Chapter 834 Yummm!
Hmmm? Lan Deming was confused.
Something was wrong.
Why did he not feel any pain? Was this the life flashing across his eyes in slow motion that usually occurs before death?
But still, something felt off. The vampires should have ripped apart his head by now. It did not make sense.
He flashed his eyes open to see why the death god hadn't opened his door for him. However, instead of the death god, there was some other god in front of him at the moment.
At least, that was the thought that came into his mind as he watched a familiar figure slice the heads of five of the vampires with a single movement of his sword.
Bones crunched, and blood splattered everywhere. Everyone turned to witness this scary scene as the vampires growled loudly in anger, seeing their brethren fall like dummies.
In the midst of this blood and gore stood a single person who, in a calm and collected manner, walked towards Deming. "Are you alright?"
"Mr… Mr Liam." Deming stared at the kindly smiling person in shock.
This was the same man who had terrorized them before, but all he could think of at this moment was how he had saved him without even saying a word about it.
This kindness and this warmth… this person in front of him was a good person. He had unnecessarily misunderstood him. No, their whole group had unnecessarily misunderstood him!
He had come to their aid like a hero at the last minute and saved them all!
The next second… Liam opened his mouth, shattering all of these thoughts.
"Sorry I didn't jump in sooner. That's my bad. I had to use you guys as bait to lure out everything in the vicinity. Otherwise, it would be a total waste of time to go after these things one by one."
Liam let out a yawn and stretched his hands as if he was bored out of his wits. "Thanks to them, I had to waste a whole day waiting for this. Now, let's get this over this."
Lan Deming's face twitched. What did he just say…? Bait?
However, Liam was already gone. After forging soul minions out of the five he had just killed, he swiftly moved on to the next group.
"Lots of new materials! Nice!" Liam smiled. He really looked forward to how these high-quality vampire soul minions were going to fare.
Unfortunately, he couldn't discern much from the previous batch. They were simply grunts and didn't have anything valuable for him. Their souls were also not that different from ordinary humans.
The only information he got was about this raid that was happening tonight. He did not think it would amount to much. But this time, it looked like some interesting specimens had indeed shown up.
He was very curious to see how this entire vampire cluster formed in the first place, especially so soon after the apocalypse began!
Liam particularly looked at the two twins, who seemed to be stronger than the others, as he licked his lips. What surprises did these two hold?
The vampiresses saw this, and suddenly a chill crept up their spines. They felt completely creeped out as they felt Liam's burning gaze on their bodies, and they could tell for a fact that he was not looking at them sexually.
They could also see the way Liam was killing everyone and everything around him so casually. Just how much strength one had to possess to slaughter their way through this crowd? What the hell was his level?
In reality, he had slowed down as he was creating soul minions along the way, but they did not know that. Yet.
What they knew was what they saw with their own eyes. Within the span of a second, about a couple dozen of vampires dropped dead like flies. This enemy was strong.
"NOOOOO!" Screamed the vampiress named Ysabelle. She couldn't handle watching her entire army utterly destroyed right in front of her eyes.
She was the one who had scouted out this entire place and had planned to take charge of this livestock.
Everything was fine. Everything was going her way, but that was… two seconds ago. From where did this madman show up? How was he so strong?
The only person whom she could compare him was… no, perhaps this man was even stronger?
Her seductive eyes widened in panic as all traces of her arrogance and attitude that she had earlier were completely wiped away. There was now only fear.
She looked up at Alice, and the two vampiresses nodded at the same time. This was not an enemy they could face.
Thinking that they were walking into a group of sheep, they had entered a monster's den. They needed to leave. They needed to RUN! RIGHT NOW!
The twins did not hesitate and immediately took off. However, this was simply wishful thinking on their part. Before they could even take a few steps forward, a strong scent reached their noses. Liam was right behind them.
However, instead of fear, all they felt was heat. They were assaulted by an intoxicating delicious aroma that made them delirious!f𝘳e𝒆w𝗲𝐛𝓃𝐨νel.co𝘮
This was none other than the blood of the man who had undoubtedly come to claim their lives.
Ysabella stopped. She couldn't control her impulses. Her brain asked her to run, but her body wanted a taste of this blood. It was nothing like she had ever felt before.
Blood like this… slurp! Was of the highest quality! Slurp!
She licked her lips and turned around, her crimson eyes shimmering brightly in the dark of the night. There was a sort of madness on her face. She was ready to do anything for this blood.
She glared like a predator as she searched for the source of this blood, but she only barely got a glimpse before her head rolled slid from her body, rolling down and falling onto the ground with a thud.
"Ysabella!!!" Alice shouted. She screamed in agony as she felt the pain of her twin's death.
"Don't worry. I am not heartless enough to separate you from your sister." Liam chuckled.
She sprinted forward, growling angrily at the conceited foe, but only her head flew forward as her body slumped down lifelessly.
Lan Deming stared at Liam in disbelief. Even the twins did not give him any issues. They were swatted to death without him sparing a single drop of sweat.
Every single vampire on the battlefield also had the same expression as they watched their masters lie lifelessly on the ground. They were dead? Just like that?
Their corpses had already become decayed and desiccated, turning into ashes. They had really died for good!
How could this be true? They were supposed to rule this land. They were supposed to build an empire, but… they died just like that?
Tonight wasn't even supposed to be a difficult mission. They were merely raiding a bunch of weaklings. How did everything change?
All the vampires trembled as they watched the untouchable tyrant turn around. As his gaze swept past them, they could feel their lives already slipping away from their bodies.
It was all over. They were going to die. They knew it.
Lan Deming slumped onto the ground in terror, finally realizing the difference between himself and the god that was in front of him. What was that he told his father?
He would train hard and become strong enough to face him in a week? How laughable! He really was a fool.
Lan Fen also stood frozen on the spot, staring at Liam in shock.
Liam, meanwhile, casually went around and took care of the rest of the minions.
"Oh! How is it going? Are these things weak against divine attacks?" He showed up near Alex and cleared off the six vampires she was taking down single-handedly, forging them into soul minions.
He then popped up near Shin Soo and took care of the four he was fighting against.
Liam continued his rounds, and soon, within a minute, the entire vampire gang was completely erased from the vicinity.
Just as he finished his business, from a distance, a white fox carried over a bunch of almost dead, beaten to a pulp vampires.
Kyuuuu!
"Master, I found these guys lurking."
Luna adorably smiled as she dropped all the bodies next to Liam.
"Good job, Luna." Liam chuckled as he took care of this set of vampires as well and created another bunch of soul minions.
"Is that it?" He clicked his tongue as if he were a little disappointed and then looked around at the deathly silent city. He then sighed with a smile. "Let's go back first."
Alex and the rest of the group went back first, talking to Liam about the new dungeon.
The others stared at each other for a while before doing the same thing. Under the cover of darkness, they listlessly packed up and went back to their gated community.
