On the spaceship, Helios was toying with the red vampire core. This heart core was the one that the church had offered up, Herod's core.
He squinted his eyes and exclaimed, “This thing is truly wonderful! It contains a powerful energy within. We can extract all the energy in this core with our equipment. After amplifying it at our energy transformation station, it can provide more than a year's worth of energy for a city in our Divine Realm. Tsk! This is awesome.”
Right then, Lunar rushed out of the cockpit and said, “Lord Helios, we have a problem.”
Helios looked at her, puzzled. “What's wrong?”
With a serious expression, Lunar said, “Something has happened to Sirius. It seems like he's been captured by humans. I've sent messages to his communicator, but there's been no response. Moreover, there's a record of his communicator being operated haphazardly. I have reason to suspect that after he was captured by humans, some human scientists took an interest in his communicator, attempting to decipher it.”
A flash of anger flickered in Helios's eyes. “How dare you, humble earthlings! How dare you capture a Demigod? Get ready. Switch spaceship to autonomous mode and come with me to save Sirius.”
Lunar said, “Yes!”
A while later, a beam of black light illuminated the highway on the outskirts of Brimmopolis.
Immediately after, two figures appeared. They were none other than Helios and Lunar.
Helios stood tall at two meters, with golden hair and emerald eyes. He had transformed into the epitome of a handsome man from Adrune. There was no helping it, as he had dealings with the Curia in Adrune every decade and was mostly in contact with people from Adrunian.
Therefore, he had to take on the appearance of an Adrunian when he disguised himself as an earthling.
Lunar was no exception. She transformed into an Adrunian beauty who stood at a height of nearly two meters. At the same time, her figure was on par with international models.
They used their communicators to pinpoint the location Sirius lost contact and the current position of his communicator. They then proceeded on foot.
Their pace, seemingly slow, was in fact quite fast.
It was just that a tall and gorgeous couple was bound to attract attention as they were walking down the highway.
In the next second, a red Ferrari whizzed past them.
Helios and Lunar halted in their tracks as they stared at the red sports car speeding away. They found themselves intrigued by the earthlings' mode of transportation.
The red Ferrari, surprisingly, circled back.
Three flamboyantly dressed young men came down.
The young man leading the group was wearing a Patek Philippe watch, clearly indicating he was a wealthy young man.
