116. Entering the city
The underground world is actively vast. In addition to the six saint blood races representing the highest power and status symbols, there are many other races in the underground world. For example, cave dwellers, underground demons, crypt demons, underground goblins and other humanoid creatures, as well as crypt ice beads, crypt cold spiders, molten cave worms and other biological races with certain wisdom, as well as murderous rabbits, giant bees and other alien beasts.
Because the temperature in the underground world is constant, there is no seasonal division such as spring, summer, autumn and winter here. The only difference is day and night. Therefore, in addition to some differences in living environments, the underground world is actually a mixed scene.
All territory is divided according to clans and tribes. The stronger the clans and tribes, the larger the territory they own. Other people living in this territory can only be regarded as vassals of this clan or tribe, especially those villages and towns that have established gathering places, and they must pay tributes in exchange for peace and freedom of the gathering places.
Only small clans like the Kapa clan will lose control of their territory.
The helmsman of the Tades clan is not actually just an earl, but a real marquis rank vampire, so the territory he controls is much larger than Sean imagined. There are six earl ranks in the entire Tades clan, and the thirteen viscounts should be twelve now, and the barons have more than a hundred, not to mention the Lords and knights. However, to calculate the actual high-level combat power of a clan, usually only the blood clans above the viscount, so the six earls and thirteen viscounts are the real high-level combat power of the Tades clan, and it is also an important guarantee for ensuring that the entire Tades clan can gain a foothold in the secret faction.
Of course, most importantly, the existence of Tebourne Taders.
Although this blood clan is now just an earl rank, his limit on his future potential ensures that he can at least become a blood clan duke. Even if he is diligent enough and with a little luck, it is not impossible to become a prince.
This is the real reason why although the Tades clan is not a large clan now, there are many blood clans in the secret faction who treat it as a large clan.
Of course, if it were replaced by the faction of the Demon Party, the situation would be very likely to be different.
A young genius of a blood clan is enough to make many big clans compete for the struggle. They will not let such clans grow up, but will try every means to annex the blood clans with young geniuses. This is also the biggest difference between the Demon Party and the Secret Party.
Sean didn't know that his estimate of the Tades clan was wrong at that time.
In fact, when the entire underground world is involved in war, if you are not very familiar with the situation in the underground world, you must not judge the strength and foundation of a clan or tribe based on the situation you see in front of you. After all, the larger the territory of a clan, the more places you need to guard, so the power will definitely be dispersed, such as the Tades clan is in a war situation with a werewolf tribe.
This is the real reason why Sean miscalculated the Tades clan.
Kane only knows some common sense basis. Sean really has no hope for this guy who has never left the Kapa Clan Castle for more than two hundred years. Many things are combined based on some of Kane's descriptions and his experience over the past half month. As for those guys who died at Sean's hands, they basically did not bring any useful news to Sean.
Sean is actually quite helpless about this.
However, although Sean is not very familiar with the situation in the underground world, at least he still has rich adventure experience. So after killing people in the Tades clan territory, Sean took Kane all the way away. Occasionally, he passed through some villages and towns and then immediately replenished resources. Unless he was really tired, he would stay in these villages and towns. As for buildings like cities, Sean respected Xie Bumin.
I don’t even want to get close, let alone enter the city.
After moving forward for more than a week, Sean thought he should have left the territory of the Tades clan, Sean took Kane to a small town.
There is an unwritten rule in the underground world.
The gathering points formed by wanderers and some small forces or deliberately operated can be expanded without limit. As long as you can afford tribute, the clans within the jurisdiction will not pay attention to it. However, these gathering points are absolutely not allowed to build cities, and they can only maintain the scale of the gathering points forever. Even some items are not allowed to be traded or sold casually.
If you want to expand the gathering point into a city, you must accept the control of the clan. In addition, there are also cities like this that can purchase things that are not sold at the gathering point, and you can even see things that are also only available in big cities.
This is also why Sean did not enter the city before.
He had just killed the people of the Tades clan in the territory of the Tades clan, and he also heard from Kane and the blood clans he killed in the past half month that the blood clans had heard of the strangeness of the blood clan's means. Maybe they had a means to track themselves. However, any means have a timeliness, and as long as this timeliness is passed, there will be no problem. Therefore, what Sean thought at this time was to leave the territory of the Tades clan first.
He knew very well that if he really wanted to completely heal his injuries, he would definitely have to go into the city.
Because only cities have medical clinics, gathering points are not allowed to exist, which is also a guarantee for the control of their own territory by clans in each territory.
So after more than ten days of travel, Sean finally took Kane into the city.
The name of the city is also very complicated. Sean has already discovered that none of the towns in the underground world have a short name, as if the name is longer as good as possible. But the meaning of over and over again is actually only a few, such as hope, dawn, future, etc., and occasionally new and novel points are domineering, domineering, and invincible. This makes Sean dislike the taste of the residents of the underground world.
"Even the mass grassroots in the surface world won't give such a boring name." When Sean entered the city, he listened to the city name translated by Kane, and curled his lips disdainfully.
However, after entering the city, Sean did not rush to the clinic immediately, but began to wander around the city.
This is a kind of adventure habit that Sean developed in the game before. Every time he went to a new city, he would visit the city first and remember the roadmap of the entire city. Because in the game, there were only a few cities with safety zones, and almost no safety zones were set up in other cities. As long as the guards did not see it, they could perform PK operations. Therefore, in order to avoid trouble and risks, all players in the game developed good behaviors that were familiar with all the layout of the city.
"Where are we going? Lord Zorro." Kane finally couldn't help asking after following Sean for more than a day.
Sean looked back at Kane.
Since he fought a desperate battle with a baron from the Tades clan that day and absorbed the other party's blood and blood, Kane's temperament has changed a lot. He has become much more calm. He is not as timid as before, and there is no need for Sean to instruct him. He will insist on physical training and hunt some strange beasts, even monsters, and it seems that he is immersed in the battle.
At first, Sean just thought Kane had cured the disease of hemodialysis and fear and cowardice, but since he watched Kane's battle process, Sean knew something was wrong. To put it as the most common saying of the Black King, that is, Kane was ruined.
Once he enters a state of combat, Kane will fall into a state of madness. Moreover, he will be particularly keen on the scene of flesh and blood flying and blood splashing. Before, Sean saw Kane dragging his prey back, he thought it was just a difficult battle, but after seeing Kane's ruthlessness, he realized that these preys were tortured to death by Kane.
From extreme fear and cowardice to extreme madness and ruthlessness, Kane obviously embarked on a completely opposite extreme path.
The only thing that remains unchanged is that Kane still maintains a fear of Sean. Even though he still looks respectful and polite on the surface, Kane still dares not look at Sean. Deep in his eyes, there is a deep fear and fear of Sean. It is obvious that Sean's torture to Kane back then made him remember it deeply. However, Sean may not have seen it, but the Black King has observed that Kane's actions of abuse of prey were obviously imitating Sean's torture to Kane two months ago.
This is also the reason why the Black King kept saying that Kane was ruined by Sean.
Of course, no matter how bad you play, Kane's strength growth is also extremely obvious.
Different from other races’ growth methods, the blood clan’s strength growth method cultivates blood nuclei. As long as the blood nucleus can be replenished with enough blood to allow the blood nucleus to continue to grow, the blood clan’s strength will grow very quickly, especially after reaching the viscount level, when blood qi can be stored in the body, the blood nucleus will begin to undergo an endless automatic growth state, and at the same time it will begin to fully feed back to the host to increase the host’s combat ability.
However, this growth method does not just keep sucking blood. The blood nucleus has a critical point to bear in each stage. Once the critical point to bear in it, the blood nucleus will begin to undergo a new adaptation stage, which is the so-called self-transformation state. In this state, the blood genius generally chooses to enter a dormant state to avoid fighting and too vigorous movement, which leads to the failure of the blood nucleus transformation.
But Kane obviously did not have this awareness.
The continuous battles over the past ten days and the death battle with the Baron of the Tades clan have allowed Kane to successfully enter the baron rank. Although Sean's previous training for Kane, more of them are Kane's own potential and quality, and he has a physical quality and level that is not inferior to the Baron.
Kane has been just a knight for more than two hundred years, but he has gone from a knight to a baron in just two months. This growth rate of strength is probably the only one in the entire blood clan.
Similarly, this also made Sean understand one thing: the previous method of soaking blood pools against Kane can definitely improve the physical fitness of the blood clan. Moreover, the increase in this method of improvement is probably not small. Because of the Eye of Reality, Sean can see that Kane's physical fitness is increasing almost every day. If the current situation continues, it may take less than two months to reach the limit of the baron rank. Then he tries to break through the viscount rank.
The only thing that Sean cannot confirm is whether Kane's current physical condition is a factor in the transformation of the blood pool. If it is the former, then all the results must be judged after Kane is promoted to viscount; and if it is the latter, Sean feels that it is necessary to go to the castle of the Thirteenth Clan to see what kind of substance the blood pool is.
But the most important thing at the moment is the recovery of one's own injuries.
After the underground world entered a state of war, the level of danger increased by a factor of a factor of magnitude, which made Sean realize the importance of strength.
At this time, Kane asked, and Sean had already traveled around the entire city, so he said, "Let's go to the clinic to have a look."
"Then which clinic will we go to?" Kane asked.
While wandering along the way, Kane knew that there were three clinics in the entire city, in the east, south and the central area of the city. Although the three clinics seemed to be no different, two of them had a very obvious blood clan style. They were obviously clinics opened by blood clans; but the only one in the city center looked particularly unique and exquisite, and the tones were mainly dark tones. This was obviously a clinic opened by elves, but I don’t know if it was a dark elves or a blood elves.
"Let's go to the city center to see the situation first. It's also close to the city center." Sean thought for a while and said, "But be prepared for the battle."
The blood clan's clinic is quite special, mainly because the blood clan's injuries can be recovered by sucking blood and absorbing blood qi. Therefore, most of the blood clan's clinics are prepared for a large amount of blood. However, Sean is not a member of the blood clan. Therefore, the treatment methods of the blood clan's clinic have no effect on him at all. Instead, the clinics opened by demons, dark elves, and werewolfs may be able to cure his injuries.
The Spider Demon's clinic is also impossible, because it is also guided by the special structure of the Spider Demon's body.
As for the Blood Elf’s clinic, it’s not that it’s not possible, but with the Blood Elf’s extreme attitude, Sean doesn’t want to cause trouble by himself.
Kane didn't know why Sean didn't go to the blood clan's clinic, but instead went to the dark elf's clinic, but he didn't think much about it. After all, sometimes, even the blood clan's injuries could not be cured by taking blood diet, and could only be recovered through other treatment methods, such as being infected with some special formula toxins.
Therefore, Kane simply thought that Sean's injury was a bit special.
But what he really cares about is what Sean calls "combat preparation".
For Kane now, the tyranny of completely casting himself in battle has become his hobby. So when Sean said that he was ready for battle, it was completely different from the previous timid look. Kane's eyes could be described as emitting light, and his expression seemed particularly excited. Especially his licking of his lips reminded Sean of the term "pervert".
However, Kane's current appearance is inseparable from Sean's previous training. Therefore, although Sean felt a little helpless, he just shook his head slightly and did not say anything about this situation. He just silently prepared for the battle.
Because he knew very well that once the doctors in the clinic began to check their bodies, there was a great possibility that they would be exposed to human problems. Given the level of hatred of the underground world towards the surface world, it was very likely that he would be beaten up on the spot, so Sean had to make complete preparations.
It is also for this reason that Sean chose such a small city to experiment first.
Because there is only one actual manager in this city, a blood clan viscount, which is the information obtained by Sean after entering the city through multiple sources of inquiries.
This strength level is just at the level that Sean can cope with without using special means. Before, she had a detailed understanding of all the terrain and routes of the entire city, and was also prepared to break through for the conflicts and battles that may arise in the future. Once she was really beaten up, Sean could also choose a road to break out as soon as possible to avoid the crisis of being trapped in the city and finally being exhausted.
However, if someone has not seen through his identity in the clinic, Sean plans to go to a larger city to try it.
Because according to Kane, the larger the city, the higher the level of the facilities. There are some problems that cannot be cured in small cities. In big cities, clinics may be cured, especially blood food for the blood tribes. The quality of the reserves of clinics in big cities is definitely higher than that of small cities. Although the higher the level of clinics, the greater the possibility of discovering Sean is found to be a human being, but in this situation, Sean has no choice.
Soon, Sean and Kane arrived at this elf clinic in the city center.
Looking at the dark elves busy in the clinic, Sean knew that this was a clinic opened by the dark elves.
If it was opened by the Blood Elf, Sean would definitely turn around and leave without saying a word.
After hesitating for a moment, Sean took a deep breath and then walked into the clinic. At the moment he entered the clinic, the people Sean needed to be guarded against were no longer limited to the people in the clinic, but also Kane following him. (To be continued.)
ps: Finally able to log in... Qidian background has been crashing recently, which is so painful.
