Chapter 302: Vampires! (1/2)
Lord Ice Moon POV
-----
Invaders entered my room from the window at my side, two or three figures coated in shadows. They exuded a strong red aura, and their mana was vast.
I quickly reacted, I was a Rank 4 after all, I had the power and the meaning to even fight back against surprise attacks.
I conjured a strong spell, Freezing Zone, to freeze anything around me, this way I can immobilize them and see who they are.
But they ended being quicker than even my chant speed.
A fist reached my chest, this fist was strong, it was charged with immense quantities of mana and in a superb way, the mana emanated from the fist reached my chest and emptied my lungs of the air, while breaking three of my ribs and even impacting my heart.
It hurt.
BOOM!
I was thrown to the ground helplessly. I tried to quickly release some quick magic but even that was negated from my grasp as a red needle pierced my neck and paralyzed me.
I was a weak man… to think I could be paralyzed so easily by this toxin.
My entire body ended in a vegetable state, but I could still speak.
I looked at the figures still shrouded in darkness, the only thing I could see was their eyes. They were crimson-red, and their very bodies exuded a strong bloodthirst as well.
These creatures… are they Vampires?
I can already tell by those two things. In the books I've read about them, they might have the ability to shroud their bodies on illusions, their eyes shone with crimson-red light, and their auras were eerie and of bloodthirst…
In this continent in the past, our Venerable hunted them down near extinction. They were demons that took over the world and terrorized all other races. It was a chaotic era of blood.
But these monsters are still alive, lurking within the shadows of other sects, working as puppeteers of sect masters. Many sects had been found to being manipulated from behind by Vampires.
To think that there would be one day where they would target me.
I have left completely hopeless! I couldn't even see them coming! How strong are they?! And if they're so strong, what could they possibly get from me…
”Who… who are you?!” I asked, my voice was trembling. Despite how old and strong I was, I couldn't help but ask this question while my lips trembled… I had become such a pathetic and tiny man now. Before true might, I end becoming terrified and submissive.
I am really nothing…
I sensed their Auras, they were all Rank 4 like me… to think that our level of power was so vastly different despite our realms being the same! The tools and powers that Vampires enjoy are vastly different than those of us mortals. The moment they become Vampires they acquire powerful regeneration, amazing strength, and powerful blood magic, capable of doing many things, such as toying with life itself and control a person's internal organs.
