Super Detective in the Fictional World Chapter 743 - The Blood God Beaten Up

Chapter 743: The Blood G.o.d Beaten Up

Luke raised his head and saw an old man standing on the cross in the air. He was the one who had spoken.

At his words, the prayers of the crowd grew louder and echoed in the hall.

The blue light of the pattern on the walls glowed even brighter.

The figure standing under the pattern shuddered, and the body exuded a blood-red mist which drifted up to the cross.

Luke smiled and took out two smoke grenades from under his cape.

He threw one at the tree root figure and the other at the person in the air.

Bang! Bang!

There was an intense shock wave and the hall was filled with the pungent smell of garlic.

Without waiting for them to react, Luke took out a special crossbow from his back.

Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+

Eight shadows fanned out and shot at the eight people under the eight lines of symbols.

The last bolt flew at the old man on the cross.

The eight people standing under the lines suddenly screamed as they were hit by the arrows one after another. The center of the arrows ballooned up and quickly filled their bodies.

In less than ten seconds, the eight people exploded like balloons that had been filled with too much water. Blood splattered everywhere and swiftly turned into bright sparks that burned to ash.

The old man at the center of the cross suddenly raised his hand and stopped the arrow that had been aimed at his chest. He roared, “No, no!”

As the eight people exploded on the spot, the eight lines of symbols that had been lit up dimmed like a machine that had lost power.

The blood in the carved lines also scattered and turned to dust in the air.

But Luke was looking at the old man with great interest.

He had seen the old man’s face clearly when he entered: It was actually Sheldon Elsworth, the current leader of the Elsworth family.

This was very different from what Luke had guessed.

Elsworth wasn’t a vampire lackey as Luke had thought; Sheldon, who held the highest authority, was a vampire himself.

That wasn’t the main point.

That main point was that most of the eight people whom Luke had killed were Elsworths, and when Luke had entered, Sheldon’s appearance had already started to change from a man in his sixties to a man in his thirties.

His short and thin body also grew taller and brawnier.

But Luke had interrupted this youth recovery process

The moment the eight people died and the light from the symbols disappeared, Sheldon’s transformation immediately stopped.

Huh? Come to think of it, had he destroyed that Blood G.o.d or whatever? Luke wondered.

While he was more wary of this thing, he wasn’t too scared.

He had gained a lot of information on vampires. According to the vampires, the Blood G.o.d wasn’t actually some “G.o.d.”

It was just how they described the perfect state in vampire legends.

In this Blood G.o.d state, vampires were no longer afraid of sunlight, silver weapons and concentrated garlic essence, and their speed and strength were also greatly enhanced.

From this description, it was clear that the main function of this Blood G.o.d state was to make up for the vampire’s weakness, but there was no mention of what this enhancement looked like; it was just described as power on par with the first vampire.

None of the vampires and servants that Luke had interrogated knew how powerful the first vampire was.

Luke didn’t pay much mind to this.

Even vampires were human once, and they had the same bad habits as humans — like vanity and bragging.

But just to be safe, he interrupted the ritual as soon as he entered.

It didn’t matter if he was a Blood G.o.d or not, but a dead Sheldon was definitely the best Sheldon.

Thinking quickly, Luke stuffed his crossbow into his cloak and put it away in his inventory.

On the cross above, the furious Sheldon jumped down as he lunged fiercely at Luke.

The corners of Luke’s mouth curled up under his mask. Why did all these vampires like to soar through the air? This old man didn’t look like he could fly!

When Sheldon lunged at him, Luke suddenly moved to the side, and his wide cloak covered most of his body.

Sheldon felt his vision go dark, and then he felt a sharp pain in his cheek before his body was sent flying sideways.

Boom!

A small part of Sheldon’s body was lodged in the tree root in the center of the round hall.

Just now, Luke had used an irregular movement similar to a capoeira dance move and combined it with a bit of the Chinese skirt leg technique, covering his movements with his cape. He then used the momentum to kick Sheldon in the face.

As Sheldon was sent flying, Luke regained his balance and charged forward.

He grabbed Sheldon’s leg, which had only just started to struggle, and pulled it out, before he turned around and smashed Sheldon onto the ground.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

With a series of bangs, Luke replicated what he had done in the fight against the female vampire in Slovakia as he smashed Sheldon around for a time.

Looking at the muddy Sheldon in his hand, he shook his head inwardly. This old man was just a weakling.

Apart from the fact that Sheldon was more resistant to attacks, his combat skills, combat experience, and reflexes were basically nonexistent. He wasn’t even as good as the female vampire in Slovakia.

Thinking that, Luke drew a bat dart from his waist and slashed it across Sheldon’s neck.

Puchi!

Sheldon’s head fell off.

Luke narrowed his eyes.

A thick stream of blood spurted out of Sheldon’s neck, but instead of scattering, it condensed into a stream that connected his head and neck.

In the blink of an eye, Sheldon’s head was pulled back to his neck by the pillar of blood, until there was only a slight scar which still glowed with flame.

Sheldon cried out in pain.

Luke’s left arm suddenly blurred as he slashed at Sheldon’s body with the bat dart.

Chi! Chi! Chi! Chi!

The sound of flesh being cut rang out as seven or eight b.l.o.o.d.y wounds appeared on Sheldon’s upper body and he fell apart like a broken doll.

But the blood in his body condensed once again and he was stuck back together.

Except for the louder screams, Sheldon didn’t die.

Looking at the wounds that quickly healed the moment those faint flames disappeared, Luke fell into deep thought.

His bat darts were coated with a layer of silver along the edges, specifically for use against vampires.

Ordinary vampires might be killed if they were cut by the bat darts, but against Sheldon, they only slowed down his recovery.

In this regard, Sheldon really did have the characteristics of a Blood G.o.d. He was no longer afraid of silver weapons, and ordinary cold weapons were basically useless.

After suffering the cuts, Sheldon finally understood one thing: Don’t compete in melee abilities with Batman.
