Chapter 547-545: A Legendary Scheme (Bonus Chapter 1)

"Ouch!"

Under the blood moon, the light shone brightly, and a majestic mountain appeared out of nowhere, with steep peaks and towering cliffs.

Yet, on such a mountain peak, you can see a person climbing it with ease.

He was physically imposing, like an iron tower, yet agile, traversing cliffs as if walking on flat ground.

As he climbed, his body shape changed dramatically.

His hands and feet turned into sharp claws, silvery-white fur sprouted from his skin pores and grew rapidly, his head deformed into a wolf's head, and his body swelled up quickly.

In the blink of an eye, he had transformed from a human into a Howling Moon Silver Wolf, with its head and tail joined together, a body length of over fifteen meters, a shoulder height of five meters, and a body covered in silvery-white fur.

He nimbly stepped onto the mountaintop, his feet resting on the cliff face that resembled an eagle's beak, and howled at the moon.

"Woo-hoo, woo-hoo, woo-hoo!"

The continuous howls of wolves echoed, and the dark aura between heaven and earth surged outwards like boiling water, turning into dark clouds that shrouded the sky and blocked out the sun.

Inside the crimson city, on the battlefield, all the human soldiers were filled with uncontrollable terror.

That was the oppressive aura brought about by the difference in life levels; even just the spread of that aura was enough to make these mortals tremble.

In fact, even natural disasters can sometimes lead to situations where the weak overcome the strong.

For example, heavy siege, infiltration and assassination, poisoning, and various magical traps...

In the end, it proved the saying true: as long as you don't give up, there are always more solutions than problems.

However, once you reach the legendary level, it becomes infinitely more difficult to defeat a stronger opponent.

Because legendary powerhouses have completed the transformation of their souls and the dual evolution of their bodies and spirits, they are non-human beings, truly advanced life forms.

Even just facing it, ordinary people will feel fear.

If one harbors murderous intent or evil thoughts, these will be amplified infinitely, to the point that one's whole body trembles and one's hands and feet become unsteady.

If they don't even dare to face it, let alone anything else.

Fortunately, Luo Yi reacted faster, instantly increasing the frequency of the invisible fluctuations, and boundless courage grew in the hearts of the soldiers, preventing them from being destroyed by fear.

However, the appearance of His Majesty Stanislav Sak, the progenitor of the Dark Werewolves, greatly boosted the fighting spirit of the Dark Race, causing them to become even more frenzied.

To be precise, ordinary werewolves can only transform into a half-human, half-wolf form; even legendary werewolves cannot break through racial limitations.

However, His Majesty Stanislav Sak actually transformed into a wolf beast, and this was somewhat related to his past experiences.

In fact, he was originally limited by his bloodline and unable to break through to become the legendary progenitor werewolf.

Finally, he prayed to Fenrir, the legendary werewolf who slew the gods, offering the lives of his werewolf clan as a sacrifice, and received Fenrir's blessing, thus taking the final step.

Of course, the price he paid was that he became a traitor to the werewolves, betraying the moon goddess he once worshipped.

To save his life, he turned to the Church and converted to the Lord of Light. However, to suppress the consequences of the blessing, he overcame his primal desires by drinking blood.

After being exposed, he continued to flee, pursued by the Papacy and werewolves.

Ultimately, it was the Grand Duke of Toledo who protected him.

It could be said that, compared to the aged vampire Grand Duke Bruch, he was the one truly on the side of the vampires.
If the Blood Moon Forest demiplane is taken over, the Grand Duke of Toledo can shamelessly go to the New World, where other members of the Toledo clan will accept him.

But this dark werewolf of his was truly trapped with nowhere to go.

Therefore, he immediately unleashed his ultimate move, transforming into Fenrir the Great Wolf and howling at the moon in battle.

He lightly and gracefully jumped off the cliff, as if leaping from illusion into reality. His massive body plummeted to the ground like a meteorite crashing into the earth, distorting the surrounding space.

Below, countless tanks raised their cannons, and the magic runes lit up rapidly;
Then countless heavy field guns were aimed at the target, constantly making minor adjustments to their muzzles.

Boom boom boom!

The roar of artillery shells echoed through the heavens and earth. Tracer shells, holy water shells, and armor-piercing shells rained down from all directions, as if they were trying to shatter the meteorite.

However, as the shells approached, the distorted space crushed them, causing a secondary explosion in mid-air, with the shockwave spreading in all directions.
The rising mushroom cloud forced the four-tiered natural disasters that were fighting to flee far away, leaving them in a very sorry state.

However, they were ultimately lucky, having the ability to escape.

The most unfortunate were the Dark Race and the Imperial Guard soldiers on the ground. The shrapnel from the explosion rained down, piercing through the bodies of countless Dark Race members with a whooshing sound.

The Imperial Guard reacted even faster. Upon receiving Deep Blue's order, they quickly shrank into small groups and hid under or close to the tanks.

The rising diamond-shaped magic shield has been activated to its maximum, providing a certain degree of defense.

Each impact of the destruction caused ripples in the magic shield, and the tank's energy reserves decreased at a visible rate.

Some tanks that were further away were able to survive.

However, some of them, once their magic energy is depleted, can only defend themselves with steel armor and then quickly replace their magic pearls with energy-storing ones.

Most of the crew members were unharmed, but the assault troops and machine gunners hiding around were in dire straits.

The Royal Guard of Flower Territory suffered its greatest loss of the battle so far, all for the sake of stopping a single volley from the legendary werewolf.

Within that mushroom cloud, Stanislav Sak stepped out in his giant wolf form, surrounded by a colossal aura of darkness that distorted space and became the most solid shield.

This round of shelling did not cause him any damage.

Of course, from the perspective of buying time, it was enough. Then, two bats flapped their wings and flew up. They didn't look very big, nor did they exude any overwhelming aura. They simply went up to meet them and transformed into a man and a woman out of thin air.

Their eyes were bloodshot, their skin was deathly pale, the men were handsome, the women were alluring, and they were all elegant in their manners, showing no sign of panic.

Who else could it be but Grand Duke Cullen and his wife Lucy?!

As the Fenrir wolves pressed down like a mountain, a blood-red domain rippled around them.

Invisible sound waves spread, shattering everything around them, and rapidly expanded outwards, coming into contact with, intertwining with, and colliding with the dense dark aura...

Then, they pounced on it again!
Thus, in the distorted spacetime, what one could see was the Karen couple sometimes in human form, sometimes transformed into bats, battling a Fenrir giant wolf.

The legendary battles were beyond the comprehension of ordinary people.

Only the aftershocks of each collision spread outwards, creating a ring of spatial fragmentation in the center of the battlefield.

The number of invisible and visible spatial rifts is increasing, becoming dense and numerous, making it difficult for even a fourth-order calamity to escape.

However, it was ultimately a two-on-one situation, and the combination of ultrasound and infrasound had the power to shatter everything.
Even though the Fenrir form of the progenitor werewolf possessed a unique ability to devour, and even had a strong physique and maxed-out defense, it still suffered quite a bit of losses.

This enraged His Majesty Stanislav Sak, who roared and even threatened, "Old Bat, if you don't make a move soon, don't blame me for turning my back on you!"

"I'm coming!"

A somber voice rang out, and then the blood moon shimmered with light, as if it had been gathered into a single line that shone down.

The blood magic ray was executed with exquisite precision, precisely when Grand Duke Karen and his wife were aligned.

If the attack succeeds, it could very well result in a double kill!

Fortunately, Grand Duke Karen was extremely perceptive. At the last second, he kicked his own wife, sending them flying backwards and narrowly avoiding a collision.

However, their legendary domain was pierced from both ends, creating a huge hole.

Even with their blood demonic power surging, it was difficult to make up for it.

Looking further up, the sinister face of the Grand Duke of Toledo floated in mid-air.
His wings spread out behind him, against the backdrop of the blood moon, as if endless blood light was converging and transforming into the sharpest blood light rays, seemingly capable of piercing through all defenses.

However, seeing him take action, the Karen couple breathed a sigh of relief.

For them, the greatest danger in entering this Blood Moon Forest demiplane was actually just one thing: how many legendary helpers could Grand Duke Toledo summon?
Even if the Imperial Guard is defeated, they can simply withdraw at a cost.

But if the number of legendary powerhouses on the enemy is too large, even exceeding their capacity, then things could get really messy.

However, in their view, there seemed to be no other legends besides this dark werewolf?

This put their minds at ease!

In the ensuing battle, Grand Duke Toledo did not choose to rush down and fight, but instead hovered in mid-air, gathering his blood magic power to transform into beams of blood that crashed down.

Beside them stood Fenrir, the progenitor of werewolves, in his giant wolf form, watching them menacingly.

The Karen couple had no choice but to switch from offense to defense and deal with the situation cautiously.

Despite the two's attempts to separate them, they remained stubbornly entwined, resisting and counterattacking with their dual crimson domains.

Although it looks like there are many crises, we can still persevere.

Their thinking was simple: if they could just stall for time until Loy commanded the Royal Guard to completely wipe out the Dark Race and the vampires, they would naturally be free to help.

That will be the time for these two dark legends to flee.

Grand Duke Cullen felt something was amiss; things seemed to be going too smoothly.

At one point, he looked up again at the Grand Duke of Toledo in the sky, and his expression changed drastically.

"You are not Grand Duke Toridor!"

"who are you?"

As he said this, his eyes flashed with blood-red light, his pupils narrowed to a single point, and he suddenly looked up.

Then, the face in my field of vision rapidly aged, its wrinkles so deep they could trap a mosquito.
His eyes went from sinister to cloudy, until a triumphant smile appeared on his lips.

Who else could it be but the Grand Duke of Bruch?!

Grand Duke Karen was startled, then suddenly looked down at Loy and said, "Be careful!"

Meanwhile, inside the command center, Luo Yi was focused intently on directing the battle, seemingly so engrossed in it that she was oblivious to the outside world.

But at that moment, a beam of blood-red light suddenly rose up, turning into a straight line that pierced through everything in its path, heading straight for Luo Yi's back.

That speed was unbelievably fast, like light and lightning!
That blood-red light carried a resolute determination to kill!
The one who made the move was none other than the real Grand Duke of Toledo.

He carefully concealed his murderous intent, and even his observation of the temporary command post was conducted quietly through various means.

Only his tightly pursed lips, with a slight upturn, seemed to indicate his determination to succeed.

But at that moment, he suddenly realized that Luo Yi had turned around and was facing him directly, a mocking smile playing on her lips.

A slender sword appeared before him, its blade trembling and humming as it clashed with the incoming flash of blood.

Ding!
PS: I was drunk yesterday and went to bed early. This morning I took my baby to get his vaccinations, and after coming back, I rushed to write this update.

This is the first update; there will definitely be three updates today!
