Chapter 1399: What Heavy Taste
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Daywalker shook his head. “Yes, but these… test subjects are indeed different from ordinary vampires. They indeed don’t smell very strongly of vampires, and they aren’t afraid of silver weapons and garlic essence.”
Luke looked at the helicopter and said, “There are too many reporters out here. Let’s leave first.”
Daywalker had no objections. He hated glaring searchlights far more than an ordinary person.
Luke led them into a sewer not far away.
When they stopped, Daywalker’s nose twitched. “Did those test subjects come out from here?”
Luke hummed in agreement and said, “They came out of the sewers and started killing people everywhere. It’s hard to guard against them.”
Daywalker looked at a side pa.s.sage. “I think they came from there. I want to take a look.”
Thoughts flashed through Luke’s mind. “Let’s go together. I want to know exactly where they came from.”
The battle on the surface was coming to an end; it wouldn’t be a problem if Big Dipper didn’t take part.
Daywalker had an innate gift for tracking vampires, and might be able to find something.
Without saying anything else, they ran quickly.
Watching Daywalker navigate the sewers proficiently, Luke clicked his tongue in wonder. It seemed that this person had also spent a lot of time in the sewers. Vampires didn’t seem to be as elegant and n.o.ble as they claimed to be!
In the front, Daywalker didn’t know what a certain person was saying about him in his heart. He simply ran in a certain direction based on the smell and his intuition.
Less than three minutes later, they ran into an enormous circular cavern where several pa.s.sages intersected, and came face to face with a bunch of test subjects.
Without a word, they unsheathed their blades. Silver blade light flashed in the darkness.
Before the test subjects knew what was going on, they collapsed.
Then, the two of them raised their heads and saw something that looked like a dark red coc.o.o.n floating in the air more than ten meters away. Countless squirming and twisting strings of blood were connected to the test subjects that were on the wall around it.
Daywalker’s expression was heavy. “The descent of the Blood G.o.d?”
Luke was stunned. “There’s a Blood G.o.d here too?”
Daywalker was also stunned. “‘Too’?”
Luke said, “My friend killed two in Sacramento. The first one was very weak, the second one was pretty strong.”
Daywalker: “…Your friend killed Deacon Frost?”
Luke said, “I think that was the name. That was the stronger one.”
Tamping down his surprise, Daywalker looked at the blood coc.o.o.n. “This thing looks a little like a Blood G.o.d, but it doesn’t feel like a vampire.”
Luke said, “We won’t know until we give it a try.”
As he spoke, he took out a few anticoagulant darts and threw them at the blood coc.o.o.n.
The test subjects that were on the wall immediately lunged forward to block the darts.
Seeing that the darts were useless, Daywalker raised his hand and planned to attack as well.
Suddenly, he paused. The darts… hit their mark? What the h.e.l.l?
Just now, as he watched, the darts curved strangely in front of the test subjects that were blocking the way, before they plunged into the blood coc.o.o.n.
Luke smiled. Want to dodge Bullseye’s Elementary Accuracy and Curve Shooting without moving?
The dark red blood coc.o.o.n seemed to be stunned for a moment, before it twitched.
A moment later, dark red blood sprayed out onto the cavern wall.
Luke raised an eyebrow. “It can expel the parts corroded by the anticoagulant.”
Daywalker’s face was inscrutable, but his head hurt. Even the most effective anticoagulant against vampires wasn’t much use. How could he fight?
Even so, he didn’t stop as he threw out all his darts.
The silver darts flew like swallows returning to their nest as they converged on the dark red blood coc.o.o.n.
The blood coc.o.o.n finally wasn’t so careless this time. The hundred or so test subjects connected to the blood strings flew up and firmly covered it like a layer of flesh and blood armor.
Most of Daywalker’s darts were batted away by the test subjects. A small number pierced the bodies, but none could hit the blood coc.o.o.n.
Neither of them was surprised.
However, Daywalker was very straightforward. Pus.h.i.+ng off of his feet, he ran up the wall of the cavern. At the same time, he drew his pistol and fired at the blood coc.o.o.n.
Luke reached behind his back and took out a Smith & Wesson M500 from his inventory.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Five bullets were fired at the same time.
Sensing the threat, the blood coc.o.o.n moved the test subjects to block Luke’s bullets.
Luke was amused. Do you think only my darts can curve?
With a thought, the five bullets suddenly changed directions and flew at the blood coc.o.o.n in an arc.
The blood coc.o.o.n was covered in several layers of the test subjects, and with Daywalker rus.h.i.+ng over, it could only send out a dozen test subjects to stop Daywalker.
Daywalker’s bullets were all blocked by the incoming test subjects, but he wasn’t fl.u.s.tered at all. He even had time to reholster his empty pistol.
He swung the longsword in his hand and sent flying a test subject that had pounced on him. A sardonic smile appeared on his face.
At that moment, Luke’s five bullets. .h.i.t the blood coc.o.o.n one after another.
The first armor-penetrating bullet quickly broke through the s.h.i.+eld of test subjects, and was followed by the second and third highly explosive bullets which exploded and cracked the coc.o.o.n. The last two incendiary bullets pa.s.sed through the flames and shot into the blood coc.o.o.n, instantly burning it from inside.
The test subjects controlled by the blood coc.o.o.n suddenly paused, but Daywalker had already pounced. Holding the longsword with both hands, he slashed at the s.h.i.+eld of test subjects in front of him like a storm.
The blade light instantly cut open a gap to reveal the blood coc.o.o.n. With a dark grin, he pressed a b.u.t.ton on his body and jumped into the blood coc.o.o.n.
Luke put his hand behind his back and put his revolver away.
With Daywalker and the blood coc.o.o.n tangled together, it was inconvenient to use the powerful ammo stored in his inventory.
One mishap and Daywalker might be vaporized along with the blood coc.o.o.n.
Boom!
With a loud bang, the bottom of the blood coc.o.o.n exploded, and a black lump was spat out into the sewer below.
Luke hurriedly retreated to avoid getting anything on him.
Daywalker, who had been sprayed with blood, stood up. He couldn’t help but shake his head and cough out blood.
He had suffered severe injuries after the fight.
Luke activated his ventilation system and took a sniff of the air. He immediately frowned at Daywalker. “Was that a bomb mix?”
Daywalker nodded and raised his head. “Garlic essence, silver powder, and anticoagulant.”
Looking at the three silver cylinders that had disappeared from Daywalker’s chest, Luke was lost for words. “What heavy taste.”
He wasn’t talking about Daywalker, but about the air in the cavern.
The smell of blood, garlic, and sewage was h.e.l.l on his Sharp Nose.
