"The power to bring the dead back to life? No, this is the Lich King's elixir of immortality. " Laing was still kneeling on one knee as he stared at the changes happening to Matthew Bard's body. "So that's how it is. This is an inferior imitation of the elixir of immortality created by the original Lord of the Undead. You've become a vampire!"
The Lord of the Undead, Nagash, had been studying the path of the undead for thousands of years when he was still alive. He had created the famous elixir of immortality, but this elixir of immortality had a side effect. Although humans who used the elixir of immortality would live a long life and remain young forever, their thirst for blood would increase day by day until they completely turned into bloodthirsty monsters who had lost all reason.
In short, they would become vampires.
The story of the few blood ancestors and their families had already been told before, so it would not be repeated here.
Generally speaking, the way to develop a new vampire was through a blood kiss, where a higher-ranked vampire would bestow its own blood upon a human and turn them into a new vampire.
However, Matthew Bard was different. He chose to drink the elixir of immortality given by Akerman, a kind of imitation of Nagash's elixir of immortality. This elixir was not enough to give him the incomparable strength of the few blood ancestors, but it was enough to heal all his injuries and turn him into a vampire.
Everyone who was watching the battle between the champions was astonished.
"Hmph! All undead deserve to die! "The King of the Forest, Ao Laing, roared angrily and continued to watch this battle.
"He's really become a vampire!" Berchemund sighed. "Laoen only had one son. He betrayed, fell, killed his own father, and even became a puppet of the undead. I wonder what expression Calliord will have when he sees this scene."
"This is troublesome." Francois, on the other hand, was frowning. His father-in-law looked at the duel between Clayon and Marhugh Bard worriedly and said in a low voice, "The strength and speed of a vampire far surpass that of a mortal. Also … with this poisonous snake's current constitution, after he becomes a vampire, his strength will increase by several times."
"Then … Then what should we do? Sir François? "Teresa was extremely anxious as she watched.
"There's nothing we can do about it. This is a sacred battle between champions." The Lake Goddess Witch Morgiana didn't look too good either.
"Now, we can only rely on Laing himself."
Matthew Bad gasped for breath. He gradually turned from a living person to a dead person, or rather, a half-dead person.
"A dead man cannot be a Knight King, Viper." Laing tried to delay Matthew Bard's actions through dialogue. He said mockingly, "Or is there something wrong with your brain?"
"I must, for revenge," Mathewbard muttered to himself. "I will use everything I have."
"Use everything you have?" Laing continued to stimulate Maxiu Bard's spirit with sharp words. His words were like the sharpest blade, cutting Maxiu Bard's heart. "You're no longer a human being. Is this the price you're willing to pay? From today onwards, you will forever be in the company of the dead and blood. Do you think it's worth it? "
"I must, for revenge!" Matthew Bard gradually recovered from the terrible change. He kept repeating the same sentence. When he raised his head, he seemed to have adapted to the change. "Everything I do is to save this country. In order to pull this country out of the lies, I am willing to give up everything."
Laing smiled bitterly. He knew that it was useless to say anything more.
But it didn't matter. Taking advantage of the conversation, he had already expelled the poison. The Chosen of the Lake Goddess Champion stood up again. He held Nemesis tightly again. "It seems that our battle won't stop here."
"Do you have a name? Laing Macado? What's your full name? " Maxiu Bard pulled out his heart from his chest and crushed it. The injury caused by Nemesis was so severe that he had no choice but to tear his heart apart. The effects of the Elixir of Immortality were extraordinary. The remaining effects of the elixir took effect and he immediately grew a new heart. Mu Xilong's viper stared at Laing. His eyes suddenly flashed with an inexplicable meaning. "Tell me your full name. I want to know."
"My full name is Laing Macado," Laing said in a disgusted tone. Gaining the approval of a vampire? This was strange enough.
"Then it's a pity. I also want to tell you that my full name is Matthew Bard." "If I die … Well, I'm already dead." The answer he got was a seemingly brainless sentence that didn't make sense at all, "If I die … Fine, I'm already dead."
After that, the two fell into silence.
The sound of splashing water could still be heard from the banks of the Sannes River. The grass and wildflowers on the field had been destroyed in the battle earlier. The two champions were less than ten meters away from each other. They faced each other without saying a word.
The flames on Nemesis were still burning. Laing looked around. The beautiful Kingdom of the Knight King was still standing here. This country had resisted foreign enemies for thousands of years since its establishment. The breeze blew his cloak and hair. Laing suddenly remembered the surprise of the high elves. When the "Sailing King" Finnuba came to Le-Angoulême by ship, he thought that he would see a muddy, primitive, and slash-and-burn human tribe.
But the humans had created such a glorious and brilliant civilization.
"You have something too. You have something to protect. I have a target for revenge. Laing, I said, we are very similar," Matthew Bard muttered to himself. "If … I mean if …"
"There are no ifs in life." Leon raised the Goddess of Vengeance. His expression was indifferent. After coming out of his thoughts, he nodded slightly at Ma Xiubad. This was the most basic form of respect. He could feel Ma Xiubad's persistence.
Both sides moved again and charged at each other!
Matthew Bad let out an angry roar. He opened his mouth wide, and the viper sword in his hand danced faster and faster in the air, spraying out one sword flower after another.
After turning into a vampire, his wrist strength and speed had increased by several times. The Viper Sword contained a huge amount of power that Laing could not resist. The champion of the Lady of the Lake gritted his teeth and retreated, trying to find a flaw in Matthew Bard's attack.
But Matthew Bard's attack was flawless.
"This will never stop until my revenge is over. Otherwise, I will never stop!" Matthew Bard's face showed extreme enjoyment. "Now, let me kill you!"
"I won't allow it!" Laing could not resist Matthew Bard's powerful attack. He gripped the hilt of Nemesis tightly. After being beaten back seven or eight steps, he finally found an opening by sliding sideways.
Was this the power of a vampire? As expected of the ultimate creature created by the Lord of the Undead! Laing only felt that his wrist strength and speed had been suppressed by Matthew Bard. The damage of the psionic flames and psionic lightning had been greatly reduced.
His blood was boiling!
"For the Lady! For Brittany! For Landuin! Hah! " Laing roared and stomped on the ground. The eruption of the earthquake forced Mu Xilong's Viper back. Then, a four-meter-long lance appeared in his hand. Laing held the Indestructible Lake Light in one hand and Nemesis in the other. "The living and the dead cannot coexist. I will not fail here!"
The lance swept across, tearing the space apart. The air waves danced, and the pure white moonlight drew a semicircle in the air.
The brilliance of the moonlight merged around Laing's body. A beam of light that was more than ten meters long and nearly one meter wide gradually formed.
"Reach the end, surpass the boundary, and witness this light! Viper! "
"Heavy Lake Light!"
Ryan shook the Undestructible Light Lake and swept it down towards Ma Xiubad from the sky. The light beam emitted a terrifying might that caused the river water to tremble. Amidst the smell of burning air, the Undestructible Light Lake went straight for Ma Xiubad's body!
"You are a pretty good opponent, Laing Macado!" Matthew Bard proudly faced the light beam. He was full of arrogance. He chose to face the light beam directly.
The Viper Sword and the light beam collided head-on, and sparks flew everywhere.
"Arghhhhh!" Laing increased his strength. He poured all the strength in his body into the lance and pressed it down forcefully.
"The inheritance of Landuin … is only so-so!" The vampire replied with a look of disdain. His facial features were twisted into a ball. The viper sword blocked the power of the light beam. His hands had been burned into a bloody mess by the excessive lake light. His body sank into the ground because he blocked Ryan's attack.
But he still managed to block the attack. Matthew Bard suddenly turned the tip of his sword and blocked the lance. He reached out and grabbed the Indestructible Lake Light and pulled it back forcefully!
Ryan abruptly bent forward in an attempt to snatch the spear back, but the spear was out of his hand and there was no way to avoid it. The Viper Sword slashed down along the body of the spear, and Ryan had no choice but to immediately let go. When the Nemesis and the Viper Sword clashed again, Mathewbad had already stepped on the Undestructible Lake Light under his feet. His unwavering eyes flickered with terrifying pleasure as he advanced towards his prey.
His attack was interrupted. Laing tried to fight back against Matthew Bard in pain. But Matthew Bard, who had become a vampire, was too fast. His arm had already grabbed Laing's neck. His five fingers wrapped in gauntlets pinched down hard. Laing was thrown to the ground on the spot. Matthew Bard pressed him to the ground crazily and smashed him hard on the ground.
With one loud bang after another, Ryan let out a pained howl, his spine cracking.
"Die! Die! " Matthew Bard also pinched down crazily. He wanted to kill Laing just like that, even though the psionic lightning and psionic flames flowing out of Laing's body had burned his arm black, leaving only pale bones.
After continuous hammering, Clayon finally broke free from Matthew Bard's arm. But when he focused his attention on this, the vampire's sword pierced through his ribs and slid through his flesh with a clear hissing sound.
"Ugh!" The Viper Sword pierced Laing's chest. Matthew Bard showed his strength. He lifted Laing from the ground. Laing struggled with all his might.
Matthew Bard, who had become a vampire, sneered. "Our battle is over! Laing, you've lost! "
The long and tough Viper Sword pierced deeply into Laing's chest. The heart-wrenching pain eroded his every sense. Laing was in so much pain that his whole body twisted. He opened his eyes wide. "Not necessarily!"
"Spear!" Laing suddenly stretched out his hand behind Matthew Bard.
"What?" Matthew Bard subconsciously looked behind him.
The Light of the Indestructible Lake, which had fallen behind the vampire, suddenly rose from the ground and pierced through Matthew Bard's chest from behind!
"Damn it!" Matthew Bard could feel the pure power of the Light of the Indestructible Lake purifying his body. The vampire kicked Laing away, then turned around and pulled the spear out of his chest from behind.
Laing staggered backward and was forced to kneel on the ground. He covered his chest with one hand and grabbed Nemesis with the other to support himself from falling.
"So strong! Is this the power of a Saint-level expert after turning into a vampire? " Laing gasped for breath. His blood flowed down his chest and covered his armor. "In this country, except for the Green Knight, I'm afraid no one can fight against me."
"Damn it! This little divine power, this little divine power … … can't stop me! " At this time, Matthew Bard was screaming in pain from the purification of the Light of the Indestructible Lake. He pulled out his spear and used the power of his blood to resist the purification power of the Lake Fairy.
If Laing could attack again and add the power of Nemesis, he might have a chance to win. But he couldn't. His body was now corroded by the poison. He had to dispel the poison, just like how Matthew Bard had to dispel the purification power of the Lake Fairy.
Wait … … poison? Something suddenly popped into Ryan's mind.
The battle of the champions was still going on. Matthew Bard spent more than ten seconds to get rid of the divine power of the Lake Fairy. The vampire's power recovered very quickly. He roared and immediately rushed toward Laing. "This is your curtain call, bitch, Chosen of God champion!"
The blood-red shadow rushed toward Laing at an extremely fast speed.
At this time, Laing still hadn't expelled the poison. The viper immediately arrived in front of Laing. The viper sword in its hand was raised high, ready to give Laing the final blow!
"Ha!" Laing raised Nemesis to block. He seemed to have reached his limit. His movements were not standard, and a lot of blood flowed out of his chest.
The blood fell on Matthew Bard's face.
The fresh blood aroused Matthew Bard's appetite. The vampire had used up too much strength in the battle. He urgently needed fresh blood to replenish himself. Smelling the blood, the newborn vampire instinctively stuck out his tongue. He licked the edge of his lips and swallowed Laing's blood.
Ah, very fresh, very delicious … …
The next second, Matthew Bard's eyes widened. He let go of his sword and covered his throat with both hands. "What?! What is this??? "
"Drinking my blood?" Laing laughed at Matthew Bard's stupidity. Now, a few silver lines began to appear on the vampire's neck and gradually spread to his whole body. "Does it taste good? Do you want to drink some more? "
"Ugh! Wuwuwuwu! " Matthew Bard covered his throat with all his strength. He frantically retreated and vomited non-stop. Black blood and yellow-green bile spewed out of his mouth. "You, what the hell are you … …"
"I'm a pure human!" At this time, Laing had already expelled the poison. He endured the pain and stood up. The corners of his mouth curled up and he smiled ferociously.
"You … …" The young vampire shook his head desperately. He suddenly realized that Laing's blood contained something. It was a primordial purifying power condensed from pure subspace psionic energy. Now, this purifying power had bypassed the defenses on the surface of his body and rampaged through his body, destroying everything.
"Ahhh!" Matthew Bard howled in pain. He rolled on the ground, trying to resist this power.
"It's over, Viper." Laing gasped for breath. He raised the Nemesis and aimed at the target. "Take your ambition, your conspiracy, your absurd ideals, and your persistence and disappear from this world!"
"Wuwuwu!" Matthew Bard's eyes widened. He suddenly shouted, "The Fairy of the Lake … … the real … …"
"Die!" Laing did not give him a chance to finish his words. The Nemesis fell from above.
Black blood splattered.
Three seconds later, Laing, who was staggering and unsteady on his feet, stubbornly stood up from the banks of the Sannes River. He raised the head in his hand high and roared.
"In the name of the Lady! Matthew Bard, the Viper of Mu Xilong, shall be beheaded here! "
"In the name of the Lady! Matthew Bard, the Viper of Mu Xilong, shall be beheaded here! "
"In the name of the Lady! Matthew Bard, the Viper of Mu Xilong, shall be beheaded here! "
