At the same time, online channels, television channels, and even billboards hanging on the streets across China all showed a young, handsome, and charming face.
This handsome young man, dressed in an extremely luxurious white suit and a black bow tie around his slender neck, nodded gracefully to everyone. His skin was as white as mutton-fat jade, his lips were blood-red, and his dark eyes stared directly at the camera, and at everyone.
When everyone looked at him, he curled the corners of his lips and revealed an extremely gorgeous smile.
At that moment, everyone subconsciously believed that he was a pure-blooded aristocratic vampire, because only aristocratic vampires possessed such a fatal attraction.
However, everyone was wrong.
The young man lazily sat on a black velvet sofa, propping up his forehead and speaking slowly but forcefully, "Hello everyone, I'm Zhuang Li, a human."
"What, he is a human?" The stunned humans asked each other.
"What, he is a human? Then how can he use the Internet and TV channels? Where does his permission come from? Go check it out!" This was the exclamation of the vampires.
Zhuang Li held his forehead with one hand and gently patted the black velvet cloth with the other. He said casually, "I hereby declare that I am responsible for the deaths of 3,429 vampires in Prince Okar's Palace and the entire Heinrich Street District."
As soon as he finished speaking, the crowd standing on the street, watching the live broadcast through the huge billboards, became excited.
People sitting at home or in the office also exclaimed.
All 3,429 vampires were killed by a young man? How is that possible? That was Heinrich Street, the gathering place of the purest noble vampires. They possessed immortal bodies, so how could they be killed by humans?
All the passersby covered their mouths to prevent themselves from screaming, shaking their heads as if in denial, yet a strange hope and irrepressible ecstasy rose in their hearts.
Is this true? Is this true? There are heroes like Prometheus among humans!
X stared at the worn-out TV in amazement.
Emile's rocking chair stopped moving.
Jindou was wiping his hands and the gun almost went off.
Bird's Beak, who was talking to X, also seemed to be watching TV.
He said in extreme astonishment: "I know him! I've met him! I just sent his parents away! Do you know the Zhuang Group that was previously destroyed by Okar's mistress? He is the young master of the Zhuang Group!"
At the same time, Zhuang Li put his hands together to form a spire, gently touched his chin, and said with a smile, "I wonder if you are interested in listening to my story. I once had a happy family. My father, mother, sister, and I lived together in harmony.
“But one day, my sister was tricked by her friends into going to a party in Okar. The next morning, her body was brought back, covered with teeth marks, leaving her body completely battered.
"Her blood was sucked away by a group of greedy demons, leaving not a drop. She died at the age of seventeen, on the eve of the flowers blooming, in extreme fear and despair. And the man who betrayed her, by sacrificing twenty lives, received Okar's First Embrace."
Zhuang Li slowly stood up and walked to the left.
The automatic camera followed his steps and moved to the left.
It was only then that everyone realized that a female vampire was actually wearing handcuffs and leg irons, kneeling on the ground, with an iron chain around her neck. An ultraviolet lamp was hanging above her head, irradiating her.
She was screaming in pain, her fangs biting her lips and bleeding, and sticky saliva mixed with blood slid down from the corners of her mouth, making her look like a rabid dog with half her body covered in blood.
The humans watching the livestream had never known that vampires could be so miserable. They watched in amazement, their hearts itching with a tingling desire.
The vampires gnashed their teeth and roared, "Turn off these billboards and channels! Quickly!"
The human technician said awkwardly, "If you turn off the live broadcast, we won't be able to track Zhuang Li's signal. Are you sure you want to turn it off?"
The arrogant vampires were dumbfounded, their words stuck in their throats, unable to utter them. Prince Okar had been killed by this human. If they couldn't capture him and atone for their sins, His Majesty Heinrich would surely suck their blood dry!
"This lowly human! Damn it! Damn it! Damn it! Die! Die! Die!" The vampires could only rage helplessly at the TV screen.
The human technician lowered his head and continued writing the extremely complex tracking code, a sneer curling up at the corner of his mouth. He would not help these vampires find Zhuang Li.
The live broadcast continues.
Zhuang Li looked down at the female vampire kneeling at his feet and slowly put on a pair of pure white gloves.
After putting it on, he walked around behind the female vampire, grabbed her hair, forced her to look up and face the camera, and said coldly: "This is the trash who betrayed my sister to Okar. Let me introduce her. Her name is Wang Annie, and she is now Okar's mistress."
Wang Annie screamed in humiliation, tears streaming down her face. She thought she would escape her humble past forever and gain endless life and wealth, but she had no idea that this beautiful dream was over just as it was beginning.
She never thought that the gentle and refined Zhuang Li would become so cruel when forced into a desperate situation!
He killed so many vampires by himself that even Okar was helpless against him.
How did he do it?
But the next moment, Wang Anni's thoughts were interrupted. She began to shake her head frantically, shedding tears of fear. Zhuang Li, holding a daisy made of black iron and burned red in the fire, slowly approached her with pliers.
"No, no, please don't!" she begged humbly, her gaudy face distorted with fear.
Zhuang Li pinched Wang Annie's jaw and gently asked, "How much human blood has this mouth sucked? Does human blood taste delicious?"
"No, I was wrong, I was wrong, please let me go." Wang Anni, who was in severe pain all over her body from the ultraviolet light, had no strength to resist at all.
She regretted it, she really regretted it! If she had known that Zhuang Li was such a lunatic, she shouldn't have tricked Zhuang Xiaomi into going to the party.
Zhuang Li ignored Wang Annie's plea for mercy, raised his hand, and steadily stuffed the burning red daisy into her mouth.
A cloud of black smoke came out, accompanied by a sizzling sound.
The slender flower stalk pressed against her tongue, the stretched petals burned her lips, and the scorched flesh and the red daisy adhered together, sealing Wang Anni's mouth. She had completely lost her voice, and her fangs would never grow back.
This brutal scene played out on the streets, in thousands of homes, in offices, and everywhere in China with internet access and television. Everyone was looking at Zhuang Li, their eyes filled with shock but not fear.
Think of the innocent girls who were slaughtered every full moon night; think of the pregnant women who were locked up in the baby factory; think of the babies who were drained of blood as soon as they were born; think of the relatives who left home and never came back... No human being would sympathize with a monster like Wang Annie!
Kill her! Kill her! Kill her! All humans screamed in their hearts.
Zhuang Li seemed to have heard everyone's thoughts, so he threw away the pliers, took a few steps back, and pressed the remote control in his hand.
Wang Annie was hung up with an iron chain around her neck and hung on a high beam.
This is an abandoned warehouse, but the four walls are covered with black cloth by Zhuang Li, and there are no clues for outsiders to investigate.
Holding a bright red daisy in her mouth, Wang Annie began to twist her body wildly like a fish off the shore. She moved closer to the ultraviolet light tube, and the excruciating pain on the surface of her body gradually spread to her inner body, as if it was shattering her internal organs.
"I once swore in front of Xiaomi's portrait that I would make sure you die without a burial place." Zhuang Li looked up at her, his tone as gentle as a lover's whisper.
Wang Annie's eyes were almost popping out of her head.
No, no, no, don't! She shook her head violently, and an extreme fear exploded in her mind.
Then, she really exploded.
Zhuang Li turned on dozens of ultraviolet lamps hanging from the beams.
The twisting and struggling Wang Annie exploded into a ball of bloody mist under the ultraviolet rays. After the mist dissipated, a skeleton fell to the ground and broke into pieces. Then Zhuang Li wrapped it in plastic cloth and threw it into the furnace to burn it into ashes.
He fulfilled his oath and made sure that the murderer who killed his sister was killed without a burial place.
Watching the flames in the furnace slowly licking the white bones, turning them black and cracked, the people guarding the screen breathed a long sigh of relief, as if frightened, but in fact, every pore of their body was filled with a refreshing sense of satisfaction.
Their traumatized hearts were unexpectedly healed by this bloody live broadcast. It was truly amazing; killing truly could stop killing! Even deepest feuds could be healed with blood!
The vampires who were also watching the live broadcast were terrified.
Wang Annie inherited Okar's bloodline, a noble among vampires! She was killed by a few UV lamps? Why? How did this human do it? If he's not found, he'll kill even more vampires!
After nineteen years, vampires once again experienced the fear of being hunted by humans.
"That's awesome! Good boy!" X clapped his palms, which were as big as a palm leaf fan, and shouted, "Girl, get your dad a bottle of beer!"
For once, Emile didn't stop his father from drinking. Today was indeed a day to celebrate.
"I want to drink too." Jindou raised his head, and his eyes, which were always full of hostility, were now bright, like a child.
"I'll get you a dozen, drink as much as you want." Emile rubbed Jindou's head with a very doting smile.
A strong atmosphere of joy permeated the dilapidated room.
No, it should be said that the whole of China was filled with an undercurrent of ecstasy. A spark lit up in the darkness.
"Turn off the live broadcast! Pull out the power, cut the wires, block the website, whatever you want, but the live broadcast must be turned off!" The vampires, whose hearts were severely hurt, yelled angrily.
The technician, timid, was about to block the website and cut off the signal when he saw Prince Okar appear on the screen. Zhuang Li was stepping on him, grabbing him by the hair, and he faced the camera, his face branded with the word "cheap."
Technician: “…” That was a close call! I almost laughed out loud!
Vampires: "...Your Highness!"
"If the signal is cut off, we really don't know what will happen to Prince Okar, and we have no way to find Zhuang Li's trace again." The technician said at the right time.
"No more cutting, keep reading!" the vampires said in great humiliation.
"Okay." The technician quickly tapped away, seemingly searching for someone, but in reality, the network was in chaos. No one could possibly catch Zhuang Li.
Seeing the word "cheap" burned on Okar's face by the iron, X sprayed a mouthful of beer directly onto the screen.
Emile quickly covered his mouth to suppress his laughter.
The usually aloof Jindou pointed at the TV and laughed heartily. She had been in a good mood since this morning.
Zhuang Li dragged Okar into a ray of sunlight, grabbed Okar's hair from behind, and forced him to face the camera.
The sunlight melted Okar's body, his flesh exploding layer by layer, revealing his bones from the outside in. Pitiful screams echoed one after another, like the devil's voice from hell.
"Please let me go, please! I didn't know she was your sister. I'm so sorry. Please let me go, I'll give you whatever you want!" Okar pleaded without any dignity. Only then did he act like an eighteen-year-old boy, revealing a rare vulnerability.
Zhuang Li strangled him with a belt and dragged him back to the sunless land before his heart exploded.
The camera followed the two people's figures and moved back and forth, always maintaining a clear picture.
Zhuang Li looked straight at the camera and said slowly, "Le Qinglan, did you see that? Your son is in my hands. If you want to save him, come to me in China."
Only then did he reveal his true purpose. His sword had been pointed at Le Qinglan from the beginning to the end, and Okar was just a bait.
"Good boy, you have ambition! Bird's Beak, do you see it? This is the new generation of young people in our China! There is still hope for this world, because the spark of resistance is still there!" X stood up, waving his fist.
The bird on the other end of the intercom sighed softly, then smiled happily.
"I should have performed the surgery on his mother for free," Bird's Beak grumbled regretfully.
Before the video ended, Zhuang Li pulled out the belt from around Okar's neck, stood up straight, and declared word by word: "Vampires, the dark age has arrived. Please prepare to face death."
The Dark Ages Are Coming? What does that mean?
The vampires who were watching the live broadcast were terrified, but they forced a sneer on their faces.
Then, this sneer was replaced by extreme fear.
Zhuang Li's handsome face vanished, and a video clip switched in, showing the Chinese president appearing on the screen. Surrounded by a group of bodyguards, he walked toward a car. As soon as he stepped through the door, his body exploded into pieces.
Another video clip quickly switched in, and the Vice President appeared on the screen. He walked to his balcony in his pajamas and stretched. As soon as he spread his hands, he was caught off guard and exploded into a bloody mist.
Then there was Minister X, Commander X, General X...
The videos switched in turn, with balls of blood-red fireworks blooming.
Thanks to the surveillance systems installed by these politicians for their own safety, they provided Zhuang Li with very clear and exciting footage.
The people in front of the screen were stunned.
The vampires were sweating profusely and their souls were terrified!
After more than 3,000 nobles were killed, dozens of politicians were also blown into bloody mist under the sunlight in the early morning of the same day.
"The dark age has arrived." X murmured and repeated these words, his cloudy eyes slowly lighting up with fire.
"The dark age has come!" he shouted, raising his arms and crying with joy.
No one knew what a dark age vampires once lived in. They hid in filthy sewers, and when they were starving, they could only catch a few rats to fill their stomachs. They dared not wantonly kill humans because vampire hunters would catch them and push them into the sunlight to burn them to ashes.
But now, for some unknown reason, Zhuang Li had caused these vampires to become afraid of sunlight again. They could no longer walk freely in the outside world, and could no longer use the so-called First Embrace to gain the surrender of humans.
If we cannot live freely in the sun; if we cannot go wherever we want; if a vampire can be easily killed by an ultraviolet lamp, which human being would be willing to become such a monster?
For vampires, the dark ages have arrived. But for humans, light has begun to return to this earth!
The video switched, and Zhuang Li's handsome face appeared before everyone. He nodded slightly and said politely, "Le Qinglan, I look forward to meeting you."
Without waiting for the vampires to cut off his signal, he cut it off himself.
The people watching the live broadcast seemed to have woken up from a big dream. They looked at each other without any expression on their faces, but there was a blazing fire in their eyes. This fire was called hope and also called resistance.
Zhuang's father and mother, who were also watching the live broadcast, hugged each other and cried bitterly.
"Well done, very well done! Son, mom and dad support you, you must keep going!" The two elderly people completely gave up their hope of a family reunion. If their son could bring peace to all mankind, then no matter what he faced, even the devil, even death, they would not stop him.
They didn't even allow their son to back down at this time.
