Civilization Guardian Front

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

The vampire in most people's minds is a humanoid monster with a soft spot for human blood, but it is not actually the case...

It should be said that the only vampire in the world who fits this trait is the Dracula blood.

The original vampire was just a creature with low intelligence and power is not strong, but they can evolve by sucking blood and absorbing genes from other animals.

This kind of evolution is very difficult to control. The consequence of indiscriminate blood-sucking is to become an ugly monster. Although it gains powerful power, it is regarded as a demon by humans and besieged and hunted down.Especially during the hundreds of years of the Vatican's pursuit of heresy and witch hunting, the vampire race was almost wiped out.

However, one of the vampires survived tenaciously.

It loves human blood more than others of its kind, and has gained wisdom from human blood.

A wealth more precious than great power...

It learned to disguise itself as a human being to avoid being hunted by the Holy See, and secretly made plans for its own blood-sucking, making evolution controllable and growing up step by step.

When the Holy See discovered that Vlad III, Grand Duke of Wallachia, was actually a vampire, it had already grown extremely powerful, overcame the racial trait of being afraid of the sun, and even evolved four The devil's organs that can quickly recover from injuries and repair each other can almost be said to have truly immortal bodies.

Although Vlad is not weak, it does not mean that the Holy See is helpless against it.It may seem difficult to defeat the four devils at the same time, but the Holy See must have pious religious knights serving it, coupled with the demon hunting equipment made by the Inquisition and the spells of the choir, there is only a dead end to confront the Holy See head-on.

But at least, it has the capital to survive, and it is no longer an easy target to hunt...

Vlad, who has the four evil organs by his side, may think that he can live a happy life sucking human blood every day from now on. Even if he is unfortunately discovered, he will be able to escape before the Vatican reacts, and even kill a few people in the process Let off steam.

Unfortunately, life is not as easy as imagined...

In order to restrain the recovery effect of the devil's organs, the Holy See has made every effort to develop spells, including the No. [-] holy water used by the Holy Blood Knights, which are all derivative products that appeared during this process.

In the end, their hard work paid off...

There are too few people who can learn the powerful spell that destroys four devil's organs at once, and it cannot be used universally. In addition, Vlad always cunningly avoids the Holy See, unless the other party takes the initiative to show up in St. Peter's Square. The technique is useless at all.

Since it is too difficult to destroy all the viscera, let's change the way of thinking and suppress the recovery effect of the viscera instead.

"Blessed Blade" is the spell developed under such circumstances.

Turn the magic power into silk thread and wrap it around the sword. Every time the enemy is successfully wounded, the silk thread will pour in from the wound, evenly disperse and search for internal organs, and then wrap around it, absorbing its vitality, and gradually paralyzing the organ function. Effect.

The more times he was hit by the sword blade, the more silk threads in his body became, and it became more and more tightly entangled like a boa constrictor strangling.

This kind of spell has no meaning to ordinary people. After all, as long as a normal person injures the right place, one move is enough to kill a person.

But for a monster with strong resilience like a vampire, it is a real threat.

Although the spell is delicate, it does not require a huge amount of magic power to use it, and the lack of one person can be made up with the number...

It's hard to find a better technique for the Knights' crusade against powerful heretics.

Although, if there is no new silk thread to replenish, the silk thread that has exhausted its magic power will disappear by itself, as long as you escape before death, you can return to normal after a period of rest.

It's just that the Holy See won't talk about fairness and justice with the heretics, but directly sends a large number of knights to cut off the opponent's escape route by means of encirclement.

That's exactly what Vlad is doing right now...

It has clearly felt the weakening of its resilience.

Originally, it could heal the body's evil organs within 1 second, but now it takes 2.5 seconds.Even though the recovery speed is still astonishingly fast, it means that its flaws are constantly expanding.

(If it goes on like this...)

Vlad glanced at the blood knights around him, feeling extremely anxious.

What these Holy See elites are currently doing is to contain it, forcing themselves to fight with three knight commanders holding light blades.

But Vlad was sure that once its recovery power dropped to a certain limit, the remaining 27 knights would definitely make a decisive move, pouring all the powerful weapon skills in their hands on it at once.

At that time, Vlad, who was seriously injured and whose visceral function was greatly weakened, could only let the Holy See knights slaughter him without any power to fight back...

Count Dracula, who has acquired human wisdom and lived for a long time, is not stupid. The moment he noticed the mutation in his body, he saw the tactical plan of the Holy See knights, but he was helpless.

It wants to escape...

During the 15-minute battle, Vlad tried to break through the blockade of the Knights after forcing the Knight Commander back more than once.

The Holy Blood Knights form a group of three, and if they want to break through them, they must first repel two strikers holding pistols and daggers.Then came the bursting shotguns of the rear team members.

The impact of the shotgun is still within the acceptable range for Vlad in vampire form.

That was for ordinary ammunition. The group of Holy See knights in front of Vlad used silver bullets.

The unavoidable shotguns can easily hit its entrails, so Vlad is far more cautious when dealing with shotguns than when he is attacked by other firearms.

Barely surviving the attack of the shotgun, a glass ball will shatter underfoot.

hateful...

How much did the Holy See spend to encircle and suppress it?

The silver sword, pistol, and shotgun that have been protected by rituals are all legalized silver bullets that can restrain vampires, and the No. [-] holy water that can forcibly paralyze Vlad for a second...

These must be extremely expensive equipment, and the knights can use them one after another, as if they don't need money.

Knowing the effectiveness of the No. [-] holy water, Vlad looked at the glass balls covered with tactical belts on the Holy See knights, and couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine...

and despair...

In such a desperate situation, even Vlad himself knew that the chance of surviving was slim.

It cannot be said that there is no hope, because among the many abilities it has evolved, there is still the last hole card that has not yet been revealed.

"Third Form of Vampire"

The first type is a disguised human body, the second type is the appearance of a vampire, and the third type...

It is indeed unparalleled to be able to obtain unlimited power in a short period of time, and it can even escape safely from the Holy See Knights.

The only downside is that it requires corresponding weather conditions...

Thinking of this, Vlad inadvertently glanced at the night sky.

It was astonishing to find...

The dark sky where the clouds and mists were originally thin and where the stars, silver and moon could be clearly seen has been quietly covered by dense dark clouds.

patter patter...

rumble...

The drizzle turned quickly and torrentially, and thunder appeared between the clouds.

"Hahahahaha!" Facing the suddenly changing sky, Vlad laughed wildly:

"It seems that even your God doesn't want me, Vlad, to die!"

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

Count Dracula has lived for a long time. In addition to loving human blood, he will also absorb the blood of some creatures with special abilities to obtain the unique genes of the creatures.Although there is a plan to absorb it, it is difficult to deduce exactly what kind of changes will occur, and it is often just a direction.

It can't even determine by itself, since when did its physique evolve to be able to adapt to the voltage of lightning.

In the past, although a vampire would not die if struck by lightning with its unreasonable recovery power, the electric current passing through the whole body was still enough to severely damage the internal organs and seriously injure it.

Vlad, who discovered this incident by accident, through countless attempts, combined with the powerful functions of the devil's organs, mastered the technique of temporarily storing the huge energy generated by the thunder in the body for a short time, and using it for his own use.

It calls it the "Third Form"

This is why Count Dracula often chooses to fight at high places during thunderstorms, including when he fought with Arsen Robin a hundred years ago, he also fought against the enemy at the Eiffel Tower.

The Holy See of the Vatican and Vlad are old rivals. Although it is a cat-and-mouse relationship, they will not underestimate this ancient vampire who can survive their long-term pursuit and kill.

Vlad's third form is known to the Holy See.

There are no tall buildings in Étretat, and the weather forecast only shows that this week will be completely cloudy, and even the possibility of rain is pitifully low, let alone thunderstorms.

After confirming that the opponent had no room for a comeback, the Holy See began the siege with peace of mind.

However, even Vlad, who was caught off guard by the Holy Blood Knight's attack, couldn't help but feel the moment of despair in his heart after repeatedly breaking through to no avail...

Over Etretat, a large dark cloud actually formed in just 3 minutes.

Showers are pouring, thunder is rumbling...

The white lightning pierced through the darkness of the sky, illuminating the faces of everyone on the street in the rain.

The astonishment of the blood knights, and Vlad's ecstasy...

And the smile of someone hiding in the shadows.

"Hahahahaha! It seems that even your God doesn't want me, Vlad, to die!"

The joy of surviving after the catastrophe, coupled with the shocked appearance of the lackeys of the Holy See, made Vlad feel extremely happy, and laughed loudly at the enemies around him.

"Everyone calm down!" The flag officer of the Knights, who was the first to stabilize his mind, raised his long sword and shouted to his companions:

"Heavenly Father will not intervene in troubles that people can handle on their own. Vlad Tepesh has been cornered by us, and we are only one step away from taking down the great heresy. Does a little wind and rain shake your faith? ?"

"That's right, in the mortal world, the will of the Lord will be carried forward by our swords! No matter how many difficulties and obstacles lie ahead, we will overcome them with our devotion to the Lord and our own courage!"

The two chief inspectors then encouraged the morale of their subordinates and asked loudly:

"Tell me, my brothers and sisters...what is the purpose of our existence?"

After all, they are the most trusted and reused knights by the Holy See. Although they are shocked by the sudden change of weather, it is impossible for them to shake their steel-like faith.

Their answer was without hesitation, without doubt...

""Eliminate the heresy, defend the Holy See! ! ! ""

Seeing this, Vlad, who now had the cards in his hand, snorted disdainfully.

"Oh, faith may give you a little courage..."

slap...

The slightly bent knees exerted a sudden force, and the asphalt road, which could be crushed by cars, was trampled and cracked.

Count Dracula's huge body was like a swift shadow, and he jumped onto the roof of the house behind him in an instant, with his hand on the lightning rod.

"But it can't stop me from bringing you despair!"

boom!

The moment the voice fell, a dazzling white light fell on it together with the thunder that hurt the eardrums.

Facing the dazzling thunder, the fragile naked eyes of human beings closed reflexively.

Fortunately, in just half a second, the strictly trained Holy See knights opened their eyes.

The line of sight naturally focuses on the enemies above the roof, and I see...

Vlad's whole body was wrapped in blue-white electric light. The beast-like hair on his body had already been burned to ashes in the high temperature. His monster-like body shrank rapidly, shrinking from a height of more than three meters to a tall adult figure. The wolf head also changed back to the original human body.

crackling crackling...

The main function of the devil's organs is recovery, and it cannot store such a huge amount of electricity for a long time. This can be seen from the continuous release of electric light from its body surface in its third form.

The high-temperature electricity released burned its body every second, and if it didn't have the recovery power of the devil's organs, it could be burned to charcoal in a few seconds.

Even if it can only last for a short 10 minutes, during this period, Vlad himself is equivalent to the embodiment of lightning.

"The body of the main body seems to be too big a goal for you, why not use the human body to play with you..." The man looked down at the dozens of Holy See knights below, with a playful tone:

"Don't worry, in this state, my strength will not be weakened."

Just 1 minute ago, the encircling formation of the Knights that still made him feel hopeless, now seems to be extremely small.

"Hmph!" A holy blood knight, irritated by Vlad's arrogance at this moment, took a glass ball containing No. [-] holy water from his tactical belt and pointed it at the man on the roof.

"Wait!"

The knight commander stopped him, but he was a step too late.

The glass ball was thrown straight at Vlad's feet.

boom!

The glass shattered, and fluorescent liquid splashed around.

It stands to reason that with the speed of Count Dracula, it is very easy to avoid the liquid in the glass ball without being restrained by the silver bullet.

However, Vlad didn't dodge at all, just stood where he was, letting the holy water that had given him a headache be sprinkled on him.

Nourishing...
