Yodel instinctively felt that something was wrong.
Because after a short period of confrontation and probing, the white-haired Blood Clansman who attacked fiercely, along with his two juniors, suddenly became passive!
They no longer attacked, advanced, and flashed crazily and dangerously. They no longer used undetectable voices to control the blood slaves.
Then, Gilbert's anxious voice rose.
"Yodel!"
Even though they usually did not get along well, Yodel immediately understood what he meant!
The mysterious masked protector raised his head and saw Thales push open the door from the balcony to the house and disappear into the darkness in the house.
'Thales, why?'
As the mechanical gears behind the Crystal Drop lenses started turning, Yodel's vision quickly zoomed in on the third floor. However, that room was so dark that he could not see the situation inside at all.
Yodel's heart became restless.
His figure disappeared in an instant.
In an unknown grayish-white world, a grayish-white moon gradually appeared. Then, a grayish-white iron door appeared out of thin air. Then, it was connected to a grayish-white garden, grayish-white outer walls, grayish-white windows, grayish-white houses, and so on.
Soon, a grayish-white Vine Manor that was exactly the same as Vine Manor in reality, except for its strange color, appeared out of thin air in this world.
After an unknown amount of time, as if the sky was being pulled, a spot in the air, like the surface of water that was touched by a dragonfly, suddenly formed layers of visible ripples and spread outwards!
Finally, a normal-colored Yodel gently appeared in the grayish-white world from the center of the ripples in the air. He stepped on the grayish-white Vine Manor, which was also grayish-white.
He stepped on the grayish-white, deathly silent path that was almost the same as the real world, but devoid of any signs of life. In the world of shadows, the masked protector leaped from window to window in a practiced manner and climbed rapidly towards the third floor of Vine Manor.
He wanted to rush to the room on the third floor from the world of shadows!
However, when he was only a few meters away from stepping on the stone handrail of the balcony on the third floor, Yodel suddenly paused.
This was because Yodel could clearly feel that a moment ago, this grayish-white Path of Shadows seemed to have been struck by a heavy hammer from every corner of it!
'Resonance.'
These two words appeared in Yodel's heart.
'What a familiar feeling.'
He furrowed his brows and gave up on climbing.
The next moment, Yodel's left foot kicked the grayish-white outer wall of the grayish-white house at lightning speed. He rose into the air like a swallow and rolled backward!
Within a few meters of the grayish-white balcony, where Yodel had just stepped on, a strange spatial ripple appeared. The ripple spread out in a shocking manner, collapsing all the walls of the grayish-white houses around it!
This ripple was a shocking blood-red color.
This blood-red color instantly spread across the entire grayish-white Shadow Path!
Yodel, who was tumbling in the air, sighed without anyone noticing. Transparent spatial ripples appeared all over his body.
This Yodel's spatial ripple canceled out the incoming blood-colored ripple.
A few seconds later, his figure disappeared into the void.
In the real world.
Below the observation deck on the third floor of Vine Manor, a bloody mist shrouded a large area of space in midair. It expanded and contracted, as though it was vibrating rhythmically!
Yodel abruptly revealed himself amidst this strange vibration!
Yodel, who had revealed himself, tumbled and looked at the bloody mist surrounding him. He furrowed his brows in midair. It had been twelve years, and once again, he was forced out of the Shadow Path.
It was done in the same way as back then.
What awaited him was a well-prepared ambush.
The bloody mist stopped vibrating. A suffocating aura swept up countless droplets of blood and attacked him at high speed.
The bloody mist condensed into an old, blood-colored right hand in the air. It struck out a seemingly light palm at Yodel, who was in midair and had nowhere to borrow strength from.
It went straight for his chest.
But before the palm could get close, the clothes on Yodel's chest and abdomen made an ominous sizzling sound and shattered in the air!
If one observed carefully, they would discover that the surroundings of the blood-colored palm were filled with fine bloody mist that corroded all obstacles it encountered!
For example, Yodel's heart.
And he was stuck in midair, unable to dodge.
The Shadow Path could no longer provide him with protection.
In midair, Yodel, who was facing imminent disaster, could only calmly retract his chest and abdomen. He curled his body into a strange shape and increased the time it would take for him to meet the palm.
A little more than a second passed.
A lot of things happened in this little more than a second!
The dark and gloomy shortsword instantly appeared in Yodel's right hand.
In the blink of an eye, the sword in Yodel's hand flashed, and he slashed three times in a row!
None of the three slashes hit the dangerous blood-colored palm.
But the gears behind Yodel's Crystal Drop lenses spun rapidly. The fine bloody mist that filled the air appeared in his eyes as if it had nowhere to hide. Yodel waved his shortsword and caused three ripples that were invisible to ordinary people to appear in the terrifying bloody mist!
The bloody palm attacked without any resistance. It was only one second away.
The gears behind Yodel's lenses spun in a different direction instantly. The color of the Crystal Drop lenses changed, and so did his field of vision. The three ripples shook the blood around him. And behind the blood-colored palm, a special droplet of blood spun irregularly in the vibrations.
In the next moment, Yodel's shortsword drew an afterimage at an incredible speed and pierced the irregular droplet of blood.
* Shick! *
The tip of the sword gently tapped the palm formed by the bloody mist. Then, it swiftly retracted. He did not waste even an ounce of strength, but he was not stingy with any bit of energy either.
In the palm formed by the blood mist, a drop of blood that was neither too big nor too small shattered.
Then, the originally aggressive blood-colored palm instantly dissipated into nothingness the moment it was about to land on Yodel's chest!
Yodel landed lightly on the ground. On the left side of his chest and abdomen, a piece of clothing that had been seriously corroded by the bloody mist turned into ashes, revealing a hidden muscle. The skin on the surface had long since corroded completely, and blood flowed out.
The bloody mist that filled the air gathered behind the disintegrated bloody palm. It reformed into Chris Corleone's lifeless figure in front of Yodel, but it could not reform into his right palm.
Yodel did not even look at the wound on his chest and abdomen. He allowed the blood on it to stain the hem of his robe until his muscles automatically contracted to stop the bleeding from the corroded wound.
Chris furrowed his brows and swung his right arm. A new crimson palm bone grew out from his missing right wrist. It was mixed with the bloody mist, and at a speed visible to the naked eye, muscles and skin formed again.
The wound on Yodel's chest and abdomen seemed to be much more serious, but Chris' right hand grew out again, and it was completely unharmed.
However, a haze seemed to fill Chris' heart. He knew that in the dangerous battle where the supreme class elites decided life and death in an instant, the proud immortal had already lost to this mortal behind the mask.
At first, Yodel entered his unique Path of Shadows and disappeared from this world. However, he continued to move forward on the other side of the world.
Immediately after, Chris used the omnipresent bloody mist to form tens of thousands of droplets of blood. With a sudden eruption and a powerful resonance, he forcefully shook the brilliant Masked Protector out of the shadow he enjoyed alone.
Yodel, whose path was abruptly cut off, fell into Chris' trap in midair. The bloody mist, which was filled with a weak corrosive power, used the attraction of the origin blood to condense into a palm that was even denser and attacked Yodel.
Yodel had no way to borrow strength, dodge, or enter the shadow. Yodel was at an absolute disadvantage.
But it was only for an instant. Yodel used the rapid turn of his body to gain more than a second.
In this short period of slightly more than a second, Yodel confirmed the location of the origin blood among the tens of thousands of small blood droplets. He destroyed it and shattered Chris' right hand while he was at it.
The outcome of the battle between the supreme class elites was decided from this.
Yodel only lost a palm-sized piece of skin and the outer wall of some veins.
Chris, on the other hand, lost a drop of origin blood that represented the Blood Clan's exuberant life essence under Yodel's sword. It was a drop of origin blood that could only be formed after more than a hundred years.
Chris sighed. 'What an outstanding young man. What a terrifying latecomer.'
"What beautiful skills and astonishing instincts. It looks like I was ignorant when I compared the Kingdom's Wrath to you."
As Chris spoke, his body flashed again and he avoided Yodel's phantom-like sword strike.
"Even the Kingdom's Wrath can't do better than you."
Yodel ignored him. He stomped on the ground and charged towards a window on the second floor.
But Chris stood in front of him again.
"But there's nothing you can do now." Chris moved. While he avoided Yodel's attack, he also delayed Yodel's footsteps towards the third floor.
The immortal old man did not stop talking, but his words were filled with the chilling insight of a long-lived person. "Based on that boy's age, he's probably the smartest and calmest mortal I've ever seen in my six hundred years of life."
Chris, who had lost a drop of origin blood, no longer hoped to kill or even defeat this opponent. Supreme class elites were all dangerous people with vast power and high realms who could control and control them at will. With just a few moves, they had a clear understanding of the direction of the battle.
But he could not let Yodel disturb Her Highness's meal, especially since that infant mortal might be the key to Her Highness's awakening.
"Unfortunately, his curiosity and sense of danger were too strong. Even though he knew that reinforcements were near, he could not help but take the initiative to attack to save himself and defend himself. He probably could not stand the feeling of his fate being in someone else's hands.
"We only feigned an attack a few times, but he keenly noticed that the third floor might be our weakness and weakness.
"His curiosity and sense of danger made him unable to help but push open that door.
"But he did not know that that was where we wanted him to go.
"His Highness needs his blood and strength."
"Young man, it's too late for you.
"At this very moment, that mortal boy has already become Her Highness' power." Chris' eyes sparkled. For the first time, there was respect and admiration in his tone when he addressed Thales.
Yodel's shortsword trembled slightly.
When Thales saw the charred, withered hand that stretched out of the strange black coffin, he was stunned for a whole five seconds.
Intense memories flashed back to his mind, invading every cell in his brain once again. He grabbed a familiar scene from the void.
He only heard the same delicate and gentle voice, but it spoke rudely at that moment.
"Wu Qiren, you're hurting me! It's just a rewatch of a classic. Do you have to be so scared?! "
In Thales' ears, his voice from his previous life was filled with fear and trembling.
"I thought it was' The Godfather 'or something. Who would have thought that you would want to watch' The Grudge 'in the middle of the night?!
"This is a classic that will be handed down from generation to generation, okay? Look at how cute Kayako is … Ah, be gentler! My skin is still tender! "
"Damn it, she, she, she, she appeared! You have big boobs, help me block it! "
"You think my boobs are big now? Why do you usually … Oh, if you're scared, just close your eyes! "
"I can't help it. By the way, can we turn on the lights? She, she, she, she, she climbed down!"
"Wu Qiren! Go back to your chair obediently! "
"Damn it, my lady, don't pause your drawing here! I have to go up and down the stairs every day, okay — "
The moonlight was blocked by dark clouds. In the darkness, the memories from his previous life that flashed in his mind for no reason were interrupted by a terrifying roar.
"Ahhh —"
The sound was like a drowning person suddenly waking up from a state of suspended animation.
But to Thales, who was deeply poisoned by his previous life's memories, it sounded like the shrill howl of a thousand-year-old malicious spirit that was awakened overnight!
Thales shuddered and came back to his senses. He was stunned to find that the ghostly hand that seemed to be grabbing the edge of the coffin suddenly pulled itself out as the terrifying roar rang out!
A wrist that was as rotten as a mummy's.
A forearm that was charred black as if it had been burned by hellfire.
A shoulder that looked like it had been bitten by countless ants.
One by one, they were exposed outside the black coffin along with the hand!
The ghostly hand and the "main body" that was connected to it, which was barely humanoid, seemed to be slowly crawling out of the black coffin!
Then, a bone-chilling head slowly emerged from the edge of the coffin under the slightly exposed moonlight!
This skinny "head" had long, white, and wilted hair. Its entire face was charred black and rotten, and its disproportionately large black mouth and nose were actually a bottomless darkness!
Thales only felt goosebumps starting from his scalp and spreading to his fingertips.
Under the cover of the white hair, "it" opened its pitch-black "mouth". The large black mouth split open all the way to its ears!
"Ahhh —"
A shrill roar traveled into Thales' ears.
The boy's skin crawled, and he almost fell to the ground!
This monster did not stop. It crawled out of the black coffin slowly but rhythmically, as if it was feeling its surroundings.
From its head to its upper body, from its left arm to its right arm, the "head" finally crossed the edge of the coffin, and its entire upper body fell to the ground.
Finally, the left hand that was as shriveled as a ghost gently touched the ground.
At that moment, Thales' mind was blank. He trembled slightly and slowly inhaled a breath of cold air.
At that moment, the head that was stuck to the ground seemed to have sensed something.
It paused for a moment, then slowly raised its head in Thales' direction.
The shriveled white hair fell to the sides, and its "face" was slowly revealed. It was facing Thales.
And where the eye sockets should have been …
But Thales saw …
There were two large, irregular black holes.
The boy almost fainted from fear.
'This looks like a dried corpse that hasn't been completely burned?'
But it seemed that after transmigrating, the rich experience on the streets had made him a lot braver. Even though Thales was afraid, he still trembled and picked up what little rationality he had left in his brain.
'No matter what that thing is,' Thales thought silently as he shuddered. 'I have to escape!
Even though it looks scary, it's not fast. I just have to — '
Thales tried his best not to think about the scenes in the horror movies from his previous life. He turned his feet and twisted the comfortable children's leather shoes that Gilbert had prepared for him (even though they had been greatly worn out during the running). He was prepared to rely on his speed to escape from this dangerous place.
'I just have to wait for Yodel's rescue,' Thales thought. But the moment he turned his leather shoes, the demon-like monster suddenly pounced out of the coffin!
It was like a headless demon that had been blindly swimming around suddenly awakened!
"Ahhh — ah!" The shrill roar rang again!
Thales, who was filled with terror points, was so frightened that he turned around and wanted to run!
