be a purebred vampire, right? I know you can understand, so don't play dumb. Transform and show me." As the young man spoke, a mist-like energy condensed in his hand.

Bat System:......

[Host, help me!!!]

Yu Ling was watching the live broadcast on the system panel when the perspective suddenly changed, and the young man's short, golden hair was flowing in the sunlight, and his charming and handsome face was pressed against the screen.

"Wait," Yu Ling replied domineeringly, though in her heart she thought: Let go of that system and let me handle it!

With her bare hands, she drew talismans, creating streaks of blood in front of her. Yu Ling's thin lips parted slightly: "Exchange!"

The bat system bearing Yu Ling's mark instantly swapped places with Yu Ling and returned to the large bed in the castle.

Yu Ling, however, appeared before the young man in the original owner's normal form. Her cultivation techniques were completely unremarkable, making it seem at first glance that Yu Ling was actually transformed from the system.

Her long, slightly wavy, wine-red hair cascaded down her back like a waterfall, and her beautiful, delicate features were stunning. The gorgeous red and black dress accentuated her alluring figure, and her long, fair legs were crossed. Yu Ling's steps were light and graceful, and at that moment, a silent temptation quietly blossomed.

"I've seen it, so what?" Yu Ling smiled elegantly and seductively.

These words stirred the young man's heart, and his eyes momentarily became hazy. This allure was not just about appearance, but also about a captivating charm that was hard to resist, much like a fine, aged wine that one could not resist.

His throat bobbed twice, and he thought that if she was willing to follow him, he would surely give her the glory and wealth she desired...

"Miss, are you like Alvin?" He looked at Yu Ling with burning eyes, but his noble manners kept him calm.

"What are you talking about? Who is Alvin? I snuck out of the vampire clan." Yu Ling said with a smirk, "Could you explain it to me in detail, sir?"

A strange light flashed in the young man's eyes:

"If that's the case, then you've truly found a valuable asset... I mean, thank goodness you ran into me. Listen, Alvin is no good, I swear! He's a traitor to your people, and it seems even his name has been forgotten... Ha! How laughable."

"Oh! Damn it, I completely forgot to introduce myself! My name is Karena, it's a pleasure to meet you, beautiful vampire lady." The young man gave a formal bow with his hand on his chest.

"Though it may seem abrupt, if you are willing to follow me, I can grant you the most prestigious position. You will never have to worry about being bullied, not even by Earl Alvin."

Yu Ling scoffed: "So, you hold a rather unusual position in the human world?"

Karenna said, "Yes, I'm a very honest person and I never like to boast. Would you like to consider it?"

"You're right, I really need to think about it carefully."

Yu Ling seemed to be persuaded, and her tone suddenly became calm. She went around behind Karenna, put her head on his shoulder, and brought her lips slightly close. Karenna also looked up and cooperated without refusing.

The sharp teeth piercing the skin had a different taste than Eric's, and the blood inside the body still retained a certain level of activity.

After taking a small sip, Yu Ling pricked her fingertip, and a powerful surge of royal blood, accompanied by a rich rose fragrance, filled the air. She placed her index finger near Karenna's lips, gesturing for him to swallow.

The crimson blood was drawn into his throat along with the warm breath.

"As expected, humans know nothing... Do they know what this means?" Feeling the dampness on her fingertips, Yu Ling's words were filled with the joy of her plan succeeding.

"Hmm... Ha~ What does it mean?" The king's blood is not so easy to taste. Karena was in a daze, as if she were drunk, immersed in the pleasure of the food she had just eaten.
