The Villain’s Cheat Code: When a Gamer Becomes the Evil God’s Sidekick-Chapter 369: My Head Hurts, Time for a Brain Growth
Blood storms whirled through the high sky as countless crimson bats wove between the dense magical arrays. Like a rain of blood, they plummeted downward with piercing shrieks, diving repeatedly at Viktor.
BANG!
The ground around Viktor began to swell, revealing complex patterns and intricate magical formation arrays. Multiple triangles merged together, and from within the array, a giant toad struggled to manifest its form.
Dense water magic poured from its mouth, pressing down upon the earth. In the blink of an eye, several deep crevices split open in the ground.
Surging water burst forth, quickly transforming into several writhing water serpents that began spinning rapidly around Viktor.
The white foam and spray created by the colliding water currents caught all the incoming blood bats in their chaotic flows. Under the intense pressure, those blood bats quickly burst apart.
The moment all the bats were blocked, magical power gathered in Viktor's eyes as he fixed his gaze on Laurien within the blood tornado.
Stepping on waves conjured from magical power, he charged straight forward.
Before Count Laurien could regather his blood to release his power, several pale stripes had already appeared on Viktor's trailing coat.
An invisible whirlwind lifted his form, colliding with the blood tornado.
Seeing Viktor break through the blood storm and charge towards him, Count Laurien's crimson eyes suddenly widened. A blade of blood formed in his hand as he swept it horizontally forward.
Viktor's figure tilted to dodge the cold blood light.
In an instant, a purple-black lightning arm violently grew out from his trailing coat. In the center of that palm, purple lightning entwined around the fingers as it stabbed toward Count Laurien.
Count Laurien's body pulled back to dodge the lightning claw strike, then suddenly spat out a thick pillar of blood toward Viktor.
Viktor's body transformed into wind, ethereally flashing past to avoid Laurien's attack.
Then he landed back on the ground.
After one round of combat, some distance had opened between them.
Viktor habitually checked his magic power level.
That whole series of frequent dodging and magic transformations - without Vega, he would have surely depleted his mana bar already.
But now it had almost no impact.
Vega's presence was always his best support when challenging bosses alone.
He no longer had to worry about any magic power consumption or calculate frequent mana costs - he could boldly release all kinds of skills.
Indeed, in the game, Count Laurien was a story boss unit.
He had two forms.
In his Kingdom Noble form, Laurien concealed his vampire characteristics.
As a warrior in this state, he was only level 45.
But when the kingdom updated its vampire expansion content, Count Laurien would serve as the guide, introducing players to the concept of vampires.
He was the first vampire story boss that players would challenge.
Vampire Prince - Laurien.
Among vampires, there existed strict hierarchical divisions, with ranks like Prince, Elder, Lord and many others.
Because the vampire race was vast, even lower-tier vampires and ghouls were members of the vampire race.
But only Princes ranked at the highest tier of vampires, and only Princes could skip the vampire stage to directly grant others the power to transform into vampires.
Princes were, to date, the strongest and purest of vampires.
At this moment, the magical array behind Viktor began rotating again, countless magical patterns gathering together.
The surrounding air also became thick and heavy.
A flash of azure appeared in Viktor's eyes as his magical power rapidly drained.
Along with his intensely consuming magic power, powerful magical forces violently gathered between him and Laurien.
[Fourth-tier Magic: Comet Flow]
The next second, crystal blue rushing water poured forth from the array, violently piercing through the rotating storm.
The surroundings seemed to sink into a dead sea, with withered viscous air waves shattering the violent blood-colored light spots, charging unstoppably toward Count Laurien.
Count Laurien's eyes flashed blood-red as three pairs of wings behind him moved to block his front, completely stopping the incoming massive magical power.
The comet-like azure impact washed over his body and continued toward the sky beyond the blood moon.
After leaving a brief trail in the sky, it gradually dissipated.
Then Laurien's three pairs of blood wings suddenly flapped, transforming into blood afterimages as they charged fiercely at Viktor.
Blood mist coiled around his hands as his body became an afterimage, attacking violently toward Viktor.
Viktor's body was wrapped in various magical powers that burst forth together as he stomped the ground to pieces, transforming into an afterimage charging toward Count Laurien.
The two figures collided at high speed within the blood storm, with flashing impacts constantly exploding outward.
One second they were on the left, the next second magical explosions would appear on the right.
Those present watched the battle flashing with phosphorescence in the sky, dumbfounded.
This intense combat far exceeded their understanding - they couldn't even track the rapidly moving afterimages of the two sides.
The terrible power of these two was like that of doomsday makers.
Although the initial explosives had already turned this place to ruins, the fierce combat between the two seemed as if it would level this place once again.
However, only Aurelianne watched the battle in silence.
Although she could vaguely see that Teacher Viktor had a slight advantage in the intense battle, this advantage hadn't translated into substantial victory.
As a vampire, Count Laurien's self-healing ability had reached an incredibly terrifying, even inconceivable level.
His body was like cast iron - even Viktor's magic couldn't easily pierce it.
Even those angels in the sky above the canyon earlier weren't as powerful as Count Laurien.
Even if Viktor's magic pierced his body, the wounds would heal instantly in just a second.
Moreover, Count Laurien was continuously growing stronger.
Indeed, all of Shulbon was supplying him with blood, making his body more powerful and his strength gradually increasing.
The moon in the sky grew increasingly deep red, almost turning an eerie black.
This meant time was approaching midnight.
This was the most terrifying thing.
Once midnight struck, all residents in the territory would be transformed into dried corpses, becoming frenzied vampires.
And Count Laurien would receive the blood of everyone in the territory.
All this was to allow Pricis in the sky to complete her transformation.
Everyone realized this point.
Those kingdom nobles looked at the crimson blood moon, clenching their fists in regret and hatred, while the skeletal bones also gritted their teeth, showing great unwillingness.
This was now the critical moment. Laurien's actions had seriously affected the kingdom's safety.
But at this time, of the only two people who could protect the kingdom, one was the king.
But he was the culprit behind this incident.
And the other was Grand Duke Balo.
Yet he still hadn't appeared.
If Grand Duke Balo showed up, encountering this situation, he could use his power alone to turn all the people in the territory into undead.
Preventing them from being absorbed by Laurien's blood energy and turning into dried corpses.
But now it was too late to send someone to seek Grand Duke Balo's help - Shulbon was far from Balo County territory.
By the time Grand Duke Balo arrived, everyone in Shulbon might have already become vampires.
Grand Duke Balo could only helplessly collect the souls of those who had become vampires.
Then, the entire city of Shulbon would become a city of undead.
Of course, Aurelianne had thought about resolving this herself.
But her power was far too weak.
Moreover, she hadn't mastered enough of the domain of the dead to accommodate so many people from Shulbon.
Could they only watch helplessly as Count Laurien devoured all the blood energy of Shulbon's people?
Aurelianne looked up, her gaze falling on the flashing battle between Viktor and Count Laurien.
Heterochromatic magic and blood energy constantly collided, raising waves of air as the sky trembled.
The two were still entangled in the air, still colliding beneath the sky.
Pricis in the sky remained as quiet as before, seemingly oblivious to the great battle around her.
A faint crimson thread constantly connected her to that blood moon.
Although the blood moon continued turning crimson, most didn't flow into Count Laurien's body, but instead poured into Pricis's body along the thread.
Suddenly, Aurelianne felt puzzled.
Why hadn't Teacher Viktor attacked Pricis at all?
Once midnight arrived, Pricis would complete her transformation.
By then, with all of Shulbon's blood, she too would become an extremely powerful vampire.
She would also become Count Laurien's support.
Since Laurien's goal was to resurrect Pricis,
Then destroying the blood moon would secure final victory.
Rather than constantly being entangled with Laurien in the high sky, with the battle making no progress.
As a vampire, Count Laurien's self-healing ability was terrifyingly powerful - Teacher Viktor must know this.
Suddenly, inspiration flashed through Aurelianne's mind, as if some insight burst forth.
Wait.
Wasn't Pricis undead?
If the Pricis in the sky was really her,
Then who was the Pricis she had seen before?
But quickly, from the sky above, a series of violent explosions interrupted Aurelianne's thoughts.
With the explosion sounds, the two once again opened distance between them.
And this time, five different giant magical arrays instantly rose behind Viktor.
Five differently colored magical arrays quickly constructed, and a huge array that held up the sky gradually appeared above.
Countless patterns intersected and merged, heavy runes shuttled back and forth, completely filling the array's edges.
Viktor hovered in the air, five different colored stripes flowing and weaving behind him.
"Well then, how about trying this?"
Huge heterochromatic rings appeared around him, with various runes engraved in the center of the array.
[Fourth-tier Magic: Rage Flame Incineration]
[Fourth-tier Magic: Sea Reversal Sky]
[Fourth-tier Magic: Chaos Seal Wind]
[Fourth-tier Magic: Repelling Wood Snake]
[Fourth-tier Magic: Thunder Rolling Ten Thousand]
In the blink of an eye, five different magics merged together.
A magic wall as tall as a city wall instantly flashed into existence, extending hundreds of feet high into the sky.
The vast and surging magical power was like a broken dam flood, swallowing the blood color of heaven and earth.
Even the crimson-glowing round moon in the sky was obscured by this heavy magical power, nearly dimming.
In the vast space, only sinuous writhing magical power remained, impacting toward Count Laurien.
