Report

When Mary woke up again, it was already a month later.

This time, she had consumed the blood of a powerful being, and the energy level was far higher than her vampire rank. She had no choice but to continuously sleep to digest such a powerful blood energy. Of course, this was also one of the innate abilities of the vampires!

If it was any other creature, it would easily contaminate the direction of their bloodline if they swallowed such a large amount of energy in one go. However, the vampire race was different. No matter how much energy they swallowed, after digesting it, it would all become nourishment for their vampire bloodline, and there would never be a situation where their bloodline would be contaminated.

However, this evolution was obviously different from the past. When Mary woke up from her deep sleep, she even felt that she was about to die of hunger.

She could not help but turn pale with fright.

In the past, when she needed to sleep after swallowing blood energy, the biggest feeling she had when she woke up was the feeling of fullness and satisfaction in her bloodline. But today, for some reason, after swallowing all the blood of a Wizard-level monster leader, the moment she woke up, she actually felt hungry again, and it was the kind of hunger that rumbled in her stomach.

This feeling came from the deepest part of her bloodline. It was as if … as if this evolution, the speed of her bloodline evolution was even faster and more sudden than the evolution of her physical attributes.

Could it be that the blood of the flower spirit had hidden factors that could promote the evolution of bloodline? With a deep question, Mary licked her lips and opened her eyes.

This was not her room! There was someone in the room!

Mary silently sat up from the bed, and her scarlet eyes fell straight on a tall and burly figure.

This was Grim's room, but the person sitting in front of the desk reading in silence was obviously not him. That broad and burly body was unfamiliar, but that familiar soul wave, that familiar body aura … Wait, no! Why was there a hint of pungent sulfur mixed in the familiar smell?

Mary's body silently floated up, and in just a flash, she appeared behind the familiar stranger. The nails on her hands quickly grew and became strangely sharp as blood flashed. Her scarlet eyes stared at the neck of the stranger, which was right in front of her, and she could bite it at any time.

A series of crisp sounds rang out.

Two items that were originally on Mary's body fell to the ground along with her movement, emitting a crisp sound.

Hearing the sound, the burly figure turned around. The moment he saw Mary, his face lit up with joy.

"You're awake?!"

His smile was sincere and brimming with joy!

Mary stopped her attack. Her blood-red eyes narrowed into slits as she coldly asked, "Who are you? Why do you smell like Grim? "

Seeing how nervous Mary was, Grimm didn't know whether to laugh or cry. It seemed that both of them had changed so much in this deep sleep that Mary began to doubt her own eyes.

Grim stood up from his chair. He used to be almost the same size as Mary, but now he was a head taller. Coupled with his broad and burly physique, when the two of them stood facing each other, the pressure from Grimm's body forced Mary to take a step back subconsciously.

"The best way to judge a person is through their soul. What's wrong, Mary? Can't you feel my soul?" Grim asked calmly.

At this moment, he didn't want to provoke her too much. Mary was like a female leopard on full alert, ready to pounce at any moment. Although Grimm was confident in himself due to the sudden increase in his strength, he was afraid that even five of him would not be able to fight against a Vampire Quasi Sorcerer in such a small place.

Indeed, Grimm's senses were very sharp. Mary was now a quasi-witch vampire! According to the classification of vampires in books, Mary should have a noble title by now.

This title did not refer to the ranking system of the nobles in the human kingdom, but to the strength of the vampires. Since the vampires liked to hide in the human society, they disguised themselves as nobles to hide their true colors. Therefore, they basically followed the ranking system of the human nobles.

With Mary's current rank as a vampire, she could probably be considered a baron!

Vampire, Knight, Baron, Viscount, Earl, Marquis, Duke, Grand Duke, Prince! This series was the ranking system of the vampires. However, the rank of the bloodline and the strength were sometimes not directly proportional.

For example, Mary's vampire bloodline was a Baron, but her strength was a Quasi-Wizard. If she met a direct descendant of an orthodox vampire family, it was very likely that he would have the title of Viscount while his strength was still at the intermediate level.

This title did not mean much to the other races except for vampires, but it had indescribable benefits for the vampires. At the very least, when the intermediate Viscount Vampire faced Mary, it was very likely that he would use the suppression of his bloodline to forcibly enslave Mary to become his slave. As for whether it would succeed or not, it would depend on the strength of their willpower and the suppression of their bloodlines.

Mary once again looked at Grimm in confusion, and could not help but sniff his scent. It was indeed Grim's soul fluctuation! After confirming this, the tension on Mary's face eased a little bit. But where did the pungent smell of sulfur and the sweet taste come from?

Once again, Mary moved closer to Grimm's body and opened her red lips, intending to take a small bite to savor the taste. However, just as her little canine teeth were about to reach Grim's neck, they were suddenly deflected by a small burst of flame.

Mary swayed slightly in the air and once again came to Grim's side. She stared unblinkingly at the small flame that had suddenly appeared on Grim's neck.

This was a golden flame the size of a fingernail. It quietly floated on Grim's skin and burned without the crackling sound of ordinary flames. After a few seconds, perhaps it did not sense any hostility or attack from the outside, the flame drilled into Grim's skin and disappeared.

Only then did Mary understand that the flame was not summoned by Grimm. It was an instinctive reaction of the body to guard against it.

Mary curiously stretched out a finger and pressed on the part of Grim's neck that was burning. This time, it was very strange. Her smooth finger rubbed on Grim's skin for a long time, but there was no flame. Mary was stunned at first, then she seemed to understand something.

A cold murderous aura burst forth. Mary's fingernail rapidly grew and crackled. The tip of her fingernail had become abnormally sharp under the infusion of blood energy. Almost at the same time, a golden flame suddenly rose from where Mary's finger was pressed on Grim's neck and directly ignited her finger.

Mary raised her hand and looked at it curiously. The flame had unexpectedly left Grim's body and stubbornly burned on her fingertip, causing her continuous damage.

Mary spat out blood from her fingertip and quickly extinguished the flame with her blood energy. Only then did she turn her head to look at Grim.

"What's this? It looks pretty good! "

"A combination of Body of Flame and Flame Shield."

"How did you get the smell of sulfur in your body?"

"It's a side effect from soaking in the underground lava. I'm trying to get rid of it."

"Soaking in the underground lava?"

"You have to know that you slept for 32 days!" Grim spread his hands helplessly, "A lot of things happened during this period. You need to slowly understand them!"

"Then tell me from the beginning!" Mary's little face scrunched up, "I want to listen to you while I eat!"

In the next two hours, Mary continuously ate five Mana Set Meals before she could barely quench the hunger in the depths of her soul. Grimm, on the other hand, sat by the side and watched her wolfing down the food while recounting what happened during this period of time in a clear and organized manner.

Of course, Grim only told her everything that had happened. As for the speculations and suspicions he had in the cave, he did not say a single word. After all, this was the Magus Tower controlled by the other side. Who knew if the Grade 2 Magus Andre was still watching them? For safety reasons, he decided to keep this secret by himself!

When Mary finally stopped eating, Grim handed her the two gifts again.

Mary touched the exquisite armor and magic bow in confusion and raised her head, waiting for Grim's explanation.

"These two were originally flower spirit equipment. Now that I've modified them, you can use your blood energy to control them. You lacked long-range attacks in the past, but now that you have these two, you've made up for that! "

It had to be said that Grim hated Mary's crude method of using the power of her bloodline. She had such a great talent for vampires, but she still used such an old-fashioned method of fighting like a mad dog, exchanging blood for blood with the enemy! If she met an enemy who could suppress her bloodsucking regeneration talent, she would be courting death!

Now that she had the Rose Armor, she could make up for her weak skin. With the blood-red magic bow, she could also make up for her lack of long-range attacks. In the future, she could use her high agility to slowly wear down the enemy's attacks and defenses. If she really needed to fight in close combat, she could also give up on the magic bow and use Cruel Claws to entangle the enemy.

This way, there would be both long-range and melee attacks, as well as the necessary defense. Only then could Mary's battle strength be fully unleashed!

During this time, Grim was not idle.

After modifying Mary's equipment, Grimm spent the rest of his time on mastering fire element spells and repairing magic puppets.

The 'Host of Flame' was just a basic step in his path to specialize in fire spells. Although it did not give Grim direct battle strength, it was the biggest support for all fire spells. For example, the fusion of 'Host of Flame' and 'Flame Shield' would allow Grim to passively activate fire protection. Any actions that hurt his body at close range would automatically be counterattacked by the flames, dealing 3-5 damage.
