Chapter 790: SEED?
O Lions Majesty By my command, bless thy emissary with new life Come forth burn all that stands before me to nothingness!
At the end of the day Inferno Lion was just just an elemental creature; its death only meant it had to be resummoned. And with Fertiniers recovery potions, even that wasnt an issue.
Be wary, Little Brother, that explosive trap just now was powerful. Anyone able to set up such an array on such short notice wouldnt be a pushover.
Speaking of traps, couldnt you have warned me earlier, Fertinier? How about some heads-up next time?
Its just a death, take it as a lesson so you dont get ahead of yourself.
Ahead of myself? How am I getting ahead of myself?
Actually, lets not argue about that now, but I want a warning next time theres a trap.
If your big sis is in the mood.
what good is a cheat if its so unreliable.
But since shes not feeling helpful right now, maybe I should get those three elementals to lead the way instead.
Hopping onto my newly resummoned inferno lion, I quickly followed up by conjuring up my elementals. Weaker as they were, they would be perfect as mine rats to test for dangers ahead.
Under my emotionless command, the three of them proceeded onwards past the rubble of the lab doorway. However, they had barely taken a couple more steps before a flash of silver struck, followed by their instant explosive demise
A woman?
A deep, booming voice preceded the arrival of a three-meter tall, silver-furred werewolf blocking the way ahead. It was he who slew the three elementals I summoned in one swipe. That lightning-fast strike was beyond what any normal human could achieve, bordering on the supernatural.
In other words, this werewolf had the speed of an overlord or a near-equivalent.
But even then, how could he kill off three elemental creatures like that? After all, beings of pure elements werent easy to kill- there had to be some trick to his attacks.
However, there was no time for idle chat with my opponent. Not even to bait out information; he was clearly here to stall for time.
His pointless howling echoed in the hallway behind me. As I continued dashing ahead, I called forth my Shadow Guardian to scout the road ahead for further ambushes.
Ever since I absorbed Shadowfang, the strength of Shadow Guardian only grew by the day. In some aspects, it was even stronger than me, its owner. Sending it ahead should suffice
There was only one door separating me and Wyrm. That and a handsome, blonde-haired young man, dressed in the typical garb of a noble, and poised as you would expect of one. This road is barred, Im afraid.
A vampire?
The man oozed with the ominous smell of blood. Coupled with his ostentatious dress and ruby-red eyes, I instantly figured out who he was.
His eyes held a crazed spark within them, but only for a brief moment before he calmed his fury down with a false smile. My fair lady, I believe youre mistaken there. Im no vampire. We are all children of the night, the favored of the moon, the noble Bloodkin!
When did you vampires get together with the werewolves?
This wasnt my first run-in with a vampire, thus I knew nothing would irk them more than calling them vampires, especially twice.
Oh, my lady He started, but never got to finish his words as my Shadow Guardian stretched out into a blade-like form, meeting his turned neck with its razor-sharp edge
There was no blood spurt as I would expect. The vampire hadnt been hit by the shadowy blade at all. In fact, he still had on that smile while the rest of his body had already transformed into a blood fog that engulfed the entirety of Shadowfang!
Even though this is no creature of flesh and blood, my blood fog has the ability to corrode anything in this world However, he never got to finish this sentence either before his face suddenly contorted. How how is it an epic-grade
Wrapped up in blood fog, the Shadow Guardian undid its transformation, revealing a two-meter long, blackish greatsword that promptly swung down on the vampires head like it was a cake.
This time, there was no escaping death for the monster. And now that its prey was defeated, the Shadow Guardian returned to the darkness.
Next time, try actually fighting instead of showing off if theres even a next time I triumphantly stepped over the corpse of my fresh prey and entered the storage location of Wyrm.
What entered my view were a dozen black-robed figures frantically carving a giant array into the floor. In the center of this array was a dome that kept Wyrm safe.
A dimensional barrier: once deployed, even an overlord would be hard-pressed to break it. Whadya think of your big siss anti-theft system?
What else is there to say but well done!
