"Boom!"
With a loud noise, the body of the high-level vampire hit the stone wall of the trial hall heavily.
The walls were cracked and dust fell, covering his perfectly fitting velvet robe.
"Cough----cough----"
The high-level vampire let out a painful groan from his throat.
His face completely collapsed and twisted together under the extreme force.
In the corners of his cracked mouth, most of the two rows of sharp teeth were broken, and blood continued to flow from his mouth.
The entire body was embedded in the stone wall, all the bones in the body were shaking, and all the internal organs were damaged.
Raising his head with difficulty, his originally playful and arrogant eyes looked at the position of Arwen. In addition to shock, there was also deep fear.
What is going on with the witcher in front of me?
He is the top predator after Conjunction of the Spheres, a high-level vampire at the top of the food chain.
Even the most legendary mages can't do anything against him.
But now, fear surged in his heart. He was facing a human being, and he was actually scared!
There was also the opponent's power, which he had only seen from the giant dragon.
The scarlet eyes reflected the golden beast's vertical pupils.
Arwen moved his left wrist slightly, and the opponent's hot blood still remained on the silver-studded glove.
He walked towards the high-level vampire slowly and unhurriedly.
His eyes were locked on the latter's body, and he had a mysterious feeling.
He was able to completely kill this high-level vampire and render his resurrection ability ineffective.
This ability is not given by the system, but by that touch of divinity.
Divinity from Hydra Evil God.
After the fusion, his life dimension has become higher than the underlying logic of this world.
The high-level vampire's body trembled.
What kind of monster is this guy in front of me!?
There is only one thought in my mind.
Run, must run!
He struggled to get out of the stone wall, and all the bones in his body were creaking.
A roar came out of his mouth, and he no longer had the calm demeanor he had just now, and his body turned into a black mist.
Under [Shadow Realm Jump], he ran towards the passage to the side regardless of everything.
Arwen's eyes darkened, his palms clenched the hilt of the sword tightly, and he did not chase after him rashly.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The drum-like heartbeat gradually subsided next to the eardrums, a suppressed feeling came from the heart, and the boiling [Giant Bloodline] was forcibly stopped.
This feeling is very bad, as if I haven't exercised for a long time, I have exercised hard, and I just sat down to rest for a while when my eyesight went dark and my ears were buzzing.
The Hydra Evil God curse is at work again.
[Corpse-Eating Feedback] It is cooling and cannot be used for a short period of time.
He frowned and cursed secretly in his heart.
This damn curse must be resolved as soon as possible.
At this moment, a scream came from behind.
It's Ida·Ai Min's voice.
Arwen turned around quickly and happened to look at the two Bruxa.
The two took advantage of the fact that the former had no time to worry about Aiden, and broke through their defense.
Arwen snorted coldly and rushed out.
You can't catch high-level vampires, but it's still very easy to kill two Bruxa.
The hand rises and the sword falls.
The sword edge easily sliced through the chest of the first Bruxa. He stepped forward vigorously, with his left foot as the center of the circle, turned and slashed diagonally to the right, and cut off the second monster that attempted a sneak attack diagonally along the shoulder.
Blood and internal organs were splashed on the ground, and black smoke continued to rise.
The two corpses were twisted and fell to the ground.
The system panel jumps out of the settlement interface.
[School of the Wolf Witcher Swordsmanship experience +10]
[School of the Cat Witcher Swordsmanship experience +10]
[Quen, Aard Sign experience +5!]
[Kill Bruxa, get Vampire Bruxa Mutagen 25%] 8!
[Kill Fleder, get Fleder Mutagen 25%] 8!
Bruxa 8?
It seems that the three fleeing Bruxa also died in a corner under the influence of Black Blood.
Synthesize mutants with one click.
[Bruxa Mutagen (yellow) 2, install this mutation, you can increase your speed by 10%, and the yellow talent, Shadow Walking]
[Shadow Walking (yellow): Your skin mutates. When you are in a shadow or dim environment, you will automatically enter a low-level hiding state. The first attack will be launched from the hiding state, and the damage will be increased by 15%]
[Fleder Mutagen (green) 2, install this mutation, you can enhance your own mental power by 5%, and green talent, Blood Intuition]
[Blood Intuition (green): Your olfactory nerves and perception have mutated. According to your mental perception range, you can sense the location of all living things with blood within the range.]
Install them all!"
When walking towards Aiden, he lowered his head and even trembled subconsciously.
But when he walked in front of the two of them, the heartbreaking pain had receded.
I glanced at the panel and got two talents at once.
One is a stealth skill, and the other is a skill that favors mental perception.
As for the former, it can be regarded as the superior replacement of [Illusory Mist Invisibility], and combined with [Crouching Ambush] obtained from Giant Centipede, it can have a superimposed effect.
Not bad.
This latter, with his current mental perception, can accurately perceive all living creatures within a hundred meters, including monsters that are proficient in hiding. Under [Blood Sense], there will be no way to hide.
Thinking of this, his mental power spread out, ignoring the wall, ensuring the safety of the surrounding environment.
"Hiss----"
Aiden took a breath of air and let out a painful groan.
"Aiden, your left hand!"
Aiden squatted down, holding the silver sword with his right hand, and large drops of cold sweat broke out on his already pale forehead.
Four blood marks appeared on his left arm, and blood stained his leather armor.
That position had been injured by Slyzard, and now it was scratched by Bruxa.
"I----I'm fine----"
He spoke intermittently.
Arwen Turned his wrist, shook off the dirty blood on the silver sword, and put it back into its scabbard.
A strange red light suddenly flashed across the golden vertical pupils.
[Blood Sense] is triggered, and the two bodies in front of you appear orange-red, just like in night vision goggles.
This effect is like drinking [cat] magic potion.
Aiden The blood on the left arm continues to flow out, showing a light yellow color. Bruxa The virus on the paw is constantly infecting the wound0
Ida·Emin chanted a spell and cast elf healing magic on the former.
The wound begins to heal.
"How is it? Can we continue walking?"
Arwen's eyes were slightly lowered and his voice was very calm.
Aiden showed a wry smile, "Of course, of course."
He stood up with difficulty holding on to the hilt of his sword.
Ida Ai Min frowned and said, "This is not a wise choice, Mr. Demon Hunter. I have heard that your body is extremely resistant to toxins, but the fact is not absolute. The wound on your left arm has been infected and you cannot continue to move forward."
Aiden gasped for air, lowered his body and shouted, "No, the laboratory is right in front, I can't give up right here."
Arwen looked at the paranoid side of School of the Cat the demon hunter in front of him, "If you go further, you may encounter vampires, so go back."
"I'm fine, it's just some flesh wounds."
Aiden nodded his head sharply.
"Okay," Arwen nodded, "Then follow me closely, it will only be worse than here."
Speaking of this, Ida·Ai Min frowned slightly and sent a message to Arwen in his heart. However, when he saw the other person's eyes, his beautiful eyes shrank, but he quickly returned to normal.
Arwen walked in front, followed closely by Aiden and Ida.
The three of them passed through the arched stone gate behind the trial hall, then followed the extremely steep spiral staircase and went deep into the underground passage of Morgraig.
The layout of the underground passage is different from that of the lobby on the first floor. It seems that there is no decoration at all, and there are rocks on both sides of the head and feet.
The air is filled with the smell of earthy dampness, etc., and a familiar smell.
Arwen took a deep breath, it was a mutated mushroom.
Yes, this is the birthplace of Order of Witchers, how could this thing be missing?
The further we walked, the rock walls were covered with mycelium and clusters of luminous mushrooms grew, bringing a little light to the dark environment.
"Tick tock----tick tock----"
Water droplets fell from the top of the head, echoing continuously in the underground passage.
[Blood Sense] Triggered.
A light yellow figure appeared in his sight.
The three of them walked over quickly and found a brown-haired woman hanging in the air by a hemp rope.
Blood flowed down her right arm and fell on the stone ground drop by drop.
It's blood.
Aiden Seeing this scene, anger filled the cat's eyes.
"Oh, damn it, there's a plague here, and there's a big living person here!?"
Ida·Ai Min took a few steps back, her beautiful eyes full of regret.
She could tell that the girl in front of her had just died.
Arwen walked straight over the girl's body, "Follow me, the high-level vampire is in front."
Aiden Hearing this, he reached over his shoulder and grasped the hilt of the silver sword.
At the end of the corridor is a thick stone door. The surface of the stone door is blue-gray and engraved with magic runes.
The runes are obscure and are the same as those on Alzur's Stone Circle, which is Primordial Runes.
The runes seemed to sense the arrival of strangers, and continued to flicker and fade like a tide.
In the middle of the stone door, there is a circular indentation, which looks exactly like Alzur's Stone Circle.
And right next to the stone door, there was a faint gasping sound that was difficult for ordinary people to detect.
The high-level vampire sat slumped on the ground, his chest rising and falling, and his breath was extremely weak.
The distorted face returned to normal, but that noble and delicate face was covered with green abscesses, [Black Blood] were constantly eroding his body, making him miserable.
"Hehe----"
He raised his head like a frightened little rabbit, trembling all over.
The punch just now was accompanied by [Rotthorn Toxin], which is why this high-level vampire was allowed to escape.
Arwen did not step forward, but glanced at the strange instrument beside him.
It was a wheelchair made of old oak, and a human woman sat quietly on the wheelchair.
Most of her flaxen hair was gone, she was thin and skinny, and her face was pale.
From the slightly open collar, you can see a horizontal dark red scar on her neck.
That was definitely a fatal wound.
The woman is wearing a clean and tidy dress, with a slightly bulging belly.
With strong perception, one can feel that there is a life inside.
Above the woman, five huge leather blood bags hung from iron hooks. Rough and crude hoses penetrated into the woman's arms along the blood bags, continuously transporting blood.
"Oh my god----"
Ida·Ai Min took a deep breath.
"Ileira----" The high-level vampire slowly stood up against the stone wall, stretched out his trembling hand, and touched the woman's cheek.
But the woman lowered her head, closed her eyes tightly, and fell into an endless sleep.
The eyes of a high-level vampire are full of tenderness.
Suddenly, he turned his head sharply, and his ferocious pupils showed a trace of prayer at this moment.
"Witcher----know----I know I have.----I shouldn't kill these people----but please----please save her----"
The high-level vampire has a hoarse voice.
"Ileira------I'm here--not for this castle--I'm here--"
"As you can see----I love her----she is my wife----"
"A vampire----falling in love with a human woman----haha----how absurd and ridiculous----"
"But I love her----but now she is like this----"
"It's all because of me----because of my identity----she died at the hands of those witch hunters----"
"I want to save her----" there was madness in his tone, "she shouldn't die here----I know the legend of your demon hunter----the legend of Alzur----he is proficient in life and mutation----he is a great wizard----can make your demon hunter----mutation can also bring Ileira back to life----in his laboratory----"
As he spoke, he knelt down and spoke in a sincere and humble tone.
"I beg you----I have nothing left----I only have Ileira----As long as you save her----save our children----I will promise you anything----Law of Surprise----Yes----I use Law of Surprise in exchange with you----including my life----"
Arwen's eyes were dead.
Mutation can indeed save a person's life, but it is tantamount to a narrow escape from death.
But----
"Hum!"
There was a silent sword light behind him, and the sharp sword blade cut straight into the back of Arwen's neck.
"Block!"
Sparks flew.
Arwen pulled out Thor Ivy to block at an extremely weird speed.
The assault was far from over. The attacker used the force of the rebound to bend and change his moves.
He used his strength to lower his center of gravity, flicked his wrist flexibly, and the silver sword turned into a tricky diagonal slash, attacking Arwen's temple like a maggot attached to the bone.
This move forced Arwen to block and at the same time, the raider used extremely coherent small spins to perform fake movements to put pressure.
Then, with an extremely counterintuitive step, he switched to his left foot and suddenly cut into the inner circle, giving priority to a small spin shot.
Arwen Seeing every move, the sword shadows kept intersecting, making the sound of gold and iron clashing.
Immediately afterwards, the attacker stabbed his throat, stabbed his knees, and finally stabbed him in the heart.
Tricky, precise, and deadly!
Arwen didn't panic, he was very familiar with this swordsmanship.
It was Holden who taught him School of the Cat Swordsmanship.
He leaned forward and got close to the attacker's body at a strange angle.
Due to the opponent's feint, he was unable to fully use the sword's edge, but the hilt of the sword in his backhand hit the opponent's skull hard.
School of the Cat's tricky three feints combined with a sure kill had long been cracked by Holden.
The attacker was forced back, his eyes full of shock.
Arwen sneered in a low voice.
"Finally can't hide anymore? Aiden, no, how should I call you, Mr. Vampire----"
