MMORPG : Rebirth Of The Strongest Vampire God
Chapter 222: Finishing Nimli" Why are you not burning from the flames? WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU? " Nimli asked again, this time sounding paranoid as he grabbed his spear with trembling hands and pointed it at Max with fear evident in his cowering posture.
Max smiled at the question, apparently he had been waiting a very long time for someone to ask him exactly this, as he said " Me? Well I'm just a coward "
Saying so Max used [ Sword Intent ] as his blood sucker became covered in a pale red aura before using [ Overhead Slash ]
Nimli blocked the attack, but it was clear in his eyes that he was psychologically rattled, he had lost his tier3 friend and over 60% of his HP bar fighting this absolute freak and his panic had started to get the best of him as he made reckless attacks.
Kremeth always said to Max, that the real quality of a warrior was displayed when his back was against the wall, if the pressure made a warrior crumble then it was most likely a man who had never faced life-death challenges before and had smooth sailing in life.
Only those who had been forged through fire and difficulty had the composure to fight out of tough situations and think critically even though their backs are against the wall.
Unfortunately, Nimli was not one such warrior.
He had the appearance of a macho man, with tattoos and piercings all around, but when pressured while facing an equally strong enemy, his weak foundation began to glaringly show.
Max found blocking Nimli easier as his swings with the spear became wider and wider.
Although they were wildly powerful, they lacked the precision and deathly accuracy of his previous attacks.
His desperation made him resort to using brutality rather than technique, hoping that he would be able to overpower Max and turn this fight around.
When nothing seemed to work, Nimli decided to bet everything on his strongest attack as he unleashed the tier4 attack in his arsenal [ Spear Of Corrosion ]
Black Corrosive Aura began converging into the spear, as Nimli took an extremely defensive stance, trying to gather as much power as he could for the attack.
A torrent of mana burst outwards from his body as Max instinctively took two steps backwards, understanding full well that this would be an attack that he would be hard pressed to block.
Max grinned and summoned his Netherbeasts once again, ordering them to stack up in front of him as 15 beasts stood between himself and Nimli as a meat shield by the time he launched his attack.
Nimli threw his Corrosive spear and it sliced through 13 beasts as if they were made of butter, before lodging itself into the body of the 14th one, unable to go fully through.
The powerful tier 4 attack took the lives of 14 sturdy tier 2 Beasts, corroding their corpses with its deathly aura, but was not powerful enough to reach Max who had made brilliant use of his summons.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCaught without his weapon, Nimli was absolutely defenceless as Max grinned and said " Gotcha "
Dropping his sword, Max raised both his hands above his head as he activated the [ Blood Manipulation ] skill.
Blades of blood arose from all around the battlefield, some 2000 in total, as Max directed them all towards Nimli who no longer had his spear in hand to defend himself.
What followed was an absolute bloodbath as small blades kept mincing Nimli's body from all around.
-459
-450
-430
-420
-200
-650
-400
Nimli's HP bar dropped rapidly as he balled up on the ground, trying to cover his vitals and beg for mercy, but Max was in no mood to show any.
After two or so minutes of carving his flesh up, Nimli was bleeding from nearly 500 cuts in his body and was tethering at the edge of life and death.
It was at this moment that Max finally stopped his flurry of attacks and walked upto the defeated warrior.
" Please, spare my life, I'll become your slave if you want me to, but please don't kill me " Nimli begged Max as he grabbed onto his knees and prostrated himself on the ground.
Max placed his hands over Nimli's shoulder and then looked the man dead in the eye as he said " You see, I know the Kingsman clan will come and inspect this battlefield later on.
And although you may/ may not be the one to torture my Asiva, but the Kingsman bastards sure did.
For every scratch on her body, for every broken bone, I need to repay it back a thousandfold because otherwise I would not be worthy of her friendship.
So I'm sorry Nimli my fellow Vampire, but today not even your bones will be left "
Saying so, Max used [ Blood Manipulation ] to manipulate the blood flow inside Nimli's body directly as he made every vein, every artery and every last capillary blast in the most brutal way possible.
[ System Notification ] - You have killed the tier 4 Vampire belonging to the light faction ' Nimli ' inside a Battle-Zone.
You have received
+500,000 exp
+1 spear ( Epic )
+1,000,000 gold coins
[ System Remark ] - Killing members of your own clan mercilessly, keep it up and your alignment will change from lawful evil to pure evil.
Max looked coldly at the scattered meat of his tier4 opponent laying all around as his warm blood sizzled on his skin.
Max did not need to kill Nimli so brutally, but he wanted to. He wanted to let the Kingsman bastards see that there were consequences for messing with his people, and wanted to thoroughly inspire fear.

( Meanwhile Severus )
Severus with his superior hearing caught the sound of light footsteps descending from the sky not far from their location, as he stood rooted to the spot and prevented the girls from moving any further.
" Tock , Tock , Tock "
Severus used an echolocation skill to confirm his doubts and the second he realised that there was an ambush ahead he narrowed his eyes and said " Run "
Changing directions, he dragged Anna and Asiva, forcing them to run ahead of him as he became the last man monitoring the tier 4 warrior on their tail.
" What happened? " Anna asked, perplexed by why they were suddenly changing directions
" A strong warrior is on our tail " Severus said as he realised that the enemy was closing in fast and that a fight would be inevitable.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSigfried on the other hand clicked his tongue, he thought he had landed extremely softly and was prepared with a full restraining array to capture the group when they inevitably walked into his trap, however, somehow they managed to sense the danger and run away from him.
" I hate chasing on foot " Sigfried said as he tore through the forest at unbelievable speeds, not bothering to manoeuvre around the woods at all but rather slashing everything in his path down.
He let out a long range sword swipe at the group from about 200 metres out, which Severus blocked at the last second with nothing but a wooden stick.
" Wooo ". Anna cheered as she was impressed by Severus's skill
Severus grinned as he proudly said " It's from a lifetime of using Brooms ".
The sweeper actually used the broom as his preferred choice of weapon, and although it lacked the combat ability of many traditional weapons, Severus's skill with the broom was not to be underestimated by any means.
" Can we take him ? " Asiva asked as she narrowed her eyes when the man launched another long ranged attack, this time from only 160 metres out, meaning he was closing in fast.
It was Anna's turn to block now as she shot three arrows at once, neutralising the sword slash with her arrowheads.
" If me and you had mana it was a fair fight, but in our current state we would be pressed hard, he is at the very peak of tier 4 " Severus said as he urged the group to keep running for now.
However, Asiva stopped running as she pulled out her daggers and chose to stand her ground as she bared her fangs and hissed violently at her pursuer.
" HISSS ".
" Why? " Anna said as she stopped running as well and began shooting arrows towards the swordsman who was slowed down in his approach and forced to block.
" I've been in captivity and running for too long now Anna, it's time to stop running and start fighting " Asiva said with conviction as she put forward a brave front.
She had decided that for better or for worse, the only way through this situation now was to face it.
As it was not like the group had a better plan than to run aimlessly, because sooner or later the faster warrior was going to catch-up to them and then they would be forced into a fight anyways.
Since the fight was inevitable, she was at least going to take the initiative to make the first move!
