My Liver Experience in the World of Cthulhu

Chapter 147 Calculation
Nick took a few steps forward to meet his teammates and reminded: "Be careful of the enemy's illusions."

It was hard for Vlad to make out the shape of the head, but how could he not be familiar with hair like that.

The anger of being fooled and the secret vigilance arose in his heart. He made a gesture of reaching out to pick it up, but the real body had already left.

He avoided the flying heads and attacked the man who killed his bride.

"Close your eyes!" Kroun stopped running instantly, closed his eyes and shouted.

Nick immediately stopped and closed his eyes, and Jason followed him as he was told.

Liya and Lorraine's movements slowed down for half a beat. They felt a golden sun shining in front of their eyes. They closed their eyes reflexively, and tears streamed down their faces.

They felt that the world was completely white and their eyes were extremely painful.

The little vampires and big bats squatting above the cave, staring at the situation below with wide red eyes, screamed, and the stimulation of the bright light directly blinded their eyes.

The situation of the big bats was better, but their eyes were irritated and they were temporarily blinded; the situation of the little vampires was much worse, their eyes were burned out, their bodies seemed to be exposed to sunlight, and their skin suffered minor burns.

These monsters flew around in fear, and "collision" accidents occurred from time to time in the sky.

"Ah", Vlad howled in fear and anger like a girl being bullied by a bully.

The vigilant vampire heard the enemy shouting to close his eyes and closed his own eyes. What he didn't expect was that something unexpected happened around him.

Although he avoided the head thrown by the enemy, he did not get far. Marika's head exploded, and the brilliant golden light penetrated his eyelids, stinging his eyes.

His nearly transparent body was exposed to the golden flames, as if he had been standing in the sun for a long time at noon.The half of his body closest to the explosion was partially carbonized, and not an inch of skin on his body was intact.

To make matters worse, holes as big as fists were burned out on his wing membranes, and he could no longer maintain his flying state and fell from the air.

. . . .

Time went back to the moment when Crown had just returned. On the way, he thought of a feasible solution.

During the time before Vlad joined the battlefield, he no longer cast Sunfire, but instead used sword skills to release Blade Storm.The two vampires did not communicate more. He felt that the other party did not know that he had an attack method like Sun Flame Technique.

He used Yang Yan Technique to activate five golden light talismans and stuffed them into the head's mouth. It wasn't that he didn't want to stuff more, but the golden light talisman activated by Yang Yan Technique became unstable and the talisman hit an obstacle. It will explode automatically, or it will explode automatically after waiting for a few seconds.

He needs to calculate the delay time of the explosion, and at the same time ensure that his operations are not seen by the enemy, and he also needs to enter the enemy's field of vision normally and calmly.

You must be careful when placing the talisman in Marika's mouth. If you move too much, the golden light talisman will explode directly, and the joke will be too big.

It was a bit too late to put in more golden light talismans. After putting in five golden talismans, he immediately walked out of the dark corner, seemingly striding forward into everyone's sight, but the hand holding Marika's head remained steady.

Later, when he threw the head out, he also used clever force, fearing that the "homemade bomb" would explode directly if he used too much force.

When the golden light shone, Crown opened his eyes.

The strategy worked. Perhaps it was the Sun Flame Technique that made the vampires more restrained. The effect achieved after the five golden light talismans were exploded in a chain was beyond his expectations.

He continued to bombard the falling vampire with Sun Flame Technique, and golden light shone in the cave again.

When Nick opened his eyes, he happened to see a vampire whose body was riddled with holes transforming into a group of black bats scattering around.

But the wings of these bats appear to be much weaker, and their escape speed may not be half as fast.

Dazzling golden flames bloomed among the bats, swallowing up many bats that had no time to escape.

He threw his shield, and this time the flaming disk knocked down many small bats.

At this time, Jason also rushed over, and saw him flying forward, stepping on the flying shield to gain strength, and leaping high.

The fire-colored flames ignited his long sword, and he waved the weapon into a crimson full moon, and a large number of small bats were strangled and fell.

Less than half of the little bats escaped the attack, and they turned into clouds of smoke, reuniting into a whole in the distance.

Vlad's appearance at this time was not to mention how miserable he was. Half of his body was black and the other half was black. One of his flesh wings was completely broken, hanging weakly on the ground.

Green smoke was rising all over his body, his skin was dry and blood red, and his whole body had lost weight, like a skinned frog.

A big hole was corroded on the left side of his face, exposing his bloody gums. His left eye was also missing, with smoke filling the dark eye sockets.

At this time, he was unable to change his body or fly again.

In just one minute, he fell from the clouds to the dust.

One moment, he was a hunter teasing his opponent, but now, he was the prey being chased like a lost dog.

Vlad knew that his injuries were too severe and that his speed had been reduced too much.

In a sense, his injuries were more serious now than when he was encircled and suppressed by the bishop of the Church of the God of Fire more than 100 years ago. The scorching injury from the golden light reminded him of the feeling of being exposed to the sun while escaping.

Although his blood source core was shattered back then, other parts of his body were not harmed and he was able to escape despite the severe pain.

Now that his body was severely damaged, he knew that he could no longer escape and could not escape. The only way to survive was to turn back and fight.

His current injuries may seem horrific, but the blood source core has not been damaged. As long as he can drink blood, he can recover in a short time.

A little vampire's eyes were burned out, and it flew around aimlessly. Unfortunately, it flew to its father.

Vlad raised his arm, grabbed its wings and pulled it to his mouth, then opened his mouth and bit its neck.

The little vampire was like a balloon with a hole in it, and its body shriveled up quickly.

"what"

Vlad let out several short screams as he summoned his legion of monsters.

On the one hand, they want these monsters to block the enemy's attack, and on the other hand, they want to use the blood of these monsters to recover quickly.

But
Vlad looked up and looked at the big bats and little vampires flying around in the air like headless flies, and felt numb.

. . . .

While running, Kroen released the Golden Armor Technique to his two teammates. He whispered a few words to the two of them, and his teammates nodded.

The miserable appearance of the vampire has been captured by everyone, and now is the time to beat up the drowned dog.

Jason has already rushed towards the vampire. He only needs to jump a few more times to attack the vampire who is standing still.

Crown followed closely with the remaining three golden light talismans in his hands, while Nick carried his shield and fell at the back.

Vlad's right eye flashed fiercely, and he no longer hesitated. He let out a deep roar and rushed forward. He decided to lick the blood with the tip of the knife in exchange for his life.

As long as he was fighting with the enemy at the front, the enemy would not dare to unleash that kind of golden flame attack.He would drain the Scarface's blood to recover from his injuries, and then use the enemy's corpse as a shield to deal with the next attack.

In the previous battle, he had basically figured out the enemy's strength. Scarface's strength was also one of the strongest among the second-level extraordinary beings.

The blood of stronger people contains more energy. He estimated that if the enemy was really sucked dry, at least the injuries on the flesh wings would be fully recovered. At that time, he would still have the final say whether to fight or leave.

Jason strode forward, his long sword shining with red light, and the tip of the sword pierced the enemy's chest, where the vampire's heart was.

Vlad's eyes flashed with cruelty and hatred, and the expression on his face was extremely distorted.He hugged his hands, endured the severe pain all over his body, and rushed towards his opponent at the maximum speed he could currently achieve.

He did not make any defense. The enemy's sword would pierce his chest, but he would definitely be able to catch the attacker.

After being a third-level Vampire for many years, he was able to control the movement of his own internal organs. If you simply thought that inserting a sharp weapon into his chest and heart would destroy the blood core, that would be a fool's errand.

The distance between Jason and the vampire quickly closed, and they were about to collide.

Suddenly, Jason dwarfed and jumped to the side, avoiding the vampire's attack.

In Vlad's eyes, pieces of pale golden talismans connected in a line were already in front of him, and the stern expression on his face immediately became stiff.

He twisted his body desperately to dodge to the side, but because the injury affected his speed, all his efforts were in vain.

Vlad let out a shrill scream and was bathed in golden flames.

Jason held the sword in both hands and charged out from the side. He unleashed Zhanfeng and slashed diagonally with all his strength. Like a hot knife cutting butter, the sharp blade flashed past the vampire's head.

The next second, the two pieces of Vlad's head separated, and the upper half slid off automatically.

Nick charged forward, jumped up high, raised the flail in his hand and smashed it down on the enemy's neck.

The vampire was knocked to the ground. The priest was still angry and kept raising his flail to attack the enemies who were unable to fight back.

Crown couldn't help but secretly gasped.

Jason walked over with a grin: "When you were out, the most aggrieved person was the captain. He couldn't use his strength. He wanted to come back for revenge."

Liya and Lorraine came over: "Is this the end?"

"Crown's attack methods are very restrained against vampires, and they cause enough damage in a short period of time. There is no room for their proud recovery power to be used," Jason explained.

He raised his head and looked at the group of monsters that had become much thinner in the sky, and a trace of joy flashed across his eyebrows: "It's time to collect the spoils."

After Nick swung his weapon dozens of times, he finally stopped.

Crown walked over and saw that the vampire's limbs had turned into meat, and only the torso remained relatively intact.

"I thought you were going to smash his whole body to pieces."

"How is that possible?" the priest wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with a relieved smile: "The blood source core of a high-level vampire is very valuable. How can we survive without trophies after winning a battle?"

Crown took out the scalpel: "Let me study the vampire's body structure."

"Leave it to you, I'll go see if Nelson and the others can be saved."

. . . .The bodies of Nelson, Marla and Geo were placed side by side in a crevice. Nick covered them with a blanket and sprinkled some holy water on it.

Not knowing the way forward, and unable to find dry firewood in the underground caves, these team members who died in the battle could only stay and wait to make plans later.

Nick led everyone to pray softly: "Pray for the dead and ask the merciful God of Fire to send angels to lead the lost lambs to the eternal kingdom of God."

After praying, Nick said: "Rest for half an hour, and then clean the battlefield. Camp in the vampire's lair tonight."

Everyone began to sit down and eat dry food to replenish their physical strength and energy.

After Kroun devoured half of his meal, he sat up cross-legged and meditated on the golden light spell.

After visualizing for three Mahasimas, he summoned the golden wall.

[Blade Storm (Secret Skill): 81/3000; Level [-]] (Rotate the sword on its own axis, causing damage to all approaching enemies. Currently, it is just a magical skill to torture vegetables.)
Crown opened his eyes, slightly speechless.

This is a green skill, which means there will be more potential to be tapped in the future.

The disadvantage is that it is not flexible enough and its attack power is scattered. Is it suitable for dealing with a large number of low-level targets? I don’t know what height it can reach after upgrading.

After the break, everyone began to clean the battlefield in search of loot.

They found those big bats and small vampires that were obviously much stronger. Only these could reach the extraordinary level and high-quality materials could be obtained from them.

Crown held the scalpel and moved it like flying skills, skillfully breaking down the usable materials.The fleshy wings of the big bat can be used as the lining of the armor, and the little vampire who has reached the extraordinary level can take out the blood source core.

His speed was so fast that others had just peeled off the skin of a bat, and he had already dismembered three or four of them.

After more than an hour of busy work, his skill proficiency as a demon scholar has increased a lot.

[Devil Scholar: 436/5000; Level [-]]

In fact, in the last 10 minutes, dissecting these two monsters could no longer provide him with proficiency.Now, he feels like he's more than capable of becoming an expert on bats and little vampires.

He already knows the physical structure of these two monsters well, and knows how to use the smallest amount of force to make them lose their combat effectiveness without killing them.

In the end, the team obtained three second-order blood source cores, 56 first-order blood source cores, and several advanced bat wing membranes.

70% of the spoils obtained through collective actions will be distributed equally among all members, and the remainder will be given as rewards to individuals who play a greater role.

After harvesting the spoils, everyone started heading towards the vampire lair.

. . . .

The investigation team had searched most of the vampire's lair and found no valuable loot. They were a little disappointed.

Nick held an oil lamp in one hand and a shield in the other, and pushed open the door of the crypt. This was the last place where there was no search.

Light shines into this dark area, which is filled with stench.

When the priest saw the crowd crowding into the darkness, he sighed softly: "I am the priest of the church, and you are saved."

Someone blocked the light with his hand, turned his face and tried to open his eyes: "Are you saved?"

After being out of the sun for a long time, it took him a while to adapt to the light.

"Yes, we are saved. When you get used to the light and get out of this cave, I will wait for you outside." Nick put down the oil lamp and turned around to leave this smelly place.

Half an hour later, all the humans trapped by the vampires walked out of the cave. Many people hugged each other and sobbed softly.

Nick ordered them to sit in a circle and place an oil lamp between them.

He looked at these skinny people and said, "Tell me who you are, how you were caught here, and how long you have been here."

"Father, I am a resident who migrated to Rhine City with the church. I have been captured for two days. One night during the migration, the camp was attacked by a large number of flying monsters. The monsters caught me and took me to this cave. .”

These people told the story of how they were caught, and Croun and others nodded secretly as they listened.

There is indeed an exit to the outside world here, so they don't need to return to the passage under the castle to dig holes.

After listening to some people's stories, Nick took out a bottle of No. [-] holy water and mixed it into the kettle: "Everyone takes a sip to restore some strength."

Most people experienced strong vomiting after drinking the holy water, and one person even had a strong rejection reaction.

The veins on the man's face were exposed, and his eyes were bright red with blood.

He suddenly stood up and rushed outside, but Croun grabbed his neck and pushed him to the ground.

The priest poured another bottle of holy water into him, but the man's whole body convulsed for a while and then died.

"He must have stayed in the gray fog for too long and suffered too much pollution. Ordinary people cannot bear the pollution for a long time." Nick sighed and asked, "What time is it now?"

"It's one o'clock in the morning," Croun gritted his teeth, "Why don't you look at your watch?"

The priest said with a "hehe" smile: "Because I have a faster way."

He prayed briefly for the deceased and issued new orders: "Give some dry food to these people and rest for half an hour. We will travel all night."

At five o'clock in the morning, the team walked out of the cave.After identification, this is the hill behind Bran Castle.

Jason and Leah left the team to find Del and Lucas who were left behind.

If they were not notified in time, the team would have to stay in the wild and wait for rescue, but they did not carry much supplies and could not sustain the consumption of so many people.

. . . .

Lucas drove, and the tractor-trailer pulled a car full of people.

Krahn sat in the passenger seat, playing with his carbine, shooting at targets outside the car. It had become his instinct to seize every available moment to improve his proficiency in various skills.

His shooting skills will not be greatly reduced depending on the firearm he uses. After a few trial shots, he found the feeling of a sharpshooter.

However, he is still not able to hit 100% of the targets he wants to hit on the speeding vehicle.

"Are you sure you're not wasting bullets?" Lucas glanced and saw the bullet flying past the bark of the tree.

"I was practicing shooting," Crown said with a smile, "Do you still think you were just lucky that I won last time?"

"It's very possible," Lucas said unconvinced. "Let's compare it some time and let our teammates bear witness."

After saying this, he fell into silence, and two of his teammates could no longer be seen.

Crown was aware of the other party's mood, but didn't know how to comfort him. His teammate Nelson died in the first mission, and the atmosphere in the car was a bit heavy.

After a while, Crown continued to pick up the carbine and practice shooting, and the proficiency number kept jumping.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, the tractor-trailer returned to the underground garage of the Seventh Precinct. Nick and Leah rushed to report the work situation to their superiors. The other team members assisted in handling the problem of the refugees and handed them over to the patrol team.

The remaining three members of the team returned to the lounge, and Crown released Buster.

The kitten has been staying in the animal bag today and has been suffocated for a long time. Now it comes out and runs wildly in the room.

Del was a little silent, and his relationship with Nelson was pretty good.

Jason lay comfortably on the sofa and asked, "How are you planning your vacation?"

"Holiday?" Kroon was a little confused. He had just started working and could he have a holiday?
"Yes." Jason took out his unfinished cigar, lit it, and took a heavy drag.

He exhaled a straight stream of smoke and continued:
"We have killed two third-level vampires, and both teams have lost their troops. We will definitely arrange a few days of vacation. I estimate it will be three to five days. In these days, the bureau will arrange new players for us. We have to bring in rookies again. ,Really annoying."

"The casualty rate among investigators is said to be quite high. Aren't you used to bringing in new people?"

"No, no, no, it's true that the casualty rate of newly integrated teams is high. How could a team with a truly cooperative team have team members die so often. When I was following Captain Fanny."

Crown smiled and interrupted: "The members of Captain Fannie's team are all elites trained by the church since childhood, right? What level of transcendent are they?"

Jason was a little speechless. The original team was all elite second-level members.

"If there is a holiday, I am going to find a friend and inquire about the whereabouts of my next relative." Croun said about his plan. When he first entered the Rhine City, there were other things that delayed him. Now that he has settled down, he can take his time. Dealing with leftovers.

"Looking for someone, what kind of relative? How long have you not contacted him? Where does he live?" Jason patted his chest and smiled: "Although I am a soldier of the church, I still have some acquaintances in the patrol headquarters. of."

"Haha, then I'm asking you. Find my sister, Tiffany Moya Wilkerson. She has been married to Rodney Wilkerson for seven years. The last time we saw each other was two years ago. I just Know they live in the Bolton area.”

"Bolton Area," Jason repeated and nodded, "No problem, I'll cover it. How should I contact you when I have news?"

"Del and I live at 211 Rose Street, Birmingham."

"Okay, I'll let you know when there's news."

"Thank you, let's have a drink then."

The two talked for a while, and Jason ran to catch up on his sleep. Crown didn't feel much sleepy, so he sat cross-legged on the sofa and meditated on the golden light spell.

It wasn't until five o'clock in the afternoon that Nick came back after reporting his work.

"The director gave us a five-day holiday. Let's have a good rest these days. Our trophies were purchased by the bureau at market prices and will be distributed when the holiday is over."

Del asked: "What to do with those teammates who died in the battle?"

"Suppression troops will be sent out tomorrow, and the war dead will be properly resettled. Does Nelson have any relatives?"

"Yes, there is a younger brother."

Nick nodded: "The pension will be distributed to the family of the deceased. In the future, when selecting public officials, the family of the deceased will be given priority."
