Baron Cullen

"Ugh!!"

Donald froze, a look of shock flashing in his eyes.

But as a fifth-tier mage, the moment he was injured, he instinctively condensed a ball of crimson flame in his right hand and flung it backward!

boom!

The flames exploded instantly, blasting Dominic's head off behind him!

Then the stiff, headless corpse swayed and suddenly disintegrated into a large amount of blood, splattering all over the ground.

"Ahhh!!"

However, Donald was pale and convulsing as he knelt on the ground, as if he were enduring unspeakable pain.

"President of the Mage Association, are you satisfied with my gift?" Dominic, standing not far away, had a smug sneer on his face. "Fifth-tier blood magic, Corrupted Blood Collapse."

My blood has already mixed into yours. As long as you use supernatural elements, they will frantically corrode and destroy your internal organs.

Of course... even if you don't use it, it will slowly erode you until it devours everything in your body!

No sooner had he finished speaking than Donald coughed up a mouthful of blood.

The blood contained fragments of partially decayed internal organs.

He knelt on the ground, curled up, and convulsed in pain.

"Now that Fiona and Donald are both down..." Dominic turned to Serena, his eyes filled with undisguised greed, "we can finally have some fun."

Seeing this, Karen immediately drew his sword and stood in front of Serena, saying, "Your Excellency, I'll stop him. You hurry up and leave here to find Deputy Chief Bright and the others outside the city!"

His target is the holy artifact and...your blood, so you absolutely cannot be harmed!

Serena shook her head, her delicate face calm, but her eyes blazing with fury: "No, as a saintess, I bear the mercy of the God of Light. How can I flee from such utterly wicked heretics!"

Karen only then realized what was happening.

Eliminating heresy is the duty of divine servants, not to mention someone like Serena, who is hailed as a "born divine servant."

To allow them to escape at this time would be tantamount to betraying one's own beliefs.

Thinking of this, he said, "I'm very sorry, I misspoke just now."

"In that case, let's work together to eliminate this heretic!"

Dominic just watched the two of them quietly, as if he were watching a ridiculous drama.

"Have you reached an agreement?" He sneered disdainfully as he slowly walked towards the two of them. "If you've reached an agreement, then let's all die together!"

However, the moment he took a step, he suddenly felt an indescribable chill coming from behind him!

That's the smell of death!

He turned abruptly, first glancing at Donald, who lay lifeless on the ground, then looking at Fiona in the distance…

At this moment, Fiona had managed to stand up with difficulty.

She lowered her head, her shoulder-length short hair obscuring her face, but her hand gripped the long sword that had just been sheathed.

The next moment, an extremely terrifying aura began to sweep out from her body!

The longsword, imbued with all her extraordinary elements, began to emit something extremely pure…

Fiona slowly raised her head, her eyes fixed on Dominic.

Then she took a step forward, and suddenly disappeared from the spot!

In that instant, her speed was beyond description!

Dominic only saw a flash of light before his eyes, and then…

He was then split in two!

A huge gash ran diagonally down from his left shoulder to his right waist!

In just a moment, his upper body slid to the ground.

His lower body swayed a few times before he collapsed with a thud!

Blood gushed out, staining the nearby ground red.

Fiona appeared a dozen meters away.

She stood still, maintaining the motion of swinging her knife.

Then she tilted her head slightly, and her tired and pained eyes, hidden beneath her short hair, glanced at Karen.

Immediately afterwards, the long sword slipped from his hand and fell to the ground, his body went limp and he collapsed.

She completely lost consciousness.

For a moment, the area around the church was deathly silent.

Everyone stared blankly at Dominic, who was split in two on the ground, unable to believe what had just happened.

Only Karen was the first to react.

He rushed to Fiona's side to check on her.

His breathing was very weak, and his pulse was almost imperceptible, but thankfully he was still alive.

However, the rampant curse had wreaked havoc on Fiona's body.

Without a doubt, this supreme expert of the City of No Breath is now as fragile as a candle flickering in the wind.

"Heal! Quickly!" Karen shouted at Serena.

Serena strode over and unleashed her divine power without hesitation, healing Fiona's injuries as much as possible.

The divine power has an extremely strong restraining effect on curses, so Fiona's originally almost bloodless face improved slightly.

However, the curse within her was too vicious and ferocious; Serena's third-tier divine power was simply insufficient to completely counter it.

"I can only stabilize Leader Fiona's condition for now..." Serena said urgently, "To truly suppress the curse within her, Bishop Albert needs to personally intervene!"

Upon hearing this, Karen felt slightly relieved.

The turmoil in the church has now been resolved, and the most dangerous enemy has fallen.

Next, all he and Serena need to do is rush to the Dark Forest with the sacred artifact to aid Bright and the others, and successfully subdue Vaughn, who has been transformed into a werewolf.

Then we can wait for Albert to return, and there will still be room for everything to be salvaged!

But just as he was thinking this, he caught an unbelievable glimpse out of the corner of his eye…

The two pieces of Dominic's body lying on the ground not far away actually moved!

The body that was split in two was not truly dead!

Karen suddenly remembered something and hurriedly got up.

He made such a fatal mistake!

Vampires can only be completely killed using weapons or abilities imbued with divine aura!

Fiona's strike just now was indeed incredibly powerful...

However, her weapon did not possess the slightest trace of divine aura!

Thinking of this, Karen suddenly grabbed the Demon Hunter Silver Crossbow from his waist, nocked an arrow, and fired at the two pieces of corpse on the ground!

Whoosh!

The Demon-Hunting Arrow, imbued with a strong sacred aura, whistled out and headed straight for Dominic's corpse!

But just as the arrow was about to pierce the corpse, blood on the ground along the way suddenly surged up, forming irregular, disgusting chunks of flesh, which abruptly stopped it!

"No, no, no!"

Karen's pupils contracted sharply. Just as he was about to nock another arrow, he heard a sharp whooshing sound coming from ahead!

His heart skipped a beat!

Almost instinctively, it rolled to the side to dodge.

boom!

A deafening roar echoed throughout the area.

Karen didn't bother to check what had made the loud noise; she quickly reloaded her arrows and aimed them at Dominic's corpse.

But just as he raised his hand, a bloodless and icy hand suddenly grabbed his wrist!

"Interesting! It's a weapon specifically designed to counter my race..." Dominic stood unharmed before him, a cruel smile playing on his pale face. "Too bad you shouldn't have brought it out now!"

After saying that, he kicked Karen away.

"I almost... I really almost died..." Dominic looked at Fiona, who lay motionless on the ground, his bloodshot eyes filled with lingering fear. "I never imagined that even after secretly placing a curse on you for so long..."

You can actually unleash such terrifying power!

That strike was too fast; he was cleaved in two before he could even react.

At that moment, Dominic felt incredibly fortunate.

If he hadn't followed Randall's advice and set up the spellbook scheme beforehand to curse Fiona...

Today is his death day!

He clearly remembered what Randall had said at the time:

"Don't underestimate Fiona Ilén Noel, that woman is terrifying, she's a genius among geniuses."

Bringing his thoughts back, Dominic looked at Serena.

Although he had just used up most of his stored essence and blood to recover quickly, his strength had dropped to the fourth rank.

But it was all worth it.

Now, Fiona and Donald, who could threaten him, have completely lost their fighting power, and what remains are just some insignificant fodder.

Next, all he needs to do is drain the saintess of her blood and then obtain the sacred artifact…

Today's plan was once again a huge success.

With this in mind, Dominic stopped being arrogant and unleashed his full power!

He suddenly transformed into a dark red afterimage and pounced on Serena, his right hand forming a claw as he aimed straight for her throat!
