The patriarch of the Iron Claw family, Leonardo da Vinci-Iron Claw is dying. As a werewolf, he should have an endless lifespan, but Texar's curse makes every member of the Iron Claw family less than 200 years old.
Knowing that he was about to die, he summoned all members of the family to prepare a will.
As one of the four major families in Coagulation City, the Iron Claw family must not be in chaos. He has already decided that the next clan leader will be succeeded by his eldest son, Bailumpu-Iron Claw.
Baylumpu is tall and handsome, and he is the son with the best fighting skills and the best control of the blood in his body among all his sons.
The werewolf blood gives them powerful vitality, unparalleled healing ability, and a lifespan far beyond that of ordinary people. Without Dexar's curse, they would have been able to live forever.
But werewolf blood is not without its shortcomings. Newborn werewolves often have bad tempers due to the restlessness of werewolf blood in their bodies, and may even lose their minds due to excessive anger.
The Iron Claw family and the Wolf Fang family fell out because of the gradual accumulation of conflicts between the younger generations, which eventually turned into mutual hostility between the two families.
The greatest advantage of Baylump is his rationality. He can always maintain restraint and will not get angry easily even after turning into a werewolf. In Da Vinci's mind, the Iron Claw family led by Baylump will become great again and become the leader of the entire Blood Coagulation City.
The most powerful family.
At this time, the members of the Iron Claw family arrived one by one, each one showing sadness and reluctance.
Da Vinci-Iron Claw looked at his heir, but couldn't find Balump for a while, so he asked: "Where is Balump?"
"Bailamp went hunting with Gotra of the Sniff family." Da Vinci's second son, William Ironclaw, answered.
Da Vinci stared at William, his expression getting more and more ugly, his body shaking violently with excessive anger, and he said in disbelief: "Bastard, how dare you!!!"
"Father, Bailumpu and the Lingxiu family are too close. If the Iron Claw family is really ruled by Bailumpu, I'm worried that the Iron Claw family will be annexed by the Lingxiu family sooner or later." William said condescendingly, looking at Da Vinci.
Da Vinci looked at the other children and asked: "You just watch William murder your eldest brother?"
"Father, at least William will not drive us away. I don't want to go to the backwaters of Ruishi and Meitaijian." A girl muttered in a low voice.
Other members also nodded in agreement with the girl's statement. Although William took the lead in this matter, they were actually behind it.
Because according to the tradition of the Iron Claw family, except for Baylumpu who can stay in Coagulation City to inherit all the wealth and power of Leonardo da Vinci, the other children of Baylumpu can only go to the villages and towns around Coagulation City. If they are lucky, they may become a mayor.
Chief, if you are unlucky, you won’t even have to be the village chief.
Besides, after leaving Blood Coagulation City, his identity will be different when he comes back.
Their descendants must become the private soldiers of the Iron Claw family, and like their uncle, they will die silently of old age in about one hundred to two hundred years, watching helplessly as Baylump's son takes everything away from them.
No one present was willing to face such an outcome, so they supported William's rise to power. Seeing that Baylump was plotted by William, they could only escape from the Blood Coagulation City in embarrassment.
"you!!!"
Da Vinci was shocked and angry, staring at his children.
As a vested person, he believes that the existence of tradition must have the meaning of adhering to tradition, and these children are violating the tradition of the Iron Claw family for generations.
"Father, you are getting old. You should rest early. From now on, the Iron Claw family will be left to me." William smiled at this time.
Others also smiled and nodded. Da Vinci wanted to summon his guards, but soon he found that all the guards had lost contact. He stared at William with an ugly face and said, "Have you made a deal with a vampire?"
"Father, please go quietly...and die." William turned and left, and finally closed the door tightly.
Da Vinci watched people go to the empty room, feeling filled with sadness and anger. He wanted to get out of his clothes and crush the rebellious son and rebellious daughter headed by William to death.
But he had no strength left, and in the end he could only look at the ceiling sadly, as if he saw that in the near future, the Iron Claw family would decline under William's rule.
…
There are many villages and towns outside Coagulation City. These villages and towns are ruled by Coagulation City. Most of the residents are humans, with a small number of werewolves, zombies and all vampires rejected by vampires mixed in.
Humans are the lowest class of people in Coagulation City, and most of them are engaged in manual labor. Above them are zombies. They are extremely powerful. After awakening their memories of their lives, they can often serve as guards and soldiers.
The four major families in Coagulation City have been recruiting zombies, and their treatment is much better than that of humans.
Therefore, many people hope that after they die, they will turn into zombies and become masters.
However, the probability of humans becoming zombies after death is not particularly high. About a hundred people die, only one person will be lucky enough to become a zombie and live again.
In this world, the most mainstream intelligent life forms are humans, zombies, werewolves, and vampires.
In addition to the mainstream intelligent life, there are also some rare intelligent life, such as wizards born among humans, zombie werewolves born among werewolves, and skeleton wizards that occasionally appear in mass graves...
Countless strange dark creatures form the main tone of this world, followed by a large number of ordinary creatures as well as monsters and ghosts.
If humans want to survive in this world, they can only rely on powerful werewolves or vampires.
In cities ruled by vampires, humans need to pay enough blood every month, while cities ruled by werewolves are slightly better and only require humans to hand over food and meat.
Therefore, there are many villages and towns ruled by Blood Coagulation City, far more than those ruled by vampires.
It's a pity that humans cannot be used as a fighting force, so once werewolves fight vampires, they still rely on werewolves. The strength of both sides is almost equal, and the gap does not change due to the number of humans.
Wuming and others sneaked into a village ruled by Coagulation City, and it took only one day to figure out the general situation of the entire world.
At this time, everyone stopped at the village chief's house and exchanged information while the village chief went to help buy meat.
"This world is a bit strange. There seem to be many messy genes and bloodlines hidden in the human body. I observed the werewolf in the village. The difference between him and humans is actually very small. Moreover, he has been eroded by a curse. It is estimated that only one or two are left.
Years of life." The real person said.
Wuming's observation and conclusion were similar to those of the true self. He guessed: "So there is something wrong with the humans here, and they are not even humans?"
"The evolution of human beings is inherently strange. The physical and genetic differences between humans in different worlds are even greater than the genetic differences between humans and monkeys in the same world. As long as they have humanity, they can actually be said to be humans. In this world
Werewolves and vampires are, in the final analysis, just subspecies of humans." Gao Shangong said calmly.
He looked through the window at the distant mountains outside the house and said solemnly: "The humans here are actually nothing to be afraid of. What is really scary are some of the legends passed down by people orally."
