For a moment, the battlefield fell silent.
All the creatures engaged in battle couldn't help but raise their heads to look at the red figure that was slowly rising in the sky.
Under the clear blue sky, a beautiful scene appeared before everyone's eyes.
A beautiful, blood-red figure was hugging a majestic knight, leaning against his chest. Giant leathery bat wings spread open, supporting the two of them as they slowly rotated in midair.
A beauty and a knight!
One delicate, one majestic.
The strong visual contrast between the handsome man and the beautiful woman, who were of vastly different physiques, gave off a surreal feeling. One couldn't help but wonder if there was something wrong with their eyes.
As one of the participants in today's battle, the Evil Worm Entik hated the scene in the sky the most. If not for the fact that he was worried that rashly charging forward might result in a painful defeat, he would have long lost control of his tyrannical mood and started a massacre.
The Bloody Witch Mary and the handsome knight's snuggling had no hint of romance or beauty. Instead, it was filled with the wails of death and the withering of life.
Mary's sharp fangs pierced into the other party's carotid artery. Fresh blood flowed through her hollow fangs and into her body, causing her previously dispirited Blood Wizard Power to instantly swell and surge again. Miraculously, the wounds on Mary's body quickly closed, formed scabs, and healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Soon, as a blood-red ring of light swept across her body, all of the injuries Mary had just suffered disappeared. Even her skin had become tender and translucent once again, with a faint blush of blood and Qi on it.
Damned Vampires! Terrifying Vampires!
As long as there was a blood source, and as long as the Vampires didn't die instantly, they could rely on sucking blood to recover from any injuries they suffered.
This was the most powerful and heaven-defying aspect of the Vampires!
After a quarter of an hour, Mary casually loosened her arms, and a shriveled corpse fell lightly from the sky.
Mary stuck out her nimble tongue and licked the bloodstain at the corner of her lips. She lowered her body and looked at the expressionless Entik standing on the ground. She pointed her finger and shouted, "Kill!"
Thus, the battle that had just cooled down erupted once again!
"Mary, don't think that I'm … afraid … of … you …" Entik stuttered when he said a very normal sentence. This was not because he was afraid, but because three blood-red arrows had penetrated his insect body, blowing him up into pieces.
Terrifying holes were blasted open time and time again, but they were quickly repaired again and again.
Entich grabbed a Carrion Beetle and used it as a shield to block Mary's relentless barrage. Meanwhile, he condensed insect spears made of squirming beetles with his other hand and threw them at his opponent with all his might.
Even though both sides had suffered casualties, Entik already had the intention to retreat.
It couldn't be helped. Every time he repaired the Corpse Scarabs' body, he would have to expend a portion of his spiritual force, and commanding the Corpse Scarabs to fight also took a toll on his spiritual force. If there were too few of them, his spiritual power might be able to hold on for a while longer, but once an all-out war broke out, his spiritual power would not be able to keep up.
Of course, if Mary hadn't replenished her blood and flesh along the way, it wouldn't have been a problem for the demonic worm, Endik, to exhaust Mary to death. After all, with the Insect Queen by his side, he could save a lot of spiritual power when commanding the Carrion Beetles compared to ordinary Summoners.
But … there weren't that many buts.
When Mary absorbed all the blood of a Tier 2 Knight, the scales of victory and defeat in today's battle had been tipped!
A Tier 2 Knight was a bargaining chip that could not be ignored, no matter where it was placed!
Mary was willing to use a Tier 2 Knight as a bargaining chip in a daily conflict, and the demonic worm, Entik, was destined to lose today.
Hence, after glaring at Mary hatefully, Entik, who had taken root in the swarm of beetles, whistled and retreated with his remaining subordinates. The swarm of beetles retreated to the opened wormhole. One by one, the Carrion Beetles flapped their green wings as they fought and retreated, finally entering the wormhole safely.
After a simple inspection of his subordinates, Entik felt like he was in so much pain that he wanted to die.
Of the 34 Carrion Beetles that he had painstakingly gathered after half a year of hard work, only 23 returned after this battle. This also meant that one-third of the Carrion Beetles had died on this godforsaken battlefield!
After all the beetles had retreated underground, Entik dejectedly dispersed his body, disintegrating into countless tiny beetles that entered the wormhole.
The Vampires did not interfere much with the retreat of the swarm of beetles. They only seized the time to clean up the remnants of Entik's troops on the surface. As for the foolishness of charging underground to continue the pursuit, Mary would not do such a thing unless she was out of her mind.
Perhaps that demonic worm, Entik, was hoping that she would do such a thing!
After the swarm of beetles had completely disappeared, the only ones left on the surface of the mountain forest were the hordes of Vampires. Soros, who had wanted to seize the opportunity to escape, was also surrounded by two Tier 2 Blood Knights. His face was deathly pale as he waited for his final fate.
Looking at Mary who was flapping her leathery bat wings as she slowly floated towards him, and then at his two former 'partners' who were sandwiched between him, Soros mustered the courage to self-destruct countless times, but each time, his body would 'mysteriously' fail amidst the trembling of his body.
A figure flapping his wings could be heard. Winlier descended from the sky and transformed into a cultured and elegant middle-aged noble before Soros.
Ever since he became a Vampire, Winlier's life had unknowingly extended by a lot.
As a human, his life might have come to an end, but as a Vampire, his long life had just entered the beautiful prime of his life.
That was why after experiencing a life of growing old and strong, he threw himself into the embrace of the Vampires without hesitation, becoming the first native to completely accept the transformation of a Vampire, both physically and mentally.
"Esteemed Lord Soros, I believe you understand the current situation. Do you still intend to use your life to continue fighting against us, the great Vampires? As long as you are willing to give up your weak human body and join the ranks of the Vampires, I, Winlier, am willing to introduce you to Her Majesty Mary! " Winlier stopped ten steps away from Soros with a face full of smiles. He rubbed his hands and began to show off his eloquence.
"I'd rather die than become a muddle-headed puppet like them!" Soros roared as he swung his sword. Although his voice was fierce, there was a hint of weakness in his words.
Winlier laughed even more merrily.
"Lord Soros, this is something you don't know. If you are extremely against becoming a Vampire, then when Her Majesty Mary spent her energy on The Embrace, it would inevitably damage your intelligence. But if you are willing to accept it from the bottom of your heart, then you can be like me. Not only will you retain your complete consciousness, but you will also be able to enjoy the long and strange journey of life. "
"Is that … true?" Soros asked with a trembling voice. His hand holding the sword could not help but tremble.
When he asked the first half of the question, he was still looking at Winlier, but when he said the last two words, his eyes involuntarily drifted to the Bloody Witch Mary who was floating proudly in the air.
"As long as you sincerely submit to me and become my slave, then I will allow you to retain your complete consciousness and all your abilities. Make your choice, Soros! " Mary's words were still as fierce as she was, and she did not allow the slightest bit of hesitation or hesitation.
After gritting his teeth for a moment, the Grade 2 Radiant Knight Soros finally lowered his head and threw away the sword in his hand. He knelt on one leg and said in a muffled voice, "I, Soros, am willing to submit!"
Mary's blood-red eyes shone with excitement and joy. She slowly lowered her body and nodded to Winlier who was standing beside her. "Go, tell them to clean up the battlefield!"
"Yes!" Winlier was overjoyed. He bowed and turned to leave.
Mary's words had undoubtedly affirmed his value. It also indicated that he now had the authority to command all the vampires except for the five Blood Knights (three of whom had died in battle).
For Winlier, who was naturally not good at fighting, this was a huge leap forward!
After Winlier left, Mary strolled in front of Soros and bent down to stare at him.
Meanwhile, the two Tier 2 Blood Knights stared intently at Soros from both sides. If Soros made any sudden movements, the swords in their hands would mercilessly cut him down.
"Raise your head!" Mary said coldly.
Soros obeyed and raised his head. His eyes met with Mary's blood-red eyes.
"Remember, only when you accept The Embrace wholeheartedly will you be able to retain your complete intelligence. So now, open your heart!" Mary extended her sharp fingertip and carved a witchcraft mark on Soros' forehead that represented her.
Blood flowed down Soros's face.
"I'm willing … I'm willing … I'm willing …" Soros repeated over and over again. His voice was hoarse and muffled, but his strong will was undeniable.
At that moment, Mary's sharp fingertip slid across her wrist. A stream of dark red blood immediately came out.
Mary lowered her arm and let the blood drip from her fingertip onto the witchcraft mark on Soros' forehead. Strangely, when Mary's blood mixed with Soros' blood, it actually lit up the witchcraft mark.
Sizzling sounds of corrosion could be heard from the bloodstains, and it started to etch deeply into Soros' skull through his flesh. Every drop of blood that landed on the mark was like boiling lava. It was so hot that Soros' body trembled and his face contorted.
However, he did not move recklessly and quietly endured the strange transformation of the vampire.
A powerful blood energy seeped into his body, corroding and modifying all the flesh, tissues, and organs in its path with an unstoppable force. If Soros had used his runic energy to resist it, the transformation process would not have been so smooth and peaceful.
But when the strange blood energy corroded into the nodes where the runic energy converged, the intense pain caused Soros to howl in pain.
