Chapter 275: The Bloodline Project Savior
Edward was not yet dead, because Wen Xishu had delayed setting a time of death. He still hoped that Edward could die at the hands of Cain.
Because he needed to see Cain.
He needed to ensure that Cain’s name was indeed that name; in fact, he had already written down the two characters for Cain.
But there was no reaction indicating that anyone had been killed.
The situation on the battlefield was changing in an instant.
A powerful vampire lord-level entity suddenly rebelled, shouting, "For the Ultimate Murder King."
On the other side, the werewolves once again utilized the Moon Descent to tear open the "Night Summoning."
When the shifting situation left the vampires bewildered, especially when several high-level vampires—powerhouses like Carmilla and Dracula—temporarily looked away...
Wen Xishu had already begun the script arrangement.
All the werewolves began a desperate charge.
Because the moment the werewolves appeared, the claim about not attacking the owner of the Scale of Chaos for two hours no longer mattered.
The moment they appeared, Wen Xishu was already controlling them.
They certainly had to die, and how they died had to be decided by him.
The strange journey of death granted Wen Xishu the power to dictate the script in this round. One by one, the werewolves howled and transformed, then began to grapple with the vampires in the dark night.
A cry from Carmilla came from the battlefield:
"These damned werewolves! They are charging into the night as if committing suicide, just to create an opportunity for the werewolves behind them to tear open the night!"
"I want to kill them! Kill them all! Drink their blood!"
Carmilla, whose true identity was a countess.
Historically, Countess Báthory tortured and killed three hundred young girls, bathing in their blood in a quest for eternal life.
Because of this, she was a vampire older than Dracula, an immortal who had walked out of a pool of blood.
But clearly, this Carmilla was now in a very bad spot.
Under Wen Xishu’s script, the werewolves used cost-no-object methods one after another, making it difficult for Carmilla to cope.
The night could swallow everything, even the bombardment of cannons.
But the night also had its limits, just like the intense light emitted by flares, which they could not swallow immediately.
So Wen Xishu realized that the night was like a stomach. Its swallowing also required a digestive process.
During this process, Wen Xishu’s frantic attacks forced the werewolves to stuff the stomach.
Even a terrifying method like Night Summoning showed a state of "insufficient power" when faced with human-wave tactics.
The werewolf king, Lycaon, launched the most powerful Moon Descent at this moment!
When Carmilla’s night-swallowing was filled with countless werewolves and she had no time to attend to others, the scarlet moonlight tore open the night.
Just in that instant, Wen Xishu saw Carmilla’s true name.
And so, the next second... Carmilla canceled the Night Summoning.
"For..." Carmilla’s heart fell into fear, and her body began to tremble uncontrollably.
She was about to shout a sentence.
This sentence, the three killers Cannon, Canon, and Night Demon could already answer in advance:
"The Ultimate Murder King!"
Yes, for the Ultimate Murder King.
When Carmilla also shouted this phrase, a bizarre situation occurred... the werewolf king Lycaon actually walked over to Carmilla.
Subsequently, under the moonlight, Carmilla, with her pale skin and eerie beauty, bit the werewolf king’s neck.
The blood-embraced werewolf king felt a dual power within his body at this moment.
"Damn it! This is a rebellion! You are rebelling with the werewolves, you are betraying Lord Cain!"
Dracula was beating Edward.
Edward’s name was not actually Edward either, but because there was a "vegetarian" vampire named Edward in the literature of this world, this high-level vampire had given himself this codename.
But because he did not drink blood, and even when hungry to the extreme would not drink human blood, only absorbing animal blood, this resulted in Edward’s combat power being at the bottom among high-level vampires, despite his lineage being stronger than ordinary ones.
Dracula almost crushed Edward.
But in order to let Edward die at the hands of Cain... rather than being killed by Dracula prematurely, Wen Xishu now began to control Carmilla and the werewolf king to act together.
The other four high-level vampires in the night were all being harassed by other werewolves, and as for the ordinary vampires, Cannon’s artillery bombardment had begun again.
Dracula was not a match for Carmilla to begin with, and with the addition of a blood-embraced werewolf king, as well as Edward, the situation immediately reversed.
Dracula’s night shield was finally broken.
"Is he also going to start saying 'For the Ultimate Murder King'?"
Every killer seemed to have found the key point.
As long as they were exposed to Wen Xishu’s line of sight, it seemed they had to fall.
Sure enough, this guess was immediately confirmed.
"For the Ultimate Murder King!" the vampire Dracula shouted.
With this, the remaining four high-level vampires were all stunned.
What was going on?
What on earth was happening tonight?
Although the killers realized it, for the high-level vampires, it was incomprehensible. How could even Dracula rebel?
How could this be a rebellion?
It could be said that Carmilla and Dracula were the strongest combat forces among the high-level vampires, and the fact that they both rebelled... was simply incredible.
And at this time, Wen Xishu discovered that Cain still hadn't appeared, and hadn't come to kill Edward.
"It seems this thing does have limitations. For example, if I write that Edward is immediately hit by a truck and dies... but if there is no truck here, then he will die immediately, but the cause of death will not be being hit by a truck."
It still had to satisfy the objective conditions of the world.
Wen Xishu felt a bit of trouble.
Fortunately, the situation on the battlefield had completely reversed.
Since Edward was not yet dead, Wen Xishu extended Edward’s pre-death behavior and began to control him to attack the remaining vampires together with Dracula and Carmilla.
At the same time, as the owner of the name Dracula, Wen Xishu wondered, such a classic vampire codename... surely he had met Cain?
But unfortunately, when Wen Xishu tried to control Dracula to speak about information regarding Cain...
Dracula indicated:
"I know nothing... about the Lord."
This was a headache.
Such a powerful vampire, yet he had no effective information when facing Cain?
Wen Xishu could only choose to try to have them all die at the hands of Cain, provided it was under the moonlight of the werewolf king.
This time, Wen Xishu also began to lose confidence.
Because Cain seemed very special; how did that saying go? The later a character appears, the higher the version benefits.
Cain had not appeared for a long time, and he began to worry that the Death Note could not affect Cain.
The seven high-level vampires were gradually being subdued.
When the seventh high-level vampire, Niklaus, also began to shout "For the Ultimate Murder King."
At this moment, Cosmos, who was bleeding from seven orifices and had caused all enemies on the entire battlefield to lose their "crisis awareness," had an urge to vomit blood.
All the enemies had been converted; was there still any need for me to... exert my abilities under overload?
Is this really us few trying to assassinate Cain? We are simply... just here to make up the numbers.
It was no wonder Cosmos thought this, when the high and mighty werewolves and vampires were all shouting "For the Ultimate Murder King."
Even the vampires who were trying to attack and had not yet been converted were stunned.
They could not see Cain, but they had at least seen the seven enforcers.
The one that the seven enforcers collectively worshipped, wasn't that Cain? They concluded—the Ultimate Murder King was Cain.
And so they were stunned too.
Cannon even ceased fire because he saw the vampires stop their charge.
When the seven vampire enforcers stood in a row outside Canon’s evil formation eye—the vampires could no longer tell the difference; they felt as if they were the ones who were the traitors. Otherwise, why would they attack the seven vampire lord masters?
The situation had become somewhat comical.
Wen Xishu could almost say that he had taken down this vampire base camp single-handedly.
Of course, in the real world, this vampire base camp still existed and was extremely difficult to conquer.
Especially at night, even the Red Houses would take a detour when seeing this city from afar.
But at this moment, in the Strange Tower, Wen Xishu had already used the authority of the Lord of the Underworld to checkmate them.
Only the Lone King remained on the other side.
Although the World of Obsession was very different from the real world, all living beings in this world had almost the same reactions as in the real world.
Wen Xishu had a premonition... Cain would appear soon.
……
……
"For the Ultimate Murder King!"
When this sentence appeared throughout the entire city, some small things gradually began to appear in the sky. Bats.
It was not strange that there would be bats where there were vampires.
The few killers did not care at first.
But very soon, the number of bats began to show a geometric increase.
Moonlight can tear through the night, but it absolutely cannot tear through a physical entity.
Countless bats formed a curtain that obscured the sky.
The moment the number of bats became so great that the city was dimmed, Wen Xishu suddenly looked up.
Night Demon felt a tremor from the depths of his soul. That feeling of the king of the dark night descending made his legs shake involuntarily, and he actually had the urge to kneel.
Not just him, but even the seven vampires already controlled by Wen Xishu knelt down while shouting, "For the Ultimate Killer King."
Night Demon was not a member of the Blood Clan after all, so he did not kneel.
But Wen Xishu and everyone else saw an incredible scene.
All the vampires performed French etiquette, and tens of thousands of vampires knelt down in patches just like that.
They not only knelt, they even lowered their heads.
Wen Xishu was very curious...
If he made them stand up at this moment, what would happen?
But he discovered that this was impossible; the Seven-Colored Quill could make the vampires die and could decide life and death, but it could not make them do things they were incapable of.
For example, when the Vampire Progenitor, the first vampire Cain, appeared—to look up and gaze at him.
Countless bats formed the night sky, and countless more bats lifted a coffin, with an inverted cross carved upon it.
It floated in the air, like a god who had come from the heavens to the mortal world.
Cosmos finally could not hold on any longer; he did not know if he had successfully lured out the Vampire King, Cain.
But he knew that he had exhausted all of his strength.
Even under the Harvesting Array, Cosmos had used up all his strength and collapsed to the ground.
Canon made a swallowing motion.
He had a premonition... that all his witchcraft would likely be ineffective against a high-level vampire, let alone... this existence that was countless times stronger than a high-level vampire.
Without a doubt, the existence in the coffin was the Vampire King, Cain.
The savior of the Lion Heart Kingdom's Bloodline Project.
In a sense, the Bloodline Project... could not actually be considered a failure up to this point.
But in this plan, there were no humans left.
Cannon wanted to aim the rocket launcher in his hands at that coffin, but this action was performed with extreme difficulty.
The opponent's mere aura, the aura that was isolated by the coffin, already made his legs tremble.
Wen Xishu knew that Cain would be stronger than the seven vampire enforcers... but he had not expected him to be strong to this extent.
It was simply not on the same order of magnitude.
The feeling it gave Wen Xishu was that Cain could wipe out all the vampires with a flick of his finger.
This was the pressure brought by the owner of the inverted-cross coffin floating in the sky at this moment.
Night Demon, Canon, and Cannon subconsciously looked at Wen Xishu, and seeing that even Wen Xishu had lost his usual composure, they felt uneasy.
"So... these are the world's top-tier powerhouses." Cannon felt despair in his heart.
Under the effect of Canon's array, he had almost achieved true infinite firepower, but now he could hardly even aim at the opponent.
The savior of the Lion Heart Kingdom was perhaps only the weakest one.
The "Dragon" in the Longxia Long Yin Project was perhaps even stronger than Cain.
Canon also began to think:
We were actually so arrogant, attempting to assassinate such an existence.
This is simply... a god!
For those who had not climbed the Weird Tower and, at the beginning of the apocalypse, had only awakened a portion of their abilities, suddenly seeing the scene of Cain's descent would indeed make them view him as a god.
A single ordinary vampire was enough to make them feel troubled, let alone a high-level vampire who was countless times stronger than an ordinary one.
But now, tens of thousands of vampires and seven high-level vampires, facing Cain's bloodline suppression, did not even dare to look up and peek.
Such an existence, and they actually wanted to assassinate him.
Wen Xishu suddenly said:
"Perhaps his entrance is just very imposing... perhaps he only uses bloodline suppression to make vampires submit, perhaps he only gives people a sense of fear, but if we overcome the fear, can we defeat him?"
This sentence used the word "perhaps" three times in a row; clearly, as a morale-boosting speech, it was ineffective.
But next, something unexpected to everyone happened on the scene.
"Awoo!"
The Wolf King Lycaon, he knelt on one knee on the ground; unlike those prostrate vampires, although he had been blood-embraced, he still had wolf-clan bloodline in his body.
As a super existence summoned by Scorpion Knife, the Wolf King's roar gave all the werewolves of the wolf clan the will to fight.
"I don't ask to defeat you, I know I can't beat you head-on... but all I need to do is break open your coffin and see your name!"
Wen Xishu had already written the script.
The Wolf King finally overcame his fear, controlled the pack of wolves, and launched a charge toward the coffin held up by countless bats in the sky.
Wolf King Lycaon, this blasphemous act naturally provoked Cain's dissatisfaction.
Facing the blood-colored arc blade swung by the Wolf King, the owner of the coffin summoned the seven vampire lords to resist.
Yes, the owner of the coffin, Cain, realized that it seemed his servants were being "controlled" by some kind of power.
But he was confident that his bloodline suppression surpassed all hypnosis.
However, Wen Xishu was no pushover; after seeing Cain's aura, he had already felt that perhaps "hypnosis" could not suppress the vampires.
In other words, in terms of controlling behavior, his authority was lower than Cain's.
"But in controlling life and death, I am the master!"
Bang!
A grand, unprecedented baptism of super blood explosions was presented to the eyes of the few killers.
Wen Xishu shouted:
"Gather your courage! The opponent is not invincible!"
He really needed these killers to gather their courage, because what he had to do was satisfy these obsessions.
And next, the killers were also shocked to discover... the vampires began to die continuously.
Cain tried to have the vampires block the wolf clan, but every single vampire met with a blood explosion at this moment.
They exploded one by one, like watermelons being smashed.
Crystal City, at this moment, unlocked the Blood Crystal City paint job.
Edward, Dracula, Camilla... or countless ordinary vampires, without exception, all met their deaths at this moment.
And without the obstruction of the vampires, the Wolf King Lycaon finally used its sharp claws to pry open the inverted-cross coffin.
"Cannon! Fire at the bats in the sky! Show your guts!"
Cannon knew that the Ultimate Killer King seemed to have an ability where he could control the opponent as long as he saw their appearance.
At this moment, he also understood that the opportunity was once in a lifetime; once Cain reacted, they might never be able to see Cain again!
"Screw you, Vampire King! Screw you, savior, I'm going to kill you today!"
With a hardened heart, all fear vanished at this moment, and Cannon fired fiercely at the bats in the sky that were trying to block the moonlight.
The bats did not fear the flames, so they were clearly not ordinary bats.
But they had to yield to the truth; artillery was the truth, and wherever the truth passed, everything turned to ashes.
The moonlight shone on the coffin, reflecting the scene of the Wolf King Lycaon being pierced through by the Vampire King with one hand.
The powerful dual-bloodline Wolf King died easily at this moment. Dying along with it were countless wolf-clan members summoned by the Scales of Chaos.
Wen Xishu knew that these third-party forces would eventually belong to "Libra," so he did not care.
What he cared about was that the Wolf King did not die in vain.
Because this scene was shrouded in moonlight by the Wolf King and reflected into everyone's sight.
Cannon was still firing wildly.
He knew he had to buy time for Wen Xishu.
Cain frowned secretly and waved his hand lightly; an invisible night curtain swallowed all the bombardment.
And the next instant, Cain had already appeared in front of Cannon and easily snapped Cannon's "truth."
But at the very moment Cain tried to kill Cannon, Night Demon finally overcame his fear of this master of the dark night.
He erupted with astonishing speed, knocked Cannon away, and stood in front of Cain.
Cain actually did not kill Night Demon immediately.
It was as if he felt some kind of power from Night Demon that made him feel close. So much so that he paused slightly.
This pause was fatal.
