Chapter 216: Chapter 172: Kill Blast_1
Upon hearing the man’s words, Bambi seemed perplexed, not understanding what he meant. But for Duanmu Huai, this was enough!
With his furious shout, Greiya quickly embraced Bambi. She lowered her head, and at the same time, Duanmu Huai tossed a flash bomb into the air with his right hand.
Now that he had confirmed these vampires in the castle had no relation to Bambi, he would deal with them directly. The ins and outs of the situation could be figured out later!
In the blink of an eye, an incredibly dazzling white light erupted, illuminating the entire castle interior. The vampires, never having expected such a thing, started screaming, covering their eyes and retreating. Simultaneously, Duanmu Huai leaped up, grasped his Thunder Warhammer, and charged to the second floor balcony. Following that, a sacred Soul Flame radiated outwards from him in all directions!
The blistering flame instantly engulfed the vampires who were thrown into disarray by the flash bomb. Although vampires possess speed and physical attributes far beyond ordinary people, they were as helpless as little children in the face of the bright light. After all, these vampires, unlike the perfect being that Bambi was, feared even daylight, and were nothing more than low-level beasts, primitive and barbaric!
Under the searing Soul Flame, the vampires in the dining room were burned into charred remnants within moments. Hearing the horrified screams inside, the vampires outside attempted to rush in, only to face… a raging Fire Dragon.
Greiya raised her transformed dragon-clawed right hand, and the blazing flames that erupted formed a dragon of fire that blocked the entrance, turning the entire hall into a massive furnace within seconds.
If this were a regular building, the vampires could have escaped. But this stone structure was a vampire castle, with only narrow windows no larger than ten centimeters wide. Furthermore, to keep Duanmu Huai and his allies from fleeing, they had sealed off the entire castle—thereby cutting off their own escape route.
The vampires in the main hall were frantically trying to escape, but the narrow space hindered their movements. Instead, it was the intimidating Fire Dragon controlled by Greiya that moved back and forth, relentlessly engulfing all who dared to obstruct its path.
In just a matter of moments, the nearly one hundred vampires that once lurked here had been completely eradicated. Those who had been sitting at the dining table, pretending to be casual, were now charred bodies, their act of fleeing or blocking seemingly frozen in time.
However, not all had been caught.
Duanmu Huai raised his head, staring ahead. Although the flash bomb had obscured the sight of others, thanks to the protection of his helmet, Duanmu Huai’s vision had remained unimpaired. Therefore, he clearly saw that the middle-aged man seemed to sense danger and had instantly transformed into a bloody tempest, rushing into the corridor in the rear.
But…… do you think you can escape?
“Greiya, take care of Bambi, I’ll be right back.”
Duanmu Huai clenched his war hammer and without looking back, he threw these words behind him and strode into the corridor in front of him.
The heavy door was pushed open forcefully. A crimson whirlwind descended and landed on the ground, revealing a bizarre figure. It was the middle-aged man from earlier, but now he could no longer maintain a human form. He had transformed into a monster with a bluish-gray body, a dog-like elongated head, and tattered wings on his back.
At this moment, the monster’s legs were burnt black He slumped on the ground, biting his teeth in desperation.
Why? Why has it come to this? Who are those two?
They were supposed to be ordinary human adventurers accompanying the Night Princess, but why did they possess such immense power? The blinding white light, as well as the terrfying flames which seemed to threaten to incinerate their very souls…are they really humans?
“Lord Morag! Lord Morag…!!!”
The middle-aged man, now unable to even walk, desperately crawled using his hands, desperately crying out to the altar in front of him.
In the center of the altar was a strange-looking divine statue. With its right hand raised high and left hand outstretched forward, it looked like it was dancing. It had beast-like ears and facial features. At this moment, a dense stream of blood was flowing around this divine statue, spilling onto the ground.
“Save me…Lord Morag…”
The man struggled to crawl forward, yet he could already hear the heavy footsteps approaching from behind him.
“Thump———! Thump———! Thump———!”
Each pounding footstep felt like a hammer pounding on the man’s heart, causing an unprecedented fear and unease in him. At this moment, he seemed to no longer be a powerful vampire, but a stranded and pitiful prey attempting to escape a ferocious beast’s hunt.
He crawled desperately towards the altar. Once he got there—if he could get there…
However, at that moment, the man suddenly felt a tight grip on his leg. Then, a terrifying voice emerged in his ear.
“I’m sorry, but you’re not going anywhere.”
Right behind the man, Duanmu Huai was clutching his war hammer in one hand, while his other hand held the man’s leg. He looked like a deranged killer who had caught his victim in a terrifying western horror movie.
“Hehehe, we still have things to discuss, don’t rush to escape…”
The man turned his head back and saw Duanmu Huai’s eerie rabbit helmet that, under the flickering firelight and wrapped in shadows, looked alarmingly undulating. His eyes widened in fear. To him, the grinning rabbit looked like it was about to open its mouth and tear him to shreds at any time – just a rabbit, only a rabbit, but it seemed even more terrifying than a giant dragon!
“No, let me go! Let me go!! Help!! Morag!!”
At that moment, as if responding to the man’s wailing and cries, the blood pool at the altar exploded violently. Subsequently, a giant hand composed of blood swiftly reached out towards Duanmu Huai!
As he saw the blood-soaked giant hand, Duanmu Huai’s eyebrows furrowed. He could certainly sense the powerful magic within it. This was not a power that an ordinary ghost or demon would possess; while it was far from matching a Chaos Evil God, the emanating aura suggested — could it be that a Demon God had intervened?
At this moment, Duanmu Huai’s eyes flashed ominously. He threw the man aside and tightly gripped his war hammer. He let out an angry roar and simultaneously, a divine bloom erupted from him. He then gripped the war hammer tight and slammed it directly into the bloody giant hand!
The two forces collided intensely. Duanmu Huai felt a viscous, wild power from the giant hand – a kind of mighty pressure. Merely the presence of it was enough to make ordinary humans kneel, repent their insignificance and humility.
The voice that echoed in Duanmu Huai’s brain was oppressive as if the power it held could shatter him.
But… the being in front of it was not an ordinary human, but a Judge who protects humans!
A cruel being who would mercilessly obliterate Gods and demons alike for the sake of humans!
A mere demon dares to act unruly in front of me!?!
Feeling the oppressive power from his opponent, Duanmu Huai snorted coldly, and at the same time, the Fearful Aura erupted! Even the Demon God’s pressure faltered under the angry wave of fear. Seizing this opportunity, Duanmu Huai held his war hammer and smashed forward again!!
The blood-soaked giant hand burst apart, and the scattered blood painted the entire room red. At the same time, cracks appeared in the divine statue on the altar. As the giant hand shattered, the statue burst open like an explosion.
“How is this possible…..!”
Witnessing this scene, the man stood dumbfounded. He terrifiedly watched the scene before him, barely believing his own eyes. As a follower of the Demon God, he could not be more intimate with the aura of the Demon God. However, to his surprise, the terrifying existence, seemingly unbeatable in his eyes, had been directly crushed by the horrible figure in front of him?!
What on earth is he?!
Under the man’s horrified gaze, the blood-drenched bunny slowly turned around. On its face, glistening blood could be seen flowing from the corner of its mouth, and its eyes shone a sinister red.
The man collapsed on the ground, trembling all over, as he watched the bunny walk over to him, grab his head, and lift him up. He saw the cruel grin on its blood-soaked face, with its buck teeth visible from the mouth, covered in a bright red of blood.
Just like a rabbit that had sadistically devoured a wild beast. Merely looking at it made the man feel an overwhelming sense of fear and chill rushing to his head. His body began to shiver uncontrollably, and he couldn’t even open his mouth because he felt if he did, the only thing that would come out would be a hysterical scream and complete breakdown.
The voice from within the helmet sounded to the man like the growl of a beast.
“Now we can have a proper conversation.”
