Holy Fist Palace
“There is a wide scale conflict with the Blood Breeds in the western area. I’ve already sent people to handle the situation, but the situation is getting more severe by the second and we may not make it in time.”
Xander reported softly before Garen.
He wasn’t just reporting to Garen; Quentin was there as well. Both of them looked like they were having a dilemma as they frowned.
Inside the study room, Garen was busy reading the latest intel report. He was the only one in the room making noise as he flipped through the confidential report.
After a while, Garen closed the doc.u.ment, raised his head and looked at both of them.
“How far has the conflict with the Blood Breed spread in the region?”
“California. It is still expanding and through word of mouth, more and more citizens have acknowledged the existence of Blood Breeds. The notion of their world being controlled by the Blood Breeds have incited the majority’s dissatisfaction. There were people in some of the cities, who practiced the fist technique, that captured the vampires and paraded on the streets as they protested the Blood Breeds holding the upper hand,” Quentin explained.
“The spread of violence wouldn’t be this fast without people from the Witches a.s.sociation and AG fanning the fire, right?” Garen said coldly.
“Yes,” Quentin confirmed, “their main objective is to incite fear and hatred normal citizens towards the Blood Breeds.”
“Then we will flow with the current for now. Conflicts are unavoidable and what we can do now is wait,” Garen decided calmly.
“Wait? Shouldn’t we send some people out?” Quentin questioned.
“There’s no point in doing so. If we can’t find the Death Apostle’s actual bodies, we cannot truly kill them. Take Tu Lan as an example,” Garen shook his head.
Speaking of Tu Lan, that person had truly fallen in love with the Holy Fist Palace. It was as if she was an addict as she hid in her room while she continuously trained the Fantasy Fist given to her. She had the Soul Primer transferred directly from Garen. She possessed the physical attributes of a Death Apostle, which could be the reason for her ridiculously fast progress.
This made Garen very relieved. If not for the restriction of the Soul Primer’s aura, resulting in the Blood Breeds being unable to learn the King’s Fist Fist Technique, the Blood Breed would easily surpa.s.s the humans.
She was barely under Garen’s control as of now. She was considered as one of the Holy Fist Palace’s strongest members, and below her was Dahm, Hochman, the Four Major Generals. They were no match for this Blood Breed.
However, all of them were still considered very powerful.
“We will leave this issue for now. We will talk about this later on when the conflict between the humans and Blood Breeds has reached a certain level. We’ll go to the meeting first,” Garen stood up.
Both disciples slightly nodded respectfully.
Three of them exited the room, walked across a corridor and entered a magnificent silver hall.
The hall was rectangular and there was a ten-meter-long black rectangular stone table placed in the middle of the room. Both sides of the table had been fully filled up.
The head of Rexott and other representatives from all sorts of major fist sects were there. Furthermore, a few General Level officers from the military and politicians from multiple nations were there as well. Within such a short timespan, the Holy Fist Palace had attracted many powerhouses due to their unique and mysterious fist techniques.
The authority they possessed in America was so powerful that no one could ignore them at all.
These connections were made possible by Dahm and Hochman, and one of the politicians was even a member of theirs.
The crowd had already lost their patience. This crowd had many big shots with political or finance backgrounds and they were all waiting for a youngster who was in his twenties. This notion itself made them very unhappy.
If not for the mysterious authorities of the Holy Fist Palace that had huge influences, and the fact that they were the only strength that could fight against the Blood Breeds, these people wouldn’t even bother attending this meeting.
Then, the main entrance of the hall was pushed open.
Three people walked into the hall slowly. The one leading at the front was Garen who was in white Taoist clothes and a black mysterious mask. One could faintly see that one of his eyes seemed blind as there was no expression in it. His golden hair flowed freely by his shoulders and would wave around behind as he walked.
As Garen entered the scene, the big shots by the table started discussing among themselves softly. Some of them even scoffed loudly to express their dissatisfaction, and there were some staring at Garen coldly in an attempt to mess with this youngster with tricks to gain control of the meeting.
This meeting was filled with individuals with great authority. If anyone were able to control this power, it would not influence just America, but even Europe and other regions. After all, the big shots could penetrate anywhere with their economic power.
Everyone started to feel greedy.
Garen brought Quentin and Xander pa.s.s the table as they walked towards the main seats and sat down.
“Alright, let’s commence the inner meeting of the Holy Fist Palace,” he said softly.
“Lord Holy Fist, the reason we requested this inner meeting is with regard to the increasing aggressiveness of the Blood Breeds towards the humans. We have to come up with a regulation and solution to this issue immediately. At the very least, emergency countermeasures are a must.”
A senator pet.i.tioned calmly.
“I believe that the main objective of this meeting was to select an individual as a conference leader who is able to oversee the whole operation and make the necessary decisions,” he proposed naturally. “Although Lord Garen has overwhelming power that could rival the Death Apostles, this individual requires more than just overall strength. He needs to oversee the situation and coordinate strategically.”
“When the Blood Breeds are cornered, they may ambush our weaknesses such as lord Garen’s family members or best friends. It would be very troublesome if they were to do so,” another senator nodded in agreement. “We definitely need a leader who is able to plan far ahead and oversee the situation.”
“No one has to worry about this. I’ve already placed my underling’s Blood Breed members all over the country to ensure the safety of the regions. Furthermore, we have also deployed the latest technology from the Rexott Group to survey the areas all day long,” Garen answered calmly.
He understood the feeling of these people who have been oppressed by the Blood Breeds. He didn’t care in the least about overseeing the situation and such, as these could be pa.s.sed down to the experts to handle it. After all, these people hated the Blood Breeds more than he did, and the only way they could obtain authority as a human being was to destroy anything that threatened them.
“I have no comment regarding a personnel to oversee the operation. The Holy Fist Palace is a huge base and no Blood Breed outsiders can infiltrate this place, so everyone can discuss anything related to the Blood Breeds with ease,” Garen said calmly.
“Thank you, Lord Garen, for this is rather important. The powers of the Blood Breed know no bounds, and the only thing that is keeping us safe as of now is the Holy Fist Palace. It’s funny that Jackson thought that he was safe because they’d placed down safety measures around them, right?” an officer shook his head. The officer that he spoke off, Jackson, had been a.s.sa.s.sinated by a Blood Breed the previous night at two o’clock in the morning. It wasn’t just him; there were other reputable, racist senior officers of the resistance that had been killed or captured by the Blood Breeds as well. This shocked the world and was the reason why so many high ranking officers had gathered at the Holy Fist Palace today.
“We need to strike back with all our might!! We must show those Old Generation Blood Breeds what we’re capable of!”
“However, we first need to know how deeply the Old Generation Blood Breeds have infiltrated into our place.”
“The most important thing right now is to able to differentiate between a Blood Breed and a normal being. Our Group has developed a unique device that is able to differentiate between us and the Blood Breeds by a.n.a.lyzing heartbeats. We should be able to deploy this soon.”
“If the department of cardiology of the Holy Fist Palace is willing to cooperate with us, we can definitely make huge progress.”
Garen beckoned and Tu Lan immediately appeared behind him. After understanding Garen’s intention, she soon partic.i.p.ated in the discussion. The Blood Breeds that were controlled by the Holy Fist Palace were called the New Generation Blood Breeds and they were all under the order of Tu Lan, and they formed their own branch of power. Their Soul Primer had been removed personally by Garen so that Tu Lan could inject the Soul Primer that she had created with her Secret Technique’s aura. This way, they would be directly under her.
With a hand by his head, Garen listened to the never-ending discussion of the crowd and soon a simple countermeasure against the Blood Breed had been formed.
Then the orders were transferred and spread out across America via wireless transmission, and everyone started moving.
Garen observed these people getting worked up while he remained unfazed.
Rexott Group and two other economic groups’ representatives kept giving out recommendations that were all adopted. It was no surprise, as they were the powerhouses that had been researching the Blood Breeds in the dark for countless of years. They finally had the opportunity to s.h.i.+ne at this time.
This was especially true for Rod’s brother. Although he looked like a cool and handsome young man, his underling had developed a special virus that could be used against the Blood Breeds. It was a biological weapon that could weaken the Blood Breeds to the point where they couldn’t muster up any power. Their limbs would tremble and they would even lose their consciousness if it was serious.
The humans had been oppressed for far too long…
Garen sighed in his mind.
The moment he’d given them an opportunity, the power of their determination to resist had stunned even Garen.
A biological weapon, spirit explosive grenade, infrasonic wave oscillator, blood nucleus detector, et cetera. All sorts of countermeasures had been proposed one by one. At first, the group had felt that they had limited strength, but once everyone gathered their knowledge together, they realized that their strength was more powerful than they previously thought.
This hadn’t accounted for the senator’s super soldier programme. The super soldiers that they had trained were as strong as a Lower-Level Blood Breed. On the other hand, the Turing Group’s representative had revealed their latest research — high-speed neuro battle suits.
It was a suit that could enhance the human’s nervous system, running at fifty times faster than normal. A normal human would have the same reaction time as a Middle-Level or Lower-Level Blood Breed with this reaction speed. While this speed would harm the joints and muscles of the user, it was quickly resolved under the collective research from everyone.
With the high-speed battle suit, super soldiers and the elites of every fist sects gathered together, even Tu Lan was shocked by this development. They were able to gather an army that had the strength of Lower-Level Blood Breeds in such a short amount of time!
With these people gathered together, the strength that they were able to gather made even Garen rather surprised.
“This is the starting point where the humans will fight back!” a person stood up and shouted pa.s.sionately.
“Today’s meeting will be engraved in history!!” there were people who started to pump their fists up in the air.
Garen had a hunch that the battle with the Blood Breeds would soon arrive after observing this pa.s.sionate bunch.
