Chapter 37: Death Strikes (Part II)

Manfresse, once the richest man in the British Empire, was given a knighthood by George VI, during the Aberrations War a few decades ago, he gathered and hired a large number of scientists to conduct private biotechnology research, and through various means to seize the research results of the countries on the earth at that time, and finally successfully transformed himself, he has always believed in the occult He did not turn himself into a vampire like the official British Empire, but became the so-called "dark mage", in fact, it is an artificial mutation of the spiritual aspect, As a result, he was able to artificially possess powerful psychic powers, while his research team developed a special virus that could animate dead corpse cells again, allowing him to assemble an army of dead corpses, similar to the legendary necromancer.

The reason why Manfreth transformed himself was not to fight against aberrant monsters and protect the people, but purely because he was afraid of death, this transformation not only gave him a strong psychic power, immune to his own Hell Seed aberration, but also greatly extended his lifespan, many rich and powerful people who were also afraid of death were collected by him and accepted the transformation, so the organization of the Death Council in the dark world was formed.

The biological modification of the members of the Death Council is mainly based on mental mutation, and they have the psychic power that can control the resurrected corpse, but their biggest weakness is also the psychic power, because those corpses that were resurrected by them with a special virus called "Undead Calamity" are under their control, but they will also be affected and even controlled by other psychic powers, as long as the owner of the psychic power can find the special frequency that controls the resurrected corpse, and the psychic power is one of the largest categories of heavenly hell abilities, More than one-tenth of the world's awakened people have abilities that belong to the category of psychic power, so the Death Council has to stay in the British Isles and dare not go out to develop, and the native psychic awakeners in the British Isles are either eliminated by them, or controlled or expelled.

Because of this, the Council of Death is extremely vigilant against the world's famous psychic power awakeners, carefully paying attention to the movements of each of them, and sparing no expense to collect all kinds of items that can resist the psychic power, if there is a chance to kill the psychic power awakeners, they will spare no effort, just like this time to lend the beast's pupil to Serena, hoping to use Serena's hand to get rid of Melissa, one of the world's strongest psychic powers.

After the Aberrations War, the Death Council and the Nightcrawlers divided the dark world of the British Isles equally, and they have always been close to each other, and they will unite in the event of an invasion by outside forces, but this does not mean that they are solid allies.

"Akito doesn't speak darkly, what do you want, Sir?"

Serena didn't want to continue to talk to Manfres, and Manfres's attitude also made her instinctively feel a little inappropriate, so she went straight to the point, anyway, she has enough confidence now.

"In that case, then I'll just say it."

Manfreth smiled and said, "I already know everything that happened to you Nightcrawlers, and I also know that Miss Serena, you don't want the Blood Clan to be swallowed up by the Apocalypse Council, and now that the three elders of the Blood Clan are all wiped out, I'm afraid that you alone will be unable to support it, this British Isles belongs to our Death Council and the Nightcrawlers, although the Apocalypse Council is huge, as long as we join forces, they may not be able to take advantage, after all, they don't dare to make too much trouble to attract the attention of the coalition government, So I'd like to come here to talk to Miss Serena about the merger of the Death Council with the Nightcrawlers. ”

"Merge?"

Serena raised her eyebrows and said, "Is the Council of Death merged into the Nightcrawler, or is the Nightcrawler merged into the Council of Death?" Hmph, if we don't want to be swallowed up by the Apocalypse Council, how can we go along with you necrophiles? ”

"I'm here to discuss with Miss Serena, so why do you insult people, Miss?"

Manfris suddenly took the crutches in his hand, and an invisible huge psychic power suddenly spread around him, and the group of well-groomed Knell Legionnaires behind him immediately let out a hoarse roar at the same time, and an obscure pale light shone in their eyes and mouth, which was a physical characteristic that their cells had been fully activated by the Undead Calamity virus!

Although the Nightcrawler and the Death Council are tied to the British Isles, due to their origins, the vampires of the Nightcrawlers are still firmly on the top of the Death Council despite the glory of the British Empire, and their way of prolonging their lives is much more popular than the Death Council's biological transformation, so it is far easier than the Death Council to win over officials and tycoons, and even the Apocalypse Council intends to annex it, but it only thinks of the Nightcrawler and treats the necromancers of the Death Council as nothing, This has always been a shame for Manfreis, and although he has no ambition to develop on the European continent, he has always regarded the British Isles as his own land, and he has not wanted to solve the vampires all these years and dominate the dark world of the British Isles.

But the three elders of the blood clan plus a "goddess of the moon" have a high-end combat power that is really powerful, that is two strong men with a seventh-order actual combat level and two sixth-order actual combat levels, and the Death Council has no capital to compete head-on with it in this regard, so he can only endure until he gets the news that there is a fire within the blood clan and Serena killed the three elders in one fell swoop.

If such an opportunity is missed, then he will not be Sir Manfreis, and he will take the opportunity to swallow the Nightcrawler, even if the Apocalypse Council comes to his door in the future, he can sell it for a good price!

At this point, Serena also saw Manfres's ambition, and it was superfluous to say anything at this time, and with a wave of her hand, all the blood guards immediately opened the safety bullets and loaded them, and two hydraulically armored towers also rose inside the manor, and the top of the towers each poked out two black hole muzzles, which were actually two twin large-caliber cannons!

"Since Miss Serena is not willing to settle it peacefully, then she has no choice but to go to war!"

With a snap of his fingers, Manfres's body was suddenly enveloped in the black mist gushing out, and Serena pulled out her gun like lightning and fired, the bullet shot straight into the black fog but was as unresponsive as a mud cow into the sea.

Dense gunfire rang out, and the guards opened fire in unison, this time the density and power of the fire were double that of the past, it was definitely military-level, and the rain of bullets enveloped all those Knell Legionnaires in it at once.

These soldiers are all wearing extremely strong high-density alloy armor, bullets hit and immediately sparks, these bullets carry a huge kinetic energy, even if the bullets are blocked by the armor, the impact caused by the kinetic energy will also lead to fractures and other serious injuries, but these soldiers are already dead, as long as they are not chopped into pieces, and the brain as a nerve center is not destroyed, they ignore any damage at all.

In the face of the rain of bullets, they began to charge, and the soldiers at the front held up an unusually strong alloy shield, and the bullets did not even leave a trace on it, and it seemed a little ridiculous to use cold weapons against automatic firearms, but at this time, this group of dead soldiers really did not fall behind at all.

Serena fired repeatedly, bullets piercing through gaps in shields with great precision and headshots to the dead soldiers, while the twin cannons on the manor's armored towers also fired, tearing apart the alloy shields and smashing the dead soldiers in the rear into pieces of rotten flesh.

The guards cheered excitedly, although this group of so-called Deathknell Legionnaires was tough, each corpse was specially genetically strengthened, and the skin was almost the same as steel, but they were still just scum in front of the large-caliber cannons, and their stiff and slow movements doomed them to be unable to dodge bullets as flexibly as vampires.

Is it really that simple?

Seeing those dead soldiers being beaten into rotten flesh in pieces, Serena suddenly had a trace of doubt in her heart.

"Intensify the fire, and at the same time send a vigilant detachment to search the surroundings, the Death Council cannot come to Manfris alone."

Serena gave the order while shooting, but as soon as her words fell, an exclamation suddenly came from the headset: "Miss Serena, it's not good-"

The next moment, I saw the two armored defense towers shake violently, and then they fell down with a "boom".
