Chapter 164 - The Devilish Butcher

[You've been attacked by more than a dozen monsters below the tenth level of the magical realm. The negative energy barrier has absorbed all of the damage. You've received zero damage!]

[The negative energy barrier is on the brink of destruction.]

[The Bracelet of Strength is asking for permission to utilize 300 units of negative energy to restore the negative energy barrier back to its peak condition. Do you agree?]

"Yes." Without a single moment of hesitation, Vincent agreed to let the bracelet restore the negative energy barrier as it was his lifeline, and he said a single word in his mind to cover his will to the bracelet, mentally communicating with it, commanding it to use around one-third of the total units of negative energy to restore the barrier.

[The Bracelet of Strength has channeled 300 units of negative energy into the negative energy barrier.]

The huge amount of negative energy has restored the barrier back to its peak conditions and the cracks on it disappeared without a trace. The monsters latching on his legs, chest, head, arms, and even his genital used all their strength to break the skin-like barrier but found out that they were unable to do so, and in the end, they ended up using so much strength that they losing their fangs, teeth, and even their sharp claws.

Vincent smiled, feeling a weird sense of satisfaction at their demise, and he yanked a lot of monsters off his body, throwing them to the ground, the place where they belong.

The monsters whimpered in pain and fear as they stood up from the ground, carefully stepping away from Vincent. They looked at him with eyes opened so wide in fear and shock that they threatened to pop out of their sockets, and their jaws were threatening to drop to touch the ground. Furthermore, with blood seeping out of their mouths, trickling down the edges of their chin, dripping on the floor, dirtying it, they looked like abused dogs and cats that were enough to be raised by nasty owners.

[The monsters are terrified of your existence. Fear has taken root in every fiber of their beings. A lot of negative energy is detected in them. Kill them to gain many units of negative energy.]

Vincent's lips thinned into a murderous smile as he stared at the monsters with a look that was overflowing with killing intent. He was going to kill them to earn experience points and also gain negative energy, a source necessary to enforce and restore the negative energy barrier.

He raised one of his arms, pointing it towards the large group of monsters.

The monsters felt fearful, believing that something horrifying is going to come out of his hand to do unthinkable things to them, and so they turned tail and started to ran away from him, fearing for their lives.

Of course, they weren't able to run far away from him.

"You've attacked me once and now it's my turn to return the favor."

Vincent said out loud, smiling devilishly as a large amount of blood burst forth from his body, blasting away his tattered shirt and rushing towards the monsters.

While cutting throw the air with an incredible speed, they coagulated, taking the shapes of think tentacles with sharp triangular ends.

Whoosh

Whoosh

Whoosh

The tentacles pass through them, moving in a zig-zag manner, suddenly creating a huge trap in the blink of an eye, and as they stepped on it, they lost their balance and were yanked off their limbs, tripping forward and crashing headfirst on the floor, producing a dull thud, nearly cracking their skull, and receiving a severe injury on their heads, one which clouded their vision and gave them dizziness, rendering them immobilized.

Puchi* Puchi*

Vincent manipulated the tentacles made out of his blood and connected to his body, controlling them to stand their sharp ends into the brains of the monsters. He was met with some resistance as not only their flesh were thick but their skulls were equally strong.

However, he repeatedly stabbed them, creating a hole the size of an arm in their skull, and then the tentacle stabbed them again, turning their brain into a mess, killing them in a gory way.

[You've killed many monsters in the magical realm and obtained a total of 2000 units of life force]

[You've also obtained 400 units of negative energy]

[The Bracelet of Strength has absorbed them to refill itself, and now it has a total of 1000 units of negative energy stored inside itself]

[Units of Blood: 20/50]

"Using blood gear sure is taxing," Vincent said under his breath as he pulled his tentacles out of their skull, causing blood to spurt out of the hole in their forehead.

The tentacles went back to him and dissolved into a liquid stage, entering his body through the pores of his skin, traveling along his veins, circulating towards his second heart, and getting sucked inside of it.

[You've gained twenty units of blood]

[Units of Blood: 20/50]

Unlike the first blood gear that burns a lot of blood when it's activated, the second gear only solidifies his blood into the shape of deadly tentacles no less dangerous than powerful cold weapons that he can not only stretch to more than three hundred meters but he can also reabsorb them into his bodies to refill the blood missing in his second heart.

The second blood gear is undoubtedly the best way to use my blood manipulation ability, Vincent thought in his mind as he stepped towards the monster cowering near the portal.

These poor monsters were terrified out of their wits and couldn't help but tremble uncontrollably.

In their eyes, Vincent wasn't a human!

Rather, he was a devil made out of crimson darkness!

A being that has struck fear in their hearts and rooted them to the ground.

How to survive?

Runaway from this place!

He stepped closer to them in a hurry, intending to finish them off as fast as he can so that he will be able to help the others, but the monsters stepped away from him as fast as they could, intending to run away from him as fast as they can, and a few of them even tried to jump into the portal to return to their homes, but a mysterious force repelled them away from the portal, throwing them towards Vincent.

He brandished his sword, chopping them in two halves, instantly obtaining hundreds of units of life force.

"Since you've all come to this place to kill us, I'll make sure that you stay here till your last breath."

Vincent said smilingly, and he then rushed towards the monster, appearing next to one of them in the split of a second, and he killed it with a thrust of his dagger before stomping his foot on the ground and moving on the next one.

A grand blood bath began on one side of the hall!

Monsters drop to the ground one after another as Vincent ruthlessly brandished his weapons.

His attack landed on their vital spots and reaped their lives in an instant.

He killed a lot of them and moved on to kill the ones that were trying to avoid him.

On the other side of the hall, Leilani, John, Varth, Nevis, and Iris are many monsters by themselves. Most of them were aiming to take a bite out of Leilani, intending to kill the most troublesome opponent first.

"Hurry up and protect Leila. Make a triangular formation! Stand at the edge of the triangular and let Leilani stand in the center of it. I will provide you guy cover from the sides! Hurry up!" Varth shouted at the top of his lungs, telling them what to do before he rushed away from them and into a group of monsters, engaging them in close combat.

He still used his guns to deal with them, but he was baiting them to attack him and kitting their attacks by using all of his focus, and also counterattacking them to reap their lives, lessening their numbers.

Meanwhile, John, Nevis, and Iris followed his command and stood around Leilani, standing in different positions, making it seem like Leilani was standing in the center of a triangle. 

The monsters pounced at them as they were in their ways. John fended them off by brandishing the melee weapon in his hand. Some monsters attacked him from the sides. However, Nevis used the power of the wood magic matrix to provide his defense just in time.

The monsters took that chance to sneak attack him. 

Just as their claws were about to land on his body, few frost spikes impaled into the head of the monsters, forcing them away from him and also killing them.
