Levi's face was solemn, and black air surrounded him, eventually condensing into black scales that rang out like a ring of gold and iron.

"Looking at this appearance, he is undoubtedly a second-born vampire."

The aura of the original vampires is much more powerful than this kind of thing.

If it was a native vampire, Levi would run away without saying a word.

Swish.

Levi's black energy transformed into a sharp blade in his palm.

He slashed directly at the vampires that were coming to kill him.

The vampire's sharp claws collided with the black air, making a harsh friction sound of metal collision.

After just one collision, Levi discovered that the power of this vampire was no less than his own.

Moreover, the opponent can fly and is quite fast.

"We must fight quickly and not let this vampire fly away. If there are other vampires of its kind, I will never have peace."

Originally Levi wanted to turn a blind eye, but this ghost thing really didn't give him face.

Boom, black air filled the sky and danced wildly up.

Levi used his palm as a claw, and his big black hand grabbed the vampire's hind leg.

Caught by the huge black hand, the vampire lost his balance and fell directly from the sky.

Levi took advantage of the situation and fell to the ground.

The floor cracked and rocks and dirt flew everywhere.

Frostmourne was unsheathed, fiercely nailing the vampire monster into the ground.

Levi knew that these external injuries were nothing compared to the extraordinary physique of the vampires.

In terms of self-healing ability, even if one possesses an extraordinary physique, one cannot compare to the powerful self-healing ability of the vampires.

Their self-healing ability does not come from themselves, but from the supreme "Blood River Will"!

Even the secondary vampires are far beyond imagination.

Levi did not dare to delay. While the vampire was being nailed into the ground, he had already prepared the Flame Seal.

The third-order Flame Seal, the blue-green flame is like a ghost fire in the dark night.

Sweeping with a sudden roar!

There was a sizzling sound of oil gushing out.

The vampire wailed heartbreakingly.

Echoing in the deserted alley.

"Sure enough, a monster that is weak to fire!" Levi smashed the vampire's head with one punch. He relied on his powerful ninth-level black scales and frost giant armor to withstand the vampire's fierce attack.

These attacks can easily tear through the defense and armor of an ordinary great knight.

The strength of this vampire is stronger than that of an ordinary top knight, because its attributes in all aspects are very strong, equivalent to a weakened version of Levi.

Especially its physique and strength are stronger than Levi.

Fortunately, Levi has the seal.

One surge of magic seals after another.

The vampire's body was burnt, but even so, it did not die. It struggled violently and broke free from Levi's restraints.

It knew that it was no match for the great knight.

Its short-term burst is not weaker than the human knight in front of it.

But the great knight's endurance is too strong.

This is totally not human!

And his defense is too abnormal.

The vampire flapped its bony wings and took off.

There was no way Levi could let it fly away.

If this monster flies away, it would be almost impossible to catch it again.

Vampires are good at hiding and can even change their appearance. As long as they want to hide, Levi can't find them.

Levi grabbed the vampire's wings and was lifted off the ground by it. He immediately stopped hesitating and snapped his fingers.

Accompanied by the emergence of the shadow of the frost giant.

The vampires looked even more horrified.

It roared, "Witch weapon?"

It is obvious that the vampires are familiar with magical weapons.

First-level spell, Sigh of the Frost Giant!

The biting cold wind seemed out of place on this warm winter night in the city of flowers.

The vampire's body began to stiffen, and its body fluids had been frozen, but its physical fitness was extremely strong, and its heart was still beating.

Levi's Frost Sorrow took the opportunity to stab into the vampire's heart.

He exuded black energy, which flowed into his heart.

The surging black energy burst the vampire's heart.

Compared to the brain, the heart is actually the vampire's weakness.

Plus the freezing effect of the Frost Giant's Sigh.

Snowflakes are falling from the sky.

Fell together.

There was also the corpse of the vampire, which fell straight to the ground from a height of a hundred meters.

Levi stepped on the corpse of the vampire and fell to the ground with a bang.

The frozen body of the vampire had lost its powerful defense and became somewhat fragile.

Coupled with the fall from a high altitude, this invulnerable corpse directly smashed into the ground and was shattered into pieces.

But this thing is still not dead until now!

This made Levi understand why the vampires were so troublesome.

"It's a pity that I don't have the inheritance of the Van Helsing family. Otherwise, it would be much easier to deal with the vampires."

Levi could only use the Seal of Flame to keep finishing off the enemies.

In the end, he roasted the body of the vampire until only a dry and charred skeleton remained, which turned into ashes. The vampire was completely dead.

Levi put the body remains into a tin box he had prepared in advance.

In case this vampire corpse is also a spellcasting material, Levi feels that this thing may come in handy in the future.

Looking at the mess on the ground.

Levi cleaned up the more obvious traces of battle.

He piled the dry wood on the ground that was blackened by the Seal of Flame.

Put the vampire's torn clothes and the fat noble's body into the fire and burn them.

The flames burned, and the light was particularly bright at night.

"This should be able to cover up the traces of my Flame Stream Seal."

Levi muttered to himself.

And then left here.

He killed a vampire.

I still feel a little uneasy.

What if there is some inexplicable connection between these vampires?

He won't come to me for revenge, right?

The next morning.

A group of people gathered in the deserted alley.

"There seemed to be ghost cries here last night. Do you think there are evil spirits in the city?"

"It looks like a fierce battle broke out here."

"The ground is cracking. It's so terrifying. I can already imagine how powerful the two warring parties are."

"Hey, could it be the Mind Flayer?"

"It's possible. I heard that the city lord is investigating the matter of the mind flayer. I wonder what the result is?"

People talked and then gradually dispersed.

Next, a month passed in a flash.

Sure enough, there was no trace of the Mind Flayer anymore.

The serial murder case seemed to have finally come to an end.

Levi, inside the castle, also breathed a sigh of relief.

It has been a month, and so far, no vampires have come to seek revenge.

It seems that this vampire may be an exception.

The mastermind behind the serial murders in Tulip Territory and the nearby territories should be that vampire.

Now that it is dead, the surrounding area is at peace.

…

Somewhere in the Emerald Kingdom.

In a remote abandoned castle.

A gloomy place where there is no sunlight all day long.

This place has been uninhabited for a long time and is seldom visited by people.

The castle had been abandoned long ago with the death of its owner.

Not far from the castle, there is a mass grave.

There are tombstones everywhere in this cemetery.

What is written on the tombstone is not a person's name.

But they belong to animals.

The skeletons of various animals, including deer, wild boars, night crows, etc., are piled up under these tombstones.

In a dark corner of the castle, there was a coffin that looked like it had decayed.

The coffin was covered, and there were some hexagram patterns carved in blood around it, which looked mysterious and strange.

Behind the coffin, there is a suit of armor.

This is a dark red armor that exudes an ancient atmosphere. The armor looks rusty, which is inevitable after staying in a dark and damp place for a long time.

Next to the armor, there is a giant sickle that is one and a half meters long. It is like a blood-red crescent moon, emitting a faint black light. The sickle looks like it is made of mithril, and there are some rune patterns engraved on it. There are some very small letters on the handle of the sickle.

“Brad.”

The coffin suddenly opened.

A shriveled corpse inside suddenly sat up.

A rat appeared next to the coffin.

The mouse was held by the corpse and soon turned into a dried corpse.

It was as if he had drunk life-saving holy water.

The shrunken corpse spoke hoarsely: "How long have I been sleeping?"

He came outside the castle and looked at the forest of blood-bread trees on the hill behind the castle.

This is the sapling he planted before he fell asleep.

Blood bread tree, a rare tree.

This tree can emit a unique fragrance.

It attracts all kinds of wild animals in the forest to come under the tree and eat the fallen leaves of the blood bread tree.

But the fallen leaves of the blood bread tree are highly poisonous.

After eating these wild animals, they will die instantly.

Their blood will be absorbed by the powerful roots of the blood bread tree and then stored in the trunk.

He exerted force with his palm and gently inserted it into the hard trunk of the blood bread tree.

Blood oozed out from the wound like resin, turning into a river of blood that swirled in the air and finally flowed into his mouth.

With the continuous infusion of blood, his shriveled body began to become fuller, and eventually he turned into a two-meter-tall, slender and handsome man.

His voice was no longer hoarse, and he seemed to have regained his youth.

"Judging from the growth of these blood bread trees, I should have been asleep for two hundred years. The last time I walked the earth, I was still as the Blood Knight Brad. Unfortunately, that identity has been remembered by the church, so it is not convenient to use it."

"If it weren't for the death of a junior, I might still be sleeping. It seems that these juniors have started to become restless during the time I was sleeping. They really don't learn their lessons."

"To be able to kill a third-generation Secondary Vampire, one must be at least a top-level Great Knight, and should be close to being a Legendary Knight. I wonder if any new legends have been born in this world for such a long time."

The handsome man changed his appearance and turned into a slightly older man.

"I'd better change my identity this time."

"The identity of a legendary knight is too dazzling."

"From now on, I will be Knight Anderson."

The vampire who calls himself Knight Anderson returns to the castle.

When he reappeared, he was wearing a suit of rusty dark red armor and carrying a sickle wrapped in cloth on his back.

He is the "elder" of the vampire clan mentioned by the vampire killed by Levi. Although he is not a native vampire, in the eyes of many vampires, his prestige is no less than that of native vampires.

After all, he is the first generation of the Secondary Vampire Clan, the most powerful of the Secondary Vampire Clan.

In addition, he also has an identity.

Legendary knight, Blood Knight Brad.

Two hundred years ago, he walked the world as the Blood Knight Brad. After he became a vampire, he always held himself to the honor and morality of a knight, doing justice and eradicating evil.

He is one of the very few pacifist vampires. Since his debut, he has never drunk human blood and has been practicing with the blood of wild animals.

Eventually, he became a legendary knight step by step.

It’s a pity that his identity as the legendary knight Brad is becoming more and more famous and his prestige is getting higher and higher.

It seriously threatens the church's faith.

Therefore, he was remembered by the church.

The Pope of that generation used his "background" to encircle and suppress the Blood Knights.

In the end, the Blood Knight could only fake his death to escape, hide in the castle, sleep for a long time, and slowly recover from his injuries.

Only now has he regained his full strength.

The death of a younger generation just happened to be the trigger that awakened him.

Anderson has lived for so long, so he naturally knew that the vampire had most likely not kept his teachings in mind and had sucked human blood, and was discovered by a powerful human.

I just don't know if she was killed by the church or some other powerful human.

"The Blood River Will is also constantly infiltrating this world as the Demonic Tide revives. Alas, this is not a good thing."

Anderson knew that vampires like himself were outliers.

Most vampires, especially native vampires, do not have human moral concepts or ideas of good and evil.

They take sucking human blood for granted, just like humans eating beef, and they don't feel any guilt.

Because this is their law of survival. In their hometown, there are also humans. The humans there are pigs, which are blood-eaters raised by the vampires.

It's just like the way humans in this world raise livestock.

"No matter what, I will try my best to prevent the worst from happening." Anderson murmured to himself.

His figure disappeared into the woods. He was going to the place where the young man died and to pay a visit to the strong man who could kill the vampires.

If they were from the church, he wouldn't mind teaching the church a lesson.

Even a good guy like him would get angry if his kindness was taken as an insult.

Now that the will of the Blood River has permeated, his power will be stronger than ever. He feels that it is time to make the church pay the price for its immoral behavior two hundred years ago.

…

Levi naturally didn't know that he had been targeted by a first-generation second-born vampire, a legendary knight.

He is still waiting for the fire paper to burn.

"Damn it, it's not burning yet. I'll wait until all the flowers are withered." Levi stayed at home, practicing meditation and breathing techniques, waiting for the wizard to come and pick him up.

The proficiency of meditation increased at a snail's pace day by day, rain or shine, a little bit at a time, leaving Levi helpless.

The breathing method is still different every day, and it is making rapid breakthroughs.

The year 1015 of the Holy Hui Calendar, the month of the wheat field.

The crops in Tulip Territory have a good harvest, and there is joy in the territory.

During this period, Levi's army also expanded.

After all, to defend such a large territory, the original Blackwater Valley’s troops are definitely not enough.

While Levi was practicing during this period, he was also looking for his successor.

This successor must be loyal to himself, and when he leaves the territory and goes to the wizarding world, the successor must continue to manage the territory for him and keep all the wealth in his hands, so that when he returns from the wizarding world, he can bring the wealth with him.

As far as Levi knows, there are also gathering places for mortals in the wizarding world, and in these gathering places, gold coins are still the common currency.

When you become a wizard apprentice, you can still use gold coins to buy some basic living supplies or materials.

Although some wizards of the alchemical school have mastered the true "alchemy" and can create substances such as gold.

However, such alchemy is extremely costly. The cost of artificial gold is several times that of natural gold, and it is not universal at all.

Therefore, in the wizarding world, gold is still the currency used by some wizard apprentices or other mortals to trade ordinary goods, and it is still very valuable.

This is also the reason why Levi finally decided to take back Tulip Territory and Storm Territory.

He needs to support a force in the human world that can provide him with cultivation resources in the wizarding world.

In fact, many wizards do this.

Maybe he is behind some big chamber of commerce or powerful forces.

There is the shadow of a wizard.

Therefore, Levi cannot give up this territory, as part of his wealth, family and legal land.

It’s a pity that he is still young.

It seems like it's too late to get married and have a baby to inherit his territory.

Levi didn't have such an idea, so he still had to find a reliable human agent.

This agent must be absolutely loyal to him, and preferably have the strength of a great knight, so as to intimidate those fierce and ferocious creatures.

"I'm worried."

Levi was worried.

He currently thinks of two methods.

One is to use the living dead controlled by the Seal of Hell to replace himself and guard the territory.

The advantage is that he is absolutely loyal and has enough strength.

The downside is that this thing has too low intelligence and is simply incapable of handling complex lord matters. Moreover, after entering the wizarding world, this living dead will most likely not be usable in the human world.

The second is to use the Kiss of the Human-Faced Spider to control a great knight for your own use. The advantage is that he is a living person with no intelligence problems.

The downside is that such a great knight comes under threat of death and may not be loyal enough, and one must provide the great knight with the antidote every year in order to maintain this relationship.

"It would be great if there was a spell that could control real living people. There must be such a spell, but I haven't mastered it yet, and neither has the damn Tutankhamun." Levi sighed.

If there was that kind of enslavement spell, he could enslave the great knight for his own use and manage the territory on his behalf.

"Forget it, let's take it one step at a time. Anyway, there is still time. During this time, you can pay attention to things in this area."

Levi walked out of the castle. After practicing breathing techniques for a while, his strength had improved a bit.

The Blood Beast Breathing Technique broke through the eighth level, creating the second special effect of "Extraordinary Speed".

It’s just that Levi already has this special effect, and the bonus of duplicate special effects is very small.

The blood beast has to break through the ninth level before his speed can be increased to a higher level.

Levi came out of seclusion this time mainly to visit the Green Worm Territory.

He still hadn't given up on the Scorpion Knight's method of controlling the poisonous scorpions.

He decided to find this method before he left this world and entered the wizarding world.

This way you can have one more trump card.
