Chapter 229 - 227 | What Was Expansion? The Perfect Creature.
There was no expected tension, and there was no speculative tit-for-tat.
With his multiple identities, Corvinus simply agreed to Luke's request. ??
If the future of the dark world was really the so-called 'Magic Congress' presiding over the overall situation.
Then, investing in advance was a good choice.
Led by Superman and the Sorcerer Supreme, this special official institution was a sure thing.
"To tell you the truth, the hybrid agent is of no use to you."
Corvinus pulled out the needle and handed a tube full of blood to Selene.
Like Lucian, he subconsciously thought that Superman needed the hybrid for his own sake.
The vampire's long life, and a werewolf's rapid self-healing, were all enviable abilities.
"It doesn't matter if I can't use it. It's enough that it works for Selene."
Luke smiled.
He should do what he promised to do.
Since it was said before, freedom in exchange for loyalty.
Then, he wouldn't go back on his word.
Selene, who received the tube of blood, had a slight tremor in her arm, and her cold face improved slightly.
She had sworn a blood oath and was bound by a contract.
Whether or not Luke could fulfill his promise for her to walk under the sun, she had to remain loyal.
However, it seems that the other party didn't forget the agreement.
This was a bit of a surprise to Selene, who maintained the perception that 'all humans were insidious liars'.
"Don't think badly of us all the time."
Luke noticed the change in Selene's expression and spoke jokingly.
"As many of you know, I never lie, at least to most people."
The latter pursed her lips and continued to maintain a stern, cold look.
"So, I'm looking forward to working with you."
Luke regained his straight face and averted his joking expression.
The conversation was pleasant and went well.
Corvinus was at least one of the leading figures. He had to show personal strength and 'strongly' shake hands with him.
He didn't expect the other party to nod decisively and didn't even bother to respond.
It was like sitting at a gambling table, and before you had thrown in any chips, your opponent had already chosen to admit defeat.
"I hope so."
Corvinus laughed cheerfully.
He had always been a moderate.
After seeing Hydra's technology and the foundation that Temple of the Three has.
They insisted that vampires and werewolves were unable to compete with human resistance.
Therefore, they had no objection to being officially integrated.
Besides, the one they were talking to was Superman!
In terms of power in the human world, the other side was more powerful than Corvinus himself.
Even with his status as a Hungarian warlord and a major Romanian businessman, he had accumulated countless wealth and contacts.
But against Luke's incredible rise, he's still not good enough.
After all, no amount of wealth and connections could guarantee his survival from Superman's iron fists.
"Marcus, I'll go wake him …"
Boom!
Halfway through Corvinus' sentence, the sound of a floor-to-ceiling window shattering rang through the hotel suite.
A hideous figure with bluish-black skin suddenly appeared in mid-air.
The pair of fully opened bat wings flapped rapidly, curling up a violent flow of air.
"Mr. Corvinus, your son has come."
Luke was calm, not surprised at all.
With his senses, it would be a lie if he didn't notice Marcus' sudden attack.
"Marcus became a hybrid …"
Corvinus looked surprised, not understanding what had happened.
"It should be Lucian's blood. When he fought with Viktor, the blood flowed into the blood coffin and awakened Marcus, who was sleeping."
Luke explained with a look of realization.
Lucian, who was standing behind him, couldn't help but feel that Superman's acting skills were superb.
All this, obviously, was expected.
"Father!"
After becoming a half-werewolf, half-vampire hybrid, Marcus's strength had greatly increased, far beyond the elders.
Coming in through the hotel's floor-to-ceiling windows, the bat wings behind his back retracted slightly, and he looked indifferently at Corvinus.
"The hotel manager had just replaced my windows …"
Luke muttered silently.
Last time Selene visited late at night, he broke the French window, and Howard paid the bill.
Although the hotel insisted on not taking it and thought it was only a trivial matter.
But as a decent person, Superman, the official delegate, also insisted on paying.
The fine tradition was engraved in his bones that he would not and should not take advantage of the common people. If there were damages to public property, he had to compensate for it.
What?
Neptune's Trident?
The Continental Shelf Oscillator?
Oh please.
Atlanteans were not common people.
Besides, Luke didn't take advantage of them.
"You want to work with humans! I'm very disappointed!"
Marcus ignored the weak human being who had no sense of existence and spoke hoarsely.
The hotel suite contained a werewolf, a vampire, and his biological father.
A mere human being, living among them, was just like Husky entering into a wolf's den. Not worth caring about.
"Viktor is dead. I saw his 'remains' in the underground chamber."
Marcus said excitedly.
"He must have been burned in the sun by the Master of the sanctum and reduced to ashes! That guy was always clinging to power, challenging the rules of Temple of the Three, and now he got what he deserves!"
Corvinus stopped talking and wanted to remind his rebellious son that the man who killed Viktor was beside him.
"My strength is much stronger than before, father! As long as we find William's whereabouts, our brothers together with you as the originator, we can drive the pure-blooded descendants of Dracula to extinction!"
Marcus was also a vindictive man. He was deeply hostile to the pure-blooded cronies of Dracula.
"As for humans? They are untrustworthy, weak, and greedy. They only deserve to be slaves!"
Hearing this, Luke coughed and flatly said, "Mr. Corvinus, I find myself offended."
Selene and Lucian exchanged looks, secretly holding a trace of sympathy for Marcus.
Any guy who took Superman lightly wouldn't end up well.
Viktor was a lesson learned.
The vampire lord had been taught a bloody lesson with his own life.
"Shut up! Marcus, you've been blinded by the sudden power!"
Corvinus quickly chided.
He didn't want his son to offend Superman. If the other party were angry and beat Marcus to death, he wouldn't even have a chance to take revenge.
Marcus was rebellious, disobedient, and liked to get into trouble everywhere.
But after all, he was a direct bloodline, so more or less, he should be given some tolerance.
For the three branches of the Corvinus bloodline, William was unable to communicate properly, Marcus was too rebellious, and the unknown normal human was long ago erased by time, leaving only a continuous succession of descendants.
Simply put, Marcus was probably the only son who could communicate with him, and he didn't want to see him die under Superman's iron fist.
"You've lived too long and worn out your ambition, Father."
Unfortunately, Marcus, whose pride was so inflated that it was about to explode, couldn't understand Corvinus's painstaking efforts.
He was so immersed in the thrill of being a hybrid that he was high as a kite.
Losing the weakness of being afraid of the sun, with the terrible power of a werewolf and the amazing speed of vampires, this was a perfect creature!
His future potential was limitless!
What Dracula, what pure-blood descendants, what sanctum masters … all trash!
"I'm not much worse than you are now, Father. So, let's face it, William and I can do great things that you can't even think about!"
Faced with the pressure of the ancestor, Marcus didn't panic in the slightest and laughed loudly, "Unify the blood race, get rid of the constraints from Temple of the Three and reach the top of the pyramid of power …"
"Selene, please shut him up. This guy is too noisy."
Luke picked his eyebrows and spoke casually.
This time, he didn't ask for Corvinus's opinion.
"Drink that blood and show this … crazy hybrid, what power is."
Luke said lightly, completely ignoring the enraged Marcus.
Swish!
The bat wings behind the vampire hybrid's back suddenly stretched out like spikes tearing through the air.
Its target was Luke's throat!
Howl!
Lucian had the good sense not to let Superman take action himself.
Instead, he quickly transformed and blocked in front of him.
