The Imperial Study.

"It seems that there is silence on the side of the church of Somendir. It should be said that the whole city has quieted down. The vampire prince looked out the window and said indifferently.

"The center of the storm is always the calmest. "Behind the Duris.

"It's not time limit yet, so you can't talk about victory or defeat. That's what you want to say. The Vampire Prince nodded, "Although it must be affirmed that it is already remarkable that a few imps can do this, no matter how tenacious their perseverance is, they can't make up for the gap in strength." ”

"Oh, according to His Royal Highness, that girl and her friends will definitely not be able to pass this level. ”

"They don't know at all, Melissa is a more dangerous guy than Leon. ”

However, Duris does not seem to have any intention of continuing the discussion on this topic.

"It's still early, Your Highness the Prince, why don't we enjoy this wonderful game while we play against each other. ”

The Vampire Prince turned around and saw that Duris had placed a crystal chessboard on his desk, and 32 chess pieces carved from precious ivory had been placed on the crystal chessboard, neatly arranged.

"I can't ask for it. The Vampire Prince's interest suddenly rose, and he smiled and walked to the crystal chessboard on the desk.

Church of Somendir.

The swarms of bats flying around are once again coming together and merging with each other in an incredible way.

Melissa, who was restored to her prototype, stood up.

"Sleep with your poor companions, and wait in your sleep until the death knell rings in the middle of the night. Melissa didn't even look at Ray, she threw it out and walked straight in the direction of the church door. She has completed her mission, there is no need to stay in this place any longer, the only thing she needs to do is to return to her master.

High-heeled boots stomped on the floor, and the sound of "tuk-tuk" echoed throughout the church......

"Wait, wait. ”

Melissa stopped because she heard a faint shout from behind her, but it shouldn't have been.

"Just now...... You just ......"

The shout rang out again, a few decibels higher than before, indicating that Melissa had heard correctly. She turned around and saw that Ray, who was supposed to be asleep, actually held up his steel spear and straightened up one by one.

"No way. Melissa looked incredulous and shook her head repeatedly, "He has obviously suffered the attack of the 'Sleeping Sonar', and it is impossible for him to wake up by his own will unless I take the initiative to disarm it or wait until the effect is over." ”

"You just said...... Sleep with my companions, together, with you...... What is the meaning...... You, what the hell are you...... To Sophia...... What have you done?"

Ray finished his question in fits and starts. It was clear that even though he was awake now, the effects of forced sleep were still interfering with his senses, and Ray was extremely difficult to resist.

However, Melissa also noticed that Ray's left thigh was bleeding profusely, and he was holding the dagger in his left hand, which was stained with red blood. "He actually used self-harm to stimulate his pain sensation as a way to resist the 'sleeping sonar'!" Melissa finally understood why Ray, who was supposed to be asleep, woke up.

"You're right...... My companion...... What have you done? Say it! Otherwise...... You're welcome!" Ray glared at Melissa, though he struggled to even open his eyelids.

"You're welcome?" haha......" Melissa seemed to hear the most humorous joke, "just the way you are?"

Hearing this, Ray threw down his dagger, stretched out his right hand and broke off a sharp wooden hammer about 20 centimeters long from a nearby ruined bench, and then resolutely and without hesitation plunged into the nail of his left ring finger.

"Ah......h

As the saying goes, "ten fingers are connected to the heart", the fingernail gap is one of the most sensitive parts of the human body's pain nerve, and the Inquisition and the penal institutions of some countries have used torture to pierce iron needles into the fingernails of prisoners, causing the prisoner to feel severe pain in the spine. Now that Ray has done this to himself, the pain he has suffered can be imagined, but in the midst of this scream, Ray's groggy head suddenly cleared up a lot.

As for Melissa, she watched this scene in such amazement that when Ray had already rushed in front of him with a spear, he forgot to dodge. Melissa was not shocked by Rayna's courageous actions, but she suddenly remembered a man she knew 200 years ago......

Just as Melissa was distracted, the steel spear soaked in holy water pierced her body for the second time.

However, being caught off guard doesn't mean there's nothing you can do. At the moment when the steel gun penetrated her body, Melissa once again conjured up more than thirty bats and scurried around Ray in a flamboyant and demonstrative manner.

"It seems that you didn't have a long lesson at all. It was like dozens of Melissa's voices overlapped, sneering at Ray from all sides.

"No, it's you who didn't teach you a long lesson. Ray put his left hand, which was bleeding from self-harm, into his arms, "Don't think the same trick can be used on me twice!" Ray suddenly spun, and the left hand that was stretched into his arms rose outward, and a puff of shiny powder was sprayed in all directions.

"Silver powder!" came Melissa's surprised exclamation in the air.

The bats were sprinkled with powder in an instant, and most of the bats were "plated" with a layer of bright and clear luster.

Thunder Eye was quick to catch a glimpse of the other unusual bat, and shouted, "Found you!" and stabbed the steel gun in his hand towards the bat......

"Ahh

The bat, which had been stabbed with precision, flew backwards and fell to the ground, then turned into a woman, and the bats around it immediately scattered in all directions.

A plume of white smoke rose from Melissa's left arm, the site of a direct hit by a steel gun, and it looked like one of her arms had been scrapped.

A few hours earlier, while the palace was still being prepared, King Duris had ordered the craftsmen of the palace to use garlic, holy water, and silver powder to protect his companions' weapons. After the work was completed, there was still a small packet of silver powder left, and Lei picked it up casually and took it with him. Although Ray had always felt that he no longer needed any weapons other than the spear in his hand, he didn't know why at the time, and his intuition told him that bringing that bag of silver powder might help, but he didn't expect it to come in handy.

In fact, Ray has already seen that although these bats seem to be changed by Melissa's body, they are actually all flesh and blood creatures, and Melissa's real body is hidden in the bat colony, and silver powder is not lethal to most bats, and only vampires are afraid. So when Ray saw a bat deliberately forcing the silver powder away, he could tell that it was the incarnation of a vampire.

"I don't see you're smart. Although she was injured, Melissa couldn't help but praise Ray.

But Ray was not in the mood to continue talking nonsense with her, he shouted violently, leaped up, and launched a fierce attack on Melissa with lightning speed.

This time, Melissa didn't transform into a bat to avoid Ray's attack, she dodged with the speed of a vampire, and Ray's spear bit up and the spear slammed into her throat, and Melissa ducked away to avoid Ray's attack.

The two fought in this way, one advance and one retreat, and in the end, Melissa was forced to the wall by the steel gun.

Seeing that she has no way back?

No, her retreat is above!

Melissa stepped on the wall, and then took the wall as a flat ground and "ran" up at a 90-degree vertical angle. What's even more incredible is that after Melissa ran to the ceiling of the church, her body was completely reversed at 180 degrees, her feet were "attached" to the roof like magnets, and the black cloak behind her was immediately stretched, and under the swaying light, Melissa looked like a giant bat hanging upside down.

"Little handsome guy. Melissa asked Ray, who was standing at the bottom, still recovering from his surprise, "Do you know what bats like best?"

"Cut!" Ray hadn't expected Melissa to ask such an extraneous question, and he had never thought to answer.

"I tell you, bats love the dark. Melissa smiled, "In other words, no light source is needed for bats. ”

It was only at this time that Ray discovered that the more than thirty bats that had been dispersed after Melissa's appearance had not escaped at all, and they had just flown near all the light sources such as candles and lampstands.

"Whew", "Whew", "Whew", "Whew"......

The lights in the church were extinguished one by one by the wind that the bats fanned with their wings.

Soon, the brightly lit church of Somendir fell into darkness where you couldn't see your fingers.
