Evolution game, nothing more than that!

Would it really be such a big deal to just kidnap Minnie Harker, who seems insignificant?

Now it seems that Yi Shen was right.

"But, in this situation, can Smith really handle it alone?"

Dracula looked at the scene that looked like a natural disaster and couldn't help but feel a little worried about his teammates.

"Don't worry. If it was any other form of attack, he might not be able to withstand it, but this kind of human wave attack... that's what he fears the least!"

Sakurajima Mai said confidently.

"That's right, Yi... We don't have to worry about Smith-kun's safety. What we should really worry about is whether he can get to Dracula and destroy him before he finds us."

Yamasaki An looked at the speed at which the tide of the dead was spreading toward the mountains and said with some concern.

Hearing her say this, the other two couldn't help but become worried.

Yes, if Dracula found them first and took back Minnie Harker, he would definitely take back the Dead River again and hide his weakness again, and everything they had done before would be in vain.

Chapter 107: Reversal of Vampirism

As Van Helsing and the two girls watched the eruption of the Dead River from afar, they did not notice that Minnie Harker suddenly opened her eyes in the ice wrapped in the rune stone.

Click!

With a crisp sound, cracks appeared faintly in the ice layer that wrapped around her.

Sakurajima Mai, who noticed the movement, turned around and looked over, her expression immediately changed drastically:

"Oh no, she's about to break the seal and come out!"

Hearing the reminder, Yamasaki An and Van Helsing turned around and also noticed the cracks on the ice, and their expressions changed as well.

"Damn it, Dracula's outburst must have stimulated her! I actually overlooked that!"

Yes, Van Helsing understood what was happening almost immediately.

He confused Minnie Harker's breath with the dark curse in the land. Although this did interfere with Dracula's perception and prevented him from discovering his wife, he forgot that this confusion also made Minnie Harker susceptible to the stimulation of the land itself.

When Dracula broke the seal and unleashed his full strength, the dark curse that appeared on the land because of him also rose. In turn, it stimulated Minnie Harker through the connection of the ritual, causing her to wake up on her own.

Unfortunately, it was too late for him to understand all this.

Before anyone could take any remedial measures, the ice exploded the next moment, and Minnie Huck leaped out with a roar, crawling on all fours on the broken ice, staring at the people on the field viciously like an enraged beast.

"We can't let her escape!"

Van Helsing raised his revolver and fired four shots in quick succession, accurately hitting the female vampire's arms and legs.

——The only lucky thing is that Minnie Harker is a vampire who has never experienced any battle. She has not even been awake for many times in the past hundreds of years. Even if she breaks out of the ice on her own initiative with the power of the dark curse, she is far from being able to control her extraordinary power.

In fact, she didn't even have much self-awareness left now, and was almost completely immersed in the blood-sucking urge brought about by her recent recovery from a serious injury and the dark curse.

This left her with almost no chance to dodge, allowing her to completely absorb all of Van Helsing's attacks.

Several silver bullets directly destroyed the joints of Minnie Hack's limbs, crippling her ability to move.

Mai Sakurajima immediately stepped forward and suppressed the other party.

But Minnie Harker continued to struggle, and her flailing hands and feet unexpectedly touched the rune stones on the ground, disrupting the formation.

In an instant, the ritual that had mingled her aura with the curse of the earth was broken.

The tide of zombies spreading in the distance suddenly paused, then immediately changed direction and rushed towards the hill where the few people were.

"Oh no, Dracula has discovered us!"

Upon noticing this, Yamasaki An immediately exclaimed in surprise.

Sakurajima Mai looked up and her expression changed.

"Van Helsing, is it too late to perform the reversal ritual on her now?"

She made a prompt decision and asked the exorcist directly.

Killing Minnie Harker was obviously not an option, because once she died, they would completely lose their bargaining chip.

But doing nothing would be even more fatal, as if Dracula took Minnie Harker back, the result would be the same.

The only option is to turn her back into a human before they lose this bargaining chip and completely sever her connection with Dracula.

After this, whether it is to move the position or continue to hide, there will be more room for maneuver.

But the key to the matter lies in whether Van Helsing can restore Minnie Harker to a human being in a short period of time.

"Now?!"

Van Helsing looked at Minnie Harker, who was still struggling, and then at the River of the Dead approaching rapidly in the distance. He thought for two seconds and nodded.

“It’s a bit tight, but it should be possible.”

He walked quickly forward, motioning to Sakurajima Mai to lift the female vampire up and expose her front, while he took out a piece of reddish-brown cloth from his backpack, and then took out a bottle of holy water. He then put the cloth into the holy water and swirled it to wash off some of the dark-brown "stains".

Then he pinched Minnie Huck's chin, forced her to open her mouth, and poured the bottle of "dirty water" into her mouth.

"Wait, this is holy water, right? Are you going to kill her?"

When Mai Sakurajima saw this scene, she screamed in surprise.

"Don't worry, I have a measure."

Van Helsing said.

The girl then noticed that after drinking the bottle of "spiked" holy water, Minnie Hack did not turn to ashes and die, but instead became limp as if she had fallen into a coma.

"The cloth I just added to the holy water is a fragment of the Holy Shroud, stained with the blood of Jesus. When she drinks the holy water mixed with the blood of the Son of God, it is equivalent to being forgiven of all her sins by Jesus himself."

Van Helsing quickly explained the reason for his actions, and without stopping, he drew a ceremonial dagger in his hand, and then quickly stabbed Minnie Harker's wrists and ankles, leaving a wound, and finally stabbed her from under her left ribs, straight through her heart.

"!!!"

Mai Sakurajima was so stunned by what she saw, isn't this really the execution of Minnie Harker?

But this time, before she could raise any doubts, Van Helsing started to explain:

"Jesus' blood could only forgive the sins of her soul and allow her to regain the qualification to ascend to heaven, but if her body wanted to be restored to human form, it had to die first."

"The Son of God suffered and was resurrected three days later?"

Yamasaki An, who was also watching all this, reacted.

Aren’t the five wounds Van Helsing just inflicted exactly the same as the five injuries Jesus suffered during the crucifixion!

"Yes, she just drank the blood of Jesus, which gave this imitation real power. However, we don't have three days left now, so we have to use some other method to speed up her resurrection."

As he spoke, Van Helsing took from his bag a feather and a small bag of gravel.

The feathers are crow feathers, and the stone chips are small fragments scraped off the solar calendar stone brought back from America.

"Incarnations of the sun god Ra, divine forms of Tonatiuh (the scorching sun god in Aztec mythology), show your mercy and ignite the solar fire of reincarnation and rebirth for the woman before you."

Van Helsing wrapped the stone chips in feathers, then lit them while chanting a prayer he had made up, and quickly stuffed them into the mouth of Minnie Harker, who looked lifeless.

Using the subtle divine power hidden in the solar calendar stone as energy and the raven feather as a conceptual guide, similar forces triggered the power of the sun god Ra.

Golden flames instantly burned on Minnie Harker's body. Mai Sakurajima was startled and instinctively let go.

But she soon discovered that she was not harmed by the flames.

Not only her, but Minnie Harker too, even her clothes were not damaged at all.

On the contrary, under the flames, the wounds on her body caused by gunshot and sword began to heal one by one, as if a phoenix was reborn from the fire.

This is the fire of Ra's resurrection and the embodiment of his power as the sun god.

When the flames went out, Minnie Hack's chest, which had stopped breathing long ago, began to rise and fall again, and the heart that had stopped beating more than a hundred years ago began to beat again.

Chapter 108 Fierce Battle

Looking at the woman lying on the ground, Van Helsing walked forward and poured some holy water on her. When he found no reaction, he nodded immediately.

Very good, the ceremony was very successful, Minnie Harker has turned back into a human again!

Perhaps to outsiders, this ceremony was much simpler and more hasty than the previous werewolf reversal ceremony, so how could it have the same effect?

But if you think about it carefully, you will understand that compared to the ritual that transformed Wilkan from a werewolf back into a human, the materials used in Minnie Harker's ritual were much more advanced.

There is no need to say much about the holy shroud stained with the blood of Jesus. It is outrageous that Van Helsing can own such a small piece of this holy relic. What is even more outrageous is that he is willing to use it!

As for the fragments of the solar calendar stone at the back, although they were not as valuable as the Holy Shroud in terms of status, they were also not something that anyone could get. Van Helsing just took them out as he said.

It was precisely because of the power of these two holy objects that he was able to use the simplest ritual to achieve the effect of transforming vampires back into humans.

"Look, the zombie tide seems to be in chaos!"

Yamasaki An said, pointing at the tide of the dead in the distance.

Van Helsing and Mai Sakurajima looked up and saw that indeed, the tide of corpses that had originally been rushing towards this side was in hesitation at this moment. After pausing for a few seconds, it split into many waves of corpses again. Although some of them continued to approach this side, the rest went in all directions.

"We still have to move, but without direct contact, we can move much more easily."

Van Helsing said this.

Seeing this, Mai Sakurajima nodded, stepped forward and carried Minnie Harker, who had not yet woken up, and prepared to move together.

Yamasaki An looked at the starting point of the zombie outbreak in the distance, feeling a little worried:

"I wonder how things are going with Yi Jun..."

There, the dazzling thunderstorm and the surging blood tide entangled endlessly for a long time.

……

Turn your attention back to Yi Shen.

Dracula, who used the River of Death, transformed himself from one man into an army.

Although most of them were sent out by him to search for the kidnapped Minnie Harker, there were still more than ten thousand soldiers left by his side, and they were all the most elite armored knights and armed soldiers.

If Yi Shen wants to get to Dracula, he must first break through the heavy lines of defense formed by these soldiers.

To be honest, this is not a simple matter.

At first, Yi Shen just thought that this "River of Death" just had a few more people, and the individual combat power of these zombies was just so-so.

However, after the actual battle started, he discovered that even among these dead people who had been dead for who knows how many years, there were still many strong ones among them.

Some of them were skilled in swordsmanship, some had good coordination, and some even knew how to use magic. After forming a military formation with the ordinary soldiers, they actually managed to block Yi Shen.

Although this obstruction only lasted for a while, under the violent thunder and the almost invulnerable cellular force field, Yi Shen finally broke through the army formation.

But after one group was killed, there was another group, who risked their lives recklessly to delay Yi Shen's actions at the cost of their own lives, which had already died.

Swish-!

The sword blade, wrapped in lightning, flashed across the air, beheading another group of soldiers.

Another sword strike cut the cavalry charging towards him in half, both the man and the horse.

The silver plating on the blade prevented the corpses from regenerating, effectively killing them.

After a series of battles, Yi Shen has discovered that enchanting weapons with elemental power and engaging in close combat is the most effective way to deal with these dead people.

Although pure thunder has a longer attack range, its targeting is too weak, and more energy is required to kill these undead creatures. However, after being equipped with weapons and with the help of enchantments, it can basically break the defense with one blow, and then instantly kill the hit enemy with the characteristics of the weapon itself, and the combat efficiency is actually higher.

However, despite this, facing an army of tens of thousands of dead, this killing speed is still too slow!

Seeing Dracula dispatching another army to him again, Yi Shen felt a little annoyed.

"This distance... should be about right!"

He raised the sword in his hand high, ready to chop with full force.

Relying on the cellular force field around him, he ignored the spears and swords that the surrounding soldiers were stabbing at him. The powerful elemental force gathered on the sword edge, becoming more and more condensed and hotter.

Soon, the sword edge was burned red by the high temperature generated by lightning.

Under such high temperature, the silver coating on the sword edge naturally began to melt, and then continued to shatter in the exploding arc, merging into the plasma formed by the high concentration of lightning.

When Yi Shen slashed the sword heavily, the lightning condensed on it exploded, carrying the silver ions integrated into it, turning into a sword-like lightning strike, and in an instant it penetrated the entire military formation in front!

The lightning that was infused with silver surprisingly also gained the same ability to destroy evil as the silver weapons. All those who were hit by this attack fell to the ground twitching and never stood up again.

With just this one strike, Yi Shen completely killed more than two hundred dead soldiers and opened up a passage.
