If what Vivian said was true, Lily would not be in any danger. Of course, there was no guarantee of her freedom.
Werewolves were a solitary race. Most of them would not stay with their pack once they reached adulthood. This led to the rapid decline of the werewolves after the end of the Mythological Era on this planet. They were one of the most scattered unusual races. The Ebben family was a special case among the werewolves. They were a group of werewolves with a sense of family. Even after the end of the Mythological Era, the human church and the demon hunters had gained the upper hand for a long time, they still maintained close ties with their pack. Today, they were the only surviving large family among the werewolves.
No one knew how the upper echelons of the Ebben family were organized. What Vivian knew about them was only limited to their external activities. The tribe had been working hard to reunite the scattered family members. Their original base was in Europe and Latin America, and they had not left the area until a hundred years ago.
"They are a bunch of strange fellows. They are a little smarter than the average werewolf, but not much," Vivian commented as she introduced the Ebben family. "They know that unity is strength, but they are stupid enough to try to rebuild the Mythological Era with what little power they have. Tsk tsk, even Fenrir was stewed by the demon hunters. They still don't know when to stop."
"What will happen to Lily if they take her away?" This was the question that concerned Hao Ren the most at the moment.
"They will force her to join them." Vivian pouted. "That's how the werewolves are. They don't know how to be tactful, even to their own people. I'm afraid the Ebbens have already considered all the scattered werewolves as their targets. They have the advantage in numbers and will definitely resort to forceful methods. Doggie, that idiot, won't be a problem for now because she's still on the same side in the eyes of the two werewolves. However, when the two sides lay their cards on the table, a fight will definitely break out. With that idiot's half-baked abilities … she'll probably be beaten up so badly that even her own mother won't recognize her. "
When Hao Ren heard this, he broke out in a cold sweat. He quickly lowered his head and continued to look for clues on the city map.
According to Vivian's experience, the werewolf who used the black mist had used the Ebben family's talent to take Lily away. The black mist could not travel too far, so Lily should still be within the city limits. Hao Ren's search was limited to this area. He turned on the MDT and asked it to project a city map. He then searched for more than 100 targets using the keyword "Hao Yun". Among the 100 targets, there were more than a dozen related to warehouses, factories, and other large facilities.
Hao Ren could only feel lucky that Lily was not locked up in the Guangming XX factory. That name was even worse.
"By the way, don't you have a signal tracking function?" Hao Ren knocked on the MDT's shell as he checked the suspected locations one by one. "When Lily called just now, why didn't you just track the signal?"
The MDT said matter-of-factly, "I was sleeping just now. How can you blame others for not remembering? I'm a tool, you're the user. You didn't turn on your phone and you're blaming the alarm. Don't you feel ashamed? "
Hao Ren was speechless. He lowered his head and continued to work. Hao Ren thought about sending an SOS to Raven 12345. After all, this was an emergency at work. However, the thought only flashed through his mind for a moment before he tossed it aside. This was his responsibility, and he had to take responsibility for it. After all, he was Lily's guardian now. It would be embarrassing if he asked his superior for help when there was an emergency.
"In the city and the surrounding districts and counties, there is an electrical appliance factory, two logistics companies, two warehouses, and six or seven other unreliable units in the name of 'Haoyun'. The place that Lily mentioned seems to be an abandoned warehouse, or it could be a warehouse built by a factory itself, or simply a factory that has been emptied … Well, the electrical appliance factory can be ruled out. It's still in operation, so it's not an abandoned factory. Similarly, excluding the logistics company, there are still three targets left."
The three targets were all abandoned units that could not be found on the internet. Fortunately, the MDT was able to collect information about them from the corners of the internet. These three places all fit the description of an "abandoned warehouse". So, there was no way to continue the investigation.
"Let's go and have a look at all of them." Vivian glanced at the map and found that the three places were far away from each other. One was in the remote old city area of the city, one was in the northern suburbs, and the last one was in another town dozens of kilometers away. All of them belonged to the kind of stepmother plots that had been abandoned for years and had been forgotten by the development plan. "It's really in line with the plot of the movie. It's not easy to find people hiding in these places."
"It's quite far away." Hao Ren looked at the map and was worried. "I should buy a car first. I'm working for God. I don't even have a means of transportation."
"I'll send my bats over." Vivian waved her hand and summoned three little bats. She then looked at the sun outside. Her expression did not look too good. "Tsk, it's a big sun. The weather forecast is not accurate at all. I'm afraid the bats will be roasted half to death if they fly over. That idiot owes me a big favor."
The three little bats circled around Vivian and then flew to the window in a heroic manner, ready to welcome the bright sun outside. Hao Ren heard Vivian's words and suddenly remembered something. He quickly shouted, "Wait, I have an idea!" He then ran to Lily's room and took out a bottle of sunscreen.
"That girl bought this on a whim two days ago. She didn't use it at all. It's just right for your bats." Hao Ren happily unscrewed the cap of the sunscreen and waved Vivian's bats to land on the table. The vampire girl was immediately stunned. "You have such a broad mind … Tsk, it's so cold!"
The bats and Vivian shared the same senses. When Hao Ren applied the sunscreen on the bats, Vivian immediately sensed it. She let out a soft and sweet moan. Hao Ren's hand trembled and he almost dropped the bottle on the table. "Don't overreact …"
"I've never used something so expensive in my life." Vivian looked resentful. "The first time I applied sunscreen was on my own bats … Hey, don't put too much on them. They won't be able to fly if you put too much on them!"
After a while, Hao Ren was done. The three little bats with sunscreen flew out of the window excitedly and flew in three different directions. They were much faster than normal bats. The slowest one could fly at least eighty to ninety miles per hour. Hao Ren looked at the three little black dots that quickly disappeared and sighed. "I have such a broad mind."
Vivian did not reply. She was already immersed in the shared senses of the three bats. She was fully focused on sensing everything within the three bats' sensing range. The city was like a three-dimensional model in her mind. Soon, the first bat arrived at its nearest destination. It was the abandoned logistics company warehouse in the city.
The warehouse was empty. The first location was ruled out.
The remaining two bats flew towards the satellite town dozens of kilometers away and the northern suburbs on the other side of the city.
"Huh …" Vivian suddenly woke up from her state of concentration and exclaimed softly. Hao Ren immediately came up to her. "Found it?"
"One of the bats died." Vivian was puzzled. "I didn't know what happened. One of the bats suddenly stopped moving. It was the one flying toward the northern suburbs. It disappeared when it passed by the city center. "
"Could it be a werewolf?"
"No, werewolves can't fly. They usually can't deal with my bats." Vivian frowned. "Maybe it crashed into a transformer and was electrocuted. This kind of accident happens when you fly too fast … These troublesome things that humans have created in the past two years are really annoying. I've crashed into them a few times. Say, do you have any more sunscreen? I'll put another one. "
Hao Ren passed the sunscreen to her. "You do it yourself. I'm putting sunscreen on a bat. It's weird to see your expression change."
Vivian rolled her eyes at Hao Ren and lowered her head to apply sunscreen on the bat. The fourth "scout" soon set off.
"It's really in the northern suburbs!" Vivian finally found a clue. "There's the smell of the big dog!"
(The backstage lag took more than ten minutes …)
