Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Rite of Advancement

Night fell again in Chicago, and the same fell in the mountains and rivers, tonight was the full moon, and looking up in the valley, the huge moon seemed to cover the entire sky.

On the top platform of the temple in the lake, Zheng Yi and all the people of the Rice family arrived, standing at both ends of the platform clearly.

In the center of the platform was a large and intricate magic circle, painted by Steward Gilles himself, and Countess Amandina was now standing quietly with her eyes closed.

"Tsk, I really didn't expect this person's strength to be so strong, and he was about to be promoted to duchess, which is said to be rare among the blood clan." John, who couldn't sit idle for a moment, muttered.

"What's wrong, regret it? It's not too late to chase her, and it looks like she has a crush on you when you're in Canada. Locke teased him in a low voice.

John reflexively shrunk his neck and shook his head with a sad face, "Forget it, I think humans are very good, maybe in one hundred and eighty years I will consider whether to change into a blood clan." ā€

On the lake next to the temple, Xiao Hei also stood on the water with Wu Zhiqi on his back, and the old monster lay on his side on Xiao Hei's head and patted its head, "Xiao Hei, you can take a closer look this time, these people are also cultivating with the essence of the moon, looking at their promotion process, it may be helpful for your growth." The big heads on the left and right nodded, signaling that they understood.

Seeing the moon rise in the middle of the night sky, Gilles, a steward in a wide black cloak, coughed and signaled everyone to be quiet, and the ceremony was about to begin.

"Amandina. Unleash your most powerful state to feel the light of the moon, Erantz. ā€

As soon as the words fell, the countess's eyes opened instantly, all of them were blood-red, and she couldn't distinguish between the pupils and the whites of her eyes, and at the same time, a pair of bat wings behind her were also greatly opened, and long claws stretched out from her hands, and four sharp canine teeth were clearly visible in her wide open mouth.

Looking at her now, John became more cautious about associating with her.

Li stood aside and saw the old butler chanting in a low voice, he listened hard, but he only heard some words, such as ancestor, shelter, family, or something.

As the old butler chanted, the entire magic array glowed purple, and Li also closed his eyes, trying to find the operation pattern of some blood clan spells from the magic circle.

The bloodlines of the Rice family all held their breath and watched the whole process with wide eyes, after all, the promotion of the earl to the duke is not something that can be seen at any time.

As the magic array operated, Erantz continued to exert more force, and blood vessels gradually bulged on her skin, making her appearance more and more terrifying.

During Li's exploration, as a strange energy passed through every line in the magic circle, the entire magic circle released a huge attraction, and from the appearance, the purple light of the magic array was so strong that it was almost impossible to see the appearance of the countess in the array.

Immediately after, all the light sources around seemed to be absorbed by the magic circle, and the people on the platform felt that it was pitch black around them, and Xiao Hei on the lake couldn't help but get closer so as not to miss any details.

A pillar of white light shone down from the moon and shone straight on the magic circle, and the vision of heaven and earth shook everyone's eyes a little.

"Ah!!!!h There was a scream, and everyone watched, and it seemed that the ritual had come to an end.

The pillar of light was cut off from the moon, like a column of water, and fell into the circle, and as the last ray of light disappeared, the surrounding darkness and the purple light on the circle were all gone.

Everyone's eyes were focused on the countess, she bowed her head and knelt on the ground and gasped, and before everyone could speak, she suddenly raised her head and roared, and a strong aura spread out all around.

Looking at it again, the bat wings behind the countess were a full circle larger, and runes emerged from the bat wings, rotating around her.

The countess let out a clear cry again, and countless threads of blood energy emerged from her body, which quickly condensed into a set of red full-covered armor on her body, and to match, in her left hand held a huge cavalry spear, the thick head of which was the size of a human head, and the long knife in her right hand was inconspicuous in comparison.

"Blood can be materialized, worthy of a Valkyrie who specializes in combat." Erwin sighed on the sidelines, and everyone sketched that picture in their minds, on the bloody medieval battlefield, a proud Valkyrie rode a war horse, constantly harvesting life on the battlefield.

"Do you need to help you consolidate the lower realm?" Li smiled and proposed to build yƬ.

The countess, oh no, the duchess turned her head to look at the old butler, and when she saw that he nodded slightly, she immediately turned back to Li and said, "Okay, come on, who will deal with me, you?" ā€

Li smiled and said, "Of course not, Dana, you went up and fought with Her Excellency the Duchess." ā€

"Okay." The big Indian man, whose hands had been itching for a long time, came across from the Duchess, and as he walked, a bright silver color spread all over his body, and as he stood opposite Elantz, a silver shining metal figure appeared in front of everyone.

Everyone got out of the middle position, and even Wu Zhiqi patted Xiao Hei over, and muttered: "Hehe, it's a little interesting." ā€

Erantz put the rifle back, a burden in such a fight, and she gave a knightly salute with her long knife on her chest, and Dana returned an Indian warrior salute.

The long knife was on the ground, and Erantz said: "Use all your strength, otherwise you will regret it, I am a blood clan specializing in hand-to-hand combat, and after being promoted to the duke, my strength and speed have been increased to another realm, if you are not careful, you will fail in an instant." ā€

Nodding, Dana assumed an attacking stance, his half-arched body ready to pounce at any moment. The duchess, who had conjured up another long knife from her left hand, was annoyed and waved him to hurry up.

Before her hand fell, a strong wind blew behind her, and the strong strength kept her from panicking, and the long knife was pushed behind her back to block Dana's claw.

As soon as the Duchess turned around and wanted to speak, there was another strong wind behind her, and they had never been in the habit of talking nonsense with the enemy on the battlefield, except for John.

The momentary carelessness made the duchess fall behind, and there were already 5 Dana on the battlefield attacking her, unlike what she imagined, none of these 5 people were phantoms, claws, knives, axes, foot knives, bows and arrows, these 5 Dana also used different weapons, and the stormy attack made her concentrate on defense.

The surrounding blood clans all frowned, this is different from what they imagined at the beginning, when did one-on-one become one-on-five, the strength is not weak, only the battle situation Erantz can feel that only one strength is slightly greater, it should be the body, but the weapons of these people have been changing, and the body has changed the direction of attack in a blink of an eye, making it difficult for her to find a pattern to fight back.

The old butler couldn't stand it anymore, coughed, and nodded to her: "You are now a duke, not an earl." ā€
