Chapter 524 Dark Phoenix
"I am just a vampire who happened to be vacationing here, and now you people are ruining it," Viktor said with crossed arms as he wondered who this guy in a creepy cloak was.
But he now realized why he was feeling weakened. The Void Temple had something to do with this, and he didn't find it surprising since the Void Force was the bane of the Odic Force.
"You outsiders are not welcome to our ancestral land. Leave now, or you all will die before any one of you can even enter our temple. No matter how powerful you people can be, you all would be no stronger than ordinary mortals once inside the temple. It will only make it easier for us to get rid of you all," Aelita said as she tightened her grip around her heavy hammer.
Lord Phoenix nodded slowly, "You are right, young girl. But you know that once I get the Void Ring, none of you will be able to stop me. No…not only you people, but the entire Odic Realm would also soon bow to its true master."
'The Void Ring? Is that thing the reason we are feeling this suppression?' Viktor mused inwardly.
Aelita firmly pressed her lips together as she said with an incensed look, "You won't dare! Our Ancestral Treasure isn't meant to be possessed by any mortal, nor will we let you get it."
"Is that so? Let's find out, shall we?" Lord Phoenix casually waved his hand as dozens of pseudo-vampires came out from within the bushes.
Umilia frowned at seeing so many of them since this could only mean that the darkness in the human world had spread to the point where many ordinary humans were being turned into these monsters. She felt things were always worse than she expected, and she couldn't even imagine when chaos would descend in the city where she and her family lived.
"You coward. You don't even dare to face us," Aelita said, trying to provoke him to stay. She wasn't worried about handling all these pseudo-vampires, but by that time, this man who calls himself Lord Phoenix would surely get what he wanted.
Lord Phoenix let out a subtle chuckle, "You should thank your gods that I am not staying to face you. I am more than confident that Hawk Demoness and my small army of vampires will do the job. But since we have unexpected friends here, she will be keeping you all company as well," Lord Phoenix gestured to the side as a deathly aura suddenly descended in the area.
"Death Queen…" Umilia mumbled with furrowed brows upon seeing a woman clothed in a dark gray catsuit descending from the air, her face hidden by a half-face mask that covered the upper half of her fair oval face. Her lips were jet-black which seemed to only heighten the aura of death surrounding her. Her long brown hair extended to her waist, and her deep black eyes would make one feel like they were staring at the face of death.
Even Hawk Demoness unconsciously drifted a few feet away the moment Death Queen descended.
"We meet again, Saintess. You escaped death twice but not again," Death Queen said and then turned her head towards him, "You can leave, Dark Phoenix. "
Dark Phoenix flew off towards the temple. But hearing the name 'Saintess', he shot a glance at her before flying towards the mountain.
This time, Umilia wasn't as nervous as before about facing her as she floated up into the air till her gaze met Death Queen's eyes, "Not before the sacred light purges you."
Viktor had only seen this woman with sexy curves named Death Queen once before when she almost killed Umilia. But Umilia had told him enough to know that these two had unfinished business to settle and that she would have to be the one to take her down.
This time he felt that Umilia seemed to carry far more confidence and strength in her aura and bearings, which made him feel that something must have happened before during her battle with Blight. He did feel subtle tremors through the earth before when he was busy battling Hawk Demoness.
And seeing all these powerful guys arriving one after the other, he felt that this Void Ring must be quite the big deal.
But he reeled back in his thoughts upon seeing the Dark Phoenix guy flying for the temple.
"I will go after him," He told Aelita as he tried to go after him.
"Not so fast, pretty boy," Hawk Demoness sneered as she flew after Viktor.
"You are mine," Death Queen said with a chilling gaze as she unleashed a beam of deathly energy at Saintess.
Umilia's hands glowed as a beam of sacred light surged forth to meet Death Queen's deathly energy.
Aelita decided to take on these 50 pseudo vampires as she charged at them and raised her Void Hammer high to smash at them.
Six pseudo-vampires lunged at her at the same time, baring their fangs to drain her blood. But Aelita gripped the long handle of her heavy hammer with both hands and executed a quick yet powerful attack in the form of an arc.
Dark purple light flashed in the area as all six pseudo vampires were smashed by her hammer one after the other before they could even touch her.
Their howls resounded through the air as all of them were blasted away with blood gushing out of their mouths. Every single one of them had their chest caved in from the crushing impact of her heavy hammer, and their odic force was disrupted enough to damage their internal organs.
All six of them died within just a few moments, making the other 44 pseudo-vampires look at her as if they were looking at a monster.
And just a hundred meters away, Viktor was deflecting Hawk Demoness' mace as she kept swinging at him, each strike carrying enough power to crush a tank.
*CRAWK!*
Her mace smashed a huge tree into bits and pieces as Viktor crouched to dodge her blow.
Viktor felt that more than her flames, it was her mace that was quite deadly. It was surely no ordinary weapon.
"Enough!" Viktor said with a frustrated look as he let her mace smash against his hand, which made Hawk Demoness snort since he left himself wide open for a follow-up attack.
But she frowned when a pair of arms hooked themselves around her neck before choking her.
