Chapter 504: Chapter 504: An Unexpected Joy
Inside the coffin.
The potent scent of death condensed into tangible death scarabs in a specific area, frantically gnawing at the count’s body, completely suppressing his blood regeneration… The power of attribute suppression was fully displayed here.
The count’s body was decomposing at a rapid pace. Even his formidable regeneration abilities were futile as his blood essence was gradually annihilated in such an environment.
The count tried to resort to self-destruction by sacrificing a vast amount of blood, but to no avail… Every time any blood spilled or any disturbance occurred, the death qi inside the coffin would quickly surge and suppress the self-destructive impact.
A death technique of this caliber should not be something an apprentice knight could use.
“Wow! Lord Nicholas, your surprises are beyond imagination… Hahaha!”
Even when plunged into such a death zone,
Even when his body was under the ravage of the death scarabs,
Even when his respiratory tract was completely destroyed by the death qi,
The count was still laughing maniacally, reveling in this unanticipated thrill… The continuous surprises and unexpected circumstances since the start of the war gave the count a sense of ‘regained youth’.
As Death spread.
The count’s thoughts were drawn back to the time when he transformed from a heretic to a deviant demon due to his unique laughter attribute.
With the rapid change of his identity and status, the count came to possess his own manor for the first time.
The size of the manor then was nothing compared to the present, nor were there many blood-related servants… He was merely a lowly baron at the time.
The laughter attribute made the count fear nothing and behave insanely.
After acquiring basic strength and his blood-related army, the count began to invade areas populated by other evil beings and monsters, recklessly.
He even went out of his way to gather information about ‘humans,’ attempting to intercept some human convoys wandering outside, acquiring human servants through sneak attacks, and transforming them into closer blood descendants to accompany him.
The rate at which the count increased his blood-related population was thrice as fast as his peers… Even though someone once cautioned the count, he never heeded any warnings and became even more reckless.
Such mad behavior eventually attracted a knight squad ‘visit’ to his doorstep.
Within a short period, more than half of the blood descendants in the manor were wiped out.
Of course, the count himself was also an outstanding existence among the newborn deviant demons.
Pairing with the blood qi environment within the manor, the count could replenish life energy continuously during the fight. As long as he was given any chance to rest, he could regenerate extremely quickly.
Moreover, by using traps set inside the manor and a few ‘assembled’ special pets,
He managed to kill three formal knights in a row.
Only a female knight, brimming with divine radiance, remains. She was Olivia Hall, a rare holy sword knight from the [Order of Holy Knights].
Finally, good conquered evil.
The holy sword was thrust into the count’s heart, ceasing his life force.
Another holy sword was pierced into the count’s skull, destroying his consciousness.
The count was left dangling on the edge of death for decades.
The count, currently sealed in the coffin by Han Dong, was once again experiencing the same sensation… It reminded this madman of the sight of that night, the scene of his first defeat.
So proud,
So holy,
So beautiful,
So enraged was the golden-haired female knight as she plunged her holy sword into him. The scene kept haunting the count and he could not forget about it.
That feeling… it exhilarated him to no end.
“Hahaha~! Olivia the knight, please kill me again…”
Those were the count’s last words before his death.
Immediately afterward, his entire skull was devoured into nothing by the death scarabs.
…
[Death’s Verdict] has ended.
The reason Han Dong could wield and use this power of death was not merely reliant on the help of the ‘Crow God’.
The Crow God merely ‘boosted’ Han Dong, temporarily sending him into the realm of death.
To completely control the power of death, Han Dong must rely on himself.
First of all.
“Raven,” like the black cat, has historically been a symbol of death, fear, and misfortune. Using the power of the raven, one could touch death to a certain extent, but not enough for Han Dong to fully harness death in a short period of time.
Han Dong also possesses additional characteristics of death.
1. Plague, the major subject of Mysticism, is closely related to death itself.
2. Most importantly, the “Hand of Undying Priest.” This arm is closely related to death. It was cut off by Jane when Imhotep was resurrected, so it is closely related to death.
When Han Dong steps into the realm of death, this mummy arm reacts immediately, even subtly absorbing the “death qi,” trying to make the arm whole.
With this in mind.
Han Dong, in the pose of death, spares no effort to use the “Pharaoh’s Power” far beyond his current stage, and pays the price for all the energy the arm has.
Announcing death.
…
Creak!
When the coffin was opened by Han Dong.
Only the dried-up shell of a count was stored inside, completely disintegrating and crumbling like charcoal…
The heart at the center of the skeleton is completely dried up, but still maintains its ‘integrity’, faintly radiating red light.
Inside, there is the deviant demon nucleus crystal that symbolizes the count’s body.
Yes, from the beginning, Han Dong was planning on the count as the target for breaking the breed. After the Mysterious Yellow Robed Man found Han Dong in his dreams, Han Dong formulated such a plan.
Breaking the breed with a mature deviant demon is unique in Holy City.
“Cough, cough, cough…”
The coughing gets more serious.
However, Han Dong’s condition could be described as “extremely poor”.
In the realm of death, Han Dong is also like walking on the edge of a death cliff. Every step could potentially plunge him into the abyss of death.
If you take a look at Han Dong’s body, you will find that every organ in his body has decayed to the point of rottenness with his blood becoming thick and completely blackened, making him bear no difference from a mummy.
There is a certain amount of risk in breaking the breed with such a state of body.
This is the ‘price’ to pay for killing a mature deviant demon by exhausting all means.
Only a madman like Han Dong, who seeks ultimate power, would dare to deal with Death God.
Just before Han Dong was about to break the breed.
With some blurred vision, he faintly saw something being held in the count’s not completely withered right hand.
Upon closer look.
A segmented worm made of blood crystal stone was in fact being held in the count’s hand, it could not be swallowed by the count because of the confinement of the coffin.
“It’s the butler!”
Immediately, Han Dong was overjoyed.
Little did he expect, the butler, whose physical body was annihilated by Dumps and fled in crystal form, was actually captured by the count.
“It seems that the count’s original plan was to absorb the observer sent by the Blood God Sect… what a madman indeed!”
Heaven helps me.
My body is disintegrating continuously under the effect of the death field which may result in sudden death during the breed breaking process… If I can restore my body in advance via the butler’s life crystal.
The risk of breaking the breed would be minimized.
Perfect!!”
Fusion dissolution.
When Elder Miz Crow separates from Han Dong’s body, he also falls into an extremely weak state due to the influence of death… He can’t even speak, just stares at Han Dong with surprised eyes.
Before his body disintegrates, Han Dong swallows the blood crystal segmented worm in one gulp.
Then steps into the pharaoh’s coffin filled with death qi, lying next to the remains of the count.
In the absolutely quiet, unobstructed enclosed space performs breed breaking.
