On the 50th floor of the Woolworth Building in Manhattan, there were more than thirty Blood Breeds gathered here. They kept their wings but unconsciously revealed their fangs.
On the other hand, the leaders of the Blood Clan seemed to be humans, and they stood beside a female.
The cool queen-like figure sat on the main seat and quietly looked out the window at the most prosperous city in America.
The Woolworth Building was very close to the financial circle. To the south was the Stock Exchange and the World Trade Center.
To the north was the Federal Building, and not far to the east was the Municipal Building. The United Nations Headquarters was also nearby.
From here, one could see all the landmarks in Manhattan. It was an excellent location.
There were many offices in this building, but the entire building belonged to the Blood Breeds. It was given to Diana by a fourth-generation Blood Breed who was a real estate tycoon in New York.
No one would have thought that the Blood Breeds' base camp was in the most prosperous area in the country, surrounded by the United Nations Headquarters and the Federal Building.
Listening to the Blood Breeds report to her, Diana only nodded slightly or waved her hand to deal with them.
These thirty or so Blood Breeds with sharp fangs were all sixth-generation Blood Breeds, transformed from professional Hunters. They couldn't hide their fangs very well. Unless they kept their mouths shut, their sharp fangs would be exposed when they opened their mouths.
But this was nothing. It was just that their fangs were longer and sharper. There were all kinds of weird people these days. Even if they were seen, they wouldn't attract attention.
For the time being, the sixth-generation Blood Breeds were the lowest.
Starting from Queen Diana, there were only three third-generation vampire dukes in the entire United States, and they were the three hunters she had personally transformed back in Siberia.
Fourth-generation Blood Breeds were Counts. Other than the hunters who were the direct descendants of the Queen, most of the fourth-generation Blood Breeds were people with real power in the major cities in America. They were either big families that controlled a state or a city, top tycoons, politicians, or leaders of organizations.
Fifth-generation Blood Breeds were Viscounts. Excluding the direct descendants of the Queen, there were only some smaller families, tycoons, politicians, and scholars in the major cities. They were usually under the jurisdiction of the Blood Breeds. The direct descendants of the Queen didn't manage them directly.
The sixth-generation Blood Breeds were called Barons. This was just a polite title. In fact, they were only slightly higher than the blood slaves. Most of them were liaison personnel, intelligence personnel, and combat personnel. They were mainly professional bodyguards, assassins, hunters, explorers, mercenaries, street bosses, and some capable people who mingled in the streets.
As for the blood thralls, they were called reserve-duty Blood Breeds on the surface. They were the direct descendants and relatives of the original fifth or sixth generation Blood Breeds. Due to certain circumstances, they had learned of the existence of the Blood Breeds. Even though they greatly admired the power of the Blood Breeds and wanted to join the Blood Breeds, they did not have the qualifications to be converted. They could only serve the Blood Breeds and wait for their contributions to be enough to receive the favor of a certain Viscount or Baron and obtain The Embrace.
In fact, each and every one of them was under surveillance and had been implanted with a blood toxin that spread faster than blood cancer. Any medical treatment was useless against this toxin. Those who were poisoned could only live for two years at most. It was an incurable disease.
The poison had no effect on the Blood Breeds, so the only way to survive was to become a Blood Breeds, and the poison would disappear on its own.
If they were lucky enough, they could be chosen by a fifth generation vampire and even become a sixth generation vampire. If they were unlucky and received The Embrace of a sixth generation vampire, they would become a seventh generation vampire.
According to the Blood Breeds' hierarchy, Diana guessed that a seventh generation vampire might not be able to hide their identity. Their teeth, skin color, and even bat wings might expose their identity as a vampire. Their appearance would be worlds apart from humans. In addition, sixth generation vampires already somewhat hated sunlight. Seventh generation vampires would definitely be afraid of sunlight, and all kinds of weaknesses might be exposed. So until now, they had strictly limited the birth of lower level vampires. That was why there were reserve-duty Blood Breeds.
Of course, there were classes below the blood thralls, and that was an even larger group of people. Although they worked for the Blood Breeds, they themselves knew nothing. They did not even know that there were Blood Breeds in the world. They were not even as good as the blood thralls. They were just pawns under the Blood Breeds' use of power and wealth.
In just a few days, the number of Blood Breeds had reached as high as three thousand! Most of them were sixth generation vampires.
Their sphere of influence encompassed the entire United States, and they had laid a foundation in the upper echelons of various big cities. They could infiltrate the super families that influenced a country or even the world at any time.
The power of the Blood Breeds was expanding every day. This powerful supernatural force was rapidly eroding the ruling class of the United States.
It had gradually begun to infiltrate the military from the political situation, and many political families had become vassals of the Blood Breeds.
On the other hand, in accordance with the True Ancestor's request, the elites of major academic institutions, research institutions, and research-oriented universities were also being pulled into the Blood Breeds' camp.
The Blood Breeds' research power was also rapidly increasing, especially in the fields of life science, medicine, and biology.
This rapid development would continue until CANC discovered it.
…
Stanford University, San Francisco, California.
A fourth generation vampire and two fifth generation vampires walked into this beautiful campus.
The fourth generation vampire was called Ferris, and he was the honorary president of this university. The two fifth generation vampires were also his students and had doctorates.
They were ordered to develop their descendants in this world-renowned research-oriented university. For this reason, they had made a list of scholars. Three of them could be converted into fifth generation vampires, and the rest could be converted into sixth generation vampires.
"These three professors happen to be working on a project in the Heisen Physics Laboratory. I'll go find them personally." Ferris handed the two students a list and said, "I've already informed the people on the list to wait in Classroom S13. Nominally, it's your biochemistry class. If anyone doesn't come, just give up! They're not that important graduate students anyway. "
The two students gladly accepted the task and walked to a large classroom in a refined manner.
Classroom S13 was a spacious classroom with twenty-five graduate students. They were invited to attend the joint lecture of two famous scholars. It was said that there were very few places, and it wasn't a public lecture.
Most of the people on the invitation list were present, and only a few people didn't attend this lecture.
They were all the geniuses of this university, elites of all major disciplines. Every one of them had published excellent papers in famous academic journals, participated in a certain research, and achieved major results. Some had even won world-renowned academic awards.
Not only that, this list selected people who were crazy about research and academics. It even required that their backgrounds were as simple as possible and that they had no unknown whereabouts.
After all, the selection of research-type Blood Breeds was different from that of politicians and tycoons. They didn't need to have a lot of power; they only needed to study diligently.
If they were connected to some hidden national organizations or secret societies, it would instead bring some trouble to the Blood Breeds.
Everyone's time was precious, and the two fifth-generation Blood Breeds didn't make them wait.
Seeing the two scholars enter the classroom and lock the door, no one doubted it. After all, this wasn't a public lecture.
"Let me introduce myself. My name is Kenneth. Friends in the field of biochemistry might know me."
The other also introduced himself. "My name is Brian. First, please allow me to read a list."
He took out a simple piece of A4 paper with 27 names listed on it.
As he called out the names one by one, the corresponding people below raised their hands.
Of course, there were also those who didn't come. After a name was called out, no one answered for a long time.
Brian expressionlessly crossed out the name with a red pen.
Then, he called out another name. "Mary Styler …"
A Chinese beauty lowered her head and raised her hand, indicating that it was her.
Brian was stunned. He and Kenneth looked at each other. They didn't call out names in the usual sense. Instead, they carefully observed every graduate student.
According to the information, Mary Styler was a standard Caucasian. They had investigated her beforehand, so they knew this very well.
But now, there was a Chinese beauty in the seat. Although she was quite good-looking and had dyed blonde hair, she obviously didn't match the information. She wasn't the person they were looking for at all.
"Miss, are you impersonating me?" Brian looked at her coldly.
Everyone looked over, and the Chinese beauty was very embarrassed.
She was indeed an international student in this school, the daughter of a wealthy family in China. She and Mary were roommates. Because Mary had left San Francisco for an urgent matter, and she was curious about this secret lecture, she sneaked into this classroom with Mary's ID.
The classroom was located in a research center in the school. Ordinary students couldn't enter, and they weren't allowed to.
She didn't expect the two lecturers to call out her name so seriously. She couldn't even get away with it.
"I … I …" She was at a loss.
Brian lowered his head and crossed out Mary's name. He said, "Get out!"
His tone was harsh and merciless. He had an arrogant personality to begin with, and after becoming a member of the Blood Clan, he thought that he was better than humans. Therefore, there was a faint contempt in his eyes.
"Isn't it just a lecture? What are you so arrogant for? "
The beauty's face was red, and she was about to cry. She was a little angry at Brian's indifference, but she still ran out of the classroom in the end.
This was just a small episode. Brian continued to call out names and crossed out a total of three names.
Beside him, Kenneth said, "We'll officially start the lecture now …"
"But we're not talking about the so-called biochemistry …"
Everyone was stunned. Many of them were not graduate students in the field of biochemistry. If the dean hadn't sent them the invitation, they wouldn't have wasted their time listening to this lecture.
Even so, there were still three people who didn't come.
Now that they heard that the lecture was different from what they had agreed on, they were all stunned.
A bespectacled graduate student raised his hand and said, "Dr. Kenneth, are we going straight to the Q&A session? I'm researching anti-cancer technology. I have a question about virus reproduction, invasion of normal cells, and causing cancer. "
"You're Bob, right? Wait a minute. The cancer problem you mentioned, or even all the incurable diseases, is no longer a problem, "Kenneth said.
The moment he said this, all the students in the fields of life sciences, medicine, and biochemistry were stunned.
Had Dr. Kenneth gone mad?
Bob said in astonishment, "Why would you have such a thought? All the incurable diseases? Could it be that you've discovered a panacea? "
The idea of a panacea had been brought up several decades ago. However, that was just blind worship toward the strong antibiotic function back then. They thought that drugs like penicillin could cure all viruses. Of course, this was an extremely ignorant thought. However, the concept of a panacea had been left behind, becoming an existence in the dreams of some scholars. They thought that in the future, medical science would eventually develop something like a panacea.
"Panacea? Perhaps you can understand it this way … "
Kenneth smiled mysteriously, revealing his fangs that he had restrained but still appeared very sharp.
"It … is my blood!"
