Chapter 50: Washing in the Heavy Rain The rain is getting heavier, and the shadows of the trees are swaying...
The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the shadows of the trees were swaying.
Fortunately, the people in the family quarters were persuaded and had no intention of rushing out to fight the vampires to the death, otherwise it would be a big trouble now.
The partner thought about it, then asked, "Are there any vampires in the family quarters?"
The repairman walked up the stairs: "No."
Not yet. There are vampires trying to get close to the family area, but the guards are not pushovers, and some colleagues have already arrived.
She could feel that the other person was on the roof.
Waiting for each other's arrival tacitly.
The partner pulled a handful of small iron balls from his backpack and said, "If the building collapses later, it won't be my fault."
Who made the count insist on standing on the roof? The building will collapse if the fighting continues.
He also reminded me: "Remember to catch me, otherwise you will have to change your partner."
The repairman can expand his territory and support it with water, but he is not a high hunter, and it is far from the time for him to have his own territory.
If the repairman couldn't catch him, he could still choose a more elegant posture in mid-air and then rush into the arms of death.
But he wouldn't necessarily die from falling from a building; he could also die at the hands of the Count.
This was too discouraging, so the partner didn't say it.
Who would say such things when the time comes?
The repairman responded.
Even if I have to die, I have to die meaningfully. I have to drag a count to be buried with me.
Rooftop.
Of course, Heloise was not standing here alone, she left the viscount behind.
Let this viscount contribute a little insignificant value.
Being able to die for a high-ranking vampire is a supreme honor.
The Count leaned lazily against the railing.
She didn't know when the Duke and the Marquis would arrive, and she didn't want to really confront Gao Lie.
Heloise raised her chin and said, "Go and stop those two hunters."
Of course she knew the Viscount couldn't do it, but what did it matter?
The Viscount looked embarrassed, but the Earl was the commander-in-chief of this operation and he could not refuse any of the Earl's orders.
Even if it means letting him die.
Before the two men came up, a small round iron ball came up first, rolling towards them.
This time, the Viscount finally felt the supernatural fluctuations on the iron ball.
He jumped away from where he was.
“Bang!”
The iron ball completed its mission quickly, giving people almost no time to react.
Its explosion brought up dust and loud noise, covering up the arrival of one iron ball after another.
The top floor was reduced to ruins in an instant.
The Viscount, who failed to use his supernatural powers in time, disappeared into thin air.
The Count sighed.
Trash, I really can't rely on you.
The sudden downpour around the building suddenly died down, replaced by a gentle mist.
The fog enveloped the building.
There was nothing flammable on the roof except the vampire, otherwise the explosion would have brought fire, further restricting the vampire's movements.
The shadow grew rapidly in the fog, starting from the earl's feet and covering the entire building like the fog.
Shadows dispel rain and fog, and rain and fog erode shadows.
It is difficult to produce results in confrontations between powers of the same level unless the attributes have inherent restraint.
But that’s okay, the repairman doesn’t expect to completely defeat the Count.
His partner pulled out a pistol. At such a close distance, he couldn't continue using his special powers, otherwise the repairman would be left with nowhere to stand.
He provided cover for the repairman with his bullets.
Special bullets will bring a burning effect, but they are useless when hitting the supernatural barrier.
But this was the opportunity the repairman needed.
This is an opportunity for the opponent to use some of his supernatural powers to block the bullets.
The sword was unsheathed from the umbrella.
A blue halo quickly began to flow upwards from the palm of her hand, and the umbrella sword hummed.
The flowing water is like a blade, slashing at the shadows that are everywhere!
Heloise's face instantly turned ugly. Under such an attack, the Earl could no longer lean on the railing leisurely.
She knew it! These high hunters are all crazy!
Breaking into the vampire's supernatural realm and using supernatural powers to launch the most direct means of attack is, in theory, the most effective method.
But this also has a huge flaw. The supernatural properties of humans and vampires are different. In addition to the properties of the supernatural powers themselves, vampires can devour the supernatural powers of the losers.
For vampires, superpowers are just like that. If you lose, you will be suppressed and disassembled and devoured by the other party.
This is also the reason why vampires often advance their superpowers very quickly.
The Gao Lie in front of him was just like countless Gao Lies before him.
Don't think about the possibility of losing, don't think about the consequences of losing, and put your life in the hands of the weapon.
Although the Earl knew what these high-ranking hunters were thinking, he couldn't help but doubt it sometimes.
...Do they really realize that if one attack fails, there will be no recovery?
As important as the high efficiency of this attack method is its ridiculously low fault tolerance rate.
Most of Heloise's defeated opponents in the past would only do this when they were on the verge of death and began to struggle.
The Count soon had no time to think about anything other than the battle, as the water was rushing towards her.
The aqua-blue figure approached quickly, and every time the umbrella sword slashed, a shadow would dissipate.
Simply using shadows for defense is absolutely not feasible, but Heloise has no intention of competing with Gao Lie in melee combat - God knows she doesn't have that kind of thing!
Then we can only——
A corner of the shadow quickly stretched out and wandered across the rooftop, like an unknown hunter in the deep sea.
Pounce forcefully on the prey of your choice.
But the partner was prepared, and a string of iron balls rolled towards the shadow.
explode.
Continuous explosions.
Not only did Heloise fail to capture the hunter as a hostage, but she also put herself in a dilemma.
The shadow shrank back in grievance.
Heloise was forced to retreat all the way and finally stood on the railing.
She lowered her head and glanced downstairs...if there was no other way, she would just slip away.
It's all the fault of that bunch of losers. If they had just caused some trouble to the hunters below and taken some family members as hostages, why would she have had to face two hunters alone and be in such an embarrassing situation?
The Count was too lazy to think about it, or rather, he was unwilling to think about whether if they took the family members as hostages, it would deter the hunters, or whether the hunters would become more motivated and vow to kill the vampires.
Heloise had nowhere to retreat.
The water flows continuously, cutting off the minions of the shadow one by one. Blue and black are intertwined, but the blade made of water is extremely sharp.
—Are Marta and Rhett going to wait until everyone on this mission is dead before coming?!
The Earl, extremely angry, began to shift the blame to the Duke.
The space slowly twisted.
A new wave of supernatural power arrives, revealing the identity of the newcomer.
The Earl instantly forgot how he had just scolded and cursed the high-ranking vampires in his heart, and looked towards the place where the space was distorted with a happy expression.
This fluctuation of supernatural power is definitely from Marquis Wright!
The repairman did not stop attacking. She seemed to be unaware of the arrival of the Vampire Marquis and continued forward without fear.
Rhett walked out of the space distortion.
His face was almost covered by the shadow, so he cut the space to break the shadow.
The black claws turned into countless streams of light and dissipated between heaven and earth.
Heloise asked anxiously and angrily: "What are you doing!?"
But she soon realized that she shouldn't question a high-ranking vampire like this - Rhett had just been promoted from earl to marquis some time ago, and she hadn't adapted yet.
Rhett seemed not to notice that there was a bat forced onto the railing. He looked at the repairman with a smile.
"He's not here?"
Heloise stood on the railing, feeling chilled.
Instead of helping her, the Marquis used his supernatural powers to cut off all her shadows!
"You betrayed us." She suddenly realized.
The shadow completely dissipated, and the repairman no longer needed to attack. She lowered the umbrella sword in her hand.
"Ah, Ad. He was at the association's headquarters before, and he should be in the family quarters now."
Rhett said with some regret: "Well, it seems that we can't meet today."
Neither the association's headquarters nor the family quarters are places where a vampire can set foot.
Then he seemed to finally remember that there was a vampire standing next to him. He looked at Heloise and said, "I almost forgot about you."
Although Heloise didn't know why Rhett suddenly betrayed her, she still tried to delay time.
"If you kill me now, how will you deal with the Duke when he arrives? The operation has completely failed. If you keep me, I will take the blame for you!"
She spoke quickly and anxiously, fearing that this madman would attack her directly.
The distorted space is at hand.
Rhett smiled and said, "You're right. Someone really needs to take the blame."
Heloise felt a little hope of survival.
The Marquis said, "How can I let you go for such a small matter?"
He said it lightly, as if he didn't care.
Heloise had already felt the approach of the supernatural power fluctuations, and the space around her began to squeeze.
"No, no."
She racked her brains to find a new reason to survive: "—I can join you!"
The fluctuation of supernatural power paused for a moment.
Heloise thought she had succeeded and quickly repeated: "I can join you! From now on, I will work for you and overthrow the rule of vampires——"
The Marquis stared at her and smiled slowly.
There was an indescribable meaning in that smile, like contempt and mockery.
Many people who have interacted with Rhett know that he loves to laugh, but he never laughs when he is killing people.
Heloise had a feeling that she had said something wrong, but she didn't know what.
Maybe it was because Rhett looked down on traitors—obviously he himself was the traitor—but what was so strange about turning against one's own side in the face of adversity? She just wanted to survive!
Rhett knew exactly what she was thinking: "You really don't remember either."
He was originally a human, but now he has become a ghost, but the ghost thinks he has always been like this.
Blood-red eyes, sharp fangs, pale and indifferent.
The next second, a bat flew from a distance and landed.
The Duke's familiar robe dragged on the ground, but it was not wet at all by the rain and fog.
Heloise looked pleading.
But Rhett had already acted without hesitation.
The space twisted and turned, and under the cover of rain and fog, the vampire's blood poured out of the body, mixed with unknown internal organs and was washed away in the heavy rain.
In the last moments of the Count's life, she looked at Duke Marta from afar.
The Duke turned a blind eye to Rhett's betrayal. She simply asked, "Have all the vampires here been cleared out?"
Heloise finally thought vaguely.
Those high-ranking vampires in the council are all idiots... These two are clearly traitors, and no one can see it.
No, that's not right.
Inspiration finally came to her at the end of her life.
She finally remembered.
Rhett was transformed into a vampire.
And Marta, she used to be a hunter.
