Chapter 837 Knock.Knock.May We Come In?

Alex was shocked. What kind of power was this? It was no wonder that they were able to become so powerful in such a short amount of time.

While everyone was risking their lives hunting down beasts to improve themselves, these guys were simply kidnapping the weak and the helpless and becoming stronger by sucking their blood.

Alex was getting pissed off just thinking about this. "This is ridiculous! Completely unfair!" She stomped on the ground.

"Ummm… Miss Alex… Sorry, but I think there is something else. A catch." Shin Shoo interrupted her.

He was a level-headed person, so he was able to notice this before others. "Is there a limit to the stats they can gain through this method?" He asked the vampiresses.

Alice nodded. "Yes. We need to keep drinking blood from stronger beings in order to gain stats. Otherwise, our growth will stagnate."

Ysabella further explained, "Initially, we can gain a good amount of stats even from weaker beings, but as we grow stronger, we can no longer do this. Either we have to keep drinking the blood of stronger beings, or we need a large number of weaker beings."

Now everyone understood the whole kidnapping ploy and what they were doing with the humans in the hospital complex.

Instead of risking their lives, these low lives had gone after the weaklings and simply planned to gather a huge number of people, treating them as livestock.

"Is there anything else that we should be aware of?" Alex glared at the two soul minions icily.

Even though they were dead at the moment and had joined their side, she still couldn't help but feel angry looking at the two vampiresses. "What about the whole mind-control thing?"

Alice shook her head. "That is simply a temporary effect. It's a mediocre ability, and it won't do anything if the target has even a tiny amount of mana empowerment, even at level 1."

"Oh. That's good. If they did have a mental attack ability, then this fight would have been so much more difficult." Alex sighed in relief. "Now all we have to do is find these suckers and punch them in the face."

But she then remembered that she had actually seen one of these two fly, so she narrowed her eyes and asked again. "What about other abilities? Why are you able to fly?"

"Other vampires don't have that. Only we both have a special ability."

"You mean others that you created don't have these kinds of abilities?"

"Yes," Alice answered. "Ysabella has a special agility boost, while I can fly and use telekinesis powers to some extent."

"Hmmm… so only the main leaders created by that person have these sorts of abilities." Alex glanced at Liam, and he nodded at her, signalling for her to continue asking the questions.

He silently listened to everything as the group continued interrogating the two minions for another hour or so, asking about all sorts of things and making sure not to leave anything out.

From this, a few other small details came out, such as the regenerative abilities of the vampires. They also seemed to possess a burst damage skill where their stats were temporarily boosted for 10 seconds.

Everyone made a note of all the details and memorized their traits by heart. From tonight's meeting, it was abundantly clear that they were going to face a lot more of these guys from here on out. So it was best to be prepared for it.

The meeting then came to an end after about another hour. Quietly, everyone exited the room, leaving Liam alone with the two slutty vampires once more.

But now, no one was in the mood to think about any frivolous matters.

With the threat of the vampires looming above everyone, they knew very well that they were only coming out on top of this or, rather, surviving because of Liam.

If he were not there, then the consequences would be dire. They were also painfully aware that their actions were restricting him quite a bit.

If not for their group, which hung around his neck like a dead weight, he wouldn't still be here, keeping an eye on things.

So the group silently departed, resolution and determination shining in their eyes. They were all eager to gain strength as quickly as possible. Otherwise, in this new world, they would eventually be left behind in the dust.

Liam was powerful, but he was not a god. Moreover, at least the people in this small group cared enough about him not to place the whole burden on his shoulders.

As the group walked out in deep contemplation, unexpectedly, they ran into someone else on the doorstep.

Standing in front of Alex, Shen Yue, Rey, Mei Mei, and Shin Soo were none other than Lan Ganjie and his two heirs, Lan Deming and Lan Fen. There were also a few others from the same group.

"Did you guys need anything?" Alex crossed her arms and asked sternly.

Lan Ganjie politely smiled. Someone in his political position would have taken offence at being addressed like this, especially by a foreigner, but he knew better.

He did not care about Alex's tone or words and calmly replied, "Madam, I apologize for showing up suddenly like this without prior notice. Please, if you don't mind, spare me a few minutes of your time."

"Huh?" Alex was surprised.

However, before she could answer, Liam walked out of the house, stretching his hands and with a big smile plastered on his face.

"This is in regards to?" He grinned as if he already knew the answer to this question.

Lan Ganjie could see the confidence on the man's face. He chuckled and politely bowed. "We would like to request your permission to join your guild."

"Hmmm." Liam grinned as he gave the nod to the shrewd politician.

Just like he expected, the other side completely folded. The only thing was that he did not expect this to happen so soon, but this was a good thing.

This showed that he was indeed in the right to recruit these people. They were quickly able to adapt to the situation and see what the best course of action was.

If they had waited longer, hesitated, or worse, if Liam had to force their hands to merge the two groups, then this wouldn't have been as fruitful as it was now.

So overall, he was very satisfied with this outcome.

"You are more than welcome to join our guild. We could really use someone who has a political background and your organizational skills." Liam politely replied.

Lan Ganjie smiled. A few others let out sighs of relief.

However, no one in the group was naive or stupid. The other party might be treating them with a lot of respect, but everyone here knew the truth too well.

This was by no means an equal merger. This was a complete surrender.

And sometimes, it was better to surrender to an ally than to die at the hands of the enemy.
