Overgeared Chapter 721:
Chapter 721
‘The direct descendants are outstanding . ’
Grid was reminded of one person throughout his fight with Earl Cray . It was Elfin Stone, the former owner of Iyarugt . Earl Cray was strong enough to remind him of Elfin Stone . Tiramet and Latina were no comparison . Grid had a question once he remembered Elfin Stone .
‘What if Elfin Stone appeared in the present time?’
Ruby’s one-shot Purification skill couldn’t resolve Blood Field and most of the Overgeared members would be neutralized . Grid wouldn’t have benefited from the instantaneous skills and would’ve lost his immortality .
‘He might’ve even summoned Iyarugt . . . ’
Grid had suffered several crises during the Elfin Stone raid and eventually died . From Grid’s perspective, the Elfin Stone raid was one of the most difficult raids . But now he thought it was fortunate that he met Elfin Stone at an early stage .
Grid broke through the widespread Tornado . The blood tornadoes were a magic that dominated the field itself by overlaying with each other . The field magic that disarmed all ‘avoid non-targeted skills’ was useless in front of the present Grid . Grid’s evasion rate in the Ecstasy of Desire state reached 99% . Grid’s consciousness left his body and evaded all the winds of blood .
But .
[You have suffered 8,700 damage . ]
“Kuk . ”
After all, 99% wasn’t 100% . Furthermore, the higher Earl Cray’s accuracy rate, the more likely it was for the 99% evasion rate to fall further . Grid’s skin started to tear as he broke through the area of blood tornado . Immediately after avoiding the red tails that became six pillars, his potions cooldown had ended . Otherwise, Grid would’ve died at this moment .
“Transcend!”
His health was so dicey that approaching closely was difficult . Grid judged and entered transcendent mode . It was the Pagma’s Swordsmanship technique that raised attack power by two times while converting basic attacks to ranged attacks .
Pepeng!
Pepepepeng!
The more powerful Grid started aiming ranged attacks towards Earl Cray beyond the blood tornadoes .
“Youuuu!”
Kwa kwa kwa kwang!
The blood tornadoes responded to Earl Cray’s emotions and became wilder . But this momentum didn’t last long . Thanks to the Enlightenment Sword, Grid’s basic attack displayed a power that could kill an army and it wasn’t inferior in the Transcend state . Earl Cray continued to be hit by red flames and black flames and his health soon reached the bottom .
“Keook . . . !”
Beyond the **** whirlpool, Earl Cray’s face was white . At the same time, the blood tornadoes’ momentum weakened and Grid didn’t miss this gap . In the end, he used Ecstasy of Desire to reach Earl Cray and fired Pagma’s Swordsmanship, Pinnacle and Kill .
Shaaaaaah-
The blood tornadoes that had grown to devour a city started to disappear . Earl Cray shed tears of blood as he was stabbed by Grid’s sword .
“Cough! Kuhuk . . . ! I . . . ! To a human, I . . . !”
“ . . . ”
Grid’s face was full of compassion as he stared at Earl Cray, who had started turning to grey . The moment that Earl Cray transformed all six tails into a whirlwind, Grid had interpreted it as manifesting an obvious need for survival . It seemed to be an obstacle disallowing access to Grid and to remove all risk factors to the city . In other words, Earl Cray felt a crisis from the beginning .
Nevertheless, he didn’t ask for help from his brothers . Pride? No, it was probably because they wouldn’t help in the first place .
"How poor . . . ”
People couldn’t live alone in the world . Grid had always been alone, so he knew this fact .
"It’s not because you are weak . I just have companions and you don’t . That’s the difference . ”
Was he reminded of himself in the past? Grid gave a meaningless and uncomfortable comfort to Earl Cray . Oh my god, was there anyone other than Grid who would sympathize and comfort a monster at the end? If someone saw this scene, they would be scared or laugh .
" . . . A human is taking pity on me . You should be caredul of Marquis Fenrir and Duke Marie Rose . Fenrir inherited two powers from Mother and Marie Rose is the second coming of Mother . . . ”
As he stared at Grid with eyes that were losing light, Earl Cray gave him advice . Braham and Elfin Stone, who ignored and degraded Cray, despite being kin . Compared to them, he thought Grid was better . It was the unexpected result of combining the Qualification of a Blood King title and Pangea’s Duke of Virtue title . At the end, Earl Cray felt favorable towards Grid .
Swaaaah!
Eventually, Earl Cray scattered as ashes .
" . . . Your personality seems to be similar . ”
Grid gave a bittersweet smile as he was reminded of Braham .
[Owner of the 9th city, Vampire Earl Cray is forced to sleep after exhausting all his powers . ]
[The level of the party members including ‘Grid’ has risen by 1 . ]
[The level of party members ‘Sexy Schoolgirl’ and ‘Ruby’ have risen by 3 . ]
[The party leader ‘Grid’ has acquired the Cray’s Bracelet . ]
[The party leader ‘Grid’ has acquired the the Finest Opals . ]
[The party leader ‘Grid’ has acquired 12 blessed weapon enhancement stones . ]
[The party leader ‘Grid’ has acquired 16 blessed armor enhancement stones . ]
[Cray’s Strength is engraved on the Rune of Darkness possessed by party leader ‘Grid . ’]
[Party member Chris’ ‘Rune of Supplementation’ has been engraved with ‘Direct Descendant Resistance,’ ‘Blood Magic Resistance,’ and ‘Blood-sucking Capabilities . ]
“ . . . ”
The raid’s difficulty was naturally rewarded . Grid confirmed the rewards and became filled with joy and bitterness . In particular, he noted the power attached to the rune that Chris had recently acquired .
'As the name suggests, it is a rune that compensates for lacking parts?’
It was a rune that would have tremendous value over time . Grid felt proud . He was glad about combining strength with his colleagues and sibling and knocked down one of the strongest . But that joy was brief .
“What . . . ? He isn’t the owner of the 7th city?”
Grid belatedly confirmed it . Earl Cray was the owner of the 9th city, not the 7th city!
“This!”
The Overgeared members, including Grid, fell into shock . They hoped the exit would open when they raided Earl Cray and this unexpected reversal was confusing .
“Wait! Everybody, calm down!” Lauel exclaimed urgently . "All the direct descendants have left this place . We still have time to recover . And just like Earl Cray, the rest of the direct descendants will deal with us on their own without cooperating . ”
Yes, it meant there was hope . So what if there were three direct descendants? Each one fought separately . Everyone expected that they could escape the 7th city safely if they defeated the direct descendants individually . But this expectation was broken . Coincidentally, it was due to Grid .
[You have sealed four of Shizo Beriache’s direct line . The title Qualification of a Blood King has been promoted to ‘Blood King Candidate . ’]
[Blood King Candidate] Lv . 1
You have become a candidate to be a blood king .
You will give a sense of pressure to ordinary vampires . All general vampires hostile towards you will have their stats decreased by 15% .
You will give a sense of hostility to true blood vampires . All true blood vampires hostile towards you will have their stats decreased by 8% .
Direct vampires will be interested in you . Any direct vampires facing you will temporally awaken from the Curse of Idleness .
"Ah . . . ?”
Qualification of a Blood King reduced a general vampire’s stats by 10% and a true blood vampire stats increased by 10% . It also had the effect of making the direct descendants interested in him . Thus, Earl Cray liked Grid at the last minute . However, the influence of Blood King Candidate was completely different . It created a vigilance in the direct descendants that caused them to overcome the Curse of Idleness .
"XX, this **** . . . ”
The moment Grid cursed .
"Cray was defeated?”
Earl Yetima . He was one of the three direct descendants who took a bystander’s attitude throughout the attempt to fight Earl Cray .
“This **** thing!”
The Overgeared members were exhausted in the aftermath of the Earl Cray raid . All types of skills were on cooldown and their stamina was lacking . Given the fact that Earl Yetima was the same rank as Cray, the probability of the Overgeared members’ survival was 0% .
Huroi came forward .
“Your Majesty! I will buy time so take the others away!”
Always, always . Huroi sacrificed himself every time there was a crisis in order to guard Grid .
Grid looked at him and pledged . He wouldn’t sacrifice his colleagues again . In order to do that, he had to be stronger .
"Huroi, it’s my job to protect you from now on . ”
Step .
Grid took a big step in front of Huroi . His fighting energy was still at 100 points so he pulled out the trump card he had been saving .
Hwaruruk .
Grid’s body was surrounded by flames . It was from head to toe . The red flickering covered Grid’s eyebrows and hair . Belial’s Power, the power of fire was opened .
"I’m certain . You’re weaker than Cray . Isn't that right?"
Cray had said that he was a marquis candidate . He had warned Grid to be careful of Fenrir and Marie Rose before he died . On the other hand, he didn’t even mention the remaining three direct descendants . It was clear that Yetima was weaker than Cray .
"Kukuk, what does a human known? Even if I’m weaker than Cray, what can you do now?”
Yetima noted that Grid’s body was injured . He was like an intense flame in front of the wind . At that moment .
Peeng!
Grid flew up . He was like a comet .
“Item Transformation!”
Paaaat!
The hands behind Grid transformed into Lifael’s Spear .
“Trivial humans!”
In the sky, Yetima pulled out a greatsword . Yetima aimed an overwhelming horizontal slash towards Grid . He believed that the human was injured and attacked Grid without fending off his strike . It was to tear flesh off bones . This was the first step .
“Linked Kill!”
The Power of Fire boasted overwhelming resilience, so Grid had already regained a considerable amount of health .
Puok!
Puk puk!
[You have dealt 539,000 damage to the target!]
[You have recovered 100% of the damage deal to the target due to the effect of Cray’s Power, attached to the Rune of Darkness . ]
[Cray’s Power]
Passive .
Cooldown Time: 5 minutes .
Absorb 100% of the damage done to the target . Once the blood volume exceeds the maximum health, a red tail will be summoned with a duration that is proportional to the amount of health exceeded . You can have up to two red tails and can’t control them .
In addition, Grid had a new power . It was a mighty force that couldn’t be met by Yetima, who was less than Earl Cray .
“Kuk . . . ! What?”
The moment Earl Yetima was struck by Grid’s Linked Kill . Unlike his expectations, Grid didn’t die . Then Earl Yetima found two red tails behind Grid and was shocked again .
‘Stupid Cray! Your power was absorbed by an inferior human!’
Teteng!
It was a matter of being conscious of Earl Cray’s strength . Yetima defended against the red tails with the greatsword, but couldn’t defend against the four Lifael’s Spear that came after him . It was the second cause of his defeat .
Puk!
Puuok!
“Keok!”
The deadly power of one of Rebecca’s three divine artefacts . Yetima flinched as he was skewered by four spears . Grid whispered to him .
“Small fry . ”
Hwaruruk!
Gigantic spheres of fire rose before Yetima’s body . It was Queen’s Flames of Hell which dealt damage proportional to the target’s health .
Puaaaaaaaah!
The explosion shook the ground . Then it was followed up with Pagma’s Swordsmanship . Due to the influence of the power of fire, the flames that repeatedly came from Enlightenment Sword struck Yetima . He was also assisted by Jishuka, who boasted infinite stamina thanks to the Red Phoenix Bow . The other Overgeared members also started to join the battle .
On the other hand, Yetima was alone . It was the third cause of his defeat .
After a while .
[The owner of the 7th city, Vampire Earl Yetima is forced to sleep after exhausting all of his powers . ]
The entrance to the 7th city, where the Overgeared members were trapped, was opened .
