Chapter 382 Vampire Clan

Soon the administrator here came after hearing the news. Mu You brought Coke and explained to the administrator that this was just his cat.

Coke is not registered at all. To be precise, it sneaks in to eat and drink.

The administrator also looked at the surveillance camera and discovered that the cat had climbed over the wall and sneaked in here a week ago. It probably didn't want to be locked in a cage. It never showed up when the administrator was there. It only appeared after the administrator left. It will appear quietly, and then eat the cat food of other kittens through the cage. Occasionally, when the adopters come to see the cat, it will also take the opportunity to show up, act coquettishly, and get some cat snacks or something.

However, whenever an adopter takes a fancy to it and wants to adopt it back, the cat will immediately flee the scene, eat, drink, and then run away, which is a complete "scumbag" behavior.

After Mu You showed some evidence of raising Coke in the past to prove that it was indeed his cat, the person in charge didn't hesitate and let him take the cat away.

After a while, Mu You returned to the pet shop with Coke.

As soon as he returned to a familiar place, Cola meowed excitedly, rushed into the hall and ran around, marking the scent everywhere.

"Don't pee, and don't go upstairs. I'll give you a bath first."

Mu You hurriedly warned him. He didn't know how he got here these days. He was extremely dirty and infested with fleas.

Seeing that Mu You was going to put water in the pet bathroom, Coke hurried to the cat food machine and patted the empty food bucket.

"Muyou, let's get some cat food first! Cat food!"

Mu You had no choice but to open a bag of cat food for it first.

"Crash..."

As the cat food machine came out, Coke immediately buried his head into the cat bowl and took a big gulp of the food. He was trembling with the delicious food: "Yes, it's this flavor! Those stray cats eat junk food, and it's really your food here." The most delicious…”

While he was wolfing down Coke, he remembered something again and hurriedly raised his head and begged Muyou: "Quickly, Muyou, mobile phone, give me your mobile phone quickly, I want to go online!"

"Where's your cell phone?"

"My mobile phone fell into the water and was damaged the day I left..." Coke looked like he was going through Internet addiction withdrawal.

Mu You had no choice but to get a spare mobile phone and throw it to it to play with before entering the bathroom.

"...So many new anime have been updated this month...Well, Pesticide has a new skin..."

While Coke was burying his head in the cat bowl, he held the phone in front of his face, his paws scratching on the screen, his eyes and mouth busy with their own business, and he was extremely busy.

At this time, Mianmian walked out of the bedroom on the second floor holding a pillow, rubbing her sleepy eyes: "Muyou, what is so noisy..."

Listening to the strange sounds below, Mianmian yawned and walked down the stairs.

But as soon as she arrived on the first floor, she saw a short-haired shorthair in front of the cat food machine not far away, sticking its butt out and immersed in eating, and at the same time, it was still playing with the phone skillfully with its two cat paws.

Mianmian was stunned and woke up instantly. She looked at the cat in disbelief and was stunned on the spot.

At this time, Coke also noticed the girl coming downstairs in the distance. His movements suddenly stagnated, and he turned around. After their eyes met for a second, the hair on Coke's body suddenly exploded, his ears were stuck to the back of his head, and his back was high. The blood chakra eyes were frightened.

Of course it's not the girl that scares her, but what's behind the girl.

In the shadow behind the girl, a humanoid shadow quietly emerged, baring its teeth and claws towards Coke, and let out threatening growls.

The oppressive feeling of the shadow ghost was certainly not something that Coke, who had no fighting ability, could withstand. Coke was so frightened that he ran away with his tail between his legs, turned around and slipped into the bathroom.

When she saw Mei Dan running away, the little girl realized and hurriedly chased after him.

After chasing him into the pet bathing room, he found that Mu You was inside, and the cat was hiding under the bathtub and shivering.

"Muyou, this cat has become a spirit, and it can play with a mobile phone!" The little girl hurriedly pointed at the short hair and complained to Muyou.

"I know. His name is Coke. He is my cat. He ran away and was just found."

It was only then that Mu You remembered that the two of them didn't know each other yet. When the little girl came to the store for the first time, the Coke just happened to be given away.

"Muyou, who is she? Why are there strangers living in our territory?" At this time, Coke's voice also sounded in Muyou's mind.

"Her name is Mu Mianmeng, you can call her Mianmian. As for the thing behind her, you don't have to be afraid. As long as you don't mess with it, it won't attack you." Mu You introduced it.

"Mu..."

Coke looked at him in shock when he heard this: "How long have I been gone, and you already have a daughter?"

"Just an adopted daughter." Mu You shook his head.

"boss……"

At this time, Xiaoya happened to come to work. She opened the door and entered the store. When she saw the little girl standing in front of the bathroom door, she subconsciously walked over and took a look, and she was suddenly surprised.

"Cola?!"

"Meow……"

When Cola saw Xiaoya, he immediately responded weakly under the bath. Unfortunately, there was a shadow ghost blocking the outside, and it didn't dare to show its head at all.

"Why is Boss Coke back?"

Xiaoya walked in in surprise and squatted down by the bath to take out Coke. However, when she saw Coke's appearance clearly, the surprise suddenly turned into fright: "Coke, why are you so thin?"

Coke has changed drastically from when he left. He has changed from the fat cat covered in flesh to the skinny appearance now, looking as if he has been severely abused.

"Meow……"

Cola immediately cooperated and made a wronged sound for comfort.

Xiaoya looked at Muyou and asked.

Muyou sighed: "It's a long story, let's wash it first."

"Oh..."

Xiaoya hurriedly took Coke out, put it in the bathtub, took out the tools, and skillfully washed it.

While washing, the two also listened to Coke's intermittent description of its experience during this period.

It turned out that after it was sent back to the academy, its owner Fuya quickly took it back to his hometown and accepted the "plane reset" ceremony in the ancestral home to help it get rid of the influence of the door.

However, before this ceremony, it is necessary to first eliminate the alien world substances in its body to return it to its original magic state.

So the first thing it needs to do is lose weight.

However, because Coke ingested too many substances from the earth, it would take a long time to eliminate all of them, and time was exactly what they lacked the most at that time. Because Coke's lifespan was doubling every day, its owner could only take some radical measures. He used some secret method to replace all the bones, flesh and blood in its body, and sucked it into a "cat dry" in almost one day, finally meeting the requirements of the ceremony.

In the end, the conversion ceremony was successfully completed, but Coke was half-dead. In particular, in order to prevent it from rebounding, its owner strictly controlled its diet and work and rest, and it had clear soup and water every day. More importantly, it was not used to the Internet.

Coke soon couldn't stand it. Cat food withdrawal syndrome and Internet withdrawal reactions occurred at the same time, making it feel that the cat life was hopeless and worse than death every day.

One day, Coke was so greedy that he wanted to steal some cat food left for him by Mu You, but was discovered by his owner and destroyed the cat food directly. This scene made Coke completely collapse. In grief and anger, it chose to run away from home, but it didn't go far. It hid and played near the ancestral home.

Later, when it was chasing butterflies, it found a dry well in the backyard of its ancestral home. The well made it feel familiar, so it jumped down out of curiosity to take a look. Unexpectedly, when it climbed out again, it found that the surrounding scene suddenly changed. It actually returned to the forgotten land!

Then it began to wander on the earth.

Kele couldn't find the address of the pet store, and was afraid that the bad guys would see its extraordinaryness and catch it and sell it. He didn't dare to communicate with strangers, so he could only wander around the streets, trying to meet an acquaintance. Of course, it was not that easy. After two days of hunger, it foraged all the way and found the conservation base in the suburbs. It found that there was food and drink there, so it lived there and lived by eating and drinking every day.

"How pitiful, Kele!"

Xiaoya was so soft-hearted after hearing this.

Mu You was pondering what it had just said.

"You mean, the dry well in the backyard of your master's hometown is directly connected to a dry well in K City?" Mu You looked at Kele and asked.

Kele said that when it entered the well and came out, the surroundings changed from the Star Spirit Realm to the Earth. This could only be the effect of a space crack.

"Yes, meow! And I remembered it as soon as I came here. The last time my master took me back to the ancestral home, I was blown into the dry well by a gust of wind when I went out to play, and then I drifted here!" Kele nodded hurriedly.

"Then did you try to go back to the well again?" Mu You asked. If there was really a space crack in the well, it should be possible to go back at any time if you can come here.

"Of course I tried, meow, several times, but no matter what posture I jumped into the well, I couldn't go back to the Star Spirit Realm." Kele said.

"Oh?" Mu You frowned after hearing this. Isn't it a space crack?

There is nothing to figure out here, so Mu You is going to go to the scene to see it in person.

After Xiaoya cleaned Kele, Mu You took it out, and Vivian followed him.

Under the guidance of Coke, the two searched for a long time and finally found the so-called "dry well" in a barren mountain forest in the northern suburbs of K City.

This dry well is located on a hillside, surrounded by weeds, and the wellhead is completely covered by weeds. If it weren't for Coke's guidance, even if he passed by here, he would not have found a well here.

Mu You lifted the weeds and found a square wellhead below. The interior was made of irregular stones. It was about ten meters deep. It was pitch black inside, and the wooden fence beside the well had long been rotten, with a pinch of debris.

Mu You collected some of the wood chips and wrapped them in paper, ready to take them back for research.

Then he took out the magic wand, condensed the light spell, jumped into the well, stepped on the well wall and slid down to the bottom of the well little by little.

As Coke said, the bottom of the well was ordinary and there was nothing unusual.

"Use your mind's eye to look." At this time, Vivian reminded.

Mu You hurriedly closed his eyes and opened his mind's eye.

From the perspective of the mind's eye, the surrounding scene changed.

Under the bottom of the well where he was standing, there was indeed a dark blue space crack, which was very similar to the crack he had seen in Japan before, but this crack was just an illusory projection for him, or for the earth, and could not be touched at all.

"What is this?" Mu You asked curiously.

"This is a 'permanent space crack' that has been stabilized by humans." Vivian said.

"Permanent?" Mu You was stunned: "Does it mean that it will not close and you can freely travel between the two sides at any time?"

"Yes." Vivian glanced at the crack below: "However, this crack has been tampered with, and the seal has become a one-way crack. You can only come here from the Star Spirit World, but you can't go to the Star Spirit World from here."

"So that's it..."

Mu You nodded. No wonder Coke came here without any obstacles, but couldn't go back. This well is actually one-way.

"Can this seal be lifted?" Mu You asked again.

"It can't be lifted. The sealing method is very clever." Vivian said solemnly, and then added: "At least I don't have the ability."

"I understand." Mu You nodded. Since even Vivian couldn't do it, it must not be something he could solve in a short time.

Then Mu You left the dry well, found some large stones from the surrounding area, buried the dry well layer by layer, and processed the surface until there was no trace at all.

For the time being, it is not known who dug this well, but since it is connected to the ancestral home of Coke's owner, it must be related to her family. When I see her in the game later, I can ask her.

…

At night, in the pet shop, Mu You logged into the game again.

The time in the game came to 7pm, the scheduled time for the vampire clan meeting, and Mu You and his cheap sister arrived on time.

[You and Mai Yi came to the 'abandoned dark church'. ]

[The dark church is the former site of the Holy Light Church, located in the 'North Street of the Old City'. However, after the great migration of the Undercity a thousand years ago, the residents collectively moved to the new city, and the old city was completely abandoned. Now it is the territory of various ghosts and insect monsters. This dark church is also one of the abandoned buildings. ]

[Today, the old city is filled with a thin white fog. This is the fog created by the Heart of the Mist. It will make outsiders who stray into it lost in the fog, always circling in the same place, unable to distinguish the direction, so as to ensure the smooth holding of the vampire clan meeting. 】

The Heart of Mist was handed over to Uncle Jonas by Mu You in the morning. According to him, the Heart of Mist is a treasure belonging to all the blood race, but the custody was awarded to Liston, who had made great achievements in war, by the previous Duke. So after the clan meeting is over, Mu You can go to the vampire Duke to get it back.

[In front of the church gate, the blood race participants from various families appeared one by one, greeted each other, and entered the church one by one after the vampires at the door verified their invitations. ]

[You and Mai passed the inspection and stepped into the church. ]

[At this time, an exaggerated long table has been set up in the church, and the long table is full of delicacies. In addition to the main seat, there are 72 seats on both sides, representing 72 families, and there is a second seat behind each seat. ]

[You and Mai found the position of your Rhine family at the end of the long table, in an inconspicuous corner. 】

This seating order is based on the existing strength of each family, and the Rhine family did not report the news of Liston's return. In the eyes of outsiders, the strongest person in their family is only a viscount, so it is normal to be ranked last.

Of course, Mu You didn't care about sitting at the back, and he didn't even plan to sit in the main seat of the family. Instead, he was ready to let Mai show up. He sat in the second seat first to hide, after all, he was not sure if there were other players participating in this meeting.

If there were players, the players could recognize each other at a glance.

[When sitting down, you let your sister Mai sit at the head of the family on the grounds of memory loss and unfamiliarity with the situation. ]

[You sat behind her and activated the hermit card. ]

[As the number of people in the church increased, after a while, all the family members finally gathered. ]

[The only existing duke of the blood clan, Vanzo Brand, walked into the venue, sat at the head of the long table, and announced the official start of the clan meeting. ]

The clan meeting began, and Mu You was also quickly checking the information of everyone in the hall at this time.

The vampires present were basically the most elite group of vampires. Mu You made a simple count and found that there was a duke and seven marquises, all of whom belonged to different families. There were more earls, as many as 46, but some of them were sitting in the second seat. There were only 39 earls who truly represented the highest title of the family.

And the highest status of the remaining families was only the viscount.

Therefore, the family status of the vampires was naturally divided into three levels according to the title: the eight marquis and duke families belonged to the upper-class families and held most of the right to speak; the 39 earl families were middle-class families and were the backbone of the vampires; and the last 25 viscount families were lower-class families, basically with few people and no masters to protect them, and they might disappear at any time.

As a result, after looking around, Mu You did not find the existence of other players. All the people on the scene were aboriginals!

[Duke Brand took out ten bottles of blood drops and announced the first topic of today's clan meeting: the distribution plan of the ten drops of ancestor blood. 】

【“For ranks below earl, only one drop of the ancestor’s blood is needed for each promotion, while for earl to be promoted to marquis, three drops of the ancestor’s blood are needed, and for marquis to be promoted to duke, ten drops are needed.”】

【“According to the rules left by the ancestor before his death, in order to most efficiently promote the strength of the clan members, the ten drops of blood will be distributed in the form of 331111.”】

[Brand first divided three bottles of blood drops and put them aside: "First, the first batch of three drops of ancestral blood will be distributed to the earl family that has made the highest comprehensive contribution to my blood family in the past thousand years. The nominated families are: the Vagro family, the Maca family, and the Ferratu family. These three families have maintained the stability of the clan in terms of intelligence, economy, and defense against enemies. Their contributions must be obvious to everyone. The specific family to be distributed will be decided by all family leaders later."]

Mu You watched the text pop up one by one.

The blood drop distribution of this clan meeting seems to be quite principled. The ten drops of blood are not directly monopolized by those high-ranking families. Instead, they are prepared to be distributed to families below the marquis first.

Because in the rules of the title, there is a rule: each time a high-ranking person is promoted, he can divide up to three drops of heart blood. The rule of helping other blood relatives in the same family to upgrade only applies to blood relatives with the same surname.

For example, if Mu You gets the blood drop and is promoted to Marquis, he can divide three drops of heart blood to help Mai Yi and his uncle, two viscounts, to be promoted to Earl. After they are promoted, they can continue to divide their heart blood to help other barons in the family to be promoted to Viscount.

Therefore, as long as the leader of each family is promoted once, the whole family can be promoted to a higher level.

331111, that is to say, it will be divided into two Earl families and four Viscount families.

Earl Mu You needs three drops of blood to be promoted to Marquis. He will definitely not get the first three drops of blood. His skin has been dormant for the past thousand years and has made no contribution to the blood clan.

Now he is aiming at the distribution of the second batch of three drops of blood.
