272 Chapter 272
“Wait, Aldred,” Maverick called. “Stop the carriage for a minute.”
“What are you going to do?”
“Just wait.” Maverick jumped out of the carriage, free-falling from the sky, and entered a building. Not long after, a magician teleported him back into the carriage.
“Here. Take this.”
Aldred took the item. “It’s a blood sac.”
“Yes. It’s fresh from a virgin Diamond Rank.”
“I’d prefer to drink it directly from the source though…”
“Shut up and suck the blood already.” Mareona hit his head.
Aldred bit into the sac and sucked the blood. The moment when the blood entered his throat, a refreshing and warm sensation permeated through his whole body.
After a while, a notification appeared.
[You have evolved]
Baron Blood Vampire -> Viscount Blood Vampire
[Your blood manipulation skill has evolved to the second level.]
Blood formed out of nowhere and circled Aldred. His eyes turned crimson red as he pointed his palm at a distant bird. The bird was at least 8 kilometers away (about 4,9 miles).
He grasped the air. Suddenly, spikes of blood burst outward from the inside of the bird’s body. Then, its whole body exploded.
A group of giant birds roared like a dragon and charged at him.
Aldred smiled. “Perfect time. Let me test my new skills on you.”
He jumped out from the carriage, using the flame jet to charge back at the birds. Then, Aldred was gracefully moving his arms, sending out waves of blood forward. They formed a shape of a massive crescent and sliced the birds effortlessly.
Veins were shown around his eyes as he stared at the birds. In his sight, he could feel the birds’ beating hearts.
“Rupture.”
The birds’ hearts and veins burst. From the outside, the birds looked fine, so anyone would think that it was weird that this bird perished so suddenly.
But, even though all of these offensive abilities were great, nothing will beat his following skill.
“Blood Teleportation.”
A blood vortex engulfed him and he instantly appeared in the carriage as the vortex scattered into thin air.
“This is awesome! I can teleport now.”
They all clapped and congratulated his evolution.
“It’s not as potent as Stella’s teleportation power though.”
“But your divine dimension teleportation is stronger than anything I have ever seen.”
“You’re right, but it has some restrictions as well. Like I have to go to a certain place and set up the teleportation point before I can use it. Your power lets you teleport anywhere you want just by remembering the place or looking at it.”
“You will improve in no time.” Stella smiled.
“So what else can you do with Blood Manipulation?” Mary asked.
“I can do this.” Aldred reached out his palm and increased their blood flow. It increased their strength, speed, and reaction time by a significant margin. In other words, he could buff others.
“Oh, I almost forgot. This is the best skill I got from this evolution.”
Aldred closed his eyes and slammed his own chest. Blood aura burst out from his body, and now there were four Aldreds at the same time.
“Now I can have 4 clones!”
The ladies clapped excitedly while Maverick and Bartrem simply shrugged.
“Okay, let’s go to the shipyard and explore the sea!”
“Yeah!” The ladies toss their hands in the air.
As they were chatting about what they would do at the sea, the carriage trembled. Aldred frowned and looked outside only to be shocked by the sight of a gigantic golem.
The golem was so tall that it penetrated the cloud above and it even stood at the same height as the carriage… The carriage was flying high in the sky!
The golem had to be at least 600-800 meters tall (about 2,000-2,600 feet).
The golem moved slowly, but its mass looked so powerful that Aldred did not think speed would matter at this point.
On top of the golem’s head were three figures covered in dark robes. On the golem’s forehead was a gigantic crystal.
The crystal shone and fired a bright beam at the carriage.
“Crap!” Aldred leaped out of the carriage. “Blood Shield!”
The blood formed a shape of a giant shield and it blocked the beam of light. Aldred gritted his teeth as more and more blood siphoned out of his body to sustain the shield. The beam’s attack was stronger than he thought, and the longer the attack occurred, the more blood would come out of his own body.
Health Points: 3,354/3,669
He still had a lot of blood left, so this shouldn’t be a problem.
“Let me help you.” Sophia cast her buff spell.
[Durability increased by 80%]
[Health Regenerations increased by 200%]
Stella also cast her own spell to assist Aldred.
[Health Regenerations increased by 400%]
Stella, Sophia, Zafrina, and Rachel did everything they can to help.
Rachel struggled to repel the trajectory of the light, trying to bend it to the side to reduce the damage.
Zafrina siphoned her own blood to sustain the shield. 𝑖𝘳𝑎.𝒸ℴ𝘮
“What kind of power is this?” Mary frowned. “This is not the first time Aldred struggled against something, but he has become stronger than before.”
“That is a high-quality golem,” Stella said. “The magic crystal on its forehead was constructed with a high-level magic construct as well. In any case, that golem is very powerful and it could cost hundreds of billions to make.”
“Can you use your Diamond Rank power?”
“No. The ones that controlled the golems are Gold Rank. If I break the rules, I will vanish.”
“Don’t do that then,” Mary said. “Ugh… It infuriates me as I cannot do something to help.”
Aldred struggled more and more.
Health Points: 2,877/3,669
“Shit! I will die if this keeps going. I have to do something.”
Aldred dismissed the blood shield, summoned his Phantom Doomblade, and slashed the light beam.
The beam of light was cut in half only for half a second before it struck him directly.
Health Points: 1,600/3,669
“Fuck!” Aldred conjured his blood shield again. He was pissed off, but he at least received some benefits from that attack.
[World Refined Physique Lv. 1]
Upgrade points: 3,000/7,550
His physique finally got some points. But he couldn’t do it again unless he wanted to die.
“Aldred! Suck my blood!”
Aldred turned his head and nodded. He reached out with his hand, and blood came out of Mary’s pores before entering his body.
Health Points: 1,700/3,669
Health Points: 1,789/3,669
Health Points: 1,983/3,669
Health Points: 2,888/3,669
His health increased bit by bit and then Mira started to heal him while Mareona, Ivette, and Zafrina offered him to suck their blood as well.
His health points regenerated exponentially, and soon he was back at full health.
“It’s working!” Aldred shouted. But after a while, he realized that the light beam would not stop any time sooner.
Suddenly, the shoulders of the golems opened and a pillar was slowly erected from both shoulders. The pillars made a whizzing sound like an electric device, and magical particles surrounded them.
“Hahaha, behold! My ultimate creation!” Terrance shouted.
Using his godly eyes, Aldred could see those two pillars were a powerful treasure, but he didn’t know what they could do.
The next moment, the pillars shot out a wave of particles in every direction periodically. When the wave struck him, Aldred felt dizzy.
[You have been inflicted with Dizziness]
[You have been inflicted with Mana Drain]
[You have been inflicted with Slowness]
[You have been inflicted with Fatigue]
[You have been inflicted with Nausea]
[You have been inflicted with Blindness]
[You have been inflicted with Weakness]
Aldred’s vision darkened and his sight was limited to only a couple of meters, but his godly eyes shone a light into the darkness and removed them.
[You have removed the Darkness effect]
Aldred then controlled his own blood and removed all the debuffs one by one.
[You have removed Dizziness]
[You have removed…]
“He’s removing the debuffs!”
“Bah! I know you are useless Terrance! You said your Magical Construction will be potent and powerful.”
“Shut up! That kid is not normal! Activate the other magical construct!”
The chest of the golems slowly revealed a hole and numerous orbs flew out.
The orbs shone with bright light, and Aldred felt a terrifying power coming from them.
