Sam stood there with a very complicated look on his face.
Sam: The plan completely failed, and he failed to seduce and capture Alpha. Intellectually, he felt it was a pity, but seeing this innocent baby with his own eyes, the remaining empathy in his heart made him unable to condemn the choice made by Bai Haorui.
Samuel's face was ashen, and the arrest plan that had been prepared for a long time was completely ruined.
Christian had an indignant look on his face and clenched his fists tightly. Gwen quietly let out a long sigh of relief, and most of the guilt in his heart finally dissipated.
Gun smoke still filled the air in the dilapidated room, and broken wood and glass fragments were scattered on the floor.
Dean turned his head and stared at Sam.
Dean's voice was cold and he stared at Sam with sharp eyes: You have known about the existence of Alpha for a long time. The Shapeshifter in the hotel mentioned "father". You heard it, but you didn't say it.
Sam's eyes averted, his lips were tightly closed, and he remained silent without any denial.
Dean sighed in disappointment: You knew it would come looking for the baby. You brought the baby here instead of looking for a safe place. You used him as bait.
Sam raised his eyes and looked at Dean, tired and stubborn: Dean, this is not my idea alone. Catching Alpha is our goal.
Dean felt a chill in his heart.
Samuel stopped interfering in the dispute between the two and walked to the corner of the room alone, avoiding the main line of sight of everyone. He took out his mobile phone and made a call in a low voice. The content of the call fell clearly into the ears of Dean and Bai Haorui.
Samuel called in a low voice with a bit of respect: The target has appeared. Although the capture failed this time, we have locked the traces of its aura. I will continue to track it in the future and deliver it as agreed when the time comes.
After the call ended, Samuel put away the phone and deliberately avoided everyone's gaze.
Bai Haorui frowned slightly, Divine Sense caught the trading atmosphere hidden behind the call.
Bai Haorui's heart: Sure enough, capturing the ancestor monster is not simply killing the people. Samuel is delivering prey to a third-party force. There is a huge conspiracy behind the whole thing.
Bai Haorui looked directly at Samuel and asked: To whom? What kind of existence are you dealing with?
Samuel kept silent and did not answer. He deliberately avoided the question and was unwilling to disclose any information about the transaction partner.
Everyone's eyes fell on the mixed-race baby who was still crying softly.
Samuel still insists on his original plan: the child carries the blood of Shapeshifter. The safest way is to stay in the stronghold and be monitored and guided by hunters to grow up.
Dean is passionate and firmly opposed: repeat it! Don't throw your newborn child into the hunter's Hell and repeat the suffering we have suffered since childhood. This is not the best way out!
Sam frowned tightly and spoke of the objective hidden dangers: But the blood of Alpha flows in his body. Once the power awakens, ordinary people can't resist it at all, which will bring huge dangers.
The scene reached a deadlock, and everyone's eyes turned to Bai Haorui, who was injured all over his body.
Bai Haorui looked down at the crying baby inside, with a solemn look on his face: I have a way. I can lay a deep layer of Soul and Bloodline Seal without erasing his innate bloodline. However, the original power of Shapeshifter can be completely locked. As long as the seal is not forcibly broken by violent external forces, he will grow up completely like an ordinary human child and will not awaken the ability of monsters.
Dean had a glimmer of hope in his eyes: Can it be done?
Bai Haorui nodded slightly.
He walked to a solid wooden table that was intact and flat, and carefully placed the crying baby on the table.
This set of Soul and Bloodline Seal is a compound Daoist technique that combines Bai Haorui's own Lotus Seal origin and the Daoist soul talisman system.
Bai Haorui Stand with your feet steady, calm your mind, and breathe long and evenly.
Both hands began to form a set of complicated serial hand seals, one hand seal after another, and each hand seal corresponded to a restraining rune.
As the handprints changed, the lavender Lotus Seal between the eyebrows slowly lit up, and wisps of light golden original shimmer flowed out from Lotus Seal, extending outwards along his ten fingertips. Continuous golden streaks The runes are like a gurgling stream, layer after layer, circle after circle, slowly covering the baby's body on the table. The runes stick to the child's skin, slowly seeping into the body along the pores and seven orifices, disappearing deep into the soul's bloodline, and no traces can be seen with the naked eye.
The baby's cries slowly subsided, his eyelids drooped, he closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
After the entire set of seals was completed, Bai Haorui's face became paler visibly to the naked eye. The heavy fatigue caused by the massive consumption of his soul weighed on his body. His shoulders slumped slightly, and fine sweat oozed from his forehead.
Samuel still disagrees with the result of this treatment, but Alpha has already escaped with injuries, and the arrest plan is completely ruined. In addition, he has witnessed the real strength of Bai Haorui with his own eyes, so he has no way to forcefully snatch the baby.
Gwen secretly approved of this decision; Christian was unwilling to do so, but did not dare to stop it rashly.
Dean used his secret connections in the hunter circle to contact an ordinary couple with no children, good character, and absolutely no knowledge of the supernatural world.
Everyone took advantage of the dark night to quietly escort the baby to that house, and used hunting methods to erase all clues and traces that could be tracked by monsters and hunters, and erased all relevant records.
Bai Haorui separated out a faint mark of Divine Sense, quietly imprinting it on the baby's soul.
In the future, the status of the seal can be sensed from a distance and maintained remotely in secret, without disturbing the daily life of ordinary families.
Dean held a sleeping baby in his arms and looked out the window at the lights of thousands of houses in an ordinary residential area.
Dean: I hope this child never has to see shotguns or monsters in his life, and can live a peaceful life as an ordinary person.
Bai Haorui solemnly warned Dean and Sam: Alpha has put down his cruel words, and he will definitely come back to look for this child. We must always be prepared to deal with danger.
The sky is almost turning white, and the dawn light is covering the earth little by little.
Dean drove back to his home in the suburbs.
Sam and Bai Haorui were riding in another car and delivered Dean to the door of their home. The car parked on the street and they did not enter the house.
The atmosphere in the small car was a little depressing.
The night outside the car window has not completely faded yet.
Sam looked downcast and looked out the window into the dark night: Maybe... we did something wrong. Letting go of the best opportunity to capture Alpha, we may have to pay a huge price in the future.
Bai Haorui's tone was calm and firm: The price should not be borne by a baby. In the future, when Alpha causes chaos, we will personally fight against it. Never use innocent lives as bargaining chips again. Once hunters start to use weakness as a tool, the boundary between hunters and monsters will be completely blurred.
Dean opened the door and prepared to get out of the car.
Bai Haorui: If anything happens, please contact me immediately.
Dean nodded slightly, turned and walked towards the door of his room. Sam and Bai Haorui started the car and drove away.
The lights in the living room were dimmed, and Lisa sat quietly on the sofa, waiting for Dean to return.
Lisa had a gentle face, and did not have the tense anger of a hunter. Dean, covered in dust and tired from a night of fighting, walked to the edge of the sofa and sat down, taking off the hard shell of the hunter.
Dean's voice is hoarse, and my heart is full of confusion: I thought I could have a normal life. But every time I go out, I realize... I don't seem to belong here. I stay here, always tense, scared, and bring fear to you. I don't want to become my dad.
Lisa looked at Dean tenderly: I never asked you to completely become another person. What I love is you, all of you. Including that hunter.
Dean raised his head, with inner uncertainty in his eyes: What if I have to go back? Go back and hunt.
Lisa nodded lightly, with a clear and calm tone: Then go ahead. Just promise me to come back alive. Ben and I will wait for you here.
Dean stared at Lisa for a long time, and the knot that had been entangled in his heart for a long time was finally healed.
Dean: I don't have to force myself to make an either/or choice. I can be a hunter and run into the darkness; or I can be my home.
Dean leaned on the sofa, and after a thrilling night, a new determination emerged in his heart.
