Wow! The item-dropping rate is really high!-Chapter 386: Infiltrate the material world_2
Visible crimson rivulets could be seen flowing backward from the blood pools, which the Bloodletting Vampires had not yet fully emerged from, continuously pouring into their bodies and transforming into an unending supply.
Bai E watched as their health points jumped +1+1 before his eyes, quickly regenerating to full in no time.
It seemed their regeneration ability was very bugged, but neither their defensive power nor their health points appeared particularly high, and it was hard to gauge their attack power for the moment.
Was this the extent of the Bloodletting Vampires’ abilities?
Just like their drop rates—scanty—
[??? (Demon) (Chaos)—"Lucky Hit" kills may drop: Guaranteed (Combat Experience 2000 points); Possible (Spiritual Energy (Bloodthirst): 10).]
Poor to the point of dropping crumbs.
Lower demons from high-dimensional spaces are born from void, hence they possess nothing but the Spiritual Energy that constitutes their essence.
Yet even so, the drop rate offered by these half-real, half-illusory Bloodletting Vampires before him was far less than the one endured by the demon he had encountered when the outburst of Spiritual Energy occurred in high-dimensional space itself, before he had established his Spiritual Energy barrier.
Was it because the adversary had come to the material world, or was it due to the reduction in drop rates caused by his own increase in strength?

Both were possible, or perhaps both were true.
Bai E was not hung up on this point; anyway, if his charge was insufficient...
After several successive loots, he had only recharged to 52/100, and he still needed to find an opportunity to farm more reputation.
As the thought flashed through his mind, Bai E clutched an arrow.
Normally, one would wait for the Bloodletting Vampires to fully ascend from the blood pools, completely moving out of the vague area between high-dimensional space and the material world, before it was appropriate to launch an attack.
When one wishes to attack, they also expose fatal weaknesses; attack is always a two-way street.
Currently still within the bounds of high-dimensional space, their feet in the blood pool, their regeneration almost limitless, attacking them at this moment was clearly not a rational choice.
But... high regeneration ability? Then just blow them away with one arrow!
Total health points at only 200, what are these glass cannons looking down on?
The longbow was drawn.
Instant kill of a hundred!
"Bang!" In an instant, a terrifying critical hit launched at nine locations simultaneously shredded one Bloodletting Vampire’s seemingly intimidating body.
Blood-red fragments violently exploded, sparsely falling into the boiling blood pool, without a single ripple of motion.
[You have completely killed the target, gaining combat experience *40.]
The blood pool was not very large, five Bloodletting Vampires each about the size of three to four-story buildings rising from it consumed almost all of its space.
However, now that Bai E had directly shot one to pieces, no replacement Bloodletting Vampires continued to rise from it.
It seemed that the limitation on their incursion from high-dimensional space to the material world was not a matter of space?
Perhaps... this offering could only summon so many Bloodletting Vampires?
Based on the limited knowledge he had about demons, Bai E silently speculated about all the possibilities of what was happening before him.
"Hurry up..." Bai E glanced at the three players nearby, still trying hard to move those stiff bodies away.
Such ordinary Bloodletting Vampires were not challenging; they didn’t even arouse his desire to fight.
Better to leave them for the players to have their fun than to bully the weak.
"Oh oh~" The three players, who had stared dumbfounded as Bai E blew away a demon with a single arrow, nodded blankly in response.
Full of astonishment in their hearts.
What happened to the invincibility during entry animations?
The massive and ferocious appearance of these demons had indeed filled the air with a formidable aura, reminiscent of the memories of fighting game bosses.
One should know that these bosses during their entrance scenes didn’t even have health bars; now, these demons, who haven’t even fully emerged from the blood pool, obviously fit this bill.
Dai Lian also sneaked in an arrow shot, only to receive roughly the same information as Bai E had seen.
They had health bars, but their health mother fast.
Hitting them was futile.
And yet, before their eyes... this demon they had considered boss-level was killed by a single arrow?
"Gee gee~"
The gap between people is indeed even greater than the gap between people and dogs.
I hope to catch up with the adult’s pace soon!
Dai Lian’s eyes twinkled with longing, not expecting to be stronger than those powerful NPCs in the game; as long as he was stronger than the other players, that would suffice.
Imagine if it had been another player moving the bodies today, and oneself, replacing the adult, shot an arrow that blew up the big BOSS in their eyes—wouldn’t that be absolutely thrilling?
After all, the thrill of gaming comes from comparison.
Consequently, the action of moving the bodies became even more efficient; resolutely carrying out the adult’s instructions was the most pressing task at hand.
"I’ll leave these to you," Bai E immediately instructed.
There’s no need to do it yourself for a mere 40 points of experience.
For oneself, a task that could easily be accomplished with a wave of a hand hardly offered any improvement.
The source of this c𝓸ntent is frёeweɓηovel.coɱ.
Rather than that, why not give the players a tense and exciting BOSS battle, since all the growth they could gain from such fierce competition would ultimately benefit oneself as well?
Why not let them play to earn more than just swinging your hand to chop?
It would take a while to deal with the remaining four Bloodletting Vampires, but afterwards, one could help the players hold off the monsters for a while, and hand over the fight to them when they were free.
Bai E had made the calculations.
He then scanned around, looking for a handy cold weapon to wield.
Bows and arrows could only kill, not hold off the enemy.
To deal with the formidable Vampiric Demonic Sword, Bai E didn’t fancy using his own vulnerable body to fight head-on.
The Bug-Slaying Blade from the barracks might be suitable, but such a heavy weapon was obviously not meant for carrying around.
As for here… he spotted a metal rod of somewhat decent quality.
And sitting on the highest spectator seat, propping up their chins and staring blankly this way were three figures. After all, amidst the crowd of frozen figures standing or kneeling in fear, those calmly sitting in a row, watching this scene with a smile, were too conspicuous.
Nova? What brought them here as well?
"Go for it!" It seemed like Nova noticed Bai E’s gaze; the diminutive figure cupped hands around the mouth and shouted from afar.
Just here to enjoy the show?
Bai E furrowed his brows and shouted back, "Help them move the bodies if you’re free."
Nova leapt up excitedly at once, waving back from a distance, "Okay~"
The grating heavy metal music had long stopped, and ever since the blood pool appeared, the abandoned factory where the arena was located began to vibrate with a low rumbling sound.
It was like the oppressive feeling before a great battle on an ancient battlefield, the heavy steps of thousands of horses trampling the earth, while a scout far in the distance watched the quivering of dry yellow grass, a sense of indescribable awe echoing deep in the heart.
Their shouts across the space momentarily broke the eerie atmosphere, echoing dully between the empty floors.
Picking up the iron rod he had set his sights on, Bai E focused his gaze and channeled Spiritual Energy; the rod bent in an instant, with a piece of it drooping softly at the head.
"Hmm~" Bai E nodded with satisfaction.
Not bad, although he didn’t use the Spiritual Power Enchantment often, it never let him down in crucial moments.
"Buzz!" Finally stepping out from the blood pool completely, the blood-colored figure swung its first sword, full of heft, at Bai E.
The Bloodletting Vampire, now emerged completely from the blood pool, was as terrifying as a true Demon God, even more real, and more oppressive.
But perhaps because they had finally arrived in the material world, their size was no longer as depicted in the initial hazy visuals when they first rose from the blood pool.
Now it seemed… to be about the height of two stories.
Accordingly, their Vampiric Demonic Swords shrank proportionally.
Yet, when the strike landed on the iron rod, it still felt like a needle trying to block a machete.
"Clang!" The sound of metal striking metal rang through the arena.
A surge of power traveled up the rod to Bai E’s palm, causing a slight numbness.
Perhaps Bai E could have instantly taken down one of them with an arrow, but that was the limit of his strength at the moment.
In the current stage, his offense was definitely greater than his defense; if he were hit by his own full-strength arrow, he wouldn’t be able to withstand it.
The Bloodletting Vampires, now fully emerged from the blood pool, had no regard for a human’s thoughts; their mission in coming to this realm was to spread blood and war.
Several demonic swords descended simultaneously, all striking at the tiny object blocking their path.
