645: Chapter 635: Ambitions and the Orphanage 645: Chapter 635: Ambitions and the Orphanage On the balcony of the household from before, Dr.
Feng was holding a small green watering can, watering the plants on the ground.
He carefully adjusted the direction of the water flow until he could see a clear, colorful halo; only then did he reveal a smile.
Suddenly, his hand trembled, causing the water stream, which he had taken such pains to adjust, to deviate, losing its brilliant colors.
“What’s wrong?”
Ais Wakaz, who was lying in bed watching television, asked.
He had already taken off the gray cape and was only wearing a white loincloth.
“Two of the hosts I had arranged were killed…
It’s not yet the ti I set for them to expand outward, so they shouldn’t have attracted the Hunter Association’s attention…
But dead is dead, one or two won’t affect the big picture.”
Out of curiosity, Ais Wakaz asked, “I’m very curious about how many hosts you’ve arranged that make you so confident in succeeding.”
As Dr.
Feng continued watering, he said, “Success would naturally be best, but failure is nothing to worry about.
I’ll learn from my failures, never falling in the sa place twice.
The more I fail, the stronger I’ll beco, until one day I can create a world completely dominated by plants and bring forth the power of the Great Mother.”
Ais Wakaz didn’t continue the conversation, his expression slightly mocking.
If Dr.
Feng were to realize his vision, Ais Wakaz himself would likely beco one of the targets for elimination, after all, he wasn’t a plant.
However, Ais wasn’t the least bit concerned about things getting to that point because, in this world, everything ultimately ca down to strength.
As long as Dr.
Feng remained in the Upper Sequence Realm, nothing he did could change the world.
Ais Wakaz was different; he was sure he could attain his goal.
He was sincere in what he told Dr.
Feng: he just wanted an unrestrained hunting ground, and with invincible strength, anywhere could be an unrestrained hunting ground!
Therefore, Ais Wakaz harbored an ambition to ascend to the pinnacle of the biological hierarchy and step into the Catastrophe Level…
to beco a deity!
…
Tao Qingqing had been in Tongling City for several days already.
In these days, Wen Wen had been busy investigating Dr.
Feng’s affairs, so Tao Qingqing dealt with the accumulated supernatural cases in the city herself.
Ghosts, vampires, lycanthropes, all sorts of peculiar demons were within her purview to handle; these little monsters hiding in the shadows weren’t very powerful but posed a sufficient threat to ordinary humans.
Every day, nearly a thousand people died in Tongling City.
How many of those deaths were natural and how many were the “accomplishnts” of monsters was impossible to count.
In cases involving Upper Sequence Monsters, Tao Qingqing couldn’t intervene, so her main task was to deal with the less powerful small monsters.
She used to enjoy her work, not to ntion redemption or anything of that sort; just being able to move freely was enough to make the monsters confined in the Sanctuary envious.
But now, Tao Qingqing was frustrated, because in the last three days, she had only found one stinky, crippled lycanthrope.
Moreover, this lycanthrope survived on picking through trash and had no record of harming humans; it even donated to orphans, so she didn’t feel right taking her anger out on it.
But aside from that, she hadn’t found anything else.
Finding a hidden monster within a city is not an easy task; monsters that have managed to evade the Hunters Association and survive until now all have so capabilities to speak of.
Yet for her, a Disaster-Level High-Class Vampire, to have such ager results over several days was too unusual.
Was the city too clean, or was her ability too poor?
How was she going to report back to Wen Wen like this?
Could she really tell Wen Wen that she actually spent these days binge-watching soap operas and not working diligently?
Although that was indeed what she had done, having nothing to show for it was ultimately unacceptable.
Just the thought of Wen Wen’s face when she failed her mission made her truly uncomfortable.
So Tao Qingqing once again visited the filthy Lycanthrope’s ho.
As a monster active in this city, it should have information on other monsters, right?
If she couldn’t catch an unlucky monster to report back with, figuring out why there were so few monsters in the city would do as well.
The Lycanthrope lived in a junkyard.
The last ti it saw Tao Qingqing, it was so frightened it wet itself.
Therefore, Tao Qingqing had to block most of her sense of sll before she dared to find it; otherwise, the place was too horrific for her.
Kicking open the broken door, Tao Qingqing found that the la Lycanthrope wasn’t there and shook her head in disappointnt, “Vampires and Lycanthropes are mortal enemies.
It’s normal for it to change its hiding place after being discovered by …”
“No, that’s not right; it didn’t leave voluntarily!”
She used her Blood Energy to move a dirty blanket aside, and a cleaned bloodstain appeared on the ground.
The bloodstain was fresh, left by the Lycanthrope no more than twenty-four hours ago!
After her previous encounter with this Lycanthrope, soone attacked it and took it away!
Tao Qingqing took a deep breath, nearly choked by the pungent odor, “The thing that took it away didn’t leave any distinct sll behind…
however, the scent of the Lycanthrope’s bloodstain is clear.
I can find it!”
If Wen Wen could find a specific target in a city by just a trace of blood scent, then Tao Qingqing, as a genuine vampire, could certainly do the sa, if not better.
Soon, following that faint scent, she arrived at an orphanage in the city.
There are many orphans in the Federation, so there are many orphanages.
But orphanages in the Federation usually don’t have to worry about funding because the Federal Governnt allocates money every month, a sum sufficient for the orphanage’s expenses for the next month.
With no threat of war, the Federation’s social welfare is very generous.
They never skimp on funding institutions such as orphanages and nursing hos.
In the warm sunlight, children of various ages were playing with toys in the courtyard of the orphanage; a middle-aged female teacher in an orange down jacket watched them with a smile.
Seeing this scene made Tao Qingqing smile as well.
She was once an orphan with so fond mories of her ti in an orphanage; luckily being an orphan ant she didn’t attack her own parents first under the control of her bloodlust.
But this lovely scene lasted only a mont before it beca sowhat terrifying in Tao Qingqing’s eyes.
The children were playing within a confined area from beginning to end; they never let go of their toys.
The female teacher maintained that smile without a single superfluous movent!
The scene at the entrance to the orphanage was like a beautiful painting, but everyone in the painting seed soulless!
They were moving chanically under the control of sothing, but fortunately, they still had breath and heartbeat; they were not dead yet.
If they received prompt dical attention, they might still be saved.
