He's in Marvel, working behind the scenes.

"Killing me would be easy; just change people's perception that 'Dracula is the strongest vampire, and Dracula is immortal.' But you can't do that."

Yes, it's impossible.

Because the strongest vampire, the immortal vampire "Dracula" is standing here.

To change people's perception, Dracula must first be defeated and killed, but without changing this perception, Dracula cannot be completely defeated and killed.

The legend of Dracula and Dracula have formed a Möbius strip, existing in a paradox of absolute time.

At this moment, Vlad III finally understood the inexplicable things Dracula had said before.

The term Dracula does not refer to himself.

It is, rather, a legend.

"How could this be?"

"How could this be?"

"How could this be?"

Vlad III could not believe it, nor could he accept it.

Like him, Dracula is a non-real being born from legend. He cannot kill Dracula, therefore he cannot change people's perceptions or correct the legend.

Then he will forever bear Dracula's curse.

"impossible!"

"impossible!"

"impossible!"

Vlad III went mad, his magic raging, and he wantonly destroyed everything around him.

Accardo frowned and stepped back to a distance.

"It's already collapsed?"

Dracula laughed heartily, "I thought you'd try a little longer, only to despair after realizing it was all in vain! Haha!"

He had been suppressed by Vlad III, constantly going through cycles of life and death, suffering immense pain. But now, seeing Vlad III's collapse, his mood reversed, and he was overjoyed.

"I don't believe you, you're lying to me!"

Vlad III abruptly raised his head, staring intently at Dracula, his magical energy emanating from him growing increasingly terrifying. "You're lying to me! You're lying to me! If you're lying to me, I'll kill you!"

The terrifying magic power gained from sacrificing five high-ranking vampires was released outwards, wrapping around the tip of the spear and thrusting out.

For a moment, the world seemed to stand still.

It shattered instantly, like glass.

The air exploded like a raging storm, and buildings within thousands of meters collapsed instantly, turning the stone slabs underfoot and even the deeper layers of the ground into dust.

Accardo had already sensed the danger and dodged a hundred meters away, transforming into his Blood Shadow form. However, when the terrifying shockwave struck, it still managed to disperse the Blood Shadow in an instant.

Even the aftershocks were so powerful.

The force that Dracula, who was at the forefront of the attack, endured was terrifying beyond imagination.

In an instant, his body was pierced through with a bloody hole the size of a bucket, and the city wall behind him was also pierced in an instant, creating a ravine that stretched for four kilometers in the wilderness behind him.

This blow was a natural disaster.

The people watching on television were stunned and speechless for a long time.

But Dracula laughed.

It was no longer mockery, no longer smugness, but a relieved and comforting smile.

"Oh no, I acted impulsively!"

When Vlad III saw Dracula's smile, he suddenly realized something was wrong and knew he was in trouble.

If he uses up all the magic power he gained from the sacrifice in an instant, then he will have no power to fight Dracula.

The situation is likely to reverse next.

boom!

Just then, Dracula collapsed, blood flowing from the hole in his chest.

He did not recover as usual.

Vlad III was stunned.

what's the situation?

Doesn't this guy have extraordinary regenerative abilities?

how?

"I was indeed lying to you."

Dracula lay on his back on the ground, his eyes dull and lifeless, his voice weak and feeble, "But it's true that Dracula is a creature from legend, and it's also true that we need to correct the legend to kill Dracula. But besides that, there are other ways to kill him."

"Other methods"

Vlad III pondered for a moment, then, as if remembering something, suddenly raised his head.

But before he could speak, Dracula preemptively answered, "You're right. Another way is for Dracula to kill Dracula. Dracula is the strongest vampire and is immortal. Such a Dracula cannot lose to anyone, much less be killed. But if the opponent is another Dracula, then there's no problem."

At this point, Dracula smiled with relief, "Legend has given birth to Dracula. Therefore, as long as the legend exists, even if Dracula's soul perishes, he will be reborn from the void. But if Dracula still exists in the world, then the dead Dracula will not be resurrected."

Upon hearing this, Vlad III felt a chill run down his spine, a sense of foreboding washing over him.

Chapter 222 The Vampire King (The End)

Dracula is a curse—

This applies not only to Vlad III, but also to Dracula himself.

To save his country and protect his loved ones, Dracula resolutely chose to become a vampire.

But in the end, he was unable to protect anything.

All his relatives died, his subjects and army were transformed into vampires by him, and the people feared him.

He himself was also abandoned by the Lord.

"By becoming a vampire, you will be abandoned by the Lord, you will lose the right to be loved, you will lose the right to walk in the sunlight, all your loved ones will suffer misfortune, and all your people will fear you!"

The vampire who turned him into a vampire had told Dracula about these costs, but Dracula only thought that these were the costs that every vampire had to bear.

But unexpectedly, only Dracula was like that.

Although the emergence of different versions of the legend later gave him the right to walk in the sunlight again, that was all.

"Dracula is a curse, a curse of immortality."

Dracula smiled sadly, pointed at Vlad III, and said, "Now, I am free. But you, you shall begin to bear this curse!"

After saying that, his arm fell limply to his side.

Dracula was completely deprived of life.

Vlad III stared wide-eyed, still reeling from the sheer volume of information, until the power surged dramatically, bringing him back to his senses.

Vlad III raised his hands and placed them in front of his eyes.

Looking at his gradually pale skin and growing nails, his eyes were filled with panic.

"no, do not want!"

"I don't want to become a vampire!"

"I am not a vampire! No, I am not!"

"Take it away! Take it away!"

"Help! Help! Stop this!"

Vlad III screamed and struggled in panic, but he could not stop the changes in his body.

He grew taller, his skin paler, his fingers longer, his nails sharper, his ears longer, and his eyes gradually began to glow red.

He's becoming more and more like a vampire.

The viewers watching on television grew increasingly terrified.

What's going on here?

Didn't Vlad III kill Dracula?

Why did he become a vampire?

Could it be that he was originally a vampire?

Those watching on screen couldn't hear the sound and naturally didn't know what had happened. Those who had begun to believe Vlad III was human after witnessing him kill Dracula started to waver.

……

[Ding! Your A-rank, two-star doll "Vlad III" has been corrupted by an unknown energy, and its form has changed!]

[Ding! Your A-rank two-star doll "Vlad III" has been transformed from a Heroic Spirit into a vampire, and its rank has been upgraded to A-rank six stars!]

Upon hearing the system's voice, Gu Qing fell silent.

After a long while, he couldn't help but sigh, "I never expected it to be like this."

From the very beginning, I felt that Dracula was deliberately hiding his true abilities and secretly plotting something... but I only thought it was a plan against Vlad III and Accardo.

Unexpectedly, they were planning how to make me die.

“The curse called ‘Dracula’ is truly a terrifying existence!” Gu Qing sighed once again.

As a believer, yet abandoned by the Lord.

As a king who desperately wants to protect his country, he is forced to turn his subjects into vampires.

As a husband and a father, he was forced to watch his wife die, and to save his son, he had to turn him into a monster just like himself...

If it were just a matter of paying such a price, that would be one thing, but this price will accompany Dracula throughout his life and his eternal existence.
