Chapter 84 The Ninth True Ancestor

"The smell is so strong."

The moment he stepped into the tunnel, Nangong Chiyue frowned unhappily.

It's like being surrounded by something disgusting, feeling a physical aversion.

"really."

Ye Wen nodded. From his enlightened perspective, the entire dark tunnel was densely covered with various colored marks. Just by looking at these marks, one could imagine the appearance of countless werewolves traveling through the underground tunnel.

"Speaking of which," Ye Wen turned around and looked at Corday at the end of the line, "I found a werewolf's body at school yesterday morning. The cause of death was that its heart was melted at close range by some kind of firearm."

"Did you do that, Corday?"

"Me? No, it's not me." Corday shook her head, her twin ponytails swaying with the curve of her head. "I only arrived in this city yesterday afternoon, and by the time I went to the school to find you according to the directions, it was already dark."

"I was still on my way this morning."

"Oh, I see."

Ye Wen turned his head expressionlessly: "Then it's alright, let's continue."

Since it wasn't Corday's, it means that earlier that morning, another being, suspected to be a witcher, had quietly infiltrated the campus and killed a werewolf.

Ye Wen counted on his fingers, the crisp sound echoing in the darkness.

They're so casual with each of them; they really don't respect him, the vice president of the student council.

People from other schools need to apply to him in advance to enter the school. Don't you know that?

Ye Wen felt it was necessary to uphold his authority as the vice president of the student council.

Since the president couldn't figure out the solution to the problem and thought it would be great to see both teams working on it at the same time, he created the tunnel. So, the tunnel was actually dug out little by little.

As for the people who dug it and the total length of the tunnel, we can only ask the president who was still doing his homework back then by traveling back in time.

After Ye Wen discovered the tunnel, he made his own lock and locked the door. He was basically the only one in the school who knew about this place.

Now, looking at the huge opening that suddenly appeared in the middle of the tunnel, Ye Wen nodded slightly.

obviously.

This thing is not part of the construction tasks of Team A and Team B.

It was only recently unearthed, and the one who unearthed it was naturally a werewolf.

Numerous, dense, and chaotic traces of activity remained on the edge of the cave entrance, emitting a pungent odor. Hard hairs and a trace of disgusting residue could be vaguely seen on the stone surface.

Without a doubt, this large hole is the werewolves' base camp.

"It tastes absolutely disgusting."

Nangong Chiyue suddenly spoke up: "Even in hell, werewolves are a race I particularly hate."

"Violent, insidious, and filthy, like the lowest of beasts, yet possessed with a human brain."

"Not proud enough as a human, not pure enough as a beast, stuck in the middle, disgusting and nauseating."

"You're right, aren't you?"

"Ugly stray dog."

She looked up at the tunnel ceiling, where, where there should have been rugged earth and rocks, a pair of blood-green eyes had suddenly opened.

And there's more than one pair.

The entire tunnel seemed to have been suddenly lit up with glow sticks, its surface covered in a dense green mass. Instantly, grinding teeth and low howls mingled, signaling an attack.

The entire "tunnel" moved.

Countless werewolves roared and launched an attack on Ye Wen and his companions, their stench creating a storm that tore at everyone's senses.

At the same time, various colored lights lit up, a prelude to the werewolves preparing to launch elemental reactions: freezing, intensification, overload, superconductivity, evaporation—

If such a massive elemental reaction were to erupt in a narrow tunnel, it would surely produce incredibly spectacular damage numbers.

So, all we need to do is prevent them from dealing damage.

In the darkness, Ye Wen shook his head.

too slow.

The movements are too slow.

Crimson chrysanthemums bloomed in his indifferent eyes. Under the limit of his vision, the werewolves moved as slowly as snails. Ye Wen walked through the gaps in the elements, passing by one werewolf after another.

As he walked past, the werewolf's neck was snapped unnaturally with a sickening sound, and three invisible hands ran rampant behind Ye Wen's back, like a dark sneer.

Meanwhile, Nangong Chiyue and Kedai also launched their operation.

Corday pulled out the ridiculously long, enormous black gun from under her skirt. She deftly inserted her hand into the gun, and the hemolytic explosion erupted. Without Ye Wen's restraint, she finally managed to fire the ammunition. The laser-like energy pulse stretched along the tunnel, incinerating the werewolves along the entire path into ashes.

Nangong Chiyue's approach was much quieter. She simply sat gracefully on the suitcase that had been opened a crack, doing nothing, but the werewolf beside her was disappearing at an astonishing speed, without a sound.

It was as if something had eaten him, soul and bones alike.

In short, everyone disliked werewolves and put in their best effort. After a series of noises and special effects, most of the werewolves were dead.

"So weak."

Ye Wen deactivated his super-limited vision and looked at the werewolf corpses scattered on the ground: "Teacher, are these the troublesome werewolves you mentioned?"

"I feel like it's easier to beat them than to beat a dog."

Corday nodded in agreement: "Indeed, when I saw so many werewolves, I was prepared for a tough fight, but they were so weak."

Nangong Chiyue frowned slightly.

Something's not right.

"This strength is like that of a newly born race, but how could a newly born race arrive here without anyone noticing?"

She looked up at the emptiness in front of her.

"Let's go in and take a look."

For some reason, Nangong Chiyue felt a surge of irritation.

It was an ingrained hostility and expulsion, like the idea that two tigers wouldn't coexist in the same territory.

However, as a newly born True Ancestor, Nangong Chiyue was unaware of what this agitation represented.

The three-person team entered the tunnel's hollow. At first, the traces of werewolf activity were quite dense, but they became sparser as they went deeper, until—there were none at all.

The end of the cave entrance leads to a clean and tidy room (compared to the one before).

The room was filled with all sorts of books and experimental equipment. An Asian man with frizzy hair and glasses was sitting at the desk, writing something.

Noticing the arrival of the three, he stopped writing, turned his head, and revealed the same scarlet eyes as Nangong Chiyue.

The moment they saw him, both Nangong Chiyue and Corday's hearts skipped a beat.

One is disgust, the other is fear.

It was as if I had seen something that could never possibly be here.

"Oh, I'm sorry."

Instant Noodle Hair scratched his head: "I wanted them to stall for time, but you guys arrived faster than I expected."

"There's nothing we can do about that."

The instant noodle-headed man laughed and said, "I'll have to kill you all myself."

In that instant, crimson crystals covered the cave.

Corday and Nangong Chiyue simultaneously grabbed Ye Wen's left and right hands.

"run!"

"That guy, that guy is the Ninth True Ancestor of the Vampire Clan!"

"Run! Run!!!"

Corday practically screamed it out.

As a witcher, she knew all too well what level of combat power a fully-formed vampire progenitor possessed.

Therefore, she couldn't figure out how the incomplete Nangong Chiyue could be hiding in the tunnel, unknown to everyone.

But they didn't have much time left to think it over.

Beneath their feet, the gray-black soil and rocks had been completely replaced by blood-red crystalline blocks.

The inherent powers of the True Ancestor.

To change the world.
