The Giants of Light in the Marvel Universe

Only then did all the vampires suddenly realize that a figure had appeared in the middle of the conference table in front of them at some point.It was a rather handsome-looking man with a pale complexion.He wore dark black leather boots, a large cloak, and was dressed in black, with the elegance of a medieval aristocrat.

A vampire subconsciously stood up.

"who are you?"

Talos smiled slightly: "If I were you, I would show a little respect. After all, this is not just any vampire. This is the legendary 'that' earl."

The vampire elders thought of something, and their expressions suddenly changed.The image of this man, this kingly aura as if suppressed by blood, this elegant demeanor and handsome appearance, everything seems to point to some almost forgotten legend.

That is the most famous legend among vampires, a figure who is almost mythical among vampires.It's just that he's been out of sight for so long that even modern vampires have dismissed his story as a fabricated rumor, a myth that never existed.Even the vampire elders had always thought so.

Someone's tone changed: "Taros, don't you?"

"Yes." The female vampire smiled, "Remember when I said I went to the desert to find a lost legend? I never got the chance to tell you, but I succeeded. And now, he is standing in front of you."

The vampire elders gasped one after another.

Dracula, the rumored vampire, was even once suspected to be the ancestor of all vampires.

"You are the ancestor"

Dracula looked at the elders indifferently, and said calmly: "No, I am not your origin, this is a misunderstanding in your historical records. But I am indeed who you think I am. I have been asleep for many years, and Now I'm back, here to solve your troubles. So now, tell me"

The Vampire Count narrowed his eyes and lowered his voice.

"Where is the 'Blade', or 'Sunwalker' as you call him?"

Chapter 55 Here to Help

"Huh? It's a good shot, isn't it?"

Richard was sitting in the office, flipping through a new set of photos of Spider-Woman that Jessica had just handed to him, and couldn't help being a little surprised.

The photo Jessica handed him last time was only a small black dot floating between existence and disappearance at the edge of the lens, but this time the photo suddenly became a full-body ultra-clear portrait with various Handsome ose, looking at the effect of this picture, the body ratio of Spider-Woman seems to have been slightly edited?

Also, the picture quality is really touching. Compared with the previous one, it is like replacing a 270 small movie with a Blu-ray original picture. It’s like a shotgun for a cannon.

After flipping through the photos, Richard looked up at Jessica suspiciously: "I just talked about this photo issue last time, and you got it done so quickly? The work efficiency is quite high."

"Because I am serious, responsible and down-to-earth at work?" Jessica thought for a while, "Boss, I said that I really put a lot of effort into taking this photo. In such a hot day, I had to climb to the flagpole of the building, just to stand there. Waiting for Spider-Woman to swing by. Do you know how hot it was yesterday? A full forty degrees"

"In fact, it was less than thirty degrees yesterday." Richard said that there was no fluctuation in his heart, and he even wanted to complain a little.You climbed onto the flagpole to take pictures, and they jumped down to pose for you?What about cheating ghosts?

Richard glanced at her sideways: "Okay, I see, I will consider giving you a salary increase."

After talking so much, don't you just want to raise your salary?At worst, tell the aunt in the canteen to add two more chicken legs to you?

Jessica was satisfied.She really feels that the economy is a bit tight recently. Although the salary offered by the newspaper is not low in all fairness, and the rent is even given a discount by the boss, but she has been deducted a lot of wages.

"But let's be honest." Richard put down the photo, crossed his fingers and propped his chin, and looked at Jessica. "You hooked up with her, didn't you?"

"Huh? Who?" Jessica began to play dumb.

"I just thought about it again. I seem to have to reconsider the salary increase."

Jessica: ""

Row!You are ruthless!Worthy of being an evil capitalist!

"Well, I was just joking." Jessica spread her hands, "I wanted to tell you."

Richard nodded with a smile, indicating that I believed it at the time.

"It's true. I did hook up with Spider-Woman, and I also explained your situation to her, Boss, and we reached some agreements. This is the part I'm going to tell you. Well, how should I say it?" Jessica He made a strange expression, hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "Uh, forget it, anyway, you will find out tonight."

Richard raised his eyebrows suspiciously.

That night.

Although Jessica has been vaccinated to some extent, Richard couldn't help but twitched when he saw Jessica appearing at the door of the house with a little blond girl carrying a big bag and a little bit embarrassed. .

"Boss, this is Gwen; Gwen, this is the Mr. Li I mentioned." Jessica began to act as the introducer, "Uh, do you know each other?"

The little blonde girl seemed a little nervous: "Hello, I'm Gwen Kelly. I heard from Jessica that I can share a bedroom with her, right?"

Richard knew that her real name should be Gwen Stacy, and now this is probably a fake identity she made up for herself, but he didn't care about it.

Richard understood instantly.Jessica made a good plan. If Gwen lives with her, not only will her photography work be much easier, but more importantly, Gwen can also share her rent and reduce her pressure.Boldly speculate, Jessica might use inviting Gwen to live with her as a bargaining chip to offset part of Gwen's commission on the photo revenue.

Jessica winked at Richard and pulled him aside to talk.

"Look, boss, this is what I wanted to tell you before, she is the girl in tights flying around on the roof."

"I guess." Richard looked at her, "I'm even more curious about how you fooled her."

"I told her about you having superpowers too, and that you rented me a bedroom at below market rate. And she happened to be having a little difficulty with housing, so I offered that maybe I could share it with her. For a moment, I think you are such a nice boss, you will definitely not mind, right?"

"Mind? Of course I don't mind." Richard sneered, "I might as well rent out the rest of the rooms and convert it into a staff dormitory."

Jessica said helplessly: "Look, boss, you said before that we need an exclusive superhero, didn't I just bring one back?"

Richard gave Gwen a sideways look.

"So she doesn't even look like an adult?"

"Well, she should be an adult, at least she said so."

It wasn't Jessica talking nonsense, it was exactly what Gwen had said that night when they first met the Hands-On.
