Chapter 623 The Arrival of the Vampire
?Four more days have passed since Vicente thought up the idea of creating train lines through the Scott Province.
This plan was only in the realm of ideas for the moment, while the group focused on dealing with what was most important in the short term.
But the blacksmiths who knew about the plan were already thinking about it, imagining what kind of metal alloy would be interesting to use for the rails and railcars. Driving force was also a critical point that even Benson was thinking about.
That was all they had done these days regarding the experimental train line between Millfall and Vila Martell.
Meanwhile, Vicente had produced with the help of those blacksmiths a total of 4 of the 6 robotic armors he had materials to produce.
Some of the family's Low-level Mages were already wearing these 4th-grade armor and were standing around Saltstar City, waiting for the vampire to arrive.
Vicente wanted the enemy to take at least two more days to reach him while he finished producing the last pieces of armor he could make in the meantime.
Unfortunately, he was destined to be disappointed with his expectations!
On the afternoon of that day, the terrible creature would arrive in Saltstar City, bringing the darkness of his heart to this coastal area!
...
In the middle of the afternoon today, the vampire who had been chasing Vicente for months finally stopped in front of this city, soon shaping a hungry smile on his face as he smelled Vice.
'You're here!' He promptly realized as he reached the border between the built-up area of this city and the surrounding forest.
As soon as he noticed Vicente's presence in this place, he ignored the scents of Layla and Casey and turned his attention to the scent of his prey.
He also scanned the surroundings, quickly noticing that, apart from Vicente, only one beast in the entire city caught his attention for its power.
For the rest, all the others around this city were ordinary to him, the kind of individuals who, if they got in his way, he would destroy with a snap of his fingers.
This being was confident that his enemy was 'alone,' probably having forgotten about such a vampire and thinking he had successfully lost him, the vampire moved on towards the Fuller estate.
As he moved, a series of figures moved along with him!
The journey between the cave where this creature had had his body destroyed, and this city had been neither short nor quick. Amid his journey of pursuit, this creature had fed himself and made new servants!
Vicente didn't know it, but he would soon come across this vampire's group!
...
"Boss, there's someone fast approaching headquarters!"
Suddenly, a shout sounded from the Fuller estate's main communicator, with this magical device repeating the voice of one of the family's guards around the city throughout that residence.
Upon hearing this, Rory, Nina, Eve, and Vicente were there and immediately changed their expressions, imagining the worst.
'The vampire!' Nina thought to herself as Eve and about three of the family's soldiers rushed to her side.
Vicente frowned and gave his signal.
"Get ready to fight!" He said loudly while using a communication device connected to the handsets of many of his men.
The men on the Fuller estate began to move into position, setting up defensive barriers and preparing to use their weapons.
One group took Nina to the safest level of this place, the family vault.
Meanwhile, Rory moved alongside Vicente, already feeling his heart beating faster.
"Put on that armor." Vicente tossed Rory a device with armor that he had already completed about 70% of, but it would still take him at least an hour to finish. "It won't give you my offensive power, but it will give you 4th-grade protection."
"Okay!"
Rory quickly did as he was supposed to before following Vicente outside the estate.
When they arrived outside, they saw the surroundings totally different from what they normally were. At least a dozen snipers were in visible positions in the adjacent buildings of this city area, while Onyx was already in fighting position along with two men dressed in robotic 4th-grade armor.
The other two were on the city's outskirts, moving towards this place, as were several of Vicente's subordinates and allies.
However, the enemies would reach them before the entire local group willing to fight reached the area!
Just two minutes after the warning from one of the family, the being with white hair, red eyes, and pale skin that shone like a diamond in the daylight appeared in front of Vicente's group.
He wasn't alone. Around 20 late 3rd-stage beings, members of various races, and some vampires like himself were behind him.
Vicente and his companions were not fooled by some of these vampires. Their aura was very different from their enemy's, so it was somewhat obvious that these were recently transformed vampires.
Even so, their auras were terrible, and they looked very powerful.
"You really came all this way. If you had chosen to forget that unfortunate encounter, you would have survived to see The Purification. But I'm afraid you're tired of your life." Vicente said as he took a step forward from his staff while the people nearby realized the problem and began to flee in desperation.
The vampire looked at Vicente with even more bloodlust as he saw the young man stronger and more interesting than the last time he had seen Vice.
"Do you know that? Hehehe, but it doesn't matter. You'll be the one who dies soon, young monster. But I thank you for strengthening this magical essence that will soon nourish me." The vampire said as he licked his lips maliciously.
Vicente said nothing more and then showed his pentagrams while Rory and his men in the surrounding area did the same.
Torne was fully prepared to help his master. In contrast, the lamia on a necklace around Vicente's neck couldn't help but get nervous in this situation.
When the vampire saw them showing their pentagrams and preparing to attack, he moved with his men, attacking first, confident in the strength he had built up.
Vicente was stronger than in their last encounter, but the vampire was also stronger!
However, Vicente's strength was not all that he had prepared for that day!
As the vampire group moved in and the Fuller family men fired their 4th-grade weapons, two men dressed in 4th-grade robotic armor moved in tandem with Vicente.
