Chapter 272 They are demons!

In a bar decorated in the style of the old era, the mahogany wood carvings are dazzling, giving the place a unique sense of time.

A wide variety of drinks are placed on the spacious bar, which is dazzling and dimly lit, creating a mysterious and romantic atmosphere.

"Handsome man, are you interested in a drink?"

Under the big golden waves is a charming face, and the flaming red lips exude a certain charm that makes people want to stop.

"Sorry, I have a wife!"

The man sat at the corner of the bar, watching the woman in front of him posing with an indifferent gaze.

"Haha, I didn't expect that the majestic Magneto would be reduced to such a situation now."

Faced with the man's rejection, the woman smiled softly and sat beside the man.

The man turned out to be Eric, who had disappeared for a long time.

"Riven Darkholm?"

The drunkenness in Eric's eyes, who frowned and was dressed in work clothes and had a simple look, instantly dissipated. He stared at the posing woman in front of him, and he immediately guessed the true face of the woman in front of him.

"That's not your style, Raven!"

Looking at the completely unfamiliar face, Eric knitted his brows together and said in a deep voice.

Noticing that the man in front of her seemed a little impatient, the woman smiled, and then her appearance changed. A white woman with a blond ponytail and a delicate appearance appeared in front of him.

"Eric, we need you..."

Raven's face, whose appearance had changed, was no longer as charming as before, but instead spoke with some urgency.

"I have a wife to take care of..."

Magneto's face was full of determination.

"Besides, haven't we already failed? Sebastian is too dangerous. I have to think about my family!"

"...But can you watch Sebastian destroy the world?"

Raven's tone was a bit unwilling.

"Destroy the world? Just him? Hahaha, you guys don't understand at all. Someone has already noticed that guy. Soon, someone will punish him without us taking action!"

Eric laughed heartily, and there was some kind of crystal luster in the corners of his eyes, which seemed to be tears, with a certain bitterness.

"Are you talking about Yongye?"

Raven said solemnly.

"That's right, it's Yong Ye. I believe you also know them. It's absolutely no problem to deal with Sebastian with their strength. I even think it's better for you to join them directly. This can also solve the current problem with the government. Disputes, get some protection.”

Eric looked at the bar full of riotous dancers with some kind of memory in his eyes.

"We don't believe in Evernight!"

Raven's face was a little downcast, and there was some lingering fear in his eyes: "You know, Eric, those guys in Yongye are not human at all. They feed on humans and even the blood of mutants. They can... Gain power from the blood of mutants, and each of their elders is stained with the blood of hundreds of lives! They... are demons!"

"Haha, I helped you last time, helping you take back the White Queen from Yong Ye! But you, you changed hands and let her escape again."

Eric did not take up the topic above, but said angrily.

"That matter was indeed something we didn't do carefully enough. We didn't expect Sebastian to actually have a teleportation user...

This time they will come back again, Eric, we are not alarmist, Charles found the opportunity to eavesdrop on Sebastian's secret.

They plan to control nuclear weapons and completely dominate the world. We cannot rely on those non-human beings! "

Raven spoke very fast, her eyes fixed on Eric, trying to make the man in front of her understand the current situation.

"..."

Putting down his glass, Eric ignored Raven who looked disappointed, walked slowly, and left the bar.

Under the silent night, the bright moon illuminated the road ahead. Eric was hesitant in his heart. He had his family on one side and his enemies on the other. He didn't know how to face the current situation.

Unconsciously, he finally returned home, with a smile on his face and his eyes looking at the woman embracing him.

"Meredith!"

"You're back, Eric!"

The two hugged each other tightly, but Eric's body suddenly stiffened, and he slowly pushed the woman away.

"Meredith, you go in first..."

His eyes were fixed on the woman, and his voice was laced with a hint of uncontrollable anger.

Meredith obviously realized something, looked at Eric with a worried look, and then rushed into the room.

A chopstick-sized steel bar hidden on his body slipped from his cuff. Eric turned around suddenly and stared at the figure hiding in the darkness.

"come out!"

Click, click, click...

Wearing a suit and a hat, with a hint of unexplainable meaning on his face, Charles walked out of the dark alleyway under Eric's surprised gaze.

And standing next to him was Raven, who had just parted ways.

"I said, I don't plan to have anything to do with Sebastian anymore!"

Eric put the steel bars back into his cuffs and made a decisive move.

"Eric, what made you like this?"

Charles frowned tightly. As a good friend of Eric, he did not believe that Eric would be affected by the last failure.

"..."

Eric was silent, but the originally closed door behind him slowly opened.

"Dad...who are they?"

The crisp and elegant voice instantly changed Charles' expression. As for Raven on the side, he couldn't help but cover his mouth and looked at the two little people walking out of the room with some disbelief.

As for Eric's wife Meredith, she looked at them angrily.

"You have a kid? Eric!"

Charles softened his facial expression and looked at the boy and girl behind Eric with a loving gaze.

"Meredith came to me with two children... So you understand, right? Charles, I can't do anything about it anymore. I have people to protect, and I can't lose my children anymore... "

Slowly closing his eyes to calm the shock in his heart, Eric spoke to his friend in a pleading tone.

"... Eric, maybe we both need to talk in private."

Walking forward, Charles rubbed the heads of the two children with a smile. He did not investigate these two children who might have special abilities, but simply acted as an elder.

Seeing Charles' actions, Eric motioned to his wife to bring the child into the room, and then followed Charles to the side.

"Eric, I came to you out of necessity. You have been targeted by Sebastian..."

A bombshell was dropped directly, and Charles' words made Eric's expression change drastically.

"Don't be impatient yet!"

After stopping Eric's urge to run away with his wife and daughter, Charles looked serious.

"Why? Why doesn't that guy let me go?"

Eric roared angrily. He had obviously made concessions and even hid himself, but bad things still happened.

"I was also surprised at first, why did that guy notice you? But now I understand..."

Charles looked at Eric's home, the meaning in his eyes was self-evident.

"He wants my child?"

The pupils shrank violently, and the anger in Eric's heart could no longer be suppressed. The memories of his childhood came to his mind. Sebastian seemed to have some kind of obsession with mutants, and as the existence that he valued most, His children are bound to attract that guy's attention.

"You still have a chance now, Eric!"

Noticing the urgency in his friend's heart, Charles quickly comforted and persuaded him.

"From the information I found, that guy doesn't seem to know what your child is like. He only learned about it from the White Queen. What you need to do now is to keep your child away from you!"

"..."

Gripping his hair hard, Eric walked back and forth. Finally, with reluctance in his eyes, he walked into the house under the watchful eyes of Charles and Raven.

After a long time, Meredith took her luggage and disappeared into the night with her two children.

"You can just let them leave so easily?"

Charles was a little surprised.

"Well, I asked her to leave by herself. I don't know where she is going. You know the reason... Now I need you to do one more thing for me!"

Eric looked at the direction where his wife and children were leaving, with a certain determination in his eyes.

"What's up?"

"Help me bring a message to Yong Ye... Let them take care of my wife and children!"

"Yongye? You really have something to do with them."

Charles' eyes flashed with suddenness.

His memory went back to the operation to capture the White Queen. That time Yong Ye captured the White Queen before them and happened to be encountered by them. It was Eric who stood up and stopped the fight between them and Yong Ye. There was a conflict, and one person fought with members of the Evernight Squad. Both sides seemed to leave room for leeway, and in the end, they handed the White Queen over to Eric.

From that time, Charles had some speculations in his mind, and now, Eric's behavior of handing over his wife and daughter to Yong Ye has proved this even more.

"God, are you from Yongye?"

Raven on the side couldn't help but exclaimed, her expression mixed with uncontrollable surprise.

This is a normal phenomenon. After learning from Charles that Yongye was sucking the blood of mutants, the image of the other party has always been similar to a terrifying monster in Raven's eyes.

As their friend, Eric is actually inextricably related to the monster of Eternal Night. The impact of this directly shattered Raven's long-standing view of Eric.

"Well, I have an elder brother...he is the head of Yongye Company."

Eric's face showed a look of recollection.

"The Grand Duke of Evernight!"

At this moment, even Charles couldn't help but look shocked.
