Chapter 174: Vampire Hunter
With a heavy heart, Hodge returned home.
He was going to continue to look for the Infinity Stones, although the Power Stone could be used alone, but it would take too much power to use it alone, and Hodge's strength at this time could not be used without scruples.
Therefore, in order to ensure his absolute strength, Hodge must get another gem, and only when the two gems are together, Hodge does not need to consume his own strength to use them, because the two gems can interact with each other.
But when Hodge returned home, there was one more person in the house, a strange woman he didn't know.
"Hodge, where are you going, Tony came looking for you just now, and who is this woman?"
Seeing Hodge come back, Melissa rushed to Hodge's side in one go, raised her white neck, pouted her pink mouth, and quietly pointed at the strange woman, complaining in a low voice.
Looking at Melissa's dissatisfied expression, Hodge wondered even more, this woman didn't know her at all......
Hodge looked up at the uninvited strange woman, about twenty-five years old, with blond shoulder-length hair and a tall build. Kim matched her fair and beautiful face, which was eye-catching.
She wore a black leather trench coat with only a small tight-fitting vest inside, but there were two rows of loops on the sides of the vest, and on top hung a throwing knife with a shining silver handle, twenty in all, ten on the left and one on the left.
On the lower body, she was a pair of tight leather pants, which were not visible on the surface, but if someone lifted her trench coat, it would reveal that the woman had two pistols pinned to her waist, which were filled with silver bullets.
Although she looks like an urban beauty on the surface, if someone has the same abilities as Hodge, this woman is simply a weapon maniac.
In addition to the weapons on her body, the woman herself is not simple, and the muscles all over her body are compact. Like a cheetah, it can deliver a fatal blow to its prey at any time.
The knuckles are slightly thicker than normal, and the skin on the palms and muzzles of the hands is rough, apparently doing some kind of exercise.
What made Hodge frown the most was that the woman was walking towards him with a smile on her face.
"Excuse me, are you ......?"
"Oh, hello. Mr. Paso, you can call me Rachel. Seeing Hodge looking at herself suspiciously, the woman quickly stretched out her right hand and shook Hodge, and then introduced herself.
"Rachel? We've seen it? Hodge tilted his head and looked at the woman, his brow furrowed. Obviously, I don't have the slightest impression of this somewhat self-cooked woman.
Seeing Hodge's appearance, Melissa, who was standing beside him, quietly breathed a sigh of relief, glanced at Hodge, and then said to Rachel with a smile: "Then this sister, you talk slowly, I'll go and prepare some drinks for you." ā
The woman named Rachel smiled and nodded to Melissa, then turned her head and looked at Hodge sternly, "No." We don't know each other. ā
"But maybe you've seen this guy." As she spoke, Rachel pulled out a photograph of a tall, thin young man with sickly fair skin from the outside pocket of her trench coat.
Seeing the young man, Hodge remembered the mutant he had met that day when he rescued Elizabeth.
"Yes, I've met once, just a mutant. Do you know him? Hodge pretended not to care on the surface, but in his heart he was vigilant, as long as the woman nodded, Hodge would not hesitate to make a move.
"Mutants?" Rachel's eyes widened and she looked at Hodge in surprise.
"How?" Rachel's demeanor made Hodge wonder, "Isn't what you said right?" Thinking like this, Rachel shook her head with a smile and asked, "How do you think he's a mutant?" ā
Hodge looked down and pondered. In his own memory, except for people with technological abilities like Tony, gods like Tony, and some strange magical abilities, all the other people with abilities are mutants.
But look at the way Rachel looks. Obviously, there was still a part of Cun ZĆ i that he didn't know, staring at Rachel for a while, and then hesitantly said, "Isn't he?" ā
Rachel smiled and said firmly, "Of course not." Immediately, Rachel's voice turned cold, and a cold glint erupted from her eyes, "How can these devils call them 'people'?" It's so much to look up to them. ā
Hearing Rachel refer to the young man with "it" instead of "he", Hodge was even more sure of his guess, but if they weren't mutants, could they be some kind of researched entity?
In this world, there are many failed real bodies that have been studied in the real yĆ n room, they are very powerful, but they are unstable, and most of them will be imprisoned and put for observation.
A small number of them will escape from the chamber or be deliberately released by the research institute for special observation.
But before Hodge's idea could be found, Rachel interrupted her, who looked at Hodge with a smile, like a hungry beast looking at a piece of roasted meat with spices, her eyes glowing green.
"You've heard that...... Vampire legends? Rachel glanced back at the two behind her, and suddenly the whole person approached Hodge, and asked in a low voice.
Rachel's sudden action surprised Hodge, smelling the faint fragrance lingering in his nose, Hodge's face turned slightly red, he took a small step back in embarrassment, nodded and said, "Of course, do you want to say that guy is a vampire?" ā
Seeing Hodge's movements, Rachel smiled charmingly, stretched out her bright red tongue and licked her red lips, closing in again. "Do you think vampires are just fictional characters in stories? Even people have appeared in this world......"
"Well, even if he's the vampire you say, what about you? You look familiar with those guys. "Hodge faced Rachel's 'aggressive' posture and couldn't help but take a step back again, distancing himself from her, lest Melissa see and misunderstand something.
"Me?" Rachel saw Hodge ask about herself, she put away the charming smile on her face, took a step back, and stretched out her right hand solemnly, "Officially, Rachel Helsing, a vampire hunter." ā
Hodge was surprised to see Rachel's face change faster than turning the book, and while secretly admiring it in his heart, he also stretched out his right hand, "Hodge Paso, everyone who knows me calls me Hodge, you can call me that." ā
"Oh!"
Rachel gently shook Hodge's hand, then lengthened her voice, looked at Hodge with a smile, and raised her eyebrows, "Doesn't Mr. Hodge introduce his profession?" ā
"Occupation?" The corners of Hodge's mouth twitched, and then Rachel's surprised expression said four words.
"...... of the homeless"
