Shen Qiang hung up the phone while Qian Shanxue was already on her feet, eagerly rubbing her hands together as she looked at Shen Qiang and said, "Let's get going!"
"Get going for what?" Shen Qiang leaned back in his chair, coolly crossed his legs, and said, "Just sit down, drink tea, and wait for news."
The three women were taken aback.
Qian Shanxue furrowed her brows and said, "We should take the initiative to attack."
Shen Qiang laughed, "This provincial city is so big. Where are you going to start? Do you know where they are? Are you sure they are still in bat form?"
Qian Shanxue fell silent.
Ali urgently said, "Exactly, it's precisely because we don't know where they are or their current state that we need to be proactive."
"Save it, go pour me a cup of tea." Shen Qiang glanced at Ali, then said, "Let my subordinates go search."
"Those bunch of misfits under you?" Ali curled her lip, "Even we have no clue where to start with these Blood Clan members; it's impossible for them to find them."
Shen Qiang raised his eyebrow, "Tea."
Ali helplessly walked over and poured Shen Qiang a cup of tea.
Ye Xiaolei said, troubled, "If we could find just one, I could use their unique scent to track them down. But finding them out of thin air in this provincial city is almost impossible; after all, the city has a population of over four million, not to mention there's a large floating population..."
Seeing Ye Xiaolei's distress, Shen Qiang chuckled, "Go take a break, listen to some music, browse the internet. I'll update you when we get results."
Hearing this, Ali curled her lip, "Tsk, as if your misfits could solve everything the moment they take action."
Shen Qiang glanced at her sideways, "Don't underestimate my subordinates. Every single one of them is tougher than you."
Ali, displeased, rolled her eyes at Shen Qiang.
At this moment, Qian Shanxue sat down instead, calmly stating, "Given the current situation, I think Shen Qiang is right. If even the demons of Heshenghe can't find them, charging out would be chasing shadows."
Shen Qiang raised his eyebrows, "There should be traces. Don't forget, we're in the North; normally, bats aren't seen in this season, so someone must remember seeing them."
While saying this, Shen Qiang typed the Blood Clan information into his notebook computer.
Soon, the data retrieved from the Dragon Group made Shen Qiang furrow his brows.
Blood Clan:
1. Western bat demon.
Has long sharp fangs, usually two canine teeth in the upper row. Some vampires can control the extension and retraction of their fangs.
Pale skin, eyes turn red when angry.
Not afraid of sunlight, they don't burn up and turn to ash under the sun.
Strong regenerative abilities, ordinary weapons including firearms hardly pose a lethal threat to the Blood Clan.
The fear of crosses and garlic is unfounded.
Can turn normal humans into Blood Clan members through a ritual called the First Embrace, leading to rapid expansion. However, Blood Clan members transformed through the First Embrace have comparatively low abilities, rarely above the Mixed Element Realm.
2. Chinese Shrew Demon.
Characteristics similar to the Western bat demon, they prioritize individual strength, lack the First Embrace ritual but are stronger in terms of individual power, and are relatively rare in numbers.
3. Zombie.
Just then, Ali, who had been sitting aside for a while, suddenly spoke, "I still think your misfits aren't reliable. How about we go to the scene ourselves?"
Hearing this, Shen Qiang pushed the notebook aside, furrowing his brows, "At the scene, can you simulate the flight path of a bat?"
"No," Ali said.
"Then stop causing trouble. You going there would be just another infected person, nothing more." Shen Qiang said.
Ali, unhappy.
Ye Xiaolei said softly, "Sister Ali, listen to Senior Shen Qiang, he's very skilled."
Qian Shanxue furrowed her brows and said, "Shen Qiang, I still think waiting around is not a solution, after all, many hands make light work."
"If more people could solve everything, then what use would elites have?" Shen Qiang calmly raised his eyebrows, "Sit down and relax. No one is omnipotent. Trust them; though they are demons, they can accomplish things many cultivators can't."
"Sigh...I suppose so."
While Shen Qiang stayed at Jinyu Huacheng, anxiously waiting for news with Qian Shanxue, Ali, and Ye Xiaolei.
Heshenghe Mountain Villa's demons had already reached the city.
Bright-eyed demon Feifei stood by the entrance of an old residential building.
"They've been here," said the big black dog, "I smell the blood stench from that bat demon."
The bright-eyed Feifei raised her eyebrows, "Then let's track them down."
Elsewhere.
The Eagle Demon stood tall on the top floor of a building, coldly gazing down at the city.
"No demon can escape my sight. Come out, let me see what you are."
In an alley.
A large and strong demon looked at the demon crouching on the ground and said, "Focus and find that guy. It's rare for the boss to give orders, if you can't even do this, you won't have the face to eat braised pork in the canteen!"
In the city's drainage system.
A demon with pointed mouth and monkey-like features made squeaking noises.
Soon, numerous rats appeared before him. With a sharp look, he gave orders, "Go, my children. Find those flying mice for me."
The rats seemed to understand and swiftly scattered through the connected drainage system.
Meanwhile, a demon in a large trench coat next to him said, "Leave this to me. Inform me if there's news."
As he spoke, his form scattered, and countless small winged insects flew away, entering various building ventilation systems.
Simultaneously, beside the underground water wells at the city's water plant, a man stood calmly at the bone-chilling well wall.
"Go, find them. Don't disappoint the boss."
Instantly, countless tiny insects swarmed into the water pipes.
High above the clouds, a demon with huge wings watched the approaching Eagle Demon and said, "Any discoveries? Your vision is better than mine."
The Eagle Demon landed on the demon's shoulders, "We keep watch here. They have no escape once they appear."
Meanwhile, beside a cemetery.
A Great Demon said calmly, "Typically, those Blood Clan members hide in quiet corners, so it's either a basement or a tomb that's best suited for them. Go, find them. Don't let the boss think we are worthless."
As soon as he finished speaking.
Countless fist-sized pangolins spread out like a flood and swiftly burrowed underground.
