Marvel's Death Merchant

Craven, as the host, sat at the head of the ball; as a politician, he was undoubtedly successful. Amelia's envoys and committee members were very satisfied with his arrangements, and he was certain to be elected as the next leader of the region. Unbeknownst to anyone, Tang Tian and his group were soon after their reprimand and were coming to them for help.

"Though we are separated by the ocean, we share the same blood. With only two days left until Amelia arrives and awakens Marcus, we will unite once more. Let us thank our hosts for their hospitality; please raise a glass!"

Craven, who was smugly pleased with himself, was waiting for Selena's arrival. He had just instructed Erica to go and fetch her.

"Selena is no longer in the room, but the dress is still there." Erica, who was ordered to invite Selena to the ball, found that Selena was nowhere to be seen.

"Damn it, how dare she disobey my orders!" Craven stormed into the empty room in a rage, while Selena was searching for Tang Tian and Michael.

Tang Tian has completely altered the plot of Underworld, with most of the storyline changed, but the core plot remains the same. Their reunion begins.

Chapter 572 A Different Michael

Tang Tian and Michael boarded the Terminator helicopter and headed to another mercenary encampment in Alexandria. This kind of operation had been repeated countless times; Michael was the primary figure responsible for eliminating the mercenaries there. Deadpool and Tang Tian were merely bystanders; their targets were random, but Michael attacked without hesitation.

"Boss, we've spotted those guys. Should we just take them out?" Michael's icy blue eyes swept coldly over the surrounding mercenaries as he spoke emotionlessly.

Michael actually knew that it was one of his ancestor's henchmen, but he wouldn't show any mercy. Alexander's own ancestor was indeed that man, but he left behind a mess; the vampires and werewolves were the threats he created. If he had been determined to kill his two sons back then, things wouldn't have turned out this way.

"And there seem to be vampires and werewolves exploring the area," Michael added, his eyes gleaming with increasing murderous intent. He was no longer the simple man he once was; completing the mission would be a piece of cake for him.

"Very good, you seem very excited. Go! Kill those people and let them feel the power of fear." Tang Tian said coldly. He didn't care about Alexander; his ultimate value was the perfect blood in his body, which was his final worth.

On the other side, after his men left, Alexander frowned. He was facing his greatest crisis yet. Although he had lived for so long and was indifferent to his own life, it didn't mean he would just sit and wait to die. That was impossible. Alexander was a strong man, not a weakling.

"Sir, they're doing something that seems to have a very obvious, overt purpose. We've frequently spotted werewolves and vampires in the area, and those are the people they've taken down," the black man said earnestly to Alexander. Under Alexander's deliberate training, their human abilities had become quite different.

"Of course, I know that too. That young man is definitely not simple. There are always many unknowns in this world, just like my body, which can transform disease into vital energy that is beneficial to the body."

Alexander seemed to be deep in thought as he said that Tang Tian and the others' superhuman strength was starting to make Alexander think about other things.

"Alright, you can go now! Let those people use their full strength; that way, we can test the strength of my descendants," Alexander said, waving his hand. He was not without strength in the human world.

Alexander lived an exceptionally long life, so he had become indifferent to many things, even regarding vampires and werewolves as his descendants. Unfortunately, they later disappointed him, so Alexander only secretly sent troops to protect these two races, keeping them hidden from the human world. Furthermore, he used his blood to cultivate relationships with many people, significantly elevating his status.

"Stop! Who are you? Cease all movement and put your hands up!" Alexander's mercenaries looked at Michael warily upon his arrival. Michael was responsible for many of the recent events, which explained their nervousness.

"Hehehe, you will all die." Michael's icy blue eyes froze, releasing waves of murderous intent, and the blue in his eyes became increasingly solidified.

"Bang bang bang..." Just as Michael finished speaking, the mercenaries he was guarding opened fire on him, and countless metal storms came to meet him.

Michael sneered at the sight of the bullets, releasing countless icy auras capable of freezing space. The bullets in mid-air were instantly frozen solid. Michael's enhanced form, based on the comic book version, was at its peak capable of freezing the entire universe. Even without complete fusion, his power was extraordinary, more than enough to deal with ordinary humans.

"My God! What kind of power is that? It can actually freeze a website! Who could possibly possess such strength?!" The mercenary next to him exclaimed in disbelief. Michael's power terrified them; it was clearly a power that no mortal could possess.

"Hmph, a bunch of ants." Michael's icy blue eyes swept over the terrified mercenaries, his murderous intent growing stronger, devoid of any emotion. Perhaps a special force had awakened the dark side within Michael; his current demeanor was completely different from that in the movies—powerful and indifferent, with a touch of mockery beneath the coldness.

"Michael, kill them all! Let them experience the power of darkness," Tang Tian commanded. Michael nodded; he had done this many times before, so he didn't resist, because it was the right thing to do.

On the other side, Lucien, the leader of the werewolves, heard the news of Michael's appearance and ordered his men to capture Michael in order to obtain his blood so that the werewolves could rise to power.

“You guys go and capture Michael. He’s very important to us werewolves, but be careful of the people around him. They’re more dangerous than us werewolves or vampires. Watch out for their power.”

Lucien said seriously that the werewolf they sent last time was not killed by the vampire, but by Deadpool alone, which made Lucien very unhappy. The elimination of the new werewolf's subordinates made him feel bad.

"Okay, we understand." There were over ten werewolves this time, and they were all quite strong. While the werewolves were moving, only Selena, the vampire, arrived.

Michael's battle was almost over, and now the werewolves had arrived. Upon seeing the werewolves, Michael wasn't afraid but instead sneered. Seeing Michael and Tang Tian, ​​the werewolves all transformed and charged towards him, their forms radiating murderous intent.

"You've come at the perfect time! I feel great! You can all die now!" Michael instantly grabbed a werewolf by the neck and crushed it, releasing the power of ice. The werewolf was then turned into an ice sculpture.

"Crack..." The entire ice sculpture was shattered by Michael. The werewolf resisting the ice sculpture was not bad. The other werewolves wanted to escape, but it was obviously too late.

"Now you realize the danger? Too bad it's too late," Michael said coldly. In less than a minute, the other werewolves had killed him.

"You did a great job this time, let's get out of here!" After Michael completed his mission, Tang Tian and Michael left the place, and the situation was now very clear.

Just as Tang Tian and Michael left, Selena arrived late. When she saw the ice blocks all over the ground, she frowned, as if she had witnessed something terrible.

Chapter 573 Werewolf Leader Lucien

After Michael's rampage under Tang Tian's orders, he left in the Terminator helicopter. They were heading to their next destination: the werewolf stronghold.

"Boss, our next target is there," Michael asked Tang Tian coldly, reflecting his current state of mind.

"Our goal is to go to the werewolf's territory," Tang Tian said seriously to Michael after thinking for a moment. They used to look down on fighting, but their goal was to get to those werewolves.

At this moment, the flying Terminator started to shake. Sensing something was wrong, Tang Tian asked the Terminator, "Report, what's going on outside?"

Tang Tian, ​​still dressed in a suit as before, held a glass of red wine and awaited a reply: "Master, there's someone outside." Terminator Flyer gave a brief reply, preparing to wait for the current situation.

"I see! Deadpool, bring her up." Tang Tianzhen's fate was sealed, so she didn't say anything more and let her up.

“Okay, boss.” Deadpool smiled when he heard Tang Tian’s words, and then went to prepare to bring Serena up.

Deadpool was quite efficient; Selena was brought in within seconds. She didn't even have time to react before she was brought in.

"Was that person a vampire that day? Should we kill her?" Michael looked at Selena coldly and spoke to Tang Tian without a trace of emotion, his whole body radiating a chilling aura.

“Yes, that’s right, but there’s no need to kill him.” Tang Tian waved his hand, refusing Deadpool’s offer.

"Hello, Selena, the Death Walker of the Vampires." Tang Tian's words caused Selena's expression to change drastically, and she did not reply to Tang Tian.

“That’s right, I am Selena.” Selena said directly without fear. Although he wanted to use special methods, he was not sure if he could kill the werewolves. They had killed so many of them so easily, so he still dared not attack.

"Alright, let me tell you a story. A story about werewolves and vampires," Tang Tian said, pausing for a moment.

“In the past, werewolves didn’t possess intelligence, nor were they particularly strong. But one day, a werewolf fell in love with a vampire. That werewolf was named Lucien, and the vampire was named Soria. I think you should know that he is your father, Victor.” Tang Tian ignored Selena’s surprised expression and continued.

"Lucien transformed into a werewolf after witnessing his beloved woman and child being killed in front of him. His strength increased greatly, and he broke free of the chains that bound him. Before escaping, he took a badge that Soria was wearing around her neck."

He was unaware of the badge's true purpose, simply regarding it as a relic of Soria. From that moment on, Lucien swore revenge against Victor for Soria and their children. Under his leadership, the werewolf and vampire tribes engaged in a bloody war that lasted for centuries.

Because the vampire army led by Victor was too powerful, the werewolf tribe had been at a disadvantage in direct combat. Therefore, Lucien began searching for other ways to defeat the vampires. Tang Tian, ​​observing the change in Selena's expression, said nothing but continued talking to them, while Michael seemed somewhat interested as well.

"So Lucien began searching for descendants of the pure bloodline of the Corvinus family, hoping to use the mutated genes in their bloodline to create a new race capable of fusing the full power of werewolves and vampires. To lull Victor into a false sense of security, during a vampire raid, he didn't kill all the vampires, but instead spared one's life. Together, they created the illusion that Lucien was dead. Lucien even cut off a piece of skin branded with the slave's insignia and had Craven take it back to the vampire tribe to prove that he had personally killed Lucien. That vampire was Craven." Tang Tian continued calmly. These secrets were meaningless to him, but their effect on the characters in the plot was self-evident.

"It's ridiculous that this Craven, the current ruler of the vampires, is an ally of the werewolves," Michael said coldly from the side. Because of this situation, he wasn't feeling very good either.

“Crawl is just a despicable politician. I’m not surprised he would betray us with such a lack of courage, but I didn’t expect him to have been betraying us for so long. No wonder he was so vehemently opposed to me leading the search team; it turns out he’s been in cahoots with the werewolves all along. If Victor finds out about all this, Craven is dead for sure. I never imagined things would turn out this way,” Selena said, her face also grim.

"So what are Craven and Lucien's real purpose?" Selena asked Tang Tian calmly, seemingly somewhat surprised.

"At the time, Craven was fighting for his life, but of course, he also wanted power. Killing Lucien, the werewolf leader, was a huge achievement among vampires, and he would be recorded in vampire history as a hero. But things were never that simple; they were far from good."

"Does Craven intend to kill the vampire elders?" Selena thought for a moment and said seriously.

“Looks like I’ve got something to do, it’s not so boring anymore,” Deadpool said to Michael with a grin.

“It looks like that, we’ll do very well,” Michael said with a smile.

"Later, Lucien, who faked his death and went into hiding, searched for a descendant of the pure bloodline of the Corvinus family while making a secret deal with a vampire weapons expert, obtaining a large number of new weapons to counter vampires. Hundreds of years have passed, and today, Lucien has finally found the human most likely to have the pure bloodline of the Corvinus family flowing through his veins—that is, you, Michael!" Hearing this, Michael wasn't surprised; Tang Tian had already told him this, and that was the gist of the story.

"And as for vampires, or rather, death walkers, your power is indeed impressive. But compared to the divine power I bestowed upon Michael, you are still far inferior. There must be another reason why I brought you here to tell you so much. You can become Michael's subordinate, and I will also give you new power and tell you secrets. Let's see if you can seize the opportunity." Tang Tian said earnestly, looking at Selena.

"Okay, I agree." Selena had no choice. Not to mention Tang Tian and Deadpool at the beginning, even Michael now was someone she couldn't beat. Their strength was just too great, beyond her ability to fight them.

"Michael, Selena will be your subordinate from now on. Your mission is to take her and take down those guys, understand?" Tang Tian said seriously to Michael, who dared not disobey. Selena also never expected that the humans she used to despise the most would be more powerful than vampires like them.

Chapter 574 The Werewolf's Plan

"What exactly is Craven and the werewolf's plan? I want to know. Your power is beyond that of ordinary people, and you can easily kill vampires and werewolves. You might be what they call gods." Serena was worried about the future of the vampires. Before becoming Tang Tian's subordinate, she still had to consider the future of her race.

"Really? That's laughable. So-called vampires and werewolves are nothing but ants in front of me," Tang Tian said calmly to Selena, without looking at her expression.

“Those vampires and werewolves are nothing special. If they can’t become my subordinates, I’ll kill them all.” Michael’s icy blue eyes were filled with a cold light as he spoke coldly to the others.

"Please tell me, this is very important to me," Selena pleaded.

"Their plan is to kill Amelia two days later when she performs the resurrection ritual. The werewolves need her blood, and Craven can also use the werewolves to kill the remaining two elders while they are still asleep, and then seize control of the entire vampire clan." Tang Tian explained Craven and Lucien's plan in this simple way.

"Crawl, damn it, I didn't expect him to want to replace me." Selena was also a little surprised; it really wasn't easy to achieve such a position.

"But his plan is highly feasible, isn't it? If it succeeds, he will become the sole master of all vampires, but things will be different once we arrive." Tang Tian glanced at Michael and Deadpool and said calmly.

"And there's something else you'd never guess: the ancestor of vampires and werewolves is watching all of this without doing anything," Tang Tian said softly, lighting a cigar and looking at Selena with a nonchalant air.

“That person is the beginning and source of everything, your ancestor, Alexander Corvinus. He is still alive, and I am very interested in him,” Tang Tian said calmly.

"What did you say? Alexander is still alive?" Selena was clearly shocked by the news, so she didn't know what to say.

“Yes, as the first immortal, Alexander is still alive and wields considerable power. Vampires and werewolves have been fighting for centuries, yet the human world has always treated them merely as legendary figures. Don't you find that strange? Alexander is covering up the truth for you all. After all, you vampires and werewolves were born from his son. Otherwise, why do you think human governments never investigate the destruction you cause after your battles? It's Alexander's immense power that has influenced them. For centuries, he has been watching over vampires and werewolves.” Tang Tian coldly told Selena; that was the situation, and he had no choice but to believe it.

"For over a dozen centuries, did he just watch werewolves slaughter innocent humans everywhere? Why didn't he stop them? Those were his descendants!" Selena felt incredulous upon hearing this, as her own family had also been killed by werewolves, or at least that's what she believed.

“Alexander is ruthless, humans are ruthless, and vampires and werewolves are even more so. Since that’s the case, let me change all of this.” Michael said calmly. Having gained such power, he wanted to change everything, and this was a very important matter.

“I will never forget that terrifying night. My mother and sister’s dying screams woke me up. I ran out of the room and saw their bodies; I couldn’t save them. My father died outside, trying to protect us before he died. And my little niece, a pair of angelic twins, only six years old. They were all dead, my whole family was wiped out!! Slaughtered like animals by werewolves, leaving only me alive. Then I saw Victor; he drove away the werewolves and saved me. That night, he made me a vampire. Victor also gave me the power of revenge, and from then on, I thought of nothing but revenge. Alexander knew his son was a monster, why didn’t he stop him then? Then my whole family wouldn’t have died.” Selena didn’t look at the others; Tang Tian and Deadpool were unmoved, but Michael did change; a hint of melting seemed to appear in his cold eyes.

“There’s nothing left. We’ll go find the werewolves soon; they’re very important, and it’s my mission,” Michael said calmly, which surprised Selena.

“Thank you, Michael,” Selena said gratefully to Michael when she heard him say that.

"Actually, it doesn't matter if I tell you or not. The murderer who killed your family wasn't a werewolf, but a vampire. It was all a premeditated plot," Tang Tian said calmly, which affected Selena's feelings.

"How is that possible? Are you kidding me?" Selena said in surprise, because Tang Tian's strength was too terrifying and she dared not say anything.

“It’s true. This is just a setup by the vampires to make you work for them completely,” Tang Tian explained earnestly to Selena.

"You mean to say that my family wasn't killed by werewolves? How is that possible?" Selena said helplessly. She knew Tang Tian wouldn't lie to her.

"You find it unbelievable, right? The truth is, the result is this cruel, and there's nothing you can say about it," Tang Tian continued, while Deadpool beside him seemed rather bored.

"You mean I didn't actually see the werewolf kill my family?" Selena asked, puzzled. This was also what puzzled him.

"You're Victor's direct descendant, aren't you! That's what he told you, right? As for why he didn't kill you, I think it's because you look exactly like his daughter. That's why he did it on purpose. It's really pathetic!" Tang Tian said thoughtfully. Compared to Tang Tian's luck, people from other worlds aren't so lucky.

"You mean, this is their real goal?" Selena asked, somewhat incredulously.

“Of course, I believe what the boss says.” Michael said calmly. He knew Tang Tian well enough to know that Tang Tian wouldn’t bother with things he didn’t care about, after all, Tang Tian was a god and didn’t have that much time.

"Since that's the case, I'll let you see everything!" Tang Tian said, projecting scenes from the movie into his mind so he could see what was going on.

“Vampire, Victor, I swear I’ll kill you.” Selena opened her eyes and said coldly, clearly feeling very bad about being deceived.

Chapter 575 Lucien's Fear

“Selena, it’s just like you see. The power we possess is beyond what werewolves and vampires can contend with. Pathetic humans are no different from those vampires and werewolves,” Michael sighed. He was now a divine messenger, fundamentally different from before.

“So anything that gets in our way will be destroyed.” Deadpool said coldly, drawing his katana.
