51: Extraordinary Sequence (Seeking 10,000 daily votes for monthly tickets)
This mission was not a multiple-choice question for Locke Galahad; it was a mandatory one.
To complete the main mission, he had to kill Victor, the biggest opposition.
Knowing that Kraven was on his way with Serena, Locke Galahad immediately began making preparations.
Although he didn't think Kraven was necessarily his match, he never underestimated his enemies.
With a wave of his hand, the bulletproof suit, which had quite a few side effects, appeared in his hands.
Without the slightest hesitation, he immediately put on the suit that exuded a mysterious aura.
"Even when a lion hunts a rabbit, it uses its full strength. I cannot underestimate Kraven; he might even have trump cards like mine."
He then checked the revolver's cylinder again, confirming that all the bullets were loaded.
Finally, he took out the blood of Lucien that he had already obtained.
He could have injected it long ago, but the reason he waited so long was mainly because he was worried about being discovered by Victor and the others, which would alert the enemy.
Now that they had reached the point of tearing off their masks, he no longer needed to hide anything: "It is time."
Having said that, he aimed one end of the syringe at his heart, plunged it in fiercely, and pushed the plunger all the way to the end.
He pushed the tube of blood, which glowed with a faint fluorescent light within the red, into his heart.
As Lucien's werewolf blood entered his body, three bloodlines that were impossible to exist simultaneously began to gradually intertwine and fuse.
As time passed, Locke Galahad could clearly feel his strength gradually rising, his heartbeat becoming increasingly powerful, and a certain silent transformation occurring within his body.
After about 10 minutes, the entire fusion process gradually came to an end. Only when the two constitutions, Vampire and werewolf, flickered and disappeared from the panel, finally merging into one, did it signify that the three different bloodlines had now completely fused together within Locke Galahad's body.
He closed his eyes and clenched his fists, feeling this suddenly increased power that far surpassed what he had before.
"Is this the Hybrid? It is truly powerful. No wonder that guy Victor is so wary of it."
"However, it seems to have another name."
Locke Galahad opened his eyes, a cold light flashing in them. Having been observing the panel all along, he discovered that a new column had suddenly appeared on the panel after the fusion was complete.
On it was clearly written: 【 Extraordinary Path 】: Sequence 9 Night Demon.
As for the earlier 【 Vampire 】 and 【 werewolf 】, they had disappeared with the appearance of the words "Night Demon."
Locke Galahad had watched many movies, read many novels, and knew many mythological stories, so he immediately understood the reason: "Looking at it this way, perhaps Night Demon is the most accurate name for the Hybrid."
As for Sequence 9, having played many games, he guessed that this might represent the ability level he was at among the Extraordinary Creatures in this American Horror Story world.
Since there were levels, it meant that he could continue to upgrade.
Thinking of this, a strong radiance bloomed in Locke Galahad's eyes: "An upgrade game? Hmph, very good, I am very interested."
As long as he could upgrade, he was confident that he could climb higher.
He wasn't talking about reaching the very top, as that was too far away, but Locke Galahad felt that his current goal was at least to upgrade until he possessed the ability to defeat the mastermind who killed his predecessor. Only in this way could he live securely in this world full of mystery and danger.
The reason he concluded that he could upgrade was not his own imagination, but that the secret codex he had previously obtained had already quietly revealed this information: that for an Extraordinary Creature, personal strength was not immutable, but could be improved through various means.
Although he didn't yet know what the conditions for upgrading the 【 Night Demon 】 sequence were, with the system, he would eventually have that day.
Furthermore, Locke Galahad also discovered that after becoming a Sequence 9 【 Night Demon 】, in addition to gaining the original werewolf's powerful physique and the Vampire's agile reactions, he had unexpectedly gained many more Extraordinary Abilities.
The simplest Extraordinary Ability was Night Vision; in addition, it gave him enhanced detection and combat power boosting skills: Echo Location and Night Enhancement.
Echo Location: You can locate creatures within a radius of several hundred meters using ultrasonic waves.
Night Enhancement: As a Night Demon, whenever night falls and the moon rises, your various stats will be significantly increased.
"Echo Location, Night Enhancement... these are two pretty good skills."
These unexpectedly acquired Extraordinary Abilities naturally brought a surge of surprise to Locke Galahad, especially Night Enhancement, which was definitely one of the most powerful skills he had obtained so far for increasing his combat power.
In the past, when watching movies, he only knew that the 【 Night Demon 】 constitution was much stronger than ordinary werewolves and Vampires; he didn't know that there would be Extraordinary Abilities to gain.
This was equivalent to him completing another mission invisibly, while simultaneously drawing a powerful reward.
He was naturally quite joyful in his heart.
After composing himself, he stood by the window and summoned a dense swarm of bats: "In the upcoming battle, I may have to rely on you all."
"Squeak, leave it to us."
Under his command, the overwhelming swarm of bats flew to the ceiling, hung upside down, and lay in wait. If there were any unexpected situations later, he could have these bats attack, buying him time.
After doing all this, Locke Galahad leaned against the window, waiting for Kraven and Serena.
However, he didn't wait for Serena and the others; instead, he waited for the Great Bat that had gone out earlier to scout for information.
"Squeak..."
Seeing this, Locke Galahad reached out his hand and let the Great Bat land on his forearm.
"Run, run quickly." The Great Bat urged him with terror.
"You want me to run; did you see something that made you feel afraid?"
"There is something very terrifying in that secret chamber." The Great Bat answered his question, shivering slightly.
"Something very terrifying?" Locke Galahad frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and asked in a tone filled with confusion: "Are you referring to Victor?"
"Squeak, what I am talking about is not a Vampire, not a Vampire; it is a monster, it is fear."
"You mean that besides Victor, there are other mysterious things existing in the place I asked you to scout?"
"Yes, the aura emitted from that thing makes me feel afraid. Run, run quickly, you are not his..."
The Great Bat urged him anxiously, and it was only after Locke Galahad stuffed a drop of blood into its mouth that it calmed down, and the urging words stopped before they were finished.
Locke Galahad could even see the terror on its small face turn into ecstasy.
"My master, have you advanced? I felt the same mysterious aura from your blood as that thing."
"Oh... are you sure you didn't sense it wrong?"
