He seems to have the ability to lock onto a specific target, randomly selecting one from Swarm that all appear identical, and then killing it with all his might.
Although the Swarm still numbers considerably, it is utterly helpless against this attack method. If Oliver is determined enough, he can kill the Soldier Bee by trading injury for death.
At that moment, Oliver had already locked onto a Soldier Bee flew extremely fast and could always make sudden stops in mid-air at the right time.
Just as he anticipated the opponent's next flight trajectory and struggled to extend his right hand, his arm suddenly tore at the elbow.
His right hand and forearm traced an arc in the air, grazing the Soldier Bee's legs before landing on the ground some distance away.
Oliver looked at the severed area on his right arm and seemed to realize something; a sliver of reason briefly returned to his body.
The enormous monster staggered and knelt on the ground, but it did not die. Instead, it lowered its head and seemed to be praying something:
"Great Fourth Progenitor, Grand Duke of Adelaide, Avengers of Absolute Punishment, your humble child begs for your gaze, begs for your mercy, begs for a fleeting glance from you in eternity, for which I offer all that I have."
Time seemed to stand still at this moment, just as Bennett prayed when entering his final form. Adelaide, another progenitor besides Antos, also cast her gaze from the void at this moment.
" Oliver, my child."
Oliver, who had become so Aberration that he could no longer maintain his form, seemed to hear the call of the person he was praying to, and his entire body suddenly went limp.
That voice, seemingly from the heavens, still echoed in his ears and mind:
Rest in peace.
At this moment, the Oliver, who had been lying dormant underground for seventeen years, finally ended his final dance less than two hours after emerging from the ground.
But his body, which had begun to disintegrate, suddenly came back to Vitality.
The flesh and blood began to rapidly reassemble, and on that disgusting mass of rotting flesh, a huge eyeball suddenly opened, its scarlet pupils scanning everything around it.
All the Soldier Bee in the air now appeared in the giant eye's field of vision, and the insectoids suddenly felt a sudden, inexplicable panic, as if they had been locked onto by something incomprehensible.
A message, not transmitted through sound, appeared in their minds at the same time, instantly sentencing these individuals:
"Enemy, annihilate."
As the verdict was announced, the body tissues beneath the chitinous shells of the hundreds of surviving Bee Person instantly turned into blood.
Before their appearance had even changed, their wings on their backs had already stopped flapping, and they fell to the ground in unison.
The enormous eyes darted around rapidly after the verdict was announced, without even glancing at the Bee Person.
In the blink of an eye, his eyes had already shifted, his gaze fixed on the seal inside the cave:
"Traitor..."
At that moment, all the players in the cave felt a chill run down their spines for no reason. [ Zhong Lele ], who was lying on the ground taking pictures, felt dizzy and lightheaded, as if he had already stepped halfway into the brink of sudden death.
Even though some of them couldn't make eye contact with the giant eyeball, it felt as if an invisible hand had gripped their hearts, and their lives hung in the balance.
However, just as the Grand Duke was about to deliver his verdict, another voice appeared within Oliver's already dead body:
"Hey, you vampires, why aren't you in jail? What are you thinking about micromanagement all day...? Last time it was Antos, and now it's you. If you're so capable, come out and fight! What are you doing, playing these puppets..."
The enormous eyeball suddenly lost focus, and the progenitor Adelaide, who had briefly Descent this place, suddenly realized that she had not completely taken over this body.
How is that possible?
Even though Oliver used a massive amount of non- Adelaide Lineage blood during his resurrection, he was still unable to bring his brothers and sisters to this Descent.
Moreover, those fellow progenitors would never speak to me in such a tone.
"Who are you?"
The progenitor Adelaide asked in the space of will.
After a very brief moment of thought, the unknown consciousness spoke:
" Antiya Lisi, Archbishop of the Aduolin Province Tree Worship Church Theocracy, has been ordered by the Verdant Holy See to eradicate this resurgence of the Blood Corpse."
"Hmph, do you even deserve to talk about 'extermination'? Humanity seems to have forgotten the fear we once instilled in them."
"That old geezer is flipping through the almanac again. He should crawl out of his grave first."
The voice scoffed at Adelaide's intimidation, and before Adelaide could retort, it continued:
"I know this body is about to completely collapse, what a pity. You'd better pray you have enough marquises and earls under your command, so we can meet a few more times."
"You ignorant fool..."
"Alright, alright, just one more reminder: my name is Antiya Lisi, and my address is in the study on the second floor of the cathedral in Fir City, the capital of Aduolin Province in the Tree Worship Church Theocracy. It's ten days' journey west from here. Remember to come and seek revenge on me, don't forget!"
Before Adelaide could respond, Ed had already withdrawn his consciousness and detonated all the remaining plant toxins in Oliver's body.
The bloated body began to collapse and disintegrate, and because the enormous eyeballs created by the final Aberration were already out of focus and unusable, Adelaide was ultimately unable to utter her final judgment.
"Well."
With a sigh of helplessness, a wisp of consciousness flashed through his mind as he released a final spell for his deceased offspring before vanishing without a trace.
[The entire Army of Soldier Bee is dead. Marquis Oliver Adelaide, the vampire, is dead.]
The game notification appeared before the players, and the anxiety and discomfort of having their hearts gripped had completely vanished without them even realizing it.
The players walked out of the cave dejectedly, unable to believe that the fierce battle had come to an end in just a few minutes.
Outside the cave, what came into view was an unknown object, a mixture of flesh and plants, which was now spread on the ground like a fungal carpet.
Around the "fungal carpet," thousands of Soldier Bee in various dead states lay scattered on the ground.
Apart from that, only a few hundred scattered Blood Corpse remained in the wilderness. Without any protection, they all hid in dark corners, quietly waiting for the darkness to Descent.
As the players approached the fungal carpet, an aged corpse emerged from the viscous tissue.
It was the corpse of an elderly man with a relatively well-proportioned figure, dressed in proper aristocratic attire. The black poison at his fingertips and his blood-red eyes silently spoke of his identity.
New markers also appeared on the players' panels at the same time:
[Quest Item: Oliver Adelaide's Corpse]
