Chapter 134 - Blood?- 3

~Catchah!

The door opened exaggeratedly.

What do they do? What do they do?

Everyone quickly stood behind Dorian and his men, daring not to go ahead of themselves. 

I peek here, you peek there. I peek over your shoulder, you peek under my legs. 

Everyone began the peeking game, trying to stretch and retract their necks as fast as they could from various angels within their 'formation.'

That is, what if something suddenly shoots them the money they dispersed? Hahaha... Nice try. But they were too smart to fall for that!

The gang moved, with many also looking back and sideways from time to time too. 

F***! 

Ghu Sota stared at the massive warehouse and only felt like he was in an Indiana Jones movie.

Lying tough. Wasn't this just a tad bit exaggerated to be a storage facility?

Crates and crates of all shapes and sizes, we're stacked way up high in the massive warehouse-style room that looked as though it had no end. 

The place was freaking huge, so much so that he couldn't see the end from where he was.

Okay... Now it made for them to have passed through so many security stations just to get here. 

Crates filled with all sorts of precious artifacts and items were stored here. And he was sure that if a person stole any of the items here, it would no doubt fetch them some good cool cash for many years to come.

Items came in and went out daily, with some scheduled to be auctioned out several months later. 

Of course, some also got sold to Museums and other reputable establishments.

That is, there was no doubt that this Auction Home had its own contracted 'Hunters' and Tomb raiders that would go out in search of priceless artifacts.

So imagine stealing something from here? It was the dream for many, if not all, thieves within the country. But with the high-tech security systems in place, such a feat would be too difficult to carry out. Talk less of transpiring any crates out.

Yes. Even in their case, without the head guard letting them in, I'm afraid that the 'Intruder security system' would've come alive, spraying those previous rooms with all sorts of chemical gases while blocking or stopping all doors from opening. 

That is, the door they came through would've been locked, and the door ahead of them would also get permanently shut too. 

But that might not even be all there was to it. The hidden weapons with scanning and detecting software might also come alive too. 

That is, even though Ghu Sota didn't know about the security systems in place, he still felt that any thieves coming here would only be digging their graves instead. 

And while they were vigilantly advancing, their enemies finally sensed their presence.

...

Amidst the pile of fallen bodies, 4 out of the many had now been torn into countless pieces, with their bellies topped open and even their eyes plucked out.

Horrible. 

The scene was just too horrible, as though the bodies were torn apart by some monstrous animal. However, no animal known to man could leave such a gore scene. What sort of claws, teeth and strength could cause such a thing?

~Grw Grw Grw Grw~

The faint sounds of gnawing and bones breaking, echoed out across the scene, with 2 strange figures continuously lowering their heads and feasting merrily.

The meal was scrumptious, with them picking their first dinner choice being those with the highest levels of fear.

'Help! Help! Help! Help!'

The other bodies around were still alive, laying there like soul-less puppets. They wanted to scream, but they wanted to shout. But they couldn't.

All they could do was cry silently with some even soiling themselves in the process.

Panic flared in their eyes while watching and listening to the constant sounds of chewing from the beasts before them.

Were they going to die like this? Was this going to be the end of them?

Fear, anxiety, desperation and all sorts of negative emotions were all they could think of while staring at the gruesome scene before them.

They secretly pleaded and begged for these things to let them go. But little did they know that everything they were going, was only making their flesh sweeter and sweeter for the kill.

Hahahhahahaha!

Delicious!

The culprits behind their demise continuously feasted on the bodies of the dead. 

But suddenly, everyone saw these creatures abruptly raise their heads simultaneously while staring at an angle further away from them. 

And before they could make heads or tails of what was going on, the creatures vanished before their very eyes like magic. 

Puff~

"Grandmaster. Grandmaster. Over there. Over there! I see dead people!"

[The group of dead people]: (:+°+:)... Screw you! Who the hell are you saying is dead? Your ancestors are the ones who are dead!

Everyone lying on the ground only cried even more when listening to the group of people approaching them. 

F***! They weren't even dead yet. But these people were here charging them already. Everyone only felt aggrieved by the arrival of these hateful people cursing them to death.

Nonetheless, whether these people were here to rescue them or not, they didn't want these people to die since this might be their only chance of escape.

Yes.

Those creatures probably sense them before vanishing from their presence. So for sure, the enemies were still around.

What to do? What to do?

Their bodies were unresponsive, with their eyes being the only things they could control. 

But even at that, they were still unwilling to die like this.

No. As humans, they would prevail!

(*^*)

.

Like so, the 'dead people' all struggled to twitch and blink as eye-catchingly as possible, with some knowing morse code.

And the scene of over 30 guards gathered in one place was very hard to miss. 

But Dorian's attention wasn't focused on them.

Very slowly, he started upwards in silence 

[Host... There are 2 of them.]

'I know.... They're the shadows.'
