The two girls were wearing silky black dresses.
It seemed like one of them was wearing long black stockings, however, Angele noticed that it was actually a pair of long leather boots after observing her carefully. The boots that covered her legs looked like stockings for some reason.
The other girl was only wearing one stocking under the purple-black skirt and her outfit was eye-catching with the unbalanced matching.
The two girls were wearing long black ponytails, one had the ponytail on the right, and the other had the ponytail on the left.
The man had silver hair and was quite tall. He was wearing black leather pants and his eyes were surrounded by a red glow. He was staring at Angele like staring at his prey.
"Sland!" one of the girls shouted, sounding anxious. "Sland! Sland! Sland!"
She kept repeating the same word as she looked at Angele's neck. Angele could see her saliva dripping down her mouth.
*WOO*
The three black shadows disappeared at the same time, charging to Angele who was still standing on the lava.
'They're… vampires…?" Angele was surprised and excited. He always wanted to do research on a vampire. Raising his right hand, he waved the long blade in the air several times.
*CHI*
A red string was left in the air by the tip of the blood and the string released some intense light. The red light turned white within a second and brightened up the whole area.
"Ah!" Two of the vampires groaned and flew away. They exploded and turned into countless tiny black bats that hung on the ceiling, blocking their eyes with their wings.
The last vampire roared and continued to grab Angele's neck. His red hands and sharp nails looked like they were from a beast. Smoke was rising from his hands under the white light.
"Naive!" Angele shouted.
*PA*
He grabbed the red hands and pulled them to the right.
*BAM*
The vampire was thrown to the wall on the right. He rolled several times on the ground, but Angele was still holding one of his hands tightly using the left hand.
"Ah!" The middle-aged vampire groaned like a beast, he tried to move his hand out of Angele's left hand, but he failed. The vampire kneeled and green smoke started rising from his body.
"So, light is your weakness." Angele's brow furrowed as he looked at the blade mark that was releasing intense white light in the air.
"Extinguish!"
*CHI*
The blade mark quickly disappeared into the darkness.
He released the vampire's hand.
*CHI*
He then grabbed the vampire's neck and lifted the vampire up.
*Clank Clank*
The vampire started attacking Angele like crazy after Angele released his hand, however, it sounded like he was hitting a metal block.
Angele remained calm as the vampire struggled. His stared at the vampire in the eyes with a pair of glowing red eyes.
He chanted some incantation in a deep tone; the middle-aged vampire slowly calmed down and he was no longer struggling.
Angele's brow furrowed as he finished the incantation. 'I have to use a level 2 spell to calm this creature down. Although the vampire has the same power level as a rank 1 wizard, his resistance is quite high.'
Suddenly, two black daggers attacked the back of Angele's head when he was about to release the vampire's neck. The vampire that just calmed down raised his hands again and tried to gouge Angele's eyes.
*WOO*
A thin red barrier appeared in front of Angele's body immediately.
*BAM BAM BAM*
The vampires who just attacked him were blown away by the barrier and hit the wall hard.
White dust was blown into the air and Angele could barely see anything.
"Damn!" Angele's expression changed, he quickly walked to the vampire and crouched, turning the vampire around.
The vampire girl's eyes were wide open and there was black blood spurting out of her eyes, nose, and ears. The girl tried to say something but she quickly stopped moving. Her dark red eyes turned gray and they looked soulless.
Angele stood up and checked the two other vampires—their eyes all turned gray.
'If the data is correct, gray eyes mean that the vampires have already died… I made a mistake.' Angele stood up and sighed. 'I can only use them for dissection now…'
He quickly took out a tube that was full of black powder and sprinkled the powder over the vampires' foreheads.
'Well, this powder made by the academic tower is helpful, it can preserve the vampires' dead bodies, or they might decompose under strong light." He carefully returned the tube into his pouch.
'The vampire is a rare ancient race that I've only heard about in tales… I'm so lucky.'
Angele was so excited about what he found that he started smiling.
He pointed at the three dead vampires and pointed at the coffins.
*WOO*
The dead vampires were lifted up and they flew into the coffins right away. The lids of the coffins closed tightly by themselves.
'It seems like their bodies can be easily preserved in the coffins.' Angele looked at the coffins; although he was excited, he knew that he could not dissect those vampires at the moment.
'I need to finish my job first.'
He wanted to make the vampires into specimens so he could study the body structure of this ancient race. The result might help him refine his true form.
Vampires could become wizards as well, they were part of the ancient wizard society, and some of them were among the strongest wizards during certain eras. They played an important role in the history. Most importantly, vampires could increase their power level by consuming other creatures' blood. Angele was doing something similar, he just needed the bloodline essence of other creatures. He would be able to learn more if he captured the vampires alive.
That was the only mistake Angele made.
Angele calmed down and stopped staring at the coffins. 'I should probably study the coffins after I get back.'
He chanted the incantation in a low voice and a translucent force field appeared around his body.
Three coffins were moved to the left by the forcefield and the center of the hall was emptied.
Angele then took out the leather pouch that was full of small world stones. He unsealed the leather pouch and took a red egg-shaped world stone, throwing it forward.
*CHI*
It sounded like a piece of metal being twisted. The red stone expanded and turned into a large red stone that was about half a meter wide and two meters tall within seconds, dropping on the floor.
Red electric pulses surrounded by the stone, turning into a strong natural force field.
"Force Field Destruction!" Angele pointed at the world stone, the translucent force field surrounded by the red electric pulses quickly.
*PA*
The two force fields canceled out.
'I couldn't do anything to the force field of the world stone when I was at the west coast. The situation has changed…' Angele sighed with mixed emotions.
He took out another small world stone and repeated the process.
The world stones were piled up in the center of the hall—there were about 30 of them. The colorful world stones all increased in size.
Angele activated another forcefield and used his blade to reshape the world stones. He turned them into bricks and started building the altar according to a blueprint he collected.
He purchased the blueprint from Dark Wizard Tower. Angele was not trying to hide that he was having trouble with the frost damage and Dark Wizard Tower decided to sell him the blueprint for a discounted price.
He failed to acquire the location of the last eye-gouging dragon from Dark Wizard Tower as the organiztaion had no way to trace it down. Also, Angele's rank in the organization was probably too low to request for valuable intel like that.
Angele finally finished building the pyramid-shaped altar after spending about half a day on it.
The altar was built with colorful world stones and its appearance was quite funny.
*CHI CHI*
Angele shaped a black world stone into a sword and used the sword to fix the edges of a white world stone.
Fire sparked in the air every time the two world stones contacted.
After several minutes, he bit the tip of his right index finger and dropped his blood on the tip of the stone sword.
Only one drop of the fresh blood was left on the tip of the sword, however, the blood started expanding on the blade like it was poisoned. Several seconds later, the black sword turned into a dark-red sword.
Angele spent some time refining the edge of the blade.
*DING*
Translucent waves suddenly appeared around the stone sword.
'The world stone sword… It's too fragile… I can turn it into a weapon if the material is hard to break.' Angele stood up. He was satisfied with the result and he stepped on the altar with the sword in hand.
Angele raised his red stone sword on the altar. He did not chant any incantation, he just stabbed down using the sword.
*CHI*
The red sword was stabbed into the platform easily after the noise.
A ball of dark-red vortex slowly appeared above the sword and surrounded Angele's body.
The color of the altar started changing slowly. It looked like someone was pouring paint onto the altar—it turned red within seconds.
*BOOM*
The red stone sword was blown away by a ray of golden light. The golden ray shot to the top of the hall and its color lightened after reaching the ceiling.
Angele covered his eyes and took two steps back; he could feel that something was burning in front of him. A strange smell permeated the air, it almost smelt like someone was burning leather in the hall.
'I followed the rules when building the altar. The world stone sword was used for the coordinates and with the will of my mind, I should be able to open the coordinates given to me by Prince Evil Dragon…' Angele looked at the golden ray through the gaps between his fingers and he could feel that his mentality was going into the ray. He recalled the coordinates that contained more than 112 characters as he kept transferring more and more mentality into the ray.
