A crimson snake-shaped familiar appeared beside him, then opened its large mouth and spewed flames at the materials inside the cargo container, quickly melting them.
Such scenes were common throughout the construction site. Some familiars helped process materials, while others were tasked with dangerous work, and still others were used directly as labor tools.
The construction of the artificial island, which originally should have required many large and even heavy machines, saw its construction speed increase dramatically after the vampires joined. The vampires' familiars helped the construction site save many large machines, making construction simpler and easier.
In just a few days, the base of the new artificial island was almost completely laid. This was something absolutely unimaginable before.
Of course, some people were very dissatisfied with this situation, such as Peirash Yala Douer, the Speaker of the Empire Council of the War King Territory. After arriving at Itogami Island, he was also assigned a task, but his task was to supervise these lower-level vampires. After all, he was a Speaker, so he couldn't really be sent to the construction site to move bricks.
It was said from the beginning that this was the War King's order. He didn't believe it, so he confirmed it with Zhanna. After learning from Zhanna that this was indeed the War King's order, although he was puzzled, he still chose to obey.
But after several consecutive days, he really couldn't stand it anymore.
"No matter what you say, I must see His Majesty today. Don't think that Zhanna can order me around. I want to see His Majesty!"
Peirash rushed into the port's office, roaring at Hina Gu Yume, who was in charge of supervising on behalf of the Ideal Country.
"Mr. Peirash, if you want to see your Majesty, it's useless to talk to me, because I am not your Majesty."
"But you have been stopping me, not letting me see His Majesty!"
"No, we are not stopping you. It is Miss Zhanna who is stopping you."
"She is in league with you!"
The Speaker glared, accusing Hina Gu Yume.
However, Hina Gu Yume was not anxious. She pushed up her glasses, her face indifferent.
"Are you sure that the War King's follower is in league with our Lion King Agency? You must think carefully about what will happen if this sentence reaches your Majesty's ears. I think you should be clearer than I am."
"That's right, what if I say it now? I want to see His Majesty. If you still want to stop me, I don't mind monitoring what the demon destroyers of the Lion King Agency are capable of!"
"I said, Your Excellency Peirash, I am not stopping you. It is Miss Zhanna who is stopping you. If you think there is no problem with rushing to the War King, then please go ahead."
Hina Gu Yume personally watched the War King issue the order in front of Wang Xiaoming, asking these vampires to work as helpers. Now that this Empire Council Speaker thinks the War King's order is not good, then let him go and see the War King himself. Whatever happens at that time has nothing to do with her.
"Humph!"
This time, without any obstruction, Peirash turned and left the office, then headed directly towards Itogami Island. He did not notify Zhanna in advance, but rushed over on his own.
Hina Gu Yume watched him leave all the way, then notified Nangong Nayue. The following matters were the responsibility of Nangong Nayue, the security supervisor. It was not good for her to get involved, otherwise she would definitely want to see what the Speaker looked like when he was frustrated.
However, what she didn't know was that inside Itogami Island, Nangong Nayue, who heard the news from Hina Gu Yume, frowned.
"Another troublemaker is coming."
"What's wrong, Miss Nangong? Is something wrong?"
Also in the same office was Laetitia. As Wang Xiaoming's head maid, she naturally had to help deal with matters around Wang Xiaoming. Wang Xiaoming basically issued an order regarding national governance, and then became a hands-off shopkeeper. Laetitia, as an all-around head maid, naturally had to do things for her master Wang Xiaoming.
After all, she was once a cadre in Arcadia, and had been dealing with matters within the community.
"In the past few days, there has been a guy among the vampires in the northern new district who has been clamoring that he was deceived and wants to cause trouble. Just now, the guy from the Lion King Agency told me that that guy has left the northern district and come to the main island."
"If it's just a vampire, it shouldn't be a problem, right?"
"If it's just that guy, of course there's no problem. The problem is that since the night before yesterday, several vampires who had been living here on the main island have died."
Nangong Nayue handed a document in her hand to Laetitia.
"The vampire who is causing trouble in the northern district is Peirash Yala Douer, the Speaker of the Empire Council of the War King Territory. He is a very high-ranking person and a sensitive figure in himself. It's okay for him to stay in the northern district, but now he suddenly wants to come to the main island, and several vampires on the main island just happened to be killed. If he makes an issue out of this, there will definitely be a lot of trouble."
Laetitia looked at the document handed over by Nangong Nayue, and after a brief look, she understood the general situation.
Someone in the War King Territory was dissatisfied with the War King's order and suspected that the War King had been deceived, so they wanted to come and see the War King. And several vampires on the main island just happened to die strangely. From the looks of it, someone was deliberately hunting vampires. This matter could easily cause misunderstandings.
But...
"Miss Nangong, I don't think you need to worry."
Laetitia put the document back.
"Because, perhaps someone is indeed hunting vampires, but even if this Speaker finds out, it doesn't matter, because the First Progenitor is absolutely on our side."
"....."
After being said so by Laetitia, Nangong Nayue thought of the Forgotten War King she had been seeing every day these days. In front of Wang Xiaoming, he was like he had returned home, speaking so nicely and being so polite. He was simply gentle, not at all like the strongest Progenitor among the three Progenitors. He was very obedient to Wang Xiaoming, constantly refreshing Nangong Nayue's worldview.
She couldn't help but wonder.
"After you said that, I only want to know now, what is the relationship between the three Progenitors, even the Fourth Progenitor, and Wang Xiaoming? Why can they do this for Wang Xiaoming!"
"Who knows about this kind of thing."
Laetitia just smiled, then turned and left Nayue's office.
"I'll go report to the master first. The Speaker's matter is not a problem. Hunting vampires is what we should pay attention to and deal with."
435. Research on resisting the sun
Wang Xiaoming's laboratory was not the small laboratory on the third floor of the villa, but the laboratory located on the upper level of the Keystone Gate. Since becoming the owner of Itogami Island, Wang Xiaoming and his family moved out of the villa area and lived directly in the Keystone Gate. This place is located in the very center of Itogami Island and is also the highest location. From here, you can overlook the entire Itogami Island, and if something happens, you can also start directly from the top platform of the Keystone Gate and quickly reach any place on Itogami Island.
There is also more space here to place more research equipment, but Wang Xiaoming's research equipment is not much. His research equipment is only used to study one thing, that is, to study the factors that allow vampires in this world to ignore the sun.
The First Progenitor and the others are also here.
I have to say that the [Fifth Heavenly King] skill is very BUG, but there are also many restrictions, that is, once you join the other party's organization, you must ensure that the other party is always within a certain range of yourself. Once you leave too far, it will be defaulted that the team mode is canceled, and the skill will directly become invalid.
Therefore, in order to ensure that the Fifth Heavenly King can always be activated during this period, Wang Xiaoming can only let the four people from the First Progenitor's side live next to his laboratory, and then he does research in the laboratory.
Before, there was Agulola's hair and saliva as samples. This time, with the First Progenitor, the samples are even richer. Wang Xiaoming directly extracted several tubes of blood from the War King as samples. He wanted to see what the differences were between the First Progenitor and the Fourth Progenitor. After all, in this world, the three Progenitors have different bloodline abilities. The First Progenitor's familiars can turn into mist to avoid damage, the Third Progenitor's familiars can turn familiars into weapons, Wang Xiaoming doesn't know what kind of abilities the Second Progenitor's familiars have, and the Fourth Progenitor Agulola seems to be more useless. She herself doesn't have any abilities, she is just an artificial element body.
However, her familiars possess a wide range of abilities. The mist-forming ability of the familiar [Silver Mist of Carapace] can directly turn the entire Itogami Island into mist to evade damage. The weapon ability is [Black Sword of Yasha]. Her twelve familiars have diverse abilities, and their combination can cope with many environments.
Previously, he had been busy with the construction of Itogami Island. After all, the construction of Itogami Island definitely required him, the new owner, to personally plan it. As an MC player, he was very enthusiastic about infrastructure construction. When planning the new island, he personally drew the designs, striving for beauty and perfection, which meant he didn't have time to think about research. Anyway, there was still plenty of time.
But now, the First Progenitor has arrived, and the construction plan for Itogami Island is almost complete. It's time for Wang Xiaoming to finish the remaining research.
By comparing samples from Aurora, the First Progenitor, and Lamia, Wang Xiaoming successfully identified the differences between vampires from the two worlds. Wang Xiaoming named it the anti-ultraviolet factor. After artificially replicating the anti-ultraviolet factor, Wang Xiaoming directly injected this factor into his own body to experiment and see if he could acquire this physique through this method. After all, he possesses the physique of Tom the Cat and isn't afraid of experiments.
After injecting the anti-ultraviolet factor, Wang Xiaoming directly removed his anti-ultraviolet bracelet and went to the top platform of the Keystone Gate to bask in the sunlight.
Then, he was ignited by the sun and turned into a human torch.
Covered in flames, Wang Xiaoming endured the pain and slowly walked down from the top platform of the Keystone Gate, reaching the shade, sitting on the ground, extinguishing the fire on his body, and then starting to think.
"This method doesn't work? Then how can I do it?"
"Master, what is this...?"
Laetitia, who had rushed over from Natsuki Minamiya's office, happened to see Wang Xiaoming sitting on the ground, and was somewhat surprised. What was going on with this roasted appearance?
"Oh, Laetitia, I was just doing the experiment I hadn't finished before."
"But Master, this appearance of yours..."
"Sunburned. The first experiment failed."
Wang Xiaoming waved the anti-ultraviolet bracelet in his hand at Laetitia, letting her understand what Wang Xiaoming was doing.
Laetitia walked to Wang Xiaoming's side, hugged Wang Xiaoming, and cradled his head in her chest.
"Master, you've worked hard."
Wang Xiaoming enjoyed Laetitia's warm and soft embrace. Hmm, it's much smaller than Lamia's. Among my wives, it's only bigger than Esther's, but considering Laetitia can transform....
"It's nothing, this is what I should do."
Wang Xiaoming slightly twisted his neck, finding the softest position, and then rested his cheek on it. Laetitia could feel Wang Xiaoming's small movements, but didn't say anything or dislike Wang Xiaoming's charred appearance, just smiled and hugged him tighter.
After enjoying Laetitia's embrace service for a while, Wang Xiaoming turned around and put his arms around Laetitia's small waist.
"By the way, Laetitia, aren't you helping Natsuki over there? Why did you come to me?"
"Something happened on Miss Minamiya's side, and I came to tell you, Master."
"Oh? What happened?"
"The vampires in the North District are coming to find the First Progenitor."
"Oh, that's not a problem. It's normal for them to want to see the Progenitor."
"Yes, I know that too. There's also one more thing: several vampires on Itogami Island have been hunted down. They're not the newcomers from the North District, but the demons who originally lived on Itogami Island."
"Hmm?"
Wang Xiaoming was a little puzzled. It's rare for vampires to be hunted down.
"Hunting vampires?"
"Yes, someone is hunting vampires. According to the information obtained from Miss Minamiya, those vampires were as if they had been drained, and their deaths were very tragic."
"Drained?"
Wang Xiaoming finally lifted his head from Laetitia's chest, looking at Laetitia with some surprise.
"Yes."
Laetitia nodded affirmatively.
"Shouldn't be, it's here already?"
"Master, could it be that there's something wrong with that hunter?"
"It's nothing."
Wang Xiaoming put his head back on Laetitia's chest. Laetitia rolled her eyes helplessly this time, but didn't push Wang Xiaoming's head away.
"There's nothing wrong with that hunter, but there's something wrong with the people around him."
"Master, do you need me to take care of it?"
"Hmm, it's okay, don't worry, they can't make any waves."
Wang Xiaoming let go of Laetitia and stood up.
"Now, I'm going to finish this research first!"
436. Personally Removing Laetitia's Pantyhose
Injecting the anti-ultraviolet factor into the body, but it didn't work, which Wang Xiaoming didn't understand. The only difference between the vampires in the Strike the Blood world and the vampires in the Hakoniwa world is here, but why?
Could it be the production of the anti-ultraviolet factor?
Although Wang Xiaoming replicated the artificial anti-ultraviolet factor and injected it into his body, the amount was limited, and it couldn't be naturally generated in his body. Maybe it could exist, but the amount wasn't enough, unless he continuously generated it or continuously injected it?
Wang Xiaoming thought of the conditions for transforming into a vampire in this world: giving his rib to the other party, allowing the other party to transform into his blood servant, which is the new vampire.
That weapons dealer became the Fourth Progenitor's blood servant through the rib of Subject No. 1 and gained a long life.
Therefore, we can start from the rib!
Taking out the rib that the weapons dealer personally presented from the space pocket, Wang Xiaoming began to study it. A rib can directly change a race, so the things inside this rib must be the key.
So, Wang Xiaoming began to study the rib. This rib looked complete, Wang Xiaoming could only drill a small hole and extract bone marrow from the rib for research.
The research results came out quickly. From this bone marrow, Wang Xiaoming determined that this bone marrow could produce blood, and at the same time, it would fill the blood with anti-ultraviolet factors. The content of anti-ultraviolet factors was very high, and it would continue to increase with blood production, which means it would be continuously manufactured, so the blood would continuously produce anti-ultraviolet factors.
So, this bone marrow is the focus of everything.
Then the next thing is simple!
Wang Xiaoming directly extracted all the bone marrow from the rib and injected it all into his bones at once. Without considering any antibodies or immunity, Wang Xiaoming easily accepted these bone marrows and made them a part of his body.
In this way, Wang Xiaoming's bone marrow will produce blood for himself, and at the same time, it will continuously produce anti-ultraviolet factors for himself, and then, with the assimilation ability of his body, easily turn the other bone marrow in his body into the same type of bone marrow.
Ten minutes after transplanting the bone marrow into his body, Wang Xiaoming ran to the top platform of the Keystone Gate again and basked in the sun again.
However, this time, Wang Xiaoming, who was basking in the sun, was not ignited by the sun, but only felt that the sun was a little dazzling and a little annoying, but he was not ignited. In this way, he was exactly the same as the Progenitor of this world.
Wang Xiaoming spread his hands, looked up and bathed in the sun, and then smiled happily.
Success, his special physique allowed him to successfully acquire the vampire physique of this world and ignore the sun.
Laetitia was always by his side, from Wang Xiaoming conducting research and injecting bone marrow into himself, she was always by his side. Now, watching Wang Xiaoming spread his arms and bathe in the sun, she also smiled happily.
Wang Xiaoming's success also meant that Laetitia and Lamia could also do it. In this way, Laetitia and Lamia, as well as Lamia, could always enjoy the sun without any burden. Their vampire race would no longer have to worry about the threat of the sun.
Wang Xiaoming put away his hands and looked at Laetitia next to him.
"Okay, Laetitia, call Lamia and Lamia over. Today, I can let you enjoy the sun forever!"
