This Text Adventure Game is definitely poisonous-Chapter 1184 - 534 Vampire Hunter_2

First-generation vampire, this identity alone was enough to make all the vampires in the city shudder in fear.

And now that Jack had died at his hands, all he needed was to obtain the "Blood Rhythm" and he could perfectly transform into Jack’s appearance—this would definitely make frightening others much easier.

"You have arrived in the forest on the southern outskirts of the city..."

"You faintly hear the buzzing sound of a chainsaw coming from deep within the forest."

"Wearing the mask of a fierce ghost, you head towards the source of the sound..."

"A few minutes later, you pause in front of a camping tent deep in the forest. Here, in the shadows cast by the tent and the large trees, a man with thick hair is attentively sawing wood with a chainsaw."

"Sense your approach, the man spares a glance upwards, notices the aura of the Blood Clan on you, frowns slightly but doesn’t pay much attention, and continues his work, casually asking, ’Who are you looking for?’"

"Looking for you," you say.

"What for?"

"To kill you."

"Oh?" The man then turns off the chainsaw and looks up at you seriously, a cold laugh escaping him, "You’ve got guts! A high-generation vampire actually daring to provoke a lower-generation Blood Clan!"

"Which clan are you from? Who is your elder? Didn’t your family teach you the most basic principles of conduct for vampires?"

"Remember, the person who kills you is called ’Mad Jack’!" In response to his lecturing, you merely reply nonchalantly, drawing the Blood Axe from behind you.

"Hehe, playacting!" Realizing you’re serious, the man sets down his chainsaw, looks around to make sure no one is nearby, and with a cold laugh, starts limbering up, twisting his neck from side to side.

"Seriously, I don’t want trouble, but since you’re so uncouth, I guess I’ll have to take the place of your elders and teach you a lesson!" As he speaks, he plants his hands on the ground and rapidly transforms. His body sprouts thick fur, and in the blink of an eye, he’s changed into the form of a gigantic bear-man. Kicking back with his hind legs, he charges at you like lightning.

You activate "Godspeed", and in the slowed perspective, you easily dodge the attack, move to the side, raise your axe, and strike down, simultaneously unleashing tremendous power.

The effect of "Godspeed" automatically ceases, and your forceful axe blow only leaves a white mark on the opponent’s fur.

The bear’s counterattack is swift. Its huge bear paw swipes at you with a crushing force, and you have no room to evade.

"Puff!" The moment the bear’s paw hits you squarely, "Mistify" activates automatically, and you turn into a wisp of smoke, vanishing from the spot, reappearing under the tent not far away, temporarily putting distance between you and the giant bear.

The giant bear bursts into laughter, speaking human tongues, "That’s all the strength you have, and yet you dare to play at being an assassin?"

Facing the bear’s mockery, you remain silent, swing your axe, and cut down the tent’s support poles.

Half the tent immediately collapses as rays of sunlight shine through the gaps in the trees.

The bear frowns and quickly reverts to human form, darting into the shadows on the other side, then looks back to see you still standing in the sunlight, and can’t help but sneer, "Looking for death!"

The man’s laughter soon freezes, as the expected scene of you being consumed by flames doesn’t occur. Exposed directly to sunlight, you remain completely unharmed.

"How is that possible? Who are you?" the man asks incredulously, almost thinking he was seeing things.

The effects of sunlight on vampires couldn’t be shielded by a mere layer of clothing, and yet here you were, exposed to sunlight without a single injury, nearly shattering the man’s worldview.

"I’ve said it before: my name is ’Mad Jack’!" Just as you speak, you’re already swinging your axe towards another tent.

Anticipating your intentions, fear finally flashes in the man’s eyes.

You have caused your enemy a shock, gaining a layer of "Madness". All your abilities increase, and your sanity decreases slightly.

Under fear, not only did the man not try to stop your actions, he didn’t even think twice before turning around to flee...

Mu You watched with delight; he wanted you to run, for only in the state of pursuit could the Blood Axe’s abilities truly be unleashed.

You chased after him closely, waiting for Godspeed to cool down before immediately reactivating it.

Through the slowed perspective, you easily caught up to the man running along the shadowy edge of the forest and cleaved down with your axe.

The man’s back hastily transformed into bear-like fur, attempting to withstand your attack. The rust-covered axe blade, like a hot knife through snow, effortlessly sliced through the fur and, amid a gush of blood, a horrific wound was carved into the man’s back.

With a scream, the man was hurled away by the great force, tumbling to the ground but too rushed to check his wounds, hurriedly getting up to continue fleeing.

The man’s fear of you deepened, and you gained a second layer of "Madness"...

...

Following that, Mu You began his pursuit of this man. After their initial encounter, which had left the man terrified, he did nothing but flee, not daring to resist any longer.

Regrettably, Mu You’s attack power was on the low side and he currently lacked any high-damage Blood Rhythms, while the man had thick blood. It took more than ten minutes of relentless chasing and hacking to finally accomplish the kill.

You drained the dying man...

Your bloodline was somewhat purified, but regrettably, it was not enough for a generational advancement; your bloodline remained at the 7th generation.

A vampire just one generation away needing to advance through draining or Heart Web required absorbing blood 3-10 times.

"Talent Absorption" took effect, and from the other’s bloodline, you absorbed the rare talent "Shapeshifting".

The man’s Blood Rhythms were not plentiful, and after retracing them a dozen times, Shapeshifting was successfully and randomly acquired.

Mu You turned his attention to check his humanity points, which were still at 6; it seemed this person was not a true human.

Having successfully completed his first hunt, Mu You did a simple cleanup at the scene, leaving behind a line of blood writing at the place of the man’s death: "Vampire Hunter, Mad Jack!"

After these tasks, he quietly left the woodland, and midway, he took off his mask and directly shapeshifted into Jack’s appearance.

In the following time, Mu You began to hunt down those lone vampires on the list one after another.

With "Shapeshifting" in hand, it indeed became much more convenient. Carrying the axe and wearing Jack’s face that resembled that of a madman, most people would first be startled by the sight, and then upon feeling the presence of a 1st generation vampire emanating from him, no vampire could withstand it; they almost instinctively began to flee.

Once in pursuit mode, things became much simpler. Mu You had no danger to himself; all he needed to do was chase and hack away, and by the time the victims realized his attack power did not meet the standards of a 1st generation, it was often too late.

Of course, this method could only be used against vampires of the 6th generation and above. Those of the 5th generation and below had too high a life force, making this tactic risky; Mu You hadn’t dared to confront them until he advanced.

By the end of the day, Mu You had hunted down a total of seven individuals from the list. Fortuitously, none of these seven were true humans, so he successfully secured seven rare Blood Rhythms.

Beyond that, he also casually hunted a few common members of the Blood Clan—not for their ordinary Blood Rhythms but to create a diversion. Otherwise, if he only specifically hunted those with rare Blood Rhythms, it would easily be deduced what he was doing, and his identity might be exposed.

At the site of each death, he left behind that identifying line of blood writing to add to the atmosphere of terror.

He wanted the image of the "Vampire Hunter" to quickly take root in people’s minds; the more others feared him, the easier it would be for him to hunt them down.

Although the city’s Blood Clan population wasn’t large, they formed a circle with one another, and with the convenient "Heart Web," news traveled quickly between the clans.

So, as night fell, the ten-plus victims from the daytime had already been discovered, and the names "Mad Jack" and "Vampire Hunter" had spread throughout all the major clans.

Especially that night, many from the Death Whisperer Clan found Katerina’s "last words" on the Heart Web: she too had died at the hands of Mad Jack, who was revealed to be a 1st generation vampire, plunging the whole City of Enoch into a strange panic.
