Limitless The Strongest Revenant

[My lord, to minimize the backlash, please deactivate [Dual pilot], call for me when you are in a pinch.]

"I have control," at my words I felt Exa's control on my limbs disappear.

"[Combat Shadow Silhouette]: Aki." additionally while Robyn's silhouette was extremely versatile, when I needed to be both fast and sneaky, Aki's was the better choice. While I was acting as bait, being stealthy still made sense.

It was a shame that the enemies were Vampires, otherwise I could just remain in one spot and hide with [Translucent]. Even I knew that the mosquito vampires would be able to sniff me out.

Vampires. One of perhaps the oldest beings from the figment of man's imagination. They were supposed to be monsters that were faster, stronger and tougher than humans. They also slept in coffins, and amazing senses. Finally, they had servants such as familiars or ghouls.

Known weaknesses include garlic, sunlight and silver. Their meals comprised of the blood of humans. Virgins were supposedly the best. Through the years the definition or concept of the "Vampire" remained the same.

Although as the world got more liberal and perverted, they lewded the fuck out of anything they could mate with. These days, ask any weeb, nerd or geek, and most of them would willingly get bitten by a beautiful vampire. It didn't even matter to most if the vampire would treat them as a spouse, lover or pet.

Forget the fact that their souls were damned. As well as the fact that the danger of them drinking you dry existed. So long as she had big boobs or small boobs for some, it was fine. Funnily enough the origin of Vampires themselves were shrouded in mystery.

Some say they were cursed. Others that they were punished for their greed and vanity. But there was one universal truth that remained the same across all media that had Vampires in them.

They fucking got jacked whenever they get to drink blood.

And the fucking cheater in front of me was the same. From almost burned and dismembered, this bastard was now almost healed. And he did so by using the {All for one} army.

[My lord, we only have 20 seconds remaining! We must flee!]

"Tsk."

Without a second glance I turned back and invoked [Afterburner]. My destination Zone 1327-7. Or the Zone on the farthest zone of this floor. One of the two corners in this pizza pie.

"WHERE ARE YOU…"

Gaspar who tried to follow me was intercepted by something. Knowing that the entire {All for one} humanoids were alternative version of me, they must have used {Rewind}.

Under the gunfire of over a million John Smiths from alternate realities I escaped. While it hurt my pride to run away, I had a goal. The current one was to draw the enemy away from the Sirens. That was the entire point of using {Fate Breaker}.

Consuming a high number of souls created a strong signature, it did not last permanently but would persist for more than a few minutes. Thus, to the rest of the floor it would be like I had giant ass billboards pointing to me.

'Hopefully this would help them. Ghouls should be drawn but Vampires had the ability to resist such obvious baits, I hope it would be enough.'

[My lord, I do not think you have to worry about that. Vampires even in fiction are known to be hedonists. The thirst to feed normally drives them feral. This trait is the same even in reality. A Vampire only becomes a Noble Vampire once they already have this trait under control.]

'I see. Then even the Vampires would leave the Sirens and Juno and run straight to me?'

[Yes, that would be the case. And given the power of the Sirens, the Noble Vampires who rarely take any risk should be able to reach the corridor.]

'What about those coming from the Hellsgate Corridor?'

[It should still apply. One of the reasons the zones and floors are intentionally separated is to ensure that the size and duration of the battles can be controlled. For example, If a tanks taunts traveled beyond a single zone, rather than protect his party he would doom them instead.]

'That makes sense…kind of. But how does that affect our current situation.'

[The Vampires used all available Stone Borne at their disposal to keep the corridor open. This allows their army to bypass the check and enter unimpeded. But it also allows the soul resonances of the 32nd floor travel beyond the floors.]

'Exa, you are starting to sound like Phillip.'

[Simply put. If we consider your {Soul Breaker} as a taunt. It will travel along this entire floor and beyond the corridor. Even when the effect expires any being exposed to it would still have your soul signature seared into their minds.]

'So, they would chase after me even when others no longer are.'

[Precisely.]

'Well fuck!'

As we flew rapidly across the skies, bats with red eyes began to clump up in front of me. This probably meant they were reforming into Vampires. Others however didn't and just charged towards me like a giant group of locusts.

"Fuck you flying assholes! Really? You intend to have me attacked with bats?"

The said bats were not really that huge. They were maybe 4 to 5 feet wing to wing. But their bodies were barely 14 inches long. And they were skinny. So, while it did look intimidating to have such a huge number come at you. They were nothing more than rats. Explore more at My Virtual Library Empire

"[Inventory] AA-12s. Exa, Sacreds only."

[Understood. Oh, by the way my lord. I should probably brief you on the differences about Vampires in fiction and Hellsgate.]

Pulling the triggers I blasted the coming bats without remorse. The mighty AA-12 had good reliability and was able to spit out 12-gauge slugs almost at the speed of AR styled rifles.

With two of them clearing the way I punched through the bat cloud with ease. Each explosion of golden light coming from my guns vaporized the bats in front of me.

They didn't even manage to leave a corpse nor a drop of blood. I began to sweep my hands sideways as the loud thundering screams of the AA-12 roared.

"Sure! Go ahead!"

[First, among the weaknesses recorded in fiction only two are real. Vampires die in sunlight. And second, they can get stunned or disorientated when staked to the heart. Garlic, silver, crucifixes or the nonsense about vampires having OCD are all myths.]

"YOU LIKE THAT? HERE! HAVE SOME MORE YOU FUCKING FLYING RATS!"

From the large number of Vampire shows available the lore about them was all over the place. The interpretations naturally were due to the creative liberties of the authors, film makers and the like. But part of me wondered if Trinity was to blame.

After all it was more dangerous to have incorrect information than to not have any at all. Say a Vampire hunter gave his all to stake a vampire with a silver crucifix. Ignoring that he basically died in vain, he might have fought more conservatively trying to uncover his enemy's weakness.

Much like how IRIS tried to arm the humans with knowledge about Hellsgate, Trinity was actively to include lies as well. The implication would be Reapers operating on incorrect knowledge convinced they were right.

[Also, my lord. There is one danger unique to Hellsgate Vampires.]

Smashing away a Bat that managed to bite my face, I yelled out in annoyance, "Ugh! FUCK OFF! Exa, details please?"

[Vampires are known to be able to use the {Fates} or Reapers. Those that are active in combat normally drink the blood of Reapers then hypnotize them to revealing the key words. For your safety, do not shout the activation key words in the presence of Gaspar.]

Just when you think these fucking bastards could not even get more OP. I guess I should be lucky that the ones attacking me were in hiding. Otherwise, they would have even more abilities.

If they reach the surface once they steal {Fates}, they would be able to overwhelm even Reapers. And for most who invoke their {Fates} with their lips, the Vampires would not only learn the keywords but how to fight with the Reaper's {Fates}.

"FUCK! EXA! [Inventory] M107!"

[Ammunition swapped to .50 BMG Sacreds.]

Just then one of the AA-12's suddenly jammed. And as the M134 minigun was being used by Lilly, I opted to swap out the shotgun for M107 anti-material rifle.

"CAN THEY USE MORE THAN ONE {FATE}?"
