Chapter 776 The Combat Escalates
As a bloodline adept, Gerndt was practically fearless after transforming into the bloodmouth!
If Mary had been an elementium adept, he might still have been worried about being kited and worn down by long ranged spells. However, Gerndt had nothing to be concerned about against a vampire that specialized in Agility.
The weak attacks of vampires was a universally known fact. Trying to break through his fine scales with Mary’s thin claws was no more than a delusion. Without the ability to deal damage, the talent of the vampires to consume blood and regenerate would be useless.
Meanwhile, Mary would be in a terrible pinch if the chilling jaws of the bloodmouth caught her. Regardless of how strong her magical defenses were, she would not be able to escape the fate of being bitten in half.
Thus, Gerndt did not retreat when he saw Mary approaching. Instead, he put on a wicked smile and rapidly charged at Mary with his fat body, like a magical fish that couldn’t walk on land.
If one had to pick out a weakness of the bloodmouth, it would be their lack of long-ranged skills. Their mobility was also on the slower side amongst Second Grades. However, their tough defensive scales and fearsome mouth that could devour everything made up for most of these weaknesses, turning them into ferocious magical creatures that most would not dare to provoke.
Mary rapidly began to circle the bloodmouth upon nearing him. She also started frequently using her crimson claws to prod and probe for any weaknesses on his body. Gerndt ignored Mary’s attacks and relied on his scales to block them all. He also started moving about, trying to get Mary’s body within the range of his bite.
It was important to note that the Cenas Clan’s forces had three Second Grade adepts.
Their arrival could substantially compensate for the lack of high-grade fighting forces on Andorra’s part. The three thousand human fighters might not be able to affect the grand scheme of things, but the three Second Grades were an important weight that could affect the balance of the entire battle.
The higher-ups’ idea was actually straightforward. They wanted to force Mary and the other vampires to retreat and provide space for their noble’s army to exterminate the magical machines. The Alliance army could only officially launch their attack against the tower once they did away with the annoying obstacle that was the magical machine army!
