The Vampire's appearance was extremely gruesome, leading Eddie and Dr. Dora to believe that Andy and the others, like Derek, were experimenting on humans.
But before they could ask, they saw Dr. Ethan take out a bottle of liquid and pour a little onto the Vampire's body.
The moment the liquid touched the Vampire, its body hissed, sounding exactly like a steak on a frying pan.
"What's going on? Why did they turn out like this?"
Watching the Vampire wail in agony under the holy water, Dr. Dora immediately confirmed that it was not human.
After all, she had seen with her own eyes that Ethan's hand also had some of that liquid on it, but Ethan was fine.
However, this man seemed to be in immense pain, constantly wailing and suffering terribly.
"This liquid in my hand is holy water. For humans, this water is no different from ordinary water.
But on non-human creatures, it has an extremely strong lethal effect."
Saying this, Dr. Ethan tapped a few times on the tablet in his hand, and a robotic arm extended from the laboratory wall.
It opened its clawed arm towards the Vampire and grabbed it.
"This creature you see is actually a legendary being; it is a Vampire."
Dr. Ethan held a short stick and poked the pained Vampire a few times.
"This is the main business of the Hunter's Tavern: posting bounties to hunt down these legendary man-eating monsters."
Hearing Dr. Ethan's explanation, the two suddenly understood, followed by their uncontrollable curiosity.
As a researcher, Dr. Dora was interested in how the Vampire's life form existed.
Eddie, who was once a reporter, was more interested in the main direction of the Hunter's Tavern.
After entering Hunter's Bar, he had always thought it was just an ordinary Tavern.
Although he didn't know why so many powerful people gathered there,
He always believed it was just a normal Tavern, nothing special.
But the appearance of this Vampire sent his thoughts soaring.
This place is called the Hunter's Tavern, and perhaps the strong individuals here are like the legendary Hunters.
They possess powerful combat skills and some special abilities.
And the power displayed by Jessica and the others was quite mysterious.
He couldn't imagine anyone having the strength to smash a car into scrap with one punch.
He believed that the Hunter's Tavern was actually a place for training Hunters, just like a place specializing in training various workers.
Thinking of this, Eddie felt a little excited.
He didn't expect to encounter such thrilling things here; this was much more exciting than his interviewing life in San Francisco.
"So we're actually going to hunt Vampires? Do I need to prepare anything, like garlic?"
Looking at Eddie, who was excited with a hint of curiosity, Dr. Ethan did not indulge his fantasy.
Instead, he shook his head and said, "Most of the time, Hunter's Bar doesn't hunt Vampires itself.
However, if you want to hunt them yourself, Hunter's Bar will give you a corresponding reward after confirming the Vampire you've captured.
It's just that Jessica and the others haven't caught a single one these days, so I don't think you'll be able to catch a Vampire."
Dr. Ethan did not hide anything from Eddie; what he said was the truth.
After all, many Vampire hunters have already returned to Europe to hunt.
Vampires in the U.S. are pitifully few; they have all been captured by Vampire hunters seeking bounty rewards.
Only a few scattered Vampires still lurk in the U.S., but they all dare not reveal their identities.
Every day they try every possible way to hide their identities, living a more miserable life than a criminal in hiding.
Although Dr. Ethan expressed distrust towards him, this did not affect Eddie's mood.
He had Venom's help, and a Vampire that could be caught by ordinary people couldn't be his opponent.
Therefore, he was still immersed in fantasy, imagining himself relying on Venom to capture Vampires en masse and ultimately becoming a millionaire.
Watching Eddie, who was already lost in fantasy, Ethan shook his head helplessly.
He tapped his finger on the tablet a few times, and the Vampire, held by the robotic arm, was forcibly folded and put into a cage..
Amidst the Vampire's cries of pain, the cage was sent to the underground warehouse where Vampires were stored.
That was built by Dr. Ethan specifically for Vampires; each Vampire would stay in an opaque glass single room, unable to communicate with other Vampires.
Watching the Vampire being taken away, Dora turned to Dr. Ethan.
"This is what we're going to study? Heavens, this is absolutely fantastic."
As a researcher, this special research subject fascinated her.
Anyway, they weren't humans, so there was no burden in her heart.
She had infiltrated the Life Foundation with Eddie because Derek was extensively experimenting on humans with Symbiotes.
If Derek had used these Vampires back then, she wouldn't have infiltrated the Life Foundation with Eddie.
And then she wouldn't have been locked in Whip's laboratory by Derek.
Although she eventually merged with Whip and retaliated against Derek,
The root cause of all these events was the Life Foundation using humans for experiments.
Now she was facing a group of Vampires, and regarding these non-human creatures,
She maintained the same attitude as everyone else: since they weren't human,
Then experimenting with these Vampires certainly wouldn't leave any bad feelings.
This, in fact, perfectly aligned with the selection criteria of scientists like them who conducted research.
No matter what, they were humans, and using humans for experiments was never a good thing.
"So what is our research topic?"
Now Dr. Dora was impatient; she wanted to show off her research capabilities to everyone.
Looking at the eager Dr. Dora, Ethan nodded and smiled, "We have many research topics, and these studies are constantly expanding."
Dr. Ethan picked up a thick experimental log and handed it to Dr. Dora. This log meticulously recorded his research matters.
The experimental log contained extensive records of Vampire research, constantly delving deeper into Vampire genetics and viruses.
Although there hadn't been much significant progress so far, Dr. Ethan had also created many tools specifically targeting Vampires by studying them.
The remaining small portion was Dr. Ethan's research on other matters.
The things recorded within were too numerous to count.
Things like UV sterilizers and ultra-nanofiber combat suits were all recorded one by one.
Looking at this experimental log, Dr. Dora felt like she had found a treasure.
Because the log was so detailed, every step within it allowed her to learn a great deal.
Dr. Dora read it repeatedly, word by word, diligently absorbing the knowledge within.
She completely forgot that she was still in Ethan's underground laboratory, and that so many people were waiting for her.
Seeing Dr. Dora already engrossed in her studies, no one disturbed her.
They shuffled out of the laboratory, leaving Dr. Dora there to quietly read Dr. Ethan's experimental log.
Back at the bar, Stark played with the wine glass in his hand and laughed loudly at Dr. Ethan:
"Hahaha, Ethan, if you keep this up, you'll become Frankenstein the Second."
Yes, Dr. Ethan's laboratory was becoming stranger and stranger.
He remembered that after the laboratory was built, he specifically came to congratulate him.
At that time, the laboratory still looked like a laboratory, but looking at it now,
The underground laboratory had become a terrible sight; although the various pieces of equipment were still neatly arranged,
The strange things in the laboratory became more and more numerous. Now Dr. Ethan was both like a mad scientist and a homeless man living in a garbage dump.
Even though the place where this homeless man lived was full of high-end experimental equipment.
To Stark's teasing, Dr. Ethan smiled and said,
"Perhaps I was already a mad scientist, ever since I was in the Terrorists' underground Base.
From the moment I performed surgery on you and saved your life, I've been developing in the direction of a mad scientist."
Ethan felt there was nothing wrong with being a mad scientist, and besides, everyone here had different abilities.
If being a mad scientist could put him on par with the people in front of him,
Then he was willing to accept the title, after all, the title of mad scientist immediately suggested a crazy scientist.
"Ha~ Well done!"
Watching him casually retort Stark's words, Andy smiled and high-fived Ethan.
He had known Stark would be like this, he just hadn't said anything until now.
This was Stark's usual habit, always liking to give others a title he invented.
Although everyone knew he meant no harm, those awkward appellations really made many people uncomfortable.
Of course, some people could accept this, for example, Pepper, who had always admired him, was a good example.
Stark, who had been retorted by Dr. Ethan, didn't feel embarrassed. He smiled and raised his wine glass to Andy and the others.
The few of them all picked up their wine glasses and took a sip; these were all jokes, just for relaxing conversation.
In a private setting, they might address each other casually like this.
But in a more serious setting, they wouldn't address others so casually.
As they were chatting, Hunter's Bar's door suddenly opened.
A group of thugs, armed with weapons, swaggered into Hunter's Bar.
Leading them was a burly thug, and judging by his arrogant demeanor,
Andy knew that this guy and the large group of people behind him were all from outside Hell's Kitchen.
However, this made Andy a little confused; why would these people suddenly appear in Hell's Kitchen?
You have to know that any random thug from Hell's Kitchen could at least be a small boss outside of Hell's Kitchen.
These people weren't very strong, but they had learned the thugs' arrogance perfectly.
Moreover, Kingpin had specifically issued an order prohibiting all fights near Hunter's Bar and within it.
Were these people not afraid of death, daring to come to Hunter's Bar to cause trouble?
"Who hurt my brother? Step forward quickly."
The leader stepped forward and shouted loudly. He seemed not to fear Kingpin's punishment at all.
Everyone in Hunter's Bar looked at the leader, all showing disdain.
These people, for some unknown reason, gained courage. Although their strength was not great, their physical recovery and defensive abilities were very strong, making them extremely resilient.
The reason they appeared in Hell's Kitchen was because a small gang in Hell's Kitchen had a fight with them.
That gang was continuously attacked by these people, and eventually the entire gang was dragged down and disbanded.
All members joined other nearby gangs, and their original territory became the place where these people were stationed.
Relying on their strange recovery abilities, they ran rampant in Hell's Kitchen.
It seemed that whatever they wanted, they would definitely achieve their goals.
Therefore, these people had no help in Hell's Kitchen; they only relied on their own recovery and defensive abilities, constantly clashing with other gangs.
