Undying Warlord Chapter 273 Crushed

Chapter 273 Crushed

“Ahhh, this will be fun. I can smell it. Your fear. Entertain me a little bit, Blood Legion …don’t disappoint me! Let’s play a bit!”
Dilan started to get excited, and a smile of anticipation appeared on his face as he slashed the Blazing Serpentine Blade through the surrounding area once again
The stone foundation of the military base was easily cut through while Dolan continued to march on his path ahead.
With traces of mana used in a constant manner, numerous thunderous noises were created in fast succession.
“So that’s how you can use your abilities as well…” Ailee mumbled as if she understood something while observing Dilan’s actions from further away.
Williams and Kuhn looked at Ailee with the same confused expression.
‘What kind of enlightenment can you get from looking at your blood-crazy boss?!’
Kuhn was amazed at the calm and confident way in which Dilan approached the Vampires’ lair.
He looked charismatic and his eyes began to gleam in amazement.
“He is so amazing!”
“Yes, he is.” Williams agreed without hesitation.
However, his and Kuhn’s point of view about what made Dilan amazing was completely different.
‘He is a great leader. As long as Kuhn and Silas get used to killing humans, they can influence their friends and colleagues as well. Was Dilan aware of this while knowing that these two are the unofficial centerpieces of the Elementalists and Melee fighters?’
Williams, Kuhn, and Ailee were currently less than 500 meters away from the military base. They were standing near a small patch of large trees that were hidden from the sight of the Vampires.
“Should we get closer now?” Ailee asked, ignoring the comments of Kuhn and Williams entirely.
“Let’s wait until all of them are outside. Dilan should enjoy himself a little bit more.” William looked calmly in Dilan’s direction and his lips curled upward.
Mana swirled around the young man in a seemingly exciting way. The mana moved rapidly and exactly as Dilan intended to, giving him the advantage of being able to do whatever he wanted to.
The amount of mana Dilan’s body could hold may not be extremely high, and it was not even close to 100 Units.
However, Dilan knew how to utilize the little mana he had with scary accuracy.
Williams was far from reaching such a high control over mana, and he was pretty sure that Yvonne didn’t have such terrifying control over mana either.
If Williams were to be a jealous man, he would hate Dilan for how great he was.
After all, Williams had an occupation that heavily relied on the use of mana, while Dilan could fight without the use of mana as well.
He had more than enough passive abilities, special traits, and other advantages that allowed Dilan to fight however he wished to.
And seeing it over and over again kept the prideful behavior of many powerful Ascenders in Dilan’s group in check.
Dilan smiled at the sight of the Vampires, who began to emerge from the military base.
There were more Vampires than Clerens told him but this was something Dilan liked.
‘Close to 200 Vampires, 50 powerful ones, with six of them radiating extreme danger. 2000 servants and bloodthirsty Ascenders, all of them Tier-1.’ Dilan concluded, his sky blue eyes gleaming brightly.
He couldn’t sense the difference in the mana of humans and Ascenders, but the red glowing eyes and fangs of the Vampires were a pretty good indicator to determine their race.
The intimidating red glowing eyes caused the opposite effect on Dilan.
He inserted more strength in his legs with every step he took. The stone foundation below him began to show signs of cracking as thin lines formed around the spots he had stepped on.
Bloodlust could be seen in Dilan’s eyes followed by a smile that caused even the seasoned adult Vampires to frown deeply.
“A human?” One of the younger Vampires asked with visible confusion.
‘A human with so much bloodlust and killing intent…’ This didn’t make any sense, but it was far from reality.
Dilan stood right in front of them, less than 200 meters away from the closest member of the Blood Legion.
“Who are you, and what do you want…from us?”
Just when someone stepped forward to question Dilan, and find out about his identity, Dilan disappeared.
The stone foundation he had been standing on burst open as a thunderous sound that was much louder than the ones before reverberated through the surrounding area. Everyone could hear it but Dilan had already vanished.
A purple flash emerged right in front of the Vampire, who had spoken to Dilan. His body stiffened as Dilan’s crazed expression appeared in front of him, only for him to realize that he felt much lighter than before.
His eyes moved to the ground. They widened in shock as the Vampire realized that his body had been cut through. His lower body was already lying on the ground, while his upper body was hovering in the air.
The Vampire’s guts spilled onto the ground, and it was only now that he sensed Dilan’s left hand that was holding his head tightly.
Dilan had moved so fast that the Vampire hadn’t noticed anything.
“You don’t need to know who I am. The dead might not be able to talk, but explaining my identity to everyone, or what I want from y’all is too burdensome. Just die for me, thanks.” His voice was calm and it felt like he talked about some light topics and not their apparent deaths.
While he talked, the other Vampires didn’t remain idle either. They wanted to move, and it didn’t matter to them what Dilan would do to their brethren.
When Dilan understood this, he couldn’t even smile. His expression turned serious and the joy vanished from his eyes.
“Well, that is a bit disappointing. I didn’t expect a tight-knit connection between each of your kind, but to think that you guys don’t care about what happens to him.” Dilan’s tone had changed but it was only a moment later that he began to smile once again.
However, this time, his smile turned into that of maniacal glee, making him look even more demonic than before.
“Well, whatever. In death, y’all will be together. Just let me enjoy life a bit.” That being said, a loud crackling noise could be heard, followed by a painful scream.
The Vampire, who was in Dilan’s hand screamed out in unbearable pain. He tried to wriggle himself out of Dilan’s iron-like grasp but it was impossible. With a smooth motion, Dilan crushed the skull of the Vampire he had been holding.
Brain mass splattered through the surroundings, but Dilan didn’t do anything except smile in ecstasy.
[ Blood Essence of Tier-1 Level 16 Blood Warrior(Vampire) has been absorbed→ +0.1 Strength, +1.1 Health]
The Blood Essence of the Vampire was immediately absorbed as per Dilan’s will. It filled his entire body, and invigorated him thoroughly.
Dilan’s smile widened at the addictive sensation of Essence flooding his body. It had been long since he could feel the potency of Essence. The Cursed Blessing [Will of the Primordial] and his occupational passive ability [Warrior’s Unparalleled Physique] prevented him from feeling the potency of most Essence crystals simply due to the fact that his Essence pool received only one-twentieth of the Essence he absorbed.
“Arghh” Dilan exclaimed, licking his dry lips. He had gotten the taste of the Vampire’s Blood Essence, and it made him feel ecstatic.
The adrenaline pumped through his body, and his hands began to tremble in excitement.
It was time to hunt, time for Dilan to let loose and to fight in an unrestrained manner.
His eyes gleamed brightly as he cast a glance at the other Vampires while killing intent was leaking from his body.
Only moments after the corpse of the killed Vampire was crushed on the ground like a wet sack of rice, Dilan disappeared once again.
However, this time around, the Vampires were prepared. Their crimson eyes glowed brightly, and their occupational abilities were unleashed, which in turn enhanced their eyesight, hearing, and other senses drastically.
Their reflexes improved drastically as well.
But even after all the enhancements they had received, the only thing they could perceive was Dilan’s outlines.
“Too slow.”
A fraction of a second later, Dilan’s speed accelerated once again. He disappeared from the eyes of the ordinary Vampires, only to appear in front of one of the six truly powerful beings.
“You are the first!”
