Half an hour later, an armored vehicle with "The Life of Theseus" painted on it parked outside the factory. The representative that Leon had seen before got out of the vehicle, accompanied by several security team members dressed similarly to Hyde and others.
.
"Consultant Li, you are really amazing." The representative smiled, "You actually captured that monster alive. I bet that without you, the mission would never have gone so smoothly."
"Excellent." Although he said this, Leon felt that if he hadn't been there, Anna might have used the sympathy of other team members who were affected by mind control to interfere with misjudgment and let Anna go.
But this represents a huge change in attitude. Is it necessary to be so flattering?
"By the way." The representative hurriedly continued, "Ms. Ellos is waiting for you in the car. She wants to meet you."
Leon was confused, he had never heard of this name before: "Who is Ms. Ellos?"
"He is the executive director of the Caspas branch of 'Theseus Life'."
Oh, district manager, right?
It is understandable why the representative's attitude is so strange. After all, he was the one who found Leon, and if Ms. Ellos wants to see Leon, this representative will inevitably be involved. If the representative embezzles money or something, or something else
If you say bad things, the future of this representative will be worrying.
After giving the representative a meaningful glance, Leon entered another armored vehicle under the leadership of the security team.
"Theseus Life" sent a total of two armored vehicles. One seemed to be used to escort Anna, and the other was a luxury model to escort senior personnel. As soon as the door was opened, a row of sofas appeared.
A middle-aged woman wearing a high-end dress sat on one side of the sofa.
"Hello, Mr. Li, I have heard about you." Ellos pointed to the seat next to him, "Please sit down."
Leon got in the car and sat on the sofa, slightly separated from Ellos: "Hello, Ms. Ellos, I wonder what you want to see me for?"
"This factory is quite far from the city. It's raining continuously and the road is difficult. My people will be responsible for sending you back."
"It should be more than just these things, right?" Liang questioned, "If you send me back, you don't need to show up personally. The representative can complete the task."
Ellos chuckled lightly: "You are right. In addition to sending you back, I also have some things I want to talk to you about."
Ellos did not continue and looked at the security team at the door. The security team pulled the car door shut. After a while, the armored vehicle started to start first, without waiting for the other one.
"Before getting to the point, do you have anything to ask?" Ellos smiled.
Leon thought for a while: "What is going on with that girl, Anna?"
Ellos smiled even more, as if Liang's question was completely expected by her: "Sorry, Mr. Li, I think it's not accurate to call that monster 'girl'. Her actual age is probably older than you and me."
Much bigger.”
"She's a vampire?"
"It can't be considered a real vampire." Ellos said, "Have you ever heard of the concept of 'half-vampire'?"
"Half-vampire?" Leon thought, "The offspring of a human and a vampire?"
Vampires can be said to be "resurrected corpses" because they will die first and then be resurrected in a ritual called "first embrace"; they can also achieve immortality and immortality. However, in occultism, vampires are not considered
Become undead.
The reason is very simple. Although they have died once, vampires are still "living people" rather than "dead people". Except for the fact that they must ingest blood and are afraid of sunlight and sacred objects, they are no different from normal people in many aspects.
This "no difference" even includes breeding offspring with normal people.
The offspring of ordinary people and vampires are called "half-vampires". They have some vampire abilities and a long lifespan, but they are not as good as real vampires. If Anna is a half-vampire, it makes sense why her abilities are relatively similar.
Real vampires are quite weak.
"You said she is older than you and me combined?" Leon noticed this, "Isn't that impossible? Although half-vampires are immortal, they are not immortal. They will still grow and age with age, but Anna
…Looks like he’s only about ten years old.”
Ellos looks to be in his thirties or forties, and Leon is about 20 years old. The two of them combined are already sixty years old. No matter how long a half-vampire lives, he should not have the appearance of only ten years old when he is over sixty years old.
"Anna is a half-vampire we captured by Lake Myrtle. She may have deceived you by using her identity as a 'little girl kidnapped by the company.' But in fact, when the company found her, she was living alone in a building by the lake.
There are many human bones buried inside and outside the wooden house, including residents of nearby towns and travelers passing by."
"After capturing her, we noticed that her age and appearance did not match that of a half-vampire. After interrogating her, Anna revealed some information - her immortality, which is similar to that of a real vampire, comes from Lake Myrtle."
"Myrt Lake?"
"Mr. Li, please look at the color of the lake through the window and the rain curtain."
Liang turned his head and looked out the window. The continuous rain outside the window blurred his vision, but he could vaguely see that the lake in the distance seemed to reveal a strange red color.
