Those Classmates who Suddenly Disappeared
Chapter 1559: Left a Way Out

Chapter 1559: Chapter 1559: Left a Way Out

The vampire army that Xue Wang painstakingly established, tens of thousands strong, was completely annihilated; even Lord Xiong, their last resort, could not save himself. Organization X can now be said to have lost its momentum completely.

The Hunter’s Guild set its sights on the mansion, everyone becoming invigorated, for this was a day they had long awaited, a day they once thought would never come. They were truly about to completely eradicate Organization X.

"Take action!" With just a simple command from Lie Shou, the Hunter’s Guild began to move, calling for reinforcements via walkie-talkie.

Soon, several helicopters hovered overhead, targeting the mansion with a barrage of rockets, unleashing all their might on Organization X’s last stronghold.

Boom, boom, boom! The mansion was bombarded relentlessly, with continuous explosions shaking the land. Flames engulfed the mansion, walls shattered, and ultimately, the building collapsed with a roar, raising a cloud of dust that heralded the end of a vast power.

Although vampires wouldn’t be so easily killed, with the mansion collapsed and no place to shield them from the sunlight, even the most powerful Xue Wang would be reduced to ashes.

Gu Fan watched the mansion collapse into ruins with an expressionless face, just watching silently, as if he knew the outcome all along.

"Find them—now! It’s daylight; they won’t pose any threat." Lie Shou ordered his subordinates to quickly dig through the ruins, not at ease until they saw Xue Wang.

This was the most critical moment; everyone began to move rubble from the ruins without any tools. Although slow and strenuous, their heated passion was unstoppable.

Lie Shou knew they had to act fast, to finish within the day, lest it become much harder once night fell.

After several calls from Lie Shou, eventually, the reinforcements arrived, and they brought excavators with them, greatly speeding up the clearing of the ruins.

Thanks to everyone’s concerted efforts, within nearly three hours, the ruins were completely excavated.

But what everyone had hoped for did not occur. Beneath the ruins there was only more rubble—no member of the Xue Clan to be found. The mansion was empty when it was attacked.

"How could this be?" Lie Shou frowned, he clearly saw Xue Wang and his followers enter the place before.

In response, Gu Fan explained, "What’s there to be surprised about? Did you really think Organization X would just sit around and wait for death? They must have dug an escape tunnel in advance."

Hearing this, everyone looked at Gu Fan in astonishment, and Lie Shou even accused, "You knew all along, didn’t you? Why didn’t you tell us sooner? Do you have any idea what letting Xue Wang escape means?"

"The consequence is that you won’t be able to sleep. I don’t care." Gu Fan’s words were infuriating and attracted hostility from many within the Hunter’s Guild.

Irina approached and placatingly said, "Gu Fan, I know you are still angry with us, but did you know that before the Hunter’s Guild was established, no one dared to oppose the vampires, everyone could only watch as Organization X did as it pleased? Everything the Hunter’s Guild has strived for was to create a world without vampires."

"I have a lot of respect for you. When no one else would stand against the vampires, it was you who stepped forward and protected humanity. But I am also disappointed in you, because what I see in you is full of hatred towards vampires, and this kind of hatred has gone far beyond your ideal of protecting humanity." The indifference in Gu Fan’s words implied a fundamental disagreement with the Hunter’s Guild.

Irina understood what Gu Fan meant. Gu Fan believed that vampires could never be completely eradicated. Rather than fighting endlessly, it was better to seek coexistence with the vampires.

After this battle, the fact that Organization X was able to rebuild tens of thousands of vampires in a short time was enough to prove Gu Fan right.

However, the Hunter’s Guild still insisted on eliminating all vampires. It wasn’t that the Hunter’s Guild was foolishly attempting the impossible, but rather they were driven by their hatred, unable to stop their killing intent towards vampires. That was why Gu Fan was disappointed in the Hunter’s Guild and claimed that their hatred towards vampires had surpassed their principle of protecting humanity.

Lie Shou would not admit this, loudly accusing: "Listen up, Gu Fan, if Blood King escapes today, it’s all your fault."

Gu Fan had intended to leave, but feeling Lie Shou’s unfriendly attitude, he turned back, expressed his disdain, and then said: "I’m sorry, but it was because I saw no one in the ruins that I guessed Blood King and the others fled using a secret passage; it was just your own slow response, don’t blame me."

The leader of the mighty Hunter’s Guild, when had they ever been treated like this? But what could they say, this was Gu Fan after all.

A member of the Hunter’s Guild shouted: "Don’t forget, Gu Fan, without the help of the Hunter’s Guild, you and your companions would not have breached Dark City alone."

"Thank you for that, it was mutual help, I owe you no favors," Gu Fan waved his hand, showing he didn’t want to linger any longer.

As the sky gradually darkened, Gu Fan gave a friendly reminder: "I advise you, instead of blaming me, you’d better start searching. At night, Blood King will surely counter-attack."

"I know, no need for your reminder." Just as Lie Shou finished speaking, there was a bang of a gunshot, and a bad premonition immediately rose in his heart.

The mage was shot and then collapsed stiffly, and just like that, the Hunter’s Guild lost their only mage.

"This..." The entire Hunter’s Guild was stunned; they felt deeply remorseful and anxious, regretting their negligence at a crucial moment in not protecting their mage, which made the situation dire.

Gu Fan frowned, not expecting Blood King’s retaliation to come so fast. This time, it might not be Organization X that was annihilated, but the Hunter’s Guild instead.

The situation took a sudden and drastic turn, and many in the Hunter’s Guild looked towards Lie Shou. They were afraid, knowing that this battle seemed unwinnable. They wondered if there was any point in continuing to fight.

Lie Shou turned to Gu Fan and said indifferently: "Gu Fan, are you here to join us against Organization X?"

"Rest assured, I won’t abandon you, unless you want to beat a retreat yourselves." After saying that, Gu Fan charged towards the direction of the gunshot, adding: "It’s okay if you wish to retreat, I never counted on you anyway."

"What do you mean, looking down on us?" The members of the Hunter’s Guild, unwilling to accept this, all followed Gu Fan’s pace.

This was an excellen opportunity to eliminate Organization X and deal with Blood King; Gu Fan could not miss it. He wanted to eliminate this troublesome group of enemies once and for all because as long as Blood King existed, vampires would never be able to choose the path that Gu Fan hoped for.

However, in Gu Fan’s heart, the Hunter’s Guild was also best described as a trouble.
