Chapter 2912: When Night Falls (41)
Janna shook her head. She wasn't the type who liked myths and legends; she was more interested in pop music and comics. Her brother liked audio equipment and motorcycles. As for the concept of vampires, it basically stayed at the stage of villainous monsters in video games.
But she soon realized what this question was referring to. She thought for a while and said, "Do you think those legends aren't just legends, and that some of them are true?"
Janna immediately went through all the information she had about vampires in her memory, but unfortunately, she didn't really know much and didn't have much useful information.
She originally wanted to ask Batman for help, but felt that Batman should be very busy now, so she sent a text message to Cyborg, asking him to send all the information about vampires he could find, even if it was just folk rumors, as long as it was related to vampires, she wanted it.
Cyborg's ability to collect information was very strong. A few minutes later, he sent a large pile of things, and they were all sorted and organized.
Aquaman was actually a little curious about why Janna was absent-minded all the way, but looking at Zan's silent state, he felt that the siblings should have encountered something, so he didn't disturb them.
During the gaps in her thinking, Janna also discovered that everyone in the Justice League was very tolerant of the two of them. Batman didn't pursue what was wrong with Zan, Superman was curious but didn't ask, and Wonder Woman even comforted herself before leaving.
Going back to Atlantis with Aquaman was originally to act as a messenger and security guard, but she was absent-minded the whole time, and Aquaman didn't say anything.
Janna actually had some dissatisfaction before because she and her brother were insignificant in the Justice League and always did some small errands. For example, this time, because they walked on the seabed the whole way, there was basically no danger. Batman let them protect Aquaman, which was actually just finding something for them to do.
But now she felt that this was also very good. They were not perfect colleagues, but close to perfect family members.
Because she was too worried about her brother, Janna's brain was firing on all cylinders. She quickly browsed through all the information and almost instantly grasped the key.
Pure-blood nobility? Do vampires also have pure-blood disputes?
Janna saw this concept in the synopsis of a romance novel about vampires.
The male lead of this novel is a third-generation vampire, and the female lead is a young vampire who accidentally got bitten and has been carefully hiding her identity.
Then, very unsurprisingly, all vampires strongly opposed this marriage, the reason being that if they combined and had offspring, the impure bloodline in the female lead would lead to a decline in the offspring's power.
Janna didn't have the patience to read the dog-blood story behind it. She instinctively felt that the legend of this bloodline had some basis.
Modern humans have realized the disadvantages of incest, and almost all countries have legislated against incest, especially between biological brothers and sisters, because children born in this situation have a high probability of defects.
But if vampires divide their strength based on the richness of their bloodline, then the more incestuous the bloodline, the richer it is, so does it become more powerful?
Then if you turn descendants through the ritual of embrace, will the descendants turned by vampires with richer bloodlines be stronger?
Janna felt that her deduction made sense.
Then combined with the soul pollution theory, is it that the richer the vampire's bloodline, the more evil the descendants turned?
Janna always felt that something was wrong.
Janna's understanding of evil was a bit different from others because she felt that any extreme good and evil meant irrationality, and irrationality was roughly equal to lowering intelligence.
For example, an extremely kind person cannot see anyone suffering at all. As long as others appear pitiful, he can't help but give everything he has to them. Isn't such a person easy to be deceived?
Evil is the same. When Janna realized that the inside ghost was actually the Flash, she thought that the Flash actually had many more efficient ways to be this inside ghost. Not to mention never being discovered, at least he could drag it out longer.
If Hal hadn't become so miserable, everyone might have consumed at least two or three more days. In Janna's view, the Flash's action against Green Lantern definitely had intentional components. He was deliberately trying to torture Green Lantern.
It was precisely this evil thought that led to his lack of rationality, and he failed to act as an inside ghost with the highest efficiency.
Assuming that the purer the vampire's bloodline, the more evil it is, then wouldn't the higher-ups of the vampires be lower in IQ? Then how can this race develop?
Janna couldn't believe the conclusion she deduced. If this were the case, wouldn't the Vampire King be the biggest fool in the world?
If so, the reason why the soul of this stranger in front of her could be so rational might be because the one who bit him was not some high-level vampire.
Or there is another possibility. Janna recalled another legend, that is, the more generations of vampires, the weaker the power. For example, the fourth generation is much weaker than the third generation, and the fifth generation is weaker than the fourth generation.
This is actually quite scientific. If one generation is stronger than the next, the universe would have been destroyed by their entropy increase long ago.
Janna deduced that the power that the embrace ritual can bestow on the next generation of vampires is limited, so there will be a situation where one generation is not as good as the next.
If her brother's soul pollution is more serious, it means he might have been bitten by an older vampire, and this stranger is fine, maybe because the vampire who bit him was younger.
Seeing Janna's expression, Schiller knew that she might have guessed part of the truth.
Moonlight Schiller witnessed a vampire attack after coming to this world. Vampires premeditatedly attacked Zatanna, and the leader embraced Zatanna.
However, the result was naturally not unexpected. Several vampires were killed by Schiller, and Zatanna, who had just been transformed into a vampire, was chased by Schiller all the way, and finally ran to Constantine.
Schiller keenly discovered that the vampires he slaughtered had obvious differences. Some looked not much different from humans, and knew how to run after being slashed by him, but some were very crazy, and the more serious the injury, the more like a lunatic.
Then theoretically, those who look more normal are the strong ones, but in fact, the opposite is true. Those who look more normal are weaker. Instead, those who go crazy can use all kinds of fancy magic.
At that time, Schiller realized that although they were all vampires, there were differences between individuals. The stronger the power, the less enough the brain, and the more enough the brain, the less strong the power.
Schiller didn't know how this race developed like this, but anyway, so far, he hadn't found any vampire who was both civil and military.
For example, Zatanna, Zatanna has always been relatively sober. Finding that she couldn't deal with Schiller, she ran away quickly, running to Constantine's place in a familiar way, instead of having to fight Schiller hard on the spot.
But vampire magic didn't seem to bring her much gain. The power she obtained belonged to the kind that had to have a few seconds of front swing to turn into a bat and run away. Not only did it not make her stronger, but the weaknesses of vampires fearing sunlight and holy artifacts made her unable to use reverse magic well.
On the contrary, the Flash seemed to get more benefits from the vampire bloodline. At least he could deal with Green Lantern Hal in the Speed Force, which was enough to prove that he was stronger than before.
But his brain didn't seem to be enough again. What kind of amazing wisdom made him feel that he could torture Green Lantern first and then threaten Batman?
Vampires simply equate to blocking their evolutionary path at both ends. The purer the bloodline, the lower the IQ, and the more mixed the bloodline, the higher the IQ. How can this still be played?
And Constantine and Schiller have actually begun to study why this is the case.
Their plan went very smoothly. After the Flash invasion disaster broke out on the timeline of the past, vampires immediately realized that if they didn't stop the Flash, they would either be killed in the past or starved to death in the present.
In Arkham Asylum, led by the Penguin, the bitten lunatics found Constantine and asked him to find a way to solve the disaster of the past. Constantine also took this opportunity to contact more vampires and, like Schiller, discovered the differences between individual vampires.
It's just that he knew more truth, so he could naturally deduce how this inverted evolutionary path developed.
Still have to start from Mary's amazing plan.
From Mary's point of view, her plan might really have no problem, but she forgot a very important thing—she is a human.
Mary is a vampire, but she is also a human. She is not an ancient relic like Dracula. She is a human who contracted the source of blood magic power. Although she became a vampire, human blood flows in her body. Otherwise, how could she reproduce like a human?
The children she had with the third generation also had human blood in their bodies, and the two of them married again, which is equivalent to two humans marrying within the family.
Human incest only has defects in IQ or limbs because the human body's potential is just that much. These vampires are different. Their bodies contain powerful energy, and the bloodline defects brought by incest will be more obvious in them. This is the source of the vampire monster that mastered four kinds of magic.
But before the eldest prince and the second princess were finished off, they had already left many descendants, and these descendants have developed more descendants over the years. That is to say, most of the current vampires have incestuous bloodline defects.
And it is that the closer the bloodline is to the eldest prince and the second princess, the more obvious the bloodline defects are. A large part of the current vampires have this defective bloodline. It would be strange if this didn't cause problems.
Constantine couldn't laugh or cry at this result. He felt that they didn't need to make such a complicated plan. Just let it go, and vampires would sooner or later have to play themselves to extinction. ===== CHAPTER 2913 =====
