Chapter 786: The Talisman Maniac
Statham was confused at the barrier or the mysterious power that reflected his attackā¦
However, he wouldnāt be the Vampire Lord if heād just give up after experiencing a simple setbackā¦
For a few moments, Statham gathered his Blood Energy as he tried to use his charm to stun Aya. He just needed a second or two, and if he succeeded, itād be a guaranteed winā¦
However, as Aya stood firm before the Crystal Core, she was also surrounded by her Barrier Talismans, protecting her at all times.
These werenāt just hastily created Talismans, but they were all carefully crafted by her from the very moment Shane recruited her. At first, she could only craft about 30 to 40 Talismans per day. There were even cases where it would be lower than that if their supplies of ink and paper were lacking.
Still, because of Shaneās hard work, she no longer had to worry about the supplies. She also drank a few bottles of Dragonās Veil Elixir and other miracle potions that made her a lot stronger.
Even if she was alone, she was confident to win this against a Vampire Lord who had a limited source of blood.
The Vampire Lord then took a deep breath as he realized that Aya was not affected by his charm skills.
āPaper charmsā¦ Do you think these scraps can shield you from me, girl?ā
Aya lifted her handā¦ This time, it was the Seal of Warding.
āLetās see what you can do, mosquitoā¦ā
At once, dozens of talismans along the strings ignited.
After that, chains made of white light appeared and started wrapping around the Vampire Lordās limbs and torso. It wasnāt just that, it also started burning his pale flesh!
Statham was roared as he ripped them apart with brute force, but each broken chain only fed more light into the chamber.
āIf you can regenerate indefinitely, then sealing you is the best option I haveā¦ā Aya muttered to herself since she already heard that Statham had the ability to revive himself even with just a single drop of blood
Crash!
Statham suddenly burst with power, and then, he turned into a mistā¦ However, he knew that in that form, he would be more vulnerable, so it only happened for a brief second to escape from the chains.
As soon as he reformed, the Vampire Lord charged forwardā¦ His speed was monstrous!
In an instant, he arrived in front of Aya, aiming to claw her throat.
However, even if Statham vanished from her sight, Aya knew that she was the only target he had to eliminate firstā¦
Bang!
Stathamās hands crashed against a Shield Talisman barrier that erupted in front of herā¦ Sparks sprayed as his nails scraped against the surface.
āThatās a bit too obvious, mosquitoā¦ā Aya said as she tried to mess with the vampireās mind.
Then, with her free hand, she slapped down a Lightning Talisman.
The charm detonated, and a lightning bolt came straight through the vampireās chest. His body jolted violently as he was directly hit!
There was even smoke rising from the wound!
However, the Vampire Lord was resilient! He only laughed and dissolved into a swarm of blood bats this timeā¦
Aya frowned at this as she clapped her palms together, activating the wards overheadā¦
āIgnition!ā
Just like that, thousands of talismans lit up at once.
The chamberās temperature suddenly became so high that walls of fire seared through the swarm.
The bats shrieked and burst into bloody mist.
Thudā¦
Just like that, the Vampire Lord reformed on the ground. He was obviously hurt by the move that Aya just pulled off. She spent a lot of Talisman on that move, but they were satisfying!
āYou insolent witch!ā
He thrust his hand forward and blood magic surgedā¦
Several red spears erupted from the ground, aiming to put holes on Ayaās body.
In answer, Aya activated a set of Stone Seal Talisman as slabs of earth emerged upward, forming a wall to block the attackā¦
Crashā¦ Crashā¦
The spears shattered against as Statham realized that his opponent was truly in control of this chamberā¦
It would be very difficult to win if he stayed in this placeā¦
However, his target, the Shelter Crystal, was located here.
āFineā¦ Letās see how youāll deal with thisā¦ā
Statham already had another plan as he crashed through the wall!
Suddenly, a spear of blood formed in his grip.
The weapon cleaved downward with his strength that was more than 300 points.
Bang!
Aya leapt back, activating a Wind Talisman. With this talisman, a burst of gales moved her across the chamber, saving her from Stathamās chaseā¦
The spear only struck the floor, carving a small craterā¦
Aya landed hard, but she was still perfectly fineā¦
Her eyes never left the monster in front of her as she knew that Stathamās speed could be dangerous to her.
Realizing that a follow-up was coming, she triggered a sequence of talismans across her own body: Body Reinforcement, Speed Boost, and Spirit Barrier.
Just like that, her aura surgedā¦ The fragile priestess was replaced by a warrior wrapped in reinforcements.
With this defense, she could at least focus on her offense!
Just like that, dozens of talismans peeled from the strings and followed her, orbiting like blades.
She then threw them like knives!
Many of them were Fireball Talismans exploding in wavesā¦ They were followed by Binding Talismans shooting chains to bind the Vampire Lordās limbs, and lastly, several more Lightning Talismans spearing him again and again!
āJust die, mosquito!ā
The chamber shook as the number of talismans she released had probably reached more than three thousand!
The Vampire Lord roared in rage as he was burned, chained, and sliced repeatedly!
Still, he endured, tearing through the seals with his blood energy!
However, he couldnāt even get closer to the young Shamanā¦
āYou!ā Statham was unable to do anything as he realized that he had indeed fallen into a trap. This Shelter Crystalās chamber wasnāt lightly protected.
This chamber was actually heavily protected by this Talisman maniac!
