Langde's answer was both expected and unexpected. Expected, because Lin Tian's first guess was Charlotte; unexpected, because Charlotte was actually known as a "madman" in the Blood Clan.

Another surprising fact for Lin Tian was that Charlotte was actually a lord-level vampire. A lord is a rank just below that of a prince, holding a prestigious status within the Blood Clan.

Of course, this comparison is about rank; in the Blood Clan, although the prince is the highest rank, it doesn't necessarily mean they are the most powerful vampire.

There are some hidden vampires who are quite powerful, but have no interest in clan affairs, so some of the Blood Clan might not even be aware of their existence. However, to become a lord or a prince, one's strength is inevitably substantial.

"Charlotte has an ability to change her appearance at will, which always keeps her opponents uneasy, especially her enemies. Such a vampire is extremely dangerous, so many people have given her the nickname, Demon King," Langde said.

"Demon King?" Lin Tian was stunned for a moment, then shook his head helplessly. Such a ruthless female vampire is even more of a demon than a demon king.

Lin Tian pondered for a moment and asked with some confusion, "I heard from Morman that Clark can also change his appearance. Does he have the same ability?"

Langde shook his head and denied, "Although Clark can also change his appearance, it's not the same as Charlotte. Clark just uses a high-level disguise technique, but Charlotte can truly become whoever she wants."

Ah, no wonder I couldn't tell, Lin Tian suddenly understood.

"Elder, given the urgency of the situation, let's start immediately," Lin Tian urged.

Knowing that the Jimi Chi Clan was the clan Charlotte belonged to, Lin Tian became even more motivated, eager to brew the potion quickly to spark a conflict between the two clans. This way, he could get in touch with the vampires of the Jimi Chi Clan and trace the situation back to uncover Charlotte.

"Mr. Lin, how about this: you handle the extraction of the herbs, and I will prepare the final potion. Right now, the more we brew, the better. But first, let's make a sample. Once we've confirmed through experimentation that it's safe, we can start mass production," Langde suggested.

Knowing Langde's cautiousness, Lin Tian agreed and, following the formula's requirements, meticulously extracted the essence of the herbs. Langde then mixed the liquid in a specific order.

Their collaboration was efficient, and in less than an hour, they successfully produced the first batch of potion, a bottle filled to the brim the size of a fist.

Langde rapped on the experimental table rhythmically. Just as Lin Tian was feeling curious, an elderly butler entered from outside, accompanied by a young vampire who appeared to be in his early twenties.

However, the young vampire seemed aware of his fate, his eyes brimming with fear, yet powerless to resist. Lin Tian shook his head silently, acknowledging Langde's cruelty, as he used low-ranking vampires for experiments without hesitation.

The young vampire lay on the operating table, where clasps automatically secured his limbs and torso. These restraints were specially reinforced metal clasps, which no ordinary vampire could break, unless the potion induced an explosive surge in strength.

With everything set, Langde took the newly brewed potion and poured a third of it into the young vampire's mouth. Immediately, black veins appeared on the young vampire's face, and his pupil was replaced entirely by the whites of his eyes.

A look of pain quickly appeared on the young vampire's face. With a "bang," unlike the explosion from yesterday, he tore apart the metal restraints.

The expected scene of pain and collapse didn't occur. Instead, after the young vampire released his power, his eyes returned to their normal color. He looked at his hands, a bit puzzled.

Langde said nothing, simply glanced at the clock on the wall. One minute passed, then five, and finally, ten minutes had elapsed. Langde finally confirmed the experiment's outcome did not result in a "bang" and explosion.

"Elder, I?" the young vampire said uncertainly.

Langde looked at him and said coldly, "Young vampire, you should thank Mr. Lin. Because of him, the experiment succeeded. This means that not only have you strengthened your power, but you can also live well."

"Thank you, Elder, thank you, Mr. Lin." The young vampire knelt down immediately, offering Lin Tian his most sincere respect.

"Alright, now tell me, how much stronger do you feel?" Langde asked calmly.

The young vampire felt carefully again and said, "Not quite double, but the energy released by the potion is very stable, and I can control it."

"Not quite double?" Langde frowned slightly. Although he had prepared himself mentally, having lowered his expectations from twice the efficacy down to not even a full doubling, the psychological gap was somewhat hard to accept.

Meanwhile, Lin Tian was thinking of something else, recalling the formula used during the brewing. Although Langde had withheld some details, not allowing him to participate in the potion preparation, Lin Tian, with his pharmacist's eye, discerned the secrets behind the formula.

In other words, Lin Tian had completely mastered this alchemical formula, and even more thoroughly than Langde. Lin Tian was confident that if he were to brew it himself, the potion's efficacy would surpass Langde's version.

However, Lin Tian remained silent, not voicing his thoughts. After all, Sinmore was not his clan, and he had no interest in contributing. Moreover, he didn't particularly care for these high-ranking vampires.

Langde waved a hand at the young vampire, impatience evident, "Leave now."

The young vampire dared not disobey and left with his head down. As he exited the passage, Lin Tian could clearly sense the young vampire's immense relief, as if he had narrowly escaped death.

"Elder, there's no need to worry. As I mentioned, if we could strengthen by 30%, Sinmore would already have a considerable advantage. Even if the Jimi Chi Clan has obtained the Blood Angel formula, they might not have fully mastered it. Their results might not even match the Elder's potion. When it comes to actual combat, stability trumps everything," Lin Tian said, feigning seriousness.

This wasn't entirely false. Lin Tian knew that the Blood Angel wasn't so easily harnessed. Even if Charlotte had acquired the Blood Angel formula and research data, she couldn't eliminate the Blood Angel's side effects.

The Blood Angel would corrode a person's sanity, even causing self-explosion. Using the Blood Angel might be a blessing or a curse for the Jimi Chi Clan.

"Mr. Lin, as you say, the potion's stable efficacy is indeed the most important factor," Langde, enlightened by Lin Tian, agreed, as he had no choice but to concur, given his limitations.

"In that case, let's go full throttle with the brewing. The two clans' conflict could erupt at any time. The more potion we have, the better our chances," Lin Tian urged once more.
