Chapter 42: The Blue-robed Mage

At the first glance of the enemy's appearance, the blue-robed mage recognized that the enemy fighting the merchant group in front of him was a vampire.

Perhaps due to their lack of experience, most of the members of the guild did not recognize the identity of the vampire, and only fought as if they were ordinary melee professionals.

At this time, several guards were in front of them to fend off the vampire's attack. On the side, several veteran thieves were clearly aware of the identity of the vampire, but they were extremely hesitant when they should have attacked, relying on the warriors to support them in front.

Due to the fact that the merchant group was in a state of rest before, for a while, although the members of the merchant group took up arms and fought the vampires, not many people put on their armor neatly, and they just relied on the advantage of numbers to suppress the vampires.

In the melee, the vampire relies on his powerful perception to keep an eye on dodging the attacks of powerful enemies, and instead attacks weaker enemies with all his might.

While the blue-robed mage was observing the situation, two ordinary guards who were in charge of transporting goods had already fallen to the ground.

On the side, a thief tried to sneak up on the vampire, but after succeeding, he couldn't withdraw at the first time due to his low rank, and the vampire reacted instantly, ignoring the cut wound on his body, and slashed his backhand through the thief's throat.

In the sight of the blue-robed mage, the vampire was quickly killing the weaker members of the merchant group.

Although he didn't find out where the leader was, the blue-robed mage obviously wouldn't let the vampires attack the members of the merchant group, and hurried to the edge of the battlefield, ready to release the spell.

In view of his sufficient mana, the blue-robed mage first released [Sluggish Dafa] and [Weakness] on the vampire to weaken the vampire's strength, and then began to condense magical energy in his hand to prepare for the next attack spell.

In the middle of the field, the vampire, who had been moving quickly, slowed down and stopped being aggressive. The guards who had been looking for an opportunity around them saw the mages in the merchant group make a move, and they rushed towards the vampires and waved their weapons at them.

Vampires rely on their own characteristics, even if their basic attributes are weakened by magic, they can still make the surrounding guards afraid by exchanging injuries, and they dare not attack vampires at will.

The surrounding guards quickly changed their tactics, not thinking about killing the vampire quickly, but planning to suppress the vampire, relying on the advantage of numbers, attacking again and again, leaving wounds on the vampire.

Seeing that the surrounding melee professionals suppressed the vampire, in the hand of the blue-robed mage mage, an ice arrow emitting a cold aura formed, shooting rapidly in the direction of the vampire.

Perhaps it was the previous fight with Rhodes that the vampire understood how much damage spells could cause, and even if it was suppressed as a whole, the vampire still paid attention to the movements of the blue-robed mage on the side.

The vampire in the middle of the battle sensed a sense of danger and looked directly in the direction of the blue-robed mage and saw the magic shooting at him.

Just as the ice arrow was about to hit the vampire, a black mist instantly erupted from the vampire's body.

Ice arrows shoot into the black mist, piercing through the back of the black mist, and striking the land not far away. A small crater was blown out of the ground, and the skin of the pit was covered with ice chips.

In the black mist formed by the vampires, a large number of bats flew out, and these bats directly crossed the surrounding melee professionals, and all of them surrounded the blue-robed mages at the edge of the battlefield.

The vampire understands that the biggest threat to himself in front of him is the caster behind him, and he wants to use his bat-like ability to try to kill him.

"Spread out!"

The blue-robed mage saw the vampire's intentions and shouted out this to the rest of the members who were beside him, and the surrounding members did not stop, but all ran away from the blue-robed mage.

The bats are getting closer and closer to the blue-robed mage. Seeing that the first bat at the front was about to pounce on the blue-robed mage, the blue-robed mage raised his hand, and in an instant, a powerful magical energy gathered around him, and immediately, this energy exploded.

In the air, with a loud bang, an ice-blue ripple spread outward. A huge ring of ice exploded with the blue-robed mage as the center. The high amount of magic damage instantly killed most of the bats around the blue-robed mage, and only a small number of bats survived because of the distance.

On the side, several members of the merchant group who did not run far were also harmed by this magic. Being far from the center of the damage outbreak, these members were only grazed by the spell and were not too badly injured.

With just one spell, the blue-robed mage killed a large number of bats. There are not enough bats left to sustain the vampires in their bat formation, congregating towards one place.

In the blue-robed mage's field of vision, the remaining bats gathered in one direction and turned into black mist. A large cloud of black mist appeared, making it impossible to see the situation inside.

Being located in the vicinity of Diya all year round, the blue-robed mage was clearly particularly aware of this skill of vampires. I saw the blue-robed mage raise his hand, and an ice arrow condensed in his hand, just waiting for the vampire in the black mist to appear, and then shoot towards the vampire.

Contrary to the blue-robed mage's expectations, in the black mist, the vampire's body did not condense, but instead flew out a large number of bats again.

The blue-robed mage quickly dispersed the condensed spell in his hand and was about to release the ice ring he had used again again, but the vampire clearly understood his intentions, and after seeing his move, the bats scattered in all directions.

This time, not a single bat pounced on the blue-robed mage, but instead pounced on the surrounding merchant group members, and the bats scattered, most of the bats looked for the enemy to attack, and a small number of bats pounced directly on the low-level professionals who had been killed by the vampire before.

The blue-robed mage was helpless, because the bats were all members of the merchant group, he couldn't use a range of damage spells, and the single spell was only consuming his mana, so he could only watch from a distance as the senior thieves in the merchant group quickly waved their daggers, turning the bats in the air into a cloud of black mist.

The low-level professionals in the business group, facing a large number of bats at this time, in order to protect themselves, can only gather next to the senior professionals, trying to unite against the bats in the air, but due to the shrinking of the activity space, they were bitten by the bats instead.

In addition, the blue-robed mage also noticed the bat that was devouring the corpse, and shouted a few words, but could only helplessly find that the others were concentrating on dealing with the bats in the air because they did not understand this skill of vampires.

The blue-robed mage obviously didn't intend to use the spell, but instead took out a special dagger from his robe and walked towards the corpses where the bats were.

If the body of a vampire can suppress the instinct to devour flesh and blood through consciousness, then the bat-transformed bat is completely unable to resist this instinct, and in the process of the bat devouring the flesh and blood of the corpse, even a low-level professional can safely stab them to death one by one.

In the process of stabbing the bat to death with a dagger, the blue-robed mage observed the situation on the battlefield by the way, and still found no trace of the merchant leader Yusher, who should have dealt with another necromancer, which means that he only needs to lead the other members of the merchant group to deal with the vampire in front of him.

In this regard, the blue-robed mage was relieved, and the head of the Shang group personally took action, and the ending was definitely needless to say. As the number two person in the merchant group, the blue-robed mage obviously knew the power of the merchant group leader better than the others.
