#333 - Trapped siblings
Regarding the genes of Daywalkers, Lin Mei had a concept in his mind.
Unfortunately, his tech tree was more focused on magic and technology.
If he wanted to further research, he would have to work hard to learn about genetics and other knowledge.
... Lin Mei remembered that Gwen would also intern at Harry Osborn's company in the future, and it seemed like unlocking another skill tree wasn't impossible.
The only trouble was getting another degree. Compared to Dr. Banner, the difference was too great.
Just as Lin Mei's thoughts returned, the alien vampire in front of him couldn't withstand the invasion of a large amount of light energy and was instantly burned to ashes.
On the other side, Quicksilver was carrying his sister, constantly shuttling through the streets.
Behind him, a mass of darkness was moving extremely fast, following closely behind him.
“Sh*t! Why is this guy so difficult to deal with! I've shaken him off several times, but why can he always find us accurately?” Quicksilver frantically complained about the vampire behind him.
Wanda, while urging the chaos magic to act on Quicksilver, couldn't help but roll her eyes after hearing his words.
A few minutes ago, the vampire's sneak attack failed, and Quicksilver had the idea of counterattacking.
As a result, that vampire was like a hedgehog. After discovering that his speed was indeed inferior to Quicksilver's, he used a super-range dark magic.
It must be said that Quicksilver was able to rely on his high-speed movement to almost run out of the range of the magic.
Contrary to expectations, Quicksilver didn't know what he stepped on, and he fell flat on his face, and was hit by the vampire's magic, with blood flowing from his arm.
“I've caught you!”
The vampire's voice suddenly sounded. At some point, Quicksilver had taken his sister into an unusually dark street.
“Damn it, we're trapped. This street has been completely covered by dark power, we can't get out.” Wanda said anxiously.
Quicksilver's face changed, and he turned his head to say that he wanted to run back the same way.
When he saw a figure appearing behind him, he sadly said in his heart: “It's over!”
The vampire guarding the only entrance let out a grin.
In the next instant, Quicksilver's entire body straightened and he frantically ran away.
The moment he left the spot, the ground was instantly covered with barbs with inverted thorns.
If Quicksilver had been even a moment late, his feet would have been pierced through immediately, and he wouldn't have been able to pull them out!
“What a slippery loach, but you can't escape here!” The vampire grinned.
With a wave of his hand, the darkness covering the entire street was constantly shrinking its coverage.
Before long, the space Quicksilver could move in became smaller and smaller!
“Pietro! Put me down!” Wanda knew the situation was urgent, so she wanted to take action to break this dark space.
“No! Haven't you seen those things behind us are about to catch up?” Quicksilver's tone was filled with undeniable anxiety. He held Wanda tightly, maneuvering flexibly in the narrow space, trying to find a gap to escape.
However, as the darkness continued to approach, their retreat seemed to be cut off little by little by an invisible hand.
“But if this goes on, we'll all be trapped here to death!” Wanda insisted, her eyes flashing with determination, chaos magic dancing at her fingertips, ready to erupt at any time.
“I know, but I can't let you take the risk.” Quicksilver's tone revealed helplessness. He knew that although Wanda's power was strong, in this area completely shrouded in darkness, her magic might be greatly limited.
Wanda had no choice. She used chaos magic to suddenly lift herself and her brother up.
Wanda's expression was serious, and several scarlet orbs of magic condensed in her hands, attacking the vampire.
The vampire stood in place, grabbing the darkness on the ground with his hand, lifting it up to create a black barrier, blocking all of Wanda's attacks.
Seeing this, Wanda's expression became somewhat desperate: “In this environment, that vampire's dark magic can be said to be endless, how can we fight this?”
Just as Wanda was feeling desperate, a hint of determination flashed in Quicksilver's eyes. He knew that if this continued, both he and his sister would be doomed. So, he made a bold decision, using his speed to buy Wanda a chance of survival.
“Sis, get ready, I'm going to create an opportunity for you!” Quicksilver's voice echoed in the narrow space, full of undeniable determination.
Hearing this, a complex emotion flashed in Wanda's eyes, but she knew that this was their only hope. She quickly adjusted her state, and the chaos magic in her body surged again, ready to meet the coming counterattack.
Quicksilver took a deep breath, his body seeming to turn into a silver lightning bolt, and he rushed towards the vampire. His speed was so fast that it almost created sparks with the air. The vampire obviously didn't expect Quicksilver to be so desperate, and he was caught off guard for a moment.
“Want to die? Then I'll help you!” The vampire snorted coldly, waving his hands, and dark magic surged towards Quicksilver like a tide.
However, Quicksilver seemed to ignore this powerful force. His body twisted and folded in the air, dodging the vampire's attack at an incredible angle.
At the same time, he used his speed advantage to create afterimages around the vampire, making it difficult for the vampire to judge his true position.
Just as the vampire was dizzy from Quicksilver's offensive, Wanda seized the opportunity. With a wave of her hands, several scarlet orbs of magic pierced through the darkness like shooting stars, heading straight for the vampire.
This time, the vampire no longer had enough time to summon the dark barrier. The orbs of magic drew a dazzling trajectory in the air, and finally slammed into his body.
A violent explosion swept across the vampire's body.
When the smoke cleared, the vampire's body was tattered, and some places faintly oozed some blood.
However, as long as the vampire had enough blood, he could immediately recover from his injuries.
Therefore, the wounds on his body, which had absorbed an unknown amount of blood before, were recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The vampire looked down at his body, and then he roared: “Do you know how expensive this custom-made suit is! You two little bastards, I'm going to tear you to pieces!”
Before the vampire could finish speaking, Wanda and Quicksilver stood back to back, vigilantly looking around, preparing to meet the vampire's next attack.
