Li Hai still remembered that in the cultivation novels he read in his previous life, the imperial court System generally matched official positions with combat power, and once an official position was lost, one would immediately fall from the clouds to the mortal world.
Compared to that, this Bloody Federation was not much different.
The higher the power one possessed, or the vast financial resources that could be converted into power, the higher the Bloodline Rank one could obtain, or rather, a higher Rank of Bloodline Qi terms.
At the same time, once the Bloodline Rank was high, under the action of a mysterious power called 'Power of the United States' as mentioned by Marina, one could manifest and possess various special abilities corresponding to that Rank.
For example, stronger power, defense, self-healing, agility, longevity, etc., and even more mysterious abilities, such as transforming into a group of bats, controlling shadows, body mistification, or even manipulating dead bodies in graveyards, and so on.
According to Marina, the various Bloodline Ranks of the Blood Race, from lowest to highest, are as follows:
Blood Servant—usually corresponding to vagrants, addicts, bankrupt individuals, etc.;
Citizen—usually corresponding to various mid-to-low-level workers, whether physical or mental labor;
Noble—corresponding to various Advanced workers, artists, and celebrities in society, such as the General Manager of a large company, a famous singer or star, a famous painter or designer, or a popular athlete;
Elder—corresponding to many low-to-mid-tier old money figures with billions in traditional industries within the Federation, or first-generation rich individuals who suddenly became wealthy through various emerging industries, or council members with a certain degree of say, or influential members of a political Family, or relatives of higher-level figures, such as Marina:
Lord—corresponding to the Lords of the fifty Blood Race territories in the Bloody Federation, the heads of political Families, the highest leaders of many important departments in the United States, and the helmsmen of various top financial groups, etc.;
Finally, the highest Bloodline Rank—Blood Race Emperor, which corresponds to the current President of the United States, the former President, the Speaker of the Grand Council, the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, and the Commander-in-Chief of the Federal Military, etc.
As for the Bloodline Rank order of the Werewolves, Marina only knew that there were Ranks such as Slave, Hunter, Warrior, Priest, Chief, and Wolf King, and she did not know much more in-depth information.
Because many years ago, the Black Wolf Pack, formed when the Werewolf Race was at its peak, was completely annihilated by the Blood Race forces.
This led to many high-Bloodline Rank members of the Werewolf Race dying or fleeing, either escaping to overseas islands or barely surviving by degenerating into gangs.
Therefore, the Bloodline Rank System of the current Werewolf Race has also degenerated to be extremely vague and cannot be clearly organized.
These things are not important; what is truly important is that Li Hai, based on this intelligence, roughly deduced who the person corresponding to the Grandmaster Rank Bloodline Rank in this world should be.
Since Marina, this Blood Race Elder, corresponds to Steel Grade, and her Bloodline Qi term is Rank 2, Li Hai reasonably inferred that a Blood Race Lord corresponds to Thousand Army Grade, with a Bloodline Qi term of Rank 3, and a Blood Race Emperor corresponds to the Grandmaster Rank, who should possess a Rank 4 Bloodline Qi term.
Therefore, Marina's father—Ao Hei Niu (satirical name), the former President of the United States who is in the Blood Race Imperial Rank—is very likely a Grandmaster Rank individual in the System's judgment mechanism, capable of providing Li Hai with a Strongest Fragment.
“So, little girl—”
Li Hai looked at the dying Marina and asked coldly, “Where exactly is your dear Daddy right now?”
“Pfft!”
Marina painfully spat out a large mouthful of blood, then weakly said, “He’s in, he’s in the capital of the United States, at XX Street XX Number in Washington.”
“Very good.”
After hearing the address clearly, Li Hai nodded and then raised his foot, fiercely stomping on her head, blowing it apart.
Immediately, his figure flashed, and he swiftly disappeared from the building.
Much later, a team of fully armed Blood Race soldiers surrounded the entire building, then rushed to the rooftop, finally discovering Marina’s tragic remains.
Regardless of Ao Hei Niu (satirical name)’s reaction, after leaving the building, Li Hai plummeted towards Washington, over two hundred kilometers away, at supersonic speed.
His speed and reckless attitude naturally caused severe consequences in XX City in a short amount of time.
Who knows how many cars and how many Blood Race Werewolves were tragically turned into large expanses of steaming blood mist and scattered remains and scrap metal on the ground due to his low-altitude dive.
Consequently, various media outlets immediately began continuous reports and speculations surrounding Li Hai himself, wondering whether he was a devil or an alien.
However, Li Hai naturally did not care about these things, because killing these Blood Race and Werewolves was merely a casual act; the one he truly wanted to eliminate was Ao Hei Niu (satirical name).
At the same time, during this period, it was not as if no army had tried to intercept Li Hai’s actions,
But facing a monster that could reach half a kilometer per second when flying at full speed, conventional weapons were completely ineffective.
Furthermore, Li Hai showed no inclination to communicate, simply killing people relentlessly and without regard.
So, the United States military, completely helpless in the end, issued an order.
After Li Hai flew out of New York and entered the suburban area, they were to conduct continuous, carpet-bombing, large-scale bombardments on the sections of the road he was about to pass through.
Their tactics were indeed correct.
Since it was not his true body, but merely a Demon Ape Clone,
Li Hai, who had no sense of danger whatsoever, did not make a single turn during his entire flight.
He flew straight at full speed towards Washington the entire time.
Therefore, this allowed the United States military to clearly determine his precise route.
Thus, as soon as he left XX City and flew into the suburban wilderness, after only a few tens of kilometers, overwhelming flames and explosions covered all of Li Hai’s vision, front, back, left, and right.
Boom boom boom boom boom! No matter which direction he flew at supersonic speed, or how far, there were continuous explosions, as if the United States' explosives were free of charge.
It is unknown how many kickbacks various Mr. Smiths in the military received this time.
In any case, under the cluster bombing of various missiles, bombs, and fuel-air bombs, even with his various magical techniques, Li Hai was ultimately blasted into dust, leaving not even a piece of flesh the size of a fingernail.
However, as the generals of the United States military celebrated, and various Blood Race Elders, Lord Rank figures, the current President Old Biden, and Ao Hei Niu (satirical name) all breathed a huge sigh of relief and then rejoiced,
The relevant personnel subsequently dispatched to inspect and search for traces of Li Hai immediately discovered a towering stone gate standing abruptly in the charred, unrecognizable wasteland that had been bombed.
And when these search personnel approached the stone gate, a pitch-black spherical object suddenly appeared within its frame.
