American comics: The Savior Who Started with Vampires

Chapter 6 Immortality and the Progenitor's Body!

"My God, you must be a demon hunter sent by God."

Lin Jue looked helplessly at Ges beside him, who kept rambling on and on.

God?

Lin Jue did not reveal the origin of the Blood Lord, otherwise Ges would have lost his faith!

"How are things going with your mother's side?"

"Oh, friend, thanks to you, the transfer to Manhattan Central Hospital has been successful."

Gus scratched his buzz cut, somewhat embarrassed, knowing that with American medical fees, it must have cost Lin Jue a lot of money.

"Um!"

Lin Jue gladly accepted Gus's thanks, but of course he wouldn't tell him where the money came from. At the same time, the Stone Heart Group wouldn't arbitrarily report the news of the theft of one of its vaults.

It's such a pity to miss such a good opportunity. Lin Jue never expected that the Blood Lord would dare to face the ultraviolet light directly, even after being pierced by the silver sword.

However, this time, he also benefited greatly. His eyes flashed slightly as a semi-transparent light screen, visible only to him, appeared in front of him.

林觉

Innate Talent: Dimensional Deprivation

ability:

Immortality (with limitations): Requires possession every 100 years to achieve longevity and eternal life.

Progenitor's Body (Crippled): Extraordinary physical attributes and self-healing abilities; requires blood to replenish energy! (Understand additional abilities yourself.)

Unlike before, this time, although the time spent depriving him was very short, his abilities were greatly enhanced.

Even in his personal panel, information about these two abilities that he coveted appeared. At the same time, he also understood that only by completely stripping away the Blood Lord could these two superpowers be perfectly optimized.

A burning light gleamed in his eyes.

Longevity and good fortune are within reach.

Lin Jue's lips curled slightly as he scanned the information about one of the superpowers back and forth. The Primordial Body was far more complex than the information described!

With a leap, Lin Jue jumped high into the air, and under Gus's shocked gaze, he easily leaped onto the tree trunk, reaching a height of three meters, seemingly with still some strength left!

"Oh my god!!!"

Gus looked incredulous, and a hint of wariness flashed in his eyes as he seemed to be thinking of something!

"Don't overthink it! I'm not one of those worm-covered monsters!"

Lin Jue chuckled softly, immediately discerning the reason for Gus's change in expression, which made Gus look somewhat embarrassed once again.

……

A narrow, historic street, with an old pawnshop sitting on the corner.

The heavy wooden door, weathered by time, was somewhat warped. Inside the shop, dim light illuminated the old items. An elderly man with white hair, leaning on a cane with a silver handle, slowly walked out of the shop.

His aged eyes gazed at the unusually dark sky, lost in thought.

After a long while, he slowly walked back into the house, closed the shop door tightly, and hung a wooden sign that read "Closed for Business" in front of the doors and windows.

Abraham entered the inner room from a corner of the shop. Inside, the light was also dim, but all sorts of strange and unusual objects were displayed.

Most of the items were made of silver, including silver longswords, ancient longbows, and various tools used for hunting large animals. His gaze fell on a transparent glass bottle on the display table, inside which was a still-beating heart.

The surface of the heart is full of wrinkles and is grayish-white in color. Countless tiny worms spread out from the gaps in the heart, twisting and swaying in an extremely eerie way.

"Looks like you've finally come into this world!"

Abraham stared intently at the strange heart and muttered to himself.

At New York City Central Hospital, the largest and highest-level hospital in New York City, all the medical staff wore solemn expressions at this moment.

One by one, people with calm expressions and no signs of life were wheeled into the hospital.

As the clinic door opened, Yin Fu, an expert from the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, wearing full protective gear, slowly walked into the hospital, which was now under quarantine.

Nora, the assistant, was already waiting on the side.

"How is it?"

"The autopsies haven't been performed yet. The cause of death for some of them is unknown, and others have a small incision on their necks!"

Nora's face was full of solemnity. In all her years working at the CDC, this was the first time she had encountered such a bizarre situation. Most of the people had died for unknown reasons, and the wounds on the necks of others seemed to indicate that this was not as simple as the epidemic mentioned above.

"They were miners from the Allen Mine. There was a collapse underground, and they were all trapped inside. By the time the rescue team arrived, this was what they looked like!"

With a look of inquiry on his face, Yin Fu stepped straight into the isolation room. All the people he saw were dead, their skin pale.

Slowly approaching a man who seemed to have nothing wrong with him, she placed her gloved hands on the man's body and gently pressed his pale skin.

"Has this guy's body lost its elasticity?"

Incredulity filled Yin Fu's eyes, for these people had only been dead for less than a day!

"It's as if their blood has been drained by something!" Nora said softly, her face looking somewhat pale. Clearly, she had just done a rough check.

"Was all the blood drained?"

Yin Fu frowned deeply as he examined the bodies of these people, paying particular attention to several victims with incisions hidden in their necks.

"Take me to the mine!"

Led by Nora, the two then rode in a CDC vehicle toward Allen Mine.

Meanwhile, another medical worker arrived in the isolation room. David, a friend of Yin Fu, was also an expert from the CDC.

Having just received the message, he prepared to be the first to dissect these corpses.

Slowly approaching the body of one of the white men, David remained calm and began the autopsy. As the sharp scalpel pierced the pale skin, his pupils contracted sharply.

A mixture of pale yellow and white blood slowly oozed from the wound. David swallowed hard and quickly scanned his protective suit to make sure there were no omissions.

Only after checking every corner did he breathe a slight sigh of relief. He picked up the knife again and slashed open the chest of the deceased in front of him. Putting aside the white blood, the organs inside the deceased's chest cavity made David's face show disbelief.

With a look of discomfort and nausea on his face, David slowly took his heart out of his chest cavity and held it in front of his eyes, carefully observing the still-beating heart. Countless tiny worms slowly crawled from the surface of the heart toward his leather gloves.

"Fuck!"

Hastily tossing his heart aside, David frantically tore off his leather gloves. The white worms had crossed his bottom line. However, this very action caused the worms that were on his sleeve to instantly crawl toward his hand.

He frantically removed his gloves and looked at the worms burrowing into his skin. He hurriedly grabbed the tails of the worms, trying to pull them out of his body.

However, as one worm after another was pulled out, more worms slowly crawled up his arm and into his upper body through the skin layer in his palm.

"Fuck!"

Cold sweat poured down his face, and even though his hands were covered in blood, he didn't give up. But behind him, unbeknownst to him, one by one, the people who were already dead slowly sat up from their hospital beds...
