Chapter 235 Vampire Strategy
When the chaotic dark energy from the undead was forced into his body, Simpson felt completely unwell.
If magic is as important to a spellcaster as water, then dark energy is the component part of the body of a vampire who has transformed into non-material (energetic) form - he cannot even actively reject it!
The black mist, which was supposed to be light and invisible, was forcibly fused by the undead's dark energy, which was not pure at all, and turned into a semi-solid energy body. Following that, the undead's violent and violent attacks followed...
"How ridiculous! How ridiculous!" Simpson was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
After losing contact with the blood slave, Simpson knew that Innadelli was not safe.
If the stoker in Darcy's villa disappeared quietly, there would be no problem. But if he was discovered and killed, then even if the local sheriff was confused, he would send people to investigate the blood slave's identity before his death, and this would undoubtedly lead to Simpson's exposure - this was the bloody experience accumulated by the vampire clan.
But the transfer cannot be done just like that...Darcy's servants were turned into blood slaves, and he, the guest, left in a hurry. Even Adams, an idiot whose brain was corroded by women and alcohol, would guess that there was something wrong with Simpson.
For a vampire, infiltrating a human family and obtaining a human identity is an extremely troublesome and laborious task. Simpson was unwilling to give up his existing identity. After weighing the pros and cons, Simpson decided to hold back for the time being, stay for two or three days, and then formally resign to the Darcy family.
His plan... is not a big problem. After all, no matter which city's public security station or church, if a major case occurs, they can initiate an investigation within three days, which is considered to be fulfilling their duties and being swift and resolute.
Vampires understand human society, and it is normal for cases that do not involve the upper nobility to take ten days or half a month for investigators or agents to be dispatched, or for them to simply leave the case alone because it is too troublesome - like when he attacked Joey Rachel in Moses Port, the church in Moses Port adopted a laissez-faire approach.
Unexpectedly, more than an hour after the blood slave lost contact, Simpson, who was staying in Darcy's villa on Fifth Street in the Granser District with a group of drunkards, heard the noises made by the undead outside.
Simpson went upstairs in doubt and looked out from the balcony. He saw two gangs of undead fighting fiercely in the garden at the intersection of Fifth Street. The whole ghost world was in disarray.
Of course he knew that there was a black magician in charge of Innadri, which was the main reason why he chose to come alone without bringing a servant - his servant was too young and could not disguise himself well.
No one will hate the black magician more than vampires. Even though both parties are followers of dark energy, in the eyes of the black magician, vampires are just "carriers of materials"!
The lich Wayne, who fled due to the arrival of the "Nightmare Butcher", had a hatred for the vampires of Moses Port that was longer than the Barcelo River. During the more than a hundred years that guy had been entrenched in the southern border of the Rhine Kingdom, he had secretly killed several vampire descendants.
The appearance of the ghost of the Nightmare Butcher in the Granser district meant that the Nightmare Butcher, a dark magician even more notorious than the lich Wayne, had discovered the abnormality in the Granser district; Simpson could no longer hide it, so he made up an excuse to fool Adams, who was so drunk that he could not speak clearly , and hurriedly left with his luggage.
The result... We avoided the group of undead from afar and went around to the other side of the scenic lake, and saw a large number of undead (the Phantom Group and the No-Entropy Group) fighting fiercely on the Fourth Street.
Simpson had to continue running around to Third Street, but was blocked by the Study Addicted Group again.
With no other options left, he had to take the risk and knock on the door of a middle-class family, hoping to get away with it - vampire nobles like him all had extremely perfect anthropomorphic disguises, which were difficult to detect even by a black magician in person.
Unexpectedly, although his anthropomorphic disguise could not be seen through by the players' identification skills, the fact that the identification skills could not scan any information was already a sufficient reason for the players to take action...
At this moment when he was besieged by the undead, Simpson's biggest feeling was regret, great regret.
If he hadn't been so rude as to release the blood slave without figuring out the situation, or had run away immediately after discovering that the blood slave had lost contact, he wouldn't have ended up like this.
Simpson Leo's perfect human identity is indeed precious, but what is the use of that perfect identity if he loses his life?
The most ridiculous and frustrating thing is that to deal with vampires, a black magician must at least summon some high-level undead creatures such as the headless horseman, the deadly banshee, and the skeleton dragon. How could a group of undead spirits pin down a dignified vampire noble like him? !
Aren’t the undead just cannon fodder with low intelligence, stupid as pigs, fragile and tiny!
How could Simpson be willing to die at the hands of a group of dirty undead!
"Get out! Dark magician!"
Forced to stop turning into a black mist without any ability to resist, Simpson roared angrily and his whole body quickly turned into a blood bat.
Any creature hit by a blood bat will lose blood and vitality. This trick has been proven to be useless against the undead, but it is useful for humans!
Simpson transformed into a group of blood bats, whistling and sweeping towards the living people present, as well as Operator Mowgli and others who had retreated to the street!
"Get down!" Before Operator Mowgli and the others could react, the voice of the undead sounded in their ears.
Without hesitation, several operators swiftly dropped to the ground.
The two teams of players responsible for protecting the operators placed the prone operators in the middle, and used skills such as Blade Storm, Blade Flurry, Stab, Backstab, etc. with their eyes closed...
The blood bats, which are already very small in size, are invincible in the darkness, but for the undead... there is really no difference whether there is light or not.
Besides, player skills don't need a target and can be used in the air. With so many blood bats rushing over, the sword dance that can attack a whole area is simply a killing weapon. Wherever there are warrior players standing, the gray mist formed by the blood bats being chopped and exploded appears as densely as fireworks...
As for being afraid of bats, that's out of the question - not to mention the monster battlefield, spider nests, poisonous fog swamps, and weekend activity books, any monster pulled out will drop more SAN value than this dark red little bat!
The two teams of players blocked a wave of blood bat bombing. After the main combat players in the yard chased them out, it became even more difficult for the blood bats to pose a threat to Operator Mowgli and others.
Seeing this, Simpson, who had lost a lot of blood bats, hurriedly ordered the blood bats to fly far away, trying to leave the battlefield.
When he was about to do so, a dozen undead who had taken off their "fashion" clothes inside their armor jumped up, grabbing their T-shirts with tightly tied collars and cuffs, and rushed into the pile of blood bats like catching locusts, and quickly put the blood bats the size of two fingers into their clothes.
With the speed of the undead, which is comparable to that of the lizard horses, and their amazing jumping ability (after all, they are light in weight), the blood bats that covered the sky and the sun cleared a small area in a few seconds...
The vampire can ignore the blood bats that were blown up, because some of the energy of the blood bats that were blown up will automatically return to the vampire's body, so the loss will not be too great; but if the blood bats that the vampire's body has transformed into are "captured alive", then the vampire's body cannot be too far away from the "captured alive" part...
Simpson spat out blood from his heart again. He had to transform into a blood bat and force the captured blood bat to escape. He then quickly re-condensed his body and faced the undead spirits rushing towards him with weapons...
In the group of obsessed learners, a player who was good at formulating strategies laughed out loud: "Do you think my method works? When I found out that this monster in the house could transform into a swarm of bats, I thought that if I could control some of the bats, this monster would definitely be unable to escape from the battle!"
"Not bad, not bad, this strategy is very reliable!" Shenmi Xuexi said happily, "Everyone should keep their mouths shut and not leak the method of conquering vampires. Let's take the lead before Huahua and the others figure out the strategy!"
"Definitely not, definitely not!" The players in the group expressed their opinions one after another.
The player who was making the strategy said, "Study girl, have you noticed that when this monster turns into a humanoid monster, its defense is very high and its health drops very slowly. When it turns into a bat, its health drops very quickly. The last wave directly cleared a small section of its health bar."
"Yeah, then we have to let this monster enter the bat transformation stage?" Shenxixue said.
"It should be easier for this monster to transform into a bat if there is a living NPC nearby. Let's give it a try?" said the strategy party player.
"Okay!" Shen Xixue calmly accepted the suggestion and waved to the two teams of players who were protecting the NPC operators, "Bring the NPCs over here little by little!"
"Okay!" The player in charge of protection immediately interacted with the NPC, "Operator Mowgli, let's go over there."
Operator Mogli and his colleagues: "..."
Being asked to be bait is of course unpleasant, but the attitude of these undead is too upright. They even openly discussed using them as bait to deal with vampires in front of them... This really makes the operators feel annoyed, but it is difficult to refuse.
Simpson didn't understand the "language of the dead" and didn't know that these undead were so brazen as to discuss tactics in front of him. When he saw the humans protected by the undead approaching him, he thought that these undead were being too arrogant, so he immediately transformed into a blood bat and swooped over...
"OK!"
“Great!”
The players who were tired of chopping the vampire's iron body were so happy to see that the strategy really worked.
Ms. Will sat slumped on the stairs, staring in amazement at the scene of the undead "hunting" vampires on the street.
The strange guest knocking on the door late at night turned out to be a vampire, which was much more exciting than the "Moses Port Killer"... Anyway, when Ms. Will saw the guest who broke out of the study window and turned into a blood bat and black mist with a hideous face, she was completely scared.
The hostess, Mrs. Gerry, who was startled by the noise downstairs and came down to see what was going on, and the maid Claire, who came down with Mrs. Gerry, were now kneeling stiffly on the steps, holding on to the door frame tightly with both hands.
When a "distinguished" guest comes to visit, Mrs. Gerry will use her social instincts, go back to her room to dress up and prepare to leave a good impression on the guest; the shocking fact that the guest is a vampire causes Mrs. Gerry no less stimulation than Ms. Will.
The three women were in a daze for a long time, until the undead began to use bait tactics, then they suddenly remembered Mr. Gerry who was injured in the study, and hurriedly crawled back into the house.
Mr. Gerry's injuries were not serious. Compared with the physical wounds caused by the undead who accidentally cut the vampires , the mental blow to Mr. Gerry was greater.
Not everyone can bear the experience of being a hostage, especially since he was a hostage who did not play any role at all and was chopped up by the rescuer along with the criminal...
After letting his wife and the housekeeper bandage his wound and taking a small amount of alchemical potion from the family collection, Mr. Gerry struggled to stand up and motioned for Claire to help him. He gritted his teeth and said, "Is that bastard still outside? Help me out to take a look."
Claire glanced at her hostess, and seeing that Mrs. Gerry did not object, she stepped forward and held Mr. Gerry's right arm.
With the help of the maid, he limped to the door. Mr. Gerry, who could only hear the noise before, could see clearly the "guest" in the street outside, who was being attacked by the undead and was in a miserable state under the light of the street lamps and the lights of the neighbors who turned on the lights to watch the fun.
At the other end of the street, another group of undead were happily running in this direction, drawing weapons as they ran.
Mr. Gerry's face, which was slightly distorted by pain and shock, showed a hint of satisfaction: "What guest of Viscount Darcy's house? Dirty and shameful vampire! Die!"
