Chapter 267: The Cornered Vampire

David greedily gulped down mouthfuls of blood. The fourth elder's blood was very powerful. And as blood entered into his stomach, the big hole in his stomach began to close up at a pace visible to the naked eyes.

As the blood entered into his body, they were immediately transformed into warm stream of energy that flowed into his body, melding into his flesh, veins and muscles, strengthening, healing and reinforcing them and also regaining his lost stamina.

David's eyes began to shine blood-red and he impatiently sucked in more blood.

Before he knew what was happening, David was beginning to lose his sanity and he bit off the entire neck of the fourth elder in search for more blood with his sharp fangs.

It was then a voice resounded in the forest.

"Filthy creature! Get off of her!" The second elder's voice was very loud and sharp and it rumbled like thunder.

Scaring off the birds, ants and other creatures in the surrounding area.

David hissed loudly in anger with his fangs exposed as he snapped his neck towards the direction the voice was coming from.

He could sense the powerful heart beat from the second elder, the blood flowing through his veins called out to him like an irresistible magnet.

He could smell, feel and even sense as the blood flowed from the veins in the man's neck pumped blood into his head and then circulated.

The blood was irresistible and David felt a deep urge to taste the blood even if it was just a little.

Unable to resist any longer, he figure turned into a blur and he leapt at the man with shocking speed.

"Courting death!" The second elder yelled in fury as his eyes shone in a sinister light.

The second elder stretched out his hands and a long staff arranged themselves in his hands.

"Thwack!"

The staff rumbled as it rolled in the air like a huge pole covering the entire sky, slamming against David with massive force.

The air exploded and It was as though he had been hit by a train.

David's entire body was sent dying a few meters away. The elder was even more formidable than the fourth elder.

Not caring about the creature, second elder rushed towards the fourth elder with staff in his hands.

When he reached closer, his speed slowed down and finally came to a stop. His face turned ugly as he gazed at the second elder's corpse lying on the floor cold blooded within a pool of her own blood.

Her neck had being bitten off and was only connected to a piece of flesh.

The second elder face grew red from anger. It wasn't that he and the fourth elder was close. And if it weren't for this mission, he wouldn't be bothered with her.

But since they had been assigned together in this mission, it was his responsibility to protect her as the strongest amongst the two.

But now that she was dead, there was no way he would escape punishment from the clan. The death of an elder was a very serious matter to the clan which would not be taken lightly.

Although not as serious as the death of the clan head third son Nicholas, the consequence was just as close.

"I will kill you!" The third roared out in a fit of anger. The his voice rumbled and sound waves spreaded out, with him as the epicentre.

He then faced towards the path he had sent David flying and his brows furrowed as he inspected the surroundings he couldn't see the kid anywhere.

"You think you can escape?" the second elder's face gleamed in a cold light.

There as no way he could let the kid escape after all this otherwise, there was no way the Clan head will take things lightly with him.

He agitated the cells in his body and his genes automatically activated his gene.

His body structure snapped and his bones creaked. In less than a second, a massively thick fur covered his entire body

Simultaneously, his legs snapped backwards and his snort elongated.

Sharp rows of teeth grew from his mouth and a growl reverberated from his throat.

Currently, he looked like a mix between a human and a dog. Like a weredog.

Finishing his transformation, he sniffing at the air. "Got you!" The second elder vanished from his previous position in a streak of light.

David had been smacked back into sanity by the staff. But his expression wasn't looking too good.

Him losing his sanity anytime he tasted blood was beginning to get on his nerves.

If he had been sane, there was no way he would have actively attacked the man. But his thirst for blood had overwhelmed his sense of reasoning.

Several bones in his body had been broken but were beginning to heal at a rapid pace. The blood of the lady was still working and hadn't been exhausted as of yet.

He swallowed the blood threatening to escape his lips. That man had been incredibly powerful.

Standing quietly on a large boulder, he concealed his breathing, and slowed down his heart rate and body activities.

It might be incredibly difficult for others to do this, but for David, it was as simple moving his arms around.

This idea had just popped up in his head and he was hoping it would work well since he knew there was no way he could successfully escape from the man.

And although he was stronger now, the gap between him and a four-gene Phaser was incredibly massive.

There was no way he could close the distance as there was a substantial difference between a Phaser and a Spryher.

Suddenly, David heard a tree twig snap. Slowly sweeping his eye balls to that direction, David froze with what he saw.

The man had at some point stood at the distance beside him and had been there for who knows how long.

"How did he find me?" He was sure with how slow his heartbeat had been and how incredibly little his bodily activities were, there was no way a life scanner would pick him up.

Which means there was something else to it. But it currently doesn't matter right now, he needed to find means to survive.
