Chapter 115 Suspect Tracking
Morbius planned to drink the blood pack to recover, but Deacon Frost of course wouldn't let him.

Just kidding, he had finally set up a trap and surrounded his target.

If he lets the other party run away, wouldn't all his efforts be in vain?

In an instant, Deacon Frost burst out with amazing speed, rushed forward in a few steps, reached out to grab the blood pack, kicked Morbius away, and then added insult to injury, knocking the opponent unconscious with a heavy punch.

Seeing his extraordinary power, the men next to him immediately jumped out to cheer for their boss.

"Great, Boss Frost, I knew you were the best!"

"What a lousy Daywalker! He's no match for our leader!"

Being flattered by his subordinates, Deacon Frost smiled smugly.

He enjoyed this feeling.

This was something he couldn't feel in his family.

As a hybrid vampire who changed his career halfway, he often doesn't get the respect he deserves.

Therefore, even though he knew that his younger brothers were just trying to flatter him, he still felt very happy.

"You guys, take that guy with you."

Giving the order casually, Deacon weighed the blood bag he had snatched in his hand, tore open the seal on it, and took a big sip.

"Pah, what the hell is this!"

As soon as the artificial blood entered his mouth, he immediately vomited it out in disgust.

He had never drunk blood that tasted so bad before. It was completely bland and tasteless, without any of the sweetness and fragrance of real blood.

Moreover, he roughly felt it.

The power provided to him by artificial blood was less than one-third of that provided by real blood.

No wonder this Daywalker is so weak, he doesn’t even have half of Blade’s abilities.

But maybe this is for the better.

All he wanted was the unique blood of the Daywalker to complete a mysterious ritual.

Of course, the weaker the Daywalker is, the better, so that it will be easier for him to capture him.

With a look of disgust on his face, he threw the bag of blood aside, took the captured spoils, and returned to the base camp with a group of his followers.

As for the dead bodies of vampires, Deacon ignored them completely.

They are just a group of temporarily converted cannon fodder. He won't feel sorry no matter how many of them die.

Even if there were still living creatures inside, he was too lazy to waste his own blood to heal them.

Losers are losers, not worth saving. Turning into ashes in the sun is the only fate that those losers deserve.

……

The next day.

Near Central Park.

Tommy's home.

Tommy received bad news just after finishing breakfast.

"Boss, there's something wrong at Giant God Company."

The situation was urgent, so Jin kept it short.

"Dr. Morbius did not come to work today. Our people went to his home but did not find Dr. Morbius."

"Does that mean the doctor is missing?"

Tommy frowned slightly.

He has always paid attention to the safety of people around him.

Whether it is Candice or Kim standing in front of him, they are secretly protected by bodyguards when they travel.

There will also be security personnel guarding the two people's residence day and night, 24 hours a day.

This security system covers not only the people around him, but also some senior executives in the company.

After Kurt Connors and Michael Morbius joined, they naturally enjoyed the same treatment.

It’s just that the security guards’ methods were very sophisticated, and the two men didn’t know it.

There is no way, since we are Americans who value "freedom".

Sending people to provide close protection could easily be mistaken for surveillance, which made the two doctors feel disgusted.

Although, Tommy did have some intention of surveillance.

Speaking of this, he suddenly thought of a question.

"Where are the bodies of those bodyguards? I need to check them immediately."

Without Jin saying it, he knew that the people he arranged must be dead.

Otherwise, he would not have received the news only now. And the facts were exactly as he thought.

……

In the morgue, several bodies were neatly laid out on the boards.

Tommy briefly checked the situation and his expression immediately became serious.

"The hand bone was broken and half of the rib was broken. If that was all, it would be normal and could be explained by a fierce fight before death.

It’s just these two rows of teeth marks on the neck, and the blood loss on the body…”

All clues indicate that the one who killed his men was not an ordinary enemy.

It is very likely the legendary vampire.

That’s right, if even Daredevil and the Hand can show up, what’s so strange about a few more vampires?

But there was one thing that made him curious: what was the purpose of those vampires kidnapping Dr. Morbius?

"One more thing, boss."

As Jin spoke, he took out a transparent plastic bag, inside of which was the bag of artificial blood.

"This is what we found at the scene. There are the doctor's fingerprints on it."

Tommy looked at it, thinking about it.

"If that's the case, some things might make sense."

He had read Dr. Morbius' resume before, which said that he had won the Nobel Prize with this kind of artificial blood.

For humans, artificial blood is more used for medical purposes to save patients' lives.

But for that group of vampires, artificial blood is their source of life and the food they rely on for survival.

This is most likely the reason why Dr. Morbius was kidnapped.

Finding the reason is secondary. The most urgent task now is to find the robbers' location as soon as possible and rescue them first.

Tommy immediately gave orders and decided to launch a search from multiple directions.

First, contact the New York police and ask them to investigate the surveillance video near the missing location to find out the movements of the robbers.

This is the simplest but also the most troublesome method, and it consumes the most time and energy.

Second, investigate major hospitals in New York to find out whether there have been any large-scale blood trafficking incidents recently.

Also, pay attention to the streets and alleys to see if there are any places where homeless people and beggars often go missing.

Since it's called a vampire, of course it drinks blood.

They cannot survive without drinking blood.

If you want to get a large amount of blood, the most reliable way is, of course, to buy it on the market.

But that is a luxury only the rich can enjoy.

Poor vampires without money can only launch sneak attacks and prey on homeless people on the streets.

Third, based on the materials needed for artificial blood, observe the market trends and find out which places are purchasing large quantities of related materials.

This is also a way.

After all, it’s hard for a clever woman to make a meal without rice.

No matter how talented Morbius is, it is impossible for him to create artificial blood by rubbing the air with his hands. A large amount of materials would be required.

Therefore, as long as we conduct targeted investigations, we may be able to discover some clues and find the lair of those vampires.

"Also, have all the pensions been paid?"

The bodyguards he sent out were all elites specially selected from Italian families.

Now that he is dead in a foreign land, Tommy must of course express his feelings.

After all, rule without humanity is short-lived.

You can't cultivate loyal subordinates by just making promises all day long.

"It has been done. The money has been transferred to their family's card as soon as possible. I have also sent people to visit them to express my condolences."

In this regard, Kim was very perceptive and got everything done without Tommy having to say much.

"Okay, go and do your work."

Kim was waved away, but Tommy did not go with him.

He stood in the room, took one last look at the bodies of his men, then turned and left.

He remembered this grudge.

Anyone who dares to touch him, no matter who the enemy is, will pay a heavy price!
