Chapter 108 Gray Zone Blood Race

"The completion of the reverse pentagram does not mean the completion of the ceremony."

Zhang Yu said in a hasty voice, and stared at the map, trying to see what else was part of the ceremony, hoping to infer the type of ceremony.

He muttered to himself:
"The inverse pentagram is indeed an element representing hell, but a single element cannot complete a large-scale ceremony covering the entire New York."

"There must be something else, what is it?"

"Death? Killing? No, this kind of ceremony is bound to be accompanied by death and killing, and compared with the huge ceremony that can cover the entire New York, the number of these deaths is not enough."

"It's time."

Said Tony Stark as Super Genius.

He doesn't know much about this kind of mysticism, so he can only analyze it from the most superficial phenomena, and with his sensitivity to numbers, he quickly noticed the connection among them.

"Except for the dimension fusion attack in Tokyo, the time interval between each crime committed by the clown is six days."

"Six days."

Zhang Yu chewed on this word, and suddenly exclaimed:
"Yes, it's time."

"The time interval between each clown committing a crime is six days, and six is ​​also the number referring to the devil, and 666 is the number of Satan."

"7 was understood as the 'perfect number', a gift of the Spirit, while six was considered an extreme deficiency.

777 is a perfect symbol of God, while 666 represents the opposite of God, the symbol of the devil. "

"There are now only five cases in New York, which means there will be one attack."

"The interval between each attack was six days."

Having said that, Zhang Yu suddenly got stuck. He turned his head and asked Tony:

"How many days have passed since the last clown attack?"

"Six days..."

……

On the other side, in the office of the Joint Task Force, Steve Rogers threw away the pen in his hand, pinched the bridge of his nose a little annoyed, and sighed deeply.

The sigh was full of exhaustion and bewilderment.

He didn't understand, what happened to this country that he was willing to give up his life for?
In order to suppress the clown's influence among the people as soon as possible, the joint task force was granted enormous rights.

And this also let Steve Rogers know something that he may never know, something that even SHIELD will definitely keep from him.

With the progress of various investigations, many gray areas under the sun were gradually exposed before his eyes.

It involves the corruption of various high-level government interests, and the roles played by countless business giants and chaebol families. Their various behaviors are even more shocking.

Just take the blood race as an example.

After the night of Hydra's destruction, S.H.I.E.L.D. began to secretly search for the extraordinary forces that existed in the United States, but the result surprised them.

The United States not only has extraordinary power, but has been deeply embedded in the top political and business leaders.

After the European colonists arrived in the American continent, some extraordinary forces in Europe also arrived in this new continent.

In the ensuing hundreds of years of colonial upsurge, the superhumans who believed in heaven, earth and spirits in native America were almost completely wiped out by guns, bacteria, and European superhumans.

Only a small number of wolf worshipers were left to linger in the reserved area with the remaining Indians.

After that, an interesting story happened.

A group of blood clan remnants who could barely get along in their hometown in Europe, escaped, but in this wild new continent at that time, they were doing well.

Afterwards, they colluded with high-ranking mortals who wanted to strengthen their own rights, expelled the orthodox Holy See forces in Europe as a whole, and turned the newly established America into a completely Protestant country.

Protestantism calls on people to communicate with God without the Holy See.

Although this sounds very free, it also means that its connection with the Holy See is the weakest.

Since you don't need the Holy See, the Holy See will not lend a helping hand to you.

In this way, the blood race got rid of their old opponent for thousands of years in this vast new continent - the Holy See, the most powerful enemy.

Even better, the vampires who lost their enemies have learned the lessons of the past.

"Follow the wind and the waves!"

The vampires without enemies did not try to build a dark empire exclusively for them on this continent as before, but cleverly hid it with the help of their almost human appearance.

Slowly accumulate wealth and strength.

As an immortal species with an unlimited lifespan, time is the least valuable thing.

Their hiding was so successful that a hundred years later, the United States Ministry of Magic couldn't find them at the beginning, and even if they found them later, they couldn't solve them.

For hundreds of years, they have been hiding in the darkness and learning from humans continuously:

Business, politics, industrial and agricultural production, and even science.

Yes, Nick Fury was stunned when he first found out.

Different from the public's traditional concept of vampires or vampires, these guys don't just throw magic that seems backward. On the contrary, their average education is very high, much higher than that of humans.

Even many technological inventions and great scientists in human history are actually blood races behind them.

Example: Artificial plasma...

This is actually not surprising.

In terms of the long lifespan of the blood race, as long as they are willing to learn, it will be a matter of time before they become experts in a field.

And if it is a blood family with scientific research talent, it is quite normal to have some excellent results occasionally in a long period of time.

Fortunately, most researchers are unable to transcend their cultural strata.

The few talented people were also well protected and were not transformed by the blood clan.

Otherwise, if there is a vampire Newton or vampire Einstein who is almost immortal and has almost unlimited funds...

What will this future world look like?

It's scary to think about.

It is worth mentioning that Tesla is the only genius scientist who has been successfully transformed by the blood race since modern times.

later……

he died...

……

But even so, over a long period of time, the blood race has accumulated indescribable wealth.

And the blood race itself has also found the weakness of human beings, a race that is keen on killing and destroying, in the long-term coexistence with human beings.

That is the endless greed for money, and the dissatisfaction with the short and limited life span.

What a coincidence!

The blood race can provide both of these things.

Therefore, after the Civil War, the power of the blood clan expanded wildly in the shadow of American expansion.

Countless young people became slaves of the blood clan for money, and countless powerful old people were transformed into new blood clans and became part of this huge empire.

Therefore, whenever they hear someone refer to a black-hearted capitalist as a "vampire", the vampires will always smile knowingly.

because:

Very fitting, isn't it?
