Chapter 23 Bloodthirsty Dawn: Ambush
"Did Jarvis get someone?" Elvis asked back.
"Yes, there are fifteen people in total, but in order to avoid unexpected situations, they are going to take a detour." Audrey replied.
Elvis nodded, turned to Edward and said, "Let's continue."
Edward nodded and asked, "How do you feel when you are burned by the sun?"
"Ugh, I feel like a piece of grilled chicken wing." Elvis scratched his head.
"Is there any special feeling? Any feeling will do."
"I remember when the sun burned me, it was like a bolt of lightning struck and set my heart on fire. It was like..."
Elvis had a look of reminiscence on his face: "It's like filling a vacuum room with air."
Edward nodded: "It seems that we need to do an experiment, but we must control the amount of sunburn."
Pointing to a jar not far away, he asked, "What is that?"
Audrey took a look: "That's a wine fermentation tank."
"Wine fermenter?"
Edward's eyes lit up: "Is there a ventilation device on the top of the tank?"
"Yes." Audrey nodded, they were very familiar with this brewery.
"Perhaps we can use it as an experiment, just need to make some changes... Edward thought deeply.
"I'm an expert in transformation, so I can help," Elvis said.
The third young master gave Xiao Yuxin a look, and then said: "Mr. Elvis, if you have enough people, let's go back and have a rest."
Elvis was stunned for a moment, no doubt about it, nodded: "It's okay, I can do it alone."
In the passage, Xiao Yuxin asked in a low voice: "Third Young Master, don't you need to be so direct?"
"The mission won't end so easily. It's more important to enhance your own strength while it's safer here." The third young master replied blankly.
...
In the darkness, a convoy was speeding across the wilderness. In the cab of the front truck, a girl asked the driver next to her worriedly: "Jarvis, how far is the winery?"
The girl was about twenty years old, she was very pretty, and she was the leader of the fifteen people Jarvis went out to find this time. Her name was Alison, and she was a very courageous girl.
"besides--
Jarvis looked out the window: "There are still about two hours to go."
Alison asked: "Have you been doing this for a long time? Finding humans and giving them a stable place to live."
"Stablize?"
Jarvis shook his head: "Since the world was occupied by vampires, stability has become a luxury. There are not many surviving humans. We have been searching. How long have you been fleeing?"
"It's been years since the plague started and it's just gotten worse."
Alison swallowed hard.
While the two were talking, an invisible hunting net had quietly covered them... The tire of the truck in front suddenly burst.
"Damn it!"
Jarvis slammed the steering wheel bitterly to stop the car.
"I'm going to go down and check." Jarvis looked at Alison and said.
"Let's go together."
Alison picked up a crossbow gun and jumped down from the other side. Years of fleeing experience reminded her that danger seemed to be coming.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
The four cars in the convoy turned on all their lights, and the surroundings were bright. People came out of the cars with guns and bows and arrows, and greeted each other vigilantly.
Jarvis turned to the wheel with a blown tire... He saw something like a needle inserted into the tire, his expression changed suddenly, and he shouted: "It's an anesthetic bomb, quickly hide!"
Many fugitives know this kind of tranquilizer bullet, which is a bullet specially designed by vampires to capture humans.
Notorious among humans.
Hearing Jarvis' shout, everyone was looking for a place to hide... But before they could hide, the dense anesthesia bombs had already poured down, and several humans couldn't dodge in time, and were hit by the anesthesia bombs on the spot.
"Go!"
Jarvis dodged a few anesthesia bombs in embarrassment, pulled Alison to hide behind the car, and fired a shot in the direction of the anesthesia bullets.
boom!
A flame lit up in the darkness, and hundreds of shadowy soldiers rushed towards them.
"Damn it!"
Jarvis, Alison and others shot desperately, but they knew... there was no way out now.
puff!
Just as a human being raised his crossbow, he was knocked down by an anesthetic bomb... Soon, the two companions next to him were also shot and fell to the ground, their bodies convulsing violently.
Jarvis rushed out from behind the car and shot at the soldiers... Poof! An anesthetic bullet hit his shoulder, and his body sat down limply..."Damn it!" He raised the gun with difficulty.
puff!
Another anesthesia projectile was fired, and Jarvis finally fell down powerlessly.
Alison hid behind the car and picked up a walkie-talkie from the ground: "Is anyone there? Please answer."
"Is anyone there? Is anyone there?"
In the winery, a woman's distressed call came from an intercom on the table.
Elvis rushed to the desk and picked up the walkie-talkie: "Got it! Who are you?"
"We've been spotted, soldiers everywhere!"
"Where are you?"
"We're...uh!"
The voice stopped abruptly, and Elvis didn't even answer the call.
"No, something happened to Jarvis and the others," Audrey said.
"I'm afraid it's worse!"
Elvis said: "The walkie-talkie is in the hands of a soldier, and we will find out our location soon. Audrey, quickly ask Congressman Turner to come over. We must move."
"Okay, I'll arrange it right away."
Audrey agreed, and immediately went to find Turner. After a brief discussion, the three of them immediately prepared to retreat.
"Edward, let's go, we have to get out of here!" Audrey hurried to Edward's desk and said.
"No, I can't leave now, the sun is about to rise, and I want to finish the experiment at this time." Edward insisted.
"But, the soldiers will arrive soon, it's too dangerous." Audrey said anxiously.
Elvis next to him suddenly said, "Audrey, notify Turner immediately. You and Senator Turner will organize the transfer of the base personnel. Mr. Edward and I will stay here. Also, please inform those Chinese guests and try to keep them here." They, we need their help."
Audrey frowned and tried to persuade, but Elvis pointed to the newly remodeled wine fermenter and said, "You can't find this anywhere else."
"Understood."
Audrey nodded: "I'll notify Mr. Turner and Mr. Third Young Master immediately, but I also want to stay." After she finished speaking, she turned and walked towards the door.
Elvis opened his mouth to stop her, but he didn't know what to think, he shook his head and said to Edward: "We have to step up our preparations."
