I'm an antique shop owner, so it's reasonable for me to know some magic

Chapter 395 Raid, Vampires with Faith

The sudden change interrupted the confrontation between Lawrence and Su Fan.

The originally magnificent banquet hall, after it went dark, created an indescribable eerie atmosphere.

The emergency lights were turned on, allowing people to see the surrounding situation clearly.

Lawrence, who had a keen sense of hearing, immediately heard the faint screams coming from downstairs and felt something was wrong.

But even so, most of the guests at the scene still did not realize the seriousness of the problem.

Amidst the whispers, there were also excited shouts.

Only a very small number of extraordinary people in the crowd put away their previous playful intentions.

Theresa was closer to Su Fan than before.

Her five senses were not that sharp, but she could still feel the approaching evil aura.

Apparently, the building had been invaded by something that shouldn't be there.

But what is that?
Theresa didn't expect that the other party would give her the answer so quickly.

Accompanied by a scream, there was a small riot among the crowd, and then they quickly dispersed.

The former did not hesitate at all and immediately trotted forward.

Su Fan followed him towards the crowd without any hurry.

With the help of the dim light, she was able to clearly see the blood-stained human figure in the empty space where no one was standing.

The tragic scene made Theresa's eyelids twitch uncontrollably.

The limbs were broken and the abdomen was ruptured, but the cause of death was due to the dense bite marks all over the body.

"vampire!"

Before Theresa could speak, a woman's voice came from the other side.
She looked up and saw a girl with a pale face, carefully examining the body, while muttering to herself while holding a lollipop in her mouth.

"The murder method is so brutal, it should be the work of the newborn groups that have appeared recently in London."

"They are so bold as to directly invade the building to hunt. Aren't they afraid of causing an all-out war between vampires and humans?"

Halfway through her speech, the girl bit her lollipop into pieces with a crunch, and then, as if she sensed Theresa's puzzled look, she looked up and smiled.

"My name is Hariya Mias, and I'm Lawrence's teammate...I'm the guy in the leather jacket who was confronting your friend."

"He's mentally ill to help Chris... In consideration of the information I provided, can you spare his life and kill Chris?"

Theresa was unable to follow the other party's jumping logic and just nodded blankly.

She was about to ask the girl in front of her more questions, but she heard the conversation of the guests not far away.

"I didn't expect there would be such a program in the evening. It's really fresh."

"The fight between extraordinary people is much more interesting than the underground Colosseum. Those stupid beasts can't produce such an effect."

"What else is there to do? Serve it up quickly. If it suits my taste, you will all be rewarded handsomely."

"Don't they realize that the situation is now developing in an uncontrollable direction? Why is it still like this?"

Theresa couldn't believe it.

"You have to know who is standing here."

Su Fan arrived late and just happened to hear Theresa's mumbling to herself. He spoke in a sarcastic tone.

"Most of them are lazy and have no knowledge of crops. They are good for nothing except eating, drinking and having fun. They are real wastes. But if God gets the urge to start a flood again one day, they can all get on Noah's Ark."

"Because they are born different from others, the word danger does not exist in their lives at all."

"Even if there is, it is just a trick created by the subordinates to please them."

"It's like being trapped in a transparent, impenetrable film for a lifetime. How can such a person have a sense of crisis? After all, people cannot imagine something they have never seen before."

Su Fan said this and paused.

“But there are some smart people among them.”

……

"What's the situation, can it be resolved?"

Behind Lawrence, the man who had previously left his social circle to look for him finally arrived.

The latter was a tall and sturdy man, with typical Anglo-Saxon looks and the British characteristic of premature baldness.

The shiny forehead can even reflect some light under the emergency light.

However, such an abrupt scene did not attract Lawrence's attention.

"It's very bad. We are still waiting for news."

Lawrence hesitated for a moment, then dragged Chris to the corner like a dead dog.

Then escort the man to the wall.

Those metal blades were like dangerous piranhas, constantly moving around the two men and forcing back anyone who tried to move forward.

Coming to a quiet place, he finally had time to sort out the current situation.

[There was a problem on the top floor, and screams were heard from downstairs, proving that the intruders were coming up from below, floor by floor.]

[A group that can silently invade a building and occupy all the floors below can no longer be simply summarized as a criminal gang. ]

[There are at least a few extraordinary people among them. ]

What exactly are they seeking?

He had seen a madman who had massacred the entire administrative department of a small town just to make a name for himself.

I have also seen strong people who have great power but bow down to money.

There is too little information now, and it is impossible to judge the other party's motives.

"The signal is down."

At this moment, the man behind him held up his cell phone and indicated the signal bar on it.

“Not just regular cell phones, but even satellite phones didn’t work.”

Soon after the man finished speaking, a voice came into Lawrence's ears.

[The outside of the building is covered with a layer of gray mist. ]

[Anyone who tries to touch it will fall into madness, and spirits will not be able to pass through it, and may even be completely absorbed by it. ]

[We are currently trying physical methods... but the results are not very good at the moment. 】

The first time a member of the team took the initiative to contact us, it was not good news.

These intelligence messages that came in continuously reminded Lawrence again and again of the severity of the current situation.

They have become birds in a cage, unable to escape. They can only wait for the mastermind behind the scenes to show up and then find a way to break the current situation.

"Damn..."

Lawrence glanced at Chris, who was still lying unconscious on the ground, and couldn't help but curse.

As a member of the team responsible for detection and positioning, he was enjoying the banquet the whole time and was not alert at all.

Lawrence knew that the other party couldn't hear his curses at all.

The consciousness was separated from the body for a long time, and even if it returned later, it was extremely weak. Chris was now completely unconscious.

Of course, even if he wasn't in a coma, he wouldn't be able to play any role in his vegetative state.

Just when they were at a loss, a white sphere suddenly popped out from the corner.

Lawrence looked down and saw a human skull bouncing towards him.

He did not destroy the strange skull immediately, but squatted down and picked it up.

The skull and jaw opened and closed, and a woman's voice was heard amid the noise of bones colliding.

Hariya, the Gothic girl he had talked to before, is actually a necromancer.

The skull message is one of that guy's many evil hobbies.

"It can be confirmed that the perpetrator is a newborn vampire. He may be hiding in a corner of the banquet hall. We cannot rule out the possibility that he may be assisted by other forces."

"I will continue my investigation here. You just stay where you are and protect our distinguished employer."

The information sent by Hariya made Lawrence feel a little relieved.

Knowing the true face of the enemy will enable you to formulate a strategy to deal with it.

Just when he was relieved that the situation had improved, a pungent fishy smell hit him in the face!

Almost in the blink of an eye, Lawrence mobilized the steel knives surrounding himself to attack forward.

Even though he couldn't see, his intuition, developed through numerous life-and-death battles, enabled him to respond quickly and correctly.

However, these steel knives, which were powerful enough to easily cut through the flesh of a living creature, did not penetrate the enemy's body. Instead, they collided with its skin, making crisp sounds of metal colliding.

The first wave of attack was ineffective, but Lawrence did not stop for a moment.

After taking the initiative, the attack is continuous, not giving the opponent any chance to breathe.

The sound of clinking continued in the ears, and the flying steel knife was controlled by magnetism in the air again and flew towards the enemy.

The surface of the steel knife reflected the image of a humanoid beast with scarlet and ferocious eyes.

It's a vampire after all...

After confirming his opponent, Lawrence recalled a portion of the steel knife, causing it to fly in a circular orbit around him at an accelerated speed.

The centrifugal force generated by the rotation continuously accelerated it, turning the already fast flying knife into almost a silver flowing shadow.

However, at this moment, the floor under Lawrence's feet suddenly shattered.

Two pale arms broke out of the ground and grabbed his ankles with such force that they almost crushed his bones!
This is what they did!
Lawrence immediately tensed his body muscles and burst out with great strength, and actually broke free from the restraints of the defeated claws.

Just when he was about to launch a counterattack, he caught a glimpse of a scene in the corner of his vision that made his heart stop.

A beautiful woman with long sharp teeth restrained the bald man who had been talking to him from behind.

The hand gently stroked his chin as if stroking a lover's cheek, but Lawrence knew that if the other party used a little more force, the man's head would be separated from his neck!
But the woman did not seem to have the intention of killing the hostage immediately. She stomped on the floor and fell from the banquet floor together with the man who screamed in fear!

Damn it! Damn it!
Lawrence was furious, his eyes were bloodshot, he deftly turned his body in the air, kicked away the vampire that was rushing towards him, and nailed it to the ceiling with the flying knife that he had accelerated earlier.

Without bothering to finish off the enemy, he went to the hole and checked the situation below, only to see an extremely horrifying scene.

In the darkness, numerous eyes like red lanterns were crowded together below.

With the flickering arcs bursting out from the damaged wires nearby, Lawrence was finally able to see their faces clearly.

These were a group of hungry, bloodthirsty monsters, but at this moment, their faces did not show any madness that indicated they had lost their minds. Instead, they were filled with strange looks.

It was an expression Lawrence had only seen on the face of a priest he had met long ago.

That is the piety of being willing to devote one's life to something higher than humanity!
The object of their worship is naturally not themselves, so who is it...

Suddenly Lawrence was shocked and subconsciously took a half step back, then raised his foot as if he had been electrocuted.

What the other party is worshipping is something on the other side of the floor beneath his feet!

what exactly is it?
He took a deep breath and prepared to go forward to take a closer look.

But in this short period of time, all the vampires on the floor below suddenly disappeared.

Not only that, even the one that was originally fixed by the sharp blade on top disappeared.

Where did you go? !
Lawrence was anxious and was about to jump when a hand grabbed his collar.

"I won't stop you if you want to die, but before that, at least recommend someone who is similar to you to replace you in the team."

A deep bass voice came from Lawrence, who turned his head and saw a man with red hair and black-framed glasses.

"Oliver...are you no longer required to carry out the escort mission there?!"

"Like you, the target of our escort was abducted."

Unlike his voice, Oliver looks like the skinny and gloomy guy in movies and TV dramas who only knows how to study.

But Lawrence was unusually calm when faced with him.

"What about the rest?"

"It's almost the same in Shiloh. All in all, our mission this time is a complete failure."

As Oliver spoke, he looked around and saw Chris lying on the ground in a "deep sleep".

"What's wrong with this guy? And where is Hariya?"

"This……"

Lawrence was about to explain what had just happened when he was interrupted.

"Never mind, none of that matters."

"Next, we have to prepare to atone for our sins and take the master back from the vampire."

The man casually pulled out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, and took a long puff.

"Otherwise, we will just be hunted to death by the big guys in London."

If an important person is killed, other countries may take a fancy to their team's assassination ability and intervene to protect them.

But as security guards, they had to watch helplessly as the people they were protecting were abducted by vampires and died. They were undoubtedly losers with no value.

No one cared even if it was chopped into pieces by the British military.

"There are so many of them. I'm afraid we can't kill them all with just a few of us."

Lawrence frowned.

Vampires may not be able to defeat them now, but they have a long lifespan compared to ordinary humans.

Once they hold a grudge against you, they will come to seek revenge on you when you are old and frail with many children and grandchildren, and you will have no way to resist.

If we want to do it, we must root out the problem completely.

"With so many people here, there will always be people willing to help. Don't forget, we are all in the same boat now."

Oliver slowly blew out a smoke ring.

There are enemies outside, watching covetously. As long as the guards with special abilities are not stupid, they will start seeking cooperation.

When the time comes for a joint crusade, how can a group of newly born vampires resist?
"But before that, I need to share the intelligence I have obtained with others. Where is Shiloh?"

"I'm here……"
