Greentown Westside.

When darkness fell, evil once again enveloped the sinful land.

With the changes in the situation around Green City in the past half a year, this urban area that gathers the evil existence in the south of the entire Nolan Empire has ushered in another new life.

Turmoil is the breeding ground for evil.

Countless lives have been lost in the war, but the unstable times have led to a thriving state in a land that cannot be illuminated by the sun, because the city guards have lost sight of how many dark lives lurk in this area.

Cultists, necromancers, underground gangs, dark races, all kinds of unspeakable darkness bloom in the purest evil in this ungoverned land.

Black Rose Estate.

This is the permanent base camp of the Dark Covenant, and has been classified as an unprovoked area in the Southern Side, as the manor is said to be the residence of a transcendent crown.

That's right, a transcendent who is as powerful as a transcendent mage in Green City.

And this transcendent is recognized by the Demon Heart Leader, Level 19 Heart Eater Wales.

And the Mind Eater has repeatedly expressed his respect for the Crown in public, and has repeatedly reiterated that no one is allowed to interfere with the Covenant of Darkness.

This terrifying level 19 Mind Eater wasn't just talking, at least hundreds of people had been hanged by him for offending the Covenant of Darkness in the past year or so.

So even if His Majesty Iro's crown didn't appear in the gaze of the Southern Underworld, it still intimidated everyone.

The troubadour still tales about him.

After a year of recuperation, especially when the Crimson Mage Tower secretly provided magic scrolls for the Dark Covenant to sell.

The Covenant of Darkness has grown from strength to strength, with more than 8,000 people now numbered.

This scale is definitely huge when there are major nobles and the city lord's mansion under the jurisdiction of the city lord's mansion on the surface.

And because of the leadership and support of Daybreak City behind the scenes, the Dark Covenant at this time was transformed into a tightly organized underground force in the form of a slightly loose alliance at the beginning.

The Covenant of Darkness is currently dominated by the extremely mysterious, legendary Elo Crown.

But on weekdays, the main control is level 17 Grote.

Stanley returned to Green City in mid-April after Reid had set up a plan for Shadow of Daybreak and took over the Dark Pact, with Grlot relegated to second place.

As a second-generation bloodline with outstanding intelligence, Stanley's status in the blood clan is not low, and Grote, who knows Stanley's wisdom, has no objections, but is extremely welcome.

The Bloodline has a deep obsession with becoming stronger, but they don't value simple things like power or wealth so much.

The main hall of the Black Rose Manor.

Dressed in black priest's robes, he sat at the head of the long table, and the scar on his face that looked like a centipede across the entire face looked extremely hideous.

The large hall was dimly lit by the dim light of the magic lamps in the room, and the lavish chairs carved in delicate reliefs were neatly arranged in two rows around the long black tables, but they were empty at the moment.

The carpet made of pure black monster fur will collapse slightly when stepped on, and it is extremely comfortable to step on as if stepping on a soft quilt.

The white columns and walls of the hall are covered with colorful paintings, mostly portraits and war scenes.

But the vivid colors of the oil painting seem a bit enchanting and eerie in the bleak environment at this time, much like the evil place where some ancient legend gave birth to a cannibal demon.

Babble~

A semicircular white door carved with a two-horned demon motif is slowly pushed open.

Stomping~

Stomping~

A huge figure stepped into the hall in the dim light, and the thick and fluffy carpet could not block out the muffled sound of its heavy size.

Stanley, who was sitting at the main seat of the rectangular wooden table, was facing the door, and when he heard the voice, he raised his head slightly, and the hideous scar looked more and more terrifying in the light of the white candles lit on the table.

Stomp ~ Stomp ~ The figure wearing black full-body armor, 2.5 blades tall, like a giant, and a sense of oppression walked in front of Stanley.

The tone is dull.

"Stanley, someone brought it."

The only one who can call Stanley by his name in the Dark Covenant is Grot, a level 17 Northland warrior, no, now Grote is no longer a Northland warrior, but has the same profession as Stanley - Scarlet Hunter.

Stanley, Grote, these two generals of Daybreak City passed the test of the will of the Scarlet Hunter with a strong will, and successfully transferred to become the strongest class of the Bloodline.

It's just that the two of them still maintain their original dress habits.

The Crimson Hunter profession is not a fixed mage or warrior, as long as you want, not to mention a warrior and a mage, you can be an assassin.

The Crimson Hunter's skills are all-stat improvements, not targeted ones, so the potential to be tapped is huge.

"Hmm", Stanley nodded slightly, and a little imperceptible excitement flashed in his deep eyes, "Bring it in." ”

Grote turned around and waved slightly, and the warriors in full-body armor outside the door immediately walked into the room with about twenty tall figures who were chained and shackled.

The figures were dressed in clothes sewn from animal skins, their bodies covered with gray-black hair, their muscles bulging high like steel, and their heads covered by black bags could not be seen in their appearance.

In the dimly lit hall, surrounded by brightly colored oil paintings, this classical room appears in front of me with a slightly inconsistent picture.

The lives of those wrapped in bags and dressed in hides were out of step with the elaborate decoration that surrounded them.

There was even a slight smell of sweat in the air.

Stanley's eyes slowly became cold when he saw this scene, and a little scarlet appeared in his black eyes.

"All level 14??"

Grote nodded slightly, the body of this level 17 warrior was more oppressive than the 2-blade-tall big man in front of him.

"All 23 of them are level 14, and I bought them from the Colosseum controlled by the Demon Heart.

These orcs are members of the orc's elite troops, and these orcs seem to be out on an extremely secret mission and are spotted halfway through.

They also slaughtered a village before they were captured, killing more than 800 people.

When the Green City Guards returned from capturing them, the Demon Heart, which sensed the value of these orcs, used their connections to buy them off.

It took us a full thousand Two-Ring Magic Scrolls and Iro's name to get it from Welsh the Mind Eater. ”

23 level 14 orc warriors...... Stein's eyes narrowed slightly, he didn't know what kind of mission these orcs had to carry out to use such elite power.

But now these people are his trophies.

Turning his head slightly, he glanced at the Dark Covenant warriors who were escorting these orcs in the room.

"You guys go out first."

"Yes, Master Stanley."

Babbling ~ bang.

The semicircular door of the chamber carved with a devil's relief closes.

When the arrivals left, all that was left of the room was the flickering candle flame on the table, and the twenty-three orcs with their heads covered in black sacks.

Grote glanced at Stanley, did not speak, and stood silently aside, as if waiting for something.

Stanley stood up gracefully and slightly straightened the folds on the black priest's robe due to his long sitting.

Then the momentum changed suddenly, brushing ~ demonic bat wings stretched out behind him, the fangs in his mouth were like the sharpest daggers, and the scarlet in his eyes carried a coldness that could make even warriors with strong willpower tremble.

The true identity of the Bloodline is revealed.

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became gloomy, and a boundless chill permeated the hearts of the orcs who were trapped in chains and even had their mouths gagged.

Woo woo woo~

As if sensing that a crisis was approaching, the orcs were struggling desperately, but the sturdy chains were simply not something they could shake.

Stanley pulled out a cross-sword that was placed cross-legged on a pillar for decoration, and walked up to the first orc.

The orcs, bound in chains, have no ability to resist in the slightest, this is a herd of lambs to the slaughter.

Stanley's red eyes narrowed slightly.

The sword light flashed, and a cold sword tip appeared behind the first orc.

Puff~

Blood splattered.

The sudden killing made the room bloody, but what was even more shocking was that the blood flowing from the orc's heart did not fall to the ground, but instead rose into the air, surging directly towards Stanley.

At this time, Stanley's body rose with the power of scarlet like a demonic flame.

The two met in the air, silently.

The blood disappeared from sight as if it had raindrops scattered into mist.

However, the vanished blood did not really disappear, but was transformed into pure energy by the Crimson Power, and that energy was integrated into the Crimson Power, and finally absorbed by Stanley, the owner of the Crimson Power.

After spreading his batwings, Stanley, after devouring the energy in the blood, slowly increased his momentum and became more and more powerful.

The scarlet in his eyes also has a bit of murderous intent at the moment.

Crimson Hunter's limited skill, King of the Hunt, can devour blood and permanently increase his strength after killing enemies.

Even Li De believes that this short introduction is the key to what sets the Crimson Hunter apart from the other three Bloodline classes.

Devouring blood increases strength, which is indescribably strong for a bloodline with no experience to level up.

It's just that Li De has been busy dealing with the affairs of Daybreak City, and he doesn't have much time to experiment with this skill trait.

Of course, the skill of King Hunt also has certain limitations, such as only being able to absorb the blood of a life that is not much different in level.

And the lower the level, the lower the power gained.

The minimum difference cannot be 3 levels, and the energy consumed beyond level 3 is so weak that it is negligible.

In other words, as a level 15 Crimson Hunter, Stanley must hunt life levels above level 12 to gain power, and anything below level 12 is completely useless.

During his time back in Greentown, Stanley, an extremely intelligent native, naturally sensed the potential of this skill.

Directly used the power of the Dark Covenant to purchase hundreds of high-level slaves for him in Green City, whether it was orcs, dwarves, or monsters, or human slaves, he did not refuse to come.

After months and countless kimpuks spent on the Dark Covenant, Stanley is already on the threshold of upgrading thanks to the characteristics of the King of the Hunt.

And today, these 23 orcs who spent a lot of money and even used Li De's other identity - the 14th level orcs exchanged for the crown of Yiluo, are the opportunity to step into the 16th step.

"Not enough, not enough......" Stanley shifted his gaze to the remaining orcs after devouring the blood energy of an orc.

The Bloodline is a pure dark race, and actions such as sucking blood, which seem extremely evil to humans, are inherently evil and righteous.

Because it is the nature of the blood race to suck blood, just like a wolf eats a sheep and a sheep eats grass, there is no absolute justice and evil, this is just the survival mode of the race.

After becoming the Crimson Hunter, in Stanley's eyes, all races with blood flowing in their bodies have become "lambs", although some lambs are countless times stronger than him......

The bat's wings behind Stanley unfurled, his eyes turned scarlet, and a mage's hand condensed in the air, and the mage's hand slashed through the crosssword.

Ahh

The remaining 22 levels reached level 14, and the group of orc warriors, who did not know what secret mission they were going to perform, turned into pale corpses after swinging their swords.

The blood in the orc's body flew upside down under the power of magic at this moment, and was frantically devoured by the power of scarlet.

The blood of these orcs became a stream of pure blood-colored energy, which Stanley absorbed and turned into nourishment for his growth.

The strength in Stanley's body increased firmly and steadily after gaining a large amount of ability, and his breath was rising little by little, and even Grote, who was at level 17 at the end, felt a little dignified.

When all the blood that flowed backwards into the sky melted like flames in the scarlet power that burned outside his body.

Click~

As if the glass was shattered, a bottleneck that had imprisoned Stanley for a long time was forcibly broken by him at this time.

Level 16!!

Stanley's momentum suddenly increased, and the terrifying power unleashed in this hall like a fire-breathing dragon burning the earth.

Several oil paintings framed with glass on the walls of the house clicked ~ crisp and exploded at this time, and they were directly suppressed by the momentum.

The glass shards splashed in the sky, reflecting a little bit of light under the illumination of the magic lamp, like a sparkling diamond, and the room was even a little brighter because of the reflection.

In the midst of the specks of light, Stanley's eyes snapped open, and his scarred face showed a bit of intoxication.

The power in the body flows like a magma eruption.

He got stronger.

At this time, Grote had already sensed Stanley's breath after the breakthrough - level 16.

was about to step forward to congratulate, but Stanley's face changed suddenly at this moment, the murderous intent in his heart permeated out, and the temperature in the air seemed to drop by more than ten degrees at this moment.

The blood energy that had just been devoured had a serious backlash at this moment, and the killing intent, resentment, and curse of those who had been devoured blood were surging like a tide.

The killing intent in Stanley's heart was magnified tenfold at this moment, and he even had a strong hallucination.

Even Grote, who was standing in front of him, looked like an enemy who was about to kill him.

Immeasurable negativity frantically hit Stanley's will at this moment.

He felt as if he was in hell, being bitten by countless evil spirits, and at the same time countless souls were yelling and cursing at him, roaring at him.

Stanley's proud will shook like a boat in a storm, ready to capsize at any moment.

Grote's face became extremely solemn when he saw this scene, and his hand unconsciously clenched the transcendent giant sword.

He didn't know what happened to White Stanley, but the killing intent of the other party couldn't be faked.

One minute, two minutes, time flows incredibly slowly.

It wasn't until it seemed like a century had passed that the infiltrating killing intent on Stanley's body slowly disappeared.

Stanley slowly closed his eyes and groaned for a full ten minutes before opening them again.

When he turned his head to look at Grote, his already pale face became even more ugly.

"No wonder His Majesty said that the Scarlet Hunter must pass the test of will.

The consequences of devouring blood to increase strength are too serious......"

Grote's eyes narrowed slightly when he heard Stanley's hoarse voice, "You mean to say that your killing intent just now was caused by sucking the blood of other lives?" ”

Stanley nodded, his momentum stabilizing at this point.

The dark red wings stretched out on the back are even more handsome.

"That's right, although we can devour blood-sucking to increase our strength, there are also certain drawbacks, and the biggest drawback is that after upgrading, the killing intent, resentment, madness and other negative energy accumulated by devouring blood before will be countered at critical moments.

If you can't resist it, you are likely to be completely blinded by endless killing machines, and you will destroy all the lives around you.

When that killing intent hits, only a firm will and a fearless faith can withstand it. ”

Grouter nodded slowly, but was not intimidated.

As a former Northland warrior, his firm will has long been engraved in his bones.

Fearless, fearless!

A moment later, Stanley, who was slightly familiar with the surging power in his body, returned to his human form with a satisfied gaze.

looked at Grote, who was still pondering, and directly changed the subject.

"Grote, what do you think of the order given by the crown this time?"

Give up raiding the big nobles and start with the small nobles.

The delay in the Shadow of Daybreak project has put Stanley under a lot of pressure.

And the order given by Li De undoubtedly pointed out a new path for the stalled plan.

"His gaze is often beyond the ordinary, and he can always see the points that we ignore."

Grote pondered for a moment and then said slowly, "The protection around the great nobles is too tight, and these nobles who hold power are the targets that almost every sect will strive for.

After all, once the other party believes in their own sect, it can bring them great benefits.

As a result, the nobles were surrounded by priests almost all the time, plus they had deep pockets and a lot of sacred equipment on their bodies.

We've been stuck on both of these for months......."

Grote's thinking is very clear, although he is a warrior, but he can survive decades of conquest, just relying on strong combat power, then he has died I don't know how many times.

"The petty aristocracy is different, especially the down-and-out aristocracy, who we can reach whenever we want.

And we only need to have a bloodline for the first time, and the situation on the side of the little nobles will be opened. ”

Speaking of this, Grote's eyes showed a little regret, "The only pity is that the power of the bloodline in our body has not yet recovered, and we need to wait until the winter moon of this year to make the next first hug." ”

In fact, this is also the key to why they can't open the situation in Green City.

Except for Li De, the other blood clans can only embrace for the first time once a year, and they have embraced them for the first time last year in the Winter Moon, and now the special bloodline power in their bodies is far from recovering.

So they can only rely on soft infiltration, rather than directly turning each other into bloodborne.

Stanley nodded in satisfaction, and Grote's words were very much in line with his words.

Then a mysterious smile appeared on Stanley's face.

"Grote, maybe we don't have to wait any longer for the Winter Moon to have our first first hug."

A little puzzlement flashed in Grote's eyes, and before he could ask Stanley, he took the initiative to reveal the mystery.

"In the process of sucking the blood, I can feel the special blood force in my body revive, and now, I can do my first hug."

Stanley's eyes flashed with excitement as he said this, "Perhaps, you can also try, the characteristics of the King of the Hunt skill make up for the innate shortcomings of the blood clan." ”

The first possession is definitely the most powerful weapon of the blood clan, but because of the problem that the power of the bloodline can only be embraced for the first time once a year, the number of blood clans has not been able to increase rapidly.

At this time, Stanley found out that devouring blood could solve this problem, how to be unhappy.

While this discovery may only apply to the Crimson Hunter, it is currently sufficient to open up the situation in Greentown.

He was already planning to report to Li De immediately, and it was no exaggeration to say that if this discovery could be developed and applied to ordinary blood clans, it would completely change the fate of the blood clan.

Hearing this, Grote's eyes flashed with a surprise that could not be concealed.

"Praise Your Majesty!! This must be the light of the crown shining on us!! ”

"Grote, if you send this news back to Dawnbreaker immediately, Your Majesty will be very happy.

In addition, you have to ask people to choose a human aristocrat who was once extremely brilliant, but has recently fallen into decline.

The shadow of dawn will bloom with brilliant brilliance from today. ”

Stanley's eyes were deep.

None of the humans in Greene could have predicted that a plan for vampires to infiltrate the human hierarchy would begin tonight.

And they will never even know that some nobles who are high up and respected by countless people have become dark beings for a certain period of time that they regard as mortal enemies.

Set a small goal first, such as remembering in 1 second: book guest residence
