There were a lot of bats...

Within the Warlock’s Eyes’ field of vision, there was pitch-black flock of bats flying out from behind the hillside, which looked like a thundercloud coming before a storm.

This nightmarish scene made Lin Li’s mouth wide open. This was not a joke! Every bat was a Vampire, and there were at least a hundred of them in this pitch-black patch. This also meant that more than 100 Vampires were waiting for them!

“This is too much of a joke...” In an instant, Lin Li felt that his mind was blank.

“So... So many?” At this time, Adelo started to panic as well. His face immediately turned pale when he looked at the flock of pitch-black bats, and beads of sweat the size of beans started to trickle down his forehead.

Vampires were in the Scar of Death. They had a terrifying speed like spirits, and were naturally proficient in all sorts of Dark Magic, causing them to be born with strength of at least level-10. Furthermore, one could not forget this was the Scar of Death, the Scar of Death that Gloomy Dark was lying in the depths of. Under the influence of Gloomy Dark’s power, even Skeletal Warriors could reach level-eight. What about Vampires that were much more powerful than Skeletal Warriors? Duh.

This was just a tragic ending...

They had expanded a Herculean effort, and even used a Ironback Blue Wolf Summoning Scroll that was worth 20,000 gold coins before they finally escaped from the Skeletal Warriors’ encirclement. Who knew that in the blink of an eye, they had encountered more than a hundred Vampires. Was there anything more ironic in this world than this?

If they’d known it was going to turn out this way, they would’ve rather fought it out with the Skeletal Warriors...

Unfortunately, it was too late for regrets now. Just when everyone was dumbfounded, a few bats already descended from the sky. A black fog rose up, and instantly transformed into the shape of a Vampire with a pale face and razor sharp claws.

The Vampires were emitting a thick scent of blood from their bodies. They arched their bodies and gave out a low roar as though they were starving wolves. Lin Li knew that they were completely different from Norfeller—even though Norfeller was a Vampire, he had retained perfect memory and soul. Furthermore, he had formed a blood oath with Lin Li, making him not any different from a real human. As for those in front of them, they were totally Undead creatures. They had no thoughts nor consciousness, and only knew slaughter and destruction. The only thing that could control them was Gloomy Dark that was hidden within the depths of the Scar of Death.

The number of bats descending from the sky grew. In the midst of the black fog, there were bats transforming into the figures of Vampires, while the scent of blood in the surroundings grew thicker and thicker. In the blink of an eye, those Vampires had blocked off the escape route of the advance party.

Everything happened so quickly that nobody could react to it. The two high-level Warriors had just drawn their weapons when a large group of Vampires charged over. The razor-sharp claws tore the air, and the sizzling sound of the air being ripped apart were like venomous snakes swimming when heard. The strength of the Vampires was on a whole new level when compared to the Skeletal Warriors that were on the other side of the hill, and the high-level Warriors that could originally sweep through hundreds of Skeletal Warriors single-handedly were now out of breath when entangled by more than ten Vampires. The Combat Energy that was protecting their bodies could not defend against the Vampires’ razor-sharp claws. In just an instant, the two high-level Warriors had slashes all over their bodies.

What was more frightening was that these Vampires did not attack blindly. At the same time when more than 10 Vampires were holding up the two high-level Warriors, even more Vampires used their speed to rush over. After that, those razor-sharp claws scattered the entire advance party. Almost every member of the advance party was surrounded by more than 10 Vampires. It was especially so for those two mages that had weak physically strength—they were surrounded by even more Vampires.

“F*ck, are you guys not embarrassed?” Lin Li was almost driven mad. It was as though these Vampires had taken stimulants and were risking their lives. A very thick ice wall was erected, yet they charged over without any hesitation. After that, they used their razor-sharp claws to tear open a pathway through the ice wall.

Li Li continued reciting and desperately strengthening the shaky and crumbling ice wall, but under the constraints of the spell’s cooldown, the speed of strengthening the wall could not keep up with the Vampires’ destruction thereof. In mere moments, the thick ice wall was battered.

However, Lin Li’s situation was not the worst. Reggie, Johnathan, and the rest had it worse. Bandits were not a profession that excelled in direct combat, plus Vampires naturally had the speed of spirits. Although they were incomparable to Norfeller, it was more than sufficient when dealing with a few level-15 Bandits. In a series of sneak attacks, three out of four of the Bandits had suffered heavy injuries. Only Reggie was left, desperately holding on...

Even level-15 Bandits were in this plight, so there was no need to mention a level-14 Warrior. From the start of the battle, Johnathan could barely hold back a few, but the number of Vampires around him grew. This level-14 warrior was soon forced into a corner.

Other than them, Adelo was not having a great time, either. A large group of Vampires held him back, and the spells that required recitation could not be cast at all. At this time, Adelo really thought that he was going to die. Even though he had the power of a level-17 Archmage, he could not use it at all. There were too many of these damned Vampires. Without the cover of the two high-level Warriors, Adelo could not stop fighting to start reciting. He could only continuously use instantaneously cast low-level spells and hope that it could delay his opponents till the two high-level Warriors came back to rescue him.

Unfortunately, Adelo did not receive the high-level Warriors’ assistance. Instead, he received an attack to his back by razor-sharp claws...

In the moment that Adelo had cast a Flaming Storm, a Vampire had already sneaked up to his back. With a “tchh”, razor-sharp claws pierced through Adelo’s body. In an instant, there was warm blood spewing everywhere. After that, this Vampire pounced over just like a hunting dog that caught its prey, and using the powerful momentum, it pushed Adelo to the ground.

After that, Adelo saw two white fangs...

It’s over... Adelo immediately thought as everything in front of him turned black.

“Boom!” But just as those two fangs were about to descend, a large fireball had flown over from afar, and landed directly on the Vampire that was about to bite him.

The power of this fireball was terrifyingly strong. A Vampire that was at least level-13 had instantaneously turned into ashes upon impact.

“Pyroblast!” Adelo, who had not recovered from his shock, raised his head and saw that young mage wielding a staff and firing large fireballs...

One, two, three, four... 10!

Looking at those fireballs roaring past, Adelo was completely stunned. The shock that these 10 fireballs gave him far surpassed the shock from those two white fangs.

As an Archmage at the peak of level-17, Adelo was very clear what type of spell the Pyroblast was. The depletion of mana after one Pyroblast was comparable to that after two level-17 and above spells. Even with his own abilities, he could cast only five of them before he had to rest. To release 10 at once, he would require stimulants...

But today, there was young mage in his twenties that had fired 10 Pyroblasts in his face.

Plus it was almost simultaneous...

After temporarily escaping from the Vampires’ entanglement, Adelo had enough time to observe that young mage’s spell-casting. This time, he clearly saw that that young mage’s recitation speed was something that he had never seen before. From the beginning till the end, there was not a single pause. A recitation that should be 10 seconds long had been completely in just five seconds, and from the sound of it, there was not a single flaw. It was natural and effortless, and had a bizarre but smooth rhythm.

The young mage gripped his magic staff tightly. The complex and mysterious incantations were spilling out of his mouth smoothly as though every word had a mysterious power, and the gigantic fireballs were like the judgment on doomsday, blasting open a bloody pathway in the encirclement of countless Vampires...

At this point, Adelo even thought that he was dreaming...

“Mage Adelo, are you alright?” It was only when this young mage had charged through the encirclement of Vampires and reached Adelo’s side before this Archmage that was good at concealment finally regained his senses.

“I’m... I’m fine.” Adelo’s voice suddenly became rather hoarse, and the gaze he fixed on Lin Li started becoming intricate.

“Seems like we really have to cooperate for once...” Lin Li smiled; he looked rather exhausted. While the Multicolored Potion could stimulate mental strength, it also pushed the body to its limits. However, there was no other choice—Lin Li had no other way out. The 10 Pyroblasts had killed 10 Vampires, which seemed rather perverted and violent, but looking at the surroundings, one would realize these 10 Vampires were just a drop in the bucket. It totally did not dampen the power of this Vampire army. Lin Li had no choice but to borrow the power of the Multicolored Potion if he wanted to escape from so many Vampires...

“I really did not think that Mage Felic’s true abilities were so powerful...” Adelo looked at Lin Li with an intricate expression; when he discovered that the other party looked rather weak, his mind felt more stable. This Archmage that was good at concealing promptly thought that this type of exhaustion was due to those 10 Pyroblasts...

Unfortunately, Adelo did not know that it was the Multicolored Potion that worked this way—as the body got weaker, mental strength would get stronger.

“Mage Adelo, you praise me too much...” Lin Li spoke as he raised the magic staff in his hands. He erected a thick ice wall in front of the both of them. “Ok, this ice wall should be able to hold off those damned Vampires, but it won’t be for long. Mage Adelo, we need to think of a solution quickly.”

“How do you want me to cooperate?”

After hearing this sentence, Lin Li smiled, satisfied. “I need you to be honest...”
