As long as Lord Azazel was interested, handing this vampire over to him would surely earn his favor. It was not impossible for him to rise another step.
He reined in his thoughts. In reality, only an instant had passed.
"Take down this vampire. I will request rewards for you from Lord Azazel."
The Fallen Angel raised his left hand, staring at the girl before issuing his orders to the Lost Priests below, as though he had already captured her and was on his way to claim credit from the Governor.
These Lost Priests had all been equipped with top-tier Artificial Artifacts. Once specially configured, they could burn away their lives to unleash the power of Ultimate-class fighters, or even quasi-demon kings.
Even he would find it difficult to resist such power.
Now it depended on how this vampire would deal with it...
"Yes, Lord Fallen Angel!"
The Lost Priests below had no idea that the Artificial Artifacts in their hands carried enormous side effects, ones that could even take their lives directly.
Hearing that the Fallen Angel would request rewards for them from that Fallen Angel Governor, every one of them became incomparably excited.
The Lost Priest wielding a flute-shaped Artificial Artifact merely blew softly into it, and a vast number of demonic beasts pounced toward Miss Moonlit, sealing off every path of escape from all directions.
This Artificial Artifact had been Azazel's attempt to replicate a Sacred Gear capable of creating demonic beasts. Unfortunately... he had failed.
However, after modifying it based on a top-tier Sacred Gear that summoned demonic beasts, he had created an Artificial Artifact with immense side effects that could summon large numbers of mid- and high-ranking demonic beasts.
The ability to summon vast numbers of mid- and high-ranking demonic beasts was undoubtedly extremely powerful, far surpassing many genuine Sacred Gears. Unfortunately, every summoning forced the user to pay an enormous price.
Yet this particular user did not know that at all...
It was worth mentioning that not just anyone could use Artificial Artifacts. They required a certain level of talent and specific conditions.
Just like Sacred Gears, the same Artificial Artifact displayed entirely different levels of power in different hands.
The fact that this Lost Priest could so easily summon so many powerful demonic beasts showed that even without this Artificial Artifact, he could have grown strong with ease.
Yet such an outstanding talent had been directly treated as a disposable tool by this Fallen Angel.
"Die!"
Facing the swarm of demonic beasts, Miss Moonlit did not hesitate in the slightest. She raised her chainsaw and charged forward. With every sweeping arc of the saw, demonic beasts were sliced apart one after another.
Seeing that these demonic beasts placed no pressure on the vampire at all, the other Lost Priests also made their moves. Although Miss Moonlit's display was savage, these fanatics had no fear of death.
To them, dying in battle for the Fallen Angel was an honor. Thoroughly brainwashed, they believed that after death, their souls would be reincarnated as noble Fallen Angels.
But that was impossible!
The devils now possessed reincarnation technology. The angels, who had lost God and the Angel Reincarnation Pool, were also following closely behind. Only the Fallen Angels relied purely on angels falling from grace to increase their numbers.
In truth, with Fallen Angel Technology, replicating the reincarnation technology of the Devil Pieces would not have been difficult at all. It was simply that Azazel felt there was no need. Let nature take its course.
There was nothing wrong with the Fallen Angels disappearing altogether...
"Unforgivable!"
Crimson blood energy erupted from Miss Moonlit's body. She violently smashed the massive chainsaw into the ground, instantly splitting the earth and sending dust and sand soaring into the sky.
At that moment, blood mist poured from Miss Moonlit's eyes as she completely entered a berserk state.
With that strike, she directly cleared away every demonic beast and attack before her.
"Ha ha ha ha!!"
That familiar yandere laughter rang out. Miss Moonlit split the chainsaw in her hand into two, instantly passed through the bodies of the demonic beasts before her, and appeared in front of a Lost Priest before cutting him apart with one chainsaw!
Blood immediately splattered everywhere...
"End this quickly!"
"We cannot drag this out too long. If we attract those devils, it will be troublesome. Things will become complicated."
"All of you, forcibly enter Balance Breaker!!"
The Six-Winged Fallen Angel in midair noticed the change, and his expression turned extremely ugly. This vampire truly was extraordinary. Now he could only choose to sacrifice these Lost Priests.
Once these Artificial Artifacts with side effects entered Balance Breaker, it meant their users were practically dead.
But as long as they captured the vampire before them, it would be worth it.
He did not dare delay for too long either. This was devil territory, after all. His uninvited arrival had already violated the peace treaty signed by the Three Factions.
That was why he had prepared a barrier beforehand, luring the Blood Moon Princess into it.
"Balance Breaker!!"
Hearing the Six-Winged Fallen Angel's words, the Lost Priests activated their Balance Breakers without the slightest hesitation.
The first was the Lost Priest who summoned demonic beasts. The instant he activated his Balance Breaker, his body began aging rapidly, transforming into that of an eighty- or ninety-year-old man, as though he would die completely the next second.
Moreover, this side effect could not be healed. Even adding to his lifespan would be useless.
It was not that all Artificial Artifacts had such terrible side effects. It was simply that the Artificial Artifacts in their hands were all failed products or deliberately designed that way.
However, having paid such a huge price, the results were excellent.
A Quasi-Demon King-class demonic beast was summoned and flew directly toward Miss Moonlit.
As for the other Lost Priests' Balance Breakers, some were clad in armor, some became giants over ten meters tall, and one even transformed directly into a man of fire.
The power they unleashed at that moment was at least Ultimate-class. Some had even reached Quasi-Demon King level, while the strongest possessed power approaching that of a Demon King.
"Ha ha ha ha..."
Faced with so many powerful opponents, Miss Moonlit, still in her berserk state, remained utterly fearless. She showed no intention of yielding and charged straight toward the nearest big target—the giant!
This Lost Priest's Artificial Artifact Balance Breaker was a massive rock giant, its body overflowing with explosive strength. A single punch could scrap even a heavily armored tank.
Facing the rock giant's fist, the girl leaped into the air, lightning gathering around her chainsaw as she smashed straight at it.
The chainsaw collided with the rock giant's fist, and its fist exploded instantly. The wildly spinning chainsaw tore through its arm... forcibly sawing off the enormous limb.
Just as Miss Moonlit was about to use the momentum to cut off its head as well, the armor-clad Lost Priest swung an eighteen-meter-long greatsword at her.
The fire man and the Quasi-Demon King-class demonic beast were equally unwilling to fall behind, attacking at the same time...
Miss Moonlit could only change tactics. The Evil Eye's Balance Breaker unfolded, stopping time throughout the surrounding area, and she continued toward the rock giant's head.
Using the chainsaw, she forcibly severed the head of the rock giant, which was comparable to a Quasi-Demon King. Just as Miss Moonlit was about to continue and kill the armored priest, the power of time stop was destroyed the next second...
"I already knew you possessed that Sacred Gear..."
Although he said that, the Six-Winged Fallen Angel in the sky looked at the broken disposable Artificial Artifact in his hand, then noticed that the Lost Priest who had become the Balance Breaker rock giant was already dead. His expression was not pleasant.
He knew that the vampire girl before him possessed a Sacred Gear capable of stopping time, so he had prepared a disposable Artificial Artifact specifically designed to counter that type of Sacred Gear.
But he had not expected that although it successfully destroyed the Evil Eye's Balance Breaker, it would not take effect immediately, resulting in the death of one subordinate.
He could no longer sit still. A Spear of Light gathered in his hand, and together with the Lost Priests' Balance Breakers, he fired at Miss Moonlit.
Miss Moonlit activated her Evil Eye once more, but instead of attacking, her body flashed... accompanied by the sound of bats, she transformed into a crimson gale and appeared elsewhere.
These bastards had outnumbered her and even prepared so many Artificial Artifacts specifically to counter her.
Damned Azazel. Whether this had been his idea or not, Miss Moonlit would remember him!
All of these Artificial Artifacts were his creations.
"Balance Breaker!"
After widening the distance, Miss Moonlit also unleashed her Balance Breaker, simultaneously using the double Balance Breaker of Demon Sword Creation and Holy Sword Creation!
"The Demon Emperor Dragon and Holy Emperor Dragon of Dual Extremes!!"
A burst of dragon roars sounded out. Along with an enormous yin-yang phantom, one black and one golden dragon appeared at Miss Moonlit's side.
This was a newly developed Balance Breaker of Miss Moonlit's. Demon Sword Creation and Holy Sword Creation could be combined to develop many variant Balance Breakers. She actually preferred the Dual Extremes: Unlimited Blade Works developed from the two, but at this moment... it did not matter which Balance Breaker she used.
Outnumbering her?
Who could not do the same...
"The feast begins. Go!"
The girl gave the command, and the two dragons immediately flew toward the targets ahead.
Facing these two terrifying dragons, the Lost Priests present immediately became vigilant, unable to spare any attention for the Blood Moon Princess.
After summoning the two dragons, Miss Moonlit immediately took out a terrifying weapon: a five-star heavy cannon she had gotten by accident while pulling for the Moonlit Stigmata.
Starbreaker - Vikrant.
During the decades it possessed the Star of Eden, Anti-Entropy had never stopped researching it, and Starbreaker was one of the results of that research.
Although replicating a Divine Key had been almost an unattainable dream at that stage, the name of this particle cannon already hinted at Dr. Tesla's ambition.
Hoisting Starbreaker - Vikrant onto her shoulder, Miss Moonlit's lips curved upward. Let these bastards witness the power of Anti-Entropy technology!
"Gravity Amplification: Rapid Fire!"
Aiming at the Lost Priests ahead, Miss Moonlit activated rapid-fire mode.
Terrifying super beams instantly shot toward the fire man ahead. Even with Quasi-Demon King-level strength, he still let out a scream the instant he faced the weapon's laser beam.
This replica Divine Key weapon bared its terrifying fangs. With the Dual Dragon Balance Breaker keeping them occupied, the girl could fire to her heart's content.
Before long, the Balance Breaker twin dragons and the super laser beams worked together to kill every enemy.
"What?!"
The Six-Winged Fallen Angel stared in shock at the weapon Miss Moonlit had taken out.
What kind of weapon was that? Was it also some kind of Sacred Gear?
That was indeed possible. Sacred Gears encompassed all kinds of weapons, including many things that seemed like they could only exist in science fiction.
Watching the vampire girl before him use the double Balance Breaker to restrain his subordinates while wildly firing that bizarre laser weapon at them, the Six-Winged Fallen Angel could no longer sit and wait for death.
He immediately flapped his wings, and the black feathers on his body detached, transforming into two black-feather tornadoes that swept toward Miss Moonlit.
The terrifying tornadoes soared into the sky, utterly destroying every building below. The debris mixed into them, further increasing their power!
Seeing this, the girl remained unhurried and simply used the Evil Eye's power once again.
Even a brief time stop was enough. The lasers killed every Lost Priest, and the two dragons turned around and charged toward the Six-Winged Fallen Angel.
Faced with the two powerful tornadoes, the holy dragon and demon dragon chose to tear through them by force without the slightest hesitation. Though they were badly injured as well, Balance Breaker dragons were more than capable of enduring it!
Miss Moonlit then aimed Starbreaker - Vikrant at the Fallen Angel once again.
Locked onto by this super weapon, cold sweat immediately broke out on the Fallen Angel's brow. Seeing that the situation had turned unfavorable, he did not dare linger any longer. Leaving first was the best option.
He could find another opportunity to strike later.
With that thought, the Fallen Angel flapped his wings, intending to retreat.
"Trying to run?"
Did he ask her permission?
Seeing the Fallen Angel attempting to flee, Miss Moonlit naturally refused to allow it. He had ambushed her like this... how could she possibly let him escape so easily?
Today, he had to leave his life behind!
And a Six-Winged Fallen Angel came with a very high bounty reward.
"Distortion Field!"
Just as the Fallen Angel was about to escape, the girl activated one of Starbreaker - Vikrant's built-in abilities.
This weapon had been created with the Divine Key Star of Eden as its reference, so it naturally possessed some of that Divine Key's characteristics.
In an instant, a powerful Distortion Field formed. Terrifying, warped gravity directly dragged everything around it toward the center.
It was like the mass of a black hole in the universe!
Though it was not that powerful, it was undoubtedly still extremely terrifying. The Fallen Angel who had been about to escape struggled with all his strength, yet he could only watch as the field's gravity dragged his body back toward the Blood Moon Princess.
"You've got to be kidding me!!"
The Fallen Angel struggled desperately and took out an Artificial Artifact he carried with him.
Compared to the orthodox Sacred Gears created by the God of the Bible, which had been designed from the beginning to require human genes—even if the user only possessed one-quarter human bloodline.
