Shadow of the Beautiful World

boom

On the battlefield on the border of hell, after the legendary vampire finished his last words, his body completely exploded in a burst of flame-like light, like a detonated human bomb, and those bloody bones fell in the explosion One place, it looks very spectacular.

This happened so fast that Merlin came to Dracula's side in a blink of an eye, but he could only watch those bones scattered on the ground at the edge of hell.

He killed himself?

Liana turned her head to look at Elsa, and Miss Bloodstone shook her head with an ugly expression.

No, no, he just launched the final blow just like the previous several deaths.

kuang

After Dracula blew himself up, the gloomy blood river phantom did not disappear. This legendary ability that was out of control was also released from the shackles because of Dracula's death. A dangerous force exploded in the sky at the border of hell.

Just like a real star river rising into the sky, the clear roar of flowing water rang in the ears of everyone and all the demons. As they raised their heads and stared, the flowing blood river seemed to dry up slowly. The eyes are torn apart.

The terrifying power generated when the blood river dissipated collided with the space at the border of hell, tearing open a crack like an eye in the sky.

Phantom, countless blood phantoms rushed out of the broken blood river, some of them rushed to the demon army on the ground, and some of them rushed into the other side along the crack that was blown out.

Merlin looked at a crack that was blasted in the sky, he looked at Liana, and he said:

On the other side of the crack, where is it?

Liana rubbed her forehead, and while commanding the demons to fight against the irrational blood phantoms, she looked up at the crack created by the exploding blood river. After a while, she said regretfully:

It should be where you guys came from. Before he died, that guy said it was the night of long teeth. What is night of long teeth?

Facing Liana's question, Elsa put away the crystal warhammer and said softly with a serious face:

The night of teething is a very bad, very bad thing.

Liana, kill these illusions.

Merlin also escaped from the half-demon state. He took Elsa's hand and said to Liana:

It's an emergency, we have to go back to the other side.

Okay, you guys go back, I'll take care of the mess here.

Liana waved her hand, she winked at Merlin, and she said:

Don't forget, we still have a promise.

Forget it.

Merlin said calmly:

Be your queen of the frontier well. After the matter is over, I will take you to see your brother.

After finishing speaking, Merlin took Elsa and left the battlefield with a teleportation spell, and came to the nearest door. The moment he opened the door, Elsa suddenly asked:

What promise do you have with that little girl? I seem to feel that I have another competitor

It's nothing, don't think too much about it.

Merlin said blankly:

She's not my type, and, is it appropriate to say this now? There's a teething night out there.

I'm just talking.

Elsa walked into the opened door, and she said to Merlin:

It's really worrying to have a boyfriend with such a good relationship with women.

Then you have to keep an eye on him, Miss Bloodstone.

Merlin followed Elsa into the mysterious room, he closed the door casually, and said:

Don't give him another chance to indulge.

How is this going?

In the command room of the Trident headquarters, the phone suddenly rang like loud music. Fury stood in front of the podium and looked at the nine screens juxtaposed in front of him. The positions of the two entrances and exits suffered fierce attacks almost at the same time.

Those figures dancing wildly in the air and on the ground like a gust of wind caused a lot of trouble to the defenders, but wizards helped to hold their positions, allowing the positions on Todd Hill and the New York Garbage Disposal Site to maintain their counterattacks, while the fleet in the open sea On the battlefield, the situation has become very bad.

The bullets and explosive flames shot out from the ship could not harm those extremely fast shadows at all. Only the holy silver bullets equipped by the special reaction force guarding the gate of Sulfur Harbor could barely force back the red tide. attacking enemy.

This made Fury feel bad. Just a few minutes ago, everything was going smoothly, but when an eye-like slit suddenly appeared in the sky of Sulfur Harbor, things took a turn for the worse.

Now the entire Sulfur Port has turned into a chaotic battlefield under the impact of those blood-colored phantoms. The number of guys who can't see their faces, like shadows, is increasing rapidly, and they have spread almost in every corner of the city. inside.

Those aliens are being slaughtered, which is not a good sign.

Fury wants the Takeover to be a self-reliant, living, alien city, not a dead city filled with corpses and ghosts.

Can anyone tell me where these guys come from?

People are always wary of things they don't understand, and so is Fury. He grabbed the communicator and shouted to the Aegis demon hunters on the other end of the communicator:

Where is Merlin? And where is Blade? Isn't he our mysterious affairs consultant? Let him give me an answer!

Fry, don't worry, the situation is not as bad as you think.

Merlin's voice appeared behind Fury in the next moment. The director turned his head and saw Merlin and Elsa who were pushing the door open and entering the command room. The director pointed to the screen behind him and said to Merlin:

That is how the matter?

It was a vision of Dracula out of control.

Merlin pushed his glasses and said to Fury:

Don't worry, Dracula is dead, and the biggest trouble has been solved.

Look at the screen in front of you, Merlin!

Fury said:

This group of bloody shadows are still destroying our defense line. Every second, people are down, and then you tell me that the problem is solved? Damn!

The illusion of the blood river is not an entity, it is just a phantom simulated by power. After losing Dracula's manipulation, it no longer has the characteristics of a vampire. Don't worry, Fury, those who are scratched will not become vampires. .”

Merlin comforted Fury. He walked to the podium, activated his communicator, and gave orders in an orderly manner:

Guys, Dracula has been resealed by Master Letho and his friends! We won, but now we have more important things to do.

Blade, go to the Sorcerer's Association in Sulfur Port and ask them to block the three exits from Sulfur Port and the outside world.

Gattler, please take s.d. agents who can still act to support our fleet, and send them the holy water we prepared in advance, and let them use the diluted holy water to block the breakthrough of the phantom.

Miss Nissa, I heard what you did before, I don't comment, but now I need your family's knights to attract the attention of those phantoms, and lead them to the ruins in the northwest corner of the city, those phantoms are now With no one to control and only acting on instinct, they should be easily attracted.

The rest of the Aegis demon hunters must go to the ruins to gather! I should have taught you how to use the Arden Sign to construct a large-scale spirit-binding barrier. Coulson, you will be in charge of manipulating the spirit before I arrive at Sulfur Harbor. Barrier, trap those phantoms! The hellfire driven by Satana and His Excellency Damon can easily destroy those trapped phantoms.

receive!

The sound of the reply sounded in Merlin's communicator. After arranging the order, Merlin looked back at Fury, and he said:

Fury, come and give the order.

Let our special response force set up temporary containment points in the blocks we received, and house those aliens who were frightened by this sudden tusk night. The more aliens they receive, the more we will do to Sulfur Harbor It will be easier to take over.

okay.

Fury saw that Merlin looked confident, and his emotions stabilized. While issuing orders on his communication channel, he asked Merlin and Elsa beside him:

What is the night of the teeth?

You could read it as an ancient tradition of vampires.

Merlin explained to his boss:

In ancient times, even in the middle and late Middle Ages, vampires would hold a 'hunting match' every few decades on a specific day, usually at night. In that night, all the shackles for vampires, Including the Nightcrawler Treaty will be invalidated, and vampires can indulge in wanton hunting, as long as they can find prey.

It was a cruel ritual.

Elsa went on to say:

Every night of fangs, several human cities will be breached, and countless people will die, but in fact, for vampires, the most important purpose of the night of fangs is not to satisfy the distorted desire to suck blood, but to transform more people through hunting. of the same kind, to make the vampire population that has difficulty procreating flourish.

However, this barbaric practice was completely banned at the end of the Middle Ages under the strong intervention of demon hunters and wizards. Up to now, the Night of the Long Fang is a disaster that only exists in legends.

Then this time?

Fury nodded. He is still very interested in these heterogeneous little knowledge. While watching the developments on the screen, he asked:

You said it was caused by Dracula?

Yes.

Merlin says:

Dracula died. Before he died, he detonated his own blood river and released a huge number of blood phantoms as his exit ceremony.

Fury, the huge amount of holy water we made in advance is prepared for this time.

So, you have already prepared?

Fury looked at the screen in front of him. On the screen, a group of Blood Knights of the High Family riding armored horses were running wildly on the road of Brimstone Harbor. Behind them in the sky and on the ground, thousands of The scarlet phantom of the is chasing them.

On another screen, in the northwest corner of Brimstone Harbor, among the ruins bombed by tactical missiles, the Aegis demon hunters are preparing for a large-scale ceremony together.

Purple beams of light danced around the ruins, forming a barrier like a hexagonal array.

Yes, I am prepared.

Merlin frowned and said to Fury:

But now the number of these illusions is a bit beyond my imagination. That lunatic released at least one-seventh of the illusions, 500,000 to 600,000. We should be thankful that most of the illusions are trapped in the border of hell, but in that Before the damaged crack is repaired, there will be a steady stream of phantoms rushing from there.

Then do something!

Fury said seriously:

We promise to protect those aliens. Although it is a slogan, we have to take some practical actions to show our attitude. Once Sulfur Port becomes a dead city, our actions will be meaningless.

That's a dimensional rift, Fury.

Merlin says:

We can only wait for it to heal slowly, at least among the people I know, no one can

There's someone there!

Before Merlin finished speaking, Agent Hill, who was monitoring the situation on the side, let out an exclamation, and Merlin, Elsa, and Fury's eyes fell on the screen in front of them.

Sure enough, as Hill said, at the edge of the dimensional rift in the sky of Sulfur Harbor, a slender figure was hovering there. While swinging her sword, she easily killed the blood phantom that crossed the dimensional rift and rushed into Sulfur Harbor. He raised his hand, as if erasing something, under the gaze of the three of them, the eye-like crack in the sky was healed bit by bit.

Who is that?

Fury asked in surprise:

Is that also the helper you found?

No, I don't know her.

Merlin frowned and looked at the slender woman in a white top, brown breeches, blood stains, long white hair, ponytail, and two swords on her back. He said:

But her image seems familiar.

swish

Elsa stared at the back for several seconds, then took out her Gwent card from her pocket, rummaged through it, and after a few seconds, she handed a golden card to Merlin, and she said:

It's the daughter of Shiriya White Wolf. She can travel through dimensions, and she can naturally repair it.

Um?

Merlin took the Gwent card, looked at the image of the woman on the card, and then looked at the woman on the screen who was repairing the dimensional rift. Sure enough, from the back, her clothes and equipment were exactly the same as the image on the card. .

Why did Cilia appear here? Did Master Geralt ask her to come?

Merlin said something softly, but now he is not entangled in the answer to this matter, no matter why the legendary Xilia came, she is here to help.

The next moment, Merlin turned on the communicator and said to his subordinates and comrades:

Master Lei Suo's friends are helping to repair the dimensional rift, the situation has been contained, hold on, everyone, I will be there soon.

After speaking, he turned to Elsa and said:

Come on, let's deal with the last trouble, and

Go and meet this legendary 'Daughter of the Elder'.
