Chapter 350 Confronting The Vampires!

—–

Agatha and her dog were a good pair. When Agatha was pushed down, the werewolf acted immediately, attempted to attack Maria to push her away from his master. Although their strength was not the same, the werewolf was vastly strong, and could quite possibly belong in the Realm of A Ranks as well.

His Lykan Transformation Skill was the key to this power, as he was probably someone not far from B- Rank, but due to the Skill that transformed him and gave him a large boost to his powers, he grew to the point he could even be a threat to A Ranks. Maria didn’t attacked immediately, changing her mind, and deciding to talk a small bit, although the intentions of this was buying time, as the cavalry was getting closer.

“Who exactly are you guys? You’re too strong to be a mere Vampire. I remember fighting Katarina and her other two Vampires… Those were certainly powerful, but who exactly are you? In what Rank do you belong within the Vampire Family?” Asked Maria.

“Fufu, because you’ve given away your identity so easily, ghost, I guess I can tell you as much… I am Agatha, one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, the four strongest retainers that our Lord almighty has! I am named the Horseman of Famine, but it is just a Title, don’t worry, I cannot easily create famine by myself… although my actions alone are often thought to be! You see, I love to make things through Alchemy, those drugs that all of you foolish humans ate so happily was made by yours truly!” Laughed Agatha.

“What?!” Maria couldn’t help but ask, although she was simply pretending to be shocked to make Agatha happier, and therefore, making her play some more with her.

“I am an expert in making all sorts of concoctions, drugs, and so on that can enhance someone and even bring their truest potential… Or make them obey me. This little doggie here… Well, he used to be a prideful warrior, but over time, he couldn’t get enough of my drugs!” Laughed Agatha. Maria quickly realized she was the one that had made the drugs and was known as “Famine” most likely because she brought it through her way of attacking, inflicting damage to society slowly, provoking famine and hunger while making people grow addicted to her creations.

“You’re batshit crazy!” Said Maria. “Do you guys only just go around doing this all the time? Can’t you chillax for a while and just stop being such murder hobos? What’s the intentions of your boss? Ah, you know what? Tell me where he is!” Maria asked something ridiculous, as Agatha’s face quickly grew serious.

“You think I am going to just tell you where he is?! And why are you talking so much now out of nowhere, didn’t you said you didn’t wanted to talk- Ah! You’re buying time! Damn it! Dog, attack her!” Agatha roared, whipping the werewolf who quickly jumped straight towards Maria. Maria gritted her teeth as she was found out rather quickly, but didn’t seem to be too worried!

“Abyssal Barrier!”

TRUUUMMM!”

“GRAAHH!”

CLASH!

The werewolf suddenly hit a barrier made of shadows and darkness, but this time it wasn’t merely that, as the skill [Materialized Shadow Barrier] had actually evolved after hitting max Level when Maria evolved, evolving into the [Abyssal Barrier] Skill, an even stronger and more resistant Barrier, and also resetting its level back to one!

The werewolf was surprised as his face hit the barrier with all his strength, breaking his nose. He quickly healed it through his natural regeneration though, and swung his giant claws against the Abyssal Barrier, cracking and shattering it apart viciously.

CRASH! CRASH! CRASH!

It took the werewolf merely three powerful hits with his enormous claws to destroy Maria’s barrier, he seemed to have an amazing amount of Attack Stat, and even had the Mold Breaker Title at Level 5, way higher than Maria could ever hope to have it, he was amazing at breaking through the defense of his foes!

However…

“Let’s see if you’re a match for Mercury.”

“GUUU!”

Suddenly, Maria’s shadow expanded, as amass of liquid metal emerged, spreading out and completely wrapping itself around the werewolf’s body, capturing him and then pushing him down into the ground! The gigantic Mercury had been waiting for the moment to act, his amazing defenses, weight, and size made him for the perfect match against a battle junkie with high amounts of damage such as the nameless Werewolf Vampire!

“GRAAWWRR…! GRAAARRR…!”

The Werewolf groaned loudly, attacking with all his powerful claws and enhanced physique, but Mercury had insane levels of physical defense and even more HP! Alongside this, he had regeneration at an amazing speed, and magic to support him, something the original Metal Slime King lacked as Mercury is a chimera between him and the various other colorful slimes that Maria and her group defeated.

“GUUUU!”

Mercury wrapped dozens of liquid metal tentacles around the nameless werewolf, while the beast loudly groaned and roared, attempting to slash him and attacking him constantly, Mercury was easily receiving the attacks while firing magic at the wolf, although the wolf’s body was incredibly resilient as well, no matter how hard Mercury tightened his grip with his metallic tentacles, his bones didn’t break at all.

“I am leaving him to you!” Said Maria.

She knew that Mercury was reliable for that, although seeing how that wolf had several defense-ignoring skills and even Mold Breaker, it was quite possible Mercury would be defeated eventually, but it would surely buy enough time! And another pro was that Mercury lacked a core, so there was no weakness, if the werewolf wanted to win, he had to go all out and try to kill him conventionally by accumulating damage into the enormous HP pool of Mercury, all while taking into consideration his fast HP regeneration and his insane physical and magical defense.

“A giant metal slime?! How come you can control and tame such a monstrosity?!” Asked Agatha in shock.

“Well, a Necromancer can do more than you think.” Laughed Maria, clashing against Agatha once more!

CLASH!
