BXBX NOVEL Chapter 67: Quinn, A Vampire!?
Every single step of Quinn shook the entire hall with such ferocity that the ground beneath Nolan began quaking from the power.
A mist of red began spreading throughout the entire floor, emanating from below Quinn\'s feet.
When he took off his robes, it revealed a naked upper body, half-covered in pitch-dark scales, brimming with crimson power, and etched with strange dark runes...
In the next instant...
RIIIIIP!
Something abysmal and red tore out from the back of Quinn.
Nolan wavered as Quinn rose from his feet, levitating off the ground by a few inches, before coming to a stop, ten meters away from Nolan.
"You know, Nolan. All of this power, I owe it to you."
"To your screams of agony, and your burning will for vengeance."
"They feed me, day and night, until eventually, it was enough for me to reach this level of power..."
Quinn said as he clenched his fist tightly, and the air within his grasp exploded.
"Ironic, wouldn\'t it be? If you ended up dying to the power that you created for me."
"Such a shame, wouldn\'t it be?" Quinn said with a devilish smile as his lips curved to reveal elongated fangs.
Tendrils of blood began appearing in Quinn\'s palms, covering his hands tightly and then, they drilled back once more, with his hand having morphed into a sharp ghostly claw.
Nolan\'s eyes narrowed as he recognized the form.
\'He\'s a vampire! At least, one of his bloodlines is...\' Nolan noted to himself.
"Every single bit of what you took from me, I\'ll take it back!"
Nolan said as his chains unfurled from his hands, spinning around him with twice their original intensity.
"You\'re ignorant and blind, and soon, you\'ll realize that!" Quinn said, and then...
SCREEEEECCCH!
An ear-piercing, inhuman screech rang out as Quinn\'s red wings vibrated.
Then, he burst forth with speed, rapidly flashing towards Nolan, who took a single step forward at the exact moment Quinn took off.
Nolan\'s dagger flashed forth with horrifying speed, tearing through the air, preparing to clash with Quinn\'s red claw as it slashed downward.
BAAAANG!
A deafening explosion of flame and blood rang out as Nolan found himself being driven backward uncontrollably.
Yet, regaining his gaze forward, he saw a sinister figure grinning sadistically, appearing right before his face with a sickening smile.
"I am simply beyond anything you have ever seen..." Quinn whispered to Nolan.
Instantly, Nolan\'s daggers slashed towards Quinn\'s face, tearing through it, but meeting nothing but an afterimage as Quinn flickered to the side, dodging the dagger, and then...
CLENCH!
His claws wrapped around Nolan\'s throat and then...
KAAABOOOOOOOOM!
A devastating explosion rippled through the entire hall as Quinn slammed Nolan into the ground, carving a meter-deep crater.
BLEEEERRRGGHH!
Hot blood spilled forth from Nolan\'s lips as he felt an incredibly painful reverberation that sent every one of his pain receptors blasting at their highest frequency.
The world flashed before him, and then...
BAAAAAAAANGGG!
BAAAAANG!
BAAAANG!
Three successive slams boomed through the hall once more as Quinn effortlessly carried him off the ground, slamming him into the ground three times before vanishing from where he stood, crashing Nolan\'s body into the wall, carving a human-shaped crater within it.
His wings shook a little, and then he shot forward with speed, using Nolan\'s body to tear a long line through the entire wall before finally throwing him out of the hall.
After performing a 360-degree body slam, Quinn reappeared before Nolan, slashing toward his face with speed.
CLAAAANG!
At the last second, Nolan placed the dagger before his face, blocking the attack, but was sent flying into the distance with even more speed.
In the next instant, Quinn appeared before him once more, this time, kicking towards his head.
"IDIOT!" Nolan called out in contempt as he suddenly wrapped his entire body around Quinn\'s legs.
With a backward motion, he altered Quinn\'s momentum, slinging him towards the ground with such force that Quinn dropped and then...
BAAAANG!
Quinn\'s face was roughly smashed into the ground by the sudden change in momentum as Nolan released his legs, standing upright to his feet.
"DIE!"
Nolan roared out like a deranged beast as he stepped forth toward Quinn\'s head, which was still nailed into the ground.
BAAAAANG!
The floor beneath Quinn gave way as Nolan\'s dagger roughly pierced through it, not only slicing through it like butter but carving a cobweb-like mark all over the area.
Slowly, Nolan grabbed hold of the dagger from the ground, turning behind him, and finding Quinn floating in the air once more, his eyebrows furrowed in disbelief.
Quinn couldn\'t understand how his winning position had suddenly turned against him. Nor could he fathom how Nolan had used his own momentum against him, smashing his face into the ground.
His eyes narrowed as he looked at Nolan, finding no injuries on him at all.
Even after the body slam on the ground and through the wall, Nolan had been able to protect himself so well that he suffered absolutely zero external injuries from them.
It was clear something was wrong, and that was due to a strange combat ability Nolan had never shown before.
"Scared?" the voice resounded an inch behind Quinn\'s ears as he watched Nolan\'s image before him fade away, and instantly...
RIIIIP!
The air was sliced apart as Nolan\'s dagger cleaved towards Quinn\'s ears, aiming to dig into his brain.
But Quinn was horrifyingly fast, instantly fading away like a specter, and in the next instant, Nolan\'s ribs were forcefully struck to the side.
A sickening blast hit his ribs, sending him flying to the side and smashing against the wall.
Instantly, Quinn raced to the wall, his claws reaching to tear Nolan out of it, yet his body was sent tossing back as a hand coated with green veins appeared out of the hole in the wall, slamming onto Quinn\'s unprotected face and sending him flying back until he crashed into the opposite wall.
"Tch,"
