Chapter 844: City of Darkness

Chapter 844 City of Darkness

Although many people wanted to follow Duanmuhuai to Mary's world, Duanmuhuai still refused their requests. After all, that world was too special, and he generally did not dare to take people there casually.

To be honest, he was afraid that someone would be bored and buy a handicraft from a street stall, and it might be the statue of an evil god, so he refused other people's requests to go to Mary's World, and only brought a battleship from the Tribunal, and went again Came to Mary's world.

Since Mary had already communicated with the other party before, Duanmuhuai did not waste any time this time and quickly arrived at the city where the entrusting unit was located. However... the situation here was somewhat beyond Duanmuhuai's expectations.

Before entering the city, both Duanmuhuai and Mary were asked to stand under an ultraviolet lamp for irradiation, followed by some blood tests and other tests, which gave people the feeling that the entire city had entered due to some kind of plague. It's the same as a total lockdown.

 It wasn’t until all this was over that Duanmuhuai saw a bearded man appear in front of them.

 “Welcome to you and I’m very sorry to have to welcome you in this way.”

 “Looks like you guys are in really bad shape.”

As Duanmuhuai spoke, he looked around. This building is located on the outskirts of the city, at the entrance and exit of the highway. From the outside, it looks like a toll plaza. But there were armed guards everywhere inside. They even wore heavy riot gear and held heavy firepower weapons in their hands.

If the whole city was not quiet at the moment, Duanmuhuai would even think that the city had entered a state of war.

 “Actually, it’s really bad.”

The bearded man looked serious, nodded to Duanmuhuai and Mary, and then let out a sigh of relief.

“But I still thank you very much for coming. After all, you are the experts in dealing with this situation.”

 “Can you tell us the specific situation?”

"No problem at all."

The bearded man also agreed very readily, and then introduced the situation here to Duanmu Huai.

According to Big Beard, there have always been two non-human races in this city, one is a vampire and the other is a werewolf. They are mortal enemies and always kill each other. This is what Mary said before. These guys hit each other when they met, without caring about the surrounding situation. As a result, the number of shootings in the city skyrocketed. In order to prevent the people from becoming aware of the existence of vampires and werewolves and triggering panic, they had to put these things away. Treat it like a gang fight in order to gain the understanding of the public.

Of course, the citizens understand it, but they don’t accept it.

Whether it’s a vampire, werewolf or gang fight, aren’t we the ones getting shot?

 What does your government do for food?

 The citizens are complaining, and the top management is also unhappy. This is a completely unfounded disaster, and it is basically a scapegoat sent from heaven, right?

So they took the initiative and sent many investigators to investigate. Although they suffered heavy casualties, they finally got some clues.

 According to the informants and the information they received, vampires had been gaining strength some time ago and were suppressing werewolves. However, for some unknown reason, civil strife broke out within the vampires. Several elders who commanded the vampire clan died, and several werewolf leaders also died.

So all of a sudden, both sides were in chaos.

Of course, if this is the case, then it actually has nothing to do with humans, but how did humans get involved?

It's very simple. Whether it is among the vampire or werewolf forces, there have always been forces that want to conquer humans. However, the bosses of both sides used to be focused on fighting each other, and they believed that provoking humans would be dangerous, so they kept pressing their subordinates. Help people.

 But now that the bosses on both sides are dead, the following factions are naturally starting to move around like wild horses running wild.

 The first ones to act were the vampires. After all, vampires can live forever. They used these excuses to win over many people from the police, political and military circles to side with them. But the werewolves are not vegetarians. After being attacked several times by human forces controlled by vampires, they also began to attack citizens in the city at night - after all, anyone scratched by a werewolf will be infected and become a werewolf. In this way, the power of werewolves will also expand, enough to fight against vampires.

Human beings of course...can't bear this!

You two or two are all causing trouble here, and you don’t take us humans seriously, right?

Humans were more ruthless than vampires and werewolves. They first dealt with the traitors who colluded with both parties, and then began to think of ways to deal with these **** bastards. For this reason, the mayor even used the recent decline in security as an excuse to issue a curfew. , and ordered the police's special response force to block every entrance and exit of the city. All people trying to enter and leave the city must undergo ultraviolet light exposure and biochemical testing to identify whether they are humans, vampires or werewolves...

But unfortunately, this is obviously not enough. Vampires and werewolves are really powerful. Both in terms of speed and strength, they far exceed those of humans. Even experienced and battle-hardened soldiers cannot keep up with these monsters. The only solution is to use massive area-of-effect destruction - but then it will be difficult to cover up the problem.

 Fortunately, the Inquisition is here to solve the problem.

“It’s great to have the Inquisition’s assistance.”

 Getting Duanmuhuai's promise, Big Beard breathed a sigh of relief.

"But, please understand that although we allow you to move in this city, we still hope that you will try not to disturb normal citizens. Of course, we will continue to implement curfews to provide convenience for you, but..."

"I see."

Duanmuhuai nodded, of course he knew what the bearded man meant. This is actually the tacit understanding between players and the officials when they are doing things in this world - don't cross the line, and you can do whatever you want with the rest, as long as you can explain it to the past in the end.

 Of course, the official “knows nothing” about this.

 We did not instigate it, nor did we know anything about it, so everything has nothing to do with us.

 “Don’t worry, there will be no problem.”

 “Then...it’s up to you.”

The only good thing is that this city is not an international metropolis like the Fog City, otherwise it would be really difficult.

Of course, if it is an international metropolis, there is no way to issue a curfew.

 “Although I have heard about it, the situation here is worse than imagined.”

It was already evening when we passed through the checkpoint and entered the city. Under the dim sunset light, apart from the cold street lights, there were only a few people in twos and threes on the street. Although it was said to be under curfew, in fact even the patrols The police can't be seen, not even the police cars - because werewolves will attack other people anytime and anywhere. Even the police and the army can only huddle in their own stations and camps at night to avoid the other party from attacking the military camp.

  After all, there are a lot of weapons and military equipment there. If the vampires and werewolves succeed in attacking them, a war might really break out in this city. "Mr. Duanmu, how on earth are we going to find those hidden vampires and werewolves in this city?"

Looking at the city in front of her, Mary also had an uneasy look on her face. Although this was not an international metropolis, it was still considered a second-tier city with a large population, many high-rise buildings, and a large area... To be honest, Mary was not at all Know how to find targets in a city like this.

“Vampires are easy to deal with, but werewolves are a bit troublesome.”

As Duanmu Huai spoke, he glanced around.

 “Let’s go, let’s walk around first.”

As he spoke, Duanmuhuai walked forward, and Mary held down the hat on her head and followed.

 The two of them were in tandem, and Duanmuhuai was still carrying his suitcase. Matching Mary's dress, they looked like tourists who came here from other places. The local residents walking on the streets occasionally cast doubtful glances on the two of them, but soon they quickened their pace and continued walking forward.

Not long after, as the last ray of sunlight disappeared, the whole city fell into silence and darkness. On both sides of the ancient stone road, only the cold street lamps illuminated the ground, and the surrounding residential apartments could not even see the lights. This was not because no one lit the lamps, but because the windows of almost all the houses were covered with window boards or blinds. The curtains closed up.

“It feels like the surrounding area is deserted...”

While looking at the surrounding streets, Mary sighed in a low voice.

“Even if the official blocked the news, citizens are not stupid. Even if they don’t know the specific situation, they will understand that the city is not safe at night.”

Duanmuhuai snorted softly.

 “How long are we going to go like this?”

 “Wait until someone takes the bait.”

"Uh... Mr. Duanmu, with all due respect, do you really think anyone will take the bait?"

Mary looked at Duanmu Huai, who was walking in front of her like a strong man in a black tower, with a complicated expression, and she was completely speechless.

"Ordinary people definitely won't, but it's hard to say werewolves. If they treat me as an ordinary person, they will definitely come to me and cause trouble... Werewolves are famous for being brutal and stupid. Seeing that they are so strong in front of me It’s normal for you to want to challenge your muscles.”

"is that so?"

 Hearing Duanmuhuai's answer, Mary looked confused.

“Of course, don’t you think this is just delivered to your door?”

"Why?"

At this time, Mary was surprised to find that in front and behind them, there were four or five people dressed like gangsters, with colorful hair, T-shirts and leather jackets. They didn't look like good people at first glance. man.

 “Hey hey hey, hello.”

The gangster headed by him was playing with a switchblade in his hand and looked at Duanmuhuai with a half-smile.

“Are you here for a trip? Tsk, tsk, tsk, you guys are really unlucky, you chose an unlucky place.”

“I don’t think the scenery here looks pretty good.”

Duanmu Huai put down the suitcase in his hand, then stared coldly at the man in front of him, and clenched his fists.

 “Get out of here quickly, or I’ll deal with you.”

“Yoha? It seems like this brother is not too afraid of us.”

Facing Duanmuhuai’s threat, the leading man chuckled. Then, his eyes suddenly widened and he stared at Duanmuhuai fiercely.

 “So, how about this?!”

"Roar---!"

As the man finished speaking, the next moment, his body suddenly began to expand, quickly tearing the T-shirt he was wearing, his thick body hair began to grow wildly, and his jaw stretched forward. In just the blink of an eye, a man as tall as Duanmu Huai A nearly huge werewolf appeared in front of him.

 “Hahahaha, how about it? What do you think now?”

The werewolf stared at Duanmuhuai triumphantly and spoke again, while Mary was immediately stunned, not because of the opponent's werewolf transformation, but - this werewolf would really be fooled by his muscles?

Why? !

Staring at Duanmuhuai, the werewolf opened its mouth, revealing its sharp teeth. It was already imagining that the strong man in front of it would tremble in fear, scream, or even kneel down to beg for mercy - yes, This is the real power, not what your weak human body can compare with!

 However, what the werewolf saw on Duanmu Huai's face was a cold smile.

“I didn’t expect that the aliens would be so arrogant and bold. It seems that the situation in this city is indeed not good...Mary! Take action!”
