The spinning steel ball in Hochman's hand suddenly stopped and he tossed it to his subordinate behind him. Strangely, the hand that was holding the steel ball had the same metallic luster as the steel ball. It did not look like a human hand.
"We've been waiting for you guys for a long time." Vidi stepped on the corpse. "This guy is an expert from the Lightless Alliance. He actually wanted to sneak in to take advantage of us. How foolish."
Before he could finish his sentence, Hochman slammed his arm down.
"Bam!!"
A black shadow beside him was slapped out of thin air. He grabbed it by the face and slammed it onto the ground.
"Boom!!"
Blood splattered everywhere.
The black shadow stopped moving completely and quickly turned into a cloud of black ash.
Hochman straightened up as if he had done something trivial.
"Invisible? Interesting. "
This instantaneous movement made Vidi's pupils constrict, and the black fog around him suddenly stopped spreading. It could only cover about half of the small square, and it was only a small half. Unknowingly, most of the area had been occupied by an invisible force field in advance.
A green light flashed across his eyes.
"Who are you? Why do you have such strong power? "
Hochman's expression did not change, and he began to walk slowly towards him. As he moved forward, his footsteps stepped on the ground. Wherever he walked, the air on both sides flashed with green light, and black figures that were originally invisible appeared one after another. These figures were frozen in the air, maintaining strange movements, but they were unable to move as if they were statues.
"Poof."
In an instant, the first black figure exploded and turned into a cloud of black ash. Then, there was another poof. The second, the third, the fourth …
Wherever Hochman walked, the invisible Blood Breeds that were hiding were all exposed. They froze in the air like insects trapped in amber and could not move. Then, they exploded one by one and turned into ashes.
An indescribable violent shadow was changing behind Hochman. The shadow behind him was no longer in the shape of a human shadow. Instead, it had changed into the shape of a huge, terrifying beast with spikes. It looked like a western mythical dragon.
A terrifying and oppressive pressure emanated from his body. Following the sound of his footsteps, the black fog space around Wade and the other two began to shrink bit by bit.
Perhaps even Garon did not expect that Hochman would still be able to break through the ordinary upper level. Moreover, along with Garon's advancement, Hochman had reached the level close to the peak of upper level. His soul even faintly carried some of the characteristics of Garon's soul, and that was the extremely terrifying tyrannical aura of the Nine-Headed Dragon.
Roar!
Wade suddenly roared, and sharp white fangs grew out of his mouth. His body twisted, and he appeared behind Hochman as if he had teleported, biting down on Hochman's neck.
His entire body was suffused with a faint green luster, as if he was covered in a layer of sticky green fluorescent paste.
What was even more subtle was that a white machete had appeared out of nowhere and pierced towards Hochman from both sides. It was as if two Vidys of the same strength were attacking him at the same time.
It should be known that an ordinary Blood Breed, even if it was a lower level Blood Breed or a middle level Blood Breed, would not be able to sneak up on Hochman without him noticing.
However, these two machetes did it. They seemed to have appeared out of thin air, and they appeared right next to Hochman's skin.
"Waterbird Esoteric!" Hochman's eyes instantly lit up, and an invisible whirlwind appeared around him.
"Dual Machetes!"
At that moment, a blinding white light seemed to have lit up the square.
*****
Blood slowly dripped down from his arm, and landed on the messy patch of black soil. It quickly seeped into the ground, and not a single drop of blood was left. Only the originally black soil had turned slightly dark red.
Dahm's mouth was wide open, and he was panting heavily as he stared at Arudo who was opposite him.
His current situation was not good. His right arm was completely crippled, and there was a large bloody wound on his left arm.
On the other hand, half of Arudo's head had exploded. However, it was defying common sense and was rapidly recovering. His head was not filled with brain matter, but it was the same as the rest of his body. It was a wriggling blood-red sticky substance.
Arudo, who had recovered, was also in a bad state. His clothes were torn and tattered, and it was obvious that he had been hit countless times by Dahm's Waterbird Fist, and his body had exploded countless times.
The metal ball beside him had turned into a few large pieces and scattered on the ground. The dual machetes were also broken into a few sections and were stuck in the ground. The surface of the blades was also filled with cracks, and they could no longer be used.
He was also in a terrible state. The vertical pupil in between his brows was a barometer of his strength, and it could reflect his current state like a thermometer. When he was at his peak, his vertical pupil was blood red. However, it was extremely difficult for him to even open his vertical pupil now. It was a sickly white color due to the loss of blood.
"We Blood Breeds are born with unlimited recovery abilities. Dahm, right? Let's see how long you can last!" Arudo forced out a laugh and mocked his opponent. Although he had heard about his opponent before coming here and knew that his opponent was probably not an ordinary human, he only realized how terrifying this human named Dahm was when he actually came into contact with him! He was actually able to go against an upper-level Blood Breed who had lived for thousands of years. This was simply unbelievable!
Finally, he had an inexplicable sense of worry in his heart.
Originally, the Blood Breeds were busy with their internal conflicts and did not pay much attention to the Holy Fist Palace, which was gradually becoming known as the strongest among the humans. They thought that no matter how strong the humans were, they would only be able to threaten the lower-level Blood Breeds. However, it seemed like …
"Support?" Dahm heard him and suddenly laughed strangely. "Look around you."
Arudo was slightly shocked and looked around. The Four Hunting Generals and the others had already spread out, as if they were not worried about the battle situation at all. Only a few of his subordinates were left standing far away, fiddling with a device. He did not know what it was for.
From afar, he suddenly heard the sound of a helicopter's propeller approaching.
"Could it be …!!??" He suddenly thought of a possibility and his pupils instantly contracted.
*****
In a dark space under the manor.
Three black shadows were gathered together. In the middle of them was a pillar that looked like the shape of a football World Cup. The pillar was only half the height of a person and there was a basin at the top. It was filled with scarlet blood.
At this moment, the blood was slowly rotating. The surface of the basin had a mirror-like effect, projecting scenes of the battle in the outside world.
"The people from the other two families have arrived as scheduled. I didn't expect the Lightless Alliance to be so strong. Luckily, we still have a backup plan," a neutral voice said in a low voice.
The other two people stared at the scene in the basin and did not reply. The atmosphere was faintly heavy.
"It's that old man AG … I knew it was him!" an old voice came from one of the black shadows.
What flashed past in the basin was AG's old face that was full of wrinkles. The two golden lions beneath him had actually transformed into two lion-headed monsters that were fighting with some middle-level Blood Breeds. He himself was under the cover of a black-green bat, walking slowly towards the manor with his walking stick. Step by step, no Blood Breeds could stop him.
However, the strange thing was that when he reached a certain distance, a puff of green smoke appeared under his feet. It was as if something was stopping him from moving forward.
"He's here for revenge," the last black shadow said lazily. "I told you not to get involved back then, but you didn't listen. Now you're in trouble."
The other two didn't say anything. Although they sounded as if everything was under control, the sacrifice of their clansmen, the deaths of the lower and middle level Blood Breeds, made them feel as if their hearts were bleeding. It was as if knives were stabbing their hearts over and over again.
"How's the loss now?" the lazy voice continued asking.
"Thirteen lower-level teams, five more …" the old voice replied softly. "Only one of the ten middle-level people came back. But don't worry, this is not just our family's matter. It's the decision of the entire Secret Party. The leader has already promised to compensate us for our loss. As long as we have enough Blood Essence, we can develop more middle-level and lower-level descendants. Now the leader is very interested in the people called Dahm and Hochman. He asked us to capture them at all costs. The leader is very interested in the root of their strength, something called Secret Techniques. "
"Indeed. This kind of Secret Technique could allow Dahm and Hochman to reach the Upper Level in just a few years. If it were to be widely spread … "The neutral voice said softly. Suddenly, even the lazy black shadow at the back moved slightly, revealing a shocked expression.
"A few years? Are you sure they only used a few years? And not some sorcerer's branch?!! "the lazy voice finally became serious.
At this moment, the blood in the basin began to boil. As if there was a fire burning underneath, the blood boiled violently and even emitted wisps of white smoke. The image inside instantly rippled and disappeared.
"It's time." There was a hint of joy in the old voice. Although most members of the Blood Race were indifferent to one another, it was still a very uncomfortable feeling to watch the strength of one's own family being continuously depleted.
"Let's begin."
The three black shadows reached out a hand at the same time and pressed on the three protruding horns of the blood basin.
A strange buzzing chant that sounded like a mosquito slowly rang out. This sound did not come from the three of them, but from the blood basin in the middle.
The boiling in the blood basin suddenly quieted down, forming a blood vortex like before. But this time, the vortex was different from before. The center of the vortex was getting deeper and faster, sinking deeper and deeper. There seemed to be a little black light brewing in it.
At the same time, the entire manor looked down from above.
With the Wellington Manor as the center, the ground within a radius of several hundred meters began to tremble. Layers of invisible barriers suddenly rose from the ground. This layer of walls instantly divided the team besieging the manor into two halves, forming a huge invisible maze composed of countless concentric circles.
Following the neighing of the horses, the Magic Mist Knights who were fighting with the strong Blood Breeds with blue battle axes were directly divided by the invisible walls. In a short period of time, more than ten riders were ruthlessly chopped off their horses by the Blood Breeds who seized the opportunity.
AG who was standing on the grass slowly raised his head and looked at the moon in the sky. Strangely, through the invisible walls, he saw that the moon was dark red like blood.
"So it's this … Holy Labyrinth?"
