Chapter 184: Turn Your Face
"Lord Duke, the price of starting the first embrace is too high, right?" One of the counts stood up and looked at the duke in the shadow on the throne with an unbelievable expression.
"I just gave you such a method. As for how to choose, it is up to you to decide." The duke in the shadow's voice was flat, but the earls did not have any questioning voices.
The way to regain the first embrace on the parchment requires absorbing the life essence of ten lower-level vampires, or watering oneself with the blood of a thousand humans.
These two methods, no matter which one they are, seem to violate the own principles of the Secret Party.
If they do, then they are the same as the Demon Party. If they don't do it, they can only wait to die!
This choice put them in a dilemma.
"The method has been given to you. I will give you one day to think about it, and there is not much time left for you." The voice of the duke in the shadows became more and more gloomy, making every count extremely silent.
Zhang Ziling even discovered that some counts had a bit of madness in their eyes!
Under the threat of their lives, they are about to shake their beliefs.
"Go away."
As soon as the Duke's voice fell, the earls on the round table turned into bats and quickly disappeared in place.
Soon, the eleven Marquis including Marquis Bin and the Duke of Shadow were left in this hall.
"Marquis Bin," after all the counts left the venue, a marquis on the throne said, "Now you can talk about the reason why you brought this human with the strength of a marquis here."
"Marquis Bud," Marquis Bin smiled slightly at the marquis, and then said, "Don't you think Zhang Ziling is very suitable to be the marquis we are missing?"
"Absurd!" The Marquis scolded angrily: "He is a human being, how can he become the master of the clan throne?"
"Humans? Humans are not static!" After hearing Marquis Bard's roar, Marquis Bin smiled slightly: "Aren't most of us here changed from humans to vampires?"
"As long as the Duke is willing to embrace Zhang Ziling for the first time, then with Zhang Ziling's qualifications, it is not impossible to become a Duke!"
"And the Vampire Duke,
Don't you have the right to be the master of the clan throne? "The Marquis of Bin talked eloquently: "Besides, the Duke has only regained his strength soon, and we urgently need to replenish our strength. "
"So I think it's the best choice to embrace Zhang Ziling for the first time! Lord Duke, what do you think?" Marquis Bin looked at the Duke of Shadow on the dark red throne again.
From the beginning to the end, Bin never thought that Zhang Ziling would refuse. In his eyes, no one could refuse the temptation of absolute power.
And becoming a vampire duke is equivalent to having absolute power!
In this world, there are very few who can threaten the existence of the Duke!
Therefore, in Bin's heart, he even thought that Zhang Ziling should be grateful that he gave him such a great gift!
"A first hug for Zhang Ziling?" The Shadow Duke pondered for a while, then the corner of his mouth twitched, "It seems to be a good choice."
"However, does this human really have the strength of a marquis?"
At this time, another Vampire Marquis opened his mouth to question, in their hearts, no matter whether Zhang Ziling has the strength of a Marquis or not, they do not want Zhang Ziling to accept the Duke's first embrace.
The one who pressed on their heads, one is enough.
"Zhang Ziling alone destroyed the vineyard where the four brothers of the Demon Party, the Earls, were seated. Couldn't he be able to do such a thing to prove that he has the strength of a Marquis?" Marquis Bin raised his eyebrows slightly and asked back with a smile.
"Did you see with your own eyes that this human being killed the four earls? Maybe it was with the help of other people? There are quite a few demon hunters who have been active in this city recently. Those guys are not very strong, but they can deal with ours. There's a lot of stuff!"
"If we're not careful, we might even be killed by an ordinary human being. What's the point of killing four earls by one person?"
Another earl opened his mouth to refute Marquis Bing, and he didn't want another duke to come out.
"The marquis who died among us before was killed by the demon hunter named Van Helsing?" The marquis said with a look of disdain: "Then if Van Helsing meets me, I will let him draw his gun. If you don't have time, let his head run away from home!"
"So, you want to try Zhang Ziling's strength?" Marquis Bin narrowed his eyes, and said with a slight tick, "How about we make a bet?"
"Do you think I will personally take action against a human?" The marquis smiled contemptuously and said, "Actually, you can fight this human, and we can naturally see the true level of this human."
"If you have the strength of a marquis, you will know as soon as you shoot."
"I say"
At this moment, Zhang Ziling yawned, and his lazy words interrupted the quarrel of the marquis, attracting everyone's attention.
"Don't you really think that I will accept the Duke's first embrace?"
"Human, you are too arrogant! How important is the Duke's first embrace? You actually treat this sacred thing with such a disdainful attitude!"
Zhang Ziling's remarks directly shifted the discussion among the marquis about whether to give Zhang Ziling the first embrace to the question of Zhang Ziling's arrogant attitude!
"Human, do you know what you are talking about?" The scarlet flashes in the eyes of the duke on the dark red throne, stared at Zhang Ziling and asked indifferently.
"Don't you think that I really don't know the secret that after accepting the first embrace, I will never be able to resist the will of the vampire bestowed upon the first embrace?" Zhang Ziling raised his legs, leaning on the throne and looking at the duke , "What's more, I have told you that I have the strength of a marquis?"
"What do you mean?" After hearing Zhang Ziling's words, the expressions of the vampires changed, and even the expression of the guest who invited Zhang Ziling to the meeting became ugly.
Zhang Ziling's attitude is too arrogant!
A mere human being present at the top of the Secret Party is completely different from the ordinary members of the Secret Party!
"It doesn't make any sense," Zhang Ziling said lightly, "After listening to your so-called high-level meeting, I have also confirmed one thing."
"Actually, strictly speaking, the Secret Party is just a tool for you, a tool that can be discarded after it is used up. Am I right?"
As soon as Zhang Ziling's words came out, the expressions of all the marquis changed greatly, and even the duke, who had always been indifferent, his expression turned gloomy instantly.
"You can also make up lies abandoned by God? Use the talisman engraved on the back of each secret party member's hand to quietly draw energy from them to strengthen yourself."
"This kind of energy that benefits others and gains for nothing, you should absorb it, it should be very cool, right?"
Zhang Ziling's words made all the marquis look gloomy to the extreme, and the atmosphere in the entire conference hall suddenly solidified!
