Chapter 52 Vampire
The Axe of Vengeance caused some minor disturbances in New York, but it was nothing for a world-class city with a population of tens of millions. And just a few days later, the first host of the Axe of Vengeance had completed the contract.
Although the power of the Axe of Vengeance has been enhanced, its ability to be immune to physical attacks has been weakened. After all, the Axe of Vengeance was a ghost before, but now it has become a living person and can use the Avatar skill, which can only be immune to some physical attacks, such as fire explosions, but not all.
So after the first host completed the contract, he was besieged and killed by a large number of policemen, and the Axe of Vengeance left with his soul to find the next host.
In this city, there are too many people whose hearts are filled with rage for revenge. Richard is looking forward to the Axe of Vengeance condensing a high-level soul crystal for him in the near future.
Although the Axe of Vengeance is active in New York, it has nothing to do with ordinary people.
Richard accidentally saw a report in the Florida Post that in the past month, a Spider-Man wearing a red and blue tights appeared in Queens, New York, swinging between high-rise buildings, fighting crime and acting as a vigilante.
The newspaper even published a photo. Richard was confused. Is it really comfortable for a man to wear such tights? Won't it be a little tight? Or is he a pervert who likes the feeling of being a little tight?
In addition to this news, Richard was shocked by another message in the Florida Post: A black woman in her forties planned to steal a Christmas tree from the supermarket because Christmas was coming and she had no money to buy one.
However, the way this woman stole the Christmas tree was that she stuffed a two-meter-high Christmas tree into the vital passage of her lower body. She was eventually found unconscious due to heavy bleeding. When the police arrived at the scene, they found that the Christmas tree had been stuffed in for sixty centimeters.
Richard didn't understand this, but he respected it.
Richard originally planned to continue looking for those mysterious places like urban legends and continue to collect some high-level soul crystals. However, before he set out again, his wizard tower was invaded.
Two people sneaked into his manor under the cover of night, and avoided the poisonous gas and entanglement of the vines of the demonic mandragora, but were eventually trapped by blood thorns. These two guys were not ordinary people, but two vampires.
Richard discovered this when the two entered the manor, and did not attack, but just wanted to test whether there were any loopholes in the defense of the Mage Tower. The result was that the psychedelic pollen of the outer magic mandala was only effective against ordinary people and needed to be strengthened. The speed of activating vines was also a bit slow, and it was somewhat powerless against highly agile creatures.
The reason they were not eaten by the blood vines was purely because of Richard's order. The next day, the two guys were sent to Richard's laboratory.
Richard was quite familiar with the blood race, after all, he had dissected them many times. In the Arcane Academy, there were several vampires that had been dissected thousands of times.
After all, vampires are very tenacious. As long as they are not exposed to fire, strong acid, silver or sunlight, they are basically difficult to kill. Even if they are dissected into parts and reassembled, and fed with a little blood, they will recover quickly.
In order to save money, some arcane academies simply use vampire dissection instead of human anatomy in their classes. After all, in terms of organ structure, vampires and humans are very similar.
Richard also wrote a paper on vampires. When vampires encounter sunlight, they will burn violently and turn into ashes. The instantaneous temperature reaches 2,500 to 3,000 degrees, which is equivalent to the outer temperature of the fireball. So the question is, what causes a dead creature to react so violently with ultraviolet rays? This is one of the papers he published at the Arcane Academy. At that time, he also received a scholarship. This theory was used in many arcane technologies.
Richard interrogated the two vampires and got a lot of information. First of all, the vampires here are divided into pure-blood and half-blood, and the two caught by Richard are half-blood.
They were originally humans, but were later transformed into vampires by pure-blooded vampires. Their strength is average, with a strength of about 12 and an agility of 15. The two vampires came to Richard's manor because of the "life potion" that Richard had made in order to make money.
Among the wealthy people who bought the life potion, there were members of the Hagui tribe. They presented the life potion to the vampires. The vampires then discovered that these potions contained a large amount of life energy, which was very beneficial to them and could enhance their strength. That’s why they sent people to sneak in and wanted to capture Richard to serve them.
It was from these two vampires that Richard learned that vampires were very powerful. Many vampires had lived for hundreds or thousands of years, and they had accumulated huge wealth. At the same time, there was also a group of Hagui people in the government of the Lighthouse Country who cheered for them.
These Hagui people kneel down and lick the vampires because they want to become vampires themselves and gain immortality.
"A sheep chooses a hungry wolf to manage itself? What kind of train of thought is this?" Richard didn't understand this situation, but for the sake of immortality, it all made sense.
After all, those people don’t care whether they are vampires or not, they only care about their own rights and lives.
After knowing that the two vampires came for the life potion, Richard understood. The life potion was the werewolf blood that he had purified and selected, removing the toxins and other things in it, leaving only the purest life energy. This thing was a great tonic for vampires.
Although vampires are immortal, if they live long enough they will need to sleep for a long time before waking up. This thing can prevent vampires from sleeping for a long time.
"So, those vampires want to capture him to make life potions for them?"
If he had just crossed over, he would have retreated and avoided the vampire. But now his strength has recovered and the guardian has been made. If he retreated to the vampire, wouldn't his guardian golem be made in vain?
As for the Mage Tower, it wasn't that he looked down on those vampires. Without heavy weapons, they couldn't enter the Mage Tower. As for using heavy artillery and missiles, this was downtown New York, not the New York City where they were fighting aliens. Moreover, if he deployed the Guardians, even heavy artillery and missiles would be useless.
I used to think that soul crystals in this world would be difficult to obtain, but now it seems that the resources of soul crystals are quite abundant. If the souls of those vampires who have lived for thousands of years are extracted, they can definitely reach the level of high-level soul crystals.
Of course, the quality of this soul crystal should be relatively poor among the high-level soul crystals, but it should be more than enough to make an ordinary steel golem. How many blood-sucking stink bugs are there?
