Shixin Group, the top floor of the building.
An old man in a suit and leather suit was lying on a hospital chair with several catheters inserted into his body.
In order to survive, Palmer needs to receive regular medication, dialysis, and rely on various cutting-edge medical methods to survive.
Duncan, the black bodyguard, stood nearby, silently operating the instrument and performing his duties loyally for his benefactor and employer.
However, since yesterday, Duncan has been a little shaken. He suddenly feels that Mr. Palmer has become an extremely strange person, and he has actually brought disaster to the world for his own selfish purposes.
"It's all the fault of that fellow Eichorst, who bewitched Mr. Palmer."
Duncan whispered in his mind while throwing the used syringe into the trash can.
At this time, the elevator door opened.
However, neither of the two people in the room looked.
Because, apart from Palmer himself and his personal bodyguard Duncan, the only person who has the authority to enter the top floor without notification is Aihorst.
Of course, this does not include a monster that can climb stairs with bare hands, wears a mask, and never shows his true face.
He is of medium height, thin build, and wears a suit.
Obviously, the person who came was none other than Eichorst. He quickly walked to the hospital bed, ignored the bodyguard Duncan beside him, and said in a commanding tone: "You must fulfill your promise and clear the way for the Blood Ancestor!"
"Let the FBI take action to hunt down the little policeman named Lu Li and suppress the news. I know that with your power, you can easily do this."
In fact, Duncan had never seen Eichorst so anxious, like a beast driven to the edge of a cliff.
At this time, Palmer pressed the button, the hospital bed slowly rose, and his voice was very weak:
"As soon as the Blood Ancestor gives the order, I will immediately mobilize resources to suppress all public opinion and appease the citizens who know part of the truth."
"But who has the ability to arrest the policeman named Lu Li? What's more, he has an accomplice with a mysterious origin helping him."
Eihorst was speechless. He was the most beloved servant of the Blood Ancestor. Compared with the low-level soul-returning corpses, he had wisdom, rationality, and more outstanding abilities. He could even move instantaneously.
However, when facing Lu Li, there was still no chance of winning, so let alone ordinary people.
After thinking for a moment, Eichorst thought of another ally and couldn't help but ask: "Where's Mr. Zhou? He has a satellite phone. You should be able to contact him..."
"I'm here."
Zhou Tian was sitting on the rooftop, admiring the night view of the city. He heard someone mentioning himself, so he answered casually.
"Sir, the master hopes that someone can take action to deal with the little policeman who is getting in the way."
After saying that, Eichorst forced out a smile and tried his best to express his kindness.
The reason why this happens is because it has no idea what the other party is thinking, let alone why the other party wants to help the Blood Ancestor.
Hoping for white blood?
Or, do you want to become a soul-returning corpse?
The second possibility is slim.
Thinking of this, Aichorst walked to the rooftop and stood side by side with Zhou Tian:
"If you are willing to help, the Blood Ancestor will give you three drops of white blood as a reward."
White blood?
Zhou Tian was stunned.
Frankly speaking, he never expected to get anything in return from the blood ancestor, let alone the role of white blood. All he had done before was just following the principal's arrangements.
However, now that he can get benefits from the Blood Ancestor, Zhou Tian will naturally not refuse. He whispered: "Tell me, there is something you need me to do."
"An hour ago, your old friend forced his way into the headquarters of ABC Broadcasting Company and made part of the truth known to the public..."
Almost subconsciously, Zhou Tian had an ominous premonition in his heart: "Where is the video? Show it to me."
Around two o'clock in the morning.
A black Mercedes-Benz drove out of the underground parking lot of Shixin Group. Looking at the direction, it should be heading to Times Square.
"What are these two guys doing with their manpower? Hunting the soul-returning corpses?"
In the car, Zhou Tian glanced at the navigator and murmured.
Now, light and dark alternate.
The Blood Ancestor side had no idea what Lu Li was planning, so they could only send people to track and investigate, and were in a very passive situation.
No one noticed that a white Volkswagen parked next to the Shixin Group headquarters building.
"Palmer, a familiar last name."
An old sigh came from beside him.
Duke turned his head and found that Abraham had pulled out the Sword of Sadhu and was looking ahead in a trance.
"Old man, do you know that careerist named Palmer?" Lu Li took out his car keys and walked over, "If possible, I hope this guy can return from his lost ways and work with us to reverse the situation."
From the moment the plane landed on the ground, everything was clearly arranged.
It is not difficult to see from this that the power under Mr. Palmer is indeed huge and worth winning over.
Of course, there is a premise: he is still a human being, not a blood-thirsty monster like a returning corpse.
"Absolutely impossible!"
"The Palmer I knew was vile and deceitful, like a viper in his words."
After saying this, the old man shook his head and walked toward the hall with his sword in hand.
Decades ago, when he was a professor of history at a Polish university, he met a wealthy businessman named Palmer. This guy also believed in the existence of a terrible evil in the world, and provided him with a large amount of funds to research and track it. Blood Ancestor.
As time passed, the two became friends and confidants. However, Abraham suddenly discovered one day that everything Palmer did was for his own selfish gain. The so-called financial support was just a cover. His real purpose was to Get in touch with the dark side of the world and gain eternal life from the Blood Ancestor.
Because of this, the two parted ways and never interacted with each other until death.
Unfortunately, fate is always so elusive.
After nearly forty years, the two centenarians met again, going from friends to strangers to enemies.
And Lu Li hoped that this time, they could put aside their differences and unite again.
As for whether it is an inducement or a threat?
It depends on Mr. Palmer's choice.
Anyway, Lu Li had to do it.
at the same time.
On the top floor of the group headquarters building, Eichorst was saying his final farewell to Palmer.
"The human body is too weak. In order to ensure that the plan does not go wrong, the master has specially arranged some bodyguards for you." Without giving the other party a chance to refuse, Eichorst clapped his hands.
The next moment, Duncan heard the sound of extremely fast running on the ceiling. He subconsciously pulled out his pistol, pointed it at the black shadow above his head and pulled the trigger.
boom! Bang bang!
The gunfire triggered the alarm, and four heavily armed security teams immediately rushed to the top floor.
However, Mr. Duncan, Palmer's personal bodyguard, lost his fighting spirit.
He was extremely sure that the three bullets flew towards the target. However, the three thin figures lying on the ceiling forcibly changed their direction in the air, avoided the fatal blow, and landed in front of the hospital bed.
"Humans, put your guns away."
"They are scouts, transformed from children who were born blind. They crawl on all fours and are very fast. They can accurately sense blood and heat sources. They are countless times stronger than those returning corpses on the street."
After saying that, the smile on Eichorst's face froze, because just now, the three scouts fed back a message to it at the same time:
There was an intruder in the building.
