Chapter 660: Eradication

xposed our plan, you fools! You didn't even equip her with a controller.Corvette's voice was somewhat eerie, making Hauser feel a chill down his spine."Tell them to release the wolf pups and have them...The deafening roar of the explosion agitated the monsters fighting on the second floor, especially when falling bricks revealed to the players that the castle was collapsing. They fought their way out while simultaneously retreating from the crumbling fortress.

As everyone was evacuating the castle, it "rumbled and shook," collapsing in half. Dust filled the air along with terrifying screams.

Then everyone saw a black figure jump out of the ruins. With a graceful turn in mid-air, the knife in its hand plunged into the heart of the monster that leaped out together, instantly eliminating one monster.

"It's Miss Ripple!"

Someone sharp-eyed said.

"I told you she'd be fine, she's probably on the third floor by now."

Someone immediately said.

"Stop chatting! Open your eyes, there's a new monster!"

At the sight of them, those creatures leaping from the ruins of the ancient castle and falling behind the ripples were taller, fiercer, and bloodier than any they had killed before. In the blink of an eye, two companions had fallen.

The ripples' indiscriminate assault on the third floor of the ancient castle had some effect, killing a third of the hybrid monsters. The remaining creatures immediately surrounded her, intent on keeping her there. Fortunately, Ripple reacted swiftly, using her Death Threads and dual blades to slaughter another dozen or so monsters. She only escaped when the third floor finally collapsed.

Although there were at least fifty monsters remaining, the collapse of the castle brought all the players together. Another battle ensued, with a player-to-monster ratio of 1:2. This meant that each player had to eliminate at least two monsters to ensure the complete extermination of these hybrids.

But ripples is an exception, her combat strength is too powerful, especially after knowing the weakness of the hybrid monsters, she does not do any useless work at all. Her figure rotates and maneuvers in the monster group, that deadly silk is almost a tool to harvest the lives of monsters.

> At the same time, all players will hear a prompt sound in their ears after killing the monster, indicating that points have been credited to them. The points range from one hundred to one thousand points per monster, depending on the level of the monster they killed.

Not until the blood moon had completely vanished did the battle finally reach its climax. At this point, Ripple was under siege by five towering three-meter tall monsters. They seemed consumed with hatred for Ripple, barely offering any defense as they lunged at her with the sole purpose of killing her.

Rill knew that these five were the ancestors of the five strongest hybrids in Dracula's Castle, with powerful defenses because her deadly silk couldn't pierce their chests in one go.

After her hair tie was broken by the ripples, she decisively put away her twin blades and drew out Lei Yao Sword. With a divine weapon in hand and her ghostly movements, she killed three monsters in the blink of an eye, earning six thousand points.

Seeing the situation was wrong, the other two monsters reacted instantly. One charged towards Ripple, while the other turned and fled, obviously trying to preserve its last vestiges of bloodline. However, Ripple wouldn't give the creature a chance, directly flinging her Lei Yao Sword, aiming straight for the fleeing monster's heart.

Ripple, however, met the charging monster head-on. One hand, like a vise, clamped down on the opponent's wrist as it tried to crush her head. Her other hand balled into a fist and delivered a punch from afar, smashing directly into the monster's heart. The creature instantly turned to ash.

Even the fleeing monster couldn't escape Lei Yaojian's strike, getting pierced through the heart. The monster plummeted from the sky, its form shrinking rapidly until it transformed into Henry's likeness.

Ripples' hair was now dishevelled, falling around her as she walked slowly towards Henry. His blue eyes flickered with a desperate plea as he spoke in broken words:

"Miss Ripple, please let me live! I'm willing to give you everything I have!"

R ripples glanced faintly at Henry, whose face was ashen, and said coldly:

“You use the bodies of innocent maidens to conceive offspring, and then prolong your own lives by consuming humans. This castle, steeped in bloodshed, is teeming with vengeful spirits. You are beings that should never have existed. It’s best you leave peacefully.”

As the ripples of her words fell, she retracted Lei Yao Jian with a flick of her wrist. Henry, at last, turned to ashes and vanished before their very eyes.

"Ding! Congratulations to the player, all hybrid monsters have been eliminated, and you have leveled up to an intermediate player. Do you want to enter the next game level"

The mechanical electronic sound echoed once more, but ripples detected a hint of melancholy in the flat tone.

Ripples rubbed her ears and said to the ten female players who had survived:

"You guys go first! I'll wrap things up!"

Some female players were shrewd and left immediately when the warning sound went off, while some players thought that Ripples was hiding something and she hadn't gotten her benefits yet, so they didn't leave. Therefore, three players only retreated two steps, putting some distance between themselves and Ripples, but they didn't choose to leave Dracula's Castle.

As for these people's actions, Lian Ri pretended not to see them. Since they wanted to stay and watch the commotion, let them. Anyway, she had Shi Ju supporting her, so she would definitely be able to leave this place safely. As for the others, she couldn't guarantee their safety.

Ripple arrived at the rose garden and brandished her cursed dagger. The blade, like a cat that had smelled fish, hovered directly above the red roses and began to devour their malice. The roses, drained of all their resentment, instantly lost their vibrant color, turning black before dissolving into ash like the monsters.

The remaining three were surprised to find that the ripple's dagger was so powerful. They couldn't even bother to investigate, because in the next instant, the entire Dracula Castle began to crumble and fall apart, like a painting losing its support, twisting, deforming, and shattering.

"No! Run!"

Three people realized something was wrong and wanted to leave the game level, but they discovered they had been pulled into a shattered vortex, unable to escape. In the end, they could only watch as Ripple sheathed her dagger and vanished before them.

"Wait a minute"

These were the last two words Ripple heard, an opportunity given to them, but they chose to wait for death. It's not her fault.

After the ripples vanished, Dracula's Castle instantly turned into nothingness. The familiar mechanical sound once again echoed in the pitch-black space:

"Alarm! Alarm! Severe power depletion, unable to maintain the Bloody Castle game module! Hope the system repairs as soon as possible! Hope the system repairs as soon as possible!"

...and now, as a mid-level player, Ripple appears on a rapidly moving train.

The moment ripples opened her eyes, she realized that several pairs of malicious eyes were scanning her back and forth, blatant and unrestrained.

With a flick of her eyes, she knew her situation. She was currently inside a cargo train carriage with at least thirty other people, and her destination remained unknown.

But the people around her each exuded a fierce aura, she was like a white rabbit who fell into a wolf pack, especially eye-catching.
