On the second floor of a house on Marseille Road, four black figures were sitting in the room, waiting quietly.
The room was dark, without a single candle. Through the light coming from the window, you could vaguely see the appearance of the five people dressed up.
The five people all have pale faces and sunken eye sockets, like long-term drug addicts. Everyone is dressed in black, with a black high-collared cape on their back, exactly like the legendary vampire nobles.
One of them is dressed slightly differently. His cloak is also black, but the bottom is bright red, like blood.
He was sitting facing the window, looking at the courtyard-style building across the street with a solemn expression.
Opposite was the Orlando House where the target was located. It was already late at night, and the lights on the street were almost all extinguished, but there was still light coming from the window of a room in the building opposite.
According to the last information he got, that room was the collection room, where the evil alchemist was refining weapons to deal with them.
"Sir, it's already midnight, shall we do something?" a subordinate's voice said from beside him.
The vampire known as "Sir" was still hesitant. Everything in the mansion opposite seemed normal, but he was not sure whether the other party was busy refining weapons.
If the opponent does not make alchemy, but lays a trap waiting for them, then if they go in to assassinate them, they will be seeking death.
But it's no good if you don't go in. The inside line of the mansion has been cut off by the other party. There has been no news for more than four hours. If the other party has already started refining weapons, then he will delay the master's important event.
After much deliberation, the vampire realized that he had no choice at all. No matter whether there was a trap or not, he was going to enter the Jazz Mansion to find out what was going on.
"Get ready for action." He made up his mind.
To be on the safe side, he turned to one of his subordinates and said, "You stay outside for external response. If the situation changes, leave here immediately and report the situation to the master."
"Yes." His subordinates took the order.
The four vampires quietly opened the window and jumped down one after another. Their movements were very light and very fast. When they fell from the second floor, their cloaks spread out behind them. From a distance, they looked like a blurry black shadow, much like night bats.
As soon as the four vampires landed, they ran in four different directions according to their previously planned plan.
The leader of the vampire assassin burst in directly from the main entrance. He ran at full speed, his body drawing a black line in the dark night. He crossed the street in half a second and reached the iron fence of the Jazz Mansion. He stretched out his hand on the fence and used strength. His whole body was like a civet.
They also climbed over the fence and fell into the courtyard.
As soon as he landed, he instinctively shrank his body into the shadow of the wall, leaned down, and moved quickly along the wall.
After walking about ten meters, the vampire's body paused without warning, raising one foot in the air without falling.
Under his feet, a rune was shining with a subtle silver light.
"Huh, magic rune." The vampire leader was very disdainful. He retracted his foot and carefully took a step away, preparing to avoid this rune.
The moment he moved away, a faint sound of wind suddenly came from a dark shadow behind him.
"No, invisible assassin!" The vampire leader was shocked. His body strength exploded, and he rushed forward. At the same time, he waved his hand back, and the nails on his hands popped out. They were ten centimeters long, and the roots were like iron, glowing with metallic black.
Light.
He is very confident in his sharp claws, which can break gold and gravel, and ordinary daggers can be broken with a single scratch.
The claw hit a hard object halfway through the swing. It should be the opponent's weapon. Judging from the power feedback, it should be a dagger.
"Broken!" The vampire shouted in his heart.
A crisp sound of "ding" spread in the dark night, and a flash of firelight flashed. The vampire felt that his hand was empty, and then there was severe pain.
"what happened!"
The vampire rushed forward quickly to dodge the opponent's combos. When he was busy, he drew back his hand and saw that his right hand had almost turned into a convex stick. Not to mention all the sharp claws, three fingers had been cut off.
What kind of dagger is this? It’s so sharp!
The vampire was horrified, but then he realized something was wrong under his feet. He lowered his head and saw that there was another spell rune under his feet. Who put this damn rune? It was so insidious!
The runes have been triggered and started to glow. A large amount of frost power is rushing left and right along the lines, and is on the verge of erupting.
This vampire is also a good player. His feet shook, and his physical strength far exceeded that of others. He jumped up with all his strength.
The moment he jumped up, the runes erupted, and the ground cracked with several crackling sounds, and ice spikes pierced out, crisscrossing like a crystal clear ice flower.
The vampire's forehead was covered in cold sweat. It was so dangerous. If he was hit, his lower body would be completely crippled.
The effect of his leap was still there. Although he was already more than two meters high, his body was still rising. When he looked up, he saw that there was a window sill above his head, so he reached out and grabbed it, ready to borrow it.
Climb up to the second floor of the mansion.
But as soon as he grabbed the window sill, he saw the same silver light flashing on the windowsill, and it turned out to be another frost rune, and it was triggered by him.
"Damn it, there's nothing here!" The vampire immediately retracted his hand, and at the same time kicked hard on the wall, and flew sideways away from the wall.
As soon as he was one meter away from the wall, the runes erupted, making him sweat profusely.
He could no longer care about the window sill. He looked at his footing and concentrated on identifying it. He just hoped that there wouldn't be another rune on the ground. He was already exhausted mentally and physically from the torment.
After this observation, the vampire immediately complained incessantly. He couldn't see clearly what was happening on the ground because there was a black shadow waiting for him there.
Needless to say, this black shadow was the assassin who attacked him just now.
He was in mid-air, with flaws all over his body. The opponent was waiting for work, and he had a magic weapon in his hand. He had a huge advantage. He was not sure whether he could escape the trap this time.
At this moment, it was already a critical moment of life and death. The vampire did not dare to use his claws to fight with the opponent. He quickly pulled out a whip from his waist and swept towards the opponent.
This whip was struck out with a long strike against a short one. It was the nemesis of daggers and short weapons. The black shadow on the ground retreated as he wished.
The vampire felt relieved and fell to the ground, but when he was still one meter away from the ground, he found that the other party threw a small stone at his footing.
"Why is this?" The vampire was confused.
His body continued to fall, still half a meter above the ground. The vampire finally knew the reason. The stone was not the key, but the frost rune triggered by the stone.
Why can the other party step on it, but I can’t? It’s so unfair! This is the resentment in the vampire’s mind.
This time, he had nowhere to hide and could only fall down helplessly.
The frost runes erupted at the same moment, and the ice spikes poked up from bottom to top, instantly poking seven or eight bloody holes in his lower body and freezing his body to the ground.
Incomparable severe pain came, even though the vampire was born with numbness to pain, he couldn't help but let out a groan of pain, and his eyesight also turned black for a while.
There was another faint sound of wind in front of him, and the assassin came back again.
"It's over." The vampire was desperate.
From the beginning to the end, his every move was within the opponent's plan. All his great skills were wasted on dealing with spell runes, and he had no time to deal with this assassin.
As soon as the thought flashed through his mind, he felt a pain in his heart. The heart was pierced. The heart is the core of a vampire. If it is pierced, although it will not cause death, it will paralyze the whole body and lose all resistance.
Then his forehead felt hot again, as if someone had stuck a piece of paper on it. The paper ignited without fire, and the flames after burning swept through his body as if it were alive, burning his soul.
This was real pain. The vampire tried not to make a sound, but his whole body was trembling like chaff as he struggled desperately in the fire.
Ke'er looked at the extremely miserable-looking vampire that had been affixed with an exorcism charm. She couldn't bear to look at it any longer and turned around and ran towards the room. She had to support Sister Xin.
As soon as she entered the living room of the Jazz Mansion, she saw an unlucky vampire fixed to the ground by frost runes, moaning in pain.
Ke'er felt happy, Sun Ranfang's rune trap was so insidious, it was hard not to fall into it.
She ran past the vampire, stabbed a dagger in his heart, then put a few ghost-repelling charms on his body, and lit him into a candle.
There was a fierce fight at the door of the collection room. Ke'er walked over and saw Lan Xin fighting with a vampire.
As Lan Xin danced with her pair of one-handed swords, firelight flashed, like two colorful ribbons. A vampire had already fallen dead on the ground next to him. His heart was stabbed with a sword, and then his heart was roasted by the flames.
Although a vampire's heart is very strong and can barely survive after being stabbed through by a knife, if it is cooked by fire, even the little strong can't withstand it.
With one against two, he actually had the upper hand and even killed one of them. This martial skill was really powerful. If Sun Ran saw it, he would definitely lament that his wife was too strong.
The vampire she was fighting was also covered in scorch marks and looked very embarrassed. It looked like the situation would not last long.
When the unlucky guy saw Ke'er coming in, his expression became even more flustered and his movements became even more unorganized. Lan Xin caught him in the gap and killed him with a sword that burned his heart.
After killing the vampire, Lan Xin opened her mouth and asked: "Where is Sun Ran?"
Ke'er shook his head: "I don't know."
"I saw he went outside the house." The invisible Bai Tingxuan appeared.
"He went alone? Why is he so reckless?" Lan Xin scolded and wanted to follow him out of the house.
Sun Ran is a mage with no martial arts skills. Dealing with vampires in the dark is very dangerous, almost like seeking death.
At this time, Sun Ran's voice came in: "Don't worry, I'm back."
A figure appeared at the corner, it was Sun Ran, dragging in his hand a vampire whose whole body was covered in frost and groaning from the cold.
"This guy wanted to go back to report the news, but I caught him." Sun Ran threw the vampire to the ground.
All the vampire assassins were wiped out, and one of them was captured as a prisoner.
The monitor observing this scene in the space station turned to Hao Qiang and reported: "Bramble Rose defeated the first wave of saboteurs' attacks, and its own side was not harmed."
Hao Qiang nodded, feeling satisfied.
All these changes occurred after the fourth member of the team appeared. It seems that the rose tree of this team is very powerful.
