Marvel's Superman Chapter 246

'I have to tell the elders!'
Gitano, who was frantic, hit the hard ground.
Fortunately, the club floor wasn't that high, and he didn't fall to his death.
Otherwise, if a dignified vampire jumped to his death, it would be too ridiculous.
'Run!'
This was the only thought in Gitano's head.
He didn't dare to look back and rushed forward desperately.
He was afraid that the terrible Superman would catch up and blow his head off.
"S.H.I.E.L.D. noticed the Blood Council and our secret plan."
Gitano's obedience to the Blood Council Elders temporarily overshadowed his fear of Superman.
He knew very well that if those great plans to revitalize the Blood Clan were exposed or announced, the Master of the New York Sanctum would definitely launch a new round of cleansing activities for vampires in the whole North American continent.
When the nest was overturned, no egg would be left intact!
Although Gitano had never heard this Eastern saying, he also knew a similar truth.
Therefore, he couldn't betray his clan and spill all the secrets.
"Get out!"
Like a player in Grand Theft Auto, Gitano rushed to the street staggeringly, pushing away an unlucky bastard who had just gotten out of his car, kicking him in the chest.
The original elegant aristocratic temperament and pale handsome face turned into a ferocious look because of the intense pain from his arm.
And bloody clothes, as if being splashed with a bucket of red paint, looked horrifying, making people avoid him.
'The message must be sent. '
Gitano got into the car. He didn't have the keys, so he had to hot wire it.
These days, hotwiring a car was still a simple and basic skill.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The white Ford Thunderbird uttered a low roar and left under people's stunned eyes.
"That's... my car! Asshole!"
The unlucky bastard shouted.
The others watched for a while before continuing their night activities.
"Director, should we follow?"
Nick Fury, who walked out of the club, still remembered the vampire who ran away.
Those high-ranking people, who committed crimes, had been punished as they should.
But the Blood Council member behind them managed to escape, and it looked like they would soon hide in the darkness.
"I deliberately let Gitano go. The first thing the blood-sucking bat would do under the panic is definitely to return to his nest."

Luke wore those [Clark Kent's Glasses] and pretended to be the sunny reporter again.
"Those guys are used to hiding in dark corners. If no one leads the way, looking for them one by one wouldn't be easy."
He stood in the street like nothing happened, looking up at the billboard of the wine club.
Tonight, a total of six business elites, three members of the White House cabinet, and two members of Congress died here, which was bound to cause an uproar in Washington, DC.
"Agent Fury, you are now a member of S.H.I.E.L.D. "
Luke lifted his glasses, smiled, and asked, "So, tell me, are you loyal to the country or to someone, such as the President?"
"I am loyal to the flag and the justice in my heart!"
Fury was stunned for a moment. He thought of those ugly-looking higher-ups in the hall and replied in a firm tone.
"That's good. Then I have other tasks for you."
Luke was very pleased to see the young and passionate Nick Fury.
In the future, the hard-boiled egg Director wouldn't be so sincere.
"Find someone named Howard Stark, and tell him everything that happened here."
Luke ordered.
The situation was very clear. The President secretly manipulated the Blood Council and began to absorb political power.
'The next step... perhaps using a fuse to restart the war?'
Kang the Conqueror liked to use this method to drive others with power and interests and fight endlessly in his boring game of ruling the world.
"Howard Stark ... Yes, Sir!"
Fury silently noted it down, then asked, "What about you, Director?"
"Me? I'm going to end this simple but difficult game."
Luke smiled faintly.
He was 80% sure that Kang was posing as the President.
Otherwise, how could the Blood Council penetrate so quickly into the elite circles in Washington, DC?
" I'd like to know how that guy managed to fool the vampires."
Luke's mouth rose. His tall figure rose from the ground and rushed up into the night sky.
This image of him, if he put on a Superman shirt, could really make a cameo appearance as a small reporter from Metropolis.
...
...
"I have urgent news for the elders of the council!"
Gitano, who lost his right arm, went all the way to a villa in the suburbs.
Generally speaking, vampires didn't like living in the city center.

For them, the environment was too noisy.
"It's Gitano ... he looks like a mess."
The white Ford Thunderbird rushed through the open gates and stopped at the courtyard.
The sharp brakes slid the tires on the ground, and the ear-splitting sound echoed.
"It looks like he's freaking out. Such a pathetic Gitano!"
There were endless voices of discussion. The Blood Council highly valued Gitano because he had connections with White House dignitaries.
The elders praised him many times and thought that he was a descendant worthy of support.
Maybe after a few decades, he could become an elder.
The rapid rise to the top would inevitably lead to jealousy and discontent from many people.
There were a few seats in the council. If someone took one, someone else would lose an opportunity.
"I need to see the elders!"
Gitano pushed open the car door, ignoring the strange looks from others, and broke into the hall where a banquet was being held.
"Which elder?"
Asked the vampire at the door.
"All the elders!"
Gitano spoke angrily, "I will hold a Blood Council meeting. Call all the elders in Washington!"
"That's against the rules. Gitano, you have no right ..."
"Shut up! Do as I say!"
Gitano slammed the vampire against the wall, glared at him with fierce eyes, and spoke word by word, "I need the elders to know that their plan is exposed. They should abort it immediately!"
Before long, the four elders in charge of this area of Washington, D.C., appeared together in the villa.
"Gitano, what can't be said on the phone?"
An elder with blond hair led them. He looked as if he was a 30-year-old middle-aged man.
"This is for the sake of prudence."
Gitano's right arm had been treated and bandaged.
"As far as I know, the East Coast telecommunications carrier business and mobile phone sales are almost entirely monopolized by Skynet. The man behind it is likely to be Luke Cavill, Lieutenant General Superman."
"If we talk over the phone, it's likely to be bugged."
"Elder, I need to tell you that S.H.I.E.L.D. has probably noticed the movement of the Blood Council."
"The White House's Chief of Staff, John Stillman, became the breaching point."
"That terrible Superman broke into Stillman's wine club 40 minutes ago and killed people."
"..."
The four elders who came to the conference room frowned.
Superman had been in the limelight for a long time, and it was said that he had turned the vampire covens in Paris upside down.
Even the patriarch behind those bastards, Alexander Corvinus, failed to stop it.
"Is he in league with vampires?"
A female elder with her charm still intact cursed angrily.
After the vampires in Europe, he wanted to take action against the North American continent, without even resting?
"Maybe we've been making a lot of noise and attracted S.H.I.E.L.D's attention? "
Another elder said in a deep voice.
"The man in the White House has long warned us that overt actions could put S.H.I.E.L.D. on alert."
Gitano listened silently; he wasn't qualified to speak.
As Lieutenant General Superman guessed, the changes from the Blood Council had started not too long ago.
The elders, who had always been conservative, changed their timid style of doing things and infiltrated Congress and the White House on a large scale.
It seemed that he wasn't worried at all, which attracted disgust and warning from the New York Sanctum.
"Lord Dracula has been gone for a long time, and the Blood Race needs a true 'La Magra'!"
The blond elder's eyes flickered, and the reason why he agreed to cooperate with the man in the White House was that the other person held the original essence of La Magra in his hand.
If they could get it and then hold a ceremony, it would be possible for an elder vampire to become an ancestor, equivalent to Lord Dracula.
Becoming a patriarch!
This was a temptation that no vampire could resist!
"Then what should we do now?"
The elder woman asked.
"Can you negotiate with him? Superman is in a high position and should understand the rules of the political game."
"If we surrender part of our interests, such as letting him join a cooperative alliance, we may be able to survive this crisis."
The blond elder hesitated. It sounded good, but who knew if the other party would agree.
That was Superman!
How could a war hero of justice, a selfless beacon of light on the earth, negotiate a deal with a vampire?

This Strange New Life
Seems like I got a new chance. Better not fuck it up then, since I really want to see what it feels to have a family. Power is pretty lame alone. Best used to build things and protect people. Did a lot of building 'till now, lots of research stuff and all. Now, let's protect the people that I love and that loves me back. An enjoyable life with my loved ones. Whatever the cost. Mufufu~~ What can I do, my siblings are so cute~~ maybe I'll try having children at some point~? --- PLEASE READ THE DESCRIPTION ^p^ ---- This is an extremely slow reincarnation story, with heavy usage of dialogues and diminutive descriptions. Chapter are posted whenever I feel like it, because I won't burn myself down like I did before. Chapters will often be around 2k words. The first arc, Life in Valince, will be at least 50 chapters deep, and the main character won't get to her 1 year anniversary over the span of this arc. As I said, it's a slow, character interaction, dialogue-heavy story. Lots of feeling, slice-of-life etc, with some dramatic events that shape the rest of the story ^^ AND PLEASE, STOP PESTERING ME ABOUT JAPANESE. this story contain a very limited amount of japanese words, used in context for a reason and that are part of the mystery of the worldAnd the bad guys use german (not because nazi buit because german is badass)And there’s also french. Please be open-minded. I’m not a delusional weeb and this kind of thing, and it would be very appreciated if people could be more polite.If you don't like it, I don't force you to read it, but a lot of people seems to like this novel nonetheless, so maybe you should give it a shot. ---- Lux's here! Yeah I know I should work on ToL and ToF but I had another idea, then another one. So here it is. Story talk about a war vet that reincarnate and can finally know what it is to have a family. I like engineering, creating things and all, so I'll try putting production scene in this. Like all my stories, it's about love, be it with family, friends or lovers. I like my coffee with so much love sugar that half the planet would get diabetes. You're warned. Also, the MC is quite OP, but I keep a progression curb and she still has things to learn, which she will eagerly do. After all, curiosity is one of her main drives, with a thirst for love and utter hate of loss, be it losing a battle or losing someone she loves. Ha, nearly forgot. CONTENT WARNINGS AREN'T FOR SHOW. Sex, of course. I'll try to explore sexuality as a male, a female, and some other PoV that can't be categorised like that, not exactly. Also, beware the yuri/yaoi. I don't limit myself to straight couples. Gore. A lot. Blood everywhere, guts spilling and all. I don't do censure. The Mc cut a wolf in half? you get the details of what is inside it. Traumatising content. I dunno. No NTR, no heartbreaking drama. However, some of you may dislike the way I handle bodies and flesh. Got some feedback about body horror on my previous works, but everyone as a different border separating transhumanism and body horror. Mine is pretty high. How high? Go read The Other Labyrthin to have an example. To put it in simple term, I've no problem at all to describe alien bodies, change in human bodies, interactions between differents strange species etc. Expect a lot of tentacle, bio-incubator, spawning pool à la zerg. Profanity. Well, I think you fucking got it in the very first sentence of this synopsis, ain't right? ---- THIS IS A WIP (work in progress)! Earlier chapters may get retconned or completely changed, structure of the story isn't set in stone, all the usual stuff. ANY HELP IS WELCOMED. Want to throw me your idea? Shoot! Spotted an error in the text? Comment! Seen a plothole bigger than the impact zone of a nuke? I'll gladly hear you out and try to fix the problem (somehow ;-;) --- Cover: John Martin - The Plains of Heaven (c. 1851) ---- Official Editor: TheZouave (starting from ch25 onward) ---- List of thanks: Necrotyr (English) Asviloka (English) Damokles (Review) David Talon (Review) JHA (English) Helbom (English) Slee202 (Common Coherence) NEEDS_MORE_DAKA (First First) Srayan (English) Koooomakimi (Dialogue Flow) Emagstar (English) Apocryphal (Review) ToasterForker (Review) Ellen Taylor (Review) Zak (English) PrimalShadow (English) Elliot Flanders (HUGE THANKS for the re-write of the poem "Tale of Ashen Night" Go check their work, it's good ^^) Lance Wheeler (Huge thanks for the English edit on each chapter ^^) (If you think you should be here because you helped me, feel free to ask, pointing the reason, like the comment you gave that could have helped me ^^)
8 198A Spirit Vein's Guide to Immortality
TL;DR Synopsis: Man dies from falling banana, gets interrogated but answers vaguely, suffers consequences Actual synopsis: Spirit veins. Many consider them to be the pillar on which the world of cultivation is built. These things served as the foundation for the first few realms that would allow humanity to achieve its everlasting dream of immortality. However, in the present age, these pockets of condensed energy only exist to be under the foundations of massive organizations, fostering a new generation of fighters while passively radiating the energy they contain. Nevertheless, spirit veins are still an important element in the world of cultivation, albeit much less so. With that in mind, have you ever considered what it would be like for someone to turn into a spirit vein? No? Well, Arthur never thought about it either. Going through the usual reincarnation schtick (if one could consider it usual), Arthur was eventually brought into a place where a god asked him where he would like to be reborn. Unsurprisingly, Arthur told the god his ideal rebirth. However, soon enough, he would come to realize that he should have been more specific with it. Now being reborn as the smallest spirit vein, or if you could even consider him a spirit vein, Arthur wondered what he could do other than wait for time to consume him…and that’s where the system came in. With it, he would experience multiple stories of hardships, adventure, romance, and action…all underground. Unless…? Do keep in mind that English is not my first language, so I would like to apologize in advance if there are any grammatical errors, typos, miscalculations and so on. In fact, I'd highly appreciate it if you tell me those mistakes. Also, this story focuses quite a lot on the gradual progression of the MC at the beginning, but in the long run, upgrading sprees would probably be more common. Thanks for reading this small note!
