Sam felt like his soul was sucked out of his body as he felt a red smoke pull him inside. The situation is terrible. He understood that once his feet reached the mouth of the well.
He also sensed something unfamiliar was trying to make a connection with his brain and he immediately understood that the situation would not be solved in a few days, which was why he set a deadline for himself.
He was open to trickery in battle, but this was something he did not expect. Tens of Refineers and a cultivator who was even stronger than a Refiner all together tried to force him into this hole. Even his escape tactics did not work.
He could only face the problem directly. As for not being able to finish it at all? If he had thought that way before he had resolved all the problems he had solved today, he would not have solved a single one of them.
This is the mentality he has towards his problems. It may seem narcissistic, but he always thinks that any problem can be solved for him, whether a matter of time or need.
Sam felt another consciousness invade his body before he could even reach the bottom of the well.
The density of the red mist increased a lot.
Immediately Sam touched the liquid surface and it almost felt like he was smashing into concrete.
There was a metallic taste in his mouth and he could smell the blood all around him.
By the time he got his sight, he already knew what he was dropping, a pool of blood.
Finally, Sam could not move in the slightest, the red mist still enveloped him, but did not pull him anywhere. Sam floated on the surface and he was finally able to use his energy freely.
He stood up and used his water element energy to take a foothold on the blood surface and used his eye technique to look around. He was in a big pool of blood and he wasn't alone there. The corpse was floating on the surface of the blood nearby.
The body sat cross-legged and once looked easily showed that this was a vampire corpse.
Sam wanted to get close to that body, but the red mist once again moves and this alien entity's struggle to establish a connection with the brain begins and soon a powerful little link is made through the sound that is heard in its head.
"You really are a good specimen. Not only is your body so delicious and has such a fragrant smell, your soul is also quite unique, this is the first time I have taken so long to establish a connection with the brain. I wonder how much time it will take to spend you completely."
"Econsume? Do you think, I'll let you do that?" Sam's voice was cold and indifferent as if the consciousness that drilled into his brain wasn't even there.
"What else can you do? Do you even know who I am? Do you know what I'm gonna do to you? Since we have to spend a lot of time together before leaving this place, let me tell you."
At this moment, the corpse sitting cross-legged in front of him opened its eyes and began to speak.
"I was the King of Vampires hundreds of years ago. I'm one of the reasons vampires are imprisoned in this sick realm.
The corpse in front of you is my original body, the body of the Vampire is one of the most outstanding physiques of all species, but I was never satisfied with it, so I experimented. Not just me, the Ghoul King back then, the Wight King, everyone was experimenting wanting a different result.
That was why the three races and other undead beings related to them were kicked into this realm.
But we didn't stop. All the blood you see around is the result of that experimental failure.
I wanted to create a perfect body and create a new species altogether. Within that body, not only can I find a balance between human blood and Vampire blood, I also want to combine them perfectly combining the advantages of both worlds.
Then I would have regenerated and vitality along with the lifespan of the vampire body and the versatility and potential of man, but I never succeeded. In the last experiment, I created this well where my soul was preserved and lost my strength, but each time they sent a human body to find the container that was most suitable for me.
All this time I've survived because of the vessels but they've slowly broken into this blood, but now you're coming.
Your bloodline is pure and superior to any human I have ever met. Your body is perfectly balanced with all physical attributes and has resistance to almost all basic elements along with a strong affinity. If I manage to fuse with you, I can add Vampire meat characteristics such as regeneration, long life span, etc, and high physical endurance and also overcome the vampire defect which is the element of light and morning sun.
Hahahahahaha..”.
Sam only watched as the corpse laughed and waited for him to continue.
"Your soul is too strong and unstable. Normally, I would exhaust your consciousness and make your body mine, before merging, but if I did it with you, there was a chance that you would turn your body into a corpse by killing yourself, he said, so first of all I'll imprison your soul inside your body and let it merge completely.
Once the body is complete and strong enough, I will enjoy your soul and achieve invincibility."
Sam could already feel the blood seeping into his body, but that was all he could do, feel.
His body was out of his control and he could not even use his own spiritual awareness.
Right now, his sea of consciousness was a battlefield where the Vampire King's spiritual consciousness attacked his own.
But Sam's spiritual awareness was different. He was like a metal beam unlike most people which was a vapor that easily spread.
He held on tightly while waiting for the opening and soon he had already stopped feeling his body and even started to sink into it.
He gritted his teeth in frustration and helplessness and struggled like a mad dog with a leash, but he could not even connect with his own body.
At this moment, all he could see or feel was a foreign consciousness trying to take over him. Even his instincts screamed that foreign consciousness was a greater threat than the body.
Sam was sure that as long as his soul and body existed, regardless of his condition, at least he could live and find a way out, from this procedure his body would definitely exist even with several stages, but he had to confirm it. that his soul exists.
After thinking this, he let his body and tried to fight it with awareness.
After all, the process was long, so Sam calmed himself down and started his own war.
Meanwhile, back to the dying forest.
The team once again met in the bat cave and everyone started making preparations.
All the team members took out a few small metal rockets from their storage.
Sam has made preparations for the actual worst case scenario and that is if his friends are separated from him.
Although Philip made a good leader keep them out of trouble, there might be a scenario like now and they would have to make a big enough move to save Sam. Therefore, he arranged something very dangerous with them that should only be used in an emergency.
Right now, the forest of death was empty. Sam's friends aren't even the main target. There was no news from the Vampire King about Sam's death or any information on how to eradicate the vines, so until then they decided to hold off the other team members.
So, for now, the team is free to act without any problems and the vines that are still spreading are already causing enough problems for the three races, so no problem.
The team spread throughout the entire forest of death and began to activate this small rocket.
All they had to do was inject spiritual energy and activate a small formation within it. The rockets flew until the fuel ran out and exploded there.
But there was no blazing explosion nor was there any form of striking sight. It was at most like a firecracker that failed to leave behind a few small grains of different colors.
These are the pollen grains that Sam keeps separately and they are the next level of normal vines. Sam doesn't want to use it in his plans unless it's strictly necessary. And since even his life was at stake, this could be considered quite necessary.
