As the only surviving eyewitness at the scene, Dr. Karen Jason was able to glean some information from the trails of numerous small missiles and the flames of the Vampires' spontaneous combustion.

But most of her attention was focused on the exploding purple light and the Vampires burning to ashes amidst their screams. Undoubtedly, hearing the screams of these Monster brought her great satisfaction as a victim of Vampires.

The glimmer of light was fleeting, giving her no chance to see who was coming to save her. But based on the person's determination in killing Vampires, she already trusted them.

The female PhD student abruptly stood up from her squatting position. This caused her, who had previously volunteered to be bitten by the Blade and was experiencing some significant blood loss, to suddenly feel dizzy.

However, it was still within acceptable limits. Supporting herself against the wall, Karen Jason asked, "How are we going to get out?"

"Relax, and leave everything to me, ma'am," Green Arrow Duck said simply, speaking in a synthesized electronic voice. Then he experienced firsthand what it's like to suddenly be on a roller coaster while a woman screams in your ear.

First of all, the Duck Leopard armor has excellent sound filtering capabilities. When it detects an abnormally loud external volume, it automatically reduces the volume input into the hood. The entire process can be measured in microseconds.

However, the person behind the character has excellent hearing.

Although the Kryptonian doesn't focus on his Super Senses but primarily on the reconnaissance capabilities of his armor, it doesn't mean his ears and eyes are useless. He can still receive what he needs to hear and see.

Having left the underground Evernight Temple, Dr. Karen Jason finally managed to see who had rescued her by the faint moonlight...

The idea of Vampires is actually quite accurate, especially considering that Donald Duck dressed as Robin Hood.

This character, which should have been somewhat cute, is actually a battle-damaged version. With most of the fleece camouflage on its body burned and torn, the metal armor underneath is exposed, adding a touch of gunpowder and ferocity to its cuteness.

The female PhD student, who had been tucking it under her arm, was placed back on the ground and asked incredulously, "What... what are you?"

"I was just called in Reinforcements. Don't ask too many questions, or you'll force me to kill someone to silence them," Green Arrow Duck said rudely. His main concern was that the other party would relentlessly press him for answers to a bunch of questions he didn't want to answer.

As expected, the Green Arrow Duck's attitude silenced the female PhD student, leaving her unable to voice her questions.

Green Arrow Duck pulled out a vial of First Embrace Serum from the medical bay on his back and handed it to him, saying, "You look like you've been bitten. This is a serum that can prevent you from turning into Vampires. You know how to use it, right?"

The female PhD student who received the serum didn't inject it immediately. Many questions were nagging at her mind; not asking was agonizing. But if she asked... what if she was silenced?

Seeing that conflicted expression, Green Arrow Duck ignored it and turned to walk towards the entrance of the Evernight Temple. Watching the show alone outside was one thing, but having someone with him was another. He'd better go underground and pretend to be busy.

Seeing this, Karen Jason quickly asked, "Are you going in again?"

"I'm Reinforcements. You don't think Whistler sent people to rescue you, do you? Find somewhere to hide. You'd better hope that the next ones to come out of the tunnel are me and Blade. Otherwise, you'd better hide in a safe and secluded place."

After saying that, Green Arrow Duck seemed to have wheels on its feet, bent its knees slightly, glided towards the entrance of Evernight Temple, and then jumped in.

Because the Duck Leopard armor has a short detection range, the person behind it only issued the order to kill the Vampires, using homing melee bullets to deal with these dark creatures throughout. It was also a chance to test the weapons.

Do you know why it's shaped like a duck? It's because Duck Butt has a huge capacity, enough to carry plenty of ammunition and fight a small battle all by itself.

If it's like a fighter jet, where you have to return to base to resupply after firing six missiles, then forget about clearing the area. Otherwise, you'll end up like those idiots in high-tech armor fighting in close combat, yelling and screaming with a spear.

Bombing Vampires is now as easy as setting off firecrackers. Although both are Duck Leopard armor series, the Leopard Type's weapon capacity cannot match the Duck Type's clearing effect.

What If...? they encounter humans, they'll have to use the Railgun. Because of the type of ammunition they carry, ordinary Negasonic Teenage Warhead can only be hit with the Railgun; the special Negasonic Teenage Warhead used by Vampires aren't very effective against human targets.

Whether humans live or die is up to fate, as long as they don't get in the way.

They continued downwards, following Blade's trail. The large number of Vampires and humans they had previously scouted out had already been dealt with by Blade. This time, Green Arrow Duck came down to fill in the gaps and clean up any that had been missed.

For over a year, Los Angeles has been in chaos thanks to this group of radical Vampires. The task of taking down one or two hideouts is handled by the Vampires hunters; a certain film studio CEO simply doesn't bother.

But opportunities like this, with such a large gathering, are rare and hard to come by. Green Arrow Duck has no reason to let them go and allow these Vampires to continue causing trouble on the streets of Los Angeles.

However, Green Arrow Duck doesn't have the same strong desire to kill those humans who aid and abet evil.

Anyway, once Blade's side is finished and he leaves, he'll blow up this dilapidated temple. Hopefully, the humans who survived can climb out in time, otherwise they'll be buried alive in this Vampires's holy land.

Look how merciful I am. At least I haven't told those people "you've let the city down" and sent them on their way. I've just hit them in the feet most of the time.

Just as he felt a surge of compassion, as if he were channeling his inner saint, Green Arrow Duck passed by a human who was wildly swinging an empty rifle in all directions. He deliberately avoided the fatal wound and shot the human in the leg.

Who knew the Railgun was too powerful? It not only caused a penetrating wound but also ricocheted. After bouncing several times, the bullet lodged in the back of the child's neck and cerebellum, killing him instantly.

Unfortunately, when fate is against you, even if someone deliberately spares your life, it will eventually be taken away.

This feeling of guilt lasted only about 1.5 nanoseconds before Green Arrow Duck forgot about it, because he had more important things to pay attention to.

The place where Blade and Dickon Thaddeus Ross fought was located on the main altar of the Evernight Temple, just like in the movie.

The difference is that the movie is brightly lit; but in reality, the battle between the half- Vampires and the Blood God takes place in complete darkness.

Despite the Green Arrow Duck's interference with the ritual, cutting off a significant portion of the natural energy infusion, the Daywalker, who was supposed to bleed to death and become a sacrifice, was able to escape early with the help of external forces.

Therefore, strictly speaking, the Blood God created by Dickon Thaddeus Ross should be imperfect and flawed.

However, judging from the fact that there was still ammunition among the weapons left aside, it's possible that, as feared before the battle, Blood God has become immune to Silver Nitrate Bullets and UV Bullets. Therefore, Blade abandoned the firearms.

The only weapon capable of cutting through the Blood God is the acid-etched, silver-plated titanium alloy sword in Blade's hand. However, sword wounds only slightly prolong the Blood God's self-healing speed and do not actually cause damage.

For reasons unknown, Dickon Thaddeus Ross actually acquired a katana and began to clash with the Blade.

No matter how advanced the times and technology become, close-quarters combat, with its raw, visceral feel, remains the most exciting and adrenaline-pumping fighting style.

However, it was clear to anyone that if the fighting continued like this, the ultimate victor would only be Dickon Thaddeus Ross, who would become the Blood God.
