Chapter 5

**************************************************************************************************************

"Wait, so... I'm already a vampire?" Wang Dong suddenly thought of something and pointed at himself, asking somewhat helplessly.

"In theory, yes..." Aisabel said this with a bit of hesitation, as she suddenly realized that making such a change to the other party's race without their knowledge might make them angry.

Because, in the universe, many races place a great deal of importance on the concept of "race," to the point where some races would get angry if their race name was called incorrectly. For this reason, the Fourth-Class Demon Hunter, the iron-blooded, cold-blooded vampire, Aisabel, felt a sense of panic in her heart.

How long had it been since she felt such an emotion? Aisabel didn't have the time to think about it. She looked at Wang Dong's face with a hint of tension—she was afraid that Wang Dong would be angry.

"Eh~~?" Wang Dong looked at himself in disbelief, pinched his face, then looked at his wrist, touched his neck, and even placed his fingers on his wrist to check his pulse, muttering, "So I've become a vampire? There's no blue skin, exposed veins, or a grim face..."

"Th-That... Wang Dong..." Aisabel tugged at Wang Dong's sleeve with a worried look, saying, "Aren't you angry?"

"Eh? Angry?" Wang Dong was taken aback, looked down at Aisabel, frowned, and asked in confusion, "Why would I be angry?"

"Because I changed your race without your consent..." Aisabel lowered her head and murmured, "I turned you into a vampire."

"Oh, you mean that!" Wang Dong suddenly understood. So this was what Aisabel was worried about? Looking at Aisabel's anxious face, Wang Dong couldn't help but show a tender smile that even he didn't notice, and he reached out to pat Aisabel's head, saying, "This is better. Because you turned me into a vampire, I now have the power to protect the things I want to protect. I should thank you."

"Ugh~" Aisabel touched the top of her head where Wang Dong had patted it, and muttered softly, "What's this... Using a head pat at a time like this is a bit too much, isn't it..."

Wang Dong, who didn't hear Aisabel's muttering, turned around after saying that and looked at the man with a grim face, holding the Xin Du in his hand.

"Now, it's time to deal with our business." Wang Dong smiled lightly, raised the Xin Du, and pointed the blade at the man, his deep voice echoing on the empty rooftop: "Be honest and accept your fate."

The man took a few heavy breaths. Just then, he suddenly felt as if an invisible hand was tightly gripping his neck, making him feel an overwhelming sense of suffocation.

This was the bloodline suppression. Although Aisabel also had a high-level bloodline, she had dispersed all her power after coming to Earth, so she had also lost her bloodline suppression, becoming an ordinary person with ample "theoretical knowledge."

But now, after Wang Dong accepted Aisabel's inheritance and activated his power, the bloodline suppression naturally came into effect—

You can understand it like this: Wang Dong and Aisabel are both computers, and Aisabel had deleted her drivers, so the computer couldn't start, but the hardware was still top-notch.

But Wang Dong was a computer with poor hardware, yet he had installed the latest drivers, allowing him to run the software.

'Damn, this is a big problem.' The man clenched his teeth. Was he going to be defeated and even killed this time? Was he going to die here?

Wang Dong didn't have the leisure to wait for the man to think, like Aisabel had done. He quickly moved his feet and ran towards the man.

Gripping the hilt of the Xin Du tightly, Wang Dong crouched down during his sprint and then thrust the blade upwards.

'So fast!' The man was startled and quickly leaned back to avoid the blade aimed at his chin. Just as he did this, his face changed—

Because from the corner of his eye, he saw Wang Dong's grip on the Xin Du change from a "push" to a "tight grip," indicating that Wang Dong's next move would be a slash!

"Blood Barrier!" In a split second, the man almost immediately erected a blood-red barrier in front of him, and even before the barrier was fully formed, the Xin Du had already slashed through.

With a "clank," the Xin Du heavily struck the magical barrier, the blade and the magical surface rubbing against each other, causing sparks to fly.

'Close call!' The man took a few steps back, looking at the small cut on the magical barrier, and drew a deep breath—this was the power of the Xin Du? A new player of this level could cut through a defensive magic barrier with the Xin Du?

Without giving the man time to think, Wang Dong, after his attack was blocked, immediately ran around to the man's back. This time, he learned from his previous mistake and didn't slash but thrust the blade straight into the man's back.

"Flame Repel!" The man shouted, and a ring of crimson flames ignited around his waist. The next moment, like a fully inflated balloon, the ring of fire suddenly expanded outward.

"I've got it!" Wang Dong's eyes lit up—he clearly remembered what Aisabel had told him before the battle: Wang Dong, remember, the power of the Xin Du is to break magic. If the opponent uses magic to block your path, infuse it with power and break through it!

"Roar!!" Wang Dong shouted, and a surge of energy from his body flowed into his arm and into the Xin Du. Instantly, the blade of the Xin Du glowed with a brilliant golden light.

It pierced through the wall of fire without any resistance, as if it were not a wall of fire but a photograph of flames.

With a "thud," the sound of a sharp object piercing flesh echoed from in front of Wang Dong. He looked at the Xin Du that had pierced the man's body with a cold expression and let out a slight sigh of relief.

"It's your victory, Wang Dong!" Aisabel was not at all worried that the man would counterattack. She walked lightly to Wang Dong's side and said, "The power of the Xin Du is absolutely lethal to low-level anomalies. He's dead."

As if to verify Aisabel's words, the man, starting from his feet, began to turn into ashes.

"Anomalies?" Wang Dong was curious about this term Aisabel used and looked at her, asking, "Are vampires anomalies?"

"In terms of classification, yes." Aisabel nodded and said, "Vampires, werewolves, and other spirit-like creatures are all anomalies. By extension, there are also things like shikigami."

"Spirits? So, the scorpion spirits and snake spirits in Chinese mythology are all anomalies?" Wang Dong tilted his head, looking at Aisabel, but received a puzzled look from her.

"Right, I forgot you're not from Earth." Wang Dong rubbed his temples and sat down on the ground, somewhat exhausted, muttering, "Ah, everything today has been too shocking."

"Someone is coming, Wang Dong." Aisabel looked at the other side of the rooftop and whispered to Wang Dong, "I have some energy in my body, so I'll hide for a moment."

"Hide... How are you going to hide?" Wang Dong was taken aback and quickly looked around, but unfortunately, due to the man's last move, "Flame Repel," almost everything on the rooftop had been burned to ashes. There was no place to hide, not even a place to lean against.

"Don't worry, I am a symbiotic entity with you, so your shadow can hide me." Aisabel said, and in Wang Dong's incredulous gaze, she slowly sank into her shadow, as if there were a mechanism on the ground.

"Wait, is this real?" Wang Dong quickly knelt down and touched the ground—indeed, it was solid ground, with no mechanism, which undoubtedly proved that Aisabel had truly entered his shadow.

"Come on... Flames and lightning are one thing, but how can I explain this with scientific principles?" Wang Dong's lips twitched, but a voice in his mind made him feel a surge of energy.

"Wang Dong, someone is coming, be careful." A voice suddenly echoed in Wang Dong's mind, as if it were his own "thought." He whispered, "Aisabel, is that you?"

"You don't need to speak out loud. Just imagine talking to me in your mind, and I can receive your message." Aisabel's voice echoed in Wang Dong's mind again.

'Imagine?' Wang Dong muttered and, with the thought of 'I want to talk to Aisabel,' sent his message, "Aisabel, can you hear me?"

"Wow! You have a good understanding!" Aisabel's voice, filled with surprise, came through.
