Thinking about this, Gu Yu felt a strange emotion welling up inside her.

He wasn't afraid of fighting, but if the enemy could keep resurrecting...

He might be able to narrowly defeat King once or twice, but what about after that?

Those forms are not without a price to pay. Even though Gu Yu has gradually become accustomed to the burdens these forms bring, adapting to the burdens does not mean that the burdens do not exist.

Even if he defeats King, can he guarantee that he can defeat him again in perfect condition after King is resurrected?

"It cannot be guaranteed," was Gu Yu's final conclusion.

What if we let our companions go all out?

If Rook and Bishop can fight without regard for the cost, then these two powerful individuals with the strength to destroy a nation, even if they were to face their own Herrscher comrades...

Okay, you might have a chance once or twice, but if you play too much, it will eventually turn into a series of battles between experienced players and a bunch of newbies with max-level accounts.

Damn, how do you play this?

"As expected, I was still too weak... Is this the fate of someone without power?"

With the cards Gu Yu currently holds, it seems there's no way to escape this predicament.

As for pursuing even greater power... let's not even discuss how to unlock those final forms, or what use they are after unlocking.

In the remaining final form, there are no decisive cards, and even if they are unlocked, it will not change Gu Yu's current predicament.

unless……

"Tch, I'd rather not choose that."

Even though that scene came from a dream, Gu Yu still couldn't forget what happened in that scene.

Both enemies and allies launched a campaign against him, who had become the Dark Knight.

Although the power of the Imperial Knight is the power of the destroyer, if Gu Yu really chooses to go down that path, he can't guarantee that he will still be himself.

And Kamen Rider Decade, who has truly transformed into a demon warrior, will surely be able to resolve this predicament.

But once it really comes to that point—the problem that others need to solve isn't the Toothblood, but him.

As if reminding Gu Yu not to forget that power, the holy mark in Gu Yu's hand suddenly emitted a sharp pain.

Even though no enemies were approaching and no other strange things were being sensed, the Holy Mark in Gu Yu's hand suddenly produced a burning sensation.

"Tch, boring."

As if to suppress her inner unease, Gu Yu directly severed the connection between the Honkai energy within her body and the Holy Mark.

Unfortunately, even after the connection was severed, the Holy Mark continued to stimulate Gu Yu's body.

"A mere Holy Mark, yet it seems to have come to life... Is that dark creature truly ready this time?"

The strongest external enemy, the Fangblood, the two backstabbing dogs Otto and Kevin lurking in the shadows, plus 'him' in his own consciousness space.

Indeed, one shouldn't rely too much on luck.

But that doesn't matter. Since the enemy is in front of us, let's just crush them all.

Even if I act timidly, I can't change the current situation.

Ultimately, the only outcome is a fight.

Chapter 628. Kindness is often taken advantage of.

Vampire Base

Just as Gu Yu had predicted, Bishop's body gradually recovered in the basement within the Vampire's basement.

As he slowly opened his eyes, he immediately looked at his two subordinates beside him and transformed back into his human form.

"Lord Bishop, how are you feeling?"

After seeing that Bishop's complexion was fine, Knight and Pawn, both craftsmen, looked at Bishop and asked him cautiously.

"You...do you still remember..."

"Ah, I remember it very clearly. That brat really dared to cause trouble."

After recalling the scene before he was killed, Bishop covered his head with one hand in pain and said through gritted teeth.

"This guy is a madman."

After being transported to this world and discovering that he, King, and Rook had been resurrected from the dead, Bishop began researching the resurrection technology he had previously used.

Although this resurrection technology once brought his king back to life, after the resurrection, the King lost his rationality as a living being.

Bishop was someone who valued his life, and after dying once, he naturally intended to continue improving the technology.

In the past six months, aside from his business with Pioneer, Bishop has been working on this technology.

Through his improvements, he at least transformed this secret technique from one that turned a resurrected monster into one that would be weak for a period of time after resurrection, but still retain its rationality.

"My power has been reduced by about 50%, probably because I'm not strong enough. If it were Rook or Wang, they would have been weakened even less."

"You two record this data, and then continue to act according to the tasks I have given you, understand?"

"Yes!"

After giving instructions to the two men, Bishop immediately found King, who was still trying to control the Tranquility Gem, and explained the situation to him.

"Oh? So, that human brat refuses to cooperate or cease hostilities?"

King didn't feel particularly angry when he heard what Bishop told him.

Since it was already known that Gu Yu was not a good-tempered person, it was within expectations that Bishop did not send back a message.

"In addition, according to Knight and Pawn's calculations, the plan will take about fifteen more days to complete."

At this point, Bishop hesitated for a second before deciding to honestly voice his inner hesitation.

Honest advice may be hard to swallow, but it's always better to remind his great king than to watch his king fall from grace.

"Your Majesty, Gu Yu's strength has reached the point where he can easily kill me. If you want to resist this brat, I urge you to master the Tranquility Gem within these fifteen days."

"Although we now have the technology to resurrect, if you are defeated, your power will definitely be weakened, and then..."

"You mean I'm no match for him?"

Even though Bishop was prepared before saying those words, he still felt a chilling killing intent lock onto him at that moment.

"Bishop, are you questioning my abilities?"

If King apologizes directly here, he certainly won't hold Bishop accountable for his slip of the tongue.

But Bishop felt that since he had chosen to serve the king before him, he could not back down at this time.

“...That’s right. Your Majesty, when that man fought me, I could sense that he wasn’t using his full strength.”

"Even without going all out, he possessed the power to easily defeat me. And if he were to go all out, I can't even imagine what would happen!"

"Therefore, I urge you to take control of the Tranquility Gem in the coming days! This is for your own good!"

Seeing his subordinate utter these words with a death wish, King suppressed his murderous intent and gently patted Bishop on the shoulder.

“That’s right, I can tell you’re thinking of me. Okay, I’ll handle this well. You continue to follow up on the other plans.”

Then, King's figure transformed into a swarm of bats and disappeared before Bishop's eyes.

"Huff...huff...huff...It's strange, the king is so easy to talk to."

"But never mind, now is not the time to think about these things."

Having set aside these minor details, Bishop was too lazy to think about anything else.

Gu Yu's desire to attack the Blood Demon ultimately stems from his belief that he is doing the right thing.

There is an irreconcilable conflict between humans and vampires, with the latter treating the former as food and reserves. As a human, Gu Yu would certainly not tolerate this sense of threat.

But what if the gap between them disappeared?

Bishop doesn't expect the two sides to be like the useless brothers, Touya and Wataru, who can manage the human and vampire relationships in a well-ordered way, keeping them separate from each other.

The ferocity within the Blood Demon cannot be suppressed in a short time.

However, eliminating the divide between some humans and vampires is not impossible.

As for the method, it's actually quite simple—transform those humans into blood goblins, and the problem will be solved.

Even if Gu Yu still wants to deal with Bishop and the others, once he or his companions are transformed into Blood Fangs, there is no way to turn them back, and they will naturally be gradually rejected by others.

Humans are social animals, and because they fear loneliness, they will undoubtedly seek out others who are like themselves.

Even those beings who were once the monsters that led them to become demons might, at the last moment, choose to join the other side.

This is the plan orchestrated by Bishop and King. If the plan is completed, the energy diffusion towers created by Knight and Pawn will release the Demon Emperor's power that everyone has been storing up all at once in cities large and small.

Guided by King's power, when that time comes, those with weak constitutions will be the first to transform into Fangblood Demons. Once the Fangblood Demon population grows, will Gu Yu, that 'hero,' choose to target the common people?

After thinking about it for a moment, Bishop already had the answer in his heart.

Obviously not.

You got beaten up because the other person knew your background.

However, when faced with innocent civilians, even if the other party is a Blood Demon, Gu Yu is highly unlikely to choose to take action.

after all……

—Well, he's a good person, after all.

When a person is hated by others, he'd better have the power to crush everything and instill fear in others.

It's a pity that Gu Yu, who has enough strength, has become powerless because of these boring rules and regulations.

Kindness is often taken advantage of, and people are easily bullied and ridden. That little brat never understood one thing...

—When it comes to battles between races, only by resolving the issue with swift and decisive measures can the losses be minimized.
