Chapter 953 Vertex VS Vertex
"This is... dead?" Xia Shou asked doubtfully, staring at the giant beast that had crashed to the ground.

In that instant, what he saw through the [text description] was the shape of a colossal beast formed by a pile of adjectives representing a collection of desires.

[Sew up the skin and blood vessels], [I want to insert ** into **], [Murder], [Drink blood], [Keep your promise]... A large number of similar thoughts and contradictory statements were piled up crookedly, with depth between the words, and finally pieced together the outline of a huge three-dimensional textual behemoth before Xia Shou's eyes.

Immediately afterwards, he saw several elongated "Separate" characters appear in Sprite's direction. These two characters, shaped like sword energy, rushed straight into the body of the giant beast, wandering between the gaps in the text, cutting some complete sentences into pieces, and separating the originally closely adjacent words.

Immediately afterwards, tiny black dots, like ants, appeared in the gaps where the two characters passed. The black dots continued to grow and eventually became the character "死" (death). This "死" continued to increase in value and spread, squeezing outwards from the path of the slash. Death spread like germs filling a wound.

As a result, the characters that originally constituted the behemoth began to deform, slowly turning into another line of text, which became "corpse" and "a dying body".

At this moment, what Xia Shou saw was a massive corpse cut into eight large pieces. If he continued to examine it closely with his mind, he could see a more detailed description—"It was a corpse with an irregularly curved cross-section, cut into eight large pieces..."

He was actually certain that the monster was dead, but the description was based on his understanding, which is why he asked that question.

"He must have been killed," Shangguan Yan said thoughtfully.

To be honest, she didn't understand this move, but she could vaguely guess what technique Sprite had used; the chanting just now must have been some kind of ritual.

The other party most likely used the ritual and their own understanding of "wounds" to temporarily achieve an effect similar to the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception.

It must be said that it is an extremely powerful offensive move, very close to a forbidden killing technique. If Sprite had mastered the forbidden technique of "Death Perception", she could have skipped the ritual incantation steps, and the destructive power of that move would have reached a new level.

But clearly, Sprite wasn't proficient in so many profound forbidden knowledge.

Xia Shou remained silent, staring at the massive corpse on the ground, lost in thought.

He slowly began to understand some things. Xiao Gao didn't understand why all the vampires were asked to fill in the lines, but in the future that Ke Hen saw, it was a very crucial step.

In Xiao Gao's game, he cannot observe himself, so having the vampires fill in the lines is not a very profitable thing to do in the game.

But in the future ten years later that Kehen saw, he was real, and the appearance of this abnormal being caused by the mass extinction of the vampires gave him an opportunity, an opportunity to devour.

The difference lies here: the evolved shadow can eat the corpse first and then slowly digest it, instead of standing still.

In this case……

How should we fight Sprite next?
Should we use the evolved [Blood Demon Satisfaction Mask]?

However, even after the abnormality level exceeds the limit of Scorpion Spine, it should still not be enough to reach Sprite's level, so the mask can only increase the margin of error.

【Reaching the Pinnacle Where No One Is】is almost unusable in this situation. First, the level difference is too great; second, the one-minute duration is too short; third, there is the unbearable cost of the Root Sea; and fourth, there are a large number of onlookers.

According to Thiana's previous statement, there were quite a few people who came to join in the fun. This situation was not suitable for using the ultimate technique unless Spree could be pulled into a separate space for confrontation, but that was obviously wishful thinking.

Since we can't use the "Peak of Perfection" technique, we can only start with Wei Yu's forbidden killing move and the "Blood and Fire Forbidden Sense" technique of the Night and Fire Scepter.

But this crucial threshold of morale collapse must be crossed; otherwise, one is not qualified to compete with the opponent at all… Xia Shou’s mind raced. He reached out, grasped Su Weiyu’s hand, and established the binding contract of the [Three-Person Waltz], then said, “Weiyu, stay away from here. Get to within five thousand meters first.”

"Understood!" Su Weiyu vanished from the spot in a flash.

Xia Shou turned to look at Sprite, who was slowly walking towards the lake, and took a deep breath.

He bent down, leaped, and transformed into a dark bat shadow, flying towards the battlefield.

At the same time, Shangguan Yan jumped straight off the roof of the church.

On the lakeshore, Charles I, Blue Lily, and several other surviving vampire nobles stood frozen in place, trembling.

As the king from the past approached them step by step, an invisible pressure, like dark clouds before a summer thunderstorm, swept over their heads. An indescribable emotion, like the cool air before a downpour, overwhelmed them. This feeling could no longer be simply described as fear.

It wasn't just fear, but also a feeling of insignificance.

The extraordinary pinnacle of a past era appeared before them in human form, which they could not comprehend at all.

The entire battle was not like a clash of positions and wills, but more like a natural disaster such as an earthquake or volcano unilaterally devastating the world. All resistance was filled with powerlessness and meaninglessness.

But the next second, a chirping sound like bats screeching suddenly rang out from above, and the nobles were instantly pulled out of their empty and helpless state, as if waking from a dream, and regaining some of their rationality.

They saw a familiar figure fall from the sky, and beneath the black cloak, the scepter inlaid with irregular red gems was held in the person's hand.

"The Grand Duke..."

A barely audible murmur, like a normal breath, drifted out of Lan Baihe's throat. Her knees went weak, and she lost all strength and knelt on the ground.

This embarrassing scene did not draw ridicule from the other nobles. No one was in the mood to pay attention to it. In fact, some of them felt that Lan Baihe's kneeling at this moment was a symbol of her remaining rationality.

finally come!

Did their courage finally earn them the other party's approval?
"You've finally arrived!" Charles I shouted, surprised even himself. It was as if some suppressed will to survive had suddenly exploded and overflowed.

This shout carried pride and flattery; although fear and despair could be heard, they became insignificant under the cover of two other intense emotions.

It wasn't just Charles; other nobles felt the same way. It was like a pack of stray dogs being chased by a pack of stalkers, who had nowhere to run, suddenly found their master. All their despair vanished, and they found a new source of support.

A dog can't beat a man, but now another man is here!

Now, the king from the past is facing the true pinnacle of this era!
