After leaving the house, Henry drove a short distance and parked on another street. Once inside the alley, he used his flight ability to reach the Sheep Cave Valley Laboratory and changed into the all-black Kevlar suit, including the hood.

Asking Continental Hotel for help would be too slow. What If...? the Vampires High Table, given the reputation of Continental Hotel, they wouldn't necessarily provide incorrect information, but there might be delays.

If Jasper Baden were truly in danger, that small time difference could very well be the difference between life and death.

The reason why the suspect was immediately narrowed down to Vampires was, of course, because the other party felt that commercial methods were ineffective.

Escalating the tactics is understandable. So, who's more suitable to be a warning target than a marginalized figure?

So I'll just have to find it myself. Anyway, it's late at night now, which is the domain of those dark creatures, but it's also good for me to take advantage of the chaos.

Black Super now available.

In an instant, we were back in downtown Los Angeles.

Standing on the edge of the building's rooftop, the Black Super used all his Super Senses to begin a targeted search within a ten-kilometer radius.

Because they didn't know Jasper's modus operandi or what types of places he frequented, Black Super could only search meticulously from all angles. He would pay extra attention to locations where there was potential conflict.

The focus remains on areas where Vampires are present. Because their body temperature is much lower than normal, they are like inorganic matter, easily synchronizing with their environment. Therefore, when they see places where these special individuals gather, Black Super will be extra vigilant.

Then he saw a very strange sight: those humanoid creatures with very low body temperatures would suddenly release high heat, and then lose their human form.

Is someone hunting Vampires?

The scene of the Vampires's murder was in the most chaotic South District Los Angeles, an area with the largest concentration of Black and Spain people. The latter are essentially Mexico.

The main reason Black Super noticed the location was because he spotted two familiar faces. One was Jasper Bardem, whom he was looking for, and the other was someone he didn't recognize.

How can someone you don't know be associated with someone you're familiar with? It's because he's a black man with a buzz cut, wearing a black coat and sunglasses even in the middle of the night; and he's also a Vampires Carnage with a sword on his back.

This image reminded Black Super of Blade, the most famous Vampires hunter in United States and one of the well-known superheroes in the Marvel Universe.

Unlike most Vampires hunters who actually hunt these dark creatures as humans, Blade has a very famous name among Vampires: the Daywalker.

He is also a Vampires, but a half -Vampires. This is common knowledge, and it's no secret among Vampires hunters.

This is why Blade usually works alone, because many Vampires hunters consider him a threat and therefore wouldn't cooperate with him.

Henry had specifically sought out this information after learning he had gotten involved with Vampires. However, it hadn't reached the point of war with Vampires, so Henry only gathered information and didn't seek help from Vampires hunters.

To this day, Black Super witnessed Blade Carnage the Vampires.

His actual target, Jasper Baden, lay on the ground. Judging from the blood loss from his neck, he had been bitten by Vampires.

Given the absence of other unfortunate individuals at the scene and the fact that it was a dark alley, it's highly likely that these Vampires were targeting Jasper Baden, rather than him accidentally stumbling into a Vampires nightclub and being bitten as a blood bag.

During this period, Vampires did not dare to act too openly. Their party clubs had strict entry and exit controls, making it virtually impossible for unsuspecting people to accidentally enter.

Those humans who received blood were deliberately seduced and brought into the club by the handsome male and beautiful female Vampires sent out. Therefore, the candidates were obviously handpicked, and they were not people that anyone would actively search for after they went missing.

Therefore, Vampires prefer to eat in relatively private places. Obviously, eating in a dark alley with no restrictions on people is not their habit.

Black Super only appeared from one end of the dark alley after Blade had killed the last Vampires.

However, his arrival was met only with a warm welcome from a silver cone. Unsurprisingly, the silver cone bounced off his chest.

This gear is made of Kevlar, a bulletproof material. If it were pierced by a silver spike thrown by a half- Vampires...

That patent can be taken out of the patent office and thrown in the trash. As for the Krypton skin, let's not talk about it.

After deflecting the silver cone, Black Super made no further moves, which alerted the others. This also caused Blade to stop attacking and instead ask, "Who are you?"

"I'm here on behalf of the man on the ground," said the Black Super, pointing at the fallen Jasper Baden.

"Here's the silver cone at your feet. After he transforms, use it to kill him; nothing will be left behind." With that, Blade turned and bent down among the ashes of the Vampires, feeling for valuables like wallets and watches.

These things, unlike cloth clothes, are not easily burned along with the Vampires's ashes.

"Vampires hunter?"

Faced with the question, Blade couldn't help but turn around and look at the person, retorting, "What If...? you weren't blind, you could cut two holes in your eye sockets to see a little better."

"Blade, the Daywalker?"

Blade, who had finished looting the spoils and was about to leave, froze. His eyes, hidden behind sunglasses, sharply fixed on the man, and he asked once more, "Who are you?"

Black Super still didn't give a direct answer, but instead said, "Do you have a way to save that person? The reward is 100,000."

Seeing that the other party was looting, they must be short of money. They still had a lot of dirty cash on hand that they couldn't easily sell, so Black Super tried asking them.

Sure enough, hearing the number "one hundred thousand" made Blade look at the person in front of him with confusion. "Who is he?"

"The person the client wants. I believe that guy doesn't want a Deadman, or someone who's turned into Vampires."

"He was just bitten, there's a chance he can be treated, but only a chance. But you don't look like you have 100,000," Blade said frankly.

Black Super took out a Continental Hotel Gold Coin from his belt prop bag. He showed it to him briefly before flicking it to Blade.

"Save him first. Whether it works out or not depends on his own fate. Nobody carries 100,000 yuan in cash with them all the time; I have to go get it."

"One Gold Coin, one promise." Blade explained the Continental Hotel's Gold Coin rules while accepting the Gold Coin. He approached Jasper Baden and said, "I can help him, but how are you going to give me the money?"

It seems they want both Gold Coin and money. However, Black Super is also keen to win them over, so he won't fuss over such a small matter. "Save them, I'll find you."

Just as Blade was about to speak, he grabbed Jasper by the waist and lifted him up like a handbag. But Jesper was already gone.

Looking left and right, making sure no one was around, Blade didn't drop the wounded man he was carrying. Instead, he returned to his Dodge Charger.

Next to the muscle car, they shoved the person into the trunk and prepared to return to their secret base.
