The blood-red wings flapped gently, and the gigantic bat slowly descended from the sky. A puff of smoke rose from the ground, and it quickly turned into a slender middle-aged man. He wore a black evening gown and a white shirt, and had a pale yet handsome face. If not for his blood-red eyes, no one would have thought that this mature and charismatic middle-aged man was a famous high-ranking Vampire among the Undead creatures …
Amidst the courteous greetings from the Vampire, everyone had already grabbed the Teleportation Scrolls in unison. This was no laughing matter. The power of level-18 was enough to kill anyone present in an instant. The difference between the two parties was too great. Such a disparity in power was not something that a few trial mages could contend with.
Facing such a terrifying existence, escaping was their only choice. As for this trial mission, they could only blame it on their bad luck …
"Let me think, how many years has it been since I last saw a real human? A hundred years? A thousand years …" After the Vampire landed on the ground, a cold smile appeared on his pale face. The way he looked at everyone was like a person who had been starving for hundreds of years, and suddenly saw a sumptuous dinner. His drooling gaze sent chills down everyone's spines.
Lin Li did not say anything, and simply stared at the Vampire in front of him. He gripped the Teleportation Scroll tightly with one hand, while the other quietly reached behind him to gesture to his companions who had just recovered from their petrified state. He gestured for them to leave.
One side was staring at their dinner, and the other was planning to escape in fear. The atmosphere was so tense that no one noticed that the last bit of black fog had entered the crystal. With the entry of the last bit of black fog, the crystal that had not been normal since the day it was dug out was now undergoing some very subtle changes …
The originally sparkling and translucent crystal was now completely soaked in dark red. From afar, it looked like a drop of solidified blood. Furthermore, that dark red color was not unchanging. Instead, it seemed to have some kind of life force that was flowing and struggling in the crystal, as if it was desperately trying to break free from some kind of restraint. Furthermore, it looked like it was going to succeed very soon …
"But no matter what, I have to thank you, humans. Thank you for bringing me dinner!"
As soon as the dry voice fell, the black evening gown seemed to be blown by a strong wind, and flipped up violently. Under the crescent moon, the Vampire was emitting an extremely powerful aura. In the face of this powerful aura that was filled with death and blood, even Lin Li could not help but feel suffocated.
He frowned, and was about to open the Teleportation Scroll in his pocket …
At this moment, the crystal on the ground suddenly exploded with a dazzling red light.
Everyone only heard a roar, and then an equally powerful aura exploded. Before they could understand what was going on, a dark red shadow had already shot out like a sharp arrow. With the "dada dada dada" sound of horse hooves, it rolled up a dark red shadow in the night sky …
"M-Nightmare …" The others did not understand what was going on, but Lin Li was very clear. This was the Nightmare that had almost caused a car accident in the Nightmare Mountains. Looking at the dark red shadow, Lin Li felt that it was extremely absurd. He was stunned for a long time, and finally could only force out two words. "F * ck …"
This was really a ghost …
The companions behind Lin Li were all in a daze, and their mouths were so wide open that an egg could be stuffed in. They were really scared out of their wits. The Vampire was here, and so was the Nightmare. They even felt that they had already mentally prepared themselves. Even if a fire-breathing dragon came now, it would not surprise them too much …
"Felic …" Mason stared blankly, and his voice sounded as if he was sleep-talking. "W-w-what … What is this …"
"It is said that it is called the Nightmare …" Lin Li's voice was not much better than Mason's. It had disappeared inexplicably in the Nightmare Mountains, and then appeared inexplicably in the Shadowglen. From the beginning to the end, there was a strange aura. This strange and inexplicable feeling had already made him breathless.
Just as the two of them were asking and answering, the Vampire had already screamed.
Lin Li looked over in horror, and saw two shadows, one black and one red, suddenly entangled with each other under the crescent moon. The Nightmare's four hooves were blazing with flames. Amidst the roars, that indestructible horn had already torn a hole in the Vampire's gown …
The Vampire, whose dignity had been violated, was also not to be outdone. It used its incomparably sharp claws and teeth to leave one wound after another on the Nightmare's half-real body. Both of them were level-18 creatures, and both possessed strength that was close to the peak. It was just a moment of contact, but it had already stirred up dazzling sparks.
Both of them were powerful beings who were proficient in Dark Magic, and they both had extremely strong physical strength. The moment they came into contact, they were already locked in a fierce battle. The Shapeshifter had a body that was half-real and half-illusory. It had a strong immunity to both physical and magical attacks. On the other hand, the Vampires could absorb the enemy's strength. Although every attack of the Vampires could not cause much damage to the half-illusory Shapeshifter, they could continuously absorb the Shapeshifter's strength. Almost every bite of the Shapeshifter would cause the dark-red light to dim a little.
Although the battle between the two level-18 creatures was not as grand as the battle between the Undead creatures during the day, the intensity was not inferior at all. A large amount of Dark Magic poured out like water, and there was an extremely intense magical wave in the surroundings. The surging magical elements were higher than the previous, and the pressure made everyone breathless. The incomparably sharp claws and teeth and the indestructible horn stirred up blood in the center of the battlefield, and instantly dyed a large area of land red …
It was only at this moment that Lin Li suddenly realized what kind of outcome such a strange and inexplicable battle could bring …
This was simply a heaven-sent opportunity …
Everyone had put a lot of effort into this Trial Mission. If they were asked to give up now, no one would be willing. Now that the Shapeshifter had appeared out of nowhere, it gave them a chance to gamble. Regardless of whether they guessed correctly or not, they had to gamble. Anyway, even if they gambled wrongly, everyone still had the Teleportation Scroll in their hands, so there wouldn't be too much of a loss.
Lin Li hesitated for a moment, but he quickly made up his mind. He clenched his teeth fiercely, and squeezed out two words from the gaps of his teeth. "Kill it!"
Mason was already completely scared out of his wits. When he heard this sentence, he asked inexplicably, "Kill who?"
"Idiot." Orrin's voice came from behind. At the same time, a burning fireball had already flown out with a "boom" …
"F * ck, just you wait …" Mason seemed to have woken up from a dream. While glaring fiercely at Orrin, he hurriedly recited a spell.
However, the first thing that hit the Vampire was not Orrin's fireball, but Larry's Flaming Storm. Although this level-nine mage had bad luck, his reaction was much faster than Mason's. Just as Lin Li's voice fell, he blasted out a Flaming Storm, and a dazzling flame surged on the Vampire's body …
"Despicable! You humans are all despicable! " Even a powerful level-18 creature would not be able to come out unscathed after two consecutive fire spells exploded on its body.
Only an angry scream could be heard from the battlefield, and it was as sharp as the cry of an owl. The two bombardment of fire spells had completely enraged the Vampire. It could only see it withstanding the Shapeshifter's Death Ripple. After its two incomparably sharp claws tore open two wounds on the Shapeshifter's body, it retreated quickly, and turned into a blood-colored bat in the sky. It fiercely pounced on the mage who had sneakily attacked it …
"A level-18 bullying a level-nine, and you dare to call me despicable?" Mason cursed fiercely, and then threw out an Ice Spear. The power of the Ice Spear was comparable to that of the Flaming Storm, and even the level-18 Vampire was forced to slow down a little.
And it was this delay that gave the Shapeshifter enough time.
Hearing the Shapeshifter's high-pitched roar, everyone only felt a huge surge of Dark Force. In a split second, the surroundings became gloomy, and even the crescent moon in the sky seemed to have lost its brilliance. The Dark Canopy created by the Shapeshifter was even more powerful than the Fantama Panther in the Nightmare Mountains. In the blink of an eye, it covered an area of a hundred meters. Even a level-18 Vampire would be immediately weakened in this Dark Canopy.
The blood-red bat, which had been flying extremely swiftly just a moment ago, actually found it extremely difficult to fly in the endless darkness. From afar, it looked like a red snail dragging a heavy mountain, moving step by step in the sky with great difficulty. The short distance of a few dozen meters was like the difference between heaven and hell.
At the same time, Lin Li had also completed his recitation of the spell. The magical crystal on the Winter Staff was emitting a dazzling light, and the incomparably violent magical elements let out a deafening roar in the night sky …
