Chapter 473: The Six Districts of the City of Eternal Night.

Jeffrey, the boss of the First Form Blood Fruit Company.

He is also one of Menrojina's subordinates.

He is not a native-born Train Conductor, but rather a native who transformed by spending Train Coins.

He didn't want to take risks.

The only reason he became a Train Conductor was to use the train system, enabling cross-world communication.

"Are you a vampire?"

"Yes... Please don't mind. At this time, to stay in the City of Eternal Night, one must transform their race. I spent quite a bit of money to become a low-level vampire without my appearance changing too drastically..."

Because of the recent expulsion and hunting of humans, the only ones who could still remain in the City of Eternal Night were monsters.

Ye Qiyan didn't really mind this point.

Jeffrey took out a box from that storage cabinet.

"The item for hiding your race, Lady Menro has also prepared it for you."

"Four sets in total, please check them, sir."

[Vampire × ?]

[When equipped, can disguise your own race as [Vampire] and obtain the identity of Vampire Viscount.]

Having this thing saved Ye Qiyan a lot of trouble.

After all, he was currently broke as hell.

"Um, that, Lord Altos, there's one more thing..."

"What is it?"

"Could you, um, tone down that blinding light... just a little, just a bit."

"Light?"

Ye Qiyan looked himself over.

"What light?"

"Uh... it's, it's..."

"Oh, I see."

That was the power of Judgment.

The power of [Judgment] specifically used to restrain these [Evil Races].

Ye Qiyan waved his hand, and the aura of Judgment swirling around him dissipated directly.

This was the slight aura he had picked up after obtaining the [Judge] Blasphemy Card.

If this aura were to fully land on a low-level vampire like Jeffrey, it would probably take his life.

"No need to call me 'lord' or anything. Altos, just call me by this name."

After equipping the disguise item, Ye Qiyan looked at himself in the mirror. He had gained a pair of fangs, his ears had become pointed, his skin had turned pale, looking exactly like a melancholic, handsome vampire.

"Handsome?"

"Master, so handsome."

Lisette took out a camera and pressed the shutter.

"You try it too."

When the same item was equipped on Lisette, after the vampire characteristics appeared, her appearance gained an extra layer of exotic beauty compared to before.

After the disguise, Ye Qiyan also used Illusory Attire to make his outfit more in line with a vampire's style.

Lisette's maid outfit didn't need changing, however. A vampire paired with a maid was a perfect combination to begin with.

From Jeffrey's mouth, Ye Qiyan learned about the current situation in the City of Eternal Night.

This city, true to its name, was forever in darkness.

The city was internally divided into six districts.

First, the Guild Headquarters. Ignoring some small guilds.

Currently, within the City of Eternal Night, there are a total of four large guilds, each possessing several top-tier Train Conductors.

Blood Moon, Hell's Gate, Wally, Dark Night.

Second, the Blood Bag Processing Station. Inside, there are human "blood bags" continuously captured from various Station Worlds.

Their blood is extracted to manufacture food for the vampires and to offer sacrifices to the Blood God of the City of Eternal Night.

They even use the lives of these humans to make weapons.

For example... that blueprint Ye Qiyan obtained earlier, named the Human Grinder.

Third, the Entertainment District. Most of those living here are ordinary people forced to transform into other races, barely surviving by providing entertainment for those monsters.

Fourth, the Commercial Island. This First Form Blood Fruit Company is located in this district, specifically manufacturing various goods for the monsters of the City of Eternal Night.

As for Blood Fruit, it's similar to a human beverage.

Made by mixing blood with some other ingredients, it circulates widely among the vampires of the City of Eternal Night.

Fifth, the Noble Street.

As the name suggests.

The area where the nobles among the monsters live. Jeffrey, as the boss of the blood fruit company, has been there once.

The vampire nobles who use extravagance, madness, and extremity as their art made him lose his appetite for several days back then.

Sixth.

The Blood God Pavilion.

All vampires in the City of Eternal Night must worship the Blood God.

And just two days later is the Blood Art Festival, created specifically for this Blood God. On that day, all vampires must offer a drop of their own blood to the Blood God.

Also on that day, one can witness the Apostles belonging to the Blood God descend.

"Two days later, huh. No wonder."

"Mr. Altos, what do you plan to do next? If there's any way I can help, please speak up. If I help you, I can repay the karma I owe that lady... I'm... almost done repaying."

Almost...

Is it really almost?

Would Menrojina abandon this company? Would she let go of a subordinate who could steadily provide her with information?

It's not that Ye Qiyan was thinking of Menrojina in a bad light.

But if it were him.

He would choose to continue finding ways to utilize Jeffrey.

"I'll find you if there's something."

"Alright. Then, sir... do you have any plans?"

"No plans."

"Uh..."

Ye Qiyan smiled.

"It's my first time here too. Let's wander around first. I'm quite curious about a city of monsters. By the way, do you have any money? I'll pay you back later."

When Ye Qiyan left this First Form Blood Fruit Company with the three thousand Eternal Night coins he got from Jeffrey.

On the street, the flow of people, no, the flow of monsters, was endless.

Vampires, werewolves, insect-men, gargoyles, liches...

All sorts of evil races were everywhere in this city.

There seemed to be no rules here, or perhaps these monsters were simply incapable of following order.

With just a little displeasure, they would start fighting fiercely.

Fighting to the death, devouring everything clean.

"Master, where... shall we go?"

Lisette asked softly by Ye Qiyan's ear.

All sorts of evil races were everywhere in this city.

"Speaking of which, I wonder who else will come to the City of Eternal Night. For god-slaying, it wouldn't be Sister Shaya coming, would it?"

They hailed an octopus monster taxi.

With an octopus monster lying in the car's engine compartment extending its tentacles to act as the power source.

Amidst the bumpy journey, they finally arrived at the city's Entertainment District.

Glittering lights and vibrant nightlife? Not at all.

All that existed was blood and destruction.

Human cries, fear, sorrow... converged in the air.

Blood, converging into streams.

Corpses, piled into mountains.

The so-called entertainment here...

Was killing.

Was torture.

Was the frenzied venting of desires.

"...Truly... nauseating."
