Chapter 152 -152: Fishing for the Blood Race!_1
The ecology of St. Land World, deep underground.
Compared to the cavern ecology beneath Ramore.
The underground city of St. Land, due to the influence of the multiple layers of St. Land and the world’s innate ecology.
The subterranean space here is even more vast.
As a result, this provides the Blood Race with tremendous room to operate.
Along the way, you’d encounter massive fissures, a hundred meters high, teeming with Vampire Bats, their numbers beyond counting.
No wonder Hilor cautioned Tuck while he was copying the magic map,
“Even though you’re a wizard, you shouldn’t carelessly venture into open areas that would expose you; once discovered by the Blood Race, those Vampire Bats could easily kill you.”
Sharp and faint squeaking sounds filled this vast underground space, like a dense net enveloping everything within.
Any Transcendent who intruded into this region would struggle to escape the probing of this acoustic web.
And at this moment.
In the dark, damp depths.
Tuck, in his Shadow State, stood noiselessly in the corner of a pile of rubble.
The soundwaves surging around Tuck passed silently through his Shadow State, without causing any unusual ripples.
In the echolocation system of the bloodthirsty bats, Tuck was completely invisible.
It was precisely for this reason that Tuck could delve deep underground.
Meanwhile, in a hidden corner, Tuck scrutinized a sizable Blood Race Castle on the distant cliff.
There were plenty of Blood Race inside.
And for this journey, Tuck’s target was this multitude of Blood Race members.
Of course, the bats overhead were also a usable resource for Tuck.
After gazing intently for a while, Tuck slowly retracted his gaze to focus on the giant pillars and Barrier walls around him.
“My stronghold will be built near the Blood Race Castle.”
“Even they wouldn’t imagine someone daring enough to hunt right at their doorstep.”
After mulling over this for a moment.
Tuck began to move.
In a secluded corner, using his Shadow State, Tuck squeezed into the depths of a fissure.
Once he found a suitable position, Tuck took out a small wooden panel for the Barrier Ritual.
He lit a candle and began to murmur, invoking the mighty Barrier.
Soon, the power of the Barrier followed the offerings and the ritual fire, cascading down.
This scene was promptly noticed by the bats within the fissures.
“Squeak squeak squeak…”
The bats in the gaps immediately started to chirp.
But quickly, the rock walls on either side of Tuck, like soft dough, bulged and then gathered at the edges, sealing Tuck off completely from the outside world.
The Vampire Bats that had started to stir sniffed around for a bit but didn’t find anything and quieted down soon after.
Currently, Tuck, having absorbed the power of the Iron-coupled wall, had reached an extremely high threshold.
Tuck’s own Steam Wizard ecology had begun to show the contour of the Barrier state of the Iron-coupled wall at its periphery.
This was a very good sign and one that Tuck had long anticipated.
Transcendent ecology!
The more complex and powerful, the better.
The balance of various transcendent ecologies allowed Tuck to combat even stronger ecological powers.
Now, with Tuck owning a sufficiently powerful Iron-coupled wall force,
He could now utilize the Barrier Ritual to carve out space within the walls and fortifications, navigating freely.
With the Rune Hand, he picked up the small wooden panel for the ritual.
Thus, manipulating the Barrier Ritual, he treated the rock as if it were water, and the space he carved out as bubbles, commencing the relocation within.
With phase ability for precise positioning.
Soon, Tuck entered a location about twenty meters deep within the rock wall.
After swiftly expanding the interior space,
Tuck began a series of operations to construct the internal environment of the wall’s Barrier.
Previously, Tuck had done the same in the small rented room he occupied.
Now, returning to the task, he was well-practiced.
About two hours later,
A vast and secretive Barrier chamber with air ducts was established by Tuck.
Pacing back and forth in the Barrier chamber and feeling it out, Tuck nodded with satisfaction.
A Barrier chamber combining the Iron-coupled wall with the Silver Holy Barrier.
Even if discovered by a Sixth Rank of the Blood Race,
Tuck could still escape with ease.
Before arriving here, Tuck had already left many phase nodes on the way, and escaping would be very simple.
Besides, the walls themselves, due to the nature of St. Land, were incredibly tough.
Given the Blood Race’s ineptness at siege tactics, it was unlikely they could breach the defenses.
“The stage is set, and now it’s time for the main characters to make their entrance… hmm, time to capture the Blood Race.”
With this thought in mind, Tuck employed a Phase Transition to reach another higher tunnel some distance from the Barrier chamber.
This passageway, located at the upper wind entrance of the Blood Race Castle and rather narrow with a diameter of only about three to four meters, was very suitable for being a trap corridor.
After a slight modification of this trap corridor using the Barrier Ritual,
Tuck flipped his hand and took out the fresh blood he had prepared earlier.
This was the blood of a Second Rank female Transcendent who had not been deflowered.
The price wasn’t cheap, but it had a fatal attraction for those of the Blood Race, and after Tuck dropped three or four droplets of blood on the ground,
he seamlessly blended into the darkness of the corner using Shadow State.
Even though the Blood Race possessed the ability to see at night,
with Tuck’s current stealth control capabilities, he was confident that Blood Race members below Level 40 would not be able to see him.
Before he knew it, half an hour had passed.
Tuck’s brows furrowed slightly.
“Was the amount of blood dropped too little? Should I intensify it a bit?”
“But if I increase the dosage and a bunch of them come at once, that could be troublesome.”
Just as Tuck was pondering whether to add a bit more or to continue waiting,
a huge bat with jet-black fur and a wingspan of a full meter landed, and amidst surges of dark source mist, this Level 15 Bat Form transformed into a human.
He appeared to be seventeen or eighteen years old, with a clear and handsome face and fair skin.
The young member of the Blood Race sniffed deeply twice in the air.
Instantly, a thirst for blood surged within him.
“Filled with the rich scent of a young girl and the sweet aroma of fresh blood.”
“Perhaps an injured human girl who has fled here?”
For a moment, the young member of the Blood Race faintly recalled a fairy tale told by an old Blood Race member during a gathering, about a human girl willingly offering her blood and life to the Blood Race in exchange for the wondrous first embrace.
“Hmm…”
While fantasizing about this enchanting tale, this Level 15 Blood Race member had just thought of further investigating when he realized he was rapidly shrinking.
“What’s going on? Haven’t I fully mastered the human form? Why am I automatically transforming back into a bat form?”
But in the next moment, the young member of the Blood Race noticed something was off.
“Damn… this isn’t the bat form, this is… baa baa!”
The young member of the Blood Race let out a trembling bleat.
When he looked down to inspect himself, he found he had turned into a sheep.
The next moment, the young Blood Race Sheep was aggressively pushed by a hand.
The Blood Race Sheep felt the space around him stretch suddenly, and his vision blurred.
By the time he stabilized his stance,
he found himself already inside a huge enclosed cave.
And this place… it seemed like a slaughterhouse!
A trap!
This was a despicable trap set specifically by humans!
The young member of the Blood Race roared in anger.
But all he could do was helplessly emit furious bleats.
Sheep Transformation, a Rune Hand’s Phase Transition, directly sent the target into the previously prepared barrier chamber.
This move was executed by Tuck with smooth proficiency.
“Nice, nice!”
Tuck chuckled softly to himself.
“Just that the efficiency is a little slow; a slight increase in intensity should do.”
After dripping a few more drops of blood, Tuck continued to wait.
This time, in less than five minutes,
two Blood Race Bats flew into the interior of the passage.
One was a Level 29 Blood Race member nearing adulthood, and the other was a Level 18 juvenile member of the Blood Race.
“Be careful; there are human blood traces.”
After scanning around, the Level 29 member of the Blood Race said in a low voice.
The next moment, the Level 29 member of the Blood Race had turned into a sheep.
The Level 18 member of the Blood Race hadn’t even had time to react when,
“Bang!”
A fierce punch, filled with terrifying power, went straight through his skull into his brain and deep into his soul.
The powerful effect of Physical Hypnosis perfectly manifested on this Level 18 member of the Blood Race.
“Having this third hand is convenient.”
“One transformation into a sheep, and one hypnosis.”
Tuck, hidden in the shadowy corner, began using blood to fish for members of the Blood Race.
One, directly turned into a sheep,
Two, a combination of transformation and hypnosis.
Three or more,
then Tuck would simply use the power of the Barrier Ritual to close off the passageways on both sides, then take his time to deal with them.
As time went on, the number of Blood Race members Tuck captured kept rising.
