Chapter 466: Chapter 466: Cleaning the Front Door
“Are we just in time to feed this group of watchdogs?”
Han Dong and the others stopped twenty meters away.
A remarkably obese butler emerged, his massive fat belly almost touching the ground, his thighs equaled to eight layers of thick tire folds.
Every step he took left a footprint on the ground.
The butler seemed to be feeding these watchdogs, yet he carried no food in his hands.
The way he fed them was quite unsettling. Even Lucius and the others averted their gaze, only Han Dong watched with intrigue…
The obese butler fed the pale-skinned beings in front of him by vomiting his ingested food, spraying it all around.
It smelled faintly of “Blood Brew” from the decomposing meat.
The pale-skinned beings opened their mouths that occupied their entire bodies and began to eat voraciously.
Han Dong muttered, “We seem to have chosen an extreme sub-manor… With such sickening security and butler, it’s hard to imagine what the Baron – White Ghost will be like.”
Lucius presented a plan for invading the manor:
“Lunze, resurrect twenty ordinary skeleton soldiers to attack the manor from the front… After attracting the manor’s attention, we will quickly sneak in from the back door.”
“Yes…”
Just as Lunze was preparing his spell,
Han Dong suddenly spoke.
“Captain Lucius, this could be risky…
It’s not that I don’t trust the skeleton soldiers Lunze will summon, but that it’s a ‘targeting’ issue.
The manor is currently focused on us. If it’s just a bunch of skeleton soldiers causing trouble at the front door, it’s likely going to be hard to distract them fully.
How about this instead?
The three of us will help you by diverting their attention. When the time is right, you can sneak into the manor and confront the White Ghost Baron directly.”
Indeed, Han Dong made a valid point.
The diversion by a few skeleton soldiers might fail.
“You are still apprentice knights, faced with an evil being powered up by Blood Brew… Are you sure you can handle it?”
“Don’t worry, we usually don’t do anything we’re not certain of…
Moreover, we believe that with your strength and perfect coordination, you will be able to take down the Baron hidden inside in a short amount of time.
Once the Baron dies, the Blood Descendants who are outside niggling with us will inevitably fall into chaos.”
“Alright… It’s all up to you.”
Given the feasibility of the plan, Lucius immediately led his team towards the back gate.
“Guys, let’s get to work! Abe, you’ve been suppressing your beastly nature for a long time. Why don’t you take the lead… This will be a good chance for you to let off some steam.”
“Okay…”
Abe’s bestial nature expanded, making him 1.5 times larger than his normal state.
The swelling muscles showed prominent green veins.
The reason Han Dong chose to let his team act as bait was to allow Abe to vent. Abe had been walking on eggshells throughout the mission due to Lucius’s power. Suppressed for a long time, his beastly nature wasn’t good to hold back.
As Abe charged towards the front gate,
Han Dong signaled Dumps to stay put and just observe from where he was.
“We’ll step in if anything unexpected happens… Abe alone should be enough to handle these watchdogs.”
Dumps adjusted his glasses, seemingly preoccupied with something else.
“Nicholas, you overtly support Lucius in his quest to obtain the ‘Baron’s blood’, but I believe you have other intentions, don’t you?”
There were things Han Dong obviously couldn’t hide from Dumps, and he didn’t feel the need to play dumb.
“I’m just sincerely interested in the Scarlet Manor… I’m not demanding anything else. If we can solve this Baron issue, we might gain some deeper insights.
After all, aren’t we also looking for a ‘Breaking Seed’ target?”
“Haha, I knew it… You’re playing with fire, aren’t you?” Dumps revealed a smirk.
Han Dong politely returned the laugh, “I guess you must have a backup plan, Dumps. If things get out of control, we can all disperse and escape.”
“Haha…”
…
“Synchronization rate: 5%”
Abe, who had been rigorously trained for a whole year, could only control up to 5% of his beast bloodline. Any further and he would lose his autonomy and enter a rampage.
A frenzied white phantom quickly enveloped Abe’s entire body.
The “Shadow of the Berserk Beast” did not only immensely enhance his overall mobility, but also morphed into fangs and talons according to Abe’s will, expanding the attack range and changing attack methods at will to increase lethality.
In a moment, the Pale Ones he was fighting against were torn limb from limb…
Before they could even approach Abe, they were already slashed to pieces by his claws… They were completely outclassed.
This act of massacre immediately caught the attention of the manor.
Squeak…
The manor gates opened.
The fat butler who had previously fed them emerged, taking heavy steps.
Clink clank! The butler was still holding more than twenty iron chains in his hand.
These chains were connected to special pets raised by the Baron.
These pet creatures were much bigger and stronger than ordinary Pale Ones, seemingly modified from indigenous life forms in the mountains.
Their entire bodies were embedded with special armor, except for a terrifying mouth full of tongues, which was exposed outside the armor.
Ha ha ha!
Laughter rang out.
Several winged women flew out from the buildings of the manor.
They were all the Baron’s personal maids, laughing uproariously in the air because they smelled the high-quality blood in Abe.
“Go… Eat more.”
The butler released the chains in his hands.
All the pets and maids in the sky, who looked like vampire brides, attacked Abe together… A variety of bizarre, deep red ‘straw-shaped’ tentacles grew out from the blood descendants. These could bring a certain degree of mental pollution to Abe, affecting his actions.
“Dumps, let’s go.”
Han Dong snapped his fingers from the darkness.
An inmate living in the prison was unleashed.
A series of thick, pink octopus tentacles suddenly shot out from the woods, instantly ensnaring the flying white maids.
The maids were given no chance to struggle.
The secreted acid from the suction cups quickly disintegrated their skin and bones, and then the maids were crushed by the enormous force of the tentacles themselves.
“Nicole… don’t absorb the blood inside these creatures.”
“Hmm, I know… Finally, I am out! I was suffocating.”
All along the way, Nicole, who was inside Han Dong, had been urging him to let her out and play.
However, due to the presence of Captain Lucius, it was hard to explain Nicole’s identity… If Nicole was not let out at this moment, her intimacy level with Han Dong might drop.
It didn’t matter much to Togu and Chen Li, the prison was like their home, and they could stay there as long as needed.
“Dumps… You deal with the fat butler.”
“Okay.”
Upon saying this, Han Dong’s gaze locked onto the armored pets, and the arm taken from the High Priest gently rotated.
“Yellow Sand Secret Method.”
The firm soil immediately turned into yellow sand, restricting the movements of more than twenty special pets, allowing Abe to kill them one by one…
When the fat Butler realized something was wrong and wanted to return to the manor…
A drop of seawater fell on his round head…
By the time he looked up…
The lance was already there.
A spear from the deep sea pierced his head, cleanly skewering the fat butler’s body.
The vitality of the fat butler was proportional to his obesity, and any physical attack could not kill him… But the attack from Dumps was obviously different.
In less than half a second…
The Butler had already turned into a puddle of seawater, leaving only a residue on the ground, and the mysterious lance retreated back into the deep sea.
“Hmm… Another Messenger? No, not a Messenger… Something feels very dangerous.”
It seemed that Nicole was scared, she grabbed Han Dong’s shoulders with both hands, hiding behind him.
Through her shining big eyes, she sneaked a peek at Dumps, who used the mysterious spear… Her eyes were filled with fear, as if she was terrified of him.
