The script now goes jap-ger-eng, so like I said, I bet you'll find many mistakes. Also correct the sentences if you want to, I have some very engrishy phrases there but sometimes I just don't know the particular english saying for that.
If you guys are willing to proofread, I also have the extra pages of vol. 2 (Zalem) and vol. 11 (Gun-page) up my sleeve...
Here is the picture, thing with the the numbers should be obvious.
Script
1. Explanation
2. The vampires in the universe of Alita
3. Throughout the entire history of mankind, vampires have been feared as supernatural beings.
Due to advances in biological research in the second half of the 20th century, it turned out that vampires are humans spontaneously mutated, infected with the V-virus - that alters the DNA.
The carriers of this virus are called “V-mutants”.
4. black sign: History
Because of the experiences with the strict oppression by the Christian community in the European Medieval Age, the oldest of the "V-mutants" met in the 17th century to found the secret society "La Société". In this society, they organized all the "V-mutants" living and acting alone until then all over the world, educated them and prevented them from doing exaggerated atrocities that would have only led them to their own extinction. Simultaneously, they mediated a plan that made coexistence with ordinary humans possible.
5. In “La Société”, “vampire” is known as a depreciatory term used by humans. They refer to themselves as “cognates”.

9. Altered Shock.
10. The V-virus is very difficultly transmitted. A transmission can only happen by exchanging blood or other body fluids.
Once infected, a strong physical reaction known as the "altered shock" occurs. In this, symptoms like very low blood pressure, intensive pain, hallucinations, clouding of consciousness, fever, convulsions and acampsia of the muscles last for about 70 hours. Nearly all infected ones die in the course of this process.
It is assumed that growth and sex hormones are to be linked with this death rate.
11. survival rate against age when infected
(averagely three month after the infection)
-------------------------------------------------------age
12. When the symptoms of the altered shock are kicking in, the temperature has a great influence on the survival rate also.
There is a statistic saying that the survival rate drops drastically at temperatures over 25°C. That is considered one of the factors why there are nearly no V-mutants in the troupes.
13. The three main causes for death
14. suicide
15. Even if infected ones have physically overcome the altered shock, they are not safe yet because there are now psychical dangers lying before them.
Due to the physical alterations, the aggressiveness is increasing as if with a predator (the so called blood thirst), but it happens quite often that involuntarily infected and particularly good people, because of religious or moral causes, suppress this urge and do not accept themselves after the alterations anymore.
There even is a statistic that nearly 60% commit suicide within the first 10 years of the infection because of that. This demonstrates that the only humans suited to be "V-mutants" are the ones who had the psyche of a murderer beforehand, who could kill in cold blood.
16. Killed by others
17. With "V-mutants" who, on the other hand, have fun in killing without enjoying the protective oversight of "La Société", there is a tendency to let a crime escalate blindfold.
Cases where these V-mutants themselves are attacked and killed by the police and the human society center on the first 20 years after the infection.
After that, the number of deaths due to attacks by others drops because the relevant cognates gained experience and improved their attacking skills, and they have also learned to stay calm. More than half of the death causes now are because of disputes with the likes of him.
18. Illness
19. The more resistant the body of a V-Mutants is against outer injuries, the weaker it is against illnesses.
Cancer is one of the main issues. It is assumed that this has to do with the mechanism of the cell division not aging.
It is said that the risk of getting affected with cancer 50 years after the infection is 30 times higher compared to common humans. However, 100 years after the infection, the rate of affection drops drastically.
There is an adage in the “La Société” saying that one who lived for 200 years will never lose his live, unless in a power struggle with the likes of him.
20. Causes for death after the infection
- suicide
- killed by others
- illness
--------------------------------------------------------------------- years
21. All the data from above was collected by “La Société”. Especially in Europe, “La Société” vaunted a power that allowed it to mediate with human governments. With the catastrophe, however, it foundered together with the old civilization of mankind.
