What?! My anime figurines have all come true!

However, Liu Yaowen still had to explain this to prevent the younger generation from being curious (and courting death) and investigating.

"The enemy that the Gao family has provoked this time is beyond the reach of our small countermeasures department. Furthermore, all information about the Gao family will be classified as confidential and no one may access it without authorization."

After saying that, Liu Yaowen turned and left the conference room.

Huang Qingque followed closely behind, and only spoke when no one was around: "Has it escalated to this point?"

"Well, the existence of the Black Rock Shooter is not a big deal; they are just one or more mysterious and powerful individuals."

Liu Yaowen nodded.

"But the existence that the Gao family has provoked... is not simply something that cannot be detected by any means of divination!"

"From the initial attack by a psychopath, to the setback suffered by the Xuanmen practitioners hired by the Gao family, to their search operation in Shanghai with you and your team, and the Gao family's hacker group unfortunately running into a mysterious hacker group called [Funeral Parlor]..."

"Everything seemed to be arranged, and while dealing with them, they didn't forget to give us benefits (capturing their pawns abroad)!"

At this point, Liu Yaowen cautiously glanced around and whispered:

"Based on the information revealed above, it's likely that someone used their abilities to change their fate..."

"destiny?!"

Huang Qingque could hardly believe it when she heard this.

Even a supernatural profession like the Celestial Master, who can foresee the future, can only see but not touch, let alone change or guide things toward a certain future!

"Keep your voice down! Sigh, that's why beings of that level are not something ordinary mortals like us can touch."

Huang Qingque nodded silently upon hearing this.

Perhaps her master, the current leader of the Tianyan Sect, can see the being that controls destiny.

Unfortunately……

The thought of her master, who was soaking in the life support pod, filled Huang Qingque with sadness.

drop by drop...

At that moment, Liu Yaowen's cell phone rang.

Upon closer inspection, there was no caller ID or number displayed.

Huang Qingque understood that this was an internal communication, so she consciously stepped back and did not listen to the conversation.

"It's me, what's the matter?"

Liu Yaowen answered the phone, and his previously relaxed brows suddenly furrowed.

"Okay, okay... I understand, I'll send someone over right away!"

After hanging up the phone, Liu Yaowen rubbed his forehead, then took out a bottle of medicine from his pocket, poured out a few pills and swallowed them.

"Blood pressure medication?"

Huang Qingque stepped forward and glanced at the medicine bottle.

"Yes, a lot has happened lately, and I'm under a lot of pressure..."

Liu Yaowen smiled.

After calming down, he said to Huang Qingque.

"We have a mission. According to our informant, a cargo ship will dock at the port tonight, carrying two vampires who have illegally infiltrated. You'll be leading a team to capture them!"

"understand!"

Huang Qingque saluted, then turned and left.

Chapter Fifty-Five: Vampire Sisters Smuggling Themselves into China

Late at night, at the port of Shanghai.

A cargo ship slowly docked in the port. After completing the inspection and handover with the port staff, the people on board disembarked and went to explore downtown Shanghai.

After the last person left, two pairs of scarlet eyes opened inside the once calm cargo ship.

There are indeed two vampires here.

"Sister, have you determined the compass's orientation?"

One of the white-haired, red-eyed girls looked to her side and asked the older woman who resembled her by about 70%.

"It's confirmed. The stolen sacred coffin has indeed entered the territory of Shenzhou. We need to proceed with caution from now on."

Upon hearing this, the white-haired, red-eyed mature woman holding an exquisite compass nodded.

She then pushed the locked metal container door, and the outer iron chain instantly shattered, while the lever bent from a straight line into a C-shape.

The neon lights illuminating the night sky and the scenery of the international metropolis came into view as the container door opened, moving the two vampire girls deeply.

"It looks even better than Paris... Is this China? I thought it would be more classical."

The younger sister looked somewhat at a loss.

When I heard my elders talk about China in the past, they often described it as tranquil and elegant.

Only the most vibrant and down-to-earth major city (the capital) resembles a majestic dragon coiled on the earth, swallowing and spitting out all the wealth of the world.

However, the Shanghai they saw before them was even more prosperous than Paris, the romantic city they had seen when they were born!

It's nothing like the China they've come to know.

"...Alita, the Elder seems to be talking about China from several hundred years ago."

The older woman standing to the side pondered for a moment before realizing that the person who had been telling them the story hadn't left the house in centuries and didn't even know how to use a smartphone.

"Won't we be discovered if we go straight into the city?"

The younger sister asked with some concern.

"Don't worry, I've already studied the clothing of ordinary people beforehand, so the disguise will be absolutely foolproof!"

The mature woman smiled confidently, and then the shadows beneath their feet surged, covering their entire bodies like liquid.

In the blink of an eye, their magnificent classical aristocratic gowns transformed into Victorian Gothic outfits—black linings, black trousers, leather vests, high boots, belt embellishments, and stylish long trench coats.

If Chen Xiao saw this, he would probably complain that these two vampires looked like hunters who had walked out of Bloodborne.

"Is this what commoners wear?"

The younger sister lowered her head and spun around in place, seemingly quite satisfied with the outfit.

She had originally thought that the clothes her sister designed for commoners would be made of the kind of fabric that would tear easily, but it turned out to be just clothes with fewer frills than the ones she usually wore.

Besides that, there's another problem...

"Sister, I feel a tightness in my chest."

The younger sister tugged at the lining, which finally allowed the two tightly packed balls of flesh to relax.

"..."

The older woman silently glanced at her younger sister's chest.

After a long pause, he turned his head and said in a somewhat stiff tone:

"That kind of thing is not important."

She then walked ahead, with her sister close behind, and the two of them jumped from the cargo ship into the port.

Compared to the older sister who was focused on the compass, the younger sister was more curious about this unusually quiet port.

"It feels so quiet, sister."

"I'm halfway there," my younger sister said curiously.

"There are no workers on duty in the port, which is very different from the port of Hanoi in Paris."

The mature woman nodded upon hearing this and replied:

"Yes, the workers in the port have probably all gone to the city to rest."

"Ha, but even if there are a few people on duty, they won't be able to spot us."

The younger sister held the back of her head with both hands, looking relaxed and content.

"You seem quite happy."

The older woman turned to look at her younger sister.

"Of course! This time, not only will I be able to retrieve the Holy Coffin and make amends, but I'll also get to travel around China. I'm going to have to brag about it to my sisters when I get back!"

When she said the last sentence, the younger sister couldn't help but smile.

"yes……"

The older sister seemed to be affected by her younger sister's emotions and couldn't help but grin.

That's true; the orthodox vampires of Europe haven't set foot on the land of China for a long time.

In a sense, the two of them are the first vampires to actively engage with this ancient civilization since the Great Elder hundreds of years ago.

Thinking about it this way, I'm actually a little excited!

buzzing...

However, just as the mature woman's lips curled into a slight smile, she sensed a threat and her lips instantly fell back. Then, a slender silver sword slowly rose from the shadows.

"elder sister!"

The younger sister beside her saw this and realized something was wrong; a silver longsword also rose from the shadows behind them.

*Slap slap slap slap...!*

Before the two sisters could make a move, a bright white light suddenly burst forth from the surrounding containers, illuminating a ten-meter radius around them as if it were daytime!

"This is ultraviolet light?!"

The mature woman was startled by what she saw.

Although they, as orthodox vampires, do not die from sunlight like the inferior species recorded by humans, the ultraviolet rays in sunlight can still suppress their physiological discomfort.

[Blood Magic - Blood Mist Avatar] x2

In order to get away from the area covered by ultraviolet lights as soon as possible, the two sisters raised their hands, and black mist with the color of blood burst out from their bodies.

The outer layer of black mist successfully blocked the ultraviolet radiation, allowing the two sisters, who had turned into gas and were hidden deep inside, to move their bodies.

Just as the black mist they had transformed into was about to break through the ultraviolet light, golden talismans suddenly lit up on the surface of the surrounding containers, forming a huge golden barrier that trapped them in the middle.

"There's no escaping it..."

Unable to maintain their black mist state, the two reverted to their original forms and had to bend down, pulling up their coats to shield themselves from the ultraviolet rays.

Fortunately, not long afterward, the power of the surrounding ultraviolet lamps began to decrease, which finally made things a little easier for them.

At this moment, Huang Qingque appeared within the range of the light, looking at the two sisters with surprise. Apart from being a little weak, they were almost unharmed.

"Even ultraviolet lamps couldn't cause any damage, so it seems that you two are from clans of considerable rank within the vampire race."

"You..."

The two sisters looked over at the sound, and were about to start cursing, but when they saw that Huang Qingque was wearing an official special forces uniform, they had to suppress their fierce expression.

Looking around, the two noticed that in addition to the ultraviolet lights, there was a group of armed police officers carrying assault rifles, whose magazines were probably filled with mercury bullets designed to target vampires.

The two sisters: ...

The sisters were drenched in sweat.

"Sister, didn't you say it would be foolproof?"

The expressionless younger sister looked at the mature woman beside her.

"..."

The mature woman's expression remained unchanged upon hearing this.

Although she didn't answer her sister's question, she seemed confident.

However, the next moment...

"We surrender."

The mature woman gave a standard French White Flag salute.
