Chapter 010

Knowing the true identity of the mysterious figure, the enigma in his heart not only remained unsolved but became even more perplexing.

Nie found it hard to believe that this person was indeed the esteemed Lord Pusatik, who had removed the black veil and no longer adhered to the rules of seclusion! He simply could not understand why Lord Pusatik, along with the other six elders, had established the Camarilla, yet now sought to engage with the Sabbat, who had never abided by the Six Laws.

I understand that I am not your match, not even the Chief Justice is your match, let alone me. However, I must do this. There is a saying among you Easterners: "Knowing there are tigers in the mountains, one still ventures into the tiger's den." I am not sure if my translation is correct. You also value 'righteousness'; for the sake of this righteousness, even though I know I am not your opponent, I must confront you today!" Nie Rang was taken aback: "What did you say? Clarify yourself, what happened to the Chief Justice?!" "You know what you have done!" Nie Rang shouted angrily: "I do not know! You also value 'righteousness'; for the sake of this righteousness, even though I know I am not your opponent, I must confront you today!" Nie Rang was taken aback: "What did you say? Clarify yourself, what happened to the Chief Justice?!" "You know what you have done!" Nie Rang shouted angrily: "I do not know! Why? Why have we turned from comrades into enemies overnight, why have I gone from enforcer to suspect—what on earth is happening in this world, where has it gone wrong, everything has been turned upside down!" Becker remained unmoved: "Let us go to the Chief Justice's underground palace; it is quite suitable down there!"

Two law enforcers rushed forward, while Nie Rang moved with an unusual step, advancing and retreating, dodging left and right, seemingly retreating but actually advancing. Becker's left hand was drenched in blood, and in a short time, the immense energy accumulated from the fourteen criminals he had apprehended was all concentrated in that left hand. Bodhisattva Tike threw a punch, colliding with Becker's left hand, unleashing a tremendous burst of energy. Bodhisattva Tike was also knocked back two steps by this overwhelming force, while Becker was sent flying! Nie Rang arrived just in time, shooting forth a stream of black energy that formed into a short sword, with restless black flames dancing upon it. Nie Rang unleashed thirteen strikes in quick succession, employing ancient Eastern sword techniques that left Bodhisattva Tike struggling to cope. In a moment of carelessness, Nie Rang severed half of Bodhisattva Tike's sleeve with a single strike, and the black flames clung to it, burning fiercely like maggots.

"I won't go!" Nie Rang said stiffly. Becker reached out and grabbed his shoulder, shouting sternly, "Come with me!" The two exerted force together, and with a "rip," Nie Rang's clothing was torn. Becker grasped the fabric that had been ripped from Nie Rang's shoulder, which transformed into a ball of black flame in his hand. Nie Rang snorted coldly, "Congratulations, you can now control the Infernal Black Fire!" Becker's expression was solemn: "In order to enforce the law on you, I executed fourteen criminals in three days!" Nie Rang was astonished: "How could you do this! The surge of energy will overload your body!" Becker shook his head: "The Camarilla is already on the brink of collapse, what else can I do? Consider it my last act for the Camarilla!" Nie Rang snorted coldly, "Congratulations, you can now control the Infernal Black Fire!" Becker's expression was solemn: "In order to enforce the law on you, I executed fourteen criminals in three days!" Nie Rang was astonished: "How could you do this! The surge of energy will overload your body!" Becker shook his head: "The Camarilla is already on the brink of collapse, what else can I do? Consider it my last act for the Camarilla!"

When the sun had just risen, Lord Pusatick returned to his estate. Today, he felt somewhat strange, for every time he returned, his loyal old steward, Thornley, would stand at the door to greet him. Thornley had been with him for several centuries and was very familiar with his scent; every time he came back, Thornley could smell it from a distance.

Bodhisattva Tike chuckled, and the sound was as if a long-repressed demon had been released. "I am the primal predator; how could you, the last generation of predators, be my match?" Nie Rang collapsed beside Becker, whose left hand was gone, with purple blood gushing from the severed wrist. Becker looked at Nie Rang with a complex expression and said, "Execute me!" Qiu Yu was taken aback. "I am the primal predator; how could you, the last generation of predators, be my match?" Nie Rang collapsed beside Becker, whose left hand was gone, with purple blood gushing from the severed wrist. Becker looked at Nie Rang with a complex expression and said, "Execute me!" Qiu Yu was taken aback. Becker spoke slowly with a firm voice: "Execute me; only then will you have a chance to defeat him!" Nie Rang's expression was solemn, and he remained silent. Piati crawled over and said, "He is right! Execute us; only then can you defeat him!" "Do not hesitate any longer!" Becker urged as he looked at the slowly approaching Bodhisattva Tike, "For the sake of the Grand Judge!"

From the creation of Camarilla to today, we no longer need it, but rather must destroy it—everything. When we needed to retreat from the world, I created Camarilla, but now, humanity's faith is no longer pure. The time has come for us to dominate this world. Why should we still bind ourselves with rules that are no longer needed? You are the new generation of vampires, your minds are open, you should understand!" He reached out to Piatti: "Piatti, you should understand the most!" You are the new generation of vampires, your minds are open, you should understand!" He reached out to Piatti: "Piatti, you should understand the most!"

Nie Rang suddenly appeared in front of the pursuing Bodhisattva Tike, causing Bodhisattva Tike to abruptly halt his forward momentum, as if he were unaffected by inertia. A massive black shadow loomed before him, which was a gigantic scythe. The scythe came crashing down fiercely. Nie Rang extended his hand, and black mist coalesced into a fitted glove. He grasped the scythe firmly, squeezing it with force, igniting black flames that engulfed it, rendering the scythe formless in the fire.

Piaty lowered his head, engaged in an internal struggle. The words of Lord Bodhisattva Tike were very tempting, and he was earnestly contemplating what he should do.

Nie Rang suddenly calmed down: "Becker, you must honestly tell me, what exactly happened to the Chief Justice?" "Spinvick is dead, and he and his Death Scythe Guard perished under the 'Blade Wings Pointing' of the Chief Justice. What do you say happened to the Chief Justice?" Nie Rang took a deep breath and suddenly made a shocking statement: "There is a fourth enforcer in this world!" Becker squinted his eyes, and Nie Rang continued: "It is neither me nor you! Piati is under my restraint, and he does not possess such great power—there is another predator in this world!" Becker scoffed, saying: "Don't you think your defense is too weak?" "He is not wrong; there is indeed another predator in this world besides us!" Piati slowly walked over.

"Sornli! Sornli!" Lord Pasatick called out loudly twice. Could it be that this old fellow has had too much to drink? Sornli did not come out, and after a moment of footsteps, Piatti slowly sauntered out from inside. Lord Pasatick frowned slightly, somewhat displeased: "Piatti, are you able to move now?" Piatti grinned: "Yes, my lord!" Lord Pasatick, still frowning, said: "Can't you be a bit more low-key? Just look at your attire; no wonder others oppose you. You look like a street thug. Where is the elegance and propriety of the bloodline?" Piatti looked down at his brightly colored striped shirt and old, tattered jeans, chuckling. Lord Pasatick asked him: "Where is Sornli?" He chuckled again. Lord Pasatick asked him: "Where is Sornli?"

Bodhisattva Tike let out a light laugh: "A white bat, quite rare!" Becker dashed forward like lightning, but Bodhisattva Tike was no longer there. Becker missed his target, yet with his rich combat experience, he did not need to turn around; two enormous bat wings had already swept back. Bodhisattva Tike struck just in time, and the immense force collided violently with Becker's bat wings. His wings could not withstand such tremendous power. Bodhisattva Tike changed his hand position, his five fingers like swords, and with a "whoosh," he sliced through the white bat wings. Becker let out a cry of agony as the sharp fingers pierced through his wings, leaving five bloody marks on his back.

Sornli?" Piati gave a strange smile, extending his tongue to lick his lips: "He tastes quite good!" Bosatike's expression darkened: "Piati, what do you mean by this?" "You should understand what I mean— we are all carnivores, how could you not know?" The Bosatike who stood in place vanished, as if he had never been there, and instead appeared beside Piati: "What did you say!" Bosatike glared at him with wide eyes, staring fiercely!

Nie Rang charged forward, throwing a punch. Bodhisattva Tike did not evade at all. Just as Nie Rang's fist was about to strike his body, Tike kicked out with his lower body, countering with a powerful blow to Nie Rang's chest, sending him flying. Tike pursued him, but Piati suddenly appeared in front of him, grinning: "From the day I became a predator, it was destined that I could not cooperate with you! The code of conduct of the enforcer leaves me no choice!" Bodhisattva Tike snorted in anger: "You are asking for trouble!" Before Piati could extend his hand, Tike had already seized his throat, lifting him high into the air. Piati felt that he had not even begun to exert his strength before being subdued by Bodhisattva Tike.

Nie Reng returned with a heavy heart. As soon as he got off the plane, Becker was waiting for him at the airport. After they met, Becker, like an old friend, reminisced: "We have been working together for one hundred seventy-five years, haven't we?" Nie Reng was somewhat surprised by the sudden change in Becker's attitude upon his return: "Yes, you remember very well." Becker continued, "I have been a carnivore for almost two hundred years. During these two hundred years, I have experienced and documented six partners, and you are the most outstanding one! You are powerful, shorter in time as a carnivore than I am, yet you are the strongest. You perform your tasks exceptionally well, with almost nothing you cannot accomplish. When you are around, we all feel at ease!" Nie Reng gradually sensed that something was amiss.

"I don't care about what you said, did you kill the Chief Justice?" A ripple in the air beside a sofa indicated the appearance of Becker on the couch. "She has fallen behind the times and will become a hindrance to the entire bloodline!" Bodhisattva Tike said calmly. Becker was furious; he quickly transformed, his black skin contrasted by a pair of white wings! His jagged fangs resembled sharp knives! Becker was furious; he quickly transformed, his black skin contrasted by a pair of white wings! His jagged fangs resembled sharp knives

Bodhisattva Tike was filled with rage; he reached out and pressed down on his burning sleeve. Behind him, his clothes tore apart, revealing two pairs of enormous bat wings. He removed his hand, and the so-called indelible hellfire was forcibly extinguished by him. Nie Rang's heart sank; the two pairs of bat wings were on a completely different level of energy. After transforming, Bodhisattva Tike's power surged, and in the blink of an eye, he had sent Nie Rang flying. Piati flapped his wings and rushed over, his teeth still stained with the blood of Suonli, whom he had just executed. Nie Rang's heart sank again; the two pairs of bat wings were on a completely different level of energy. After transforming, Bodhisattva Tike's power surged, and in the blink of an eye, he had sent Nie Rang flying. Piati flapped his wings and rushed over, his teeth still stained with the blood of Suonli, whom he had just executed. Bodhisattva Tike did not regard him at all, casually unleashing a wave of energy, and Piati was knocked down.

A voice sounded behind him: "Remove your veil, Bodhisattva Tike, you no longer adhere to the rules of seclusion. To wear it now is an insult to the Six Precepts!" Bodhisattva Tike turned around slowly, and Nie Rang stood behind him. "I have already seen your true face at the entrance of the Lesenba clan, my lord!" Bodhisattva Tike slowly stepped back, then suddenly smiled, the veil on his face transforming into strands that fell away: "You do not understand, everything I do is for the entire bloodline, I have no regrets!"
