Chapter 58: The Other Arthur

Allen and Moses followed the secret passage.

Allen walked ahead, carefully on guard.

Moses followed him, holding up a baseball bat with a hint of excitement and awe in his eyes.

"Allen, are you sure you don't need a weapon? How about I give you my baseball bat?" Moses inquired from behind Allen.

Allen refused. He didn't need a baseball bat because he still had a vampire's dagger, which was much better than a baseball bat.

The light bulbs on either side of the tunnel glowed dimly, yet the tunnel was quiet, not dangerous, and not guarded by anyone else.

"How come there's no one there? " Allen frowned in confusion.

Allen only knew that Doris had long ago sidetracked all the guards in the place to make Henry's plan work.

After passing through the secret passage, the sight before him suddenly opened to what appeared to have originally been a wine cellar. Some casks could still be seen. Next to it were many rooms with iron doors closed.

Allen's eyes swept over the iron doors around him. Most were empty. But behind one of those iron doors, Allen saw an old man lying on a bed.

Allen hadn't seen the older man before but was familiar with him. He pulled out his dagger, sliced right through the lock, and opened the door.

Moses followed Allen, walked into the room, and exclaimed in shock at seeing the older man inside.

"Geez! Uncle Rob, what are you doing here? " Moses rushed in to help the frail old man to his feet.

"Who is he?" Allen asked suspiciously.

"He's Jerome's father, Rob. Ah, Evans. Didn't Jerome show you a picture of him? "Moses looked at Allen in surprise.

Allen shook his head; Jerome had never introduced his father.

"Uncle Rob, what are you doing here? Shouldn't you be out entertaining guests? " Moses inquired, looking at Rob in surprise.

A weak Rob shook his head, "That guy out there isn't me. That's James. That old guy got a bottle of medicine from somewhere. Just put in one of my hairs, and it'll take my form. "

"So, is it possible that Arthur is also pretending? No wonder she's after Jerome. "Allen felt like he might have caught the point, but it never occurred to him that the fake Arthur was Henry in disguise.

Rob seemed to think of something and grabbed Moses' hand anxiously. "Never let Jerome get engaged to that woman. She's in cahoots with James, and she's the one who supplied that drug that can change your appearance. "

"Got it, Uncle Evans, I'll take you out now ...... Allen, watch your back!" Moses looked at Allen and suddenly screamed.

Allen thought nothing of lowering his head straight into a roll. Then, a shot rang out, and a bullet hit the wall.

Arthur leaned against the doorframe of her cell and gasped, her hand shaking a little as she gripped her gun. "That damned old woman, she ruined our plans. "

Allen guessed that the older woman Arthur was talking about would be Doris. But why would Doris want to sabotage James' plan? Allen really couldn't figure it out.

"You're Arthur. Why are you here? " Moses looked at Arthur in surprise.

Allen could tell right away that the Arthur in front of her was the honest Arthur because she didn't have that male genitalia in her crotch.

Arthur didn't answer Moses. She looked at the three men in the room and said menacingly, "I don't have time for this. Go to hell. "

Knowing that Arthur was about to pull out his gun and shoot again, Allen quickly threw out the dagger.

The sharp dagger severed Arthur's wrist directly, and her hand fell to the ground along with her pistol.

A great deal of blood spurted from Arthur's wrist, and she wailed piteously.

Moses was frozen in shock at the bloody scene, but something more shocking was yet to come.

Arthur pulled a tube of potion from his pocket and stuck it in her neck.

The moment Allen saw this potion, his pupils shrank.

"Why do you have this drug too? What's your relationship with Mike the Stone?" Allen inquired.

"How do you know Mike? You're a hunter! Fucking asshole! So it was you who ruined our plan. I have to kill you." Arthur's eyes were covered in blood, her scarlet eyes glaring at Allen, while five tentacles emerged from her wrists as they began to wriggle.

"Damn, this guy has superpowers too." Allen immediately looked at his dagger, which he had just thrown out, now stuck in the wall.

A sharp dagger was a good choice when facing these tentacles, but unfortunately, Arthur didn't give Allen that chance.

Five long, thick tentacles jerked toward Allen.

Allen kept dodging among the gaps of the five tentacles with the help of his dynamic vision capture.

"Allen, use this. " Moses tossed a baseball bat aside to Allen.

Allen's hand had just touched the baseball bat. The tentacles wrapped around it, throwing it away.
