Unfortunately, Blade was the vampires' nemesis. Since becoming a vampire hunter, he had killed hundreds, if not thousands, of vampires.
He had become the most terrifying nightmare in the vampire community.
Even Selene had no way to deal with Blade, because her attacks were completely useless against him!
Soon, under the tacit concerted attack of the two sides, more than half of the vampires were dead.
The remaining dozens of vampires were already terrified.
Gradually, some vampires broke away from the fight and tried to rush out the door to escape.
However, werewolves were guarding both inside and outside the doors, and these vampires were entangled and slaughtered one by one.
Selene struggled to kick away one werewolf and then shot and killed another with several bullets.
The silver bullets in her hand were running low... Just as she was distracted, one werewolf lunged with a claw. Although she instinctively blocked it, she was still knocked back more than ten meters by another werewolf, crashing right in front of Luke.
"Hey Miss Selene, are you alright?"
Can't you see whether I'm alright or not?
Selene rolled her eyes, spat out a mouthful of blood, gritted her teeth, and got back up.
"You guys better leave quickly. There's an emergency escape route on the second floor. These damned werewolves won't necessarily spare you."
Because she had a decent impression of them, Selene—despite being overwhelmed herself—whispered an escape route.
"Wait a moment."
Selene thought Luke had stopped her to say thank you, but the next second:
"We don't have to pay for the drinks today, right?"
"..."
Selene looked around at the wreckage of the Red Rose Bar, remained silent for a long time, and finally said helplessly, "Pay if you want to, or don't pay."
All the vampires here were dead, so what was the use of money? The money couldn't be taken with them!
Furthermore, vampires killed by silver didn't even get a chance to go to hell.
"Wow, it can be like this? Does this count as a localized 'zero-dollar purchase'? I suddenly kind of like it here!"
Yoon Ji-su's eyes lit up. She picked up a glass of fine wine she could never afford before and started chugging it.
In her view, they probably wouldn't make it out alive today, so they might as well drink their fill before dying—it would be a pleasant way to go.
Selene's chest tightened. She forcefully suppressed the urge to take a bite out of the two of them and rushed back into the fight.
On the other side, the werewolves assumed Luke and the others were Selene's accomplices and immediately dispatched several of their pack to kill them.
"Be careful!"
Selene gritted her teeth and charged forward, but with her strength alone, it was obviously difficult to simultaneously deal with several werewolves known for their power.
Two of the werewolves bypassed Selene and rushed toward Luke and the others.
In their werewolf form, their rationality was already minimal, and they wouldn't stop to think about problems. In their subconscious, anyone near a vampire was an enemy.
A drunken Sif raised her sword and shield and stepped in front of Luke.
Luke grabbed her head, pushed her aside, and said, "Let me handle this."
Sif mumbled something, but Luke glared, firing two brilliant golden explosive rays from his eyes. They instantly blasted the two werewolves into ash, killing them beyond any doubt.
Yoon Ji-su and Helen Cho were stunned.
"My goodness, are you Superman!"
Heh~ Luke's move immediately shocked everyone present.
When the two violent explosions rang out, all fighting at the scene stopped simultaneously.
Whether it was the werewolves, the vampires, Blade, or the ordinary people, they all looked over at the same time.
Everyone else was still using cold weapons, or at most pistols, so when someone suddenly started using laser eyes, how could it not attract attention?
The two werewolves currently surrounding Selene exchanged glances, abandoned Selene simultaneously, and rushed toward Luke from different directions.
Luke remained unhurried. He glared at one side—Boom! Then he looked toward the other side—Boom!
Whoever he glared at died.
Even the powerful physique of the werewolves instantly turned to ash!
This time, everyone saw it clearly.
Even Blade cautiously held his sword horizontally in front of him, but this did not give him any sense of security.
Thus, Blade quietly retreated behind a vampire to observe.
"Who are you?"
Perhaps startled by the power Luke displayed, one werewolf finally regained its senses and asked hoarsely.
"Just a passerby watching the show."
Luke raised his oversized wine glass and shook it toward the crowd. "Cheers!"
Gulp, gulp ~
Silence continued at the scene.
No one dared to make a move.
They just watched Luke strangely finish his drink.
"Your... Your Excellency, would you like more to drink?"
A vampire, who was the waiter from before and now only had half an arm left, said tremblingly.
"Yes! Bring it all up for me!" Sif spoke first as soon as she heard the word "drink".
"Yes, yes, I'll bring it right up for you!"
The vampire's face brightened. He called a few other companions and walked toward a dark room.
Originally, there was a werewolf there, but the werewolf, who should have struck a killing blow, hesitated for a moment and then moved aside, allowing the vampires to bring out the alcohol.
"Drink!"
Sif was very strange today; she seemed to be deliberately trying to get herself drunk.
Luke figured Asgardians had good constitutions and could handle drinking more, so he let her continue.
As the old saying goes, a thousand pieces of gold scattered will return again.
Luke wasn't afraid to spend money, because no matter how he spent it, he couldn't spend it all!
Besides, they didn't have to pay now. Wasn't getting it for free great?
Even for rich people, getting things for free felt pretty good!
Thus, a strange scene appeared in the bar.
Everyone was watching Luke and the others drink, as if they could gain some insight from it.
Selene's heart stirred upon seeing this. She slowly moved next to Luke, flipped open a bottle cap with one hand, and ungracefully chugged the contents.
Aristocratic elegance? What was that?
Seeing this, the werewolves and Blade simultaneously felt a jolt in their hearts.
Some werewolves began to retreat slowly. As rough and rude as they were when they arrived, they were just as cautious and careful when leaving.
They dared not make the slightest sound. When bumping into someone, they even offered a strained smile, which terrified the person into rolling their eyes and fainting.
Seeing this, the werewolf carefully caught them and slowly set them down.
Blade was also quietly retreating.
Seeing that Luke did not stop them, both sides accelerated their retreat until they had completely left the bar.
"They've left. Consider this alcohol as payment."
Luke glanced at Selene. From the moment she approached and started drinking, he knew she was taking advantage of his presence to scare the werewolves and Blade, making them unsure of their relationship and forcing them to withdraw first.
Otherwise, relying only on the vampires present, probably none of them would have escaped in the end.
Selene pursed her lips. "Thank you."
"Let's go!"
Luke waved his hand and left with Sif.
Seeing this, Helen Cho and Yoon Ji-su quickly followed and left.
Being stared at by dozens of vampires, they constantly had the illusion that their blood would be sucked dry at any moment.
Selene personally escorted Luke and the others as they left.
Watching Luke and the others' figures gradually disappear into the darkness, Selene's blue pupils were exceptionally bright in the night.
A surviving Reaper stepped forward and inquired.
"Captain, what should we do next..."
"Evacuate immediately. We must avenge today's grievance!"
Selene suppressed her feeling of profound loss and gave the order.
Luke's face flashed in her mind from time to time. After a moment of hesitation, she stopped the Reaper and said, "Have someone investigate those people who just left. Remember, don't let guys like Kraven know. Notify me immediately if you find anything. Don't act without permission, and be friendly."
