Skill extraction from Dragon Clan

Chapter 627 Plot Transition
"It's impossible to untie you. You'd better stay here quietly until we have finished 'venting'."

A deep voice came from behind Femto, causing him to freeze as he hung on the arch. He turned around with difficulty, and only then could he see clearly the other thirteen kings behind him.

"Hey, everyone is here. Ahahaha..."

"Yes, thanks to you, except for the lucky fellow King Despair who stayed on the 'other side' and didn't come back, everyone else is here!"

The tall figure of the Tyrannical King stood in the front and looked at Fimto, clenching his left and right hands into fists.

Only under the starry sky could one see clearly that each of the thirteen kings, who originally had gorgeous appearances, looked extremely embarrassed.

Just like the tyrannical king standing at the front of the group, his clothes were also burned with big holes one after another, and his originally pitch-black body now became a little darker.

The others were not much better, with black and white patches all over their bodies.

Including the paranoid king Alykira who had been sitting on the chair since a while ago. The hem of her gorgeous skirt was burned, and the ponytail on her head became messy and smelled burnt.

Even the iron-gray mask covering her head was burned and melted and deformed, so that her single eye was exposed in the center.

As for the culprit who made these people so embarrassed, it was naturally Feimto who was now tied and hung on the arch.

Strictly speaking, it was the hellfire released by the synthetic humanoid annihilation weapon he created.

Zheng Shu's initial estimation was correct. Once something like the hellfire came into contact with any material world, it would be a world-destroying disaster. It was definitely not something that could be stopped by one or two superior beings like the Thirteen Kings.

After the dark space of Fimto was exploded, a lot of hellfire scattered from the dark space to the other world.

The reason why the other world could be saved was entirely because Zheng Shu contacted the other thirteen kings when he discovered the explosion of the dark space, and got everyone to help together to barely extinguish all the leaked regional karma fires.

Moreover, even when the thirteen kings attacked together, the other world was still burned by flames for seven days and seven nights.

The rapidly expanding hellfire in just seven days caused countless losses to the entire alien world. Fortunately, the outer area of ​​Feimto's dark space was a sparsely populated area, which prevented the losses from being maximized.

This process was certainly not easy. Although no one suffered serious injuries, basically everyone was covered in dirt and dust from the flames.

Being burned for seven days for no reason would make anyone in a good mood.

I'm afraid that since becoming the Thirteen Kings, this group of people have rarely been so embarrassed, so when facing Femto, they will naturally not let him go easily.

Feimuto knew that he had made a big fuss this time. As he watched the crowd gradually gather around him, cold sweat ran down his back. He began to struggle frantically, looking like a jumping silkworm pupa:

"Wait, I think we can talk!"

Looking at the "silkworm chrysalis" in front of them, several of the thirteen kings, including the Tyrannical King, showed cruel smiles on their faces:

"No, we will pay for it ourselves."

Looking at the people pressing forward, Feimuto let out his "final" scream: "Help!!!"

……

……

Zheng Shu naturally had no idea about Feimto's tragic experience in the other world. In fact, even if he knew, he probably wouldn't help him. Instead, he would most likely step on him a few times.

But he doesn't want to pay attention to those things now.

The cocktail party in Libra was indeed of high quality, and at least the food in the buffet restaurant was quite good.

With delicious food soothing his soul, Zheng Shu's heart gradually calmed down.

Unlike Zheng Shu, whose stomach capacity seemed to have no upper limit, although Leo ate a lot at the beginning, he soon reached his limit and now collapsed on a sofa next to him with a big belly.

Next to him, Libra's equipment trainer Patrick and his petite assistant Nika were also sitting here.

However, despite being at such a high-end cocktail party, these two people looked like they were having dinner at a food stall.

Patrick held a large glass of cheap beer in his hand and drank one glass after another, seemingly trying to drink back the non-existent "cost".

Nika next to her was not allowed to drink alcohol because she was not yet an adult, but she also indulged in various junk foods.

From fried chicken, hamburgers to pizza and French fries, her seemingly thin body was like a black hole. Leo had never seen her stop since she sat on this sofa.

Leo was secretly shocked by this horrific appetite. He kept shifting his gaze back and forth between Nika and Zheng Shu, trying to see if the two had any special blood relationship.

On the other side, Zapp finally got away from his lover and arrived late.

He put his hands in his pockets and strode to the door of the reception hall.

As soon as I opened the door, I saw K.K. standing behind the door holding a bottle of wine. I was so scared that my hair stood on end:

"Wow!! Sister... you are such a rare guest."

K.K., who was a little drunk, immediately grabbed Zapp's head with one hand and said, "You're going too far, little Zapp. Does it bother you that much that I come to the cocktail party? You're treating me differently!

And I've been meaning to say this for a long time, why don't you fight me with your fists and feet like you did to Little Klaus?"

"If I really did that, it would turn into a real fight... Sister, you don't know what it means to show mercy..."

Zapp didn't dare to resist K.K at all and could only mutter to himself.

Klaus and Stephen, who had disappeared at first, seemed to have completed their work and appeared at the party.

When Zapp saw the two men, his eyes lit up. He carefully moved his feet and tried to get in front of the two men to get away. Unfortunately, K.K discovered his thoughts and grabbed his collar with one hand again.

"Really? It's like this again! You can't even say a few words to me before you start talking to men. I hate it most when a group of grown men get together to drink and chat, and they always exclude me."

K.K. drank the wine while shaking the Zapp in his hand vigorously.

"Wait, spare me."

Zapp, who had been attending the cocktail party with great enthusiasm, became completely depressed. Klaus and Stephen in front of him could only laugh awkwardly at this scene.

However, it was the laughter of these two people that made K.K., who was already drunk, change his target.

"Haha, you idiot, I didn't give you permission to laugh, Scarface."

"Uh……"

Seeing that K.K. turned his target to him, Stephen seemed a little embarrassed.

Under the influence of alcohol, K.K. came to Stephen and almost poked his face with his outstretched finger, as if he was still angry about the fact that he had excluded himself from Klaus's search for the elders of Alul El.

"You are such a sinister guy, you are not trustworthy at all."

"Ahahahaha... K.K., why are you picking on me after drinking today?"

Facing the big sister of Libra, even Stephen, the leader of the group, seemed a little weak, and could only smile helplessly in the face of K.K.'s accusations.

K.K was about to say something else, but then he noticed a pair of eyes looking at him.

Following the feeling, I looked and saw Zhen sitting obediently on the sofa with a drink in her hands.

Jane's behavior today was completely different from usual. It seemed that she took advantage of the fact that there were so many people around her and became much bolder than usual. Her eyes kept lingering on Stephen.

"Tsk!"

K.K secretly said "tsk" and as a person who had been through this, he could naturally see that Jane admired Stephen. After all, the girl's performance was too obvious.

Even though what she said was true, K.K. still felt condemned by his conscience for saying bad things about the person he liked in front of a little girl, so he could only grab the bottle and turn around and leave.

"Forget it. I won't talk to you anymore. It makes me sound like a bad person."

Patrick also changed the subject at the right time: "But it's nice to have some fun like this occasionally. You've all been working too hard recently."

Zapp had sneaked away at some point, so Klaus and Stephen sat on the two sofas in front of Leo.

Klaus was still dressed like a gentleman, and it seemed that he had just finished work and rushed over.

He sat on the sofa, ignoring the mess on the small table in front of him.

Taking advantage of the gap between Stephen and Patrick's casual chat, he seemed to want to join in, so he looked at Leo gently with a cup of black tea:

"How have you been lately? You should have adapted to life in this city, right?"

Facing his boss's question, Leo immediately straightened up: "Yes, you are right!"

Stephen and Patrick next to them looked at the two people talking, and the same thought flashed through their minds:

"This person...as soon as he opened his mouth, it felt like he was interviewing."

Klaus was not aware of this at all, or he felt that his behavior should be smoothly integrated into the cocktail party, so he continued to ask Leo with a gentle smile:
"So how do you feel? I mean... because of your uniqueness, in this city that is already full of weird things, you have to see more outrageous things. Do you feel a lot of burden..."

"Ah, this is becoming more and more like an interview!"

Patrick, Stephen, Nika, Jane who had squeezed onto the sofa next to them, and Zheng Shu all thought the same thing.

Leo didn't think too much about it. Instead, he felt that Klaus's question helped him ease some of the embarrassment:
"Yeah, sometimes I feel like I'm the suspicious one in the eyes of others. Just like on the way here just now, I saw someone emitting a large piece of red light that looked like wings..."

As soon as these words were spoken, the group of people around who had been shaking their heads and chatting animatedly just now suddenly fell silent for a moment.

Leo didn't notice this and continued talking:

"…Because it was so beautiful, I couldn't help but make a sound, and then…Huh?!"

Because everyone around him was focusing their attention on him, even a slow-witted person like Leo could notice it, so he realized something was wrong.

When he looked up, he found that people had returned behind him without him knowing. This sudden scene made Leo a little overwhelmed, and he thought he had said something wrong.

After confirming the key clues, everyone at Libra immediately went to work.

The phonograph that was playing music was turned off, and the entire hall became silent. The originally colorful spotlights were turned into a monotonous white, and the beams of light gathered like a judgment and projected onto Leo's head.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, at that moment, Leo had an illusion, as if he had suddenly come from a party venue to the courtroom of a police station.

The small table in front of the sofa, which was originally littered with cups and plates, was cleaned up in the blink of an eye, and a thick notebook that looked quite old was thrown on the table.

Klaus confirmed again with a serious expression: "Leonardo, what did you just say? Are you sure it was the dazzling crimson light that looked like wings?"

The gazes of the people around him and Klaus' serious tone put Leo under tremendous pressure. He swallowed involuntarily and nodded.

"Ah, uh, yes."

Stephen flipped open the notebook on the table, quickly found a red bookmark and showed it to Leo:
"So, is this the color, exactly?"

Leo was somewhat surprised at the accuracy of the color the other party was looking for: "Ah, yes, it's this color."

Hearing his confirmation, the people around them immediately started talking, with a few sighs in between, while Klaus and Stephen looked at each other in silence without saying anything for a while.

Leo seemed a little overwhelmed in such an atmosphere: "...What's wrong? Did something happen?"

Zapp appeared from behind Leo and said triumphantly, "Let me teach you, you ignorant idiot... What you saw was a vampire."

"What's with that tone of yours? Do you think you're the king? Are you playing a cheap role-play?"

Leo complained about it mercilessly, then looked around for someone more trustworthy to ask, and then saw Zheng Shu standing next to him to join in the fun: "What the hell is going on?!"

"Wow, you little brat, you actually ignored me?!" Zapp yelled beside him.

"Hmm?" Zheng Shu was stunned. He didn't expect Leo to ask him. "You are talking about this. The noble being with crimson wings - this is what is recorded in the famous ancient documents. I remember that the scientific name of that thing should actually be called Blood Boundary Dependent."

Stephen also helped Leo explain: "According to research results, vampires are real. Their appearance is no different from that of humans. They are high-level immortals. No optical instrument can observe their images, but... it seems that your eyes can recognize them."

Stephen's words were a bit abrupt, but everyone present who knew that Leo had the Prosthetic Eye of God understood that this meant that Leo's Prosthetic Eye of God could do more than they had initially expected.

"So what you're seeing is, vampires."

"What? Vampires...that's unbelievable!" Leo looked solemn.

"It's not just a matter of vampires. The dialectical method recorded here is a way to identify the elders."

Zheng Shu's voice attracted Leo's attention. Turning around, he saw Zheng Shu standing next to Stephen at some point, using his height to easily look at the notebook in his hand.

"When did he come?" Stephen's heart skipped a beat. Before Zheng Shu spoke, he hadn't noticed anyone approaching.

"Elder?" Leo was a little confused.

"The first thirteen vampires who appeared were respected as elders. Of course, after so many years of development, many vampires have evolved into elders over a long period of time, but only those thirteen are truly respected as elders," Zheng Shu explained.

"Doesn't that mean they are very powerful?" Leo felt a little scared when he thought about it. He actually passed by such scary people.

"Is it amazing? I think it is." Zheng Shu scratched his hair, a little unsure.

His knowledge of the elder-level blood realm followers was limited to the laboratory. Because of their extremely strong regenerative abilities, they could quickly regenerate even if all the cells in their body collapsed completely, so they were very good experimental subjects.
