Volume 1: The Lost El Dorado Chapter 45: The Vampire Strikes
It seems that it is no longer clear where the love-hate relationship between werewolves and vampires originates.
Webster's Observations, a collection of strange races, tells the story of twin brothers from the ancestors of the werewolves and vampires, who devoutly believed in the Blood Lord Vraldo.
But such devotion attracted the enemies of the Blood Lord Vraldo, the jealousy of Lady Tillarry, in order to draw the two brothers into his side. The jealous lady Tillari transforms into a wonderful woman and travels to the village of the two brothers.
Just as flowers always attract bees, Tilari's first appearance in the village caught the attention of the two brothers. But at that time, the younger brother's mind was more about how to please the Blood Lord Vraldo, and not much attention was paid to the beauty that Tilari had become.
However, this is not difficult for Tillarry. After a coincidence arranged by Tillarry, the two brothers who eventually fell in love with Tillarary chose to betray the Blood Lord and dedicate their faith to the jealous lady Tillarry.
The betrayal of the two brothers is something that the Blood Lord cannot endure. But with the protection of the jealous lady, the Blood Lord is helpless. However, the jealous lady did not need the faith of the two brothers. So, after taunting the Blood Lord, Tillari no longer provided protection to the two brothers.
So, the two brothers, who had no protection, were captured by the Blood Lord. Faced with the two brothers who betrayed him, the Blood Lord Vlardo did not choose to kill the two brothers, but instead cast a curse that turned both brothers into bloodthirsty monsters and enemies for generations.
But that's just one of Webster's Stories, and there's a lot of other material that describes the origins of vampires and werewolves as bizarre things. But there is no doubt that between vampires and werewolves, they will definitely kill each other when they meet.
"Uncle Baker, do you feel it?"
"Well, Carl, I can smell the irritating smell of vampires even from a distance!"
"Arthur, it's getting late, you go to bed with your mother, okay?" Baker crouched in front of Arthur, a smile on his face.
"Oh, then I'm sleeping with Mom, Dad, you have to come quickly. Big brother Carl, you have to go to bed early, too. Arthur, who was led by Anne's hand to the inner room, waved to Baker and said to Carl.
"Good night, my darling. ”
"Good night, Dad. Good night, big brother Carl. ”
"Good night, Arthur. ”
After saying goodnight to each other, looking at Arthur who walked into the inner room, Baker turned his head, there was no smile on his face, and he was full of terrifying killing intent. Karl also took out a holy silver dagger and prepared for battle.
"My stupid brother, do you feel it?" said Andrei, with a look of disgust on his face.
"Shut up, damn Andre, I can feel it!" Andrew said angrily.
Although there was still some distance from the target hut, the brothers Andrew and Andre already sensed that there was an aura in the hut that was very disgusting to them, and if there was no mistake, there must have been a filthy werewolf living there, and maybe it was the werewolf who killed the hapless William.
"Damn, William, that stupid fellow, didn't tell us such important information. My father also said that he had no rebellious heart. He must have been dissatisfied with the outcome of that duel, so he wanted to trap us. If he weren't dead, I'd have to cramp him!" said Boss Andrew, scolding, without the grace of a vampire.
It's no wonder that Andrew was furious, from the feeling just now, Andrew knew that there was definitely a powerful werewolf hidden in that wooden house. Although today is not the night of the full moon, the werewolf's combat power will not reach its peak, but the werewolf who can make himself feel irritated is definitely a powerful werewolf. In this way, there will definitely be losses for his own men.
With Andrew's current power, the loss of a vampire baron is not something he can afford. Andrew's power in Luvance Castle is not very strong, although there are factors of suppression by his father John III, and there are also some reasons for Andrew himself. After all, a vampire with the strength of a viscount is far inferior to a vampire with an earl.
The two baron vampires brought by Andrew today are already his power-like strength, but his twin brother Andre brought one-fifth of his strength. His loss of one or two is not a break for him, and if he loses one, it will definitely be a fatal blow to Andrew.
Just as Andrew was angry because William's information was inaccurate, Andre on the side spoke: "Oh, my dear brother, why do you have such a big temper, is it because there is a werewolf here? Maybe he can even raise his brother's strength to an earl!"
"Or is it that my brother is afraid that his men will die at the hands of that werewolf, and he will make himself unhappy in Luvans Castle? If you have my strength, then you won't have such troubles. Andrei continued to sneer.
"Shut up! Andre don't think that you are higher than me, you can laugh at me like this, as long as I can marry one of the thirteen clans, then I will make you shut up your foul mouth as soon as possible!" Andrew threatened.
"Marriage to a vampire viscount who has never been able to become an earl?" Andre laughed, "Oh, my stupid brother, I thought I was just a little stupid to you, and now to say more to you is an insult to me!"
"You!" Andrew was so angry by Andre's words that he almost couldn't control his flight and fell to the ground. Looking at Andre flying in front of him, Andrew's eyes were full of resentment, "My dear brother, I will make you regret it!"
While Andrew and Andre were arguing, they had already flown over the cabin. Look at the wooden stakes around the wooden house, the garlic hanging on the wooden stakes, and the hidden smell of silver. Andrei's face was full of arrogance, it turned out that he was just a vain werewolf, trying to harm the great vampire with the imagination of these ignorant mortals.
Aside from the fact that silver or more has the primary effect on vampires, neither garlic nor stakes can have any effect on vampires. And unblessed silver can't do much damage to vampires. The dagger that could kill William was obviously a silver dagger blessed by the power of light, and that person was inserted into what was indeed the fatal point of a vampire, the heart of a vampire!
Firmly in front of the cabin, Andre and Andrew did not choose to risk attacking it. Andre glanced at his brother, who didn't make any movement at all, and a hint of mockery appeared on the corner of his mouth.
With a casual move, a dark cloud appeared in the cloudless and windless night sky, and countless vampire bats began to rush towards the cabin. Behind Andrei, one of the standing Blood-Eating Golems also began to move towards the cabin. These blood-eating golems cursed by vampire toxin are stiff and bloodless in their faces, completely mechanical golems.
The dark clouds in the sky rushed like a flood that broke the embankment, rushing towards the lonely cabin. But the moment it touched the cabin, countless lightning flashes erupted, killing all the vampire bats that came into contact with the power grid.
"It turns out that there are helpers, but such a rudimentary magic array can't stop the impact of my little cuties. Seeing the magic array appear, although Andre was a little surprised in his heart, he also felt that it was expected, and the person who could get the blood source crystal should not be the werewolf he felt, but should be a magician. As for why a magician was able to kill a baron vampire with his bare hands, Andrei automatically ignored it.
As Andrei said, the power grid that protected the cabin lasted only a few seconds, and after electrocuting dozens of vampire bats, it shattered under the impact of endless vampire bats. The black tide washed away and destroyed the cabin without hindrance!
Casually knocking away the wreckage of a log cabin that flew over, Andre glanced at his brother Andrew, who still didn't make any moves, and confidently walked towards the log cabin surrounded by vampire bats.
But just as Andre was about to walk into the vampire bat swarm, a huge black shadow flew towards him, feeling the breath of the black shadow, Andrei's slender brows furrowed, the black shadow was the blood food puppet that had just walked into the vampire bat swarm. I didn't expect to be killed now, and I wanted to throw it in my face.
A blood-colored mist erupted from Andre's right palm, instantly devouring the Blood Food Golem, and after absorbing the few blood energy, Andre let the vampire bats disperse, along with the remnants of the Blood Food Golem's body that Andre had absorbed all the blood in his body.
At the moment when the vampire bats dispersed, Andrei felt a danger coming from the place where he had been a cabin. Filthy werewolves, no matter how much you dodge, you can't escape the end of your death. Andrei smiled cruelly, then his hands merged, and a blood-colored mist thicker than the blood-eating puppet that had just devoured the blood food puppet erupted from Andrei's hands and rushed towards it.
As the blood-colored mist began to fill in front of his eyes, Andrei drew his weapon and quickly retreated. After all, he didn't think that this simple blood-sucking mist could devour a powerful werewolf.
A terrifying wolf howl broke through the blood-colored mist, and Baker had returned to his werewolf appearance, his scarlet eyes full of desire to kill. The rough hands had turned into wolf claws, and the sharp claws shimmered dangerously in the moonlight.
"Hmph!" Andre snorted coldly when he saw Baker rushing out of the mist, and pounced on the werewolf Baker with a long sword in his hand. Andrew's men, the vampire baron who had been standing still, saw his master fighting with the werewolves, and also spread his bat's wings and joined the fight.
Although his younger brother has already fought with werewolves, Andrew still has no intention of joining the fight, but this does not mean that Andrew is unwilling to help Andre because of the conflict with his younger brother. Rather, there is an enemy lurking in the shadows, and Andrew must find the magician and kill him. Otherwise, the hidden mages will still pose a threat to them.
As creatures of the night, vampires are the most sensitive to changes in their surroundings, and no disturbance can escape the perception of vampires. Although the battle between Andre and Baker affected some of them, Andrew was able to sense Carl's presence after sensing it for a while.
"Found you, male rat with AB blood type!" Andrew smiled cruelly and turned his head to the two men behind him, and Andrew began to walk forward. Andrew's speed was not fast, as if he wanted to give Carl a chance to escape, but in an instant, Andrew's figure disappeared from Carl's sight.
In the next second, Andrew's figure appeared behind Carl. Gently opening his arms to embrace Carl in his arms, Andrew opened his fangs and bit down on the blood-pumping artery in Carl's neck.
"Bang", just as Andrew was about to reach Carl, a puff of smoke suddenly erupted from Carl's body. The smoke mixed with the holy silver was instantly sucked into Andrew's body, along with the two vampire barons who wanted to sneak up on Carl with their master.
"I didn't expect vampires to be such a stupid race, I only slaughtered one vampire two days ago, and today I sent three more vampires to the door!" Carl, who appeared on Andrew's right, said with a smile.
"Damn human, you're no longer qualified for my first hug," Andrew roared angrily, his otherwise graceful face now only a twisted and pained expression. Andrew originally wanted to turn Carl into his subordinate and give Carl a first hug. Such a mage vampire would be a powerful help for him, but he didn't expect to make himself so uncomfortable now.
The holy silver that was sucked into his body was like boiling hot oil, constantly burning the soft flesh of Andrew's body. This feeling made Andrew unable to keep his composure, and now he just wanted to break Carl to pieces. However, Andrew ignored a problem, that is, as a mage, not only did the other party not worry that he would not be able to release the mage in front of the extremely fast vampire, but his attitude was extremely arrogant.
A pair of pitch-black bat wings with a trace of blood lines spread out behind Andrew's back, and after roaring in the sky, Andrew rushed towards Carl, and Andrew's two subordinates, because they only had the strength of the baron, the holy silver that was sucked into the body caused great damage to the two of them, and they could no longer join the battle, they could only stand in place. However, they were able to drive the Blood-Eating Golems and the Vampire Bats to help Andrew.
Seeing Andrew rushing towards him, Carl seemed a little "flustered", and the staff in his hand was dancing wildly, wanting to release a spell to block Andrew. But there is no difference between a mage who can't calm down and recite a spell and a swordsman who has no hands. Andrew had already flown over Carl, but the staff in Karl's hand still didn't have any elemental power.
"Die, human!" Andrew roared, his sword turning towards Karl's head.
"I'm not wrong when I say that vampires are a stupid race. Just as the long sword in Andrew's hand was about to slash at Karl's head, Karl suddenly raised the staff in his hand, and then the staff turned into a long sword with a glimmer of light in Andrew's stunned expression.
The sound of gold and iron intertwined above Karl's head, and Andrew's longsword slashed at the enemy sword without accident. With a flick of his wrist, Carl brought Andrew's sword down.
"Aren't you supposed to be a magician?" Andrew, who couldn't get a shot, didn't fall in love, but left Carl's attack range.
"Who told you I'm a magician?" Karl chuckled, "Tell me, which family are you a vampire, and why did you come here at this time?"
Karl pointed at Andrew and said, "Answer truthfully, maybe I will leave you a whole corpse!"
"I'm the eldest son of the Luvance family, Andrew Luvans!Stupid human, you still want to kill me?As long as you kneel down in front of me now and contribute that blood crystal to me, then I can pardon you for killing William!" Although he was a little shocked in his heart, Andrew still pretended to be indifferent on the surface, and even wanted to rely on the prestige of the Luvans family to threaten Carl to hand over the blood crystal.
"You mean this thing?" Carl took the Blood Source Crystal from the spatial ring and tossed it casually in his hand.
At the moment when the blood source crystal appeared, all the vampires present were shocked, and Andre, who was fighting with the werewolf Baker, was hit by Baker because his movements stalled, and his left arm was almost scratched off by Baker's sharp wolf claws.
Andrew standing in front of Carl was even more unbearable than Andre, now he had forgotten his mission, and his red eyes only had the blood crystal in Carl's hand. And the two vampire barons behind Andrew directly lost their minds, turned into vampire monsters, and rushed straight to Carl.
"It's not just a stupid race, it's a monster!" After kicking one of the vampires into the air, Karl plunged his sword into the heart of the other vampire baron. Looking at the vampire who had been drained of blood by the sword and turned into a dried corpse, Carl raised his head and stared at Andrew, "Do you want to be like this?"
After seeing the tragic situation of his subordinates, Andrew's consciousness affected by the Blood Crystal recovered slightly. Just as Andrew wanted to say something, Carl had already disappeared in place and appeared in front of Andrew, "It's too late to ask for mercy!" As soon as the words fell, the sword in Carl's hand stabbed Andrew in the heart.
