Overgeared - Chapter 721

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 bloody 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 sucks . . . ”

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 damn 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 .
