Chapter 161 The Warehouses of the North Suburbs

Finding Lily's whereabouts didn't seem as difficult as imagined. Or rather, the two werewolves who had "kidnapped" Lily hadn't anticipated that a high-ranking vampire would go to such lengths to rescue a werewolf. They had simply trapped Lily in an old warehouse in the northern suburbs, but hadn't completely isolated the warehouse from the werewolf... husky aura.

Of course, it was also possible that Kasa Eben wasn't capable of doing so. After all, according to Vivian, few werewolves understood advanced magic. Their personalities didn't seem like they would carefully study barrier techniques. The Eben family's black mist talent was already considered one of the few "top magics" among werewolves. They knew how to use their talent to hide themselves in the darkness, but it was difficult for them to create a barrier to hide others.

But now there was a problem facing Hao Ren: the northern suburbs were quite far from here. He had to cross the entire city and a large suburban area to get there. The north and south suburbs were on opposite sides of the city! Vivian's bats could fly over at 120 miles per hour without regard for science, but if he ran over there, the day lilies would be cold. With Lily's idiotic energy... they might already be fighting.

"How about I fly you over there again?" Vivian stretched her muscles, preparing for a weight-bearing flight. "I can use magic to become invisible. Ordinary people won't be able to detect us. But high-altitude, high-speed flight... I'll be fine, but you might be a little uncomfortable."

Hao Ren sighed, "Let's do it this way. It'll be too late if Lily starts fighting with them."

Vivian suddenly spread open a pair of huge bat wings and held out her hand to Hao Ren, "Then let's not delay, let's go now."

"Wait a minute, I'll leave a note for Yizaks." Hao Ren waved his hand at Vivian, ran into the house, took out paper and pen, and left a short note in a few words, explaining the general situation with Lily and where he was going. Only then did he realize that he had not noticed many details: of all the tenants, only Lily had a mobile phone to keep in touch at any time, he also did not have a means to locate the tenants at any time, and he lacked convenient transportation... A whole bunch of problems were exposed this time, but now was not the time to dwell on this. He would definitely have to find that Raven 12345 after this incident was resolved.

After leaving the note, Hao Ren and Vivian went out and headed straight for the northern suburbs, speeding all the way.

High altitude, high speed, cold wind howling, and thin air, so much so that Hao Ren was being held by a beautiful girl like Vivian, but he didn't have the time to enjoy any so-called soft jade fragrance (in fact, he couldn't enjoy it even under other circumstances: Vivian's body temperature was several degrees lower than that of a normal person), He felt a little embarrassed every time he was flown by a girl, so he strained his voice and spoke to Vivian, "I have to try to get new abilities from Raven 12345 as soon as possible, at least I have to learn to fly, you see these few times it's been troublesome..."

If an ordinary person flew at a speed of hundreds of miles per hour at high altitude and opened his mouth to speak, he would probably pass out from hypoxia on the spot, but Hao Ren could still hold on, but he was filled with a belly full of cool wind and high-altitude small ice crystals. After he finished shouting, he immediately felt that the sourness was simply incredible.

Who was Vivian? Of course, she could hear the embarrassment in Hao Ren's tone. She smiled indifferently, "It's very interesting to fly with you. I rarely had this experience before. I've been alone for many years, and now it feels quite fresh to have someone hanging around."

Hao Ren: "..." He always felt that the vampire girl's statement was a little strange, but he thought it was better not to delve into it...

Vivian was very fast, and the two of them crossed the entire city in a short time and arrived in an area as desolate as the southern suburbs.

This was the northern suburbs of the city, and it was an old industrial and trade zone far from the residential area of the northern suburbs. In the past, a large number of factories, warehouses, and logistics companies had gathered here. The location of these units, which were either polluting or noisy, was naturally far away from residential areas. However, in the past two years, with the re-planning of several main roads near the city and the shift in commercial focus, many units that originally operated here have moved to better locations, and the northern suburbs industrial and trade zone has been abandoned. Now, only a few heavily polluting or inconvenient-to-move enterprises are still operating here. Most of them are simple warehouses and factory buildings that have not been completely transferred or have simply been abandoned. It is said that the municipal government is already considering the redevelopment of this old industrial and trade zone, but that will be at least a few years later.

The current northern suburbs industrial and trade zone is just a barren land dotted with old factory buildings.

Vivian and Hao Ren landed on the roof of a two-story color steel building. Vivian removed the rather energy-consuming invisibility spell and pointed to a large facility not far away, "That's the direction. My bats are hanging under the eaves, and the aura of the big dog is coming from inside. But there are a lot of black mists circling around the warehouse, blocking all the entrances and exits. The bats can't fly in. The werewolves of the Eben family... tsk, as troublesome as they were back then."

Hao Ren stretched his neck and watched for a while, "It looks like they haven't started fighting yet."

"Do you have any plans?" Vivian turned her head and glanced at Hao Ren, "Do you want to start fighting directly, or what?"

Hao Ren showed a somewhat embarrassed expression. To be honest, he had also considered the issue of starting a fight directly, but the current situation seemed a bit complicated: those two genuine werewolves were not exactly kidnapped, they actually found Lily with the intention of finding a compatriot. Although he didn't know what concerns they had, they didn't directly explain the situation to Lily, but at least from the motive, the two werewolves had no intention of hurting anyone.

But Hao Ren wasn't naive enough to think that he could have friendly consultations with the other party and then take Lily home. The real werewolves in this world were definitely not the weird personality like Lily. Just like in many stories, the genuine werewolves were irritable and difficult to get along with. If he showed up like this... there was a high probability that he would really need to fight.

Hao Ren recalled his experience fighting those giant wolves in the Dream Plane, trying to concentrate his mind and enter a state of combat in advance as described in the novels, and then nodded towards the warehouse, "Do you know where Lily is approximately?"

"There's a general direction," Vivian pointed to the west side of the warehouse, "There's a row of windows covered in black mist there. It should be the office duty room or something, and Lily is in one of them."

"Can you lure those two werewolves away first, and then we'll rush in together and snatch Lily out?" Hao Ren thought of a countermeasure. "Even if we have to fight after the three of us get together, we won't have any worries."

Vivian nodded, closed her eyes and muttered a spell that sounded very awkward. A faint red mist appeared out of thin air from all directions and quickly gathered into a vague figure, which was Vivian's image.

The blood mist formed clone condensed into a near-solid form at a speed visible to the naked eye, and a group of small bats also appeared from behind it, flying up and down around the flying figure. Vivian pointed towards the main entrance of the warehouse, and the clone wrapped in a large group of bats rushed straight over.

The blood mist clone did not hide its aura at all, so Hao Ren saw a large cloud of black smoke surge from the main entrance of the warehouse as soon as it flew halfway. The werewolves inside were indeed alarmed.

"Go!" Vivian pulled Hao Ren's arm, and the two of them jumped off the roof like arrows and plunged straight towards the row of windows on the west side of the warehouse.

This area was full of abandoned factory buildings or piles of construction waste, so there was no need to worry about anyone seeing what was happening here. Therefore, Vivian didn't even put away her bat wings, and flew close to the ground in a gliding manner, arriving at the side of the warehouse in an instant. Although Hao Ren could only run along on the ground, he could barely keep up by exerting all his strength.

The two of them arrived safely at the foot of the west wall of the warehouse. Almost at the same time, they heard a roar almost like a wild beast coming from the direction of the main entrance of the warehouse. Obviously, Vivian's clone had already engaged the werewolves.

"My blood mist can corrode glass and ceramics completely," Vivian showed a sinister smile on her face. "So many werewolves have fallen on this in the past that it's impossible to count them all. I hope the Eben family sent two guys with brains this time."

Hao Ren looked up at the row of windows above. Judging from the height, the warehouse should be divided into two floors. The duty room or office where Lily was located was on the second floor of the warehouse. As Vivian said, each window was surrounded by a cloud of black smoke that seemed to have a life of its own, looking disgusting and eerie.

Hao Ren touched his pocket, and a voice immediately sounded in his mind: "This machine warns you, if you dare to throw this machine out..."

"What are you talking about throwing you out for?" Hao Ren was speechless at the data terminal, which was already a little neurotic. "I'm looking for my mobile phone to call Lily and see if she can try to force her way out..."

Before Hao Ren could finish speaking, a violent shout suddenly came from not far away: "Bastards! It really is you blood-sucking bugs!"
