703 Gruesome Battle 1 (1/2)

Chapter 703: Gruesome Battle 1

The Holy Labyrinth…

What a farfetched item.

At the North, Nasira was wearing only one pristine white leather glove. She actively moved her five fingers as she tried to get used to the comfort of the glove.

Occasionally, people in black cloaks with guns in their hands would appear beside her and rush towards the manor like killing machines without fear. They then would fight against the remaining Blood Breeds present.

”The rumored Holy Weapon of the Blood Breed: 'The Labyrinth' had completely disappeared from the previous Blood Breed's civil war and hasn't appeared in many years. I didn't expect it to see it here…” Nasira looked up at the blood moon in the sky. She didn't seem to be worried about a holy weapon being activated.

The activation of the Holy Labyrinth had excited all of the Blood Breeds; their bodies had turned black and some of their eyes had even turned red. Their fangs and claws had lengthened and their strength and speed both increased by at least threefold.

In an instant, the stalemate was broken and the Lightless Alliance started to lose ground on all three sides.

Nasira's side was especially bad, as a huge group of soldiers and horses had been separated from the main force by the Labyrinth and were unable to continue their attacks. The Mystical Mist Knights could pass through physical matter temporarily, which meant that they could attack if they pervaded through the walls. However, they weren't able to permeate through this invisible labyrinth and could only be trapped hopelessly within a channel that didn't even span 1 meter wide.

With the manor as the epicenter, cries could be heard in all directions.

Nasira gently tugged on her glove. Seeing that she had lost a considerable amount of her Mystical Mist Knights, she finally walked forward slowly. She raised her gloved hand and touched the first layer of the Labyrinth's wall.

Sizzle…

The invisible labyrinth's wall started to melt as if it had come in contact with an extremely corrosive substance. The wall immediately degenerated and a huge hole was quickly formed. Nasira then strode through the hole.

At this point in time, both the Lightless Alliance and Blood Breed had suffered greatly. Two hundred of the Mystical Mist Knights that Nasira had brought along were trapped within the Labyrinth and couldn't escape. In addition to the previous losses, there were only about ten of them left struggling while being surrounded by the ever-increasing amount of vampires.

However, Nasira acted as if she didn't see the situation; she fought off the underlings, corroded the invisible walls and walked further in without any hint of concern.

”Leader!!” the remaining knights panted. They were surrounded by the vampires whenever they weren't careful, and some of them had fallen off their horses. The leading young witch wiped off the blood on her face and attempted to escape on her horse.

A thud could be heard as she collided with the labyrinth's invisible wall and fell from her horse. The vampires which had surrounded her started swarming over her. These vampires had been ordered by the Upper-Level Blood Breeds and had long lost their minds, and all that was left of them was their husk and feasting ability. They had already turned into the rumored devouring vampire corpse.

After a few cracking sounds that sent chills up everyone's spines, what was left behind at the spot where the female knight fell were a few tattered rags. Even her bones had been devoured.

Nasira did nothing but sigh.

”This is a necessary sacrifice. My sisters, the Mystical Mist Knights, please rest in peace.”

”With such a huge sacrifice, what if the plan still fails…?” a voice came from behind. It was a tall man in a full heavy body armor. Two blue flames were glowing under the helmet and his face couldn't be clearly seen.

”Manasi, have you cleared your side?”

Nasira asked softly.

The two of them then went further in.

”I've temporarily bound them with the Top Formation. This is so troublesome. I believe a few major households from the Blood Breed's Secret Party are here. The situation is slightly worse than what we have expected,” Manasi whispered.

”However it's still within the plan, no?” Nasira replied softly.

The two of them soon disappeared into the night as they walked into the manor.

*******************

The helicopter descended slowly.

Garen frowned as he jumped out of the cabin. As his black leather boot landed on the ground, his shoes sank into the bloody field below. The field was completely covered in fresh blood.

A few elites from the Nighthawks jumped down from the airplane. They stood together with him as they looked at the huge battlefield at least ten meters away from them.

It seemed like there was a huge invisible cover that had restricted the battlefield to a dome. The battle had entered its final stage and the winner was evident, considering the number of ash piles present on the field.

The people Garen had brought along had either escaped or killed by the vampires. What was left was just a huge amount of vampires piling together in a circle as if they were attacking someone.

”This settles it. Mortals with firearms are no match for the vampires,” Garen crouched down as he dug up some dirt and sniffed at it. Most of it was the blood of the humans and it carried just a faint hint of the Blood Breeds' scent.

”This is something that cannot be changed,” Angel whispered from behind, ”The natural talent of the Blood Breed is too great and it is not something that we can hope to catch up to in such a short amount of time.”

”Where's Dahm and Hochman?” Garen asked softly.

Angel adjusted her spectacles as she read the data.

”Lord Dahm is currently in front of the forest to the right and he seems to be fighting against a Blood Breed as of now. Lord Hochman has already gone deep inside and seems to be surrounded by a huge amount of Blood Breeds. However, judging from the probability of him being alive, he shouldn't be in grave danger.”
