Newborn vampires are impulsive.
They still can't fully control their own power, especially after they have just transformed from living to dead, they must face the choice of hunting and killing humans to survive. Many newborn vampires entered a period of madness during this period, and then were forced to be imprisoned in a coffin for a long time. This process is called "hiding", and there are usually other older vampires to guard them. These older vampires will be cultivated for a period of time, maybe several years or more than ten years, and only after the newborns gradually stabilize and control their emotions, will they be released for activities.
It's a tough process.
Vampires seem to be powerful, but the growth cycle is too slow, and it takes them hundreds of years to upgrade to the fourth level. The newborn in front of me is actually only Tier 3. It looks powerful because vampires have a higher biological level. They have innate attribute bonuses. Their agility and strength are much higher than ordinary people, and they also have spell-like abilities. The one in front of Sauron is a defector, that is, he defected just after becoming a vampire, so he lacks the experience of vampire survival.
If this kind of defector is caught, he will either be imprisoned and punished for a period of time, or he will be executed directly!
Because defectors are uneducated guys, it is easy to expose the traces of vampires, and the uncontrollable thirst for blood will attract powerful enemies, which is a disaster for vampires.
The woman in front of her must show her fangs, and she has long since lost her initial sense of beauty. She looked at Sauron in front of her and said, "Help me? How can you help me? Can a mere human help me?"
Sauron smiled inexplicably, and said slowly: "It seems that you overestimate the ability of vampires!"
"I'm standing here without moving. As long as you can force me to take a step back between three attacks, then you've won? How?"
Very arrogant tone.
But Sauron now had to increase the psychological pressure on the target. For this kind of newborn who had brute force but not much skill, what he just said was not an exaggeration.
The current Sauron is no longer the Sauron of the past, he has the ability to counterattack against the legend.
"good!"
The newborn vampire showed a ferocious face, and launched an attack without hesitation, jumped onto the wall, crawled directly on the wall, and then rushed towards Sauron. Like an eagle preying on food, its sharp claws slashed directly at Sauron's throat, seemingly intending to kill him with one move. However, Sauron didn't change his expression at all. He even closed his eyes, and just spread his palms slightly. Then, the moment the opponent rushed down to pounce, he leaned back ninety degrees to avoid the opponent's attack by a slight difference. At the same time, a cold light appeared in his hand, and with a plop, the newborn vampire fell behind him.
Sauron's hands were still empty.
The newborn vampire looked at her abdomen in disbelief, a half-foot-long wound emerged, with strands of frost on it, and she was almost disembowelled. If Sauron hadn't been merciful, this knife could have pierced her abdomen, and even a vampire's physique would have cut off half of her body. Although this kind of injury couldn't kill the vampire, it was enough to fill her with awe. She bent down slightly and pressed the wound with her fingers.
Sauron's expression was quite cold and arrogant, and he said lightly: "Do you want to try again?"
The newborn vampire shook his head and said, "No need, sir. I already believe in your strength, but I don't know why you want to help me, what do you need me to do for you?"
Sauron feels that his acting ability is much stronger. It may be because he has more contacts with women. He used to meet with men, and his acting skills have not improved much. Now his acting skills have at least increased by more than ten points. Sure enough, dealing with women requires acting skills, and the basic skill of acting is often surprisingly useful.
He moved his wrist slightly, and said slowly: "I just happened to meet you. I need something useful, and the elder who happened to hunt you has it, so I plan to help you get rid of him. As for what you can do for me?" , we can wait until your troubles are resolved."
"May I have your name?"
The newborn vampire hesitated for a moment, then said softly, "Arianna."
A bit of a mouthful name.
Sauron repeated it, and then said: "Very good, Ariana. Tell me about you. I need to judge the strength of the elder who captured you. After all, it is not good to be able to turn you into a vampire." deal with."
Ariana was a little hesitant, but a hint of hatred appeared on her face, and she said slowly: "The one who turned me into a vampire is my older sister, the cousin of my family, and my hometown is in Sorad. The town is a down-and-out aristocratic family. My mother died of illness very early, and my father has been trying to restore the glory of the family. Unfortunately, he never came back after going out on an adventure. My cousin married a traveling noble twelve years ago, and followed He left. We were all happy that she came back to her hometown this year, but we didn't expect her to come back like this."
"She killed the others and then turned me into a vampire to serve as her master's servant."
"I escaped and escaped to Shipwreck Bay here."
What a bloody story.
Although the woman in front of him didn't explain it in detail, Sauron guessed the process. The cousin who became a vampire went on a killing spree, as if killing other family members, and then kept her, who was quite beautiful, to transform Become a new vampire minion. Creatures like vampires are members of the standard appearance association. They are not handsome enough or pretty enough to be transformed, and most of the female vampires are above average in appearance.
"very good."
Sauron nodded slightly and said: "It seems that it should be your cousin who came to arrest you, and of course it is more likely to be her master."
"But it doesn't matter, I will help you kill them. You will be free from now on."
He stood up and walked around, then said: "You'd better take a break, this kind of injury shouldn't be a problem, right? After all, vampires have strong regenerative ability. I suggest you learn how to hunt prey, such inferior prey It’s too easy to cause trouble.”
Vampires are strong creature templates.
Their natural protection ability is +6, and their basic life is 12, which is equivalent to that of barbarians.
At the same time, with the improvement of strength, vampires will gain various spell-like abilities, various resistance and saving abilities, various negative energy erosion abilities, and gain strength +6, agility +4, intelligence +2, constitution + 6. The attribute bonuses of Perception +2 and Charm +4 are almost comparable to the additional abilities of Dragon Vein Warlock. They have a +10 racial bonus on basic skills such as Bluff, Hide, Listen, Stealth, Search, and Spot.
The base creature level of a vampire is 8, which is a creature that is naturally close to the third rank.
This dark creature actually doesn't have too many weaknesses, many things in folklore are simply false, they have shadows and are not afraid of mirrors, garlic is just a smell that makes them hate, the only thing they are afraid of is sunlight, which will reduce them on a large scale Its strength, it is even possible to kill weak vampires. The Achilles' heel is the heart and the head. High-level vampires can transform into bats and gaseous forms, which are very difficult to kill.
Others are similar to undead creatures, and Sauron has killed many of them before!
There is a very important part of vampires, and that is their spine, which is a special material for casting spells and a key prop for evil to purify blood.
The bloodline purification ritual is the transformation of life in a supernatural form, and there are many special spell-casting materials in it.
They can improve the effect of blood purification rituals, but they will not change their racial origin. There are many core materials for evil, and there are roughly a dozen sources, such as vampires, werewolves, liches, demons, devils, and dragons. etc. The simplest blood purification ceremony is directly blessed by the gods, so Sauron is naturally not so naive as to think that there are gods willing to bless him. The second one that is more convenient is dragon blood, but it must be a purebred dragon, and the minimum standard is a white dragon.
In the story, there are many professionals who bathe in dragon blood and become stronger. This is actually a blood purification ceremony.
They are still human.
However, these people have unconsciously completed the blood purification ceremony, and gained the bonus of dragon blood in terms of vitality. This ritual is as if they could have grown to such vitality, but due to acquired defects, such as insufficient nutrition in childhood, lack of exercise, or other defects, they did not reach the vitality of the peak state. This ritual is to allow you to reach the effect of vitality close to the current peak state, and it may even improve your attributes that did not grow well due to other reasons in your childhood. (Extremely low chance!)
This is the purpose of Sauron, he needs to stimulate the potential of life force through rituals. He is not sure about slaying dragons now, and he has no time to find dragons. Vampires can be a good substitute, and using high-level vampires as materials to purify bloodlines will give him an additional [Strength] specialty, which can be improved at least after completing the bloodline purification ceremony. His hit points of two or three career levels.
In other words, his vitality will be equivalent to that of a warrior of the same level without purified blood!
The night passed quickly.
Sauron left the hotel the next day and began to prepare props to deal with vampires. Holy water was the best thing to use, followed by other items to restrain dark creatures. From Ariana's mouth, Sauron learned a lot of information, and judged that the one who transformed her was a small vampire family. They used the natural control ability after transformation to enslave their servants. From this point of view, Aryanna's will attribute is good, and she actually resisted the mind control of the vampire elders.
Now just wait for the elder who is looking for her to appear, and then lead him to a suitable place to kill him.
