Count Castern's mansion was huge, but there were very few people.
Other than the Earl, there were only a dozen servants and an old butler who lived in the castle all year round.
The old butler's name was Albert. He was a man of few words, but he was particularly attentive to the matters of the castle, big and small.
It was said that Albert's grandfather was Count Castern's butler. After his grandfather died, his father took over the job. Later, his father died of old age, and Albert became the new butler.
Three generations of his grandfather had followed the Earl.
Fang Qingyan felt that if nothing unexpected happened, the old butler's job could be passed down for ten generations!
Because the life of an Earl Blood Breed was too…long.
Count Castern had lived for more than 800 years, but this age was still the prime of his youth.
The lifespan of a commoner vampire would not exceed 300 years.
……
It took Fang Qingyan three hours to clean up the huge garden early in the morning.
The vampires were afraid of sunlight, so he had to finish his work outside before the sun rose.
After entering the villa, he walked up the stairs.
At the end of the corridor, there was a very large room.
After pushing open the door, rows of bookshelves that were more than two meters tall appeared in front of him. They were filled with all kinds of books. It was a dazzling sight that made one gasp in amazement.
It was comparable to a small library.
Fang Qingyan's job was to clean the study, remove the dust, and put the books that the Earl had read back in their original places.
The workload wasn't too great.
He quickly finished all the things he needed to do.
However, he did not immediately leave the study and return to his own room.
"System, I want to sign in at the study.”
Fang Qingyan called out to the system in her heart.
"Ding! [Sign in successful. Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Blood Clan's Secret Skill of Refinement and Blood Refinement!]”
A book suddenly appeared in his backpack.
He took it out, opened it, and immediately revealed a happy expression.
The Blood Breed's Blood Refinement Secret Technique was a meditation technique to condense blood and Qi and strengthen one's mental strength.
Although it couldn't help the Blood Breeds break through the limits of their life level, it could effectively consolidate their current level and increase the strength of their spiritual power.
The strength of the Blood Tribe was not only in their strong bodies.
As a supernatural creature, superpowers were also the specialty of the Blood Clan!
For example, telepathy, mind-reading, illusion creation, flight, emotional manipulation, weather manipulation…and even the ability to predict the future.
Superpowers were so powerful, but not every vampire could awaken them.
This was closely related to spiritual power.
Even if one awakened a superpower, the level of development would depend on the strength of one's spiritual power.
"This should be a secret of the royal family that the commoners can't obtain.”
Fang Qingyan thought to himself and put away the Blood Clan's Secret Art of Refinement and Refinement properly. He planned to study it properly when he returned to the house.
Then, he wandered around the study.
Not long after, his eyes lit up. He reached out and carefully pulled out a thick book from the bookshelf.
Origins of the Continent.
This was the name of the book.
It reminded Fang Qingyan of a documentary in his previous life. Perhaps he could get a glimpse of the tip of the iceberg of this foreign world from it.
After flipping open the title page impatiently, the first sentence made Fang Qingyan's eyes widen.
" Gods rule the world. The changes and developments of all things are the will of God."
Is this a theological book?
He read on patiently.
The more he read, the more shocked he became.
Fang Qingyan's worldview was subverted again.
This otherworld was completely different from Earth. The origin of species was not the so-called biological evolution theory, but the creation of gods.
For example, Lilith, the founding deity of the Sanguine!
Lilith was the first vampire in the world. Several eras ago, she descended into this world and created the nine princes with her own divine blood.
The nine great princes spread their branches and established the nine great clans of the Blood Race, respecting Lilith as the ancestor.
In this era, there were only seven of the Nine Super Clans left, and they were no longer as close as a family. There were many factions, and different factions fought to the death…but the Blood Breeds still believed in Lilith, the god.
No matter where you went, everyone's catchphrase was: "Oh ~ Progenitor Lilith above…"
What Fang Qingyan cared about the most was the part of the map that came with the book, Origin of the Continent.
The Kingdom of Niqara was located in the northwest of the Eastern Peninsula. It was only separated from the Kingdom of Azeroth by the Draenor Mountains. The war between the two countries had been burning for thousands of years.
However, the City of Lamia was the "Imperial Capital" of Niqara. No matter how fierce the orcs were, they would not be able to invade the ancestral land of the Blood Breeds.
……
" The Origin of the Continent " recorded the history of the origins and development of many races.
It even involved the human race.
Fang Qingyan was fascinated by the book and yearned for the description.
"You can actually read?"
Suddenly, a voice sounded in his ears.
Fang Qingyan was shocked. She quickly turned around and saw a middle-aged man in a gorgeous purple coat standing at the door of the study. He was handsome and had a refined aura.
He looked at Fang Qingyan with a smile in his eyes.
"Earl!"
Although Fang Qingyan was shocked, she reacted quickly. She quickly stood up and bowed." I didn't know that you were here and read the book without permission. Please forgive my mistake.”
Don't say that he was making a fuss.
This was Count Castin himself!
Last night, Fang Qingyan had only absorbed a drop of blood essence from an Earl, and her strength had increased by a hundred times.
One could imagine how terrifying this old vampire monster who had lived for more than 800 years was.
If it was an ordinary person, they would probably have peed their pants.
"Everyone has the right to learn knowledge.”
Castin waved his hand and smiled faintly." However, I'm a little surprised that a small servant can read.”
"My father once served a lord. That lord loved reading, so he learned a little and then taught it to me.”
Fang Qingyan explained with a proper attitude.
This was indeed the true experience of his predecessor. After transmigrating, he naturally inherited these things.
"Yes, it's good to like reading. We vampires are an elegant and noble race, different from those dirty orcs in Azeroth.”
Castin nodded and said to Fang Qingyan in a refined voice," Your name is Edward, right? After tidying up the study, I'll allow you to read for 30 minutes here, but that's on the condition that I don't use the study.”
Fang Qingyan was stunned and felt quite surprised.
During this period of time, he had personally experienced the cruelty of the strict hierarchy. In the eyes of the higher-ups, even civilians were just a group of ants.
Anyone with a title of nobility could act as if they were 20,000 to 80,000.
He didn't expect Count Casteine to be so easy-going…so close to the people!
"Thank you, Earl. I won't disturb your reading.”
Fang Qingyan politely left.
