Chapter 158 Vampire Crisis
Gotham, shrouded in a gloomy sky, seemed to be filled with a solemn atmosphere.
Like a nimble cat, Patrina, wearing a tight black leather jacket, instantly climbed to the second floor, and her bright eyes looked through the dusty window into the dark corridor.
"Ha ha……"
The faint sound of laughter was instantly caught by Patrina's extremely keen hearing.
Instantly realizing that there were people on this floor, Patrina gently pressed her hand against the window, and with a clear click, the window was slowly pushed open.
Her legs lightly touched the wall. With her extraordinary control over strength, Patrina easily crossed the window sill and sneaked into the base of the Mask Society without making any sound.
This was the place where she had been closely tracking and observing the members of the Mask Society over the past few days. It seemed that these criminals had become increasingly mobile due to the increasingly frequent appearances of vampires, and the places they chose to stay were also extremely secretive and remote.
The dark corridors and messy appliances made it hard to imagine that anyone lived in this abandoned building if it weren't for the sound of their conversation.
"When will this kind of day end?"
The mask was flipped up, revealing the man's face burned by flames, looking hideous and terrifying. He raised the bottle of wine and clinked glasses with the partner in front of him.
"If you ask me, why don't we just leave Gotham? Now those vampires are really wreaking havoc every day. Every day. Do they want us to survive? The most dangerous place is also the safest. Why don't I understand the meaning of this sentence at all?"
"Heh, at least you haven't been caught and drained of blood by them yet? Just tell me whether it's safe or not!"
"Safe? Damn it, I stay here every fucking day and don't do anything bad, how can anything go wrong? If this continues, I'll forget I'm a criminal!"
"Alright, alright, hasn't the boss cooperated with them recently? I believe that soon, we can stand at the top of Gotham again!"
"cut……"
The big man with the brown bear mask on his head was a little resentful. The violent desire in his bones had not been vented for a long time, and now he felt like he was going crazy.
"By the way, can't those vampires transform people into themselves? How about we apply for that, too?"
"..."
Not getting a response, the man in the brown bear mask frowned, shifted his gaze away from the food in front of him, and looked up at the man sitting in front of him. The next moment, his pupils contracted violently, and his right hand instantly grabbed the machete on the ground.
However, it was too late.
Pushing the unconscious thin man aside, Patrina took two steps at a time and at the moment when the brown bear masked man drew out his sword, she delivered a fierce straight punch, hitting his ugly face hard.
boom!
Under the powerful force, the head of the man in the brown bear mask fell backwards instantly and hit the floor heavily. However, he seemed to still have the strength to resist and did not faint immediately.
With a loud shout, the members of the Mask Society hiding in various places throughout the building began to riot one after another.
Looking at the completely unconscious brown bear masked man, Patrina quickly looked outside the room and noticed several figures rushing towards this side.
Her brain was working rapidly, and soon, the door was kicked open and criminals holding submachine guns rushed out, glaring fiercely into the room.
However, apart from the figures of two companions, one fat and one thin, lying together, there was no sign of the invader.
One of the bald men jumped out of the crowd and walked quickly to the open window. Looking at the footprints in front of the window, his eyes subconsciously looked through the window.
Looking at the empty space downstairs, he suddenly thought of something and looked up subconsciously. However, a dark shadow came into his sight, followed by the crisp sound of bones.
The bald man's head drooped. The sudden change made the members of the Mask Society pull the trigger directly. Blood splattered on the windowsill. Looking at the criminal who shot his companion without hesitation, Patrina quickly climbed to the third floor.
After the entire window was broken down until only the wooden frame was left, the criminals cautiously approached the window.
However, the intruder had long since disappeared.
"Fake!"
Angry curses from the Mask Society members were heard from the roof. The gunshots that had just sounded stopped abruptly. Along with the violent running above the floor, the group of criminals realized that the intruder had already run upstairs.
The whole building seemed in chaos. The criminals from the Mask Society were frantically chasing the invaders, but the intruders were knocking down the criminals much faster than their support.
Looking at his companions being defeated one by one, a small leader of the Mask Society directly ordered all the criminals to be gathered together as much as possible.
As the whole building erupted in noise, a 1.9-meter-tall man was knocked unconscious with one punch on the second-to-last floor, without blushing or panting. A slender figure hid at the side of the door, with a trace of solemnity in Patrina's eyes. She heard an extremely unusual movement.
It seemed that there was a steady flow of footsteps coming towards here. The reason why Patrina was instantly alert was because the person coming had no heartbeat.
Patrina has completely mastered the miraculous power of being brought back to life, great strength and extremely sharp speed, even her reaction ability is far beyond that of normal people, in addition to these, her facial features have been greatly enhanced, and she can hear the heartbeats of people nearby, which is not difficult for her now.
The person was approaching this place quickly. If he was a normal person, she would have been able to hear the other person's heartbeat.
pat...
The footsteps stopped outside the door instantly. Patrina narrowed her eyes slightly, holding the dagger she had snatched from the criminal across her chest, while her other hand tightly grasped the pistol.
Click!
A somewhat pale hand grabbed one side of the door and slowly pushed the door open.
Clang!
As the daggers clashed, Patrina looked in shock at the pale-faced man with scarlet eyes in front of her.
Now she finally understood why the visitor had no heartbeat.
vampire!
The force from the dagger made Patrina step back subconsciously, however, the intruder had no intention of letting go of this opportunity. With a loud gunshot, Patrina, who had barely dodged the bullet, quickly jumped behind a fallen wooden table in the room.
Bang bang bang!
Without hesitation, the two men drew their pistols and shot at each other.
The flying wood chips and the loud gunshots instantly attracted the cautious criminals below.
Hearing the messy footsteps outside the room, Patrina, who was hiding behind the wooden table, felt a flash of anxiety in her heart. The appearance of a vampire in the Masked Society made her extremely shocked, and her thoughts were a little confused for a moment.
Before she could think about it, she heard a lot of footsteps outside the door. The criminals seemed to have arrived. Patrina suddenly jumped out from behind the table. The gunshots from both sides stopped almost at the same time. She quickly dodged the man's grabbing hand and kicked the man hard in the chest.
However, the vampire only took two steps back before rushing forward again, and without hesitation, his punch collided heavily with Patrina's hasty response.
boom!
The powerful force instantly caused Patrina's body to hit the window heavily. Along with the sound of glass breaking, the criminals who had just rushed into the room watched Patrina fall out of the window.
She fired quickly, with sporadic bullets brushing past her body. Feeling the blood surging in her body, Patrina grabbed the window eaves on one side just as she was about to fall to the bottom of the building.
He kicked the window hard, breaking it and knocked the criminal who was looking out to the ground.
There was a sound of something heavy falling outside the window. Patrina's heart suddenly rose. A scarlet light appeared in her eyes. She looked at the sky outside the window. At this time, Gotham was covered with dark clouds. This was why the vampire dared to jump out of the window without any disguise.
Roar!
An inhuman roar was heard, and figures jumped down one after another. Patrina looked at the pairs of scarlet pupils staring at her with some fear. At this moment, the terrible expectation in her heart finally came true.
boom!
The thin body slammed heavily into the bookcase beside it. Two fists were no match for four legs. Even though Patrina's reaction speed was faster, she still couldn't withstand the joint attack of three vampires.
These guys seemed to be transformed from elite members of the Mask Society. Each of them possessed excellent fighting skills. After being transformed into vampires, their combat power far exceeded what it used to be.
She jumped back quickly and easily leaped to a height of more than two meters. The moment Patrina landed, she flew to the side.
bang bang bang...
Amid the continuous sound of gunfire, several bullet holes suddenly appeared where she was originally. She quickly pulled out her gun and fired. Patrina did not attack the criminal who shot her, but the three vampires who rushed towards her.
Their bodies staggered instantly, and several bullet holes appeared on the bodies of the three vampires. One of them was hit directly in the head.
Except for the vampire who was shot in the head and fell heavily to the ground, the other two vampires staggered for a moment and then quickly attacked Patrina as if they were not injured.
The dagger in his hand stabbed fiercely at one of the claws that grabbed him. The slender sharp claws just scratched Patrina's neck, and the black leather jacket was instantly torn, revealing the fair and smooth skin underneath.
"Haha, little kitty, how dare you come to trouble us again and again?"
The vampire who succeeded in the attack showed his ferocious fangs, and his scarlet pupils stared viciously at Patrina's shockingly white and slender neck. The crazy bloodthirsty desire in his heart made him want to pin the woman in front of him to the ground, bite her tender neck, and suck her blood dry.
"Does the Blood God allow your current actions?"
While retreating backwards, Patrina shouted in a serious tone, keeping an eye out for hidden gunshots from the side at any time.
