Chapter 519: Blood Clan Mass Grave
"The ancestor of the blood race?"

Mu You was taken aback, isn't it the ancestor of the blood race who has been dead for more than 2000 years?

The diary that records the process of his birth...

Mu You's face was weird, but it's true when you think about it, all the current vampires are created by this ancestor of the blood clan generation after generation, so how did the first vampire come about?

【Mai handed you a dilapidated old book. 】

[You got the 'Incomplete Diary of the Vampire's Ancestor'. 】

Mu You extracted the diary and looked at it.

An extremely old book appeared in his hands. It was said to be a diary, but it was more like a newly unearthed cultural relic. The pages were yellowed and curled. Nine out of ten pages were torn into shape, and the writing on it was even more blurred. illegible.

Muyou asked Mai to wait a moment, sat down and read this 'diary' carefully from beginning to end.

Because some of the handwriting was too blurry, and the diary narrative itself was intermittent, Mu You sketched for more than an hour, and in the end he only half-guessed some of the information in the diary.

The general idea of ​​the diary is that this ancestor of the blood race was just an ordinary farmer in the star spirit world a long time ago. Until one day, he accidentally entered a mysterious city and stayed there for half a year, waiting to leave. Later, he had the ability to live forever and various magical vampire abilities.

However, he lost all his memories in this city. He had no memory of how his curse and powers came from. The experiences of the past six months were as if someone had forcibly cut them out of his mind. .

The only thing left in his mind is a name and a legend.

This man's name is 'Cain', and he is a farmer like him. Cain also has a younger brother named Abel, who is a shepherd. One day, a messenger from a certain god passed by their farm and asked the brothers to sacrifice their most precious things to the gods. something to show sincerity to the Lord.

Cain brought vegetables and grains from the ground as a tribute, and Abel sacrificed the fattest animals of his flock.The gods praised Abel's sacrifice, but they ignored Cain's sacrifice.

Cain was very painful about this. As a farmer, he had already dedicated the best he had to the gods, why he still couldn't satisfy the gods.Cain asked the messenger, and the messenger told him that what the gods want is the most precious thing in their respective hearts, and Cain must have concealed something to make the god dissatisfied.

Cain suddenly realized, so during the second sacrifice, Cain pulled out the sharp weapon, stabbed his favorite thing, that is, his brother Abel to death, and offered it to the gods.

The god was very angry, and bluntly said that Abel was not Cain's favorite person. Cain was just jealous that his brother was appreciated by the gods, so he killed his brother.

The gods then cast three curses on Cain:

One, he and his descendants will forever be thirsty for blood, forever just a parasite.

Two, he and his descendants will always be afraid of the sun, and can only hide in the dark sewers like mice all day long.

Third, he will have no choice but to live and die. In the curse called eternity, he will endure the torture of the first two curses forever and ever.

Mu You frowned looking at the content recorded on the paper.

This man named 'Cain' was also the 'Blood God' who was generally believed by vampires in the astral world. He was recognized as the originator of vampires within the vampires.

However, this legend only mentioned that Cain was cursed by three kinds of vampires by a certain god, but it didn't mention how his power came from, and how he changed from a mortal to a blood god.

In short, there is only so much information that can be obtained from this diary.

Mu You was about to put away the diary, but unexpectedly discovered that a corner of a piece of thin paper was quietly exposed between the pages of the diary.

Mu You pulled out the piece of paper, opened it and saw that it was a hand-drawn map.

The lines on this map are quite simple, like graffiti, only the shape of a continent can be roughly seen, and at a certain position in it, a tiny cross is marked.

"This is the place where the ancestor of the blood race was born?" Mu You raised an eyebrow.

This map is sandwiched in this diary, so it is impossible that it has nothing to do with the diary. Most likely, the map marked on it is exactly the 'place' mentioned in the diary.

Mu You hurriedly found a map of the Star Spirit Realm and compared it with the continent on the paper. After a while, he confirmed a very similar place: the Desert of No Return!
"In the desert?" Mu You was surprised.

The No Return Desert is the largest sandy continent in the Star Spirit World. The Qingyan Desert and Scarlet Desert that Mu You visited before belong to this continent.

Mu You didn't expect that the birthplace of vampires would be in a desert with plenty of sunshine. No matter what, now that he has found a clue, whether it is true or not, he has to go and see it first.

Then Mu You returned to the game and told Mai Yi that he was going to go to the desert. Mai Yi immediately asked to go with him, but Mu You refused.

The desert can be said to be the most unsuitable place for vampires to walk around in the entire astral world. The Fool at least has other skins for daytime activities. Serious vampires go to the desert to find their sins.

【Under Mai Yi's reluctant eyes, you bid farewell to her and stepped into the teleportation array of Eternal Night City alone. 】

[You appear in the City of Dawn. 】

The desert area is where the Dawn City stays. Mu You has a lot of acquaintances here. In addition to Solomon, there is also Evans, the head of the army of the Adramer Empire, who is also an old friend.

Mu You asked the locals casually, and got the location marked on the map—the Yellowstone Desert, where there is no sound of water.

The Yellowstone Desert is the most arid area among several nearby deserts, and is famous for its yellow sand all year round.

And 'Soundless Water' is an extremely dry area at the core of the Yellowstone Desert. Even the top water magician here can't summon even a single water element, so it is called 'No Echoing Water' place'.

Such an extremely dry land is naturally uninhabitable. It should be said that there are no human traces in the entire Shuiwuxiang and surrounding areas. It is also the only place in the entire Wugui Desert that is completely untouched.

Mu You didn't expect that the origin of vampires was in such a ghostly place. At this time, he couldn't find anyone to accompany him, so he could only drive the land boat alone into the depths of the desert.

After several hours of traveling, Mu You arrived at the place.

[...The land ship stopped roaring, you have reached 'Soundless Water'. 】

[You left the land boat, and saw the yellow sand blowing in the sky, you only felt thirsty in the corners of your eyes, and your nasal cavity was burning like fire. You subconsciously wanted to replenish the water source. Not a single drop left after evaporating...]

Sure enough, the reputation is well-deserved, this ghost place is so dry that even tears and saliva can be dried in an instant, no wonder there are few people.

Mu You didn't want to stay in such a ghostly place, so he immediately took out the scepter of the moon and activated the artifact on the spot.

【You activated the Moon Scepter, and the originally bright sky around you instantly became dark.A full moon quietly appeared high in the sky, and the mercury-like moonlight poured over the desert, but it was difficult to counteract the heat waves that rolled up here from time to time...]

[You switch to the Boiling Blood Wolf skin. 】

The Boiling Blood Wolf is the skin that Muyou brushed out from that werewolf boy before. It is a kind of werewolf with the strongest perception ability to vampires. On the night of the full moon, the perception ability will reach its peak, and it can be separated by hundreds of kilometers. From the distance, I can perceive the vampire tombs buried deep in the ground.

This desert is completely bare. Even if there is something related to vampires, it must be buried underground and can only be sensed by werewolf skin.

Next, Mu You took advantage of the blessing of the full moon and drove wildly in the desert with the werewolf skin. If the map in the log is real, then the skin should be able to sense something.

Sure enough, within a few minutes of starting the search, a prompt popped up in the game.

【...You feel a strong smell of blood seeping from the ground not far ahead! 】

[The violently boiling blood in your body is reminding you that there may be more than one vampire hiding underground, and they are extremely powerful!You better approach carefully. 】

"Oh?"

Mu You was surprised, and a warning prompt popped up at the same time... More than one, could it be that there are many vampire tombs gathered here?
【You are approaching the bloody place...】

[You are moving away from the crisis...]

……

Mu You constantly adjusted his direction by relying on the prompts given by the text feedback. After searching for about ten minutes, he finally found the right place.

【Exactly here!The place under your feet is the most bloody, as a werewolf, you'd better leave this place as soon as possible!But as a vampire, you might be able to go down and see! 】

Mu You directly switched to the mecha skin, equipped with an alchemy device called 'Pangolin Driller', and began to dig sand downwards.

[The drill bit is spinning, countless sand and gravel are flying out from the ground, and the machine body is rapidly going deep into the ground...]

【Excavating...】

What followed was a long excavation process. After about 10 minutes, the mecha dug through the sand layer and reached the ore rock area. The rock ore here is rich in metal and extremely hard, and the earth penetration technique cannot penetrate it. Can be pierced with a drill.

[The roar of the alchemy engine resounded over the desert. After an unknown period of time, you suddenly felt empty under your feet, as if you had dug into a hollow somewhere. You lost your support, and the whole body fell straight down. 】

[Amidst the dust, you suddenly feel down-to-earth again, and when you open your eyes, you find that you are already in an ancient underground palace. 】

[There are various strange murals carved on the surrounding stone walls, and in the passage, mummies can be seen everywhere, with different forms of death...]

When it fell, Mu You had already held his pocket watch and was ready for a battle at any time.

As a result, none of the imaginary powerful enemies and various killing mechanisms appeared. There seemed to be no living people in the palace.

Mu You frowned, controlled the mech to unload the drill, equipped the shotgun, and continued to explore.

【You approach the horrifying mummy closest to you. Judging from the dried blood around it, this person was at least a vampire duke in his lifetime...】

[The second mummy died in the same tragic manner. It seemed that someone had cut his heart and lungs to death. Judging from his aura, this person had also reached the level of a duke...]

……

Mu You searched all the way forward, and the more he looked, the more frightened he became.

The corpses of vampires are everywhere in this palace, it is not so much a vampire tomb as a mass grave!

What's more important is that these dead vampires are all Duke level, without exception!

"So many dukes?"

Mu You's face was strange. Before he came, he was worried that the vampire tombs he had found were not enough.You must know that just to upgrade from Marquis to Duke requires ten drops of the blood of the ancestors. With the extraction of the Blood Shrine, at least ten tombs of Vampire Dukes must be found to achieve this.

How rare is the status of a vampire duke? The total number of dukes in the history of the entire blood family may not exceed three figures. Think about finding ten. How easy is it?

However, the scene in front of him completely overturned his concept: at the moment, there are at least hundreds of remains of the vampire duke lying under his feet alone, and there will be more remains in the invisible places in the depths.

The majestic Vampire Duke, who is at the apex of the vampires today, was so bad in the past?
[You take out the niche of blood and place it on the remains at your feet. 】

[The niche of blood lights up automatically and begins to absorb the remaining energy from the remains...]

[After absorbing it, you have obtained a small drop of 'ancestor's blood', its energy is only one-tenth of normal ancestor's blood...]

The absorption process was faster than expected, and it took about half a minute to absorb a corpse. However, I don't know if the corpse here was too damaged, and only one-tenth of the blood of the ancestor was obtained.

Fortunately, there were enough dead bodies at the scene.

Mu You took the blood niche and absorbed it all the way.

An hour later, more than 100 remains were sucked, and 10 drops of the blood of the ancestors were finally collected in the blood niche.

[You have collected ten drops of 'Blood of the Ancestor', do you want to fuse them immediately? 】

[Note: After the fusion, your Vampire Marquis skin will be promoted to 'Vampire Duke', the previously awakened vampire talent will be enhanced, and a new talent ability will be automatically comprehended. 】

"Yes."

There was no need to hesitate, Mu You improved on the spot.

[Promotion completed, your vampire skin is promoted to 'Vampire Duke'. 】

[Your giant killer, talent absorption, and super speed three talents have been strengthened. 】

[You have awakened a brand new talent: Super Sense. 】

The promotion was successfully completed, and it was still the same as last time. Only the talents of a few blood races were strengthened, and those talents that were devoured could not be improved.

Mu You glanced briefly, and found that the three talents had not been greatly improved, and the Giant Killer just increased the multiplier; the super speed multiplier remained the same, and the cooldown time was shortened from one activation per minute to half a minute.

As for talent absorption, the side effects are reduced by one level again. The curses obtained after absorbing talents will be reduced by two levels in a row. Some ordinary curses will disappear directly, and even powerful curses will be greatly weakened.

The last thing is the newly acquired super sense. Needless to say, his sister Mai Yi activated this talent at first. When Mu You acted with her before, she saw her use it many times. It is comparable to the color of knowledge and can be greatly strengthened. Field of vision, predicting enemy opportunities, anti-tracking, anti-ambush, etc., the effect is quite good.

The new talent here can be rolled with a pocket watch, but the other talents of their series, charm, giant force, atomization, deflection, and iron block, seem to be no more practical than super sense, so Mu You simply No more effort to roll.

After selecting his talent, Mu You turned around, looked at the blood niche in his hand, and then looked at the remains on the ground.

Originally, being able to be promoted to the Duke at one time this time has greatly exceeded his expectations, but the current situation can't help but make him have some more greedy thoughts: it seems that he can continue to be promoted...
