00:00:00My Werewolf System. Chapters 1721 to 1730. Chapter 1721 Attack on the Bird. Part 2.
00:00:11After neutralizing the birdman, Marcus firmly believed he had made his point. He hoped
00:00:17that whoever came after him would have a high enough rank in the hierarchy
00:00:22from the gang enough to have some common sense, someone I could finally talk to
00:00:27properly. He even harbored a faint hope that he would be recognized for his brief appearance in
00:00:33the public event of the howlers. But the underworld gave him no respite. Before he could
00:00:40Before he could even turn around to address the crowd, the mysterious rope tightened around his arm.
00:00:46Because of the tension and the strange resonance of the material, Marcus knew instantly that it was not a
00:00:52Not a standard hemp rope or a leather whip. It was a beastly, high-level weapon. What the hell!
00:01:00Marcus turned his head and found himself looking at a woman in a black and gold uniform,
00:01:05Elegant and close-fitting. He gripped the end of the whip with a force that seemed capable of crushing stones.
00:01:12I thought there were no more fools left on Vernon Ford Street to cause trouble while I was there
00:01:18"On duty," he said, his voice dripping with cold authority. It had been a while since he had personally intervened.
00:01:25The change in the crowd was immediate. All the members of Jaule, and even the customers
00:01:31Regulars who frequented the stalls knew exactly who had arrived: Olivia Pearle.
00:01:38Without another word, Olivia pulled the whip. It was a sudden burst of strength that threw her off balance.
00:01:45He completely overwhelmed Marcus. He knocked him down and sent him skidding across the asphalt like a rag doll.
00:01:51rag. Go to Slogue, he said. They'll be your allies, he said, Marcus thought bitterly as the pavement
00:01:59It faded beneath him. I had a much better time when I met Lupus than with these howler monkeys.
00:02:05But I suppose with everything they've been through lately, they're on high alert.
00:02:10I can't blame them for being cautious, but this is getting ridiculous.
00:02:16Desperate to stop his momentum, Marcus reached out and reached around the base of a heavy lamppost
00:02:22Iron. Channeling his energy into his grip, he managed to anchor himself for a moment. The sudden resistance
00:02:30It surprised Olivia, and the whip tightened like a guitar string. She narrowed her eyes. No
00:02:37He hesitated. His arms began to swell and distort, and hair sprouted from his scalp as he transformed.
00:02:43in his partial werewolf form. He gripped the whip with both hands and gave it a monstrous tug.
00:02:49with both hands. The metal base of the lamppost creaked and began to bend under the force of
00:02:55twisting. Marcus's fingers slipped as the iron gave way, and he was pulled back towards her.
00:03:01"What a terrifying force!" Marcus thought, digging his heels into the path. "But at least I'm..."
00:03:09Rising. Now I have no doubt. She's a werewolf. One of the inner circle.
00:03:15Tired of the rough treatment, Marcus decided to remind her that he wasn't just luggage. He activated his powers of
00:03:22lightning, sending an irregular trail of electricity along the whip. The blue light traveled along the
00:03:29distance in a millisecond, electrocuting Olivia completely. She clenched her teeth, her
00:03:36The transformation expanded as it forced his body to endure the agonizing sting of the
00:03:41high-voltage current. His resistance was astonishing. Despite the pain, he dragged it to
00:03:48which was right beneath her. Before she could recover, she lifted a heavy, fur-covered boot.
00:03:55and slammed it directly onto his chest. The impact was so strong that it broke the concrete beneath his feet.
00:04:02Marcus felt the air leave his lungs, pinned firmly to the ground by a force that
00:04:08It looked like a mountain. I knew I had to end this before any of them did anything.
00:04:14"Permanent." "I really didn't want to fight you." "You're not my enemy," Marcus whispered, gesturing with his hands.
00:04:22sparkling as he prepared to unleash a full-on download. But then, he felt that
00:04:28The whip's suffocating grip loosened slightly. Olivia leaned forward, squinting.
00:04:35His predatory eyes studied her face beneath the grime and sweat. "Wait, aren't you that?"
00:04:42"You dark guild guy?" the leader asked, his voice a mix of aggression and confusion. "What are you doing here? Why?"
00:04:50"You're attacking our men?" "No, he wasn't," Marcus pleaded, breathing a sigh of relief. "I politely asked to see your..."
00:04:58Boss, Garidem. And then the whole situation spiraled out of control. They wouldn't stop attacking me. I just want
00:05:06a meeting. I have something very important to tell you. While Marcus was presenting his case,
00:05:14Crowley landed nearby. He looked a little burned, his feathers ruffled from the electrical shock.
00:05:20He'd thrown it against a shop, but it recovered quickly. "Hey, is what this guy says true?"
00:05:27"Guy?" Olivia asked, looking at Acrawley. "Didn't you recognize him as being from the Dark Guild?"
00:05:33Crowley rubbed the back of his neck, looking embarrassed. He'd mentioned a name like that, but he had no idea what it meant.
00:05:41Who was he? —Maybe I jumped the gun when I saw him take down our men. Olivia closed her eyes and
00:05:48She shook her head, letting out a long sigh. "I'm surrounded by idiots." "Really?" she murmured.
00:05:56I never thought I'd miss that damn blond boy, but now that he's gone, it's like nobody's there anymore.
00:06:02Here I knew how to do a simple security check. He climbed off Marcus's chest and began
00:06:08to cancel his transformation, his arms drawn back into his human form. Seeing that
00:06:15The hostility faded, Marcus stood up and dusted his designer coat.
00:06:20ruined. The fight was finally over. Now that we've established that I'm not your average thug and
00:06:27"So, do you think I could finally talk to Gary?" Marcus asked. "Talking to Gary is impossible."
00:06:34"Right now," Olivia replied, her expression grim. "He's involved with some incredible things."
00:06:41But I'll get you the best. —Continue. Chapter 1722 —Encounter with Marcus
00:06:48After all the trouble, Marcus was finally taken to where he belonged, although he was still
00:06:55He was a little confused by the situation. Everything had happened quickly after the fight, much faster.
00:07:01than he expected, and now he found himself following Olivia without anyone telling him where they were going.
00:07:07He followed Olivia to a vehicle and was now traveling alone with her. The silence inside was awkward.
00:07:14And Marcus soon felt the need to speak. Too many unanswered questions were haunting him.
00:07:21head. "What did you mean earlier when you said I can't see Gary?" Marcus asked. "It's because
00:07:27He was busy, out, or hurt in the fight. Even Marcus had heard that the Howlers had been
00:07:35victors of the clash between the two packs. That had already surprised him, considering the strength
00:07:42of the opponents, but he also knew that no battle like that ended without damage. Someone
00:07:48"I always paid the price." "That's not it," Olivia replied, without taking her eyes off the road. "The situation."
00:07:56It's quite complicated. Everything will become clearer when you meet the others and we talk about everything that needs to be said.
00:08:02Marcus frowned, but didn't press the issue. If there was one thing he'd learned from dealing with powerful groups,
00:08:10The problem was that forcing early responses rarely benefited him. Finally, the vehicle slowed down.
00:08:17He marched as he approached a large gate. Beyond it stood a rather large mansion, whose presence
00:08:24He dominated the surroundings. Marcus leaned slightly forward, looking out the window as the
00:08:31Doors opened. "That's the Howlers' mansion," Marcus asked. "Is it?" replied
00:08:38Olivia. Although the place had already been attacked once, so they knew of a soku, as long as they were
00:08:44Werewolves, it was likely he could track them no matter where they hid. Even so, the mansion
00:08:52It offered something the old meeting places couldn't. Compared to the pool club
00:08:58Compared to the wolves they had used before, the mansion was a much better hideout. It was an exclusive place for
00:09:04the members of the Jaule, and there was another reason why it had become their main base.
00:09:10With so many people needing to meet regularly, the mansion simply
00:09:16It made more sense. It offered space, security, and control. When Marcus got out of the vehicle and looked at the
00:09:24With a large front entrance, a smile formed on his face. "This is more what I expected when I came to..."
00:09:30"Meeting one of the kings," Marcus said, giving Olivia a thumbs-up. "I guess I really..."
00:09:37You took it to the right place. —If you keep that thumbs up and smiling like that, I'll break it —he replied
00:09:44Olivia said dryly, "I still don't know if you're really a friend or an enemy. Part of me hopes you're..."
00:09:51enemy, so we can have a little fight. Marcus gave a nervous smile, which faded away.
00:09:58quickly. Although he was considered one of the kings and worked mainly in the underworld,
00:10:05He didn't exactly consider his group a gang. Even so, he knew he shouldn't underestimate Olivia.
00:10:12especially after everything she had seen. They entered through the main door, passing the imposing
00:10:18entrance and entering the spacious living and dining room. The glass windows at the far end revealed
00:10:25part of the outdoor garden, but Marcus's attention quickly turned to the people who were already
00:10:30He was inside. He recognized most of the party. Sin was there, along with Marie, Austin, and Inu.
00:10:38who constituted the majority of the principal members. However, there were others present.
00:10:44that I didn't expect to see. Listen. Marcus asked. Stopping. Are you here? I thought you were
00:10:53Dead. And Slit. You're here too? I thought you'd definitely be dead. What does that mean?
00:11:01Slit asked, arms crossed as he stared at Marcus. "I'm surprised to see you here."
00:11:08"Too," said another voice, moving away from the refrigerator. Marcus turned his head and saw Galark, the accountant.
00:11:15from the Lupus group, casually holding a drink as if nothing were out of the ordinary. There in the room,
00:11:23Alongside the howler monkeys were key members of the Lupus pack. They were alive and, most importantly,
00:11:30Importantly, they weren't bound by any form. That alone indicated to Marcus that something important had happened
00:11:37What happened while you were gone? I'm going to need an explanation, Marcus said. What exactly happened?
00:11:44Here? Ever since Lupus and his group confirmed that Marcus belonged to the dark guild, there was a certain
00:11:51There was trust between them. At least from Sin's perspective, Marcus was treated as an ally. He was
00:11:58It was evident from the freedom with which everyone spoke in front of him. They began to explain how it had happened
00:12:04They developed the fight between the packs and how both alphas had disappeared during the chaos.
00:12:10Marcus listened attentively, piecing together the story as it unfolded. They continued
00:12:17explaining how both groups had decided that it was best to work together for the time being. Given
00:12:23that now everyone was under the command of the howlers, this was the only way to maintain
00:12:29Trust. Moving forward together, rather than separately, reduced the risk of betrayal.
00:12:36"That story is crazy," Marcus said after hearing it all. "Now I understand why you said no."
00:12:43"I could meet with all three of them." To be honest, the whole thing seemed strange to me from the start. Lupus told me
00:12:50who had decided that he wasn't going to attack the howler monkeys, and then, when I heard that he suddenly
00:12:56He was moving, I knew something was wrong. "It's quite possible it was all a plan to lead them to the
00:13:03"The situation they're in now and make them disappear." "Oh," Marcus continued, getting
00:13:09Seriously, "there's also the possibility that this is related to what's happening to me." The room
00:13:16He remained silent as everyone's attention turned to him. "I have some news I need to hear."
00:13:22"Tell everyone," Marcus said. Chapter 1723 An Investigation. Marcus continued explaining to the
00:13:31He also asked why he was there and what had happened to him. He spoke clearly, but there was tension in his voice.
00:13:37She indicated that she was still processing it. She explained that she was originally headed to meet with Lupus and her
00:13:43group. He was in the middle of an auction when he was attacked, and it wasn't a normal attack. There was no warning or
00:13:50Time to react. Those who attacked him were vampires. They destroyed everything around him.
00:13:57The place fell into ruin so quickly it seemed almost planned. Marcus tried to communicate and find out.
00:14:04What was happening in other places, but it was useless. The calls went unanswered, the contacts
00:14:11They vanished, and silence became their own answer. It seemed as if the dark guild
00:14:17He would have been wiped off the map. Without influence or anywhere to go, Marcus could do nothing. His name wouldn't
00:14:24It mattered, and his resources were exhausted. As he fled, he headed to the only place that
00:14:31He thought he was safe. Move. What Marcus omitted from his story was meeting Ricle. He thought that
00:14:38It would weaken his story as to why he had come, and it wasn't a particularly important detail.
00:14:44Compared to the elimination of the Dark Guild, don't you think this is the perfect time? he commented
00:14:51Inu. So, they have a good relationship with Lupus, right? The fact that they attacked you while Lupus
00:14:58He was fighting against us. Do you think Unzoku and the vampires might be working together? It's possible.
00:15:06Marie replied. But maybe it's not that good. The vampires originally asked Gary to
00:15:12He would fight Lupus, through the altered group, to take care of him. They probably saw that
00:15:19Something like this was going to happen anyway, and they decided to act. She looked around the room. The
00:15:26The most important question is why they felt the need to attack the dark guild. What benefit did they gain?
00:15:32What do the vampires obtain? To weaken our power, Lucen said briefly. Our weapons,
00:15:40Objects and relationships. Everything disappeared just like that. Silence fell as they began to
00:15:47To understand how powerful the vampires likely were. To get rid of an organization like the
00:15:53Dark guild, and to do it so cleanly, wasn't something just anyone could achieve. Isn't this
00:15:59A problem for us too? If they go after the dark guild and Marcus is here, they could come to
00:16:07For us too. I understand that we might be helping someone, but we'll only bring trouble, and Marcus doesn't.
00:16:14He has a lot to offer. Marcus is strong, Galark said. Even without his group's support, he'll be an ally.
00:16:23Solid. This is a normal city and a gang city. We can't control every single person.
00:16:29He comes and goes, and I'm sure the vampires know that too. Austin wanted to say more, but he
00:16:36He stopped. He began to wonder what Gary would do, and someone being chased like that wasn't someone Gary would care about.
00:16:43He would just fire them. Everyone in the room noticed the change. Without Gary, the usual anchor was missing, and even
00:16:51The most confident among them constantly glanced at each other for reassurance. Marcus noticed it too. He didn't
00:16:57They treated him like a guest, they were evaluating him. If he told the truth, they needed him. If not, he might be...
00:17:05A trap is about to spring. At any moment, there's one more thing I need to tell you. Marcus said.
00:17:14On my way here, I came across something I'd never seen before. Marcus explained the details of the
00:17:21The werewolf he had ever met. His unusual strength and power, and his otherworldly appearance. He didn't seem like the only one.
00:17:29not belonging to any pack, and that was what bothered him most. It seems there are a lot of problems, he said.
00:17:36No. There are things we need to resolve. She looked at everyone and spoke carefully. Not right now.
00:17:44We have no idea when or how long it will be until Gary, Kai, and Lupus return, so
00:17:49We must act as best we can in this situation. Exine Comenzo e Signer Rolls. Inu,
00:17:56Austin, Marie, and Slit. You four should investigate this new type of werewolf. Ask around.
00:18:03Look around the city and see if you can find anything. Use your contacts and get in touch with people in other cities to...
00:18:09See if they've heard anything else. Most likely, the werewolf is the work of a soku, and
00:18:15must
00:18:16Be prepared. Then he looked at the others in the room. Lucen, Marcus, Olivia, and I will...
00:18:24Our own investigation. We should go to one of the dark guild's bases. There might be someone there.
00:18:30alive, or a group of you who have survived. Perhaps we can find out why vampires
00:18:37They did what they did. And even though we don't know, Sin added, we need to know if vampires are
00:18:43A threat or not. The groups nodded. It was unusual for them to receive such orders from Sin instead of Gary.
00:18:51But as Sin said, it had been a long time since the three of them disappeared. It was better to pretend.
00:18:58that they weren't coming back anytime soon. I have a question, Olivia said. If we run into a vampire, what
00:19:05What should we do? If we encounter a vampire, try not to get involved and I'll explain the
00:19:11"Situation," Sin replied. "But if they try to take your life, don't just die. Fight for it." Chapter 1724
00:19:22Is this the base? Sin had allowed Marcus to spend the night at the mansion before moving out.
00:19:28As soon as they took him to one of the upstairs rooms and closed the door, shortly after
00:19:34He heard labored breathing. It didn't take long for him to realize that he had already fallen asleep.
00:19:41"Man! How can a guy sleep like that in a house he's never been in before?" Inú said in a loud voice.
00:19:47"It's always a bit difficult when I sleep somewhere new, and it's not like we're friends." "Whenever I sleep somewhere new, it's always a bit of a struggle, and it's not like we're friends."
00:19:54Exactly. We could be attacking him right now if we wanted to. I heard he had a fight with
00:20:01Crowley, Marie added. If what he said is true, he's been fighting nonstop, running away, and then we
00:20:08He fought when he arrived. He must be completely exhausted. There was a pause after that. If there was anything he didn't
00:20:16They couldn't deny it, Marcus was strong. That much was already proven. That's why it was so much better to have him.
00:20:24as an ally rather than an enemy. Even so, that was also part of the problem. Some couldn't help but
00:20:31They thought that having Marcus as an ally would only bring them more enemies than they already had.
00:20:37Problems seemed to follow him, and now those problems were right in the middle of the base
00:20:43of the howlers. "Are you sure we should leave so soon?" Austin asked. "And split up
00:20:50Everyone in two groups while the others remain missing? —And what if a situation arises and not
00:20:56"Do we have enough people to respond?" —"There are more strong people in the Howlers now than we are," he replied.
00:21:03No. —Besides, the three of them have been gone for a while. She looked around the room. —We can't
00:21:11wait for them to return. If we do nothing and act as if they aren't here, our enemies could
00:21:18realize that it's the truth. We have to act as if the three of them are still here. Without continuing with
00:21:25firm tone. I have no doubt that if any of the groups that follow us, Unzoku or the vampires,
00:21:32If I knew those three were missing, I would try something. The fact that they haven't done so yet must be concerning.
00:21:38This means they are still assessing the situation or reinforcing their forces. The next day, the group
00:21:45The woman traveling with Marcus had to wake him up forcefully. He had slept much longer than they expected.
00:21:51so deeply that even knocking on the door hadn't worked at first. When he finally
00:21:58He got up; everything was ready. Marcus was given a set of clean clothes, black and gold.
00:22:05which fit better with the theme of the howlers. Afterwards, they all got into a vehicle and
00:22:12They set off on their journey, following Marcus's directions. He was guiding them to the guild's base.
00:22:18The nearest dark place was near Slogue. Marcus was glad that was the plan. He wanted to know too.
00:22:25The state of the dark guild in other areas. There had to be at least one survivor somewhere. The idea
00:22:33He wasn't convinced that all its members had been annihilated. So that we can work together,
00:22:39He said yes while they continued traveling in the back of the vehicle, we need to know why
00:22:45You think vampires attacked you? I can think of two reasons, Marcus replied. Vampires have
00:22:52secret control over many things, and in a way, the dark guild also represented that.
00:22:59He continued. We had information everywhere, altered and unaltered. We knew that
00:23:07She knew what people were doing, where they were going, and who they were connected to. Vampires seek that kind of influence.
00:23:14Marcus clenched his fist slightly. If another group had that level of control and couldn't work with
00:23:20So it was better to eliminate him. They probably also knew about my connection to Lupus.
00:23:27Marcus continued. Over the years, we supplied Lupus with weapons. We had our own
00:23:34their own reasons for doing so, but the problem was resolved without our intervention, and in fact,
00:23:41Thanks to Gary. Even so, werewolves and vampires have had constant clashes.
00:23:47And with the weapons we gave them, the vampires were killed, and I should already know that Lucen is one of them.
00:23:53They. Lucen barely reacted when the others in the car turned toward him. They were unaware of his infamy.
00:24:00Among the vampires. If they knew, they probably wouldn't have hired him for this mission.
00:24:08Our weapons increased the power of the Lupus pack, Marcus said. Some deaths were caused
00:24:15Because of them. Perhaps the vampires thought we were working closely with Lupus.
00:24:20And they decided it was best to eliminate us. She let out a slow sigh. It could even be a
00:24:27A combination of both reasons. Lupus warned me they would act. I just never thought we would oppose them.
00:24:34so little resistance. Vampires were certainly mysterious, but if I couldn't ignore the logic of
00:24:42Marcus's explanation. Helping him could be dangerous, but if the vampires were planning a confrontation
00:24:48Werewolves anyway, so Marcus might be needed. "We're here," Marcus said.
00:24:56They all got out of the vehicle together. "Are you sure this is the right place?" Olivia asked.
00:25:03Did they have a base here? What they had in front of them was prey. There was no one in sight.
00:25:10And nothing about her suggested she was connected to the dark guild. "It's definitely the place."
00:25:16"That's right," Lusen said as he pulled the bow from behind his back and held it firmly in his hands.
00:25:22hands. "I can smell the blood." Chapter 1725 Protectors of Humans. I knew the dark guild
00:25:31It was a large organization with multiple areas, but having one of its bases inside a dam?
00:25:37Olivia asked, her voice echoing slightly off the enormous concrete walls. She looked down,
00:25:44contemplating the imposing structure with a mixture of disbelief and skepticism. "It's not supposed to
00:25:50"This place is run by the government or something. You're right, it is," Marcus replied.
00:25:57while scanning the perimeter for any sign of movement.
00:26:02"But to control situations effectively, there must be an appearance of normalcy." The guild
00:26:09The dark side is an organization that has endured for hundreds of years. "It's not like the others."
00:26:15kings who flaunt their power openly." He paused, looking at the heavy gates of
00:26:22The steel that was in front of it. What you should be thinking is, how was all that removed so easily?
00:26:28And, more importantly, how did they know about this place in the first place? Everyone was on guard.
00:26:36The air felt heavy, and it wasn't just the humidity from the running water. It was for a simple reason
00:26:43that
00:26:43Lucen had mentioned earlier. They detected a strong stench of blood. Despite the smell of the water from the
00:26:50The river was so dense and humid, there was a pungent, metallic smell of blood floating in the breeze.
00:26:55There was another worrying factor. The fact that they could smell it so clearly meant
00:27:02The source must have been fairly recent. It wasn't old, dried blood; it was fresh blood.
00:27:08There was another reason why he wanted to go to this place instead of the others, Marcus explained.
00:27:14as they approached the entrance. The guild has several bases, and many of them were used
00:27:20primarily as warehouses. He pointed out the facilities. The storage units
00:27:27Those were where we kept the items waiting to be auctioned. Of all the hiding places in
00:27:33Guild, this is the closest one to you. Marcus looked back at the group. I thought that, in exchange for
00:27:41To help me, perhaps it would be good to give some items to your group. Even the regular howlers,
00:27:47If they were equipped with a good team of beasts, they could put up a good fight. Right?
00:27:54That's assuming we plan to go and fight them, he said in a high, cautious voice. We already
00:28:01We've encountered vampires before, and for now we're not in a formal fight with them. I want
00:28:07We'll remind you as we go in. We're here for information and resources, not to start a [illegible].
00:28:13A war we're not prepared for. True. And besides, if the vampires really did attack this
00:28:21"It's very likely they would have taken all the valuables anyway," he commented.
00:28:27Olivia, though her hand remained close to her weapon. At the top of the dam, they reached a gate.
00:28:34Armored. There were security cameras installed on the concrete exterior. Their small red lights
00:28:40They indicated that they were still functioning. As they entered the field of vision, Marcus raised a hand and pointed
00:28:47He looked at the lens with a grimace. Honestly, I wasn't expecting a very special greeting. Since there wasn't one
00:28:54The intercom response and the cameras didn't move to follow them; I was already assuming it.
00:29:00Worse. As he placed his hand on the heavy metal handle, Marcus felt resistance. He didn't expect the
00:29:08card. He pushed hard forward, using his strength to break the internal mechanism. The
00:29:15The lock broke with a loud metallic crack. How strange! Sim asked, looking over the
00:29:22shoulder as the door opened. If the vampires had already come and massacred everyone, why the
00:29:29Was the door still closed? Vampires? They can control people. You said you had them.
00:29:35"Visited, right? I'm sure you've seen it before," Marcus replied curtly. He wasn't in the mood for...
00:29:43speaking while the reality of the situation began to sink in. Who knows if they managed to get a
00:29:49Did the worker lock them in behind them, or did they use someone from inside to help them? They started to
00:29:55descend the interior staircase. As they ventured deeper into the heart of the dam,
00:30:01The smell of blood intensified considerably. It was so thick you could taste it. Finally,
00:30:08Upon reaching the main area, they went out onto a metal balcony that served as a walkway to the second floor.
00:30:15I was looking towards the main control room. Normally, this would be a large and spacious area.
00:30:21delightful, filled with shiny desks and computers, with several consoles set up for
00:30:27to monitor the water flow and the dam's turbines. Instead, the group found themselves contemplating
00:30:34A total massacre. Blood spilled onto the consoles and the floor in wide, dark pools.
00:30:41There were bodies scattered about, many dismembered with terrifying precision. There were clear signs
00:30:48from a violent struggle. Deep claw marks were etched into the metal floor and part
00:30:54Much of the heavy machinery had been reduced to scrap metal. One would think they would at least try
00:31:00"Replace the people here or something," Olivia said, lowering her voice until it became a
00:31:06I whispered as I watched the massacre. What if the dam had some kind of technical problem? And it ended up killing...
00:31:13An entire city? Lucen asked, shaking his head. Vampires have never worried about
00:31:20no one but themselves. I've heard that some consider themselves protectors of the human race. He looked at
00:31:27A fallen worker. But even then, it always seemed to be for his own sense of worth. Never
00:31:35I could imagine a vampire sacrificing their life for a human. Even though they see themselves as such.
00:31:41Destined to protect humans, they do not see their lives as equal. They see themselves as
00:31:47superiors, and us as still inferiors. Marcus bowed in agreement. He gripped the railing
00:31:55He grabbed the balcony with such force that the metal began to creak beneath his grip. His knuckles were white.
00:32:02as he surveyed the loss of his men and the facilities. Come on, Marcus said, straining to
00:32:09Keep your voice steady. Let's go down and see if anyone is still alive and if there's any equipment left.
00:32:15we can get. At the same time, as the group moved deeper into the facilities to
00:32:21While exploring the lower levels, they didn't notice that a black vehicle had stopped.
00:32:26silently outside the dam. The doors opened and a group got out of the car. They were
00:32:33a striking image, with dark sunglasses despite the cloudy sky and heavy robes and
00:32:39Dark ones that fluttered in the wind. They moved with a predatory grace, heading straight for the
00:32:46Main entrance. The man leading the group reached the door and stopped suddenly. He looked at the
00:32:52broken lock, with dilated nostrils upon perceiving the scent of the intruders who had arrived
00:32:58Just before them. Did someone come in? the man said. He lowered his sunglasses, revealing a
00:33:06Eyes that shone with a piercing, unnatural red. A cold smile spread across his face.
00:33:12Face. Chapter 1726 A Clash. The group remained downstairs, in the main console room,
00:33:21They stood amidst the rubble. They were surrounded by shattered screens and the heavy metallic smell.
00:33:27of the massacre. They had not yet explored the entire dam, given the magnitude of the carnage in the
00:33:33The control center had forced them to stop. They didn't even know where to go. Normally,
00:33:40Marcus would be the one to guide them through the labyrinthine corridors of the facility,
00:33:45But ever since he saw the bodies of his people, he had become rather quiet. He stared.
00:33:51He stared at a broken console, his expression unreadable. To the others, it seemed like a
00:33:57It was a little awkward to talk. They knew Marcus needed time to process his feelings. The shock
00:34:04Seeing a base he once commanded turned into a graveyard was not something that could be ignored
00:34:10easily. However, as they waited in the heavy silence, Olivia's eyes turned
00:34:17toward one of the few monitors that hadn't been smashed. "Here," he shouted, his voice cutting across his chest.
00:34:24The gloom. "To the camera, quickly, it looks like something's happening outside." The group huddled around
00:34:32from the flickering screen. The exterior cameras, still operational despite the chaos inside, showed
00:34:39Three large black vehicles arrived at the entrance. Several figures got out, moving with a
00:34:46Grace too fluid for humans. Seeing how the newcomers were dressed, dark robes and
00:34:52Faces, and sunglasses that hid their eyes, an instinctive reaction was unleashed in all of them
00:34:59present. Even without being close enough to smell them, their supernatural senses
00:35:05They were shouting at them. "It's the vampires," Sin said, lowering her voice and becoming serious. This place was attacked.
00:35:14Recently. I found it a little strange that they left it like that after a massacre. They must be
00:35:21returning to clean up the evidence of what happened here. Lucen didn't hesitate. She reached back and
00:35:27He quickly drew the bow from his shoulder, striking the string as he looked towards the second-floor balcony.
00:35:33floor. If they came through the same entrance as the group, I knew exactly where they would exit.
00:35:40"They don't know we're here yet. We have the element of surprise," Lucen said, squinting.
00:35:47as he followed the door. "Even if they outnumber us, we can defeat them if we attack first and
00:35:53"Quickly." Marcus gripped the edge of the console tighter, and his knuckles turned white.
00:36:00I agreed with Lucen. More than anything, I wanted to fight. I needed to vent and tear some people apart.
00:36:08How many vampires seemed like the perfect escape. I wish I had some kind of beastly weapon so that the
00:36:14The slaughter would be more efficient. "No," Sin ordered, his voice heavy with authority. "Remember what I said."
00:36:22before arriving. We are not the lupus pack, whose blood has been divided between its two groups for a long time.
00:36:29"Generations." He looked at Marcus and then at Lucen. "We're not part of the dark guild either. Today
00:36:36We represent the howlers. Although we've had minor problems with vampires in the past,
00:36:43They were due to individual and isolated incidents, not a collective conflict. Without standing upright,
00:36:50His presence expanded. "Right now, my position is that of leader of the howlers. No
00:36:57I can't allow us to attack the vampires without provocation. I won't give them a valid excuse to
00:37:02Declare war and attack our entire pack. It's possible that not everyone wants the same thing, and that we are...
00:37:09"The excuse for one side to do whatever it wants." Upon hearing these words, Olivia realized that
00:37:16Sin had a long-term vision. She wasn't just a go-getter, she was a strategist. Marcus, Sin shouted,
00:37:24Turning to the guild member, he said, "I need you to hide somewhere. Right now."
00:37:31You should know that your presence causes us more problems than anyone else's. If you come to a
00:37:36A member of the dark guild is with us, the leader they've been pursuing, negotiations are underway
00:37:42"They'll end up like that." Marcus started to protest, but was interrupted. "It shouldn't be a problem as soon as..."
00:37:50to the smell. There are many corpses everywhere that mask your scent, but you need a quiet place.
00:37:57You need to be somewhere where they can't hear your breathing or your heartbeat. I know how you feel about your
00:38:03people, but as a favor for taking you in and protecting you, we need you to do this." The howlers were not the
00:38:11Marcus's people, and he knew it. The dark guild had done virtually nothing to support them in
00:38:18their past troubles. In short, the Howlers owed him nothing. He felt the weight of the debt,
00:38:25And all he could do was comply. After one last, long look at the butcher shop,
00:38:32He quickly left the control room in search of a deep corner to hide in. Now,
00:38:38The three remaining, Sin, Olivia, and Lucen, stared intently at the entrance upstairs.
00:38:44trying not to miss a single move. "I know I said not to intervene,
00:38:50But be prepared for anything. These guys might not be in the mood to talk.
00:38:56"They might even want to get rid of us just to cover their tracks," Sin said. He shuffled his feet,
00:39:03shifting her body weight as she prepared to transform at any moment. Like
00:39:08Lucen was already part of the pack; she could feel a slight surge of power emanating from their presence.
00:39:15Sin as the alpha. Although there were only three of them against a potential dozen, they were strong. At that time
00:39:22They saw the first two people come down the stairs to the balcony. "What?"
00:39:28"What's wrong?" one of the vampires asked, stopping abruptly. He glanced toward the control room and saw the three of them.
00:39:35Intruders among the bodies. "There are people here. There are intruders inside the facility. We have
00:39:42"We have to get rid of them," the other one shouted. Immediately, the first vampire attacked. He struck
00:39:50He punched the reinforced glass of the second-floor balcony, shattering it into a thousand pieces. He didn't use
00:39:56the stairs. He jumped through the broken frame. His ally also jumped forward, and both
00:40:03They waved their arms in the air. Two arcs of red energy, bloody blows, streaked through the air
00:40:10Lucen was faster. He put the bowstring to his ear and fired two arrows.
00:40:17Invisible, pressurized energy beams. The projectiles impacted the bloody ties, shattering them.
00:40:25in the air as nothing more than harmless red particles. At the same time, Olivia had already unrolled
00:40:32his whip. With a crack that sounded like a gunshot, the tip curled tightly into the
00:40:38He tore into the stomach of one of the vampires as he was still descending. With a powerful jerk, he knocked him down. All
00:40:44His body slammed against the concrete floor with such force that the entire control room seemed
00:40:50trembled. The other vampire landed a few meters from the group, hissing in a crouched position,
00:40:57as a predator. But the impact of Olivia's counterattack and the sound of the glass shattering
00:41:03They had alerted the others. More figures were already running down the stairs. Olivia kept her whip.
00:41:10Tense. His eyes gleamed with a dangerous light as he stared at Sin. Does that mean we'll fight?
00:41:16Olivia asked. Chapter 1727 Let's talk about it. The tension in the room exploded when the rest of
00:41:25The vampires started running down the stairs. Some didn't even bother to go back up.
00:41:31steps, jumping between the irregular remains of the broken glass balcony to land on the
00:41:37main floor with heavy blows. They moved with a predatory hunger, their gaze fixed on the
00:41:43intruders who were in the center of the control room. Even the vampire that Olivia had
00:41:50Knocked to the ground by his whip, he struggled to his feet. He growled, baring his fangs,
00:41:56Although the way he shuddered and clutched his side showed considerable pain. The group
00:42:02One of the howlers stood firm, watching as the circle closed around him. They were
00:42:09ready to transform at any moment, their muscles tense for a bloody fight,
00:42:14Until a new presence entered the room. A more robust man with broad shoulders
00:42:20Wider than the others, he began to descend the stairs at a slow and measured pace. They wouldn't rush.
00:42:27"Either in this situation," he said calmly but with undeniable authority. "In the midst of the..."
00:42:33confrontation, one of the younger vampires, too focused on the enemies in front of him
00:42:39And spurred on by the scent of fresh blood, he couldn't help himself. He hissed and leaped forward with his
00:42:45Claws extended. The man descending the stairs, his dark blond hair falling
00:42:52He hovered over his shoulders, didn't even stop. He simply pointed his finger at the vampire who
00:42:58It jumped. A drop of blood shot from its finger like a bullet. When the drop hit the
00:43:05The vampire in the air not only splashed, but caused a small, violent explosion of
00:43:10Kinetic energy. The force sent the vampire's body flying backward, crashing.
00:43:17against a wall before collapsing to the ground. You act as if we really have to
00:43:23"We shouldn't worry about whether there are intruders or not," the blond man continued, as if he hadn't just beaten up an ally.
00:43:29If ordinary people have encountered this situation, we can always erase the
00:43:36Memory. Not everything has to end with the death of others. The man reached the edge of the broken glass.
00:43:42From the balcony. He looked at the three people present, and with just a simple inhalation he realized a
00:43:49that he was facing. I guess they're not normal people, the man said. He jumped over the railing and landed
00:43:56silently downstairs, watching as all the other vampires had stopped
00:44:02instantly his advance, and the fact that this man had just attacked one of his own without
00:44:07Without thinking twice, he deduced that he had to be the leader of this group. Although it seemed that he
00:44:13A fight was brewing; he saw a narrow path to get out of the situation without spilling a drop.
00:44:19blood and decided to take it. We're howlers, Sin explained firmly. So probably
00:44:26Guess who we are. We were surprised to find the place like this, but what surprised us even more
00:44:33They were attacked as soon as they entered. Do you plan to do anything about it? The man stared at her.
00:44:39He stood there for a moment, examining her with his eyes as if weighing her worth. Finally, he spoke. First,
00:44:47Please allow me to apologize for their rude behavior. It seems I've been assigned some subordinates.
00:44:53They're quite nervous, but it's my fault for not controlling them, the man said. Let's start with the
00:45:00Beginning. My name is Kuntalon, from the fourth family. Kunt bowed his head, but only slightly,
00:45:07A small gesture of respect before raising it again. As I said, it was our mistake. No
00:45:14We intend to fight the howlers. Our king and their leader have met, and the king has
00:45:21The order was very clear. We must not attack their group. I wish to abide by that order. He paused and
00:45:29She narrowed her eyes slightly. But I have to ask you, what exactly are you doing here? What are we doing?
00:45:36"Here?" Sin replied. She knew she had to be firm. If she acted as if they were backing away or putting
00:45:44Excuses would only make them look guilty. I think you've got it backwards. This dam is right at
00:45:51Slough territory side. We were informed that something was happening in our backyard, so we came.
00:45:58to investigate. He stepped forward, pointing at the bodies. The question is, what are they doing here? Are they
00:46:06Are you responsible for this? The fact that you're here right now to clean up, there has to be
00:46:13One reason. No. Kunt couldn't help but smile. He could hear their hearts. Despite being surrounded and outnumbered.
00:46:21In number, the three hearts in front of him beat with a steady, muffled rhythm. They were not afraid.
00:46:29Perhaps it was simply the senseless nature of werewolves. To act this way even when they were outnumbered.
00:46:35He thought. Yes, it was us. Well, technically we're not my team, Kunt replied. We're the team of
00:46:45Cleanup. It seems the initial team made quite a mess, and the guys who were here were stronger than
00:46:51What our explorers believed. They had to leave for an emergency recovery.
00:46:57So they sent us to finish the job. Why did they do this? Sin asked, still trying
00:47:04Focus on the interests of the howler monkeys. Why have they attacked people so close to home?
00:47:10territory? Are they planning to attack us now? No, it seems you don't know, but these are not ordinary citizens.
00:47:19This was a base run by the dark guild, Kunt explained dismissively. A group that
00:47:26He has been influencing the world from the shadows for far too long. There's no need to explain further.
00:47:32actions, but you should know that we don't only attack ordinary humans. You have nothing to worry about.
00:47:39He gestured to his men to withdraw. We'll let them go now. Let's clear this place and
00:47:46Let's continue on our way. No, Sin replied instantly. The word hung in the air,
00:47:53causing the vampires around him to hiss. This is our territory, he continued firmly,
00:48:01And we will conduct our own investigation. Are you worried about this becoming public?
00:48:07We'll make sure it doesn't happen. As you said, it's not in our best interest to go against you, but we
00:48:15We'll take care of the cleaning here. We have the resources and contacts to do it in Slough.
00:48:21Sin had to stand firm. He was terrified that if the vampires began a professional sweep of the
00:48:27building, they would eventually find Marcus hiding. If a member of the fourth family found a
00:48:34As a member of the dark guild under his protection, this peaceful conversation would end immediately.
00:48:40Kuhn stared at her for a long time. The silence in the room became stifling. Then,
00:48:47He let out a short laugh. "The dead can't talk," Kuhn said, turning away and clicking his finger.
00:48:55He gestured with his fingers so the rest of the team would follow him to the stairs. So I doubt they'll find anything.
00:49:01Useful. We have nothing to hide. If they want to scrub the floors and get rid of the bodies.
00:49:08Go ahead. We're leaving. Kuhn stepped onto the first step. Then he stopped and turned his head back a moment.
00:49:15Last time. Oh, and one more thing. Kuhn said with a twinkle in his eye. I hope they find their
00:49:23leader
00:49:23Safe and sound. It would be a shame if the howlers lost their minds so soon. Chapter 1728
00:49:31Beastly Crystals. The group remained in a tense and heavy silence, watching the signal of the
00:49:38monitor. They waited for the vampires to leave the premises, emerging one by one with a grace
00:49:45Terrifying and synchronized. No one spoke until the last of the black vehicles drove away from the
00:49:51The dam, its headlights disappearing into the distance. Without letting out a long, deep sigh of
00:49:58Relief. It wasn't that she feared for her life in a direct confrontation. She trusted her own
00:50:03strength and in that of his team, but he was terrified of the consequences. A conflict between the howlers and
00:50:10The vampire families wouldn't just be a skirmish. It would be a war that could raze cities. It was
00:50:17a path they weren't yet ready to travel. "Hey, Marcus!" Olivia shouted, and her voice
00:50:24It echoed through the hollowed-out concrete corridors. They're gone now. You can crawl out of there now.
00:50:31little hole where you've been hiding. While Olivia kept screaming to make sure
00:50:37Knowing that Marcus could hear her from wherever she had taken refuge, Lucen approached Sin.
00:50:43His expression was grim, his gaze fixed on the blank screen. Did you hear what that man said?
00:50:50"In the end?" Lucen asked in a low voice. "Of course," Sin replied, frowning. "Although we have..."
00:50:58Having done everything possible to keep it a secret, it's clear that they already know Gary has disappeared.
00:51:04My real question is, if they know that the leader of the howlers has disappeared,
00:51:10Why haven't they acted against us yet? He looked at Lucen, searching his eyes. You are the
00:51:17Expert at hating vampires here. Do you have any idea what they do? Lucen wanted to say yes. In her mind,
00:51:26Vampires were opportunistic predators that attacked at the first sign of weakness. If Gary
00:51:32It had disappeared, the howlers were vulnerable, so why waste the opportunity to
00:51:38Dismantle them? The only thing he could think of was a change in high-level policy. Is that possible?
00:51:45That some vampires, particularly the king, don't want a large-scale war right now. But
00:51:52That peace might only last until they learn that the Lupus pack has been absorbed by the
00:51:57Howlers. Once they realize how much we've grown, they might lose patience.
00:52:04Lucen shook her head. Vampires are never easy to read. Who knows what they're thinking?
00:52:10in those ancient heads? At that moment, Marcus returned to the console room with Olivia.
00:52:18He looked a little disheveled, but unharmed. What I want to know is, what was that explosion earlier?
00:52:25Then, Olivia asked, turning to Lucen. Can all vampires do that? Only
00:52:32Snap your fingers and make things explode? No, Lucen replied. If you recall, the man
00:52:40He introduced himself as being from the fourth family. Judging by how others treated him, he's probably a
00:52:46knight, one of their highest-ranking warriors. Each vampire family has a unique set of
00:52:53Inherited powers. I haven't faced them all, so I don't know the full list, but these are some of them.
00:53:00Lineage abilities are what make them so dangerous. Unique powers? I suppose like
00:53:06Marcus's. Sin commented. She had heard from the others that Marcus was able to channel lightning,
00:53:12A feat I could accomplish even if I weren't a lunatic. True. When I fought one of them
00:53:19"Something strange happened to me before, too," Marcus added quietly. "I understand why. If you can..."
00:53:27To avoid it, it's best not to fight the vampires. Marcus tensed his body as he spoke. Each
00:53:33A fiber of his being desired to do the opposite, to pursue them all for what they had done to him.
00:53:38to his people, but he knew that, for now, it was an impossible task. Ads by Bob Future. I have good
00:53:46"News," Marcus said, changing the subject to distract himself from his anger. "It seems that vampires..."
00:53:53They didn't care about the loot, or perhaps they never found the armory hidden deep within the dam. It turned out
00:53:59It's my hiding place, so I know for sure it's intact. Why don't we see what we can bring back? The group
00:54:06He followed Marcus through several service tunnels. Along the way, they encountered more
00:54:12Members of the dark guild had been massacred. It was chilling to see the effectiveness
00:54:18of the attack. Despite the base being a labyrinth of concrete and steel, the vampires had managed
00:54:24find and eliminate them all. Finally, they came to a solid, reinforced steel door which
00:54:31It was necessary to scan your fingerprint to gain access. I guess they didn't smell anyone from the other side.
00:54:36"That's the side, so they didn't even bother trying to force this door," Marcus muttered as he pressed
00:54:43The palm of her hand against the scanner. The locks released with a thud. When
00:54:49The doors opened, the group ventured inside and were genuinely surprised by what
00:54:54He found it. The room wasn't just a weapons closet. There were several decorations that looked
00:55:01Simple decorations, but they emitted a faint, magical hum. There were also paintings of considerable appearance.
00:55:07and rare jewels that seemed sellable for very little money on the black market. Then there was what
00:55:13They were really looking for beast equipment. However, the quantity was limited. As they collected the
00:55:21Different pieces, it became clear that the equipment in this room was no better than what they already had.
00:55:27Compared to the high-level bow that Lucen carried, most were fairly standard.
00:55:33"It's still a great find," Sin said, inspecting a set of breast plates.
00:55:39Reinforced. Our regular members can use them. It will be much more effective as a team.
00:55:46tamper-proof than the standard tactical gear they have now. It's a shame about these crystals.
00:55:52Olivia commented, pointing to a box in the corner. There are so many, and they seem to be high-end.
00:56:00They're definitely not like the remains we got from that level 4 city.
00:56:06The howlers secretly partnered with a level 4 city that supplied them with crystals
00:56:11of a beast. Gary had been forcing the newest werewolves to consume those crystals.
00:56:17to rapidly increase their strength, trying to get them to a level that would allow them to match
00:56:22the power of the veteran Lupus Group. Of course, things like this would have been perfect to give to the
00:56:30NIRV. Sin said with a sigh. They could have turned them into high-quality altered solutions,
00:56:37But since the facilities have practically halted production, we're stuck.
00:56:43Beast crystals also have another use, Marcus added. They can be forged into incredible equipment.
00:56:51Beast weapons and armor that far surpass this basic material. The problem is that almost nobody
00:56:57They know the secret of how to forge them. And even if they did, I doubt they'd be good enough.
00:57:04skilled at handling high-level crystals like these. But we should take everything we
00:57:10We can. Just in case. Chapter 1729
00:57:15An intruder. The howlers were, of course, a man everyone knew, one who inspired fear.
00:57:23wherever it was spoken. They were a pack with a reputation that preceded them, and few were the
00:57:29foolish enough to challenge them directly. The problem was that the place in the
00:57:35The city they were currently in was not known to be occupied by the howlers.
00:57:41At least, not that they knew. That's why they could only assume that the person in front of them was lost.
00:57:49Someone alone. Someone without support. And that assumption would be their downfall. They had just said they thought
00:57:57"Kill me?" Midback asked, a wide smile on his face as his feet began to transform.
00:58:04Its bones moved, forming claws as its fingers lengthened and sank into the surface.
00:58:10With a powerful leap, Midback jumped from the large tree he was in. His foot struck the trunk as
00:58:21It lunged forward, and the force was so immense that the tree itself was pushed back.
00:58:27The enormous trunk crashed into part of the apartment building behind it, the same
00:58:33which it had just protected. The concrete cracked and dust flew up as the impact echoed through
00:58:39the entire area. This was the full force of their power now. Before the others could react,
00:58:46Midback had already closed the gap. In an instant, he appeared in front of one of the
00:58:52raptors and punched him in the stomach. There was no way to hold back. Midback unleashed all
00:58:59its strength in a single blow. The body of the raptor's member rose cleanly from the ground, with the
00:59:06His eyes widened in shock as he ran out of air. He flew backward, crashing into a
00:59:12railing before rolling over and falling straight into the river. "Damn it," Midback yelled,
00:59:19clicking her tongue. "How am I supposed to eat that now?" The moment her feet
00:59:26They touched the ground again; the danger came from their side. A huge tail swung toward him, whipping the air.
00:59:34with terrifying speed and striking him in the stomach. The force was so intense that it caused him
00:59:40A barrage of shockwaves hit, but Midback reacted instantly. He grabbed the tail mid-air.
00:59:46movement. The muscles bulged as he further transformed his body, gripping tightly and
00:59:53digging in its claws. Its feet scraped the ground as it brought its momentum to a complete halt.
01:00:00the attack completely. These were, after all, members of a level 2 gang. They weren't
01:00:07They were as strong as kings, but they weren't weak either. Some were dangerously talented.
01:00:14Talented, in their altered forms. It was a shame for them. Midback was stronger than ever. With a
01:00:22With a fist, he swung his tail forcefully, lifting the person he was carrying off the ground. Midback,
01:00:29Using his own weight, he lifted the disturbed individuals into the air before slamming them to the ground.
01:00:36The impact cracked the ground beneath his feet. The concrete shattered upon impact with his body.
01:00:42leaving the raptor's member embedded in the ground, motionless. Seeing this, the rest of the group
01:00:49Raptor didn't hesitate any longer. One by one, they began to transform into their complete altered forms.
01:00:55Their bodies grew larger, their muscles swelled, their scales spread across their skin.
01:01:02Almost all of them were enormous. They had large claws, thick tails, rows of sharp teeth, and a
01:01:10powerful and muscular build. Not all altered forms increased in size, but in the group of
01:01:17The raptors, almost all of them did. They looked like monsters from the past. Like dinosaurs.
01:01:24recognized. As he watched them, Midback pounded his chest with his closed fist while
01:01:30His transformation continued. Fur spread over his body, his muscles thickened, and his bones strengthened.
01:01:37They restructured themselves by transforming completely into werewolves. Their mere presence changed the air that
01:01:43It surrounded him. This is perfect, Midback thought. He wanted to see how much stronger I'd become after consuming
01:01:51to that damned ghost. He jumped into the air. One of the kidnappers opened his mouth wide,
01:01:58preparing to bite him mid-jump. Midback twisted his body and punched him in the head.
01:02:04The impact shattered his teeth instantly. Fragments flew as the distraught man howled.
01:02:11In pain, his body spun uncontrollably before crashing to the ground. Midback landed
01:02:17gently, already turning towards the next target. He was having a great time. Due to the type of
01:02:24Despite their opponents' alteration, they could withstand one or two blows in their fully transformed state.
01:02:30His strength was real. His durability was not insignificant. Still, compared to him,
01:02:38Midback was simply better in every aspect. Strength, speed, control, and experience.
01:02:46Not even close. As the fight dragged on, one by one, the members of the raptor group left
01:02:53to get up. The bodies lay scattered around the area, some moaning, others completely
01:02:59motionless. Midback jumped again, preparing to strike another opponent in midair, when
01:03:06Suddenly, another large tail swung upwards, aiming to knock him straight out of the sky.
01:03:13Before he could connect, a green flash crossed his vision. From the side, a green arm
01:03:20And the sharp blade shot out and cleanly severed the tail. The severed limb fell to the ground with a
01:03:27A dull, wet thud. Midback landed and spun around. Another person had joined the fight. A man from
01:03:34A woman with short brown hair, around thirty years old, landed nearby. One of her arms had
01:03:41completely transformed. It looked like the enormous, sharp appendage of a praying mantis.
01:03:47Sharp. Long. Lidl. It was clear instantly. Another agitated one. Who the hell are you? Rex shouted.
01:03:57transforming even further into a purple, smaller, more compact, dinosaur-like altered.
01:04:03His shoulders bulged, muscular, and his power radiated from his form. I should ask them about it.
01:04:11"You're the ones who aren't from this city," the man replied calmly. "So you'd better..."
01:04:18They let go. Without waiting for a response, the man charged forward. He ran straight toward one of the
01:04:24larger, altered reptiles. When the creature swung its arm at him,
01:04:30He leaped upward, plunging his pointed hand into the tough hide. The blade pierced cleanly. Using
01:04:38The arm, embedded like a lever, climbed up the side of the disturbed man with quick movements and
01:04:44Precise. In seconds, he reached her head. Then he cut. The cut went through her neck, so deep that the
01:04:53Blood gushed out. The distraught man let out a guttural roar before collapsing to the ground.
01:04:59When the man landed beside him, one of the raptors shouted in shock, "Wait!"
01:05:06"I know him. I've seen him on TV." Eyes widened. "That's Chuck, one of the best wrestlers."
01:05:14From the AFC. Chapter 1730 to a different bite. Midwag paid little attention to the new intruder.
01:05:23All she knew was that, at least for now, the man seemed to be on her side. That was enough.
01:05:30Anything beyond that could wait. Right now, Midwag had much more important matters to attend to.
01:05:37to attend to. Her attention was focused on Rex. The two had faced each other, their hands clasped,
01:05:45Their claws digging in, a struggle of strength. Their muscles bulged, their veins popped.
01:05:51They were marking while the ground beneath their feet cracked from the pressure.
01:05:56Rex Grunow tried to force Midwag to retreat. Midwag didn't budge an inch. In the end,
01:06:04The difference between them became clear. With a powerful surge of force,
01:06:10Midwag crushed his opponent's hand, forcing Rex to his knees. A sharp crack was heard.
01:06:17when the bones buckled under pressure. Before Rex could react, Midwag twisted him
01:06:23The arm gripped tightly. With his other clawed hand, Midwag slashed downward. The cut was clean. The arm
01:06:31Rex's arm was severed at the elbow, and blood gushed out as Midwag lifted
01:06:37the limb in the air. For a brief instant, he simply held it there, like a kind of
01:06:44of a twisted trophy. Rex Grunow. Without hesitation, Midwag brandished the amputated arm and slammed it down
01:06:51Right in Rex's face. Once. Twice. Over and over again. He punched him from side to side.
01:06:58Each blow shattered flesh and bone until Rex's face was swollen, bruised, and
01:07:05Unrecognizable. Ugh. Chuck muttered, after finishing off the remaining members of the abductor group. He gazed at the
01:07:13The scene unfolded before him. Imagine being knocked down by your own limb. Literally. There was no turning back.
01:07:21At this point, Rex could no longer move. His body trembled weakly. Life was already fading away.
01:07:28while Midwag showed almost no mercy, finishing him off completely.
01:07:33"Oy!" Midwag shouted, finally turning his head towards Churk.
01:07:38—Nor o tsuri a o itrtelos! —Som you!
01:07:41Before Churk could even ask what he meant by that, his stomach churned.
01:07:47Midwag lowered his head and began to bite Rex's body. His teeth tore through the flesh.
01:07:54Effortlessly. The bones crunched as they were crushed by its jaws, swallowing them whole.
01:08:00They ate whole without hesitation. Blood covered his mouth as he ate, completely indifferent to the fact that
01:08:06Someone was watching him. Chuck almost vomited. He had to clench his jaw tightly to stop himself from throwing up.
01:08:13that his stomach emptied onto the floor. He had heard stories of ferociously agitated people,
01:08:19But this was the first time I had seen someone devour their prey with such ease.
01:08:24in front of him, as if it were the most natural thing in the world. If the man hadn't been carrying the
01:08:30Wearing the black and gold uniform of the Howlers, Churk would have done everything possible to escape.
01:08:35This man reeked of danger. Of something much worse. After finishing off a body,
01:08:42Midwag pressed on without hesitation. He headed towards the next fallen agitator.
01:08:47tearing it apart too, as if he were determined not to waste a single bite.
01:08:53Only when there was nothing left did he stop. Midwag wiped his mouth with the back of his hand and
01:08:59HE
01:09:00He turned to the side. That's when he noticed something that surprised him. Chuck was still standing there.
01:09:07"Didn't you leave?" Midwag asked, his tone flat. Churk swallowed and nodded.
01:09:13"Excuse me." "Let me introduce myself." "I'm Chuck. You're one of the Howlers, right?"
01:09:20"Yes," Midwag replied. Then he paused and looked at his uniform.
01:09:26"How do you know?" As she asked, she realized it was a stupid question.
01:09:32—Rumors were circulating that the Howlers were taking control of Centrefield,
01:09:37Churk explained carefully. We were informed of this by some of the former members of the White Rose.
01:09:42who are still around. I didn't believe it was true. Until I saw what you just did.
01:09:49Her voice remained cautious. After all, no matter how many good things were said about the
01:09:55Howlers, they were still gangsters. And after witnessing Midwag's brutality firsthand,
01:10:02It was hard to imagine they were truly good people. Still, if that meant being able to live
01:10:09a better life. —You're right,— Midwag said. My boss sent me here to make sure no one
01:10:16He thought he could ruin this place. He turned slightly and surveyed the city around them.
01:10:22And they have nothing to worry about. A large contingent will arrive soon. They don't need to get involved.
01:10:29Directly. Just take care of people. Make sure they're okay. With that,
01:10:36Midwag didn't bother waiting for a response. He simply turned around and walked away.
01:10:41He was already looking for any other disaster he could solve in the city. What Midwag didn't know
01:10:47The fact was that Centerfield had quite a few talented AFC wrestlers like Churk,
01:10:53high-ranking fighters who were once at the top of the organization.
01:10:59Since AFC no longer existed and no new altered individuals were being created, it was safer for them to hide. If they wanted
01:11:06For a better life, the best thing was to pretend they had never been altered. They had earned enough money to
01:11:13They lived comfortably, but since they weren't the best of the best, they weren't super rich either. That's why
01:11:20Many stayed in Centerfield. And seeing their homes damaged hurt them.
01:11:25Léon Furecieux. Many wanted to protect her, just like Churk. Relieved that the howlers were
01:11:33There to help, Churk decided to return home. He didn't live near the apartment blocks. His house
01:11:40It was located in a housing development about 800 meters away. By the time he arrived, he was exhausted.
01:11:47He finally overcame it. As he entered, he exhaled deeply. He thought he could finally rest. And once he
01:11:55If I recover, I'll try to meet more howler monkeys. Maybe I can help them with everything they're going through.
01:12:02Chuck muttered to himself. And Centerfield will be safe again. Really? A deep voice said and
01:12:11resonant, as if rising from the depths of the earth. But that's not going to happen. Churchill stayed
01:12:18paralyzed. As soon as he turned around, an enormous hand encircled his neck and slammed him against the
01:12:25wall. The force emanating from it was overwhelming. Far beyond any resistance I could muster.
01:12:31I couldn't breathe. I need an army, the voice continued calmly. And I'm going to need you to
01:12:39Join me, you strongest. Churk didn't even have a chance to transform. Unzoku
01:12:46It leaned forward and bit him directly in the neck. A werewolf's bite could
01:12:52to eliminate an altered state after a while. A second bite would transform them. But a
01:12:58Unzoku's bite. Who knew what that would do?
