Kov's heart tightened. It was the crawling claw he had made with undead magic just now. The ordinary crawling claw made with a murderer's hands could only be used for spell-casting materials or laboratory assistants.

But this pair of crawling claws was made by Kov with 10 people. The vitality and souls of these people were all condensed into this pair of claws, so its power had long surpassed that of ordinary crawling claws and reached the level of top-level equipment.

And this black dragon actually destroyed the crawling claws with ease.

Moreover, this size was not comparable to ordinary black dragons at all, and the strength of true dragons generally depended on their size. The larger the size, the stronger the strength. This black dragon was already more than 40 meters long—maybe even longer!

Igor, the leader of the Jagged Mercenary Group, also put away his previous thoughts. Karen, who had just escaped with his life, stood next to Igor with lingering fear, holding a two-handed sword in his hand.

The feeling of being so close to death just now was too terrifying.

Unexpectedly, Kov, whom he usually disliked, would save him, but the head of the team, Igor, had not made a move...

Thinking of this, Karen leaned closer to Kov's position.

I saw these top-level humans in front of me looking at me as if facing a great enemy.

"Lord!"

"It's the great true dragon!"

"Kill!"

Vickers and the other dark creatures below felt a surge of energy and looked at the oppressive black dragon in front of them, filled with a sense of security.

Algerta spread her wings and flew to my side. She stared at me with wide eyes. How did this guy grow so fast? What did he eat?

This body size is outrageous.

I ignored Algerta, and my attention was entirely on the three humans on the opposite side.

The top-level swordsman seemed to be the best, but nothing to worry about.

The strength of the dark necromancer should be good. It was interesting that the ordinary creeping claws had been trained to this level by him.

As for the black-armored man with luxurious equipment all over his body, I was a little confused. The breath of life on this guy was very strange and complicated.

"This is not a black dragon at all!"

Igor licked his lips. This hideous and terrifying appearance, as well as the lightning breath and space magic skills just now, couldn't belong to a black dragon. It didn't look like a black dragon except for the color of its scales.

"Igor, what should we do?" Kov asked, a little irritably.

He no longer wanted to take any more risks.

"Kill it!" After Igor finished speaking, he took the lead, rushing up with the blood-red sword. He knew that at this moment, he had to act first to drive these two guys with their own ulterior motives.

Kov and Karen looked at each other. Kov continued to cast spells; black mist began to rise, and flaming skulls with green will-o'-the-wisps began to surround me in groups. Karen, meanwhile, aroused all the energy in his body. Khaki energy flew behind Igor as he followed closely.

With one paw, I pulled away Algerta's silver dragon head and rushed forward to face Igor's attack. Would I be afraid of head-on confrontation?

"The power of blood!"

Bang~

Igor's giant sword, steaming with bloody energy, instantly enlarged and collided with my sharp claws. Karen's giant sword followed closely behind.

But Karen's giant sword flew out at the moment of contact, and he himself was sent flying. The huge blood sword in Igor's hand was also broken. He looked down at the black armor on his body with an ugly expression. A piece of the chest was damaged, and the runes above dimmed slightly.

I looked at my sharp claws—there was only a little white mark on them. The power of the 175th Void Feast could not be shaken by these guys in front of me!

"Quack quack~"

"It hurts!"

A group of countless human heads burning with green flames surrounded me, speaking words of unknown meaning.

Unlike the head of a demilich, the refining conditions for these burning skulls involved directly using the heads of powerful mages. The mages had to experience extreme pain, and their souls were bound to the skulls.

This even preserved their ability to cast spells from their lives.

Of course, the strength of these burning heads was not weak.

I saw countless green rays shooting toward me from the eyes of the burning skulls.

"Fire Body!"

The green fire of undead surrounded me, but it had no effect at all, blocked entirely by the flame body.

Igor, next to me, took the opportunity to condense a blood spear with his blood-red battle energy and tried to stab at my neck.

My eyes, shrouded in flames, were slightly playful.

"Reincarnation!"

A gray light flashed, and the bodies of Igor and I disappeared from the spot.

"Well? What just happened?"

Kov, next to him, closed his eyes and began to chant spells to search. But after three seconds, he opened his eyes with an ugly expression.

The monstrous black dragon and Igor seemed to have completely disappeared, with no sign of Igor within tens of kilometers around...

---

At this time, in the gray space of reincarnation, I looked at the mercenary leader Igor in front of me.

Some kind of aura in this guy had been exposed.

"I'm curious about the purpose of a half-human, half-vampire hiding in the human mercenary group as the head of the mercenary group?"

My nose twitched. The black armor on the opponent's body just now not only served as a defense but also covered up his aura.

But after the armor was damaged, I identified this creature from my inheritance memory based on this aura.

I knew that in this world, there were creatures similar to the vampires seen in films and television works in my previous life, but the vampires in this world were much stronger than those in movies.

Because they could cast spells, a few powerful individuals were terrifying to many creatures.

Ordinary half-human, half-vampires were very weak, just a little stronger than ordinary humans. But the vampire in front of me seemed to combine all the advantages of humans and vampires.

"Your Excellency is not a black dragon, is it? We are the same mutants!"

Igor wasn't surprised at all when he was exposed.

Instead, he asked. In his opinion, they were both different species of the same race, and there was no reason for one to look down on the other.

Although Igor himself was powerful, he always had to hide his identity. He was different from both humans and vampires.

Neither would accept him, and true vampires regarded him as a disgrace to their race.

"Who the hell is like you!"

A fiery red light shot out from my chest, followed by a blue-gold beam of light from my mouth.

Igor tried to dodge, but several wind pillars suddenly appeared around him, trapping him in place.

The blue-gold breath tore Igor into pieces. A burst of black smoke rose, and Igor's figure disappeared from the spot.

But I didn't sense his death.

"Vampires can turn into vampire bats to avoid damage. A good move!"

The vast inheritance memory of a true dragon had encountered many vampires, so I was very familiar with these methods.

Did the other party really think I was just some dragon-like monster who didn't understand anything?

"Ji ji ji!"

As soon as I finished speaking, countless palm-sized bats with glowing red eyes screeched and flew out from the place where Igor had disappeared.

They gathered together to reform Igor's figure.

At this time, his complexion was even paler, his pupils had turned blood red, and his teeth were sharp and menacing.

A huge blood-red bat wing spread out behind him, making him more than three meters tall.

This appearance was much closer to those vampires from Saron's memory.

"Where is this place?"

Igor looked at me anxiously. He had originally only wanted to suck some blood from the true dragon to improve his strength, but he hadn't expected to encounter such a monster.

And this extra-dimensional space was bizarre. He tried using some space magic, but nothing happened.

He felt a strong sense of oppression in this place, which was why, as a vampire, he hadn't dodged the opponent's attack initially. Now, he had to find a way to overcome this oppressive feeling.

"Is it still useful to ask these questions now?" I said indifferently.

Igor looked at his opponent and knew that the black dragon-like monster in front of him was trying to kill him.

Then he could only work hard!

"Blood flames!"

The blood-red steam on Igor's body rose like a flame.

A huge bloody sword appeared in his hand.

"Come on, it's not that easy to kill me!"

I looked at him and knew that the atomic breath just now had actually caused damage to this guy, but the vitality of the vampire was indeed strong.

The bloody broadsword slashed towards me with blood flames lingering on it.

My figure disappeared in an instant, and Igor became extremely vigilant. He had just wanted to turn around, but it was too late, and a sharp pain came from his lower body.

Igor's bat wings flew away. He looked down at his lower body—his legs had completely disappeared, and he didn't even use his bat avatar this time.

Blood continued to flow from his lower body. If it wasn't for the strong vitality of being a vampire, this injury would have ended him long ago if he were human.

"You are obviously stronger than me. Why do you keep sneak attacking?" Igor said, feeling a little aggrieved.

This monster had sneaked up on Karen earlier outside, and now, even in this fight, it relied mainly on sneak attacks.

The most frustrating thing was that he could already feel that his opponent was clearly stronger than him and had an absolute upper hand. Did this still require a sneak attack?

"Since when did strength have anything to do with a sneak attack? Isn't the whole point of getting stronger to execute a better sneak attack?" I stared at Igor as if he'd grown a second head, my expression dripping with condescension, as though I were addressing a particularly slow-witted child.

Before he had the trump card of absolute immortality, I had always attached great importance to any enemy. Who knew if this guy would suddenly pull out a powerful artifact or something like that to explode and take me down with him?

Besides, this was called caution, not a sneak attack. And it was terrifying how uneducated some creatures could be.

"You…"

Igor looked at my chest and almost couldn't catch his breath. For the first time, he felt that a creature could be so shameless.

I considered the vampire who seemed to be in a hurry. To be honest, I was a little disappointed with the vampire in front of me.

I took back my previous thoughts—this guy was really ordinary.

"Your life-saving ability is good. If there are many guys outside who are stronger than you, they might not be able to kill you. Unfortunately, this is my home field!"

This guy's half-vampire physique and magical power made his survival abilities much stronger than ordinary creatures.

But after being restrained in the reincarnation space, no matter how powerful you are, you can't escape. You can slowly study new tricks on your own.

And I'd heard that vampires could live forever as long as their blood core existed. I wondered if that was true.

The flames all over my body rose again, and at the same time, the ground in the space of reincarnation began to vibrate.

The countless fire elements in the space instantly formed a sea of flames, and the hurricane continued to howl.

The wind fueled the fire, and the entire samsara space was covered by the flame storm for a while.

My control over various elements in the reincarnation space was more comfortable than in the material world.

I found that as the area of the reincarnation space increased, my control also grew stronger day by day.

Igor didn't sit still. He didn't waste magic blood to regenerate his legs.

Instead, the blood from his legs flowed out, immediately forming countless streams of blood that swam around him like pythons.

"Sea of blood!"

The blood faintly contended with the sea of fire.

I narrowed my eyes—this wasn't right. The blood flowing out of this guy's body was already several tons, which didn't match his body size.

And this was at most a pool of blood, far from being a sea of blood. Did this guy not know how big a sea actually was?

Forget it. Let's kill him first!

I teleported to Igor's side using Void Walk.

Boom!

The flame body that absorbed countless high temperatures burst directly beside Igor.

Igor's body turned into countless blood-red bats, but the high temperature of the surrounding sea of fire caused these bats to scream and melt.

---

After some time, peace was restored in the reincarnation space.

I looked at the storage magician ring on the ground, but then stretched my claws into the space next to me.

A red crystal the size of a human fist was caught in my claws.

Trying to hide his blood core in the reincarnation space—this half-vampire was a bit too naive!

"Wait, we can—" As soon as a ray of consciousness came out of the blood core, I directly crushed it. I had just collected the half-vampire's soul.

Immediately, a gray figure slowly solidified.

It looked just like Igor had earlier.

The Igor in front of me had a dull expression.

His appearance was also very different from before his death. His whole body was covered with gray skin and black clothes, and his hair, originally dark red, had turned pure black.

I closed my eyes and began to feel the state of my first use of the ability of the Son of Death.

After a few seconds, I opened my eyes.

The Son of Death was more powerful than I had imagined, and most of Igor's memories had been preserved.

I could also check them at any time.

It was a pity that Igor didn't seem to retain all his strength from when he was alive—only about 80%.

But the most powerful thing about vampires was their troublesome life-saving ability and immortality.

However, the Son of Death seemed to have many other abilities, which needed further experimentation.

Aren't there exactly two experimental subjects outside?

I could try the power of the Son of Death.

"You are the number one child of death. I will call you Number One from today on!"

"Yes!" A hoarse voice came from Number One's mouth in front of me.

With a thought, I left the space of reincarnation.

---

At this time, outside the reincarnation space, Argenta had brought the remaining dark creatures to continue fighting against the two top-level humans.

Kov and Karen dealt with the attack in front of them absent-mindedly.

The disappearance of Igor and the black dragon earlier had been too weird, giving them a very bad premonition.

Therefore, both had the intent of preserving their strength, planning to adapt to the situation.

If Igor was fine, it meant that the black dragon was average. Then everyone could remain a member of the iron-blooded mercenary group, and killing the black dragon together wouldn't be a problem.

If something had happened to Igor—what was the iron-blooded mercenary group in Kov's view?

You could only run as far as possible.

"Kov, why don't we quickly kill this silver dragon and leave here!" Karen suddenly suggested.

"No!"

Kov directly rejected Karen's idea.

Just kidding—the body of the black dragon was what he liked the most. If the silver dragon in front of him was female, he might consider it.

Karen felt a little disappointed, but Kov had saved his life before.

Although he didn't think of himself as a good person, it was better to respect the powerful savior.

Karen comforted himself this way.

A trace of disdain flashed in Kov's eyes. He didn't understand how this idiot had become a top-level fighter.

At that moment, the space distorted, and my huge figure appeared in place.
