The turmoil at the Continental Hotel, well, shouldn’t be called a turmoil. In fact, most people have no idea what happened at the Continental Hotel. Even the news the next day only said that the gas pipeline of the Continental Hotel had safety hazards and was involved in the scandal. The department investigated and sealed it, requiring it to cease operations until the rectification was completed.
No one cared about the people missing from the Continental that night. Everything passed quietly like that. Although the Continental Hotel opened again after a period of time, the signboard was changed, and an old hotel that had existed for more than a hundred years closed.
Of course, this has nothing to do with Kai. Those organizations or individuals who are pursuing Hannibal's traces don't want Kai to be too involved in this matter.
But Kai wasn't idle either.
This matter starts with the blade.
After Hannibal and Blade fought side by side at the Continental Hotel last time, the two left their contact information and agreed to contact each other in a few days.
At night, Hannibal came to Blade's hiding place as promised.
Blade has its own fixed safe house in the New York subway. Although New York is an international metropolis, New York's infrastructure is actually very old. The most obvious example is the New York subway. The New York subway is the largest urban rail transit system in the world and is now in operation. After a hundred years, many facilities have become antiques. The total track length of the subway is 1,370 kilometers, but the length that can be used for practical applications is only 1,070 kilometers, and the length of commercial operation routes is only 394 kilometers.
In short, many sections of these subways have been abandoned, and Blade's secret base is among them.
This place is very difficult to find. If you want to enter from inside the subway, it is absolutely wishful thinking. You can only find the entrance through complicated and extremely smelly sewers.
Perhaps because of this, this secret base has never been discovered.
When Hannibal found Blade, the guy was repairing something on the workbench. Judging from his technique, you can tell that this guy has never done such delicate work before.
Seeing Hannibal's arrival, Blade put down the tool in his hand.
It seemed that this was the first time a guest had visited here. After Dao Feng put down his tools, he didn't know what to do for the first time. After hesitating for a second or two, Dao Feng took out some food and beer from the refrigerator. "Want some?"
Hannibal looked at the expired bread and cheap beer, and his lips twitched. It's not that I dislike it...well, it's just that I dislike it. In his previous life, if someone was a guest at your home and you used this thing to entertain the guests, it would 100% be considered rude.
Fortunately, Hannibal had a rough idea of what kind of person Blade was, so he didn't say anything, but sat down and picked up a bottle of beer and drank.
When Blade saw Hannibal like this, he breathed a sigh of relief. I also sat down and opened a bottle of beer.
The closest person in his life was his adoptive father, Abraham Whistler, and no one else. No friends, no family, nothing in life except killing vampires. Naturally, he had no friends over, so he didn't understand the ways of the world at all.
Neither of them were very articulate people, so the situation suddenly became awkward. Of course, it was mainly because Hannibal was embarrassed, but Blade felt very good about it, and even drank a lot more boldly. As a half-vampire, although he is not afraid of sunlight or silver, he can still only suck blood. He cannot eat human food, but he can drink alcohol. Orthodox vampires can also drink alcohol. It can even be said that they like alcohol very much.
For Daofeng, it is definitely a very rare experience for a friend to drink with him.
"Where is your adoptive father?" Hannibal took two sips of beer and finally couldn't stand the strange atmosphere anymore, so he looked for a topic. He remembered Blade saying that he had an adoptive father who was a vampire hunter.
Blade put down the wine bottle and said with a rare lowness in his voice: "Dead, in the hands of a vampire."
Hannibal twitched the corner of his mouth. Damn it, he had been talking about it all day.
"sorry."
"No, he has no regrets." His adoptive father was a tragic man whose entire family was killed by vampires. If the blade hadn't appeared when he was at his most lost and desperate, he would have committed suicide long ago. It can be said that Blade is his adoptive father's most powerful revenge against vampires. Although it is a bit unfair to say that to Blade, his life was doomed the moment he met his adoptive father. He was trained as some killing machine since childhood, and there was no childhood at all.
But who can say that the relationship between him and his adoptive father is false?
It is really difficult to describe the fate of life.
"By the way, where were you before? I've been in New York for a long time and I still can't find you."
"Europe." Blade's words were always simple. "After Whistler was killed, I kept chasing the murderer. As a result, I found that some vampire big shots gathered together and didn't know what they were doing, so I chased him all the way to Rome in Europe."
"Rome? A vampire came to the territory of the Holy See?" The Holy See in this world is not just a simple religious organization, they also have real exorcism power under their hands. Things like vampires can still be dealt with. Of course, the strength of the Holy See is just that, not worth mentioning. It is not a big force, but it is the Holy See after all, the center of the Christian world. Why are vampires running there if they have nothing to do?
"What is the use of the Holy See? Can it make people live forever? Can it make people rich? Most of the strength of the vampire family lies in their human servants." Blade finally showed his first smile tonight, but this smile contained sarcasm. and contempt.
I don’t know who I’m looking down on.
Maybe both.
Hannibal curled his lips. With the development of technology, human beings... are really becoming more and more depraved. In other words, enjoyment of oneself surpasses other beliefs. Human beings no longer believe in God, nor do they believe in heaven and hell. This is good and bad. If you don't believe in those, you will naturally become enlightened and wise, but you will also become devoid of awe.
Nowadays, many humans still think vampires are extremely handsome and cool. It's just baffling.
"Then what did you find?"
Speaking of this, Dao Feng's expression immediately turned gloomy.
"Very few, those old ghosts are very smart. But I found that they returned to the United States again. So I followed them back. I had a feeling that these scum must be planning something." Dao Feng said coldly.
"Oh?" Hannibal was still willing to believe what the experts said. "Do you have anything to say?"
"I suspect... they are creating a blood god!"
"Blood God? What is that?" As soon as he heard this name, he knew it was not a good thing.
Unexpectedly, Dao Feng became a little embarrassed when he heard this question.
"I've only heard a few words about it. What exactly is the Blood God? I don't know either."
