The vampire heiress is two-faced

Page 163

...

According to the first royal succession law used by the vampires in a thousand years, when a new king ascends the throne, all symbols of the previous king must be replaced with those of the new queen. In other words, the traces left by the Eternal Queen among the vampires will be completely erased, as if she had never existed.

The newly designed vampire emblems, patterns, and paintings, along with the renamed vampire items, constantly proclaim one fact to the vampires: the current queen is Ludwig, the Queen of Eternal Night.

These complex matters are necessary to consolidate the new king's position. The traces left by the former king will inevitably sow the seeds of instability in the foundation of the new king's rule.

...

Ludwig had already secretly analyzed the composition of the Eternal Pure Land's barrier, which was not difficult for someone with her sharp mind.

Therefore, she recently deployed a barrier within the castle, based on the same principle as the Eternal Pure Land, successfully enveloping the entire castle—

However, the only function of this barrier is to keep the castle and the surrounding area perpetually at night, just as she named it – [Eternal Night Domain].

It not only ensures that vampires are always in the most comfortable living environment, but also provides space for lighting in areas that require illumination, such as castle gardens, and even offers many convenient auxiliary effects to the Queen of the Night.

It can be said that as long as the Queen of Eternal Night resides in this castle, it will be a forbidden place where the enemies of the vampires face a near-certain death.

For vampires who have a fondness for darkness

For them, it is a true castle of eternal night, an everlasting "sweet home".

...

Under the iron-fisted rule of the Night Queen, it's impossible for a traitor to exist within the castle. Therefore, it's absolutely safe for Dr. Zhou to receive treatment here.

When Dr. Lin, the Blood Doctor of the Dark Zone, saw that it was his old colleague who was injured, he immediately picked up his medical toolbox and followed Ruo Keke to the castle, heading towards the castle's medical room.

As a newly arrived vampire, he was amazed by the elegance and orderliness of the place, and experienced an unprecedented sense of comfort and security, completely different from the vampire dark zone.

He took a deep breath of the air, looking completely absorbed.

"So this is what it feels like to be loyal to the vampire queen. It's wonderful. I'm so glad I didn't listen to those humans' slander."

But... there's a medical room in the castle, so why call Dr. Lin to come along?

The answer is simple: the castle's medical room does indeed only treat vampires. Those original blood healers, who have lived for hundreds of years, have long forgotten the techniques for treating humans.

Although Dark Zone Blood Doctors are nominally doctors who treat vampires, they are essentially modern doctors who have mastered the techniques to treat vampires; they can still heal humans. Dr. Lin is one of the millions of human doctors who were unjustly transformed into vampires. Like many of his colleagues, he chose to become a Dark Zone Blood Doctor in order to make a living, and because he couldn't bear to give up his medical skills.

...

About twenty minutes passed after Dr. Zhou was taken into the medical room.

Dr. Lin, covered in sweat, walked out of the medical room with a solemn expression.

Ruo Keke, standing at the door, hurriedly asked, "Doctor, how is Dr. Zhou?"

Dr. Lin sighed and shook his head, saying, "The situation is not optimistic."

"Humans are far less physically strong than us vampires. The person who shot him was a seasoned and ruthless killer, and the bullet used was a dumdum bullet containing a biological toxin."

Coco was shocked: "Dumdum bullets... those dangerous bullets that 'bloom' inside the body and shred flesh? Even vampires can't withstand them, let alone humans!"

Coco's head was wrapped in large bandages, and she had just undergone surgery to remove shrapnel from her brain and chest.

It was because the dumdum bullet shredded her heart and brain that she temporarily lost consciousness and the ability to move...

She was even a little scared, because the destructive power of the dumdum bullet was difficult for even a high-level vampire to resist. The reason she was able to heal quickly under the terrifying destructive power of the dumdum bullet was because she had recently become the only kin of the vampire queen.

If she had carried out the investigation a few days earlier, or if Ludwig hadn't made her a member of the Familia, she probably would have died on the spot.

"No wonder the assassin didn't finish off Dr. Zhou; he knew Dr. Zhou was doomed!" Ruo Keke said through gritted teeth.

Dr. Lin shook his head again: "No. Xiao Zhou... there's a way for him to survive."

"I want to become a vampire, cough...don't you understand? Brother Lin?"

[This way, I can not only survive and continue practicing medicine, but also use my own body to understand the structure of vampires...]

[This will allow me to continue advancing research in vampire medicine...]

“These are his exact words, Miss Ruo.”

"I can't help it," Dr. Lin said helplessly.

“I know his temperament. If I go against him at a time like this, he will never let me go, even if I die.”

...

There was no time for Ruo Keke to hesitate; Dr. Zhou was at a critical juncture... Since he was a descendant of Dr. Zhou Chengli from a hundred years ago, he might possess unknown clues; moreover, he had inexplicably become the target of the group's chess players—

Dr. Zhou's life must be saved!

The Embrace performed in the Castle of Eternal Night is not a childish game to be played lightly.

Coco cautiously consulted Torre, and Torre readily gave her a reply.

“Coco, setting aside the reasons you mentioned, Dr. Zhou is also a rare medical talent who can inject fresh modern blood into the ancient vampire medicine. As for the complicated matters and trials before and after the Embrace, I can ask Her Majesty the Queen for special approval.”

...

...

...

Several hours later, the operating room door finally opened.

If Coco had finished her work report long ago, she would have been waiting here for Dr. Zhou's Embrace ceremony to be completed. As the one who brought Dr. Zhou here, she had an obligation to guide this new vampire member.

After all, this is part of a maid's job.

Dr. Zhou emerged from the operating room unharmed and looking completely calm.

He had transformed into a vampire with pointed ears and red eyes, donned a brand-new doctor's white coat, and was admiring his new self in the mirror beside him with great interest.

"Um... Dr. Zhou, hello?"

He turned his head and asked, "What?"

Coco looked puzzled: "Didn't you hate vampires? You actually offered to become one yourself, which really surprised me."

Dr. Zhou rolled his eyes and said, "When did I ever say I hate vampires?"

Coco said, "But you clearly don't treat any vampires..."

He waved his hand: "Ah, you mean this? It's not your fault. That attitude was something I deliberately put on. I refused to treat vampires because I haven't mastered the techniques to treat them, nor do I understand their physical structure. To rashly treat vampires would be irresponsible."

A look of disgust rose in his eyes.

"Those bastards in the hospital's vampire specialist medical department, under the guise of treating vampires, are experimenting on the bodies of innocent vampires, using methods for treating humans to treat vampires... In the end, vampires still have to go to the vampire dark zone, adding to the workload of dark zone blood doctors like Brother Lin. I've wanted to run away for a long time."

and..."

Dr. Zhou paused for a moment.

“My attitude was also for self-preservation. I had long suspected that someone was tailing the doctor who was associated with vampires, so I always tried to distance myself from vampires. But as expected, as soon as I handed you a wooden box, the person tailing me discovered it immediately... But this also confirmed my suspicions.”

"The Fourth Hospital of Chongchuan City holds leverage over the Spier Group. Otherwise, they wouldn't be so desperate over a trivial box."

Anger flashed in Dr. Zhou's eyes, then he shook his head and turned to leave.

"Never mind, let's talk later. I need to take care of all the complicated vampire paperwork and register as a full-fledged vampire. See you later, Miss Ruo. I'll need your guidance again later."

...

"Wait, Dr. Zhou, I still don't know your name."

"Didn't I tell you that a long time ago?"

"Said that? When?"

"My name is Zhou."

"..."

"What's with that expression?"

...

Although Coco still couldn't understand this strange doctor, she had come to accept him in her heart; he was undoubtedly a noble physician.

Letting him join the vampire clan should be the right decision; time will tell.

Fortunately, most vampires are eccentric individuals, and he might be able to get along well with those native blood healers.

Chapter 182 Puppet

"Your Majesty? Your Majesty!"

crunch--

"I have something important to do..."

If Coco pushed open the door, she would see a silver-haired girl in a nightgown lying lazily on the bed, dozing off.

During this period, it seems that she is sleeping no matter when you come in. Presumably, the Queen's political affairs are not easy, and she needs to seize every spare moment to rest.

What Coco didn't know was that her exhaustion was actually due to the frequent use of blood curses to create many "blood puppets," which she buried in various parts of the group as her moles and spies.

"Sigh, Lulu...it must be tough."

If Coco sits next to her, take her hand.

"It won't make a difference if it takes a little more time. I'll just wait here. We can talk about it after I wake up."

...

...

...

But in reality, Ludwig was not asleep.

A few moments earlier, in a secluded room at the Chongchuan City Group branch.

The black-haired girl named Xue Xiaolin sat upright, her body trembling slightly with excitement, communicating with a distant and powerful consciousness.

"Queen of Eternal Night...Your Majesty..."

She asked incoherently.

"What are you going to do by calling us here?"

Following Xue Xiaolin's gaze, it turned out that she wasn't alone in the room. Besides her, there were six or seven other vampire girls of different ages, identities, and appearances sitting around the table, watching Xue Xiaolin as she communicated with the Queen.

Without a doubt, they had all become the Queen's "blood puppets".

"Don't rush, Rin."

A soft laugh echoed in Xue Xiaolin's mind, and the voice of the Eternal Night Queen rang out once more.

"I'd better tell them what happens next myself. By the way, let's test the most important function of the 'Blood Puppet'."

Xiao Lin exclaimed with delight, "Would you like to use my body? I would be honored!"

Her feverish, blood-red eyes were filled with happiness, madness, and satisfaction from being favored by the queen, until a spasm caused it all to vanish.

...

Xue Xiaolin raised her head again, her gentle eyes concealing a deadly danger, deep and alluring.

"Welcome, Your Majesty!"

The other puppet girls said in unison.

Xue Xiaolin waved his hand and said, "No need, what if there are eavesdroppers?"

...

She closed her eyes, and all of Xue Xiaolin's memories flashed through her mind, allowing her to seamlessly portray the role of "Xue Xiaolin".

Ludwig's consciousness can be projected onto any "blood puppet" at any time, gaining all its memories and habits, and becoming completely its...

she was.

Furthermore, since it is merely a projection of consciousness, once Ludwig cancels the overlay of consciousness, the blood golems will return to their original state without affecting their memories or bodies.

This is why the body owner, whose control of the body has been taken away, still retains a clear consciousness and shares the perception and vision of this moment.

The real Xue Xiaolin was excitedly babbling incoherently in his mind:

"Your Majesty...I have become one with you...Your Majesty..."

Ludwig smiled: "Alright, little Rin, be quiet. Otherwise, we won't be able to use your body anymore."

...
