First, higher-level vampires have a bloodline suppression over lower-level vampires, and the strength of lower-level vampires will be greatly reduced when facing higher-level vampires.

Secondly, high-ranking vampires generally hide themselves well. High-ranking vampires can sense low-ranking vampires, but low-ranking vampires cannot sense high-ranking vampires.

Beck searched for a long time and only managed to devour vampires with higher bloodline levels than himself twice.

The first time was with his great-grandfather, an old-fashioned vampire who was powerful and could quickly recover himself by consuming blood, but was completely countered by Beck's blood-controlling alchemy.

The Blood Grail was obtained from my great-grandfather.

This Blood Grail is quite interesting. It's considered one of the sacred artifacts passed down through generations of vampires, and it's said to be a creation of the vampire progenitor.

The Blood Grail has a unique method of inheritance, allowing it to be integrated into the bloodline of vampires and randomly selected as a potential master.

When this master is killed by another vampire, another vampire can become its master.

Only vampires can use this cup; when not in use, it can be integrated into their blood.

If an outsider obtains this cup, it will quickly dissolve into blood and disappear, then randomly find a new vampire to become its owner.

"No wonder I couldn't find that cup; it turns out it's become part of my blood."

Huang Yu pondered. This method of inheritance was truly peculiar. It was estimated that only special human beings like the vampires, who were created through human refinement, could use this method to pass on their knowledge.

"In that case, I will have to find a new way to save the life of Patriarch Wei."

Huang Yu wasn't worried. Even without the Blood Holy Grail to refine the Blood of Vitality, he had a way to sustain the life of the Wei family head and extend it for another month.

A month is enough.

Beck's second absorption was of a vampire professor at Victor College.

The professor thought he could control Baker and make him work for him.

Unexpectedly, Beck later joined the Free Alchemy Association.

With Grinheim's help, the vampire professor was also devoured by Beck, thus achieving an upgrade in his bloodline level.

Seeing this, Huang Yu had another question:

"Since vampires hunt each other, why would higher-ranking vampires create lower-ranking vampires?"

"It couldn't be for love..."

He continued searching through his memories and soon found the answer.

It turns out that vampires can draw power from their own bloodline descendants!

As long as the first generation's descendants grow stronger, the source of their bloodline can plunder 10% of their power.

The second generation can receive a 1% commission.

The third generation can earn a commission of 0.1%.

……

It goes on from generation to generation, without end.

Even if they ultimately cannot gain power from the new generation, this pyramid-shaped energy flow structure can still allow the source of the bloodline to obtain excess benefits.

Huang Yu couldn't help but sigh:

"Damn, the vampires are really a perverted race. They risk their lives to reproduce, but every offspring will try their best to kill them in order to achieve the evolution of their bloodline, or simply because they don't want to be exploited."

"Every new generation of vampires, in order to become stronger, either devours its own kind who are stronger than itself, or even its own relatives, or develops more offspring."

"This kind of thing is even worse than pyramid schemes..."

Then, Huang Yu's expression turned serious, and he suddenly thought of a very serious question.

"Is that powerful alchemist, the originator of the vampires, dead?"

"If he hadn't died, how powerful would he have become after so many generations of vampires..."

"No wonder, in Western Europe, vampires are universally hated, and there are even professional witch hunters who hunt them down."

"If left unchecked, vampires will surely become a cancer on the entire human civilization, a parasite that lives deep within the bloodline!"

Shaking his head, Huang Yu put aside this terrifying conjecture.

Judging from the current situation, the vampires have not made any significant impact; they are merely rats hiding in the shadows.

Whether that so-called progenitor of the vampires is dead or alive, he can't cause any trouble.

It's fine if they stay hidden, but if they dare to show their faces, they'll probably be hunted down by the entire Western supernatural community.

Those mad alchemists don't care if you're some ancient ghost who's lived for thousands of years.

In the eyes of top alchemists, things in the world are divided into only two categories: those worth spending time studying and those that are not worth bothering with.

The progenitor of the vampires was undoubtedly the unique research subject.

Immortality has been the purest pursuit of alchemists since ancient times.

"Hey, we can't deal with Western affairs for now, let them handle it themselves."

A sudden light flashed in Huang Yu's eyes. He had already organized the part about alchemy in Baker's memory.

Among them are basic alchemy learned at Victor College, as well as blood-controlling alchemy researched by Beck himself.

As Huang Yu carefully perused his memories, he became immersed in them, realizing that this was a transcendent system completely different from the cultivation method.

Like alchemists, alchemists also use something within their bodies, or what they call life energy.

However, the two are fundamentally different in their usage.

Alchemists improve their physical condition or gain various special abilities by circulating energy through their meridians.

Alchemists, on the other hand, choose to combine it with special transmutation circles to transform one substance into a new one.

In Huang Yu's view, this alchemy array is actually a pattern or design with various special effects, representing a chemical equation for the transformation of one substance into another.

Based on whether or not living materials are involved, alchemy can be broadly divided into material transmutation and human transmutation.

For example, the most common form of transmutation can be used to transform base metals into precious metals or to create specific alloys.

In the original timeline, Nathan Wesley followed this path. His revolver was engraved with various transmutation circles, representing effects such as "gold," "absorption," and "dissolution."

When he injects it into the firearm, the transmutation array on the gun body instantly refines the bullet materials, transforming them into bullets with various special effects.

A bullet that can automatically track the opponent, a bullet that can change direction, a bullet that can transform into a powerful shockwave...

The power of the various bullets is no less than that of the revolver magic weapon that Huang Yu obtained before.

Going a step further, that involves human transmutation, which involves the transformation of inanimate objects into flesh and blood.

This is a rather taboo area in alchemy, but in this chaotic world, not many people care about it.

For example, Beck's blood alchemy falls under the category of human transmutation.

They can transform their own blood, or the blood of their enemies, into blood with special effects that they can control.

Sharp blood blades, a tough blood shield, blood bats that can automatically attack enemies, and the ability to make enemies bleed continuously, requiring only a small amount of blood to rebuild itself...

These are all special effects of the Blood Control Alchemy technique.

A hint of admiration flashed in Huang Yu's eyes:

“This Baker is indeed a genius. Blood control alchemy should also belong to the category of high-level alchemy in the field of alchemy.”

"Unfortunately, the weakness of hemolysis was not addressed."

"If this flaw can be resolved, Baker won't be so easy for me to kill. At least given the strangeness of his methods, he can still escape."

However, Huang Yu speculated that this defect was not so easy to solve and might involve the nature of the blood.

Otherwise, given Baker's abilities, he would have already found a way to solve it.

He probably never imagined that Huang Yu would study his abilities two years in advance and look for various ways to target him.

After Huang Yu finished absorbing the basic alchemy techniques, several new pieces of information appeared on his consciousness panel.

"Tsk tsk, triggering the alchemist's job change and advancement in one go, not bad."

"The Eye of Truth, gene editing, sounds pretty good."

Excitement shone in Huang Yu's eyes. Having already switched to so many professions, he had a good grasp of the characteristics of each profession panel.

These most fundamental extraordinary professions generally require exceptional talent, which is deeply intertwined with career development.

For example, the [Refining Essence] skill of the alchemist class has benefited Huang Yu to this day, giving him an unparalleled and enormous amount of power.
