Until the end of the Indian funeral in the cemetery, Sibella didn't say anything to Zach. We should have a feeling that after Max suddenly warned Zach to be wary of the Indian family in the middle for the sake of the Toledo clan, Sibella, the leader of the Barton wizard, should be a little conscious, huh, not to mention that he can You can guess what one of your own said to Zach, but you should at least test it out.
Sibella didn't. She just made it clear that she didn't want Max and Zach to communicate too much, but she didn't care what Max and Zach said at all. Even if Zach wanted to give Sibella a chance to defend herself, Tsk, Sibella wouldn’t accept it herself.
Back to Grande, the fact that this made Zach a little uncomfortable was pointed out by Murphy.
"I wouldn't say another word to a wizard if he was carrying around the remains of two vampires."
Only then did Zach realize that he turned around and looked at the two Indian angels following him.
*!
It turns out that it wasn’t that Sibella was unwilling to communicate with Zach about the danger that Max might expose, but that at an Indian’s funeral, Sbella really couldn’t deal with a holy master who stole Indian souls and showed off everywhere. Conversations with Creatures of Faith.
Hey, we know Zach wasn't showing off at all, he didn't want to take these two Indian Angels with him at all.
never mind. Zach still doesn't know how to get Newton's angel Crowley to withdraw his order to let the two angels follow him and continue to ignore it.
The reason Grande approached Murphy as soon as he returned was because Zach had to make a big decision - sharing Toledo's last name.
The merger of the Asamat clan and the Toledo clan has been talked about for some time, and Zach has acquiesced to this major event that will change the classification of the thirteen clans. It's time to officially complete the process.
"I will not deny that if the imaging ability has the ability to modify the identity and file it in the government in human society. The Assamite clan needs this ability." Murphy always spoke like this to Zach, being honest and not beating around the bush. "I retract my comment that imaging ability is an obstacle."
If you can keep up, if the funeral hadn't interrupted Zach's schedule, Zach would have gone straight to Murphy when he came out of the bedroom. For no other reason than the imaging ability that replaced Zach's electronic identity document with the federal government.
The Assamaite clan, which relies on replacing the identity of its descendants with the power of human families, needs this ability to change the human government's management of citizenship.
Zach needs help with the surname giving ritual—
We have seen the process of vampires exchanging blood and changing the nature of the clan. Now you can follow Zach to see the process of giving a separate surname. This is a special ritual that no one knows except the twin clans.
You can probably guess the reason. Due to the special characteristics of the twin clans, Set and Assamite, two representative surnames that represent extremes, were decided to be assigned to the new descendants only after confirming the nature of the new vampires. Descendants controlled by emotions were given Set, and descendants controlled by reason were given Asamat. This is the unique characteristic of the Twin Clan.
It can be said that for other vampires, the giving of surnames is a natural and default built-in process when creating new descendants, unless the descendants are orphans. Except for the vampires of the twin clans, no one better understands the significance of passing on the surname to the vampires of the thirteen clans.
Probably only the twin clans have the ability to say, 'I want to merge with other clans and share my surname.' Just because they understand surnames better than other vampires.
"Call my name." Murphy looked at Zach and began to guide.
"Murphy." Zach could only do as he was told.
"Then last name."
"Assamat Toledo," Zach continued. Gee, it was Murphy himself who suggested that Toledo's surname be the main character, wasn't it? Of course, 'Toledo' should be the protagonist and placed at the back.
"One last time together." Murphy continued the instruction.
"Murphy Assamat Toledo." Zach said without emotion.
Why. Zach once said something similar - "Murphy Moriarty." Yes, Zach recalled his marriage.
After listening to Zach's call for his new name, Murphy turned around without giving Zach any feedback and said, "Miley, Mirror."
Zach frowned and looked at Murphy holding out his hand and waiting for Miley to hand the mirror to his hand, "Is this the end?"
The idea behind this is that the circulation of surnames among the thirteen clans is actually so simple. Gee, blood transfusion has a risk factor of restarting the heart! Is it so easy to share last names? It is a miracle that the surnames of the Thirteen Clan have maintained their independence for four centuries.
While waiting for the mirror, Murphy cleared up Zach's confusion. But everyone knows Murphy's 'quality', so don't expect Murphy, who just got the Toledo surname, to have the same feelings as Zach. It's just a factual theory without emotion: "The Thirteen Clan banned it for the benefit of the Vampire Clan. Without intermarriage between clans, there is no possibility for vampires to share surnames..."
It makes sense, Zach's eyebrows relaxed a little.
Murphy didn't finish, "The circulation of surnames has no practical significance for vampires." Murphy glanced at Zach, "Sharing surnames between vampires from two different clans can only have a negative impact on the individual vampire's loyalty and interests to the clan. .No one would do such a useless thing.”
This sentence specifically looked at Zach's words. It would be easier to understand if it can be added with emotional color - Assamite and Toledo merged, and the Assamite clan, which occupies a larger population base, reduced its loyalty to its own clan in order to accept Zachary Toledo, you are so grateful for your loyalty to the Toledo clan!
Zach curled his lips and was too lazy to respond. Now the facts are clearly that Toledo is a great complement to Assamite's lack of grasp of people's hearts. The imaging ability in the surname directly enhances the survival ability of the Assamite clan. It's obviously you Assamites who are taking advantage of Toledo, okay
Murphy got the mirror and said his final explanation, "Before Toledo, there was no surname that had the ability that other clans did not have." The imaging ability brought by the surname of the saint 'Yehil'. Isn't it? Before the current Toledo, all the surnames of the thirteen clans were equal, and the abilities in the surnames were common to everyone.
These words made Zach nod his head. Murphy, who was rational, was conscious. She knew that her clan was the greater beneficiary.
Murphy looked at the mirror in his hand. Zach was just about to share his experience as a senior to fully display the image.
Murphy's arm holding the mirror turned ninety degrees, and his head moved in the opposite direction. He tilted his eyes at the mirror while keeping his eyes in place, "Miley Lister, what did you do to my hair."
Murphy, for the first time, saw Miley's braiding technique that she promised would 'look good'.
Wait a moment.
Zach stepped forward, his eyes fixed on the mirror in Murphy's hand, his mouth slightly opened—
Murphy's image is clear in the mirror.
Murphy's posture was obviously uncomfortable. He didn't understand and went to take a mirror to look at the back of his head to experience it. Murphy ignored Zach's turbulent emotions. mood? Murphy is an emotional insulator.
Murphy looked at his own image in the mirror and said, "Turn around, I want to see your hair."
Zach's slightly opened mouth once again expanded the area of some air leakage—
Murphy's image in the mirror completed a turn in the mirror and turned the back of his head to the mirror.
Murphy stared at the back of his head in the mirror, "Miley, what is this?" Have you ever seen that kind of tangled barbed wire? This is what the back of Murphy's head looks like now. All the hair was tangled together, and the pins inserted into the head to secure it were stuck in the tangled knots. This is not a woman's head, this is a weapon that can be hung on a weapon and wielded to kill at any time.
"How's it going? Does it look good~" Miley had no self-consciousness...
There is no self-consciousness, Murphy has no emotions, no one knows whether Murphy is angry or happy.
Murphy raised his hand and touched the back of his head, "Should I think it looks good?" When he was in the mood, he asked a question.
"Of course!" Miley jumped to Murphy's side, "Look, it can reflect the strength and edge of modern women~"
If strength refers to the hair that is tied into a tight knot, sharpness refers to the pins that are inserted into the knot. Oh, Miley is right.
Miley is still looking for approval, "Are you right~Zach~"
Zach has closed his leaky mouth, turned around and stepped up, he wanted to leave here.
This is the feeling when you are a student and share the problem-solving formulas that you have spent time and energy to master with your classmates, and then they understand it instantly and can apply it at will.
Murphy stopped Zach and said, "Zach." It was quite strange. Murphy rarely called Zach a title that satisfied Zach. He usually called Zach... husband... Now there really was no need to repeat this to deliberately remind Zach of his failed marriage in the past. Called it, Murphy's goal was achieved, "Modifying identity in human society, this advantage has no effect on people like me whose human identity has been dead for centuries."
Not only did the title change, but it also finally made Zach let go of his failed marriage with a sigh of relief. You mean it, Murphy admitted that her identity as Zachary Moriarty's wife has been dead for too long.
Just for this sincerity of letting go. Zach resisted his desire to leave here as soon as possible, stopped and turned around, looking at Murphy and waiting for her to finish.
"In the central part, our clan has been in nearly half a century, especially the descendants born in the past ten years, and they need this ability even more." Murphy said very realistically. The control of identity information by human civilization has exploded in the past half century. It is also the identity merchant of our Barton, the basis for Mr. Steve's survival - his identity transaction is just a sign of legal identity, isn't it? Where do those legal identities come from
Murphy continued, "I can't have this ability alone. I need to go back to the center and let all the Assamaite clan have our new surname."
This is simply a mockery of Zach's delay in merging the clans. How resolute the Assamite clan is!
But we understand that Murphy will not ridicule, so what she said is just what the facts should be, pure ideal logic.
Zach was just mocking himself when he was procrastinating, and nodded expressionlessly, which was regarded as agreement.
After Murphy received the permission, he said nothing. The mirror in her hand was returned to Miley, "I will go back to the central part and continue to let the clan investigate what the central wizard family is doing."
This is something Zach cares about now. Zach was not prepared to ignore Max's reminder, "Be careful." There was nothing wrong with this reminder. After merging the clans, Zach no longer had to cover up. Asamat and Toledo were one.
Murphy just nodded to show that he had received it, and glanced at Zach, "Do you want us to also investigate the werewolf alpha blood trade in the central area?" He asked clearly.
This thing must have moved Zach - we all know that Alpha's blood trade was discovered by the fallen angel Jessica who saved her compatriots in the middle. In order to help Jessica's action, Benjamin was involved in the Alpha blood trading market. Then there is the development of Benjamin deliberately trying to break off his friendship with Zach.
Murphy knew Zach cared about Benjamin.
Rational reasoning, Toledo and Assamite merge into one body, and the relationship between Zach and Alpha is also the relationship between Assamite and Alpha. It's really rare that Murphy can immediately consciously share the burden for Toledo when he gets the advantage of Toledo's surname.
"Yes." Zach's answer was simple, "I need to know that it's those werewolves who are trying to drive a wedge between Benjamin and me." Zach's words are also interesting. The relationship between Alpha and vampires is already bad enough without the need to drive a wedge between them. . Zach lived too well in Barton and Benjamin, and he had a sense of superiority and ignored the real world outside.
Yes, just ignore it. Zack knows better than anyone else the historical hatred between vampires and werewolves, but when he and Benjamin decided not to fight each other on the battlefield, they were choosing the opposite path to the real world. Since you are taking the opposite path, you should ignore the voices that are not on the same path and affect your mood.
Murphy nodded and was already packing his things - just a few bottles of blood stuffed into one bag. Traveling as a vampire is quite convenient.
This action reminded Zach, "Just wait a few days." Zach curled his lips, "You still have Toledo's skills that you haven't mastered yet."
Murphy paused for a moment, "What." Does Toledo have any special abilities that are different from other vampires
Yes, Eli Toledo is also a Toledo. Control blood.
This is the most commonly used technique by Zach now. It is very practical whether it is to survive or hide his identity. "The technique of controlling blood. In the chaotic environment in the middle, images can solve the survival problems in human society. Controlling blood can increase the number of people." The Assamaite clan’s ability to survive in a foreign ecology.”
One thing everyone should remember is that Zach's blood control is not as good as Eli's. Because of his own bloodline, Eli is not affected by the suppression of vampire bloodline for generations. Among ordinary vampires, Zac can exert the greatest effect by controlling blood and completely hiding his aura. However, due to the fact that Zac is already at the top of Toledo—most vampires are naturally suppressed by his high-level bloodline, Zac Gram's blood control ability is useless.
But for Assamites who live in the middle, controlling blood is an excellent ability to increase their stealth - vampires? There seems to be not much left in the central part~ The shortcoming of blood control ability in suppressing vampire blood is gone~ When the chaotic alien group in the central part faces a person who is hidden in (human) society and can be eliminated from the sense of existence A vampire clan with its own aura, everyone thinks Assamat has great advantages.
Murphy looked at Zach, "Teach me, now."
It's easy to talk to someone who has clear logic. (To be continued)
