Assault and Support

“Huff…”

At this moment, cold sweat continuously seeped from Serea’s body.

“As expected, power isn’t so easily gained.”

As she spoke, Serea opened her information panel.

Description: Queen of the Vampire Race!

After using Blood Frenzy, Serea’s level was temporarily raised to level 20, and all her stats had soared to monstrous heights. At the same time, she also mastered various upper vampire skills.

However, gaining such tremendous power definitely had a price.

She took out a mental strength potion from her bag (a guaranteed drop from the last ten-pull) and downed it in one gulp.

Gulp, gulp, gulp!

After finishing the potion, Serea wiped her mouth. She could feel her mind become a little clearer, and the strain was at least not as severe as just now.

Taking advantage of this moment, Serea sent the gargoyle charging forward. As a beast unit, the guardian gargoyle also possessed aerial control capabilities.

Whoosh!

With a flap of its wings, a gust of wind sent Clark soaring into the sky.

“Experience firsthand the power of the Vampire War Spear!”

Clark flew into the sky, raising his war spear high. At the same time, he locked onto the gathered group below.

The archers seemed to understand what this giant beast intended to do, and began to shout frantically.

“Scatter, now!!!”

But their cries came too late. Clark’s massive body plummeted down from more than ten meters high.

Assault Support (Tier 3)!

During the descent, Clark’s eyes revealed a white circle marking the impact point, which would cover the tightly clustered archers and warriors.

So here’s the question: what happens when a war beast, designed to counter infantry, lands in the midst of an infantry formation?

The answer was all too obvious…

Boom!

Smoke and dust billowed as Clark’s finishing blow kicked up a huge cloud, enveloping both archers, warriors, and Clark himself. For a moment, everyone outside could not see what was happening inside.

As the dust settled, Clark’s massive form gradually emerged.

Clark was half-crouched, his war spear upright and stem braced against the ground, one fist clenched in a hammering posture against the earth.

At that moment, Clark looked like a stone guardian. Within his guarded range, nothing alive could approach.

With that one blow, the ground within twenty meters had cracked all around—clearly the result of an enormous impact.

On the shattered ground, mangled corpses were rapidly growing cold.

A single strike wiped out the remaining ten-person team—completely annihilated!

“Blood is…the…glory of our clan!”

Clark raised the stone spear. A deep, broken voice emanated from the jewel on his head.

Now, as Serea had expended all the blood power she’d gathered using Blood Spring, the jewel on Clark’s head and the red glow in his eyes began to dim.

“Looking forward…to serving you…again, my… Master…”

Currently, Serea could no longer summon even a trace of blood power for the gargoyle, so Clark ceased to function.

Boom!

With a rumble, the giant stone body of Gargoyle Clark collapsed into rubble—the majestic gargoyle giant was no more.

After the gargoyle’s body crumbled, a gemstone resembling a blood crystal shot out from amidst the stones.

After circling a few times, a blood-red summoning array appeared, and it flew into the array, vanishing from sight.

With the disappearance of the red gemstone, Serea’s burden lightened considerably.

But now, her eyelids kept twitching, as if she might faint at any moment.

“De…deactivate Blood Frenzy.”

Seeing that most of the enemies had been dealt with and unable to hold on any longer, Serea decided to end Blood Frenzy.

System: Do you wish to confirm deactivation of Blood Frenzy? Once deactivated, you will bear the side effects of using vampire powers. It is recommended to deactivate only in a safe place.

“Huh? Are you sure you’re not just trying to trick me into wasting my dark power?”

System: The system only provides the most objective advice.

“Fine, then I’ll wait until I’m safe to deactivate—I can still hold on.”

Saying so, Serea staggered to her feet, and turned to face the last remaining enemy.

Pedory!

“Bastards! Who the hell are you?!”

Pedory roared, watching as his subordinates fell one by one. Ignoring his physical burden, he mustered all his strength and swung his sword.

His sword strike forced Celia back, but failed to injure her. On the contrary, Pedory himself was left unsteady.

The great recoil was one factor; another reason was…

“Ugh.”

Black blood trickled from the corner of his mouth. Pedory clutched his chest, feeling unmistakably that the poison had already spread to his heart.

If he didn’t seek help soon, even as a mid-tier warrior he would meet his end here.

“!!!”

Pedory, hands shaking, raised his sword at Serea. But in that moment, Celia seized his weakness, dashing in again.

A single blow!

Her silver cross sword glimmered with golden light. Striking Pedory’s knight sword at its weakened point, Celia shattered it in a single swing.

Clang!

The broken sword clattered to the ground. Seeing this, Pedory tried to draw his backup dagger, but Celia was faster, kicking him down.

“Ah!”

Pedory cried out in pain, attempted to rise again, but Celia’s blade was already at his throat.

“You’d better not move.”

Celia’s icy voice reached Pedory’s ears, and hearing it, he could only give up resisting.

Seeing Pedory surrender, Celia turned to ask Serea,

“What should we do with him?”

“I’ll handle it.”

Bracing her exhausted body, Serea walked over to Pedory and then issued an order to Dogsius—telling him to prepare for “mind reading.”

Serea looked down at the fallen Pedory and questioned him.

“Warrior of the Empire?”

“No comment!”

“What’s your relationship with Cain?”

“……”

“What are you doing here?”

“……”

Pedory remained silent, but little did he know Serea’s questions each had a purpose: every time she asked, Pedory’s subconscious would conjure the answer, which Dogsius witnessed directly.
