The setting sun was replaced by night. In a place like Southern District where artificial light sources are not enough to cover up natural phenomena, the night is still quite obvious. On the land corresponding to the sky, except for the buildings created by human civilization, everything is in darkness.
Zach in Grandli is a human building, and it should do things that represent human civilization—it must be distinguished from the darkness outside the light source, right
But Zach didn't. Zach gets a call from Frank.
"Do you remember the map of the Zmich Civil War that Bob and I analyzed together at your place?"
It was Frank who started the topic.
Although Zach didn't think Root Lesembra would monitor his father Frank's words and deeds in the West, there was no need to be careless.
The fact that Frank can make this call shows that Frank can move at least more freely than Bob, the ancestor of the Zmich family. But if you think about it carefully, all the 'beings' worthy of Frank's contact in this era are in the Sabbat. There is no need for Frank to use the long-distance communication methods invented by humans.
Therefore, Zach was not going to control the rhythm of the conversation and let Frank express what he wanted to express as quickly as possible and complete the call.
It's always good to err on the side of caution.
"Remember."
"Then do you remember that we came to the conclusion that Root wanted to deceive Bob and hide his involvement in the civil war in Zmich from the beginning?"
"Remember."
"Lute told me why."
Zach said nothing, obviously Frank would explain himself.
"There are two factions in Tsimishi. The one led by Roy who attacked you is a faction that is friendly to the federal military. It controls most of the resources of the Tsmishi clan, and its industries are concentrated in the areas that have been divided up by other Sabbat clans. Weapons manufacturing industry. The other faction, which does not have many resources in the Zmish, is the second generation Zmish who tried to replace Roy as the head of the Zmish family during the civil war. The name of the leader will not be mentioned. He is dead. Yeah, but there’s something you might want to know, this bunch of Zmichs are the ones behind the medical experiment that Root is trying to take for himself.”
"Isn't medical experimentation Roy's side job?" Zach was a little surprised.
"No. Roy's concealment of the disappearance of the Zmich messenger (Craig) was just an introduction. The root of the Zmich civil war was actually the struggle for resource distribution between the two groups of Zmich. In the past century, this kind of There has always been competition." Frank suddenly laughed, "It's quite real, isn't it? It's completely linked to the progress of human science and technology. There was nothing to fight for before, until human civilization provided the possibility of using weapons to extend the body's functions and using medical treatments. Explore your own secrets. The differences in Zmixi are getting wider and wider, and the more gorgeous faction has the upper hand~"
Zach also sighed with some sigh. Vampires also have science... But now is not the time to sigh. This phone call is not suitable to drag on for too long. "Don't sigh. You said that there have always been such battles. Why is it so serious this time?"
"Because of soul expansion." Frank's heart also tightened quickly. "Zmich from the North Kingdom who used his body to 'produce' Ban Lin used soul expansion on you in Barton. Apparently, Zmich from the Sabbat of the Medical Experimental School saw it. Their real goal is something a hundred times more meaningful than Roy's human 'toy'."
Zach raised his eyebrows. Zach, who had been attacked by Roy, had a lot to say - "Compared to the limited physical damage of human weapons, the attack power and scope of application of soul expansion are much higher."
"That's it." Frank sped up, because Zach on the other side of the receiver had obviously caught up. "Actually, you know that, too, don't you? Roy also took the initiative to show kindness to you." He paused and let Zach Gram completed.
Zach raised his eyebrows again, so that's it - "Roy took the initiative to make an agreement with me, asking me to contact Riemer in the Tower of Babel to help Zmich study Zmich's self-healing ability. Roy himself also noticed that he The potential of the opposition, trying to do something, balance the chips.”
"Yes, Roy tried his best, but not only did you reject him directly, you also provoked him and made him attack you with human weapons like a clown after you experienced no damage to your soul expansion. Immediately afterwards, the identity of Zmich’s messenger Craig was revealed~”
Zach sighed, "It seems I really made Roy a joke."
Frank answered quickly, "So Root gave up on Roy." The topic came back, "Root knew that Craig had the identity of a Zimich messenger and had a natural advantage over Bob, the ancestor of the family. He Root didn't He may have obtained the benefits of soul expansion from Zimich in the North Kingdom, so he immediately changed hands and started supporting the medical experimentalists here in the Sabbat to seize Zimich's rights."
Zach said nothing again.
Frank continued, "Do you remember your intended descendant? Brother Dog told you that someone in Zmich secretly gave him the location of the Civil War battle."
Zach had a premonition, "Is it Roy?"
"Yes. Because Roy, who you turned into a clown, knew that he could not resist Zmich's trend, and became the opposite of Root. It must be a very desperate move for him to send the message to the dog brother~"
Zach was quiet for a while, "Is Roy still alive?"
"I don't know. When Bob and Craig arrived at the Sabbat, Root took care of the remnants of the Zmich clan himself." Frank laughed, "But guess what, Clay How did G and Bob know that Root was hiding the Zmich medical experiment?"
Zach's mouth tilted, "Someone secretly sent a message to the two people who now represent the top leaders of the Zmich clan."
"Yes~" Frank continued to laugh, "All the actions of Bob and Craig are monitored by Root, and it is difficult for them to spread the news to the outside world, so I came to do this job for them~"
Zach's face darkened again, "What do you mean?"
"Please prepare more food reserves in the past few days. There may be a refugee who will seek refuge with you~"
"Roy? He came to see me??" Tsk, is this the result that Zach got after he thoughtfully asked Frank to express his opinion
"Haha, poor Roy, he offended the master of the Sabbat, Lute Lesembra. Who else in this world can accept his surrender~"
"It's not me anyway."
"Haha, you don't have to argue with me~ I brought the words to you, and I also explained clearly the cause and effect, the ups and downs~ You can do whatever you want~" After saying that, without giving Zach a chance, "The ancestor of the Cappadocia clan, Max Ka Padosiya is next to me, want to say hi?”
Zach didn't agree.
"Hello, Ancestor of the Toledo clan." The receiver has changed its target, and, "Am I speaking to this? Are you sure he can hear it?"
Frank's voice, "Yes, he can hear it through the microphone, no matter how far away it is~ It's amazing~ Human technology~"
"Oh. Hello, Ancestor of the Toledo clan."
Zach was greeted twice in a row by a boy's voice, and he didn't know what to say for a moment—
This is a phone call. Do you remember Zach meeting Frank, do you remember Zach meeting Mokawi? No matter what your mental state is, superficial respect is necessary for meetings across time... But how do you express this respect on the phone? Bow to the air? Can the other side receive it? ? Human technology is not so magical yet.
"It seems like he can't hear." The boy's voice reappeared after receiving no response, "Well, maybe I can't hear what he said."
"Uh, I didn't hear that either... was the line disconnected?" Frank's uncertain voice was approaching in the background.
Zach died - let's take advantage of the era gap between the two clan ancestors on the opposite side... Some superficial skills are necessary and cannot be ignored because of the times. (To be continued)
