Modern Cultivation : The Strongest Couple Bonded by Vampire System

Chapter 307: Drug

'But even number-wise, it's not worth it. The casualty is too high.'

'That is for us humans. Do you forget what we do with other animals when we need larger numbers of them to butcher?'

Felix didn't need another word to understand what Heimdall meant. Forceful breeding.

'Where do you think they do this?'

'I doubt it's in this city, but maybe they have a small operation for it. You want to find out?'

'Not now. Let's focus on Edward's situation first.'

'But what if?'

'Hah, no way. You know how he is. Do you think he will let that happen?

He will kill himself first before he cheats on Luca, no matter the circumstances.'

'You are right. That means he should be somewhere else. I just hope he is not inside the dungeon.'

'The most dangerous place is usually the safest one. I honestly suspect that is where Edward ended up.'

Heimdall let out a sigh.

"Hei, Agni, why are you sighing like that? Don't have any money to buy a good dog?" A voice reached his ear with a gloating tone.

Looking back, Heimdall could see one of the Dragari coming at him with an arrogant expression.

He also pulled three humans like Agni, but they looked fiercer. Their eyes were red, and they kept gritting their teeth like animals.

'These bastards are even worse than Agni!' Heimdall cursed in his mind. But outwardly, he returned the remark with an arrogant tone. "You talk like you have the money."

"Of course I have. Don't you see these three? They all are specialized dogs." He said as he pulled on the chain, choking the three people's necks. Two of them were male, while one was female.

"Hah, what specialized? They just have weak abilities. Otherwise, there would be no need for you to use drugs on them."

Heimdall said this with a smirk. He didn't really know, but it was just his guess.

Even though they saw humans like beasts or animals, purchasing them required money.

Using an enhanced drug that dulled their minds, turning them into mindless beasts, would certainly lower their value. So he was confident in his remark.

The Dragari turned silent for a moment, but then he replied, "Hmph, a lot of talk. If you dare, let's fight our hunting dogs in the arena."

"Why should I accept it? What can you even give me if I win?" Enjoy new chapters from m-v l'-NovelBin.net

"Hah, you are so conceited. I dare to bet anything as long as you do the same."

An idea then surfaced in his mind. He felt this was the perfect opportunity to gain some intel.

Not like he could lose. With Felix's mastery over shadows, utilizing it to cheat in battle was not hard.

And Gabriel had already guessed what drug they used on these humans. It's a beast drug that turns the user into a wild state.

They won't attack if they are not disturbed, but when they are, they will attack brutally.

'They probably also mix something else to make sure the drugged humans don't attack them. But I am sure they still haven't removed the side effects.

When they overdose, the brain will turn to mush and shut down the body entirely.'

'Felix, could you steal some of the drugs from the store? I am sure there are some.'

'Fine,' Felix replied without asking back. He could guess what Heimdall wanted to do.

This would result in the three humans dying, but honestly, he felt death was a better fate for them. Those drugged with this drug have no hope of recovery.

The shadow moved toward the store, jumping from one to another as long as it was in his point of view.

As this place was in the middle of the city and filled with a crowd, Felix never ran out of targets.

Inside, the store looked like a slave market. It was filled with many cages with information on the humans. None were clothed, and almost all of them had lifeless gazes in their eyes.

But some of them intrigued Felix; their eyes burned with rage and anger. It was the eyes of people who wanted to fight back.

Felix tagged each of them, leaving something in their shadows. He felt they could free them and cooperate. But now, this was not his main target.

He got close to the cashier, where the shopkeeper was having some debate with a customer.

It seemed the customer complained that the human he purchased was sick and died a week after the purchase, but the seller insisted they were all healthy and checked before being sold.

As they had a heated debate, Felix entered the shopkeeper's shadow. If anyone looked at his shadow now, they would quickly realize something was strange.

The shadow seemed to move independently from the shopkeeper, but thankfully, no one noticed. They were too busy with their own tasks.

'Found it,' Felix thought.

One of the boxes in the lowest cupboard then disappeared without anyone realizing it. If the shopkeeper found out, one of the employees would be held responsible, and their wages would be cut.

Thankfully, this would never happen, since before the shopkeeper realized it, something big would happen first. Something that would turn the city upside down.

Returning outside, Felix frowned as he couldn't find Heimdall in the last spot.

He could feel his approximate location from the marker he left, but this still annoyed him.

'Dammit, couldn't he just make up something and wait here?'

Feeling annoyed, Felix started hitchhiking toward every shadow he saw.

Meanwhile, Alex and the group kept making their way deeper into the red zone. Their path now started leaving a trail of blood as the density of the monsters kept rising.

"Alex, do you think all these monsters come from a dungeon break? Mutation? Or just reproduction?"

"Based on how long this place has been a red zone, I doubt it's the last one. Only a dungeon break or mutation could raise the monster population this much."
