The bat flew over from the distant sky but refused to land.
It let out a short sound, and after a while, it turned back to the north.
"Gwen is not a fool. He knows that we are outnumbered here."
The vampire sneered as she understood Gwen's meaning.
"What are you afraid of? There are three of us. Why should we be afraid of him?" Kanos' eyes flashed with a trace of gloominess. "He wants us to go to an abandoned village in the north to find him. He is afraid that we will awaken our compatriots and snatch his high-grade blood core."
"Let's go!"
The three vampires immediately hit it off. They turned into bats and flew towards the north.
…
Inside the castle's gate, Marvin's figure slowly appeared.
A contemplative look appeared on his face.
Originally, his trip to the Tulip Castle was for Eriksson's brooch.
Now that the treasure was in his hands, he should leave immediately.
However, the words "high-grade blood core" caught his attention.
This thing was a crystallization of power that could only be condensed by high-grade vampires. Not only was it beneficial to vampires, but it also had similar effects on other creatures.
This thing was somewhat similar to the Leaf of Nature. Through the absorption or interpretation of the essence within the crystallization, it could improve a person's physical fitness. It could also allow mages to comprehend some spells that only vampires could master.
More importantly, Ma Wen knew that high-grade blood cores were like the hot springs in which the fragments of the earth crystal were soaked. They were one of the few treasures that could safely improve a person's physical fitness.
Generally speaking, people below the Legendary Realm who consumed high-grade blood cores would have their strength and physique improved a little.
Currently, Marvin was rather lacking in these two attributes.
He hesitated for a moment, but in the end, he activated the Demon Restraining Footwork and followed them.
…
The bat's flying speed was not fast. In addition, it was already night time. Ma Wen summoned a crow to follow behind them.
As for himself, he followed them from afar.
Soon, they arrived at the village that Gwen had mentioned.
Such villages were common in the Wasteland of Death. Occasionally, there would be wandering souls floating by, but they were not harmful to humans.
Most of the houses in the village had already collapsed.
The three bats turned into human forms and landed in the center of the open space.
There, a cloaked man was waiting quietly.
Ma Wen arrived quietly, ready to watch the show first.
The strength of the cloaked man, Gavin, seemed to have improved since the last time they met. At that time, he was at the peak of Grade 3, but now, he actually had the strength of a Legend!
For the natives, even for the gifted Blood Clan, this was extremely inconceivable.
"Kanos, as you requested, I've brought you the high-grade blood core."
Gewen calmly looked at his cousin and said in a low voice, "Why are you still entangled with the secret society?"
The other two vampires snorted coldly but didn't say anything.
Kanos looked at Gervin with a faint smile.
"You gave me a high-rank blood core just like that. The elder council really treats you well, my brother …"
Gewen was still as calm as ever. "I'm willing to give you this high-grade blood core as long as you're willing to give up on becoming a member of the Dark Party."
"Give up?"
Hearing this word, Kanos suddenly laughed wildly. "How do you expect me to give up?"
The next second, his body suddenly swelled. Although his body size didn't increase by several times, the outline of his muscles became more distinct!
His eyes faintly flickered with a terrifying scarlet radiance.
The mark in the shape of a guideline flashed between his eyebrows. Everything seemed so demonic.
"The Dark Party's [Blood Hunger]?"
Gewen's voice fluctuated for the first time. "I didn't expect you to complete the transformation in such a short time!"
"Of course, I'm the same as you in the pursuit of power."
Kanos stared coldly at Gewen. "It's just that I don't have as many resources as you."
"Ever since I was young, everyone said that I'm inferior to you. I'm not as talented as you, and I'm not as diligent as you. I've used all methods to surpass you, but I've failed in the end. "
"Later, I understood that in the eyes of the Light Party, I'll always be inferior to you."
"You degenerate Blood Breeds should be exterminated just like those useless humans! Only by constantly hunting can you become stronger! "
With that, a terrifying aura emanated from his body!
His strength seemed to be on par with Gewen's.
The other two Blood Clan members also completely released their strength.
The mark in the shape of a guideline flashed between their eyebrows.
This was the [Blood Hunger], the unique mark of the Dark Party.
"Gewen is in big trouble now!"
Ma Wen thought to himself.
…
Among the Blood Clan, the battle between the Light Party and the Dark Party was actually very intense. The degree of hostility between them was even more exaggerated than between the Blood Clan and other creatures.
The Light Party had always believed that the Blood Clan should be high and mighty, and shouldn't become bloodthirsty and murderous monsters. They should become more civilized and use reasonable methods to increase their strength.
But the Dark Party was different. This was a group formed by the extremists of the Blood Clan.
They had developed many abilities unique to the Dark Party, and the [Blood Hunger] was one of them.
Blood Clan members who had activated the [Blood Hunger] would maintain an extreme excitement for blood.
Under such circumstances, their strength would explode by about 30 to 40 percent.
Originally, these three Dark Party Blood Clan members together were definitely not Gewen's match. But after activating the [Blood Hunger], the situation was very different.
Of course, this secret technique was not without its flaws.
Blood Clan members who were in the [Blood Hunger] would be very bloodthirsty. They would be addicted to the thrill of killing and sucking blood, gradually forgetting their rationality.
Basically, they would have to undergo a willpower test every 20 minutes. If they failed the test, they would lose their rationality for a period of time and become pure monsters!
This was also one of the reasons why the Light Party had always criticized the Dark Party. They believed that creatures like the Blood Clan should not be like the bloodthirsty demons of the Abyss.
As creatures with rationality, they should not turn themselves into monsters that had lost their minds.
But there were always many people who would do anything in pursuit of power.
Kanos was obviously one of them.
In order to defeat Gewen, who had always been on top of him, he did not hesitate to seek refuge with the Dark Party and activated the [Blood Hunger]!
He wanted to prove to the people of the Light Party, especially the Elder Council, that he, Kanos, was not inferior to the genius Gewen!
…
The battle began without any warning.
Kanos, who had activated the [Blood Hunger], was obviously too excited. Without saying anything, he suddenly exerted his strength.
Whoosh!
A scarlet shadow streaked across in front of Ma Wen and directly crashed into Gewen.
And the other two Dark Party Blood Clan members had also started their own attack mode from the left and right respectively!
Ma Wen held his breath, but his hands secretly took out two pistols!
The [Satan] in his left hand and the [Astaloa] in his right, the silver bullets were already loaded.
