In the minds of all the vampires present, even if Emlyn was not the most bizarre of his kind, he would definitely be ranked in the top ten.
As a member of a race that is born with a very long life, it is quite common to cultivate one or more hobbies to pass the time. Emlyn is not the only one who likes dolls, but the problem is that, apart from buying new dolls to match new clothes and going to the hospital to get blood to drink, he hardly goes out and does not like to interact with his own people. Unless he is particularly eager for fresh blood or needs to learn historical knowledge and exchange corresponding materials and items, he basically will not participate in corresponding gatherings.
This kind of living condition is almost the same as that of several senior figures who are so old that they have to lie in special coffins to barely survive. It is impossible to tell that he belongs to a guy who has just reached adulthood. Naturally, Emlyn has become a topic of conversation among other vampires at gatherings.
For so many years, everyone just talked about it casually and joked about it in private, just like discussing the various weirdos in Backlund every day. But when Emlyn was said to have "lost his way" and walked into the Harvest Church on his own, he was caught by the bishop of Mother Earth and locked up in the basement. His image began to slide towards the shame of the vampires and the protagonist of various jokes, and it was difficult to recover.
But such a guy who brought shame to the tribe actually hunted three "Original Moon" believers in succession!
Those are all artificial vampires!
Did he ask for help from the clergy of the Church of Mother Earth? Or hired a particularly powerful bounty hunter? Thoughts flashed through the minds of different vampires, wondering how Emlyn had won the competition.
At this moment, Casimi coughed lightly and said:
"Emlyn has collected the corresponding heritage and has become a 'Baron'."
Baron... When the vampires looked at Emlyn again, they were no longer confused and suspicious. Their eyes were filled with shock, surprise and astonishment.
For the first time in his life, Emlyn was stared at like this by his fellow tribesmen. He suddenly felt as if his body was light and his mind was filled with joy. This made him want to raise his chin proudly and say, "You should call me Baron."
This feeling of satisfaction was the same as when he saved up money for a long time and finally bought the doll he had always wanted... Emlyn praised silently, holding back the words that were about to come out of his mouth. With a faint smile on his face, he slowly looked around, then buttoned his coat and stood up and walked towards Casimi Odra.
When the other vampires came to their senses and looked at the two barons in front of them with complicated eyes, Cassimir finally spoke:
“The winner of this hunting competition will be directly admitted to the candidate list of ‘Viscount’ and receive free ceremonial assistance.
"In addition, he will also receive a ring made by the First Ancestor."
As he spoke, Casimi took out a silver jewelry box carved with intricate patterns from his pocket, opened it with a snap, and showed it to all the vampires present.
This is a translucent ring that seems to be made of light red amber. Its top is inlaid with a blood-red gem that is half the size of a fingernail and emits a faint light.
"It's called 'Lilith's Ring'. It can make the wearer more charming and always in a good state of a full moon." Casimi briefly introduced, "It can also make the surrounding area have a full moon effect, greatly enhancing the corresponding extraordinary abilities. At the same time, it can project a door that leads to the depths of the spiritual world."
Casimi paused and added:
"This door is the 'Gate of Summoning', which allows creatures from the depths of the spirit world to come to the real world, but there is only one chance within a certain period of time.
"When a spirit creature passes through this door, it is equivalent to signing a corresponding agreement with the wearer, and can serve the wearer for a certain period of time, which is about five minutes. If it needs to be maintained for longer, the wearer must communicate with the spirit creature in person and re-sign a longer contract.
"Normally, the spiritual creature summoned is equal to or slightly stronger than the wearer, but there is also the possibility of being weaker or stronger. There was once a viscount who used this ring to summon a demigod-level spiritual creature.
"The stronger the spiritual creatures are, the more likely they are to defy the protocol of the 'Gate of Summoning' itself and endanger the wearer. If you encounter this situation, you must decisively cancel the projection and terminate the summoning.
"Its negative effect is 'blood thirst'. It needs to drink at least one bottle of human blood every hour to relieve the symptoms. Otherwise, the blood will boil and evaporate, and within a quarter of an hour, a baron will die."
I don't reject this. On the contrary, I am eager to drink blood frequently. But the problem is that I can't get so much blood... Emlyn controlled his joy and excitement and thought about how to solve the negative effects.
At this time, Kasimir glanced at him and said:
"Additional blood needs are provided by the Clan."
The question then becomes how to transform the bottle and how to carry so much blood with you... Emlyn glanced at the other vampires who looked envious and jealous, and asked:
"If I don't wear it, will I have 'blood thirst'?"
"No." Casimi shook his head firmly.
Emlyn stared at Lilith's Ring and asked again:
"If I wear it for 59 minutes and then take it off, will there be 'blood thirst'?"
Casimi's facial muscles twitched and he said:
"When you put on the ring, you will suffer from 'blood thirst'. You must drink a bottle of human blood to calm down for an hour. During this process, if you take it off and put it on again, the 'blood thirst' will be reactivated. No matter whether the previous hour has passed or not, you have to drink blood again. Do you understand what I mean?"
"Of course, this is not a complicated question." Emlyn said with a click of his tongue.
Casimi retracted his gaze and looked at the other vampires and said:
"I will give this ring to the winner of this hunting competition, Emlyn White."
"Congratulations, Emlyn." He then extended his right hand to Emlyn and shook hands with him.
Then, he handed the bloody "Lilith Ring" to Emlyn.
"Thank you." Emlyn smiled reservedly.
Casimi didn't look at him again and said to the other vampires:
"There are two targets left. These are your prey and there will be rewards as well."
…………
10 o'clock at night, above the gray fog.
Klein received the "Lemano Travel Notes" sacrificed by Emlyn, and learned the function of the so-called "Lilith Ring".
There were no other problems. The most noteworthy thing was the "Gate of Summoning" leading to the depths of the spirit world... Maybe one day, the ancient god Lilith would come out through that door... Of course, many prerequisites must be met... Klein made a bold guess while flipping through "Lemanno's Travel Notes" to check which extraordinary abilities Emlyn had used and which ones he had supplemented.
"I've used up all my Lightning Strike and I don't have any more Travel... This guy really doesn't feel bad about using other people's abilities...
"I added a 'Dark Wing', which can help the user gain a speed boost, giving them the ability to fly for a short period of time, and can also transform into a group of illusory vampire bats to attack the enemy...
"One is 'Full Moon', which can make the area within a certain range become full moon, spirituality grows, and death becomes stronger... This is recorded on 'Lilith's Ring'...
"One is the 'Corrosion Claw', which can make the nail grow an extra section with mysterious symbols and patterns. It is sharp enough to cut through steel and has a strong corrosive ability. It is the nemesis of defense methods such as scales and membranes...
"One is 'Animal Senses', which can communicate with animals, drive animals, and share their senses... If used well, it can have miraculous effects... Haha, I've never seen Emlyn use it before, what a waste...
"One is 'Abyssal Shackles', a spell-like ability from the Dark Realm that can condense darkness or shadows into chains to restrict or control enemies...
"There is no 'Gate of Summoning'... That's right. This should be very difficult to record. Given Emlyn's personality, he would probably give up after trying a few times and failing..." Klein flipped through "Lemano's Travel Notes" and used divination skills and mystic knowledge to interpret the function of the new Beyonder ability.
Retracting his gaze, he waved his hand to let the "Poseidon's Scepter" fly over, and added a few "Thunder Strike" on the notes - this was based on his usual fear of lack of firepower.
Then, with the help of the "Sun Brooch", Klein recorded "summoning holy light" and "making holy water", making the extraordinary abilities of "Lemanno Travel Notes" more diverse.
After doing all this, he closed his notes and picked up the "Nightmare Candle".
After dealing with the secondary personality in the afternoon, he did not return the magical item immediately. Instead, he thought that it belonged to the "audience" field and might help him explore the sea of collective subconsciousness in "Groselle's Travels", so he planned to wait until the half-day deadline to give it to Emlyn.
However, after research, he discovered that this "Nightmare Candle" did not soothe the spirit or eliminate negative emotions. It could only allow people to enter deep into the target's mind, plant hints or solve problems.
Huh... Klein exhaled, and through the bestowal ceremony, he returned the "Nightmare Candle" and "Lemano's Travel Notes" to Emlyn and Fors respectively.
Back in the real world, he took a comfortable bath, read newspapers and magazines, and then went to bed.
In a daze, Klein suddenly woke up and realized that someone had entered his dream.
He saw the scene before his eyes change. The sky suddenly became dark and deep, and then dotted with sparkling diamonds, which made people feel awe and peace from the bottom of their hearts.
From afar, the sound of chanting psalms could be heard, ethereal and orderly, going straight into the heart.
At the same time, the clouds moved, and the red moon appeared half-hidden, casting a soft light.
All this made Klein feel as if he had arrived in the kingdom of the Goddess of Night. Even in his dreams, he could feel his whole body relaxed and extremely comfortable.
This is... Klein suddenly understood what was going on.
This was a Extraordinary from the Church of Darkness who came in the middle of the night to comfort the wealthy man Dwayne Dantès through dreams in order to heal the psychological trauma he had suffered in the afternoon.
I can't sleep well if you guys are like this! Klein sighed helplessly in his heart.
