Chapter 64: Gradually Proficient



Not good! Emlyn White followed Argos's gaze and noticed the old newspapers and small wooden box that he had forgotten to deal with.

Although they originally belonged to this room, they were previously placed in different places. It looked quite strange to put them together now, as if someone wanted to do something with them but gave up temporarily.

Why did he give up at this moment? Was he disturbed by the knock on the door? And does this mean that the murderer has not left and is hiding in a corner of the room? Similar questions flashed through the minds of Argos and Emlyn White at the same time, but one was suddenly confused and the other was guessing what the other would think.

not good!

The two vampires reacted at the same time. Argos suddenly leaped to the side, and a thick black gas filled his back, which looked like bat wings. Emlyn White's fingers quickly slid across the spread-out "Lemanno Travel Notes".

Suddenly, silver-white light appeared, illuminating the entire room again.

The lightning from the flamboyant branches failed to strike Argos, but hit the ground next to the bed, breaking into countless tiny electric snakes and leaping towards the surrounding objects with better conductivity.

Here, the wings made of thick black air by Argos seemed to be particularly favored by thunder. They were chased by many silver-white electric snakes, shattered with a sizzle, and spread to the surface of the body.

Argos was suddenly paralyzed for a second, and was unable to bounce back from the ground, falling with a thud.

Emlyn quickly flipped through "Lemanno's Travel Notes" and slid his finger across the page "Lightning Strike" again.

Although he didn't know why there were so many pages of "Lightning Strike", occupying half of the yellow-brown parchment, at this moment, he was extremely grateful that he could still continue to use it.

Silver-white lightning fell from the sky and struck Argos directly. Just as he was about to get rid of the paralysis and jump away, black smoke suddenly emerged from his body and his whole body trembled uncontrollably.

Seizing this opportunity, Emlyn White thrust his knees forward, kicked his feet, and approached Argos at a high speed, almost leaving an afterimage. He then used his right arm to wrap around the opponent's head, moved lightly around, and flashed behind him.

Crack!

Argus saw his back directly.

His eyes suddenly became bloodshot, and several swollen and festering areas on his face completely burst open, and a deep and illusory darkness rushed out from within.

Emlyn didn't understand what had changed. His feet slipped and he instinctively stepped back, changing his position continuously.

Argus did not pursue, and the sanity in his eyes seemed to have been lost, leaving only pure malice, madness, and obvious confusion.

He raised his hands, pressed his head from both sides, and pulled it hard, so that it returned to the correct direction with a crisp click.

And around this artificial vampire, darkness was surging, as if it was going to swallow everything.

Then, Argus moved his shaking neck left and right. His entire body was swollen and rotten, and disgusting pus was oozing out.

He came to see Galis Kevin tonight because he was showing signs of losing control and needed to discuss a solution. He turned back halfway because he suddenly thought that the harsh environment might have had a strong negative impact on him who had an extraordinary sense of smell and sensitive senses, which led to the signs of losing control.

At this moment, shrouded in the shadow of death, he completely collapsed and was truly out of control.

Emlyn White's heart trembled when Argos's gaze swept over him. He felt that he was in trouble again. He couldn't help but secretly curse these followers of the "Original Moon" for always making him look like a monster.

He did not pray to Mr. Fool immediately. First, it was too late as the other party was about to launch an attack. Second, in a one-on-one situation, Emlyn believed that it would not be too dangerous to deal with an out-of-control Sequence 7.

He seized the moment and quickly flipped through "Lemanno's Travel Notes", letting it freeze at "lightning strike" again.

Bang!

Thick, twisted, silver-white lightning with claws bared struck down heavily, hitting the mutated Argos.

At this moment, the lightning seemed to shatter the surging darkness, and seemed to be swallowed up by the deep other party. Both disappeared at the same time, leaving only Argos who finally locked his eyes on Emlyn.

This out-of-control artificial vampire actually left behind an afterimage and pounced on its target.

Emlyn ducked and rolled on the ground, avoiding the fatal blow.

At the same time, his right hand, which was not holding the "Lemanno Travel Notes", reached into his pocket and took out a metal bottle.

Push!

Argos turned quickly and got close to the enemy in an instant.

Snap! Emlyn, who had no time to open the bottle cap, used his five fingers to squeeze the metal bottle and create a crack.

Then he threw the bottle forward, letting the pure and brilliant liquid inside spill onto Argus who was rushing towards him.

This is the "water of the sun" he mixed with spiritual materials, which is very effective in restraining vampires.

This is the preparation made in advance by the "Potions Professor"!

"ah!"

Argos, who was splashed directly, let out a shrill scream on the spot, wisps of black smoke rose from his body, and he lost his strength in mid-air.

Bang! Although he hit Emlyn, he could only make him lose balance and roll twice, but he did not suffer any real damage.

While rolling, Emlyn did not bother to treat his injuries. He shook his right hand, which was in pain from a few drops of "Water of the Sun", and quickly turned the page of "Lemanno's Travel Notes".

Bang!

Another silver-white lightning struck, stopping Argos' scream abruptly.

This out-of-control artificial vampire seemed to be enduring the close exposure to the sun while falling directly into an intense paralysis.

Emlyn seized the opportunity, took out another bottle of "Sun Water", unscrewed the cap, and poured it directly forward.

This time, Argos couldn't even scream, and his body looked like a melted candle.

Emlyn heaved a sigh of relief, and a thick black mist spread behind him, transforming them into palm-sized illusory bats that swarmed towards the target.

The black bats landed on Argos, completely covering it, then separated with a rustling sound, flew back to Emlyn, and disappeared.

Argos' body shrank noticeably and finally couldn't hold on any longer. With signs of semi-fusion, he slowly fell down.

Emlyn then raised his right hand to check for any remaining pain, and saw atrophied and eroded wounds on his palm and several fingers.

However, the flesh and blood inside was wriggling rapidly and healing itself.

It’s over… I actually killed him… Emlyn looked away and looked at Argos’ body, still a little bit unbelieving.

Although this hunt had many twists and turns, he did not encounter any real danger during the whole process. This made him realize once again that the existence of the Tarot Club made him much stronger than he expected.

"If Argos had checked Galis Kevin's body first instead of looking at the newspapers and wooden boxes by the bed, he would have definitely determined that I had the extraordinary ability of 'Lightning Strike' and would not have used 'Dark Wings' to dodge and been affected by the lightning...

"But in this way, he won't be able to detect the abnormality and it will be difficult for him to evade in advance. My 'Lightning Strike' can hit him directly, and things will be much simpler...

"From this perspective, no matter what, as long as I respond correctly, I will definitely be able to kill him... They are so weak... It turns out that I am already so powerful...

“No wonder the founder asked me to join the Tarot Club… This is a gathering prepared to save our respective tribes in anticipation of the end of the world. It is many times more advanced than other secret organizations!” Emlyn raised his chin slightly, and the corners of his mouth curled up uncontrollably.

He then heard footsteps coming and going outside the door, but no one approached.

Argos's screams had alarmed the residents nearby, but they didn't dare come in, fearing trouble... However, someone must have gone to find the police... I had to deal with the scene quickly and leave here... Emlyn withdrew his gaze from the door, walked to Galis Kevin's body, and picked up a fist-sized object from the pool of blood.

It was bright red all over, like a heart, expanding and contracting slightly, its surface was translucent, and liquid was faintly flowing inside. This was the extraordinary characteristic left over from the "Pharmacist" Pathway Sequence 7 "Vampire".

This is my trophy... Emlyn was a little uncomfortable for a moment. He calmed down before wrapping the Beyonder Characteristics and Galis Kevin's head with old newspapers and stuffing them into the wooden box.

After putting the wooden box away, he tore off Argos's head, which was so rotten that it was almost unrecognizable, then took out another bottle of potion and sprinkled it to every corner of the room.

During this process, Emlyn was not panicked at all, and seemed not to be worried at all about the official Beyonders from the East District arriving.

A few minutes later, he picked up Argos's slightly mutated extraordinary characteristics, glanced at the surface that was closer to black and the vaguely visible human face pattern, and a diffuse black gas emerged behind him.

The black gas once again transformed into countless tiny bats, flying around the room, and combined with the magic potion that had been sprayed before, creating a quietly spreading black flame.

The black flames burned away the blood, the corpse, and all the traces of the lightning strike, leaving only a layer of sticky, asphalt-like liquid covering various objects.

Then, the ghosts turned into heavy black bats, circling around Emlyn.

Emlyn did not expect that his handling of the case would completely interfere with other people's investigations. He had only one goal, which was to make the situation at the scene seem like there was no big problem, so that the police and the official Beyonders who might take over would think that the matter was not important and had no value, and they would just investigate it casually and throw it into the file cabinet without paying any more attention to it.

After doing all this, Emlyn, wearing a peaked cap and with a charcoal-ash face, picked up the wooden box and looked around.

Then he bowed slightly and saluted to the Crimson Moon outside.

At the same time, the "Lemanno Travel Notes" in his hand flipped through the pages and stopped at the "Teleportation" page.

Emlyn's figure and the heavy bats immediately became transparent and invisible, disappearing from the spot.

At least a quarter of an hour later, several East District police officers arrived at the apartment, broke down the door, and found neither the occupants nor the body.

They yawned lazily, forced the onlookers to admit that they were hallucinating, and ended the investigation accordingly.

This is the efficiency and case-handling style of the East District police.

…………

After leaving the East District, Emlyn went home first and hid "Lemanno's Travel Notes", and then went straight to Odra's house in the West District with his gains.

He is going to declare victory and collect his reward!
