Chapter 531: Sweeping the Lair
Behind a stone door in the northern part of the underground labyrinth, the new vampire queen Veran, oh no, has now changed her name to Bardi. She was soaking herself in a pool of blood, enjoying the pleasure of the scarlet liquid slicing across her skin.
As a low-level vampire descendant who suddenly gained power, she had neither a brilliant mind nor any management experience, and it was only by relying on the vampire's strong control over her descendants that she could barely control Joan. Irenikas' orders were done. However, the price is not small, due to the need to keep making the first hug and creating new vampires, the power is lost very quickly. If it weren't for the support of a trace of divinity, plus a large amount of blood sucking, I'm afraid it wouldn't have been able to hold it for a long time.
There are now less than sixty vampires in the entire lair, and ninety percent of them have only completed the transformation ritual in the last few days. They may have no problem dealing with ordinary humans, but if they encounter the elite assassins of the Shadow Thieves Guild, they will instantly appear in their original form, let alone fight, and even running back alive will be a problem.
No way, because they were bullied too badly some time ago, the shadow thieves also learned from Henry and equipped all their men with silver-plated weapons. It's just a minor nuisance for an adult vampire, but a newborn vampire...... As long as the skin is cut, it will immediately cause a violent burn, and if you hit the vital part, you will die directly.
Their strength is too weak, except for the excellent body at night, whether it is combat awareness or fighting skills, they are too far behind, and they can't compare with those old fritters who have been fighting in the streets and alleys for a long time.
Just as Veran was pondering how to improve his current dire situation, suddenly. A newborn vampire recklessly rushed in and shouted, "Mistress! Oh no! The Shadow Thief is here! ”
"What!!! You repeat!!! The vampire queen jerked to her feet. Sticky plasma slides down the pale skin. That naked body fully shows the beauty of evil.
But the newborn vampire obviously didn't care about appreciating this beautiful scenery, and anxiously repeated what he had just said: "Mistress, go and take a look, our people can't stand it anymore." The Shadow Thieves Guild sent the legendary thief Arcanis this time, and now he has broken through the blood pool on the upper level and is coming towards it. ”
"Wake everyone up at once! Remember, it's all, including those who are still lying in the coffin to recuperate. Stalling for time at any cost. As he spoke, Veran carefully wiped the blood from his body, and then began to put on his clothes and armor one by one. She didn't seem to care about the descendants who were desperately resisting from above, and she didn't even show the slightest anxious expression.
――――――――――――――――――――――――――
At the same time, the shadow thieves up there are on a killing spree. With plenty of potions, they are not afraid of vampires' negative damage, and they show off their skillful combat skills to the fullest. It only took less than five minutes to kill a bloody path to the lower level.
Arcanis looked at his junior brothers and showed great courage, and a smile couldn't help but appear on his face: "Judging from this situation, the vampire has no strength, maybe he doesn't need you to make a move." They alone can settle everything. ”
"Maybe. It's best to move quickly, though. You know, I didn't close my eyes all night, and I was so sleepy. Henry looked at the mace that had just been fished out of the blood pool. said helplessly.
For him, these vampires are all right. Anyway, the main purpose of this visit is to get this weapon against the undead, and it doesn't matter what else it is.
"Well, for the sake of your sleep, I'm going to join the battle and send these little bats up who don't know whether they are alive or dead."
As soon as the words fell, Arcanis instantly drew out the two blessed weapons on his waist and rushed forward, piercing the throats of the two vampires in the blink of an eye, and the speed of the action was simply dizzying.
With the legendary thief's strike, the vampires immediately collapsed. They rushed into the entrance of the basement in a panic, and many of them were stabbed to death directly before they could follow. Of course, there are also some guys who find out that the situation is not good, and directly change to gaseous state and escape back to the coffin. But they soon realized that they were wrong, and the shadow thief, who had been waiting here, pulled out a stake and hammered through the vampire's heart.
As many people know, there are only two ways to actually kill a vampire. One is to expose it directly to sunlight and be burned to ashes, and many positive energy spells can achieve similar effects. The other is to pierce their hearts with a stake that Suren has blessed, as it is now. The shadow thieves are very well prepared, so the vampires are in danger this time.
With a sharp scream, Henry's experience points also increased rapidly, ranging from one or two thousand to three or four thousand. Taking advantage of the fierce fight ahead, he took a moment to identify the mace in his hand.
――――――――――――――――――――――――――
Demon Crusher Mace:
This heavy mace was built for a very specific goal: to kill the undead. When such creatures are hit by it, not only will they have to bear the power of the weapon, but they may also be completely destroyed. It is said that a holy priest could destroy a vampire with a single touch, but whether it was the weapon that gave her this power, or whether she made the weapon power, is a matter of theology.
Combat Capabilities:
Deal damage equivalent to legendary weapons to undead monsters, while the target must also fight against the divine forces within, and if they fail, they are destroyed instantly
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――
There is no doubt that this is a sharp weapon against the undead, even if the lich does not resist it, it will instantly turn to powder, but not against other monsters. Of course, this mace is not yet in its most powerful state.
Henry remembered clearly that as long as the surface was covered with a layer of Illich silver, this mace would immediately upgrade to a legendary weapon, and even a half-lich would be seriously injured if it was smashed, and it was normal for it to be killed in seconds. However, Illich silver is very rare, much rarer than pure gold, and legend has it that only underground Mind Flayer cities are mined in small quantities, making it very difficult to obtain.
Just as he felt the inner power of the weapon, suddenly a stealthy vampire launched a sneak attack. She opened her mouth and pounced on her throat as if she had bitten her throat and sucked the blood dry. But alas, this guy obviously picked the wrong object.
Henry glanced at it with contempt, and without hesitation, he picked up the Demon Crusher Mace and smashed it in the enemy's face. The moment the hammer lifted the skin, a huge amount of divine energy was released, and everyone only heard a "bang", followed by this poor guy as if he had been irradiated by the sun, and his entire body burned, and after a few seconds, it turned into a pile of dust.
Seeing this scene, Arcanis asked with a different expression on his face, "This is the mace you just fished out of the pool of blood?" ”
"That's right, the Demon Crusher Mace only works against the undead. No wonder the vampires soaked it in a pool of blood, it turned out to be trying to slowly corrupt the divine energy within. But now it's mine, and it's time to see the blood of these guys. As he spoke, Henry picked up his weapon again and smashed it into the air next to him.
"Ah!!!h Another stealthy vampire screamed and was directly fired and killed on the spot. In the end, he didn't understand how he was seen through.
"It's amazing, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't be able to lend it out for a while. Also, how did you just find out that there are invisible enemies around you? Arcanis asked with interest. He felt that his life-saver was full of mysteries, and his strength felt much stronger than the last time they met.
"Hehe, no invisible unit can escape these eyes of mine. As for why, sorry, it's my personal little secret. As he spoke, the corners of Henry's mouth turned up slightly, revealing a very unbeaten smile.
The reason why he was able to see invisible creatures was simply because he had the "Gift of Suren" on his ears. The reason why I say this is to maintain a sense of mystery in front of the shadow thief, and only in this way can the other party remain afraid and reduce unnecessary "misunderstandings".
Although it has now reached a cooperation agreement with the blood head, there are no small actions in private. But fortunately, both sides know that this is just a test of each other, and there is no intention of tearing their faces. Before Amm is completely self-sufficient, Henry needs the other party to cover for himself, and Bloodhead also needs his support and help.
But they all know that this kind of alliance is based on the fact that the difference in strength between the two sides is not large, and if one side has a big problem, then the other side will immediately pounce and swallow the bones and slag. No way, this is the law of survival of the dark forces, and no one can change it.
Arcarnes was tempted to rush up and punch Henry's handsome face now, but he held back. He knew very well that if he did this, then in the end, not only could he not beat someone, but he would be beaten violently in turn.
Through the relationship of the Dark Council, the blood head had already obtained a copy of the information on the last encirclement and suppression of the heart demon base, and one of the paragraphs was marked out in red ink, which was to describe the battle scene of Henry at that time. Endless methods, cautious character, profound knowledge, and good melee ability, there is basically no trace of loopholes in the whole body.
As a henchman, Arcanis had already read these materials. He felt that if he did fight, then there was a 90% chance that he would be knocked to the ground in the first round.
Without him, just a time standstill can make all those who are not immune to this magic helpless, not to mention all kinds of chain spells, once triggered, not to mention legendary thieves, even a giant dragon has to kneel. The triple attack of high-level magic and divine magic is simply not something that ordinary people can withstand. In particular, level 6 or higher divine arts, such as the "Damage Technique" and the "Implosion Technique", can seriously injure a powerful creature like a secondary demon lord as long as it hits.
"Well, that's your little secret." Helpless, Arcanis had no choice but to endure this evil breath, turned around and slaughtered the newborn vampires, and vented his resentment to the fullest...... (To be continued......)
