241. The dark tide is rising

General Lupos, the mysterious agent of this place, has been waiting underground for more than 400 years in order to awaken the "Lord" from a distant time and space.

Beneath him was a metal "manhole cover" with a dull golden sheen, which was now pierced by the moonlight, revealing a bright silver glow.

As the moon rose in the middle of the sky, the powerful tidal wave energy penetrated Lupos's body, lifting his spirits.

The mysterious magnetic field of the moon interferes strongly with his body, affecting hormone secretion, as well as the electrolyte balance of body fluids and excitable spirits.

Lupos stared at the metal manhole cover and then at his palm.

He was a little impatient, and the armor on his body rose and fell with his chest.

"It has to be soon, they're coming......" he muttered to himself, his eyes shining with a glint and the joints of his palms clicking.

"Poof! Click! ”

Sharp black claws poked out of his hand bones, gradually turning into a slender curved blade. He used the black claw to lightly slash the wrist of his other hand.

One drop, two drops, and in a moment countless blood streamed down, and soon turned into a trickle.

With his shaky palm, he pinched his other wrist, and the momentum around him was full of momentum, as if he wanted to accelerate the flow of his own blood.

Blood flowed down his fingertips to the edge of the metal manhole cover, and countless beads of blood, as if alive, writhed and converged and combined, trembling and condensing into a huge blood cake.

The extremely thin bright red round cake, at the moment of condensation, rose in the air at the same time, turning into a cloud of blood mist, as if it was controlled by an invisible force in the air, and scattered evenly.

Countless thin red lines appeared on the metal manhole cover, like sinuous blood veins replicating a dark image in the air

Lupos closed his eyes, his mouth muttering, and his hands were thick and deformed, black steel burrs sticking out of the surface of his skin, each standing like a steel needle.

It's a hair that even the strongest steel blade can't cut off.

"My lord! Bearing witness to the ancient oath of the inhabitants of the moon, tonight you will wake up and break the bonds of the thousand-year-old covenant......"

Lupos continued

At the beginning of the month, the blood and qi begin to be refined, and the guard qi begins; When the moon is full, the blood is solid and the muscles are strong. Adjust qi and blood due to the time of day. "

"Up!"

Lupos stretched his hands upward, and countless hideous phantoms appeared around him, and his sharp teeth were like the devil opening his huge mouth.

The metal manhole cover under him was disturbed by the breath of the ghost, and the "buzzing" sound was endless, and it began to vibrate regularly.

In an instant, all the screaming ghosts burrowed into the manhole cover from the air that filled the hall.

"Click!"

There was a fine streak of metal that spread.

The bright red blood line advanced along the widened metal slit, and met several small protruding strips on the surface of the manhole cover, and after being briefly blocked, the blood line gently bounced through its edge, making a metal grinding sound.

At the same time, 6 metal strips bounced upwards about 1 cm at the same time, and the 6 traps slowly advanced towards the center of the circle.

However, when it was only a few centimeters away from the center of the circle, the mechanism stopped moving forward and did not advance for half a minute.

"Whew-"

General Lupos's hideous face was as if it was drenched with water, and beads of sweat the size of beans rolled down.

"Nope! Still doesn't work? He roared in a deep voice.

"Goo-dong!"

The next moment, he fell to his knees on the ground, his head hanging down as if he was unwilling, and his exhausted body was trembling slightly.

After a while, he suddenly realized something, and looked up at the narrow gap in the stone castle that stood on the opposite side, and could faintly see the white peaks outside, and the leaves of the trees swaying in the wind.

The moon was obscured by dark clouds in the distance.

"Well, it doesn't seem that my strength has not arrived, but that the time has not yet come...... I'm so anxious. ”

The body's qi and blood will be enriched with the fullness of the month, and tend to weaken with the deficiency.

This is still the case for ordinary people, and it has a huge impact on their family.

This is the ancient prohibition of their clan, and their opponents are also waiting for this moment, picking this time to come and regain the lost dignity of the past.

After tonight, everything will be decided.

The ancestors of their clan had an uncommon blood in their veins - they were creatures that once lived in the dreamland, the dark side of the moon, and had a vast ruling area before the birth of humans, which was different from the current moon.

"Whoosh"

Outside, a flare burst through the sky, a signal, a danger signal, the other side has come to the door.

Lupos's heart trembled, and his brow furrowed.

The group of demons who claimed to be elegant and holy came too quickly, and it seemed that they wanted to smash themselves and this ancient castle that had stood for thousands of years tonight.

They're bound to get it!

He was even thinking about strategic evasion, after all, the other party came prepared, and his own strength and numbers were definitely at a disadvantage.

In this world, the one who can stand and laugh to the end is the real winner.

"No, never!" The Lord hasn't woken up yet, and I'm going to try one last time! ”

Their clan has noble blood flowing in their bodies, and even if they die in battle, they can't lose their arrogant nature.

Losing one's temperament is like losing one's chastity, and once it is lost, it can never be regained.

Lupos clenched his fists and swung his fist into the air, this humble idea of survival quickly dissipated from the bottom of his heart, he was really unwilling!

The fist wind carried a whirring airflow, causing the lights of this hidden place to flicker and flicker.

Suddenly, he noticed a shadow that seemed to flash rapidly on the ground, which made him suddenly feel vigilant in his heart.

Looking up at the long gaps, the clouds still obscured the full moon, and all that could be heard outside was the wind, and the branches of the trees could be seen shaking in the wind.

"Huh? Is it a delusion? ”

His nose tilted slightly, and his highly sensitive sense of smell did not let him smell a trace of unfamiliar smell.

At this time, he had a feeling of danger, which he had not felt in hundreds of years.

An animal-like instinct rose up in his body, and he quickly retreated behind a cold stone pillar, letting the shadows cover him.

"Boom!"

After two white flashes outside, a thunderclap sounded, and a torrential rain came unexpectedly.

Lupos couldn't help but shake his head secretly, a muffled thunder actually made him so panicked?

"Hehe, what's wrong with me?"

Their ancient ancestors were worshipped as gods by humans.

Whenever the power of the tides reaches the peak of the starry sky's energy, and the moonlight shines with a silvery glow, these human-looking creatures are activated by the restless and furious energy.

Just as he turned around and walked back to the metal manhole cover, he suddenly raised his head suddenly, and that inexplicable powerful coercion appeared again.

This time, it was not his delusion, because a long figure was falling diagonally on him.

There's a man floating in the air!

Shocked, Lupos took a few steps back, his steps staggering, and his back was pressed against a huge stone pillar.

"Who is it? Who's where! ”

A shocked and slightly panicked tone came out, and even Lupos, who had lived for hundreds of years, couldn't believe that he was making this voice?

How is it possible that this man is floating in the air?

He saw the lanky man in mid-air in the hall, his face reflected in the flickering lights.

His long black hair fluttered and he was dressed in a trench coat that seemed to be worn by nobles, wrapping around his emaciated body, but the hem was torn into strips of rags.

I wonder when he came in and how he floated in the air.

He suddenly realized that this young man was the person reported by the spies, and all the descriptions were consistent with the report.

He is the mysterious man who killed the minions of the "Secret Bloodblade".

Thinking of this, his voice trembled and asked, "Is that you, the one who killed that guy in town?" Who the hell are you? ”

"Hehβ€”it doesn't matter who I am." The man spoke, and a faint voice floated in.

Lupos was shocked, this was really a person, and a man with great power.

At this moment, the terrifying pressure was like a mountain, and he was overwhelmed. He felt like every cell in his body was going to get out of control.

After resisting for a while with all his strength, the huge coercion suddenly disappeared.

Lupos slowly recovered from the shivering and found that cold sweat was running down his back.

Still cautiously asked, "What did you say?" Are you friend or foe? ”

"Well, it depends on your attitude." The man's tone was still unfazed.

It's a surprise again.

This guy doesn't seem to be from those Blood Clans, otherwise, how could he possibly kill the Blood Clan's minions?

Moreover, what seems to be implied in his words, "Look what attitude you have"? This sentence made Lupos a little confused.

"What the hell are you doing here? Is it ......?"

"Didn't you come to deal with us?"

Lupos replied cautiously, his mood at the moment was indescribably complicated, this man's strength was a demon, and if he was not careful, he might be dissatisfied with the other party.

In this situation, especially in the face of the pressure of the earth, he didn't want to make another enemy.

"Against you? Ridiculous, why should I deal with you? Hahaha-"

"You guys aren't worthy."

After saying this, the man actually fell to the ground, and his feet happened to step on the metal manhole cover with the intricate pattern.

Silent footsteps, like a cat.

Lupos' eyes glanced at the man's feet, which seemed to be a few centimeters above the ground, not really stepping on them.

What kind of power is this?

Who the hell is this man?

If he's not here to deal with himself, then is he here to help himself?

Countless questions filled his mind, and he was a little at a loss at the moment.

"Y-What do you want to do? Do you know what kind of existence we are? ”

Looking at the figure of the young man approaching step by step, this sentence subconsciously blurted out.

As soon as these words came out, Lupos himself felt a little regretful - what if these words made the other party feel threatened?

The other party's momentum alone made him feel extremely pressured.

Not an opponent of a magnitude at all.

Even with his mutated body, it is impossible to resist with all his might, let alone fight with him.

Even if he is really not afraid, but now that the enemy is present, how can he make one more strong enemy?

What a curse comes from the mouth!

However, the young man's next sentence made the last line of defense in his heart completely collapse.
