'No kidding' thought Kevin, so it was because they didn't know what zombies were that the three of them were looking at him that way.
Kevin sighed helplessly and explained to them : "Well ... They are originally humans but have been deprived of consciousness and they are often very aggressive and cannibalistic."
Axel who had never heard of something like that said to him trying to reassure him : "Don't worry there won't be this kind of thing here, the last line of defense for their nest will probably be their sentries."
Kevin has preferred not to point out that he wasn't at all worried or scared, on the contrary, he was very excited, but what Axel had just said caught his attention and he looked at him startled before asking : "Did you spot any ?"
Axel smiled at him and said : "There are about ten approaching at high speed, you should be able to see their notifications soon."
And as Axel had predicted, the first notification appeared only few seconds later, it came from the roof of the mansion.
[ STATS ]
Name : Elite Knight Vampire
Race : Superior Demon
Class : Fighter
Level 35
HP : 1050 / 1050
Recover 5 HP / sec
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtKevin frowned and read the information for everyone, he could recover 5 HP points per second, it was the scariest thing he had seen so far, it made them almost impossible to kill.
He understood better why Axel had told him to rip out their heart and not stab them, instant death was definitely the only way to kill them.
The Vampire was dressed in an uniform all in black and he was also wearing a long red cloak. His face was as white as snow and his lips were a blood red that contrasted starkly with the color of the rest of his face, he also had a reddish glow that was shining in his black eyes.
Kevin took his shortswords in his hands and he prepared himself to fight, he was now level 25, thanks to his Stats improved by those of his weapons, this Vampire should not be a problem to him.
Suddenly, notifications popped up from everywhere and there were 6 more Elite Knight Vampires that looked like two drops of water like the first Vampire that appeared, and the most powerful of them was level 48.
There were also 4 Warrior Vampires, respectively level 57, 63, 68, and 75.
They could be easily differentiate from the others because their long cloak weren't red but black with golden buttons which gave a very showy effect, it was probably a way to recognize their superiority rank within their nest. ????n????????e????d. ????????????
When Kevin gave the information he got from the System, Axel said in an authoritative and non-negotiable tone : "With Alan we'll be dealing with the Warrior Vampires, we'll let you give them the final blow so you both will be able get some more experience points."
He looked at Erik and said : "Erik I would love to tell you that I entrust Kevin's safety to you but I'm not really sure he needs it, so just be careful the two of you and watch out for each other."
The vampires were also grouped together to talk about their attack strategy, they were more numerous than them but two of the intruders were extremely powerful, it would be difficult to stop them.
The Warrior Vampire who was level 75, then took out a bat from his long black cloak and whispered in its ear the information they had gathered on the intruders.
He sent it to warn their master of the danger represented by these intruders and then he focused again on those powerful opponents.
Their attack strategy was similar to the one Axel had just given, except that the Vampire leader thought that his men he had sent to deal with the two weaker ones would come back and give them a hand after they were done with them, he thought that it shouldn't take them long to finish them off.
Of course, this strategy was doomed to fail because none of his men would be able to come back and give them a hand.
Alan threw some giant fireballs at the Vampires to separate them in two groups and after that the confrontation began.
Kevin and Erik had chosen to fight back to back together to avoid being an easy target for these Vampires.
Their levels really weren't to be taken lightly, luckily, Erik level was highter than theirs, so with his axes Stats it wouldn't be a problem at all.
Kevin said to help him : "Use the movements I taught you last night, the ones you have already mastered, don't try to improvise with weapons that you don't fully understand okay."
Erik said without hesitation : "Okay Kev, I will follow your advice, and don't worry too much about me, stay focused on your own fight."
Kevin twirled his swords in his hands and his creepy smile appeared on his face, the 3 Elite Knight Vampires facing him were level 35, 38 and 42, while the 4 preparing to attack Erik was level 36, 44, 46 and 48.
Kevin was very impressed with the level of these Vampires but soon that little anxiety was replaced by the excitement and adrenaline to fight against such powerful opponents.
A first Vampire walked over to him, snickering and licking his lips, he caught sight of his sharp canines, and Kevin found it really disgusting.
He let him attack first, well, he didn't really have a choice as he was always back to back with Erik, but his attack wasn't as fast or as strong as he had expected and he parried it easily.
He took the opportunity to counterattack and he chopped his wrist that was holding his sword with a completely unstoppable expert movement.
And when the Vampire who was completely taken aback by this unexpected counterattack which was exceptional in speed and precision, grabbed his wrist and screamed in pain out of sheer reflex, Kevin used that to his advantage and while the Vampire was still in shock, he beheaded him with another very fast and powerful movement.
After that, this Vampire turned to dust leaving only some sort of large blood-red colored stone behind him which had an oval shape, he said looking to the others Vampires a little annoyed : "So noisy ! Who's next ?"
Erik laughed out loud and said : "So guys, who wants to be next ! We are in a bit of a hurry, we would like to join our men back as soon as possible."
Kevin's creepy smile suddenly disappeared from his lips, his face had become completely expressionless but the Vampires who were in front of him couldn't help but shiver under his glare, he said to them : "If there's one thing I hate the most it's waiting."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt was time to try his new fire spell against those poor indecisive Vampires.
A message immediately appeared before his eyes at this single thought.
[ Fire element spell level 1 : Fire ball, Soul force required to activate : 20. Yes / No.
4 Fire Balls can be launched at the same time, it requires 100 Soul force points to activate this special attack. Yes / No. ]
Hell yes ! Thought Kevin when he saw that he could use 4 Fire Balls at the same time, it's going to be fun !
4 Fire Balls instantly appeared right in front of him and he immediately felt connected with them, as if he had created them.
He could move them as he pleased and he focused on the Vampires in front of him, two each.
He really needed extreme concentration to be able to direct his 4 Fireballs at the same time, but after a few tries he managed to hit one of the two Vampires with one of his Fire balls.
Because he had just gotten wounded, he had a few seconds of inattention and those few seconds, when you were facing someone like Kevin, was enough to cost you your life.
And that exactely what happened to this poor Vampire who was still wondering how this weakling human could fight so well and use spells in the same time.
Kevin threw him the remaining 3 Fire balls and he immediately disintegrated in front of his eyes, also leaving a stone similar to that of the other Vampire he had already executed.
Just one more, thought Kevin, and Erik had also killed 2 Vampires, it was time to speed things up, a 3v2 was completely different from a 7v2.
Kevin grabbed Erik's elbow and he propelled him towards the Vampire who remained on his side, saying : "Take care of this one, I'll take care of the others."
Erik swore and yelled out loud : "What the fuck !"
He was so surprised at this change of behavior from Kevin and he really wasn't prepared for this.
But it wasn't the right time to make a fuss about it, as he still had a Vampire to kill and this one was attacking him without giving him a second of respite.
