Rise from the coffin and rebuild the vampire empire

Chapter 137 Traitor!

In his nearly fifty years of life, Tantalus had never experienced such a shocking moment.

A "Lizard Vampire"?
This was something Tantalus had never imagined, and today was truly an eye-opener.

Tantalus was no stranger to vampires. He had participated in many of the empire's operations to exterminate vampires and had seen many vampires, but this was definitely not one of them.

"hiss!"

Zandata urged his blood and energy, and the flesh on his hands squirmed, and the severed claws quickly grew and healed. The Blood Corruption Clan was indeed outstanding in physical abilities, which naturally included terrifying recovery abilities.

The blood surged up, and Zandata had entered a state of frenzy. There was a blood-red light flashing in her eyes, and the violent blood rushed straight to her brain. Her body continued to grow stronger, her muscles became knotted, and she lost her sanity. She had completely surrendered herself to instinct.

There was no way. Without entering the berserk state, she was obviously not qualified to challenge Tantalus. After all, Tantalus was not an unknown person.

"Roar!"

Zandata roared and charged forward, not flinching at all because of the setback he had just suffered. This lizardman priest was obviously not good at close combat, but under the influence of savagery and frenzy, he became extremely wild, which made Slaco behind him very anxious.

Facing the Zandata who was rushing towards him, Tantalus was not at all panicked. He walked lightly and dodged Zandata's attack sideways. The man and the beast passed each other, and Tantalus swung the sword in his hand fiercely, directly ripped Zandata's belly open.

Blood splattered as Tantalus' sword almost cut Zandata in half. But even this injury was not fatal to Zandata. She mobilized her blood and quickly recovered her body.

However, Tantalus obviously did not intend to give her time to recover. Although lizard vampires were rare, in Tantalus's heart, victory was obviously more important. He wanted to quickly defeat these lizardmen and turn the situation around.

Tantalus' eyes flashed with murderous intent, his body leaped, and he swung out with the sword in his hand, intending to behead the unresponsive Zandata with one sword.

However, before Tantalus could succeed, a gust of evil wind blew, and a giant lizard leaped over with a sledgehammer raised high in its hand.

"boom!"

The sledgehammer fell, the ground shook, and smoke and dust rose.

Tantalus quickly gathered his strength and twisted his body forcefully to avoid the attack. His ability was indeed very outstanding. Even in that situation, he was able to gather his strength and dodge.

When the smoke and dust cleared, the four-meter-tall monitor lizard pulled the sledgehammer up from the ground. Slako rode on the monitor lizard's neck with a very frustrated expression. He had such a good opportunity, but he couldn't take this man down.

Of course, although he failed to defeat the human general, he saved Zandata, which can be regarded as the completion of Slako's goal.

At this time, the situation on the battlefield had changed again. After the Lizardmen launched the attack, Hellion launched the final general offensive. He led the elite human knights to the battlefield, and Werner's elite undead troops also rushed up.

The Magras people, who had just held the front line and started to push back, suffered another heavy blow, and their defense line collapsed almost instantly.

Hellion rode into the battlefield and killed two knights who came towards him at first sight, like a killing god.

At the same time, Kevin, who had transformed into a beast, leaped directly into the battlefield, waving his sharp claws and reaping the lives of the Magrath people. Then he was entangled by a brave knight of the kingdom. Several knights surrounded Kevin, preparing to kill the vampire.

"Hellion! You actually betrayed the Duke!" Hellion was also stopped by a Lionheart Knight, another lieutenant of Tantalus, Motrio.

Motriou brought hundreds of knights here to stabilize the morale of the army. He had already completed the mission and was even ready to take people back to rescue Marshal Tantalus who was attacked by beastmen. What he didn't expect was that the enemy actually had a backup plan.

This back-up plan made Motrio unable to hold his breath. Wasn't this Hellion?! Although there were some changes, Motrio was sure that he was not mistaken!

"Oh? It's you, Morterio."

Hellion pulled the reins and looked at his old colleague in front of him. He naturally recognized Morteo, who was also a Lionheart Knight under Duke Drum. They were colleagues and competitors, and he and Morteo had always had a bad relationship.

"I've long suspected you were no good, and sure enough, you've become a traitor and an enemy of the Duke!"

Motrio said "Pooh" and was very disgusted with Hellion's behavior.

"Noisy."

There was a flash of blood in Hellion's eyes. He didn't care much about Mortreo's insults because he was not very loyal to Duke Drum. Naturally, he was not afraid of being called a traitor.

It has always been like this. Hellion has been working hard to become stronger and to move to the next level, so that his position is actually more inclined towards the Church of the Goddess of the Sea, because his master is a Knight Templar of the Church of the Goddess of the Sea.

Although Duke Drum also believed in the Goddess of the Sea, the power struggle between the Duke and the Church had never stopped. As someone who worked under Duke Drum but sided with the Goddess of the Sea, it was naturally difficult for him to have a good relationship with his colleagues.

Riding his horse forward, Hellion chose to take direct action. On the battlefield, when two opponents meet on a narrow road, no matter how much he says, it is useless. In the end, the real battle will come down to fighting. He shouted loudly, but was killed in one move. It was nothing but a joke.

Motrio was not afraid and went straight forward. They were all Lionheart Knights and had fought each other before. They had fought each other many times in tournaments and private competitions. Motrio really didn't think he would lose to Hellion. He was much more experienced than Hellion.

"Qiang!"

Both of them were armed with two-handed greatswords, galloping on their horses, and they faced each other directly with swords, and then Motrio's expression changed.

The pressure Hellion put on him was enormous. Just one blow was enough to make him almost lose his grip on the weapon. This pressure was much stronger than before. He didn't look like the Lionheart Knight, but was no worse than Marshal Tantalus. This was not the strength Hellion should have at all!
"Well, Morteo, isn't it too early to brag?"

Hellion said with a dangerous smile on his face and his eyes flashing red, which made Morterio immediately realize the reason.

"Hellion! You actually became a vampire's lackey!"

Motrio gritted his teeth and held on, secretly groaning in his heart. No wonder Hellion became so much stronger in such a short time.

To become stronger, to gain power, to betray Duke Drum and the Goddess of the Sea, this seemed like something Hellion could do.

Motriou has a really big personal prejudice against Hellion. In fact, Hellion did not choose to betray him at the first time, but just did not choose to die after being defeated.
