Chapter 163: The Fourth Progenitor X Type One Vampire Prototype
"You did well, Tiana."
Liana's tone carried a hint of approval.
"How did you find Number Five?"
"You said before that you bought a ticket to Itogami Island. I was a bit worried then, so I snuck into the airport, snuck onto the Duke of Aldia's plane, and arrived at Itogami Island."
"The Duke of Aldia? Dimitrie Vatler?"
Hearing the name of that famous star from the War King Domain, Liana's expression changed, but she immediately felt relieved.
After all, this was the Fourth Progenitor ordering her to retrieve his Vessel; she wouldn't be intimidated even if Vatler himself arrived.
However, she couldn't help but worry; the Kalyana Family was previously a Count of the War King Domain, and there was still a significant gap between them and that star who represented the will of the Forgotten War King.
"Did he come to Itogami Island too?"
Hearing this, Weierdiyana shook her head hurriedly.
"No, the Duke of Aldia only let the three Majesties board the plane. I originally wanted to follow the three Majesties, but only Majesty Number Five allowed me to follow."
"That's good."
Liana breathed a sigh of relief; this way, the chance for their Kalyana Family to revive would not be blocked.
"Since that's the case, then it's easy to handle."
Liana said in a low voice, while patting Weierdiyana on the shoulder.
"Tiana, you've been a huge help."
"Hehehe... it was nothing."
Weierdiyana revealed a silly smile.
At this moment, Liana stepped forward to the front of Number Five, looking at the young girl who was licking her ice cream.
"Number Five, the Primordial Majesty has awakened."
"Where?"
Number Five's tone paused, she slowly turned her head, and said in a flat tone.
"Probably by the side of the Void Witch, Nangong Nayue."
Upon hearing this, Liana forcibly suppressed her excitement and said.
"Lead the way."
Number Five said without the slightest fluctuation in her tone.
Great... Liana immediately revealed an expression of wild joy; she had never expected things to go this smoothly.
She suppressed the excitement in her heart, turned around, and said.
"Please come with me."
"She isn't going anywhere."
A rough male voice suddenly rang out.
Liana and Weierdiyana paused at the same time, and following the direction of the voice, they saw a middle-aged man wearing a black suit with a beard.
Arms dealer Zahaliyasi.
"It's you!!"
Seeing the enemy who killed her father, Weierdiyana immediately wanted to summon her Familiar.
At this moment, four Vessels wearing armor walked out from behind Zahaliyasi.
They were the Number Three and Number Four Vessels that Vatler had let go, as well as the Number One and Number Two Vessels he held himself.
Of course, the origins of these two Vessels were not exactly legitimate either; the Number One Vessel was originally held by the Kalyana Family.
And it was to obtain the Number One Vessel that Zahaliyasi started the Fourth War of the Homunculus, during which he conquered the territory of the Kalyana Family.
He snatched away the Number One Vessel that the Kalyana Family had been keeping on behalf of others.
A large part of the reason why their noble title was stripped before was because they lost the Number One Vessel; this was the decisive reason.
As for the Number Two Vessel, it was snatched from the hands of the Ninth Prince of the Extinct Dynasty, Iblisber Yagiz, before Su Nian arrived.
"Zahaliyasi..."
Liana bit her tongue, her eyes filled with murderous intent.
At this time, the people in the dessert shop saw that things were wrong; some called the police, but more simply ran away without even paying their bills.
"Customer, customer! Your bill hasn't been settled yet!!"
The clerk rushed out, looking at the customers who had all run away, looking as if they were about to collapse.
At this moment, Zahaliyasi smiled as he looked at Liana in front of him and gestured with his chin toward his subordinates.
A Hungui stepped out carrying a suitcase, opened it, and poured a large amount of 10,000-yen bills onto the dessert shop table.
"This is 40 million yen in cash as a small apology."
Liana reached out to stop Weierdiyana and said in a low voice.
"What do you mean?"
Seeing that Weierdiyana did not make a move, Zahaliyasi said with a full smile.
"Kalyana, I don't think there is too much conflict between us."
"Bastard!"
Weierdiyana almost went berserk because of this sentence.
The man who slaughtered all their blood relatives and friends was actually saying to their faces that there was no conflict between the two sides.
Simply inhuman!
"What do you mean?"
Liana held Weierdiyana back, looking at the three Vessels behind Zahaliyasi with apprehension.
"I have no other intentions; I merely wish to purchase the Vessel in your hands."
Zahaliyasi raised the corners of his mouth, lifted the briefcase in his hand, and said with a face full of smiles.
"Thirty billion Euros. As long as you agree, I will pay immediately. At the same time, if you need it, I can also return the original territory of the Kaliyana Duke in full."
"Liana, as long as you kill him, these thirty billion Euros, as well as those Vessels and the territory of the Kalyana Family, will all be yours."
Watching Liana being so indecisive, Su Nian could no longer bear to watch; he had let Liana come to wait for the hare not just to retrieve his Vessel.
It was even more to see how the combat power of Liana, who had undergone preliminary testing and been granted the Fourth Progenitor X-Type Vampire Prototype bloodline, fared, and whether the abilities of the new bloodline could be unleashed.
The other Three True Ancestors, every blood descendant of a True Ancestor, or any vampire who has inherited the bloodline of a True Ancestor, possesses their own unique abilities.
The First Progenitor's D-Type Vampire's mistification ability.
The Second Progenitor's G-Type Vampire's ability to plunder the Familiars of others.
The Third Progenitor's T-Type Vampire's ability to transform Familiars into weapons and change their appearance.
These are all quite excellent bloodline abilities, and as the Fourth Progenitor, Su Nian naturally did not want to fall behind; it just so happened that he had been researching the Blacklight Virus, researching the life factors of other Phantom Beasts, and studying the System Tree for so long.
Su Nian considered himself to have gained some results, so he planned to put together the Fourth Progenitor X-Type bloodline to play around with.
Of course, the so-called X-Type Vampire bloodline is entirely a variant of the Little Garden vampire bloodline.
It is a brand-new bloodline that Su Nian re-integrated after combining the specific experimental processes and principles of how the Three True Ancestors transformed from the Heavenly Tribe into vampires and obtained Familiars.
The Heavenly Tribe of this world is, in fact, not much different from the vampires of Little Garden; both possess Magic: Divine Power that surpasses ordinary people, and the Heavenly Tribe possesses an ageless and immortal vitality, as well as a resilient body and psychokinesis.
But just like the vampires of Little Garden, the Heavenly Tribe of this world will also have their physical tissues collapse and turn into ash the moment they are exposed to the sun.
And the Three True Ancestors passed Cain's experiments, transformed from the Heavenly Tribe into True Ancestors, thereby harboring Familiars and overcoming the weakness of fearing sunlight.
And according to Su Nian's research, to be precise, the vampires of this world have not actually overcome the weakness of fearing sunlight.
What truly allows them to ignore sunlight is the Familiar fused into their bodies; it is precisely the Familiar parasitic on the vampire that allows them to fear no sunlight.
Because the life of a Familiar is completely bound to the host; if the host dies, the Familiar will also die.
Therefore, the Familiar will absolutely not let the host die.
And because a Familiar is actually a magic aggregate with an independent will, the essence of a Familiar is actually a mass of magic with a will; therefore, no matter how a vampire summons a Familiar, a portion of the Familiar's magic will always remain in the vampire's blood.
Coupled with the fact that the Familiar will not let the host die, the Familiar remaining in the vampire's blood will spontaneously repel sunlight, preventing the sunlight from truly harming the host.
And because of the Saint Annihilation, in fact, the Familiar has already been tightly bound to the vampire; even the lowest-class Hungui who cannot summon Familiars have Familiars existing in their blood.
It is just that they are too weak to be summoned, only able to help them overcome sunlight.
However, this cannot be considered an absolute inability to overcome sunlight; sooner or later, when the Familiars in the Hungui's blood continue to weaken until they can no longer help the host reject the damage of sunlight.
The Hungui will once again begin to fear sunlight.
It is just that this day is very far off; by the time that day arrives, it is estimated that the Familiars in this world will have almost all died out.
But how could Su Nian leave this flaw? After Su Nian's adjustments.
In fact, the connection between the X-Type Vampire's Familiar and them is even closer, or rather, the Familiar has already become a part of the X-Type Vampire.
It will no longer become weaker due to inheritance; the Familiar's magic is the host's magic, and as the host grows, the Familiar will also grow.
Furthermore, the essence of the Familiar is a magic aggregate with autonomous consciousness; in fact, it is not on the System Tree, and it conforms to life formed by the aggregation of powerful forces, which can be completely defined as a Dragon Species.
It is just not as powerful as a true Pure-blooded Dragon Species; calling it a Dragon Species clearly lowers the status of the Dragon Species.
But this does not mean it cannot try to measure up.
The vampires of Little Garden were created by the World Dragon Kurma and were a race that once served as guardians of the System Tree.
And the trace left behind as the former guardians of the System Tree is being granted the ability to control shadows; if a vampire of Little Garden reaches the highest position of the System Tree, they will obtain the Gift of the Dragon's Shadow.
As a Familiar that measures up to a Dragon Species, it might as well have a Shadow of the Beast.
Based on this idea, Su Nian bound the Familiar and the X-Type Vampire's shadow together.
An X-Type Vampire can control their own shadow and fuse the Familiar with their own shadow, obtaining the ability to Avatar as a Familiar.
Of course, this is just the ability Su Nian has currently designed; how it will specifically perform in battle and whether any accidents will occur, etc.
And after Avatar-ing as a Familiar, how much can it enhance the Familiar? Can it fuse multiple Familiars at once?
These are all things Su Nian wants to experiment with.
And the best way to experiment is to have a real battle; after all, many things cannot be tested purely in a laboratory.
Moreover, the complete fusion of the bloodline also requires a period of time.
This is the reason why Su Nian only now let Liana come here to test her combat power.
