1, Chapter 1
He woke up.
The ice crystal on the tongue began to melt, and the blood of the saint frozen in it flowed out. The blood brought him strength, so Arecio woke up after a long sleep.
Surrounded by a silence that had not existed even in the deepest night, he gradually regained his body, and a soft and slightly moist touch came from his fingertips. The first recovered touch triggered other senses, and he gradually smelled the light scent of flowers.
Fragrance, and listening to a certain heartbeat that is very close at hand.
Of course, this heartbeat cannot be his. He has been lying in the coffin for so many years, and the physiological functions of simulating human beings supported by his own will have stopped, leaving only an empty and dry body that belongs to his essence.
No body temperature, no heartbeat, immortality, just like a curse.
He is - a vampire.
This ancient racial name made his eyes tremble. In the silence, Arecio opened his eyes. His eyes were the deep rose color praised by the vampires. His short hair was scattered on the side of his head, as dark as midnight.
Under him, the moist and fresh Xingyue Roses were scattered one after another as if they had just been picked.
He stared at the darkness in front of him, seeming to be deep in thought. Suddenly, he blinked his eyelashes, then blinked again, and then...
He sneezed.
Who the hell put flowers in the coffin!
Arecio was not allergic to roses, but the vampire's overly sensitive sense of smell made it difficult for him to bear the fragrance of flowers in a small space. He tried to open the coffin to escape, groping around and finally found the switch. Before he could feel happy, a
The problem is right in front of us.
Does this coffin have a flip-top lid or a sliding lid?
"..."
Because he hates using coffins as bedding, Arecio has not slept in coffins for many years. At this moment, of course, he can't remember how to open it. Now most of his actions still follow the instincts when he woke up. After another sneeze, he
Memories gradually began to come back.
——About the reason why he is sleeping in this coffin.
Arecio touched his hand to the side and touched a slightly warm body. His fingertips could feel the coolness of the temple's special clothing, as well as the magnificent silk fabric woven from the expensive enchanted threads.
pattern, then he touched the sleeping man's cheek, and quickly stopped his hand reflexively.
"Boom!"
He retreated too quickly and knocked his head on the inner wall of the coffin.
Covering the place where he hit his head, Arecio's expression was very complicated in the darkness. He hesitated, and finally reached out his hand again and touched the saint's cheek.
It's warm, I can feel my breathing, and I heard my heartbeat before. This psychopath is still alive.
He still remembered how this lunatic used his domain to control him, pressed him into this coffin, and revealed to him the appearance of blood oozing from the seven holes after confiding the prophecy of doom to him. This lunatic maintained his stern appearance even when the conflict with him was most intense, and in the end
He was about to die but smiled.
【Sleep, the destiny I was born for.】
【Everything will be destroyed in the fire and rain, and you and I will get on the ark and sail to the golden new era. 】
Arecio sneezed again. He couldn't remember anymore and had to get out quickly.
He tightened the switch hard, thinking that whether it was a sliding cover or a flip cover, he would try it in either direction!
Pull down, nothing happens.
Push it up and it won't move.
Arecio is simply unbelievable. What kind of coffin is this? Or has he not slept for too long and coffins are outdated in the vampire clan? Are all your coffins so high-end? Are they even voice-activated?
He pushed it to the left angrily, and the coffin made a sound, and a ray of dim skylight fell in.
Arecio covered his eyes with his arms to adapt to the light. When he could see clearly, he would first go and see how this magical coffin was opened——
What the hell, the coffin actually has a screw top?!
Looking at the coffin board that was unscrewed at right angles to the main body, Arecio fell into a long silence.
This design…
Don’t you think it’s taking up a lot of space?
Thinking about the design of the coffin, Arecio felt some sights. It was indeed some sights. He had some kind of wonderful feeling of being watched by everyone. The last time he had this feeling was at the grand and luxurious venue of the vampire family.
At the dinner party, or when the Silver Crusaders were deployed in the temple to surround him.
He raised his head, expecting to see people, but instead he only saw a large number of metal aircraft suspended in mid-air. The front end of the translucent crystal reflected real-time images. These metal aircraft had streamlined flying wings for hovering. Among them
There was a child, who was like a curious child, slowly approaching him——
"Crack!"
The metal object fell apart in the air. After achieving this effect by guiding his mental power with his sight, Arecio looked at the wreckage that fell on the ground. He didn't know much about alchemy, but he could also tell that this object did not have any
It was equipped with some kind of attack device, and the overall structure was a bit strange. At least Arecio didn't find the shining magic crystal that usually serves as energy source.
His eyes slowly moved towards the other metal objects in the air. Beyond these things, Arecio was suddenly attracted by the scene behind him.
"……What?"
Banners draped in red and gold were fluttering in the wind, and below was a huge and brilliant garland arch. There was even a red carpet that extended all the way to the coffin. These objects came together to create an extraordinarily joyful and even joyful atmosphere.
Celebrating atmosphere.
The banner even wrote in common language that was much simplified in Arecio’s opinion——
[Warm congratulations to His Highness Prince Arecio for his recovery! Long live the great vampire clan!]
Arecio:???
Could it be that while he was sleeping for who knows how many years, the vampire race had ruled the world?
Today is the day that "Hitomi" is scheduled to broadcast live.
As an object of common admiration by the people of the Alliance, "Hitomi" who will definitely win the first place in every selection of people of the century is not alone. He hovers in the central area of the Dark Creature Conservation Center, accompanying everyone at the beginning of the new era.
The importance of the common growth of races can almost be called the "sun on the ground".
At the beginning of a new era, He provided knowledge and skills to the various races that gradually mixed together, allowing them to develop. But now that the Internet is fully developing, He himself is responsible for an extremely large information throughput, communicating with the outside world.
On the contrary, communication has become increasingly rare, and in recent years, there has been no response from technical staff at all.
Three days ago, "Tong" registered her own account on a social platform for the first time and updated her first message.
【I see you are about to wake up.】
So the whole alliance was in a state of excitement. Why did "Tong" suddenly register an account? Why was she suddenly willing to communicate with the outside world? Who was the person "Tong" mentioned?
There were many questions and speculations, but "Tong" did not respond to any of them. After a short silence, he posted the first video.
The video content is an extremely chaotic edit, with many intricate scenery and characters presented like a revolving door. Sometimes it is a mountain, sometimes it is a tree, sometimes it is a parent bird raising its chicks, or someone pulling out a bowstring.
After this seemingly chaotic video, "Hitomi" posted four words with flame effects.
【Before the Fire Rain.】
Now, the entire alliance was shocked! Their era began after the Great Rain of Fire. That Rain of Fire destroyed the achievements of most civilizations, and only a few remained. The video posted by "Hitomi" was actually about the Great Rain of Fire.
Before, an extremely distant era.
Two pieces of information are connected in series, so "Hitomi" means... is someone from the previous era about to wake up?!
What explosive news!
The alliance was in a state of excitement. Both the official and the private sector were beginning to use microscopes to dig out previous videos. The hint of "Hitomi" was very obvious, and soon someone reported that a certain scene gave people a slightly different feeling, and then a technology
Zhai was the first to point out the reason.
This tech geek called "My Plasma Wall Separation" pointed out that in the video released by "Hitomi", although there are many elements, these elements are basically played at a frame rate of 72 frames per second, and there is only one character.
Uniquely, his frame rate reaches 144 frames per second, which is undoubtedly a hint of "Hitomi"!
"I am separated" also thoughtfully cut out this video. In the video clip, a pale and gloomy young man with flaxen hair sat quietly on a chair. The surrounding light was very dim. He picked up the black tea and took a sip.
That's all.
The Alliance people wielding microscopes began to dig deeper. They identified the fangs exposed when the young man opened his mouth. Combined with the excessively pale skin, they concluded that his race should be the extinct vampire race. This race is only mentioned in the remaining documents.
The record was unexpectedly very popular. Before the incident of "Hitomi", there were a large number of fan works.
Living in this world where the brightness index is too high, who doesn't like vampires with small fangs, hating sunlight, and eating blood?
They also hate those dazzling lights, okay!
So after going through a lot of troubles, the people of the Federation became more and more enthusiastic and looked forward to the coming little cutie wholeheartedly. "Hitomi" was also very considerate and readily announced the identity of the other party.
【Prince, Arecio.】
Oops, received! We will hang a banner for the little cutie!
The dark flaxen hair is really beautiful, and the blue eyes are very interesting. Although this combination is not that stunning, the people of the Federation said that they would be satisfied if they could see a living vampire.
Everyone wants to see this resurrected little cutie as soon as possible, so when the official announcement has been made based on the information provided by "Hitomi" and the entire recovery process will be broadcast live by "Hitomi", even if the broadcast is not started, "Hitomi"
"The live broadcast room was also lively and crowded with people.
With high enthusiasm, the melon-eaters happily exchanged information, happily counted down, and commented on the official arrangements. Finally, the day of the live broadcast arrived.
When the coffin lid was opened, everyone in the audience held their breath.
The vampire with black hair and red eyes sat up, and some moonlight rose petals fell from his body. He looked a little dazed, but it did not hinder his vigilance. The camera that tried to get closer was exploded on the spot. He should have scolded the camera for being ignorant.
The audience was strangely silent.
The rooster crows always after silence——
【Ah ah ah ah ah, I am so good, so good! I died on the spot with black hair and red eyes!!!】
[Not the flaxen-haired guy in the video! But why am I so excited!]
[Please! Press me against the wall——]
Chapter completed!
