The Great Demon Lord of the American Comics World

Chapter 54, Work for Me, Death Walkers!

It was another midnight with torrential rain.

A group of handsome men and beautiful women, all wearing trench coats over black leather jackets, arrived at a subway station, led by a woman whose appearance was the most outstanding even among these handsome men and beautiful women.

The woman had black hair and blue eyes, and possessed a cool and aloof demeanor; it was Selena.

The group of handsome men and beautiful women she led, all with model-like figures and celebrity looks, were the Death Walkers who were closest to her in the Victor clan.

A death walker looked around, its nostrils flaring as if sniffing, and quickly nodded affirmatively:

"It smells like a werewolf."

Each of the death walkers has their own unique skill.

Selena is the strongest fighter, while the Death Walker who smelled the werewolf has an exceptional sense of smell, especially sensitive to the werewolf's scent.

"lead the way."

Selena said calmly.

The Death Walker nodded and followed the scent into the subway tunnel, with Selena and the other Death Walkers close behind.

Soon, the death walker who had been leading the way found a tool shed, in which there was a downward-facing well ladder.

"The smell down there is very strong; there might be a werewolf den on the lower level!"

The Deathbringer who was leading the way looked at Selena with a hint of excitement in his eyes.

Selena's eyelashes trembled slightly, her eyelids drooped, and a hint of guilt flashed in her icy blue eyes.

She knew what was below.

Below the shaft is an abandoned subway tunnel, deep inside which lies a trap set by Li Xingzhou.

And she was about to lead this group of death travelers who respected her the most into this trap.

However, she quickly hardened her resolve—although she was about to lead them into a trap, at least they wouldn't die. They would be captured and imprisoned until she and Li Xingzhou dealt with Victor.

The guilt in her eyes faded, and Selena nodded slightly, saying softly:

"Go down."

After saying that, he drew his two guns, jumped down the well ladder, landed steadily on the lower level, and then started walking forward.

Behind them, the Death Walkers leaped down the well ladder one by one, came to the lower level, drew their guns, spread out in battle formation, and advanced cautiously.

Soon, the group of death travelers arrived at a spacious abandoned platform.

Then they spotted the werewolf immediately.

It was a werewolf that was so thin it was skin and bones, looking like it was extremely malnourished.

However, it has an enormous skeleton, and its upright height is estimated to be close to 2.5 meters, making it the tallest werewolf the Deathwalkers have ever seen.

But the Death Walkers didn't seem alarmed; instead, they all looked at each other with strange expressions and puzzled expressions. One female Death Walker even muttered to herself:
"Could this guy be some NBA player who turned into a werewolf?"

“That’s not the point,” another Deathwalker frowned. “The point is, who hung it here?”

That's right, the unprecedentedly tall werewolf was hanging.

Its limbs were nailed with thick silver nails, its entire body was bound by iron chains as thick as a thumb, and its shoulder blades and collarbone were pierced and locked by a pair of anchor-shaped silver-plated iron hooks, which suspended it in the air by two thick iron chains.

The scene looked very strange.

Even though the creature suspended in mid-air was a werewolf, bound hand and foot, a deep unease still instinctively welled up within the group of Death Walkers.

A death walker, his expression tense, suggested to Selena:

"Something's not right... Selena, we should probably get out of here as soon as possible..."

No sooner had the words been spoken than several loud bangs were heard, and the lights on all four sides of the abandoned platform suddenly turned on, casting bright beams that illuminated the area where the death travelers were.

The already uneasy Death Walkers became highly tense, raising their guns and aiming them at the direction from which the light was being cast.

Step, step, step...

A rhythmic sound of footsteps rang out.

The Death Walkers turned their guns again, pointing them in the direction of the footsteps. Under their wary gaze, a tall figure, accompanied by rhythmic footsteps, came into view.

He was a young man with black hair and black eyes, and his facial features were highly sculpted.

He wore a white shirt and a black tie, with a mid-length overcoat, and carried a black umbrella. He exuded elegance and nobility, and his demeanor was graceful, like a nobleman from a family with a very long history.

The death walkers were often given orders by the nobles of the clan.

Those vampire nobles are not self-proclaimed, but true nobles who once had fiefdoms and subjects in Europe and have lived from the Middle Ages to the present.

Even the medieval nobles in the clan paled in comparison to the young man, their demeanor and bearing far surpassing his. It was like the difference between a country bumpkin imitating the manners of a nobleman and a genuine aristocrat.

Many of the death walkers even felt a strange sense of goodwill towards him. Even though they didn't know if he was friend or foe, and even though the atmosphere was eerie, they couldn't help but lower the gun barrels they were pointing at him slightly.

Only when the young man walked to within ten meters of them, crossing their subconscious warning line, did they tense up again, raising their guns and aiming them at him once more.

"Who are you?" a death walker asked in a deep voice.

The young man stopped, glanced around at the group of death travelers, and said with a smile:

"Welcome everyone. I am Leonardo Victor, and this is a recruitment event. I am your interviewer."

The death travelers looked at each other, muttering amongst themselves:
Leonardo Victor? Who's ever heard of that name?

"I've never heard of him. He's human. I don't usually deal with humans."

"A job fair? An interviewer? What on earth is this guy talking about?"

Just as he was feeling confused, Li Xingzhou clapped his hands lightly and smiled:

"Here's the thing, I have a job for you here, with room and board included, and I promise to provide you with safety and protection. I hope you can work for me and become my employees."

"..."

The death walkers were silent for a long time. After a while, a blonde, blue-eyed female death walker chuckled:
"Hey buddy, are you playing an April Fool's joke? But today isn't April Fool's Day. And besides, do you even know who we are?"

“Of course I know,” Li Xingzhou said with a smile. “You are vampires, the death walkers of the Victor clan.”

The Death Walkers were taken aback, and deep doubt and unease resurfaced in their eyes.

"Since you know we are vampires, how dare you, as a human, appear before us and ask us to serve you?"

“Of course,” Li Xingzhou said with a smile. “The Victor clan will soon cease to exist, and you will also lose your home. Only I can provide you with protection.”

Is the Victor clan about to cease to exist?
It wasn't until they heard this that the Death Walkers, who had been unable to focus due to the invisible aura emanating from Li Xingzhou and had been unconsciously listening to his nonsense, finally awoke as if from a dream and realized the truth they should have seen long ago:

This is a trap!
A trap set for this group of death travelers!

"Fire!"

The vampires, now truly alert, were no longer affected by Li Xingzhou's invisible aura and pulled the trigger on him one after another.

however……

Click, click, click!

After all the Death Walkers pulled the trigger, only the hollow sound of the firing pin hitting the barrel could be heard; not a single bullet was fired!
"Is there something wrong with the bullets?"

The Death Walkers were shocked and all looked at Selena.

The bullets they were equipped with today were all silver nitrate bullets that Selena had obtained from the clan's research department and that had only recently been successfully developed.

It is said that silver nitrate bullets are far more lethal to werewolves than ordinary silver bullets, but they are difficult to manufacture, expensive, and limited in quantity. Therefore, the Death Walkers did not fire the bullets randomly after receiving them from Selena.

Now all the guns have simultaneously gone silent...

Under the watchful eyes of the Death Walkers, Selena lowered her eyelids and whispered:
"Feel sorry."

Then he raised his head and strode towards Li Xingzhou.

She walked up to Li Xingzhou, met his gaze, then turned and stood beside him, facing the shocked, bewildered, and angry Death Walkers with composure, and said in a deep voice:
“Victor destroyed my homeland, murdered my parents, and fooled me into believing it was the work of werewolves, turning me into a vampire and making me fight for him for centuries… I now know the truth and have sworn to make Victor pay! But you, my comrades, are not my enemies I must kill. I do not expect you to follow me and turn against Victor; I only hope… that you will remain neutral until I fight Victor to the death.”

I need votes!
