Chapter 121: The Battle of the Vatican
Leno was held in a hidden cell in the cathedral.
He was surrounded by professional agents including Kosand of the Intelligence Agency, Van Helsing, the chief witcher of the Witchers' Guild, and five witchers who took turns patrolling the neighborhood to prevent vampires from sneaking in.
Kailin. Villeris is one of the five witchers.
Although the Demon Hunter path is a new cultivation method, in terms of Ximeng and Sun Never Setting, at least 100 Demon Hunter Elixirs have been jointly produced, and a large number of Demon Hunter candidates have been screened from all walks of life.
The Witcher's awakening is extremely difficult.
The failure rate is over 90 percent.
In the process of awakening, every demon hunter has experienced nine deaths in the true sense of life.
Kailin was one of the lucky ones.
She is also currently the only female witcher.
She has the background of the Military Intelligence Bureau on which the sun never sets, and after her awakening was successful, she was immediately focused on cultivation, and currently has the Seven Heavenly Cultivation of the Innate Realm, which is almost second only to Van Helsing in combat power among demon hunters.
Now.
It was midnight.
Far from being lax, the garrison could not be lax.
On the contrary, it is all the more necessary to heighten vigilance and strengthen vigilance.
Daylight and sunlight weaken vampires.
There is a high probability that Grand Duke Dracula will launch an operation at night.
After completing a routine patrol, Kailin returns to the Witcher's makeshift lounge, where she finds the other four Witchers playing cards.
"It's a dangerous time, and you're too lax!"
She frowned and was dissatisfied: "Vampires are very cunning and will attack at any time, we must be vigilant, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable if something goes wrong." ”
The four were unimpressed.
A witcher had a cigarette in his mouth and shuffled cards in his hand, and said unclearly: "With so many elite troops being transferred this time, all kinds of preparations are unprecedentedly sufficient, and why is there boss Helsing, what is there to worry about?" ”
The other witcher also laughed, "Hey, take it easy, Miss Villeris, I don't think Archduke Dracula is stupid, he definitely won't come into the net." ”
"Let's play two together."
The other two witchers followed suit and even invited Kailin to play with them.
Kailin is not a big beauty, and she is thirty-three years old, but she is also quite beautiful, and she is the only witch hunter today, and the wild temperament she exudes adds a lot of points, which makes several people want to be close to her.
According to official research findings on witchers.
The success rate of the witcher's awakening is related to both gender and personality.
Generally, the probability of successful awakening of male witches will be much higher than that of female witches.
In addition, the more rebellious, irritable, wild, obedient, and unruly people in terms of personality, the higher the probability of awakening, but the lower the probability of awakening of gentle and stable people.
The Witcher group is extremely difficult to control.
This is also the reason why the official support for the formation of the Witcher's Guild is also the reason for this.
Kailin didn't have time to be angry or reprimanded, and the moonlight outside the window suddenly disappeared, and a strong feeling of uneasiness came over her, which made her hairs stand on end.
"What's going on?"
Witchers have a strong sense of smell as well as a sense of crisis.
The other witchers, though a little worse than Kaylin, sensed that something wasn't quite right.
Kailin came to the window, and the red moon hanging in the sky was blocked by a layer of dark clouds, so that the moonlight disappeared completely, and her face changed slightly: "It's a vampire!" ”
The other four were all stunned.
I didn't expect the vampire to really dare to come!
All of a sudden, sirens sounded, and seven or eight high-powered searchlights lit up the sky of St. Peter's Square, and countless bats were seen coming from all sides, forming a trend of covering the sky and the sun.
"Enemy attack!"
"Fire!"
The soldier raised his weapon and wanted to attack.
But the rain of blood poured down and enveloped the church and the square.
Hundreds of soldiers and personnel had no time to dodge, and after being drenched in the rain of blood, their blood seemed to boil, and the great pain made them fall to the ground screaming and losing the ability to fight.
Like a black waterfall, the bats rushed over St. Peter's Square and quickly spread out in all directions, like an unstoppable torrent.
The next moment.
More than a dozen figures appeared in this baroque-style square.
Too fast!
It's so fierce!
The well-laid out defenses of the special operations forces are in vain!
It was breached almost instantly, and it didn't work as well as it should!
Florence saw the live video, his face was also a little pale, he had to admit that he underestimated his opponent, this damn vampire seems to be stronger than the other day!
Grand Duke Dracula, dressed in a black turtleneck coat, stood on top of a huge stone monument in the center of the square, his eyes deep and cold, full of chill and murderous aura.
Around the stele.
There are more than a dozen members of the Bloodline.
Each of them was dressed in black, wearing masks, and wrapped around the blood-colored true element, judging from the breath, at least they were all masters above the sixth heaven of the innate realm, and there was no shortage of top masters no less than the ninth heaven.
"I'll only give you one chance!"
Grand Duke Dracula's voice was not loud, but it could be heard throughout St. Peter's Square, "Hand them over now, or I will set foot on this place!" ”
There was a lot of pressure on the people.
This is the Vatican in the city of Rome, which has been the core and most sacred place of the Holy See since the Middle Ages, and if it is really trampled by this vampire, the negative impact and impact will be unimaginable.
At this time, rockets were fired simultaneously from all directions of the oval square.
The special rocket exploded in mid-air and instantly spilled a large amount of sterling silver powder.
Although silver powder cannot pose a threat to a vampire of Dracula's level, it is enough to make him feel very uncomfortable, and ordinary vampires will be directly harmed when they come into contact with silver powder.
Meanwhile.
A large number of combatants.
They are quickly reaching the surrounding buildings and bunkers.
"Good!"
Grand Duke Dracula was completely furious, only to see him raise his hands, letting the blood rain evaporate into a blood mist, instantly covering all directions, and the visible range of ordinary people with the naked eye would not exceed five meters in the blood mist.
This is quite depriving everyone of sight.
In this way, no matter how many combatants and snipers are deployed nearby, if they can't even lock on to the target, it won't be of much value.
"Kill!"
Dracula gave the order.
More than a dozen Blood Clan masters turned into afterimages and attacked in all directions, indiscriminately attacking the square and everyone nearby, killing dozens of people in a short time, and the number of discussions was still increasing rapidly.
Grand Duke Dracula instantly descended from the top of the stone tablet, releasing hundreds of blood-red bats from his body, automatically attacking nearby lurking targets.
A scream.
Several people were caught in mid-air from cover.
When the blood is sucked dry by the bats, the carcass is thrown directly to the ground.
Grand Duke Dracula walked unhurriedly towards the cathedral in front of him, and the screams of people around him were constantly being sucked dry by the bats, and the bats that sucked the blood returned to their bodies and quickly replenished the consumption generated by the use of arcane arts.
That's the kind of person alone.
That's the amount alone.
Far from enough to pose a threat.
This place is a religious shrine and is located in the bustling city of Rome, so it is impossible to carry out missile washing, so there is no need to be afraid.
This battle can suck blood like crazy.
It is expected that he will soon be able to break through to the Sixth Heaven of the Mortal Realm!
When Grand Duke Dracula reached the cathedral in an invincible manner, he suddenly felt something, stopped his progress, and looked up.
A burly figure was found above the church.
This one is a man in a cowboy hat and a shabby coat, with a face full of decadence and vicissitudes.
Grand Duke Dracula opened his mouth and asked, "You are the werewolf who defeated Lyno?" ”
Van Helsing took off his hat and coat, releasing a violent and wild aura from the inside out, silver hair quickly appeared all over his body, and his body suddenly swelled to more than two and a half meters.
Didn't say a word more.
It's like a cannon shot.
From the top of the church directly in front of Archduke Dracula.
"Roar!"
Van Helsing had completely turned into a werewolf, his silver hair glowing all over his body, and his claws set off five rays of energy like a storm, instantly striking the powerful vampire in front of him.
The moment the attack hits.
Dracula exploded in an instant and turned into a swarm of bats.
Van Helsing's attack was dodged, and the giant claws slammed into the ground, and the five claws directly tore through more than a dozen floor tiles, leaving five deep cracks on the ground.
"So fast!"
Van Helsing had never faced an opponent so fast.
Dracula flashed beside him, and a blood-colored energy condensed in his palm, and before he could attack again, he instantly blasted the silver werewolf more than ten meters away and smashed two corridors.
Blood energy is released again.
Five blood-colored spears appeared behind him.
Dracula waved his hand lightly, and the blood spears struck the werewolves in turn.
Van Helsing felt a huge threat, although he had recently devoured the hearts of two vampires, plus a number of demon beasts provided by Ximeng, allowing him to cultivate to break through to the Triple Heaven of the Mortal Realm, there was still a considerable gap compared to Grand Duke Dracula.
Five blood spears are faster than bullets.
Van Helsing was able to dodge four attacks with his astonishing agility and reflexes, and the last bloody spear was too tricky to dodge, and instantly hit his chest, and the terrifying force blasted him into the square.
Pain!
It's like it's falling apart!
Van Helsing experienced a brief period of dizziness.
It was as if the relatives who had been killed by their own hands appeared again in front of them.
Van Helsing is not afraid of death but is afraid that he will not be able to atone for his sins, this vampire is terrifying, if he continues to exist in the world, I am afraid that countless people will lose their loved ones, maybe it is his destiny to fight him!
"Roar!"
The werewolf stood up directly.
Although there is still a bloody spear stuck in his chest.
But he pounced on the vampire again like no one.
Dracula noticed that although the creature had been injured a lot, the wounds on his body were recovering quickly at a speed visible to the naked eye, and his aura had not weakened, but had become more violent.
What a strong physique!
What a strong resilience!
No wonder it has the ability to defeat Rino!
Although Van Helsing's current cultivation is not too strong, it has caused some sense of crisis for Dracula.
I don't get rid of it now.
The future will be a great disaster.
"Since you want to die so much."
"Then I have no choice but to fulfill you!"
Grand Duke Dracula moved his homicidal intent, and controlled the blood spear on Van Helsing's body with his left hand, causing it to melt into a blood chain, instantly restraining him from pounce.
"Roar!"
Van Helsing roared.
Shattered the chains of blood in an instant.
Before he could take any further action, he saw Dracula's right hand urging the power of blood, and instantly condensed a giant hand, which directly held his body, lifted it and smashed it on the ground.
Rumble!
St. Peter's Square solid floor tiles shattered dozens of pieces at once.
Van Helsing's huge body was slapped directly into the ground, and he struggled to stand up again, only to see a dozen blood-colored bats come with their heads and faces, each of which was quite a small bomb.
Rumble!
Explode at the same time!
Van Helsing was covered in flesh and wounded, and was so badly injured that he was almost immobile.
"It's over!" Dracula turned into a dark shadow, teleported in front of the werewolf, and stepped on his head with one foot, "Your blood contains powerful energy, enough for me to break through my current cultivation. ”
Between words.
Just ready to suck blood.
I never thought it would be right now.
Something I didn't expect happened.
St. Peter's Square lit up with blinding lights on all sides.
Eight pillars of light shine out from all sides of the oval square at the same time, and when the eight rays of light converge in the air, they instantly turn into a huge field of light, enveloping the entire St. Peter's Square in it.
Shrouded in light.
A mist of blood that permeated the square.
It dissipated quickly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"What's going on?"
When the light is covered down.
Even if it was as strong as Dracula, the moment it was illuminated, it felt extremely burning all over his body.
"It's ...... Sunlight? ”
It's midnight.
There can be no sunlight.
Dracula endured the burning pain and observed, and he discovered that the eight pillars of light came from eight mirrors, which formed an enchantment that enveloped the entire St. Peter's Great Square.
This is not a human means.
Artificial light has very limited effect on vampires.
The light that now envelops the plaza is not only stronger than direct sunlight, but even stronger, and has a blocking effect that can trap vampires in it.
Really!
The gang was prepared.
This should be some kind of formation-like magic weapon.
The reason why they chose the Vatican as the battlefield.
It's because of the terrain that it's just the right place to set up this enchantment!
In such a short period of time, several vampires with low cultivation levels quickly blackened and fell directly because they could not withstand the light at all.
No matter so much!
Kill this werewolf first!
Dracula vaguely realizes that Van Helsing is likely to become a vampire in the future, so he continues to execute Van Helsing at his feet, but at this time.
A muffled sound!
A sniper bullet.
Hit Dracula in the chest.
This bullet also uses a silver bullet.
I feel that the red-hot iron passes through the body, which is enough to cause damage!
Van Helsing took advantage of Dracula's flaws, dragged his seriously injured body, fought back with all his might, grabbed his body and smashed four corridors in a row, and then threw him directly in the center of the enchantment.
This is already the limit.
The Light will also weaken the werewolves' power.
After throwing Dracula out, Van Helsing ran out of strength and fell to the ground, automatically disarming his transformation and turning into a human again, unable to fight again for a short time.
"Damn it!"
Dracula landed in the middle of the barrier, where the light was at its strongest, his body had begun to smoke, and his hair, face, and hands were scorched, not to mention the constant silver bullets shooting from all directions.
"Are we going to make it?!"
Florence watched the scene from the command room with a look of excitement on his face.
For today's battle.
The CIA has made a lot of preparations,
The centerpiece of preparation is a set of magical items from the Mage's Ruins.
This set of magic items consists of eight mirrors, which can be used to construct a light enchantment, and has been tested to have a good purifying effect on dark spirits and demons.
In fact, this set of magic items is a set of formation magic weapons.
Although the effect is very good, it is very cumbersome to start up and requires a lot of real input, so you need to find a way to buy time.
Florence didn't expect Van Helsing to beat Dracula, as long as he bought time!
Now the goal has been achieved!
The vampire has been trapped in the Light Enchantment!
Even if you're as powerful as Dracula, there's no way you'll be able to stay in this enchantment for long!
And because there is fire suppression in all directions, it is difficult for him to break out of the enchantment, and this time he can't really completely eliminate the vampire once and for all!
Dracula had to admit.
The CIA still has two brushes.
If there is no foreign aid, once you fall into such a situation, even if you can forcibly break out, all your subordinates will die, and your own vitality will be greatly damaged, and it is impossible to be able to rescue Nuo.
However.
Prepared.
It's not just the CIA.
After the Light Enchantment forms and traps Dracula.
A stream of yellow sand struck from outside the main square, and when it reached the sky above the main square, it instantly divided into more than a dozen branches, quickly attacking in different directions.
"Not good!"
"There is a situation!"
"What is this?"
Everyone at the scene naturally saw a strange scene.
A stream of yellow sand struck the church room, where one of the eight magic mirrors was located, and the sand gathered into a mummy, stubborn and hideous face.
"Fire!"
The agents deployed in this room hurriedly opened fire.
Atta was instantly hit by dozens of silver bullets in his body at close range, and was almost beaten into a sieve on the spot, but he grinned and showed a hideous smile: "This kind of thing is useless to Lao Tzu!" ”
Between words.
The knife flashed.
Easily kill more than a dozen people.
Causes the mirror to stop emitting beams instantly.
Seven other mirrors were also attacked by Mu Muyin.
There are agents who improvisate and irradiate Mu Mu Yin with pillars of light, hoping to kill these undead monsters with holy light, but what makes people desperate is that the evil-looking monsters are not afraid of this light attack.
One, two, three, four......
The pillars of light went out one after another.
The barrier is broken.
Grand Duke Dracula showed a sneer, his eyes revealing murderous intent, "Is this all you have to do?" To be honest, I was disappointed! ”
Between words.
The burns on the face, neck, and hands have returned to normal.
The wounds on his body from the silver bullets were also healing at a rate visible to the naked eye, and the attacks did some damage, but not enough to pose a deadly threat.
"How so?"
"What are these things?"
"It seems to be the munmu of Ekanda!"
"They should be High Priest Yin Morton's men!"
The crowd was shocked and despaired.
I never imagined that this would happen in any case.
The vampire has just been cornered.
It's just a little bit away from destroying these damn monsters!
Why did the subordinates of the High Priest of Ekanda, Yin Morton, appear here!
Could it be ......
Yin Morton teamed up with Dracula?
After Florence thought of this possibility.
An irrepressible fear suddenly came over me!
After all, a Dracula is already difficult to deal with, if he becomes an ally with Yin Morton, can the Western Intelligence Agency really fight against him alone?
It seems that the CIA is really out of recruits.
A sneer tugged at the corner of Dracula's mouth.
In that case, it is time to fulfill his promise to completely destroy this religious holy place, only in this way can there be enough deterrence to make these stupid fellows pay the price they deserve!
But.
Before that.
Dracula had to do two more things.
The first is to rescue Nuo, and the second is to kill Van Helsing.
