This Is Part of the Plan, Too

Otherwise, one-time powers would have no purpose.

Ren is currently undergoing a transformation process.

Muscles, bones, and every part of the body are being strengthened, making flesh tougher and bones harder than the world's strongest alloys.

Then, the problem arose.

The initial enhancement process in the Campione! world takes place when the Campione! separates from its body and travels to the Hidden World to meet Pandora.

You will not feel any pain during this period.

But in this world there is neither the Hidden World nor Pandora, so Ren can only rely on himself to endure it.

It's one thing to tough it out, but the key issue is that the process is also very long.

Even a mere ten minutes or so, which used to pass by unnoticed while scrolling through videos, now feels like an eternity.

In the end, Ren simply couldn't sit still during the enhancement process, so he could only vent his frustration by touching the ground beneath his feet.

This caused the vampire residents living nearby to be terrified by the strong ground tremors.

They were terrified that the murderous god who never slept in broad daylight would suddenly appear before them and slap them to their God.

Of course, this never happened.

Chapter 248 This is also part of the plan

Chapter 248

Meanwhile, on a beach near the coast in Romania.

A gentle sea breeze blew, and the warm sunshine made the beach shine white. The distant sea was a clear, bright blue, merging seamlessly with the sky.

As the leader of the Evil Tree, a descendant of the first Demon King Lucifer, and the mastermind behind the armed coup in Tepes and the vampire enhancement incident, the transcendent Lizevim - Livan - Lucifer is currently using a spell set up in the Tepes domain to check the situation there.

He had originally planned to visit the vampire territory again soon to play a trick on those vampires who were being manipulated by him without even realizing it.

However, not long ago, Lizevim suddenly severed the connection with the restrictions within those vampires' bodies.

At first, he didn't care, but as more and more contacts were lost, Lizevim had no choice but to use magic to investigate the current situation on the other side.

However, most of the surveillance magic installed within the castle had become ineffective, so he could only use one surveillance spell that could overlook the town to check the situation.

Then he saw the ruins of the vampire castle of Tepes Faction and the defeat of the Dark Dragon of the New Moon.

At first, he thought he was seeing things, but after realizing what was happening, his usually carefree face finally showed shock and disbelief.

The most powerful evil dragon, who obeyed his commands, was captured!

Moreover, although that guy was taciturn, he didn't completely obey his orders.

Unlike the evil dragons he resurrected using the Holy Grail, the Dark Dragon of the New Moon was attracted by the gathered evil dragons and only temporarily joined their ranks.

Therefore, Lizevim only signed a verbal contract with him, and then assigned him the difficult task of protecting Marius.

Lizevim thought the matter would end smoothly, but unexpectedly, a Cheng Yaojin appeared out of nowhere and defeated and captured the Dark Dragon of the New Moon with unstoppable momentum.

The dragon possessed power that even Lizevim admitted was inferior to.

Of course, Lizevim wasn't afraid of the Dark Dragon of the New Moon, after all, he had five evil dragons as bodyguards around him.

Even if the Dark Dragon of the New Moon is the strongest, it is impossible for it to defeat the Five Evil Dragons.

Even five wouldn't work.

Furthermore, Lizevim himself possesses power several times greater than the first Demon King, so a six-on-one fight is a guaranteed victory.

Therefore, Lizevim did consider first killing the Dark Dragon of the New Moon together, then using the Holy Grail to resurrect him and completely dominate him.

However, the Dark Dragon of the New Moon was actually defeated by an unknown human.

"I never expected that even that guy, Crom Cruach, would fail."

Who exactly is that human?

"Lizevim, didn't you say that this whole plan was under your control?"

"Oh, so this is also part of your plan? Actually, I've been annoyed with the Crom Cruach for a long time. I really want to fight him, but I'm always ignored. Heh, that human must be very strong. I really want to have a good fight with him!"

Five twisted black phantoms emerged one by one from beside Lizevim.

Although they were all shrouded in black mist, anyone could see their twisted and evil forms.

Among them were a black-scaled, silver-eyed dragon giant; a giant dragon resembling a withered tree; a black giant snake with four limbs and two wings, an earthy yellow body, and an unusual stench; a slender snake-dragon with dark black scales that shimmered with silver light; and finally, a jet-black dragon with three heads.

They are ancient evil dragons that were resurrected after Lizevim obtained the Holy Grail by searching for his lost soul.

They are Grendel; Ladon; Nidhogg; Apep; and Azi Dahaka.

Unlike Crom Cruach.

They, resurrected by the Holy Grail holder, all obeyed Lizevim's commands.

After all, their fate, now that they've been revived, is still firmly in Lizevim's hands.

With just a thought, Lizevim could easily extinguish their lives, causing them to die once more.

After being mocked by the evil dragons, Lizevim stared into silence at the dim magical scene.

He enjoys novelty and the unknown, and he likes the unpredictability of the world, but the current situation is clearly out of control.

Crom Cruach is not a threat.

The biggest threat is that human.

Lizevim racked his brains but still couldn't figure out what kind of powerful figures in this world he didn't know.

"Where did this guy even come from?"

Lizevim fell into deep thought.

"Lizevim, what are you thinking? Do you know that human's identity?"

"The Grendel, asked impatiently."

If it were Lizevim sent to deal with Crom Cruach's companions, it would like to fight.

If not, it still wants to fight.

In short, regardless of whether they were allies or not, Glendale was eager to fight that human.

Lizevim fell silent for a long time, then frowned slightly and nodded. "Yes, he is indeed part of my plan."

"Alright then, hurry up and call him back to fight me! My body is itching for a fight!"

The Grendel, was extremely excited.

The other evil dragons remained silent.

Ardahaka chuckled softly in the shadows.

Seemingly hearing Ardahaka's laughter, Lizevim raised his eyes again, his usual cynical and frivolous smile returning.

"Then it's time to plan the last and most interesting part."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lizevim snapped his fingers crisply.

They then continued to stare at the magical scene.

After waiting for more than ten seconds, there was still no obvious change.

"Calm down, calm down, it should be starting soon! Look!"

Lizevim's tone became cheerful again.

Following the direction of his finger, one after another, enormous, pitch-black monsters crashed through buildings and appeared in the sky above the town of the Tepes Faction in the dim snowy landscape.

Only when a monster approached the monitoring magic's range did the scene before them suddenly become clear.

They were enormous black dragons with wings on their backs, exuding an ominous aura.

As time ticked by, the number of black dragons in the sky above the city increased, appearing to number in the hundreds or even thousands.

These black dragons were originally vampires from the Tepes Faction who had undergone the first enhancement by the Holy Grail.

Whether nobles, commoners, or soldiers, all those who have undergone enhancement and modification have invariably lost their minds, transforming into mass-produced evil dragons that only know destruction and annihilation.

"Grendel, the evil dragon factor in you is indeed very useful! You succeeded on your first test."

"..."

Chapter 249 Didn't your mother teach you anything?

Chapter 249

The city ruled by the Tepes Government was engulfed in flames by evil dragons.

The vampires hiding in the buildings were forced to come out. Some of the vampires who had not yet turned into evil dragons began to fight the dragons, but the difference in strength between the two sides was several times greater. In addition, due to the armed coup, the former king's army of the Tepes Faction had already been scattered, and the united army of the nobles had been strengthened by the Holy Grail, so they were unable to stop any effective counterattack.

As for the common people, although they are vampires, they are no different from ordinary people when facing evil dragons.

Some of the Carmilla Faction vampires who had infiltrated the territory of Tepes stared in disbelief at the aftermath.

They had intended to lie in wait here and investigate why Tepes's army had suddenly become so powerful, but they never expected to encounter such an unexpected result.

Seeing their former comrades being ravaged by the evil dragon, the vampires of Carmilla Faction couldn't help but step in to save them.

But with only a handful of people, it's like a drop in the ocean.

Unbeknownst to many, the same scenario was unfolding within Carmilla Faction.

There were also many nobles who were dissatisfied with the rule of the True Carmilla, and they secretly communicated with the Tepes Faction.

His private soldiers also received the initial enhancement from the Holy Grail.

While the number of cities is slightly less than that of Tepes, there are still several hundred mass-produced evil dragons wreaking havoc in the city.

However, the situation remains far from optimistic.

Because the mass-produced evil dragon was merely a byproduct of Lizevim's hasty research, it retained its most primal beastly instincts.

Furthermore, since their origins lie in the Grendel, they are consumed by nothing but destruction and destructive desires, and they attack everything in their path indiscriminately except for their own kind.

The scorching flames swept across the land, and the icy snow was instantly swept away.

The vampires, struck by the flames, turned to ashes amidst their screams.

In just a few minutes, one-fifth of the city was destroyed, and the fighting quickly spread to the city center.

Valerie's ethereal gaze swept across the bustling city, and she murmured, "The city has become like this, but who can stop it?"

"The nation's soldiers have all been transformed into evil dragons by my brother; there's no way to get rid of them now."

"You're powerless to stop it either? But if this continues, the country will be destroyed."

At this point, a look of sadness appeared on Valerie's delicate face.

"Huh? Is this okay?"

"Can that monstrous man stop the evil dragon? Are you... trying to get me to beg him?"

"Okay, I'll give it a try then."

As soon as she finished speaking, Valerie's eyes regained their sparkle.

Because of the Holy Grail within her, she can communicate with the spirits of the dead, who are invisible to ordinary people.

Valerie pushed herself up with her hands on the ground.

Finding the monster the undead were talking about wasn't difficult.

Before this, Valerie could hear a series of explosive booms. Although they had weakened somewhat, she could still clearly determine the direction of the man from the dazzling, torch-like aura not far away.

The girl walked towards the east.

Her slender feet wore small women's leather shoes, and with each step she took, she could feel the cold and dampness of the snow on the ground.

She had only taken a few steps when the biting cold made Valerie's feet turn icy and purple.
