Chapter 1 A Mess Again

A roar came from not far away, and Hao Ren knew that things had gone wrong again.

But he wasn't too surprised by this. People tend to get used to things.

Hao Ren looked in the direction of the sound and saw a tall, sturdy man standing at the corner of the warehouse. It was Kasa Eben, whom he had met once before. But unlike last time, this time he appeared in front of him as a furious demon.

Looking at his state, it was clear that a fierce battle was about to break out. He wouldn't listen to anything at this point.

Vivian had been in a state of readiness from the beginning. Although she was a little surprised that her blood mist clone hadn't been able to entangle the opponent, she immediately reacted the moment Kasa Eben appeared. Her huge bat wings suddenly opened, and a cold, bloody aura filled the air. Vivian suddenly rose, and with a flap of her giant wings, she launched an attack on the enemy. Hao Ren only felt a blur in front of him, and then countless scarlet phantoms emerged from both sides of his vision and pounced on the enemy dozens of meters away. The damage caused by the scarlet phantoms was shocking: the cement floor and the warehouse walls covered with iron sheets were rapidly corroded into slag, emitting sizzling green smoke, and layers of hard ice quickly spread behind them. The power released by Vivian swept across everything within range like a destructive storm.

Although the attack of a high-level bloodkin was powerful, Kasa Eben was not a pushover. The moment he realized that Vivian's strength exceeded his expectations, he decisively chose to transform, and then he actually faced the bloody impact that could dissolve bones and flesh head-on.

Everything was completed in a flash, and the scene outside the warehouse instantly turned upside down. The cold wind with a bloody smell rustled, spreading in all directions with Vivian as the center. Everything was severely corroded and then covered with a layer of frost. Kasa Eben didn't seem to be greatly affected by this cold wind. A layer of illusory shadow surrounded him, completely isolating the cold air. His appearance had begun to gradually change: his hair lengthened rapidly, and his body appeared more robust than before. Chunks of strong muscles bulged at a speed visible to the naked eye, quickly filling his clothes. His hands became bony, his knuckles were large and thick, and the tips of his fingers turned into frightening claws. Dense black hair grew rapidly from his chin to his cheeks, and a pair of wolf ears appeared on his head at the same time: this was a real werewolf transformation, and it was the first time Hao Ren had seen it.

"Much uglier..."

"That's how male werewolves are," Vivian's eyes flashed red, and groups of phantom bats were forming behind her. "As expected of the Eben family's mad dogs. It's been a long time since I've seen these black mists."

A grotesque smile appeared on Kasa Eben's distorted face: "So you bloodsuckers aren't isolated from the world either. I thought there weren't many vampires who knew about the 'Eben family' anymore!"

"Nonsense! When I fought the first Black Mist werewolf, he couldn't even write the two words 'Eben'!" Vivian distracted the other party with words, while her attacks didn't stop at all. A large group of bats rushed towards the werewolf in the distance like a whirlwind. Wherever the bats went, it was as if they were swept by a metal storm, and even steel and cement instantly turned to ash. "I beat your ancestors!"

Hao Ren's forehead was covered with sweat: age is indeed a woman's best weapon, although Vivian's use of this weapon is a bit strange...

Vivian's words made Kasa Eben a little dazed. He probably thought of some rumors in the family for a moment, but even so, he was not distracted. The werewolf roared and tore his claws towards Vivian's bat swarm. Only a harsh sound of air tearing was heard, and the cloud-like bat swarm was directly split in half by a substantial wind pressure. Kasa's majestic body, which had swelled like a beast, pounced out from the torn bat swarm and lunged at Vivian in mid-air: "What do you mean?!"

Vivian didn't dodge at all, but just showed a mocking smile, and turned into countless bats and scattered just as Kasa's claws were about to grab her hair.

"Small trick!" The werewolf roared, and a strong black mist suddenly filled his body. This black mist spread towards Vivian's bat swarm as if it had life, and its spreading speed was no less than that of the bats' flight. Almost eighty or ninety percent of the bats were shrouded in mist in an instant. They rushed left and right, finally breaking free from the entanglement before the smoke completely gathered. Vivian reassembled her body hundreds of meters away, looking at Kasa Eben with some surprise. She didn't expect this "junior" in her eyes to be so difficult to deal with.

Werewolves are not good at magic, but as a supplement, they more or less have some talent skills to make up for this shortcoming, such as curses, stealth, and shadow power. The Eben family is a very famous clan among werewolves, and their talent ability is this strange and unpredictable black mist. These black mists don't have much effect on attacks, but they have very troublesome spatial attributes, and are quite useful for transferring objects or blocking certain areas. Although Vivian claims to have beaten the ancestors of the Eben family, to be honest, she really doesn't want to entangle with these troublesome black mists too much—after all, she likes to bully the stupid and rough side of werewolves. It's okay for a mage to abuse a warrior, but fighting a magic swordsman is a headache.

"Actually rushed out..." Kasa Eben was covered in black mist, and with his fierce look, he looked like an evil ghost. "You're not an ordinary vampire, tell me your name and let's have a fair fight."

"What era is this, who's playing that game with you!" Vivian condensed a blood-colored spear in her hand and threw it at Kasa Eben with force, "Die!"

The moment the blood-colored spear appeared, the expression on Kasa Eben's face suddenly changed. He had dared to resist all of Vivian's previous attacks, but this time he hurriedly turned his entire body into a large cloud of smoke and scattered in all directions. The blood-colored spear seemed to have a life of its own and made a turn in the air the moment the enemy scattered, piercing into the nearest cloud of smoke with a "hiss".

A smell of burning fur came from the smoke, and then both the spear and the smoke dissipated at the same time.

The remaining few clouds of smoke quickly gathered in another place. Kasa Eben reappeared, but this time he looked much more embarrassed than before. A large area of hair on his face was burnt, his coat was torn, and a stream of blood flowed from his forehead, the blood shining with an abnormal red light.

"You are Vivian Ansester, the Countess of the Summoned Red Moon..." Kasa Eben wiped the blood from his face with force, and his already beastly body swelled up a circle, as if he was fully stimulating his potential as a werewolf to deal with the strong enemy. "You're still alive?!"

Vivian crossed her arms and fell gracefully from the air: "Oh, come to think of it, I used to have such a title?"

Hao Ren saw that the two were fighting quite lively, and Vivian seemed to be in the upper hand, so he didn't need his help. He simply found a place to stay out of the way and watch the show, preparing to fire a black gun when he had the chance, or take the opportunity to sneak into the warehouse and find Lily when Kasa Eben wasn't paying attention. As a result, the conversation between the two sides of the battle aroused his curiosity, and he almost fell to the ground when he heard Vivian's reply: This vampire sister, can you not fall from the sky with such an elegant posture before saying such a thing?

The expression on Kasa Eben's face was also a bit strange, but much stronger than Hao Ren. He slowly distanced himself from Vivian while maintaining vigilance: "So it really is you... Can't remember your own name, wandering around in the world, even the vampires don't know which branch you are a member of, so they just gave you a countess title... Just like the records in the family."

Vivian showed a very interested expression: "Then don't rush to fight, tell me how your family recorded me? I really can't remember what happened back then."

Is this the time to chat? Of course not. No matter what Vivian thinks, Kasa Eben will definitely not talk nonsense with the enemy, especially when the one in front of him is the notoriously weird and difficult Countess. He remembered the words in the family records that warned future generations, so he lowered his head, his whole body surrounded by black mist, and rushed up directly!

Vivian flapped her giant wings and returned to mid-air: "Tch... Then I'll wait until I beat you down before asking. My condition is unprecedentedly good today!"
