After leaving the bank, Zhuang Li immediately returned to the rental house, put on makeup, and went to the laboratory to test Emile's blood.

The TV placed next to it was broadcasting social news.

It is now late at night. According to usual rules, the city should have fallen into silence.

No one would walk in the darkness where lesser vampires lurk unless they wanted to die.

But today, the streets outside were filled with noise and clamor. Troops moved in and out of the city, searching for those high-ranking vampires who hadn't been slain by the sun. Gunfire and explosions rang out from time to time, and flames and smoke rose above the city.

The brave people ran out of their homes and gathered in front of the vampires' mansion.

They poured gasoline around the mansion and threw the torches in their hands. The raging fire burned down these dens, illuminating the dark night and everyone's eyes.

Everyone looked up at the flames like pilgrims, their pupils filled with tears and hope.

A human reporter raised the microphone and choked up, "See? My fellow viewers across the country! The dark age of vampires has arrived! Let us fight for the light together!"

The crowd surrounding the reporter raised their hands and cheered. They could finally breathe freely and laugh heartily in their own city again.

Zhuang Li turned his gaze away from the microscope and shook his head, saying, "It's still a long way from true liberation."

7480 asked curiously, "Master, is there anything different about Emile's blood?"

"I've noticed something interesting." Zhuang Li transferred the electron microscope images to his computer and explained, "Emile's cells are very active, but she's not immortal. She simply ages more slowly than others. Her telomeres are much longer than those of an average person. I estimate she can live to at least 200 years old."

7480 was surprised: "Then her lifespan is the same as that of interstellar humans."

"Yes, a drop of Le Qinglan's blood can give an ordinary person at least 100 years of extra lifespan. Whether human or vampire, they will be crazy about her." Zhuang Li rubbed his brows and pondered, "To unlock Le Qinglan's secret, I must obtain her blood, and also purchase some DNA testing equipment."

He shook his head and sighed regretfully, "The equipment in this institute is still too outdated. Where can I find more sophisticated equipment?"

He opened the webpage and was about to search for relevant information when the laboratory door lock was broken by several bullets and a group of fully armed soldiers rushed in.

"Are you Wang Tiantu?" A soldier pointed a gun at Zhuang Li's head and ordered, "Get out with us!"

Zhuang Li raised his hand and went out obediently. When he walked out to the hall, he found that the other five researchers had also been brought here.

It seems that this research institute has been taken over by the human army.

A middle-aged man in military uniform was looking at everyone with dignity.

There was also a handsome man wearing gold-rimmed glasses sitting lazily on a sofa, flipping through a thick stack of experimental records.

Zhuang Li stared at the handsome man for a few seconds, and a dark light flashed in his pupils.

The middle-aged man in military uniform shouted, "Stand up straight, everyone! Don't look around!" Finally, he bent down and asked the handsome man, "How are they going to deal with this?"

"Him, him, him, take him out and execute him." The handsome man pointed out three researchers and said coldly, "They have drained the blood of humans with their own hands."

The handsome man pointed at a researcher while looking through the experimental records and said, "Let him go. He only used blood from the blood bank for experiments and never killed humans. We are in urgent need of talent right now, and he can still stay and work."

The middle-aged man nodded without objection.

The handsome man looked at Zhuang Li and smiled with interest. "The person with the least experience has the highest budget, the best equipment, the highest authority, and even free access to blood from the infant blood bank. You are quite something. Most of the equipment you purchased has nothing to do with blood research. What are you planning to do? Switch to pharmaceutical manufacturing?"

The handsome man stood up, walked around Zhuang Li, and looked him up and down.

Zhuang Li stood there with a calm expression, but inwardly he sighed, "The old boss was better. He could fool me however he wanted."

7480 asked quietly, "Master, what are you going to do now?"

"The new boss is hard to fool, so I'll just quit and leave." Zhuang Li said nonchalantly, "I'll buy my own equipment and do my own research at home. That way I can spend more time with Lei Ming."

As they were talking, the handsome man suddenly approached Zhuang Li, stared into his eyes, and then looked at his white hair and wrinkled skin.

He seemed to have discovered something, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and he smiled very happily, "Old friend, we meet again."

The middle-aged man was surprised: "Do you know him?"

"Yes, I know him." The handsome man took two steps back, pointed to the sofa where he had been sitting, and invited him, "Please sit down. Do you know who I am?"

Zhuang Li sighed and said slowly, "Hello, we meet again. Thank you for your care some time ago."

7480: "...What happened? Master, did my computer just freeze? Did I miss any plot?"

Zhuang Li answered in his heart, "He is the doctor with the bird's beak."

7480: "Damn, you can tell even though it's wrapped so tightly?"

"The distance between pupils, height, body shape, and physical features will not change. He also recognized me based on these characteristics." Zhuang Li took off his wig and beard and slowly walked towards the sofa.

The handsome man had already prepared a pack of wet wipes and handed it to him with both hands.

Zhuang Li took out a tissue and wiped off the makeup on her face.

Seeing this incredibly familiar face, everyone in the hall gasped. Recovering from his shock, the middle-aged man immediately crossed his legs, stood up straight, and saluted. The other soldiers also lowered their weapons and saluted in unison.

The researcher who hadn't been dragged off to be executed was stunned. Holy crap! Their research institute actually had such a giant Buddha hidden away!

The handsome man bowed ninety degrees and chuckled, "I didn't expect to meet you here. I'm so happy."

Zhuang Li crumpled up the wet tissue and threw it into the trash can. He then asked directly, "So, what are you planning to do now that you've taken over this institute?"

The handsome man pulled out a beautifully packaged bottle of blood, his smile growing more amused. "What a coincidence! I was planning to study this 'Fountain of Life' and interrogate its creator, Dr. Wang Tiantu. But that's no longer necessary. I'm certain that the vampires' fear of sunlight is due to your masterpiece."

The handsome man bowed again. "Mr. Zhuang Li, we need your help. To be honest, we have been researching ways to kill vampires, but we haven't made much progress. Your appearance has given us hope. I know your experience and your hatred. Your ideals should be the same as mine, right?"

"My ideal is to kill all vampires and restore the world to normal." Zhuang Li said lightly.

"What a coincidence, we are the same." The handsome man smiled sincerely.

The soldiers standing in the hall also looked at Zhuang Li, their gazes filled with fervor, respect, and anticipation. They vaguely realized that the future lay in the hands of this man.

Zhuang Li looked around at everyone, confirming their firm stance, before slowly saying, "I've injected this vial of blood with a type of photosensitive nanoparticle."

Before he could explain further, the handsome man suddenly understood. "Photosensitive nanoparticles absorb light, heat up, and vibrate, tearing apart the cells they're attached to. This is a cancer treatment method. In the medical world, it's still just a concept. I didn't expect you, Mr. Zhuang, to actually create a finished product."

"It's amazing to use the method of treating cancer to kill vampires!" The handsome man smiled and clapped, his face full of aftertaste.

"Do you have a pharmaceutical factory?" Zhuang Li asked.

"Yes! We can produce this photosensitive nanoparticle for you in large quantities, but the blood we have in stock may not be enough to sell to all the vampires in China." The handsome man hesitated.

"I know where there is an inexhaustible supply of blood." Zhuang Li said with a smile.

The handsome man understood after a moment's thought and slowly uttered three words: "Le Qinglan?" It seemed that he was also very aware of Le Qinglan's unique physique.

"Yes, her blood can supply vampires all over the world. But first, I have to find her weakness and find a way to capture her."

"As far as I know, she seems to have no weaknesses. Even if her heart explodes, her head is chopped off, she is poisoned, she is electrocuted, she is burned by fire, she is bombed by a bomb, or she is infected by nuclear radiation, she can survive. As long as any part of her body remains, she can become a complete person again." The handsome man said in a serious tone.

Hearing this, all the soldiers showed expressions of fear. They had no idea what kind of monster this was.

7480 stammered, "Fufufu, Tomie?"

"What is Tomie?" Zhuang Li's knowledge in this regard is very narrow.

"Tomie is an immortal monster! She is the shadow of my childhood!" 7480 shouted, pulling his hair.

The handsome man sighed and said, "So far, we haven't found a way to kill Le Qinglan. Whenever I think of her, I feel despair. She is the greatest terror in this world."

Zhuang Li shook his head disapprovingly: "The laws of nature won't allow such a monster to be born. She must have weaknesses."

"I hope your theory is correct. This is my collection. I hope you can use it to find Le Qinglan's weakness." The handsome man suddenly took off his ruby ring and handed it to Zhuang Li, explaining, "Open the ring. Inside is a drop of Le Qinglan's blood. Do you need any other testing equipment? I can find it for you."

Zhuang Li took the ring and said bluntly, "Find me all the scientific research equipment you can find on the market, and also help me set up an ICU ward."

He raised the ruby ring, looked at it against the light, and the corners of his lips slowly rose. "Little idiot, do you think a person who can never be killed can be killed?"

7480 replied seriously, "Others may not be able to do it, but you, Master, can definitely do it!"

"No, it's not that I can do it, but there is no immortal life in the world. The universe will be destroyed, let alone human beings?" Zhuang Li shook his head and walked quickly into the laboratory.
