“Brother Crow, I’m not well-educated, but I heard you were a college student before, so you should be considered a cultured person. Why don’t you try to communicate with these two Japanese devils?”
Hammer looked at Crow and said.
"Holy crap, Crow Bro is a college student."
"A cultured person is a cultured person."
All eyes turned to the crow.
"Cough cough."
The crow cleared its throat. "They vampires must be speaking Night Whisper, Night Whisper..."
Hey guys, good morning, how are you?
The crow pondered for a second, then finally managed to utter this sentence. His pronunciation was particularly awkward, but it was indeed night talk. As for its meaning, he had forgotten it himself, only remembering that he was communicating with the vampire foreigner.
"???"
The two vampires looked exasperated.
The human in front of me seems to have some serious illness.
Just as the two sides were locked in a stalemate due to the language barrier, Leon squeezed out from behind Raven and the others.
Due to the urgency of the situation, he quickly said, "Gentlemen, we must escape from here today. You are young and have a long and happy future ahead of you. I hope you can cooperate. Otherwise, even if we all fight to the death, we will kill you two. Gentlemen, you probably don't want to trade your noble vampire lives for those of lowly humans. It's not worth it."
Leon spoke in fluent Night Language.
This left the crow, who was still pondering new words, and the crowd who were looking forward to seeing crows completely stunned.
This kid knows vampire language?
The crows and the others looked at each other in bewilderment.
“Mr. Daniel, I was wondering how these humans found their way here. It turns out you were the one who guided them.”
A vampire sneered, "Miss Philippa valued you so much, and you betrayed her."
Because Leon's face was so handsome, they easily recognized him even though they had only met once before.
This is the trouble of being handsome.
"Yes, I'm sorry, but I'm human, and what I long for is to return to my home. Miss Philippa is indeed a good person, but we can never be on the same path."
“You despicable and vile human, I will destroy you for Miss Philippa.”
Another vampire warrior drew his blade and lunged at Leon, but was blocked by steel bars and a hammer.
Leon scoffed, "We're just using the sealing artifact to leave, and letting a few dozen humans go won't cost you anything. Whether you choose to sacrifice yourself and have your portraits hung up in black and white, or to protect yourselves, I think you two are the right people."
"Shameless."
The vampire warrior glanced at the menacing crowd, spat, and cursed fiercely before abruptly changing the subject, "Dear Mr. Daniel, due to limitations in our permissions, we can only open the doors to epic-level sealed artifacts at most."
"Hurry up, open it."
Leon urged.
He knew this would happen. This is just how vampires are by nature. Because of their long lifespan, they are even more afraid of accidental death. Therefore, their race is not warlike and has little spirit of self-sacrifice.
If you're going to war, never be allies with them, or you'll be utterly betrayed. Although they are incredibly powerful due to their vampire physique, they are often the first to surrender.
The reason for surrendering is simple: all the other side needs to do is shout, "Treat prisoners of war well, provide food."
"Okay, sir."
One of the two vampire warriors walked to the wall, and soon the familiar magic circle image reappeared before Leon's eyes.
The next moment, a purple vortex gate appeared on the empty wall.
"The door is open, let's go."
Leon walked to the portal, looked at the two vampires, then used his spiritual vision to examine the portal closely. He then turned and shouted something in Fchester, before entering the portal first.
Seeing this, everyone rushed in one after another.
Chapter Thirty-Seven: The Game of Death
After Leon, Raven, and the others entered the vortex portal, the rest of the people rushed in recklessly, as if their lives depended on it.
But just as a few people rushed in, the portal suddenly disappeared.
The first few people rushed in and crashed hard into the solid wall, howling in pain.
Almost instantly, the entire room was enveloped in a rusty red. Before anyone could react, their eyes suddenly bulged out dramatically, and their bodies became bloodshot, as if their blood vessels were being inflated and expanded. Then, with a series of resounding bangs, everyone crammed into the room turned into a blood mist.
They're all dead.
Nearly a hundred people were all killed instantly, not even lasting three breaths.
Not even ashes remained.
Amidst the blood mist, a tall man with crimson eyes, wearing a white shirt, a black vest, and slicked-back hair, slowly walked in from the doorway.
He wore white rubber gloves and leaned on a gilded gentleman's cane, which made a clattering sound as he walked.
“Lord Riodi…”
After recognizing the newcomer, the two vampire guards stepped forward to greet him with a slightly flustered expression.
"Tsk, you two are useless."
Ridiod glanced at the two guards briefly, then walked straight to the wall without looking at them again.
The cane tapped lightly against the wall, and a magic circle pattern quickly appeared. Leaudi swung the cane rapidly, and then the magic circle pattern shifted dramatically, with countless inscriptions emerging...
After a brief moment of darkness, everything returned to normal.
Leon returned to that exhibition hall-like place once again.
However, this time the sealed artifacts in the exhibition hall have all been upgraded to a higher level; they are not heroes but epics.
There are many sealed artifacts here, and finding a teleportation-type sealed artifact in a short time is not an easy task for Leon and his companions, who are not familiar with this place.
However, heading towards the higher-level areas is definitely the right move.
Therefore, as soon as they entered this place, everyone rushed towards the area of high-level sealed artifacts with bloodshot eyes.
Leon was the first to enter this place, and naturally the first to reach the high-level epic zone.
However, he was extremely unlucky, triggering several sealed artifacts in succession, none of which had anything to do with teleportation.
Just as Leon was lamenting his bad luck, thinking that if it were Helena, the first sealed artifact she would have seen upon entering would have been the teleportation-type sealed artifact most suitable for escaping this place, he suddenly felt that something was wrong with the space.
First of all, it seems that no new humans have come in.
What does this mean? It means the entrance was closed in advance.
The two vampire guards weren't very strong; they weren't demigods, probably only close to diamond level. Therefore, they would never do such a thing to save their lives.
It seems the powerful figures from the castle have arrived...
Leon's expression froze slightly as he looked in the direction that had triggered his inspiration.
Suddenly, one of the sealed artifacts there came to life.
Then, the sealed object revealed its smooth, mirror-like surface. It was a spherical object that looked like a globe, but it had no patterns on its surface; it was just a glass ball hanging on a shelf.
At this moment, the more than twenty humans present also noticed the abnormality and all turned their attention to this place.
The glass ball began to spin under everyone's gaze. As it spun faster and faster, Leon suddenly had the illusion that he was spinning along with the ball, and this illusion became more and more real in his perception, even after he looked away from the glass ball.
Then, Leon felt his mind being gradually drained away. He suddenly lost his sense of direction and felt that the world around him had become bizarre and surreal, and that everything was upside down.
Just when Leon felt he was about to collapse, the dizziness suddenly disappeared, and as the dizziness subsided, Leon finally regained his sense of direction little by little.
Only then did he realize that he was in a white, misty space, with Crow, Hammer, and more than twenty other humans who had rushed through the portal into the interior.
Their situation was similar to Leon's; they weren't much better off.
"Humans, greetings. You may call me Your Honor."
A slightly magnetic baritone voice rang out, and Leon looked in the direction of the sound and saw a projection.
The projection showed a young-looking man in a white shirt, black vest, and slicked-back hair, leaning on a gold-plated cane. He was looking at the humans in front of him with a smiling face.
Magistrate?
Leon's heart tightened.
Being able to control spatial arrays and activate sealed objects within space without entering it, this guy is definitely a super strong individual.
However, since he is male, and given his understanding of vampire pathways, this guy did not gender-swap into a beautiful girl. Therefore, Leon can confirm that he is at most Obsidian-level with full stars, which is the same level as Chad, Hibbert's strongest henchman. Perhaps he is not even as strong as Chad.
If Hawkeye, the strongest Hunter Path user, were still his bodyguard, then even if Leon were to stomp his shoe on Hawkeye's face, he wouldn't dare utter a single word against a transcendent being of that caliber.
Chad, the fully-starred Obsidian-level assassin who was nearly beaten to death, is the best example.
"Don't you all want to escape from here? How about we play a game?"
Seeing that the people around him were silent, Lydia had no choice but to cover up his embarrassment and continue speaking.
game?
Everyone looked at each other.
"It's impossible for you to escape now, but I can grant you your freedom."
Leo continued, "Now, I will remove the restrictions on all of you. Afterward, you will be randomly teleported to different spaces for one-on-one life-or-death battles. Of the twenty-six of you, only the last one alive can leave!"
Leo laughed out loud, "I love watching dogs fight each other. It's so funny to think about. I swear in the name of the progenitor, I will definitely send the last survivor back to the outside world. So for this only chance of freedom, humans, fight each other to your heart's content."
This!
Leon and the others turned pale instantly, but before they could react, the dizziness that made them lose their sense of direction struck again.
This time it didn't last that long; it returned to normal in just a short while.
At this moment, Leon was still in the white space, but everyone else around him had disappeared, leaving only a sallow and emaciated man.
"The opponents have been assigned. The space will only change if one of the two sides dies. Otherwise, the two of you will be trapped inside forever. So, for the sake of freedom, you must eliminate your opponents decisively."
Lyodi's wicked sneer echoed throughout the space.
P.S.: Winter break is almost here, and I'll be able to speed up updates soon, but... it seems I've lost another hundred followers... I remember it was 16,700 when I first logged off Twitter...
Chapter Thirty-Eight: Divine Martial Awakening
Alive...
Only by killing the other can one survive.
Given the strength of Leon and the other prisoners, it's impossible for any of them to break free from Lyodi's control.
Therefore, we can only follow the rules set by Ricardo.
It's the same in any world.
Rules are always established by the strong.
Therefore,
Is killing this fellow human being in front of me the only option?
Leon swallowed hard, looking warily at the man standing opposite him.
The other person was also staring blankly at Leon.
He wasn't an extraordinary being; he was just an ordinary person. It wouldn't be difficult for Leon to kill him, but it would be extremely difficult for him to kill Leon.
"Tsk tsk tsk, a battle between an extraordinary being and an ordinary person, the outcome is never in doubt, it's really not interesting!"
Li Audi's voice drifted over.
Then, a gleaming golden longsword suddenly appeared in the hand of the man opposite Leon.
Epic weaponry!
Leon sensed the strong spiritual aura emanating from the longsword.
