Chapter 554 Vampire
Chapter 554 Vampire
The black gas was thick and toxic.
It filled the air with a foul and suffocating smell.
“Wind Elementalists! Runecasters! Hurry and push the gas away!” Roland suddenly shouted.
Cough! Cough! Cough!
The black gas burned their eyes and lungs. It made them cough and choke. It was a deadly weapon, and they had to do something about it. Their Arcane Energy and Magic Zone wouldn’t be able to help them with this type of danger.
The panicking Arcanists reacted quickly as soon as they realized the danger. Some of them cast some spells to escape from the gas.
“Follow me!” Roland shouted as he realized that the Spells of the Elementalists weren’t doing anything. The toxic gas wasn’t stopping at all.
They ran towards the stairs, hoping to find a way out. They used their barrier-type spells to push out the air and Mystical Artifacts that produced a strong wind, trying to clear the gas.
They used anything they could to disperse the gas.
Under Roland and Drake’s lead, they formed a line to ensure that they wouldn’t get flustered, even if there was an enemy on the second floor.
They cast their spells, creating a path and protection. They activated their Mystical Artifacts, enhancing their speed and their resistance against the toxic gas.
Fortunately, the gas seemed dense as it didn’t reach the second floor yet.
At this moment, Elsa, the leader of the Revenant Squad, finally finished her preparation…
The Talisman in her hand suddenly shone. There was a Rune Circle drawn on it, and as soon as it was activated, it became like a vacuum that absorbed the toxic gas that were coming at them!
“Tsk… It’s too much. My Talisman can’t absorb them all.” Elsa alerted everyone as she could tell the capacity of her Talisman.
“I’m on it!” Drake yelled as he used his Beast Art. 𝑖𝑟𝘦.𝘤𝑜𝘮
Then, an image of a menacing cougar materialized behind him!
As soon as Elsa’s Talisman was full, he swiftly released his Spell!
With a thunderous roar, a shockwave ensued, and the toxic gas was pushed out. Moreover, it seemed to have the ability to cleanse the toxic gas!
“Incredible!”
“The toxic gas is clearing!”
“So Beast Arts can have such an awesome Spell.”
“Indeed… I thought they were all meant to improve the Arcanists’s physical abilities.”
To be honest, even Clovis didn’t have a better solution for this problem. At best, he could use his Darkness Manipulation to protect himself, but saving everyone else would be exhausting for him.
“Hahaha! I did it!” Drake laughed as he thought that he had contributed a lot to this situation. He looked proud as he scanned everyone’s reaction.
However, Roy immediately retorted.
“Hmph… If your subordinate didn’t trigger the trap, we wouldn’t be in such a predicament in the first place.”
Roy’s words made Drake angry and defensive. He glared at Roy and snapped back.
“What? Are you blaming me and my Squads for this? How am I supposed to know that there’s a trap there? It’s not like you or your Squads didn’t inspect an item that’s lying around. You’re just a bunch of losers who can’t be the best. If I didn’t use my Roar Technique, the toxic gas would slowly kill us. Tsk… We should’ve just explored this place on our own.” Drake said with a sneer and a taunt.
Of course, the Ash Squad’s members sided with Drake as they didn’t want to take the blame. They also looked annoyed and offended. They immediately addressed Roy and spoke up.
“Yeah, what he said was right. You and your Squads didn’t even do anything to deal with that toxic gas.. You should just give up and quit. We’ll take care of the rest…” They said with a chorus and a mockery.
“That’s enough… We should be helping each other and not fighting each other. Elsa also took care of almost half of the toxic gas.” Roland said as he stepped forward. He signaled Roy to just keep silent as he doesn’t feel comfortable arguing inside this castle.
However, even if Roy decided not to reply, Clovis had different thoughts.
“Really? Do you think that you and your Squads can subjugate this Vampire’s Castle? Why don’t you show us what you and your Squads can do? There’s another enemy in that room… He’s alone, so he might be the boss or just a minion. Why don’t you handle him?” Clovis said as his gaze shifted to the huge door on the east side of the second floor.
“Alright! My four Squads will deal with the enemy inside! Any treasures inside will be ours!” Drake said as he led his team to the door.
To be honest, his Magic Zone and Detection Spells couldn’t penetrate that door. He had no idea what to expect inside. However, since Clovis detected that there was one enemy inside, he couldn’t just confess that he couldn’t sense him.
Fortunately, as soon as they got close, the leader of the Shadow Knights was able to feel the presence of someone inside and informed him about it.
“Alright… Roland, I hope you guard this door for us. We don’t want to be interrupted.” As Drake said this.
Then, he ordered the Shadow Knights to take the lead.
They soon heard a creaking sound as the door was opened.
They immediately inspected the room and saw a vampire resting near a window. 𝑖.𝘤ℴ𝘮
The vampire was a handsome and elegant sight.
He had pale and smooth skin with a faint blush on his cheeks. He had long and silky hair, with a dark and glossy color. He had sharp and refined features, with a high and noble nose.
He had piercing and captivating eyes with a deep and crimson color.
However, the scariest part of him was that he had a charming and seductive smile, with a pair of white and pointed fangs that attracted even the male Arcanists!
“Not good!” Roland muttered as he immediately closed the door as soon as the four squads led by Drake had entered.
This shocked Clovis for a moment as he didn’t expect that this veteran Arcanist would really abandon those people!
