"Phew, good thing I ran fast!"

Wu Di, still shaken, arrived at another spot in the deserted area and finally relaxed.

Actually, at the last moment, he vaguely saw Sweet Mask turn into a monster to block the attack.

If Wu Di hadn't left then, they probably would have been locked in a life-or-death battle, as monstrous transformation had always been Sweet Mask's biggest secret.

"No matter what, as long as the mission is complete, we'll deal with future matters later."

Wu Di could already imagine that if he met Sweet Mask at the Hero Association in the future, he would probably just kill him on the spot.

Half a day later, with the weakness caused by his aura reduced by more than half, Wu Di continued his search nearby.

The sun had already set, and the deserted area, shrouded in darkness, was imbued with a dangerous aura.

"Hmph?"

Wu Di stopped. He had a feeling that a pair of eyes were watching him from the darkness.

Several shadows streaked past rapidly from the darkness. Just as Wu Di was on full alert, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his neck.

"What the hell was that?"

Thwack Wu Di's hand moved like lightning. He felt like he had grabbed something furry. In the faint moonlight, he finally saw that it was a bat.

At this moment, the bat's mouth was still faintly stained with blood, and it let out a shrill cry in the night.

Poof Wu Di applied a little force, and the little bat was crushed, its blood splattering out.

"Since you're here, don't play these silly little tricks."

Wu Di's gaze was sharp, and he stared intently into the dark street.

"I didn't expect any human to dare to intrude here. It saves me the trouble of going out to hunt."

A man with an eerie appearance, dressed in a tuxedo, slowly emerged from the darkness, his scarlet tongue licking his lips.

"Monster Association, Demon-level executive, Vampire Count."

Upon seeing the monster's appearance, Wu Di was not surprised but delighted. His purpose for coming here was to find Demon-level monsters and complete the extermination order.

However, the monsters of the Monster Association were powerful, and this place was very close to their lair. If he was surrounded and attacked, he could lose his life.

"I can smell it, your blood is very delicious."

Vampire Count's eyes gradually became bloodthirsty, and the smell of blood in the air stimulated his desires.

"I can also feel it, you must have quite a few Talent Points."

Wu Di grinned. Tonight was destined to be a fruitful one.

Bang Wu Di stomped his feet, his body launching forward like a cannonball towards Vampire Count. He threw a fierce punch.

"Are you in such a hurry to die?"

Vampire Count agilely dodged the attack. His hands transformed into sharp claws and he slashed fiercely, leaving deep, bone-revealing gashes on Wu Di's arm in an instant.

Wu Di ignored his bleeding arm and relentlessly pressed his attack on Vampire Count.

Boom boom boom At first, Vampire Count could still dodge with his agile footwork and continuously inflict wounds on Wu Di.

But after dozens of rounds, he realized something was wrong. Wu Di's aura was growing stronger, and his attack speed was increasing.

"It seems you're not an ordinary human either. Interesting."

Thump At this moment, Wu Di seized an opportunity and punched off one of Vampire Count's arms.

Swish Vampire Count's expression remained unchanged. His figure suddenly transformed into countless bats, engulfing Wu Di.

"Get lost!"

Wu Di felt the bats frantically sucking his blood, his consciousness gradually blurring. He roared in anger.

"Savage Tornado!!!"

Rumble A terrifying tornado erupted from the ground, and countless fist shadows blew up the bats.

"What delicious blood."

Not far away, Vampire Count's slightly tattered body reformed, a look of lingering desire on his face. Clearly, Wu Di's attack had not dealt him a fatal blow.

A swarm of bats flew from somewhere in the darkness, merging into Vampire Count's body, and his injuries quickly healed.

"This guy's regenerative ability mainly comes from blood. There must be a blood bank he's keeping nearby."

A glint flashed in Wu Di's eyes. There were countless monsters in the Monster Association. For a Demon-level executive like Vampire Count, it would be easy to gather a group of Wolf-level and Tiger-level monsters to serve as a blood bank.

As long as the blood bank was destroyed or he was kept away from it, his regenerative ability could be greatly delayed, and then he could be slowly worn down.

"The blood bank is most likely underground. It's not impossible for other powerful monsters to exist there. I need to lure him away from here."

Wu Di made up his mind and turned to flee into the distance.

"Trying to escape?"

Vampire Count sneered. His body instantly transformed into a giant bat, its wings spread wide as it pursued Wu Di.

Boom A pair of sharp claws tore into Wu Di's back, leaving his skin and flesh ripped open. But he only grunted and continued to flee.

"Let's see how long you can last!"

The Vampire Count's interest was piqued. With his incredible speed, he launched a barrage of attacks, and soon Wu Di's entire body was covered in bloody wounds.

"That's enough."

Wu Di suddenly turned and unleashed a powerful punch. The Vampire Count, having anticipated this, instantly blocked the attack.

"Did you really think luring me here would do anything? With your strong recovery, it's like I have an endless supply of blood."

The Vampire Count's tone was laced with mockery. He had seen through Wu Di's plan from the start but wasn't worried at all.

This was also a display of his absolute confidence in his own strength. Even if something unexpected happened, Wu Di would never be able to catch him with his speed.

"Oh really? Then try sucking some more!"

A strange smile spread across Wu Di's lips, and the two figures clashed once more.

"Then I won't hold back!"

The Vampire Count instantly appeared behind Wu Di, his two sharp fangs piercing deeply into his neck.

"Likewise!"

Wu Di, who seemed to be completely defenseless, grabbed the Vampire Count with his backhand and slammed him to the ground with an over-the-shoulder throw.

"System, activate Pig God experience card, Devour!"

ROAR! Wu Di's mouth instantly transformed into a gaping maw, and he lunged at the Vampire Count.

"Damn it, what is this thing!"

The Vampire Count's pupils constricted. He felt a threat of death for the first time in a long while.

Squelch At the last moment, the Vampire Count's potential erupted, and a portion of his body escaped, but more than half of him was already devoured by Wu Di.

"Ding~ Devoured a Demon-level Monster's body, gained five hundred Talent Points."

"Only five hundred? What a waste of this skill on you."

Wu Di smacked his lips, as if savoring the taste.

"You damn guy."

Fear flickered in the Vampire Count's eyes. He couldn't remember the last time he had felt this way.

"I'll stop playing around for today. Next time, I'll definitely capture you and make you a part of my blood bank."

Swish After issuing a threat, the Vampire Count's body turned into an afterimage and he fled rapidly into the distance.

Boom Wu Di's aura erupted. The recent Devour had significantly strengthened his physical body, and his injuries were completely healed.

"You think you can just leave?"
