Chapter 265 - Attack Of The Blood Devil
Chapter 265 Attack Of The Blood Devil
Bryan thought that his enemies were coming for him.
In the siege that had just taken place, he had discovered that the bounty hunters had the intention to kill him and his followers.
The dark creatures went all out to attack him. Fortunately, Alec helped Bryan to escape. Otherwise, he might not have been given a chance to survive.
When Bryan saw the pursuers, he raged. He wanted to know who had the intention of killing him.
If it was Emerald Grand Duchy, he would definitely take revenge.
After all, the last name of the Red Fire Kingdom’s royal clan was Red Flame.
Marquis Scarlet Flame had the same bloodline as the royal clan.
The kingdom had been built 800 years ago by a pair of brothers.
The elder brother became the King and changed his last name to Red Flame while his younger brother became the prince and changed his last name to Scarlet Flame.
According to the noble’s regulation in the Human empires, a prince must be at least an Epic titled professional.
If no Epic titled professional appeared for two generations, the noble family would be demoted!
The Scarlet Flame clan lost their veteran and young warriors in wars, causing a severe drain in talents. The clan leader was only an Advanced professional. Hence, the family was demoted twice.
Bryan Scarlet Flame was his clan’s new hope. He was the Red Fire Kingdom’s genius professional.
Killing Bryan was like killing a prince of the Red Fire Kingdom.
William tossed his black robe away. He wielded his sword in his right hand and charged towards the pursuers.
Diablo and Burned Cinder followed William while Wells stood guard over the wounded Bryan, who was unable to move.
“Kill them. Don’t leave any survivors!”
Eight figures appeared out from the surrounding trees. They charged towards William and his companions.
“Why are there so few of them?” William was curious. But when he activated his insight, he was astonished.
Their pursuers were two Legendary, three Epic, and three master Advanced vampires.
“Blood Shadow Assassins?” William inhaled a gust of cold air. He did not expect to encounter the elite assassins of the Dark City.
“Hehe, leave this observant lad to me, while the rest of you take care of his companions,” said a slender and tall vampire, licking his lips in a disgusting way. He transformed into tens of bats and flew towards William.
William looked at him and smiled as he said, “Blood Shadow King, Blood Devil?”
William was worried. The vampires had an innate ability to control blood.
And this ability was most powerful in the hands of the Blood Devil.
The Blood Devil’s ability to control blood was very destructive, just like Diablo’s ability to control metals. In a group battle, the Blood Devil could make his enemies turn into pools of blood.
But William was not intimidated.
The Blood Devil also had the teleportation endowment.
He could keep teleporting during battle. He was a natural assassin!
His teleportation endowment would usually confer a fatal hit. After using it, the victim must be killed. Otherwise, the victim would be prepared for future attacks.
The players did not have this piece of information at the beginning of the game.
William watched the Blood Devil transform into bats. He immediately activated his Thunder shield and started retreating. He broke several trees but did not slow down his pace. He wanted to get away from the bats so that he would not be subjected to the blood explosion attack!
William said in a low voice, “Be careful. This group of vampires is very strong. Wells, leave with the Prince.”
“Fortunately, I’ve brought enough magic scrolls,” Burned Cinder grasped his Dragon-slayer blade with both hands. When his fire battle energy engulfed his body, his blade became as hot as molten lava.
The blade was also emitting flames, giving Burned Cinder an awesome look!
The enemy who stood before Burned Cinder was a Legendary vampire. He transformed into numerous bats that charged at Burned Cinder from all directions.
Burned Cinder ferociously roared, and a fire pillar engulfed him. He surveyed the surrounding bats before swinging rapidly with his flaming blade. The bats were turned into ash.
But he had not inflicted much damage.
The Legendary vampire had dodged away from Burned Cinder’s rapid blade swings.
Bryan was sprawled on Wells’s back. He was puzzled. “Am I a prince? I’m the Marquis’ son. I have the royal family’s bloodline, so he’s correct.”
“Prince? The Lord of the City of Dawn?” The Blood Devil glanced at the wounded Bryan and was shocked.
He gave an order to two vampires to bypass Burned Cinder and kill Bryan.
What about the pointed ears of a Half-Elf?
The vampires had not seen an Elf before, so he did not know.
“Gosh, gosh, please run quickly. They’re here to kill me.” Bryan was cursing the group of vampires to himself. He believed that they were the assassins of Emerald Grand Duchy.
Wells carried Bryan and ran towards the north. He used Bryan as a shield for his rear to deflect all attacks.
Swish, swish, swish!
Bryan was hit on the buttocks by three consecutive attacks. He wailed in great pain. He felt that his butthole had been completely ruined.
No matter how Bryan coaxed Wells, Wells would only reply, “I’ve short legs, so I can’t run fast.”
There was no other choice.
Wells had used all of his Physical Strength to carry Bryan.
Moreover, Bryan acted as a good shield for Wells’ back. The attack of the group of vampires had an effect akin to scratching one’s back. No damage was inflicted on Wells.
Wells managed to form a tough layer of soil to protect Bryan’s back. But Wells ran slower and slower.
The fighting continued.
Diablo did not have to bother with the blood control of the vampires once he used a magic scroll. He pummeled all of them.
William had given Diablo a space ring, so he could summon an unlimited Metal Storm.
It was because the space ring was filled with metals and even rare metals. He was enjoying repeatedly summoning the metal storm!
All plants and animals within a radius of ten meters had been shredded. Moreover, the metals could be reused again!
Diablo challenged three vampires, and then he proceeded to assist Burned Cinder.
But it was an awkward situation for William!
He was using up the magic scrolls that could negate the blood control of the vampires. But the Blood Devil was powerful, and he was diminishing the magic of the scrolls.
“I can’t drag the battle any longer. Even if I can’t kill him, I’ve to injure him. I’m running out of scrolls. I don’t wish to die here.” William had a tough hide and excellent equipment, but he was unable to defend against the blood magic.
William was unable to sacrifice monsters to help him recover his Health Points.
William did not avoid fighting. He activated the Power of the Saint Spirit and increased all his attributes by 23%. His speed dramatically increased. Then, he charged towards the attacking Blood Devil and slashed nine times!
The Blood Devil transformed into numerous bats to evade the sword energy. He then transformed back into his human form and made a grabbing motion at William.
Bang!
William felt the blood vessels in his body exploding. His throat was flooding with fresh blood, but he swallowed it down. He quickly tore another magic scroll.
Then he hid behind a large tree.
Blood Devil was frustrated. Was it useful to hide behind the tree when they were both Advanced professionals?
But at this instance, a silent Ghost Arrow shot towards the Blood Devil’s face.
The Blood Devil was surprised. He leaned back, but his scalp had been grazed by the arrow.
William, who had been engulfed by the Saint Spirit, appeared before the Blood Devil.
The Blood Devil was astonished!
He was forced to activate his teleportation endowment to retreat to another spot that was ten meters away.
But, William preempted the Blood Devil. He extended the great soul hand and grabbed hold of the Blood Devil.
“Fast speed, high attack value, powerful magic, but lightweight. It is the greatest weakness of the vampires.” William made use of the Hand of Soul to pull the Blood Devil closer.
They were now face-to-face.
Swish!
William slashed with his Thunder blade.
It was extremely dazzling.
But the Blood Devil transformed into multiple bats to evade the blow.
At the same time, a visible Soul Shock Wave emanated out from William.
A few small bats were hit in mid-air while another few dissipated. Only one bat transformed back into a human who collapsed to the ground looking dizzy.
William made use of the chance to dash over. He activated Dawn Assault. He was going to butt his head at the Blood Devil.
But, the dazed Blood Devil vanished.
And he reappeared behind the running William. The vampire thrust a crimson shortsword at William’s back.
The attack went through.
Brilliant sparks flew all over the place.
But the shortsword did not manage to pierce into the heart. It had been blocked by the heartguard of the Fire Dragon’s Scale. The shortsword only managed to penetrate the armor and the inner armor on William’s back.
Such a back attack inflicted 3,000 damage on William!
The Blood Devil was taken aback. He tried to stab with his shortsword again.
But this time, the Sword of Hegni, which William had been holding, emitted brilliance!
Boom!
Black Destructive Sword Energy spread out in all directions, and everything within a radius of a few hundred meters was turned into ash.
Even the Blood Devil, who was behind William, could not evade the sword energy. He had been penetrated by numerous sword energy rays and was sent flying a hundred meters away.
But William did not stop. He had to kill the Blood Devil first.
He readied his bow.
Swish!
Countless Thunder arrows rained upon the Blood Devil’s spot.
But, the Blood Devil did not dodge. Instead, he stood up and waved his hand lightly.
The Thunder arrows vanished…
William was unfazed. He inhaled deeply. Then he wielded both his swords and charged forward.
The Blood Devil did not use the teleportation endowment as it consumed a lot of magic power. He charged towards William.
Both of them were on par with each other.
The Blood Devil knew that once William used up all his magic scrolls, William would be dead.
But William was sinisterly smiling. The Blood Devil did not know that his blood recovery rate had tremendously slowed down.
William was gloating. Did the Blood Devil not know that William had the Sword of Hegni?
The Sword of Hegni could diminish the Blood Devil’s blood.
“Let’s see how much blood I can suck from you, Blood Devil!”
