Chapter 173 Battle for the Dragon Territories (3)
The door burst open, falling on the ground away from the door frame. I tried to throw a blood swipe at him but the swipe broke apart when it hit his armor.
He must have silver armor to negate my Vi based attacks. These guys were the perfect counter to my abilities. I guessed I was just going to have to bring out the brawn. Go full fist.
I slammed my fist into his chest, sending him flying through the wall and through the next wall and a hundred feet past that. However, it shattered my fist. And it wasn't healing right away.
Your adventure continues at My Virtual Library Empire
I guess pure brawling was out. I took out one of them, but there were 49 more. And I only had one more fist. It looked like I was going to have to pull out the big guns. And destroy most of the Dragon Sect in the process.
I used a blood shield to blow a hole through the back wall of the room. I ran outside and asked the system a question.
'Can I transform into a dragon?'
[Yes. You will still be vulnerable to silver, but you'll be so large that the damage will be negligible. Also your scales will block most of the damage]
'That's exactly what I wanted to hear. Let's transform.'
[Initiating transformation]
I felt as my bones and muscles and tissues began to grow and stretch. Scales sprouted on my skin and I grew wings and antlers. I became massive. So massive that I destroyed some sections of buildings as I grew to my full size.
I turned around looked over the courtyard with my massive head. The vampires in suits of silver armor were like ants to me now. Ants I was going to burn.
I took in a big breath, and exhaled flame onto the remaining vampire soldiers. I heard them scream and then a lot of really gross noises as they cooked inside their suits of armor.
Then the armor began to melt and they turned into charred puddles on the ground. When the dust settled, all of the vampires were dead. I transformed back into my normal vampire self. Now it was time to clean up the mess.
And that is what I needed Lara for. I called Lara up and asked her to put in a work order somewhere for body removal and to call Blackhammer about doing repairs and complete remodeling of the Dragon Sect complex. We were going to tear it down and build our own complex on top of it.
I walked quickly to Elder Ravenkin's house and knocked on the door. He immediately answered it. He recognized me and said, "Hello, dead person. It's good to see you. Come in, immediately."
I walked inside and Aldous closed the door. "How are you alive? I saw them chop your head off with a silver axe. And why are you here?" He said.
"No, you saw them chop my head off with a fake silver axe that Master Bader gave them. I kept my head attached through Vi threads and just put it back on after I was carted away," I said. "I'm here because the Vampire Association just tried to kill me and the people I care about, again. I'm done playing games. Either I survive or they do, and it's going to be me."
"Ok. So why come here? If your beef is with them," he said. He was eating popcorn. He had a popped bag in his hand when he answered the door.
"Can I have some of that?" I said.
"No, this is my popcorn! You can make yourself a bag," he said.
"Ok. Well I came here to ask you where the armory is and the council chambers. I want to destroy their silver weapons before I take them down. That way I don't have to be afraid of getting shot in the back," I said.
"I'll show you where the armory and the council chambers are on a map. I have a blueprint somewhere from when we were building the place," he said.
Aldous got out a blueprint of the vampire academy and showed me the armory on the map. It was down a flight of stairs between two buildings. I committed it to memory, and went to leave.
"Where are you going? Don't I get a hug before you go? You might actually die this time," he said.
"I'm not much for hugging men, but sure," I said. I hugged Ravenkin goodbye and left.
I made my way to the armory by way of the stairs. It was a surprisingly long flight of stairs. When I got down there, I saw why. There were multiple levels of weapons in this place.
I wasn't going to be able to destroy them all. I would have to block the entrance somehow instead. There was a guy down there, behind a grated cage.
I summoned a blood knife and threw it at his head. The knife passed through the grate, by liquifying temporarily, and then resolidified and hit him right in the forehead.
He immediately went down. Sorry, dude. Wrong place, wrong time. Now it was time to suit up, get out, and then block the entrance.
