We're Already In Close Combat And You Still Say You're A Mage?

Xu Bai knew what happened next.

The Duke waited here for 300 years.

Until Xu Bai entered Silent Night Star and came here through the passage deep into the underground of the abandoned factory.

"etc."

Xu Bai suddenly thought of something and asked the Duke.

"What's sleeping in that pool of blood?"

The Duke mentioned earlier that there is a crystal ball on the second floor of the palace in the center of this underground cavity that can control small animals within a 10-kilometer radius and can share vision.

Therefore, Xu Bai concluded that the Duke must know something.

The Duke did not answer him immediately. Instead, he turned towards the palace and motioned for Xu Bai to follow.

"Come with me, I will take you directly to see it."

Hearing this, Xu Bai put away Poxie and followed the Duke into the palace.

After entering the palace, the two walked along the stairs to the second floor of the palace.

On the second floor of the palace, Xu Bai saw a gray stone table placed in the center of the palace.

The stone table has some signs of weathering, and there are cracks and missing corners in many places.

Above the stone table, there is a wooden base, and a crystal ball the size of a human head is placed on the wooden base.

The two came to the stone table.

The Duke placed his hand on the crystal ball and activated it.

The surface of the crystal ball began to flash continuously.

Soon, the screen stopped flashing.

The interior of a cave appears in the picture.

It was the cave where the blood pool was located.

The viewing angle of the picture on the crystal ball is relatively low, and it should be the perspective of some small animals such as mice.

However, in the current scene, there is still nothing in the cave.

"This is what it looked like eight days ago."

The Duke took his hand off the crystal ball.

But the picture on the crystal ball did not disappear, it was still playing.

Not long after, a group of vampires appeared on the screen, walking out of the passage at the other end of the cave.

The leader was none other than the Marquise.

Many people in this team of vampires hold some instruments and tools for carving formations.

The Duke reached out again and placed his hand on the crystal ball.

The next moment, the picture on the crystal ball began to speed up.

In the picture, these vampires selected a relatively flat open space in the huge cave and began to work on it.

Soon, a huge formation with a radius of about 300 meters and emitting dark blue light appeared in the open space.

After the formation was completed, in the passage at the other end of the cave, about hundreds of humans were escorted up by a group of vampire guards.

The vampire guards drove these humans onto the huge formation.

Then, the Marquis lowered her body, pierced her wrist with the silver stabbing sword in her hand, and dripped a drop of blood on the formation.

In an instant, the dark blue lines on the formation quickly turned into scarlet blood, which was the result of being activated.

After the magic circle was activated, the human above it showed a painful expression.

Immediately afterwards, their bodies exploded instantly, turning into smelly pus and blood.

Evenly covering the entire array.

Under the influence of the formation, the smelly pus and blood began to become extremely corrosive, corroding the rocks on the ground, including the formations carved on them, and seeping downwards.

In the blink of an eye, a huge pit was carved out of the rock on the ground.

The corrosiveness of this blood is slowly weakening.

Eventually, they all gathered at the bottom of the pit, forming a small blood pool.

Immediately afterwards, another group of vampire guards walked out of the passage at the other end.

This time, they weren't escorting human civilians.

Instead, he tried his best to carry a huge palm that was 5 meters wide and walked out of the underground passage.

Xu Bai saw from the picture on the crystal ball that the palm was gray-white in color and had two-meter-long sharp nails.

The skin and flesh on the palms are severely dehydrated and dry, making the skeleton of the palms particularly clear and looking more like a skeleton claw.

Behind the palm, there is a smooth cut.

Dried flesh and bones could be seen from the incisions.

These vampire guards carried this huge withered palm to the newly formed blood pool.

Throw your palm into it.

It didn't take long.

A bloody barrier then appeared.

...

The screen stops here.

The Duke pointed at the picture on the crystal ball, gritted his teeth, and said to Xu Bai.

"You should know all the rest."

"They bleed humans like slaughtering livestock, and use human blood to continuously nourish this palm."

"So, what exactly is that palm?"

After seeing the picture shown in the crystal ball, Xu Bai was filled with doubts.

Just a dry palm can give birth to a vague self-awareness, and emit aura fluctuations that are enough to make Xu Bai feel uneasy.

A broken palm is just like this. How powerful must the palm itself be?

Hearing Xu Bai's inquiry, the Duke frowned.

"If I remember correctly, the "Blood Ancestor" of the Vampire Clan has a huge body, and that palm should be the palm of the "Blood Ancestor". "

""Blood Ancestor"......"

Xu Bai pondered.

Soon, he grasped the key point.

"Didn't you say that the "Blood Ancestor" fell asleep after the war? "

"Then how did his palm appear here?"

The Duke thought for a moment and said:

"I don't know much."

"Those evil-blooded humans back then told me that as the "Blood Ancestor" who was the first blood of the Vampire Clan, he was very powerful. "

"Even in the war 4,000 years ago, the only way for the evil-blooded humans to deal with the "Blood Ancestor" was to use the human sea tactic without risking their lives. "

"In this way, the "Blood Ancestor" was not killed, and the final result was just the "Blood Ancestor" sleeping. "

"As for why his limbs appear here, I don't know."

The Duke told Xu Bai the information he knew.

But there doesn't seem to be any useful information...

...

At this moment, there was a sudden commotion outside the palace.

There was a hissing sound of something being corroded.

Hearing the noise, the two immediately rushed out of the palace.

As soon as they walked out of the palace gate, they saw that the group of vampires who were standing in front of the palace without self-awareness and controlled by the Duke had disappeared.

And a piece of highly corrosive pus and blood appeared where they originally stood.

They had already been eroded by this pus and blood, and there was nothing left.

This pus and blood was the same thing as what they had seen in the crystal ball on the second floor of the palace.

The two quickly observed the surrounding environment, trying to find the source of the pus and blood.

I saw that on the rock at the top of the underground space, an area of ​​rock disappeared out of thin air, and a large hole appeared directly to the surface.

Looking up through this large hole, you can even see the light of the setting sun on the surface of the earth.
