Zach also waited for a while to give Nenad time to reflect on what he said.
But what is the saying? It probably means being so focused on a certain situation that it obscures the overall situation. What Nenad is too focused on here is Zach giving his Toledo advantage to people outside of the Sabbat.
Toledo, the situation in the Sabbat is already so bad - Zach is suppressed by Frank, his descendant is imprisoned by Lesembra, and his girlfriend is bound to the human identity of the Grand Funeral Home... But Zach is still Such a way to commit suicide.
Nenad probably couldn't understand what he said for a moment. Forget it, this matter can only be discussed alone in the future. Want Zach to talk to Nenad in front of the other members of the Sabbat that the ability to image is the ultimate reward of the Holy Master? This is really seeking death.
So, "If you put in the effort, you will get something. Since my mission is to stabilize and obtain information about the Assamite clan, you should be more concerned about what information I get in exchange for this sharing."
Yes, Zach is deliberately handing over the topic to Hamilton. As a member of the Sabbat leader Lesembra, he should consciously stand up at this time.
Why. But today, all three guys seemed a little out of shape. Zach made such an obvious statement, but Hamilton didn't notice it at all. Instead, we were picked up by Sid Revero, and his answer was pretty bad: "Zach! She can hear us!"
Tsk.
Is Sid stupid? Could it be that Murphy has been in Grand for so long and still doesn’t understand what the Sabbat thinks of the Assamite clan? Do you naively think that the Sabbat cannot see the situation in the central part of the Federation?
There are some things that everyone already knows. When interests are entangled, everyone is taking advantage of each other's relationships, testing, giving and taking away from each other all the time, to see who has the ability to gain an advantage. Gee, do you need to say this kind of thing? It's simply an insult to the intelligence of Assamat, Zach... everyone.
Zach doesn't want to deal with any of these three people now.
Turn around and leave the entertainment room again, letting these three guys think carefully about what they are here to do. Anyway, judging from their appearance, they are not in a hurry.
Taking advantage of this time, Zach went to the living area and directly woke up old Hank, who had gone to Newton to catch up with Winston last night, "We have business."
"No time!" Old Hank's attitude doesn't need to be described in detail.
Zach ignored it, "Use the most expensive materials and the most complicated processes to design the most expensive custom-made coffin. I want it before Thursday." Zach just came to issue work requirements.
"What? Doing coffin business??" Old Hank's question became interesting.
"Yeah." Zach had already left Old Hank's bedroom, "otherwise you would think it was a commission. Grand is a funeral home, my old Hank~ and you are still our coffin maker in Grand~" Everyone said to themselves Understand the meaning of this... Please be sure to relate the previous invitation by Winston to Old Hank.
After leaving the living area, Zach glanced towards the second floor of Grande. There was already a dispute between three guys in the recreation room. The content of the dispute... I couldn't tell clearly for a while. Anyway, it just means it will take some time.
Zach turned into the warehouse and felt the progress of Murphy Assamite's blood control.
Having had the ability to image in seconds, Zach no longer had any 'expectations' for Murphy's learning ability. The expectation in quotation marks here refers to the kind of expectation that usually occurs when you teach someone something that only you know, and you will imagine that you are a teacher. Even if you are not suitable to be a teacher, you will at least pretend to be a preacher.
This kind of gesture... Zach had no chance even if he wanted to pretend.
"Except for the fact that blood suppresses perception, I think you have completely mastered the blood control skills." Zach stated the facts in front of him.
"Then it's time to go back to the central part." Murphy glanced in the direction of Grande and responded to the conversation in the recreation room. "With the blood control skills, the brothers and sisters of our clan can move more freely in the central part. ." Don't doubt it, this is what Murphy told Nenad from a distance, that Toledo and Assamat share the advantage. And, "Now we can more easily figure out what the wizard family in the middle is planning, as well as the movements of other alien races." Yes, this is telling Sid Revro for Zach that Toledo's sharing has been replaced by What.
Instead of stupidly hiding your attitude towards Assamite, why not cheer for Assamt from the side! Huh, anyway, the Sabbat wouldn't dare to set foot in the central part of the country easily, right? So for the situation of the wizard families and foreign races in the central part, besides relying on Toledo to let Assamat get it, who else can they rely on
Some people have bad brains and just need some advice. Some people, tut tut, tut, tut, tut, tut, tut, tut, tut, tut, tut, tut, tut, tut, tut, tut, tut, if you don’t explain things clearly, they will remain stupid for the rest of their lives. Pitiful. The three guys in the rec room... It's probably the former.
Zach pouted and saw Murphy starting to pack things again, and frowned before leaving - because Zach discovered that Murphy put a lot of daily human necessities in the suitcase...
Before Zach could ask, "I'm going to the central part with Murphy~" Miley List took the initiative to answer the question.
As soon as Zach opened his mouth, he closed it and walked away quickly. What are your true thoughts? 'I don't want to know, I don't need to know. '
It's a pity that Toledo, who is well versed in people's hearts, cannot escape the fact that he also has a beating heart. When Zach re-entered Grande and went upstairs, he had already figured out why Miley wanted to go to the middle—
The cult apocalypse that Miley created in the Sabbat society is essentially a reactionary society. In addition to the relationship between humans and aliens, the most prominent issue in the Sabbat society is a contradiction that Miley, an antisocial element, cannot ignore. Discrimination against Indians based on settler ancestry.
We have discussed western society many times. The reason why western vampires have forgotten the fatal threat of Indian blood to vampires is that Indians cannot obtain any social resources in western society.
We have all seen how Wes was treated maliciously by people from the central wizard family because he came from the west (the wizard knew clearly that Wes was from Zach's side, but still refused to let Wes enter the Tower of Babel to investigate the case). We have never had direct contact with the Indians in the western society, but it is enough to make some assumptions. How much blood hatred would cause all the wizards in the middle of the country to hate a police detective who was clearly one of their own.
So, let’s make a bold guess that Miley went to the middle of the country to cause trouble. She might have created something before the Sabbat was ready to do anything to the central part, so that the Indians in the central part could take the initiative to do the Sabbat. That would be pretty good~
It reminded me of Wes being targeted by the wizard in the middle of the country, and it reminded Zach that the wizard's case was not closed... That's not right. The wizard's case at that time was originally caused by the wizard, so that he could use the police to investigate the social relations of the dead wizard and find out what the deceased wizard was doing in stealing the research information on the Tower of Babel.
But then the case disappeared from our perspective... It was no one's fault, we can recall - the crime scene was a fake scene created by the wizard, and they did not cooperate with the police detective's investigation. In addition, the case later evolved directly into the corpse of the wizard being taken away by Papa at the police station at midnight. In this case, no matter what the investigation, the only real evidence was gone and became Papa Midnight’s new subordinate (a werewolf and a death apostle).
Then, Ravenci returned, and Sibera no longer cared about it at all. The police station only wanted to deal with the body theft scandal that occurred in their own station. As a result, no one paid any attention to the whole case...
In fact, there is another person paying attention, but this person has other things on his hands for the time being and has no chance to come to Zach and tell him what he has overlooked. This man was Thorin Rimmer, who was in the Tower of Babel and told Zach what the wizard and Rimmer were studying, Thorin Rimmer.
Not to mention the people who would not appear in front of Zach for the time being, Zach entered the recreation room for the third time. This time there were no opening remarks from fellow funeral industry colleagues, and the stage was completely given to the three Sabbat vampires.
The first person to speak was still Sid, "Sius Revero wants me to tell you that although he doesn't like Kent Wash, because he is your new descendant, he will cooperate with him and take care of him as much as possible. he."
The focus is all on word choice.
Hughes doesn't like Kent—
This is normal. Hughes and Zach rescued Kent once when Kent was still a human (Kent was a novice white user). One day later, the rescued guy changed from a human to his vampire brother. Judging from the social perception of Sabbat vampires, has someone's status risen too quickly~
In addition, Kent is also friends with Mr. Indian (Necromancer in Paradise). This is obviously the relationship between vampires and alien souls that Hughes cannot accept normally, coupled with the sensitive attributes of Indian souls. Hey, everyone can imagine.
cooperate-
Zach did leave everything about Newton to Kent, especially the list of people who died from Xiaobai's withdrawal reaction. Hughes should have seen the inevitable direction of the Xiaobai incident from the fact that Kent suddenly became a vampire. If we want to avoid a large number of deaths in Newton, and the deaths of those who have the only social resources in this city: the novice users who have been discussed with you before and are still alive are some of them in Newton. Means of humanity.
Don't forget that Zach expressed very bluntly to Hughes that if Newton's society collapsed, Revro couldn't expect to accomplish anything big with Newton, a shabby city. Because Barton's forces will inevitably pour into Newton, which is full of holes, to repair it personally. Huh, Revro, who can't even deal with angels, black witches, and phantoms, will have no chance of surviving under Barton's influence.
Then, cooperation is inevitable, and Hughes must obtain from Kent a list of humans who must die as humans, but as vampires can continue to play a role in the city. Isn’t that true~
take care of-
This is the thank you given to Toledo by Hughes Revro on behalf of Revro. Zach really showed Revro the right path in Newton. This gratitude is enough to make Hughes take care of Toledo's new son for Zach against his will~
Zach didn't expect that one sentence could sum it up so completely, so he nodded to Sid, "Well, is that what you want to say? Is there anything else?"
"No more." He simply said~
Zach had nothing to say, "Would you like to go back first, or the two waiting for you here..." He looked at Nenad and Hamilton, the two who had just argued.
Sid's eyes flickered back and forth between his two companions, and his final choice was, "You two, go back to Allen, and I will speak for you." Sid's expression was firm, as if he didn't want to endure it anymore because he didn't want to It feels like being complicit with any party and passively being treated as a sandwich. For his sandwich, he had to abandon the biscuits on both sides and serve as the main course.
Hamilton, who was the first to refute, naturally had the highest status. To be honest, there is a reason why Hamilton is not doing well. As a leader, he is only sensitive when his authority is questioned. "You think you are..."
"I am neither of them. But you two have argued enough. It's not that you don't want to find out about Lesembra. You also know about it." Then he looked at Nenad, "As for you, from the beginning I don't understand why you mess with Hamilton..."
There were still people who realized that Nenad had accidentally exposed something.
Sid continued, "But I have heard your reasons, and I will convey them to you, or you can try to say them yourself when Hamilton interrupts you at any time." The final summary, to two people at the same time, "You guys , either go together or stay together, anyway, I won’t accompany you anymore, you can choose for yourself.”
Zach had already sat on the sofa, just waiting for the results.
"Wise choice." Sid did not show off, saying goodbye to his two departing companions, "See you at Allen's funeral."
After waiting for a while, it was confirmed that both Hamilton and Nenad were completely away from Grande.
"Lesembra is torturing your descendant Charlie." Sid used one sentence to pull Zach out of his leisurely mood. "Lute Lesembra directly used lynching. Of course, this is what Capadocia said, Every decision of Lute Lesembra is open to the Sabbat, but other clans cannot influence his decisions."
It is true that Zach is no longer leisurely, but not in the way Sid thought - Sid put the fact that Charlie was suffering in the first place, so naturally he thought Zach would care about the current situation of his descendants. Zach does care, but we know what Zach cares about, right.
Yesterday’s conversation with Murphy made it clear to us that Zach decided to use Lute Lesembra to target himself, Toledo, abnormally. The current situation seems to be developing in this direction.
Zach was silent for a while, "Then I can take it as saying that Cappadocia is against Lesembra's execution of my descendants. Are there any other clans like Cappadocia?"
"Giovanni," Sid answered.
Giorgio Giovanni is worthy of being Zach’s rare foreign friend. But that's not the point. Zach glanced at Sid, "What about you?" Where's Revro? You just expressed your gratitude to Toledo. Now that the descendants of Toledo are suffering, what is your attitude, Revro
Sid frowned, "I don't have an attitude. I'm in Patton, so I don't need to have an attitude towards what's happening in the west."
Zach nodded, accepting the statement. Sid is indeed smart. These words do not represent any group, do they? He separated himself from the Refro clan and used his own facts to avoid Zach's conscience questioning.
But Zach naturally wanted to ask more questions. Sid dared to stay and be the microphone between the two of them, so he should be mentally prepared, "So you think Nenad, who is also here, doesn't need to go out of his way to mess with Hamilton for this. Is it."
"Yes." Sid shook his head, "I have felt that something was wrong with Nenad before. I can understand that he likes you, and thank you for giving the Cappadocia clan the opportunity to rise. But..." There is still something to see. People who care about the overall situation, like this Sid. Nenad's unconditional defense of Zach on various occasions finally made people with discerning eyes notice, "Nenad..." But Sid didn't seem to be able to confirm what it was, "Forget it. Nenad is more worthy of respect than me. people."
Sid is also self-aware and knows that he is not worthy of respect for his withdrawal and not speaking out for the descendants of Toledo.
He was so self-conscious that Zach was embarrassed to press forward. He waved his hand and said, "What does Hamilton have to say?" He just let it go and pushed forward.
"Hamilton is here to convince you to hand over the secret key to heaven's door."
"Persuasion?" Zach raised his eyebrows. Wasn't it an order
Sid understood Zach's question, "The Sabbat did give Hamilton an order." But didn't the order fall to Zach? "But Hamilton doesn't want to do it." There was a pause.
Zach looked at Sid, "Just say it."
"Lute Lesembre seems determined to bypass you to obtain the secret of the key to the gates of heaven. He has Hamilton capture your descendants at Barton, Louise or 'General', and 'General' Men."
Zach looked away. The predictions made during yesterday's discussion with Murphy were absolutely correct. Root Lesenbra's paranoia about Zach was indeed hopeless. Huh, bypass Zach? ? In Root's mind, Zach is so unbearable that he no longer wants to be touched at all~
"Kent Wash?" Zack didn't look at Sid.
"First, Hamilton himself doesn't want to go around you and do anything to your descendants. Second, as I just said (what Hughes is going to convey and Sid's own words), if Hamilton wants to do anything to Kent Wash What you want to do is to force me to have an attitude towards what happens in the west. I, Revro." This time Sid represented the position, it was necessary, it was related to Revro's interests - "I will stand with Nenad. Hamilton understands this. So he wants to convince you to take matters into your own hands."
Zach smiled and narrowed his eyes, "Haha, so it sounds like you three guys are actually from the same country~ You are all trying to save my descendants of Toledo~"
right! To sum up, aren’t the three of them all descendants of Toledo who are protecting the side
Nenard wants to save the tortured Charlie, Sid wants to keep Kent in Newton, and Hamilton doesn't want to touch Louise and the 'General'.
Sid curled his lips and said, "Tsk. Yes." Why deny the fact~
"Okay, I heard everything." Zach kept smiling, "Do you want to stay here for a while and let the two people calm down and figure it out, or do you want to go back now?"
Very simply, "I'll wait."
"Yeah." Zach stood up and left the entertainment room, "There are movies under the TV cabinet and food in the basement. Feel free to do whatever you want, just treat this place as your own home~" (To be continued)
