Standing on the edge of the roof of Barton's tallest building, the Yuri Hotel, Zach expanded his field of vision to its limits. Looking for Gangrel's ancestor? No, Zach knew what he was looking for.
Regarding Gangro, let me tell you a bit of history.
In the early days of the gathering of the Thirteen Clans, some bored vampires were curious about why Gangro's transformation ability was in the form of bat and wolf. Among this group of boring vampires is our Zach. Of course Zach has his own reasons. As Toledo, Zach needs to understand what kind of characters his allies are. Unlike Lesembra, Giovanni, Bruch, who are already quite familiar... Gangello is quite unfamiliar to Toledo.
At that time, the Gangro clan asked the thirteen clan ancestors to bring them to the New World, so they had to deal with this problem. Bats are nocturnal creatures; wolves are creatures that humans fear.
Then no one continued to ask this question.
In the early days of the formation of the Secret Alliance, this issue was brought up again. But it's not because the vampires of the Secret Alliance are bored, but because the Secret Alliance in the Central Secret Alliance has to face the threat of the central wizard family and the werewolf combination.
This may disappoint everyone, because it is not Toledo or our vampire Zach who brings up this issue again.
Zach is busy planning how to drive a wedge between the wizard family and the werewolves, and eliminate the threat of the secret alliance...
The person who asked the question was the more serious Assamaite clan. They asked Gangluo to give an answer. The werewolf inherited the state change from Gangluo and why it was a wolf.
Don’t think this question is boring, imagine if Papa Midnight’s creation was not a wolf but a bat~ Not to mention that the pressure on the Secret Alliance is greatly reduced now, even when the thirteen clans were still united in the war, the vampire’s losses would not be so great Are wolf's teeth more lethal or bat's teeth? Comparing size, yes.
Assamat felt that as long as Gangro told them honestly what the principle of their form changes was, and if this 'principle' existed, Assamt would be able to find a way to restrain the werewolf threat.
Everyone knows the result. Toledo drove a wedge between the werewolves and the wizard family, causing the two parties to begin to hate each other. The threat of the Secret Alliance was successfully lifted. In the crisis of the Secret Alliance, Assamat... was of no use. .
But Assamat asked for the answer.
Gangro said that bats once did not have the ability to walk by day. They need a suitable form to survive. People who do not accept human civilization cannot find a cave during the day and wait for dark, so they become bats and hang on the rock wall. Go to bed, safe and reasonable.
The moment the thirteen clans were determined, the shape of the bat lost its meaning of existence. Gangrels also maintain their wolf form during the day to hunt, instead of sleeping in caves as bats. But because the bat form is common to many Gangaros, it was retained.
As for why a werewolf is a werewolf, it's probably because when Papa met Gangelo at midnight, Gangero was a wolf. The bat's blood did not reach Papa Midnight's hands.
After receiving such an answer, Assamat could not continue his train of thought. Seal this, uh, 'knowledge' into the Secret Alliance's knowledge reserve, and then calmly watch as Toledo takes the credit for eliminating the threat...
In the Secret Alliance, apart from Assamat, the only one who has opened this knowledge may be Zach. The reason is also very simple, Zach does not want any member of the Secret Alliance to feel that he is useless to the alliance. Yes, Zach only asked about Assamat's discovery out of concern for the stability of the Secret Alliance.
Zach's performance was very good. At the secret celebration banquet at that time, he took Assamite to discuss the transformation of Gangrel's form, and explained to every vampire who came to congratulate him that in solving the werewolf threat, he was not the only one. Toledo is working hard, and Assamat.
Hey, Zach worked really hard... Forget it, let's not talk about it anymore.
The key point is how proficient Zach is in social activities. Needless to say, Zach is not trying to pull Asamat to chat with people because of his failed plan, but "In the future, we will find a way for Gangro to integrate into our society." For the new alliance's approach, Asamat's discovery of Gangaro is very important! We can find a way to use Gangaro's abilities in a meaningful way for the Alliance!" There's nothing wrong with that.
The problem is Assamat, who has no emotions and only pursues facts: "Your hopes will not come true."
Of course Zach asks, "Why?"
"Gangelo doesn't want to be relevant to the league."
"Hehehe, if only you had said that..."
"It's not what I said, it's the truth. Gangaro has the ability to survive as any living creature. He just doesn't want to survive as a human being."
When the Thirteen Clans were convened, everyone knew that Gangaro hated human civilization, so Zach had no problem with the last sentence. He was a little helpless, but, no problem. The question in question is, "Any living thing?"
"Gangro never said they could only turn into bats and wolves. These two choices are just the most reasonable. One walks at night and the other is afraid of humans. If the Holy Lord had not given us the ability to walk by day before we came to this continent, Today’s werewolves are half as likely to be bats.”
The history is over.
Zach no longer remembers which Assamite he was having a conversation with at that time, and there is no need to remember, since he must have died in the Republic anyway. But Zach always remembered this passage.
Gangrel is a creature that can survive as any creature, except that it doesn't want to be human.
Zach still didn't know if the first half of this sentence was correct, but when Zach was at the highest point of the city, overlooking the entire city, a creation of human civilization, he really didn't know what he was looking for. Because it seems that in addition to buildings, what we see are people, which is something Gangro does not want to do.
Who determines the characteristics of a clan? It is the ancestor of the clan. All descriptions about Gangroro come from the standards set by this clan ancestor for the inheritance of this bloodline.
And on top of that, Zach also knows a little more than others, and that is the... self-esteem of the Gangrel clan ancestor, which comes back to...
Zach stretched out his hand to pull Scott, who was about to free fall from the tallest building in Barton, back to a safe position, then waved his hand and slapped Scott with his eyes closed, "Are you afraid of heights and are you coming here? Don't you want to live anymore?"
Yes, Scott is still with Zach, and only he knows the reason for being so persistent.
Scott's body was completely supported by Zach, and a slap mark began to take shape on his pale face, which was pink. This guy opened his eyes in confusion, uh, he just recovered from a coma... He said blankly, "I, am I afraid of heights?"
Zach pulled Scott and pushed him to the edge of the roof. Scott glanced down, his head drooped, and he fainted again. Zach pulled the man back again and slapped him again on the other side of the face, "You are afraid of heights, remember?"
Scott looked at Zach in confusion, "Oh... oh."
Zack let go of Scott and looked at the sky. It was noon. He had been wandering around the city all morning and found nothing, so he thought of coming to the highest point of the city. But looking at this, there is nothing to look forward to, so forget it, give up.
Zach started walking back, "Back to Grande."
"Going back?" Scott rubbed both sides of his face and followed up, "Don't you see that Gangrel clan ancestor?"
"Gone." Zach complained again, "If he really wants to see me, would he know where to find me and ask me to find him? He thinks highly of me..." He didn't finish his complaint.
A pigeon that had just stood with Zach on the edge of the roof for three minutes while Zach was overlooking Barton spoke, "Isn't it good that I look up to you?"
Zach turned back and looked at the pigeon.
The pigeon was also looking at Zach, with green bean-sized eyes, looking at him without blinking.
The silence lasted for half a minute. Scott said, "Ah! The pigeon has spoken!!!" He persisted in following Zach all morning, but at this moment he failed. Scott ran away as fast as he could. Leave this human alone.
Zach watched Scott run away mainly to make sure that this guy didn't really go crazy and jump off the building. Then he looked back at the pigeon and said, "You can become a pigeon." The tone was different, but it was indeed a question.
The pigeon spreads its wings and its shape changes the moment it leaves the ground. A man stood in front of Zach, "I can still become a human."
Strange answer. But Zach couldn't care so much, so he took off his coat and tried to put it on the Gangrel ancestor...but without touching him, the Gangrel ancestor's form changed again and turned into a pigeon again.
Zach pinched his coat and frowned, "Is it interesting?" Yes, it was an unpleasant question.
"Interesting. Now you have found me." The pigeon flapping its wings flew into the air, "Go to where you live and tell me about Simon Gangro."
"Are you playing tricks on me on purpose?" he continued to question.
The pigeon had flown far away, and Zach didn't get an answer.
Return to the topic that was interrupted just now.
The pride of the ancestors of the Gangaro clan.
Let’s talk about history again.
On the way to the continent (crossing the ocean), the thirteen clans and human soldiers gathered in a closed human transport to discuss plans for the continent.
Everyone is very self-aware and knows that colonization is a glorified term, invasion is the essence, and war is inevitable.
The human soldiers did not have a very clear idea of their positioning. It was the vampires of the thirteen clans who needed to plan their roles.
Three of the Thirteen Clans were initially assigned to combat duties: Bruh, who is known for his blood proliferation, Tsmich, who is known for his body's ability to fuse combat organs of other species, and the one who claims to be the first human being since the emergence of human civilization. The biggest threat to the expansion of civilization, hahaha, everyone can think of it, yes, Gangro. Although no one expects Gangro to do anything in formal battles, as long as Gangro can cause trouble to the indigenous Indian tribes in the wild, everyone will be satisfied.
Yes, from the beginning, everyone didn't think much of the Gangro clan.
However, the title of Gangro Fighting Clan was taken away from the Thirteen Clans before they arrived on this continent. By Toledo.
Because at sea, the vampires saw the predatory species in the sea, the Kraken. Human soldiers have, well, zero combat effectiveness. But vampires have little experience fighting outside of land. At that time, Toledo, Zachary Toledo, when no one wanted to be the villain who pushed the alliance out, he came up with a 'good' idea and drew lots to decide who among the three fighting clans would test the waters.
Zach, pulled out the Gangaro, and told the Gangaro clan tactfully that this was just the time to prove their ability. The result of the battle was the defeat of Gangaro.
Ancestor of the Gangro clan, 'hate' Zach. It's not because he has a problem with his own self-esteem, but because he was pushed by Zachary Toredo to a place where he had to prove his self-esteem, and then was treated as a joke that proved nothing. At this point, this Gangrel clan ancestor treats people badly. As long as it has something to do with Zach, he must first respect himself, and then turn Zach into a joke!
How to do it? As above.
