[Inherent Accumulation Time].
That referred to the sum of all the time an individual had experienced from birth to the present.
If the history of mankind referred to all the history that human beings had experienced from ancient times to the present, then the inherent accumulation time was all the history that a person had experienced.
Experience, memory, growth, change, these things that an individual had in their life were inherent accumulation time.
The Vampire True Ancestor could be proud of their great power precisely because they were the oldest vampires. Their immortal life allowed them to accumulate a huge amount of inherent accumulation time as the source of power.
That was not a strange thing.
No matter which world it was, as long as there was mystery, then, after a long time, the mystery would become powerful. That was a matter of fact.
Just like in Chaldea's world, Gods were far more powerful than the modern world. Fantasy Breed was comparable to magic after surviving for a long time. Even some items left behind from Gods and ancient times would become irreplaceable ancient mysterious and extremely precious magic materials. The more years they had, the stronger they would be.
Because the True Ancestors were the oldest, they had accumulated a large amount of accumulated time in their blood, which was why they were so powerful. It was the same for the other vampires. The longer they lived, the more powerful they would be. The act of sucking blood was also to absorb the accumulated time of others, storing it in their blood. It was the same principle for members of the same race to devour each other.
Therefore, people called the inherent accumulation time of vampires "Blood Memory."
The Fourth True Ancestor, as an artificial True Ancestor, did not have enough inherent accumulation time to have power above the other True Ancestors.
For that reason, the Feast of Light was born.
"In the land where the Feast of Light unfolds, all individuals, whether human or Demons, will gradually become a kind of fake vampire."
Rozen explained one by one in front of Zaharias.
"They will gradually lose their memory and eventually lose their mind because after being infected and become fake vampires, their inherent accumulation time will begin to be usurped."
The usurped inherent accumulation time will flow to the center of the ritual, that is, the twelve bodies of the Fourth True Ancestor.
Through this method, the Matrix began to accumulate the inherent accumulation time, which allowed the Mana to skyrocket.
"The reason why the Chosen Ones need both a base and a territory to qualify is because the Fourth True Ancestor requires substantial accumulation time. Only by having enough subjects, holding a ceremony in their own territory and offering their subjects' accumulation time to the Fourth True Ancestor would they qualify for the banquet."
Therefore, the Karjana family who had lost their territory was not recognized as the Elector. Even Rozen was not recognized in the beginning. It was only after Jia Da vouched for him that he was recognized.
In other words …
"The Fourth True Ancestor is a Dreamy Vampire who can consume the memories of others to replace the memories of blood that he needs."
Rozen glanced at Agrora beside him, then glanced at the skeletons lying in the coffins.
"The reason why the Fourth True Ancestor is regarded as a non-existent urban legend and no one can confirm his existence is because the memories of others related to him have been taken away, right?"
That was the only explanation that made sense.
"The Ordiaru Principality in the Warlord's Domain, the Eight Northern States of the Empire of Extinction, the Nilepsi Autonomous Domain, and the old Southeast of Itogami Island. The Vampire Infection outbreak in these places is precisely because the ceremony was held in each of these places, causing the inherent accumulation time of the subjects to flow to the Matrix. Being turned into a vampire is just an illusion. It's more like a designated target. Those who are turned into vampires will gradually lose their memories, their rationality, their inherent accumulation time taken away, and finally go insane."
Rozen explained calmly.
"Of course, it's not just those who are turned into vampires. Even those who have come into contact with the Fourth True Ancestor will have their memories taken away, right?"
If that was not the case, then there was no explanation for why the Fourth True Ancestor could retain the title of Dreamy Vampire.
The reason why Agrora's Mana suddenly skyrocketed was because the ceremony was held in the old Southeast, causing the inherent accumulation time of the twenty-eight thousand people who were infected with the Vampire Infection to flow to her.
"Exactly."
Zacharias nodded solemnly and opened his arms, as if he wanted to show the entire old Southeast.
"Those who are turned into fake vampires will not die, and the infection will also stop in a few days. That's because the Fourth True Ancestor doesn't seek life, but memories."
In light of this, whether it was the Ordiaru Principality in the Warlord's Domain, the Eight Northern States of the Empire of Extinction, the Nilepsi Autonomous Domain, or the old Southeast, all those who were turned into fake vampires would return to normal in a few days.
It was just that when the time came, they would lose their important memories and become walking corpses.
In some ways, this was more terrifying than death.
Still, it had to be said that the Fourth True Ancestor would obtain an unprecedented amount of inherent accumulation time due to the sacrifices of these people.
Just think about it, how many subjects were turned into fake vampires in each of the Warlord's Domains?
Not to mention the other territories, just the old southeast region alone had a population of 28,000.
Even if each of these twenty-eight thousand people was only given three days of inherent accumulation time, that was more than two hundred and thirty years of accumulation time.
There were about two million and six hundred thousand ordinary citizens living in the Nilepsi Autonomous Domain, and it was said that about fifteen percent of them had been turned into fake vampires due to the large-scale infection. The inherent accumulation time they provided was even greater.
This, in addition to the inherent accumulation time provided by the Ordiaru Principality in the Warlord's Domain and the Eight Northern States of the Empire of Extinction, would add up to a terrifying amount of accumulation time.
Just how powerful would the Fourth True Ancestor become with all this accumulated time?
Wouldn't it be able to easily surpass the Dragon Vein?
With such power, such time, and such blood memories, just how terrifying would the Fourth True Ancestor become with his twelve most powerful familiars?
Just look at Zaharias and you'll know that.
"This one is just an arms dealer, but after obtaining the power of the Fourth True Ancestor's familiars, I can easily defeat the terrifying vampires of the Warlord's Domain and the Empire of Extinction, and this is before all twelve of them are gathered."
Zacharias revealed an infatuated smile.
"Don't you think it's a good deal to exchange for such a powerful weapon with only memories?"
These words made Agrora's expression completely stiffen.
After all, Zacharias' eyes were filled with greed and ambition when he looked at Agourola.
"I want to ask you one more time, Your Excellency Nangong."
Zacharias said.
Unfortunately …
"Unfortunately, I don't think there's a need to talk to you anymore. If you're going to say 'you really don't want to consider selling your familiars to me' or something like that, then I advise you not to waste your energy."
Rozen replied with a smile, but the ruthlessness in his tone was obvious.
"… Is that so?"
The smile on Zaharias's face disappeared.
"Then there's no other way."
With that, a shocking amount of magic power surged from Zacharias' body.
"You should have done this a long time ago."
Rozen curled his lips into a smile, and power surged from his body as well.
A conflict was about to break out.
