Undying Warlord

Dilan’s Agility easily crossed 150 Units, which made him the fastest existence on the entire battlefield. Nobody was able to evade his attacks, and even the usage of defensive or attack abilities was of little use against him.

All the Vampires were trying their utmost efforts to defend against Dilan or to attack him using suicidal means but his Health Stat was too high.

Only the areas that were not covered by his skin could be injured, which restricted the Vampires tremendously.

Attacking his eyes would be the easiest out of the few options they had left but even that was not easy considering that a huge greatsword and his speed that was more than that of a tornado unleashing destruction obstructed the Vampires’ attacks from working out.

With time, Dilan killed more and more opponents. His speed accelerated the more opponents he killed as the fragments of the killed Vampires nourished the passive [Death toll] ability of Balzaki. The blade became more endurable and sharper as if it relished the blood of the beings getting killed and the hidden potential in Dilan’s body was fully unleashed.

He was like the grim reaper, reaping the lives and the souls of the Vampires on the battlefield, just that he was actively massacring everyone instead of waiting for their inevitable fate before their souls would be snatched away.

Nial didn’t show any signs of hesitation as he killed more and more Vampires. Their numbers were dwindling rapidly and it looked like the Werewolves were gaining a huge advantage.

Thus, after nearly half an hour had passed, Dilan chose to abandon the battlefield.

His stamina had been drained rapidly and he would rather recuperate than bother about killing all of them.

This was different from his earlier thought but Dilan didn’t really care about that.

He took a deep breath and sat down on the broken trunks of one of the few trees he had accidentally destroyed while wreaking havoc. The battlefield was filled with corpses, writhing and half-cut twitching bodies along with various Vampires that were fighting with the impossible aim of taking Dilan down.

Meanwhile, the Werewolves were now at an advantage. Their numbers were still less than that of the Vampires’ but that was not of their concern because each of the Werewolves’ attacks led to severe damage.

Dilan chose to watch the battle unfolding in front of him. It gave him many insights into the fighting style of both races. Until now, Dilan had never bothered learning how most Vampires fought because it only took him his high stats and abilities to defeat them.

Thus, he used the opportunity to watch everything from the outside. Neither the Vampires’ nor the Werewolves’ lives were much of his concern, giving him the chance to immerse himself in the analysis of the two races’ combat style, their advantages, disadvantages, and unique habits.

This was quite interesting for the next half an hour, in which he learned a lot. Afterward, when he was satisfied with his investigation, Dilan began to collect the Blood Essences of the Vampires he had killed.

There were several corpses littered on the ground and collecting Blood Essences from all of them would take a while. Thus, it was only fortunate that he had more than enough time for himself as everyone else was occupied with fighting for their lives.

Roughly an hour later, Dilan noticed that the last few Vampires were about to be killed. Some noble Vampires had been able to flee but that was not something he had to be worried about.

His future plans had begun to change and he thought of ways to make use of the rivalry between the Vampires and Werewolves.

Dilan didn’t trust either of the races but it was more difficult for the Werewolves to become troublesome to him, especially since they weren’t able to create countless blood servants in the blink of an eye and have a big army of loyal servants at their disposal.

Vampires were certainly more problematic than Werewolves, which was also part of the reason why he decided to jump on the battlefield.

Each of the Blood essences had been absorbed and Dilan felt extremely invigorated by now. He wouldn’t gain any additional benefits from the Blood Essences of most Vampires after today but that was fine.

His blood was overflowing with vigor and he could tell that he had been permanently strengthened. His body was undergoing a metamorphosis as well, releasing the impurities from his body.

This was the effect of his purified bloodline. Blood Essences expelled the impurities from his blood as they strengthened it.

In addition to Dilan’s passive ability [Warrior’s Unparalleled Physique], his body was truly approaching a state, where his physique could be considered unparalleled, and near-perfect.

Dilan was excited about this, but he was also intrigued by something else.

He walked over to one of the Werewolves’ corpses before he pierced through the man’s head, retrieving the Essence he possessed.

To his surprise, instead of an ordinary Essence crystal, or a Blood Essence, the crystal he was holding in his hand was almost pitch-black.

It looked interesting, so Dilan absorbed it without feeling that it was odd.

[<Gold> Night crystal of Tier-1 Level 25 Eclipse Knight(Werewolf) has been absorbed → The host receives no stats!]

Dilan hadn’t expected to receive any stats because he wasn’t the one to have killed the Werewolf. He was just interested in the name of the crystal and what kind of secondary passive effect absorbing the Night crystal would bring forward.

The result was quite satisfying because he could feel that his sight had improved. In fact, he sensed something that caused his eyes to widen as he received the corresponding notification just a moment later.

[Passive ability [Nightvision] Ungraded ★✭✭ reacts with the Metamorphosed Essence crystal of a Bestial race of the Night. Unique Upgrade requirement has been met → [Nightvision] Ungraded ★✭✭ will be upgraded to Ungraded ★★★★✭✭]

Dilan was astonished that his weakest passive ability suddenly received an upgrade.

The system’s comment about the Night crystal was also quite interesting ‘Metamorphosed Essence crystal of a Bestial race of the Night’, sounded like a lot of bullshit in his opinion.

The notification sounded weird but Dilan accepted it nonetheless. He was happy that the Nightvision ability was finally upgraded.

He had yet to ascertain if it was possible to see the upgrade requirements for future upgrades but that didn’t matter as much as before anymore.

Dilan could tell that Nightvision could be upgraded by absorbing more Night crystals but that seemed to be a little bit difficult because the Werewolves were just about to return from the battlefield. They saw that Dilan had approached them but didn’t notice what he had done to one of their brother’s corpses.

And that was for the better because Dilan would face lots of problems otherwise.

At that moment, Dilan finally received the notification he had been waiting for.

[The Blood Essences absorbed by the host have been fully digested → +28.1 Strength, +19.6 Stamina, +7.5 Mana]

[The Host’s Mana stat reached the limited threshold of a Tier-1 existence! Congratulations!]

A bright smile filled with satisfaction emerged on his face upon reading through his stats. He was more than a bit satisfied with the final result of today’s battle.

He had absorbed more than 2000 Blood Essences and gained lots of stats. In the end, they were not enough to max out all of his stats but that was not exactly a problem.

Both his Strength and Stamina were now close to 100 Units, which was decent enough in his opinion.

Another fight with some high-ranked noble Vampires should be enough to provide him with some juicy stats, which was also what Dilan was looking forward to.

Despite the favorable outcome, Dilan couldn’t afford to relax. He had to deal with the aftermath of the battle, and the Werewolves, whether that would be easy or not.
