Overlords in the Marvel Universe

"Good morning, Blade Runner, I heard you raided Area No. 13 last night."

In the small garden behind the dry cleaners, a white-haired woman in a woolen sweater was bending over to trim and water the plants in the pots.

Eric Brooks replied calmly, "The third shift now has three vacancies, er... maybe two?"

Her name is Rosa Belinsky. About two years ago, Rosa's husband was bitten and assimilated by a low-level vampire and turned into a bloodthirsty and flesh-eating monster. Eric Brooks arrived in time at the critical moment , rescued Rosa from her maddened husband, and reduced the two vampires to dust.

Since then, Rosa Belinsky, like many victims of the vampire incident, has devoted herself to eradicating these hateful ghouls. She has weaved an amazing intelligence network by relying on the retired old people in the community. And provide it to powerful vampire hunters like Eric Brooks free of charge.

"I brought you a gift, Miss Belinsky." Eric Brooks took out the book he had snatched from the vampire he had killed before from his arms, "The content in this book is very important to me. It's like a toilet paper novel, but I think you should be able to read it."

"You managed to arouse my curiosity, kid."

Rosa Belinsky took the book handed over by Eric Brooks, and she casually opened it and flipped through it. Every page in the book was filled with strangely shaped blood-colored words. The bloody smell of words.

"This is not some toilet paper novel, it is compiled by an ancient text." Rosa Belinsky took out her reading glasses, "Did the vampire holding this book have any experience before going to hell?" What did you say?"

"I didn't pay attention, those monsters basically just open their mouths to scare people." Eric Brooks shrugged helplessly, "But I still have a little impression that the guy said a word before he died, what is it called? 'Adok-on-Walf,' or possibly Waddock? Mendorff?"

"I think the monster said 'Adokon' before it died. In the prophecies of those monsters, 'Adok' means death, and 'Ang' means eternity."

Rosa Belinsky sighed helplessly, "Blade Warrior, you really surprised me. After dealing with those blood-sucking monsters for so many years, you didn't pay much attention to learning their skills. language."

"You know, I like a more simple and rude way of communication." Eric Brooks's sculpted serious face showed no expression, "Swords and silver, guns and garlic, don't care if you send those bastards down!" What a price in hell."

"Your nerves are too tight, Eric."

"This is my mission, my responsibility." Eric Brooks seemed indifferent, "By the way, how is Mr. Caesar's health recently? I see that you have recruited a new receptionist."

"He sprained his wrist some time ago, so I recruited a young man to help." Rosa Belinsky smiled, "After dealing with those vampire monsters for so many years, I am familiar with their language and culture , they can't fool my presbyopia."

"Okay, I'm going to start preparing for the translation. The content recorded in this book should not be as simple as it seems." Rosa Belinsky clapped her hands suddenly, "By the way, there is one more thing."

She took out a note and handed it to Eric Brooks next to her, "A girl named Susan was killed by those blood-sucking monsters the day before yesterday. This is her address. Maybe you can get her Got some useful clues there."

"Thanks, Belinsky." After putting away the note, Eric Brooks turned and left.

Looking at the figure of Eric Brooks gradually going away, Rosa Belinsky suddenly sighed, "Poor child."

"Okay, don't feel guilty anymore, he is him." Putting down the flower fertilizer on his shoulders, Caesar comforted his wife in his arms.

"I know, Caesar." Rosa Belinsky leaned into Caesar's arms and explained, "I just hope he can have a chance to live a normal life."

"If she chases those monsters every night like her, how can she have time to fall in love..." At this time, Rosa Belinsky looked like an old mother who had her heart broken.

Caesar rubbed his chin, "Maybe you can introduce Miss Susan to him, I remember you have her address..."

"Don't be a matchmaker, let me tell you, this matter is super serious." Rosa Belinsky looked thoughtful, "Although I heard that this Miss Susan is really beautiful, just like Halle Barry..."

"Don't forget the mission of the Blade Warrior, Rosa, and also don't forget that he is half human, half..."

"Yes dear, now I just want you to pour the soil into the geranium pots." Rosa Belinsky interrupted her husband, "I have to let more plants absorb the sun." OK."

……

Standing outside the apartment, Susan took a deep breath. What happened that night still made her shudder. She couldn't believe that she escaped from the clutches of the vampire.

And that young man with a long stick, this world is really becoming more and more incomprehensible...

Opening the door of the apartment, the landlord, Mrs. Robben, was pushing a vacuum cleaner to clean the hall. When she saw Susan coming in, Mrs. Robben immediately stopped her work.

"Ah, Susan, the garage guys brought your car back. They parked your car on the corner and let me tell you there's nothing wrong with it."

"Thank you, Mrs. Robben." Susan thanked, and then returned to her room.

Just when she turned around to lock the door, a powerful big hand suddenly covered her mouth from behind, turned her around and leaned against the door gently.

Eric Brooks' calm voice sounded from behind Susan, "Listen, I won't hurt you, I just want to talk to you, can you guarantee that I won't bark after I let go?"

Seeing the strange man suddenly appearing in front of her eyes, Susan nodded almost without thinking.

"Very well, I want to ask you something about the vampires you met..."

……

"...so after that I was in a daze, I think because I was still in a state of shock, I thought about calling the police, but I knew the police wouldn't believe me."

Susan sat on the sofa and described what happened to her that night, "I still don't understand how my car and phone, which were in good condition, were suddenly scrapped..."

"It's all a trick of the vampires using modern technology. They found a quarantine station and attacked passing vehicles. The pulse energy can disrupt the electrical system of the car and jam the communication of the phone."

"What about those creatures? What is it? Why didn't they kill me, and instead attacked those vampires?" Susan instantly transformed into a humanoid version of [-] whys.

"There are many classes in this world, even for vampires." Eric Brooks leaned against the window and said calmly.

"Modern humans are just a shell beneath which hides nocturnal humanoids, vampires, a loose alliance of clans, and a host of outlaws."

"They permeate all levels of society, police, government, industry..."

"But like I mentioned before, there is also a hierarchy among these nocturnal creatures, something that hides deeper in the shadows, and it is said that their existence is older than some clans..."

"Like that handsome guy with a stick?"
