After all, this is actually not a good thing for Nighteye, at least it means that in the eyes of the Black Wing King, Nighteye is not the most qualified successor.
A vampire girl asked in confusion: "Your Highness Ye Tong is a native species. Is there anyone with a more pure bloodline than Your Highness?"
As soon as this question came out, the hall suddenly became quiet. Many people had actually thought about this question, but no one was stupid enough to say it.
The original species means that what is awakened is the bloodline of the ancestor, which is the bloodline closest to Anduya. Even the descendants that the monarch personally embraced are not as good as the original species. Among the younger generation of the Monroe clan, there is only one original species, Nighteye.
In the entire vampire race, the number of original species is only a handful, but their awakened bloodline is far inferior to Night Eye.
Even among the thirteen second-generation ancestors, the black-winged king Anduya has the highest combat power. But now, another blood descendant with the same bloodline of Anduya has appeared. In this way, Nighteye is no longer
Only, the value has also undergone subtle changes.
Although Ye Tong stood in front of the window, she had already listened to the discussions of the young vampires behind her. When she heard this, she should have been worried or thinking about her future, but for some reason, Ye Tong felt something in her tired heart.
Qianye's figure appeared.
She smiled bitterly and pressed her forehead against the cold metal edge of the porthole. The war in the Evernight Continent has subsided, and Blackstream City seems to have not been included in the attack target in the end. So, is he okay?
The airship crossed the void and gradually flew towards the Twilight Continent. Nighteye looked at the continent that had occupied the entire porthole, and his mood slowly calmed down, sinking that figure into his heart.
The last part of the journey was exceptionally peaceful. Qianye did not encounter any obstacles and arrived at Youcheng smoothly.
This is a fortified city with a steel style. The city wall is twenty meters high, and the walls are actually inlaid with thick steel plates. Although steel is not valuable among metals, building a city of steel is still a big deal.
The most eye-catching thing from a distance is the heart of the human city: the Perpetual Moving Tower. Youcheng has six permanent moving towers, five of which are built around the city, guarding the towering central power tower.
Above the city, there is a huge airship floating, with its head and tail nearly a hundred meters long. From a distance, it looks like a small floating fortress. This airship is not flying, and there are several lines hanging from it.
The thick iron rope on the arm is used to fix the position.
Qianye looked around and saw that there were two aerial cannons, several anti-aircraft machine guns, and several long-distance telescopes pointed in different directions on the aerostat. Even though he was used to seeing the cutting-edge ordnance of the Red Scorpion headquarters,
I couldn't help but marvel at Youcheng's courage, actually fixing an airship as a watchtower and firepower point.
The city gate of Youcheng is a steam-driven rail metal gate. It is now opening time. Half of the gates on both sides are not included in the city wall. Even so, the width of the passage in the middle for carriages, horses and pedestrians to enter and exit is already wider than the city gate of Heiliu City.
Big and small. When Qianye passed the city gate, he discovered that the gate was not one layer, but made up of five layers of overlapping metal doors.
Youcheng has a large population and is located on the border, but there are no traces of war in the city. The streets are wide and clean, and the eaves of many buildings are exquisitely decorated. From time to time, there are gorgeous works that make people's eyes shine.
Qianye walked along the street towards the city center, and the buildings that caught his eye gradually became taller and more majestic. Among them, there were more and more retro-style buildings, with carved metal beams and columns mixed with stone brick walls, showing a kind of
A strange sense of beauty. He saw a seven-story restaurant, a company headquarters hundreds of meters high, and a grand square that could accommodate thousands of people.
After entering the central area, there are many shops with the emblem of the Yanyun Zhao family on their shop signs. Whether it is a restaurant or a gun shop, they all have one thing in common. The exterior is carved and decorated, and the interior is extremely gorgeous, even in this bustling street.
It also stands out from the crowd.
The clothes and colors of people walking around the central city are obviously different. Travelers like Qianye who are tired of travel are quite rare.
Qianye walked around the neighborhood and found a mid-range hotel on the edge of the central city. The price was several times higher than that of Weiyang, the largest city in Yongye Continent, which made him secretly speechless.
Although this hotel can only be regarded as average in Youcheng, the maids are all quite delicate. Qianye found the room, put away his things, took a pleasant bath, and then threw himself on the soft big bed.
After a long period of escape and fighting, this place is simply a paradise.
Qianye closed his eyes, took a nap, jumped up from the bed, looked at the facilities in the room, and pulled a tassel hanging from the head of the bed. The copper bell at the other end of the hotel rang happily.
A moment later, there was a knock on the door, and a soft voice came: "What are your orders?"
Qianye opened the door and said to the maid: "Bring me a map of Youcheng, and then bring in three meals."
The maid saw Qianye's face clearly, her eyes lit up, and she smiled charmingly, "I'll prepare it for you immediately! In addition, if you want to visit the city, I can act as a guide."
Qianye didn't make any unnecessary response, and the maid wasn't disappointed either. She gave a still charming look and left. After a while, the map and food were delivered to the room. Qianye ate and drank enough, and studied the map for a while.
Finally, I finally found the goal of this trip: Jinxi Casino.
It was still afternoon, so he simply took another nap to recuperate his energy and adjust everything to the best before he packed up his equipment and left the hotel.
Night has fallen in Youcheng, the streets are brightly lit, and there are no fewer pedestrians than during the day.
Qianye hurriedly walked towards the Jinxi Casino. The casino was close to the central area and was a three-story building. Although its appearance was splendid, it had some signs of wear and tear, and there were some areas of the neon lights that were not bright.
As usual, there were several strong men in black standing at the entrance of the casino, with their chests and belly protruding, exuding a strong aura of the Force, expressionlessly scanning the people coming in and out.
Qianye walked into the casino gate with the crowd, and was immediately greeted by a young girl. She smiled and said, "How can I serve you?"
The girl is pretty and lovely, but she is not as good as the receptionists at another big casino two streets away. This is also the difference between the two casinos, and the Zhao clan is behind the casino named Yanyue.
Qianye took out ten imperial gold coins, put them in the girl's hand, and said, "Change them into chips, and then take me to the place where we play Black Jack."
The girl smiled sweetly, exchanged the chips in a moment, and then led Qianye up to the second floor and entered a medium-sized gambling hall. There were more than ten gamblers here, the environment was elegant and quiet, and several maids shuttled back and forth.
, serving gamblers.
Ten gold coins just gave Qianye the qualifications to enter this gambling hall, and also bought the girl a sweet smile. However, if you want to exchange for her more charming appearance and ambiguous attitude, ten gold coins are not enough.
At least twenty coins are needed. And if you exchange enough chips for fifty gold coins, you can go up to the third floor and bring this girl into the room.
Qianye had no interest in these entertainments at all. He came here just to contact the recipient of the Rock Heart Jade Book. He looked around and then walked towards a card table.
Blackjack is a card game that is simple and easy to learn.
Qianye sat down at the gambling table, asked for a hand of cards, and played a few games randomly, losing and winning. In the seventh game, he casually turned his cards over. It was a small move, not eye-catching. It was a lot.
The gamblers all had their own little moves, and the dealer just glanced at them casually and stopped paying attention.
In the blink of an eye, there were several more rounds of cards, and in the second round of seven, Qianye turned his hand over again seemingly inadvertently. The dealer's eyes once again passed over Qianye, and he continued to collect and deal cards as usual, and won.
Or push out chips.
In the third round of seven, Qianye played horizontally again and lost the round. By this time, he had lost most of the chips he had exchanged for ten gold coins. Qianye pushed the cards and stood up, seemingly annoyed. As soon as he left
As soon as he took his seat, eager gamblers came over to take his seat.
Qianye walked around the casino and seemed to have no interest in other gambling games, so he walked out.
At this moment, a wisp of fragrance came, followed by a soft voice, very close to Qianye's ear, "We also have some special games, are you interested?"
Qianye had long felt that someone was approaching, so he turned around and saw that the person speaking was a woman in black. Her appearance could only be considered delicate, but her skin was like snow, especially with her head slightly lowered and her hair tied up.
Under the long hair, a section of neck and shoulders like cream is exposed, which even looks dazzling under the black clothes.
Qianye's heart moved and he said, "I only play black jack."
The young woman smiled seductively, and reached out to put her hand on Qianye's arm, but said in a low voice: "We have three pairs of black jacks."
This was the agreed code. Qianye nodded and said calmly: "Okay, take me to see it."
The woman in black led Qianye through another gambling hall, and then stepped into a quiet corridor. She suddenly stopped and pressed her hand on the wall. A secret door appeared on the flat wall. The woman in black
Pulling Qianye and quickly dodging in, there was a spiral staircase behind the secret door. After going down to the next floor, she pushed open a secret door on a section of empty wall.
At this time, Qianye found himself standing in a dark alley behind the casino. There were no street lights in the alley, and there were high walls on both sides. Perhaps this was not a passage in the first place, but a gap between two huge buildings. At this time,
The dark alley was quiet and dark, with only the lights coming from the casino windows adding a bit of brightness to the place.
"Follow me." The woman in black gestured to Qianye and walked towards the end of the alley first.
Qianye followed her for about ten minutes, passing through narrow streets and dark alleys, getting more and more remote, and finally came to an old two-story building that looked abandoned for a long time.
All the windows in this old building are dilapidated, and few are intact. However, there should be residents inside, and some windows still have a faint light. The door at the bottom of the building is ajar, and it should be a thick metal door.
Covered with rust.
The woman in black took a step back, stood beside Qianye, and said softly: "The person you are looking for is inside, go in."
Qianye glanced over there. There was no light at all on the first floor, and nothing could be seen through the crack in the door. A faint red light flashed deep in his eyes, and then he took a step forward and stood in front of the door.
He didn't push the door open immediately, but turned around and asked, "Can I just go in by myself?"
