Chen Fan felt furious!
If it were an ordinary person, he might not react this way, but facing a vampire, he truly couldn't hold back!
Since the beginning in the Marvel Universe, this race had been persistently provoking him. Even when he escaped to another world, they still wouldn't leave him alone. Yet here he was in a different realm, and damn it, there were still vampires around.
—It seemed like he could encounter them anywhere!
……
A suffocating aura enveloped the area.
Everyone's expressions changed as their gazes turned toward the young figure.
At that moment, the boy was surrounded by golden lightning, crackling electricity spreading from beneath his feet, turning the ground into a charred black.
The wind blew through, carrying a tingling sensation; this was the Thunder Element mingling with the air, bringing about an anomaly.
"Ah? I actually misjudged!" Elsa's face showed shock as she tightened her grip on her weapon, her crimson eyes sharpening with focus.
Just a moment ago, he was an ordinary child, and now he had transformed into—
—a terrifying monster.
She couldn't find any other words to describe him.
Clash! Clash! The sound of swords clashing echoed in the silent space, snapping everyone back to reality.
Reinhardt took a slight step back, one hand pressing against his sword sheath. The Dragon Sword trembled; this was a state that only occurred when he encountered a worthy opponent.
He looked at Chen Fan, his expression growing serious.
At the most critical moment for the kingdom, a powerful figure from another nation arrived, and this was not a good sign.
"Changing opponents?" Elsa licked her lips, revealing a bloodthirsty demeanor. With a stamp of her foot, she lunged at Chen Fan, leaving behind a shadow. However, just as she made her move, a bolt of golden lightning pierced through her body.
It happened so quickly that no one noticed when Chen Fan launched the attack.
...
"Ah? Why am I still alive?" The bloodlust in Elsa's eyes had vanished. Despite being attacked, she was still alive; aside from feeling utterly drained, she seemed to be in remarkably good condition.
"Do you know Cain?" The boy in the spotlight lifted his head, his dark purple eyes shimmering. That lightning was merely a seal; Chen Fan had referenced Elf Parker's state and used the Lightning of Life to mimic the attack.
His purpose had never changed from the beginning.
To gather information about this world and to find out the reason behind Cain's cross-dimensional travel.
Not knowing whether there was a second vampire around, he didn't want to let the current one die.
That was his reason for intervening.
"Cain? I don't know!" Elsa blinked, showing no concern for her life being in someone else's hands. She shook her head and murmured, "But... it sounds somewhat familiar; I must have heard it somewhere before."
Chen Fan squinted, resting his chin in thought for a moment before looking at the knight beside him. "This guy should be worth a few coins, right?"
Bounties could be exchanged for money; this was universal across all worlds, and there was no reason this world would lack such a custom!
"The bounty on the Hunter is thirteen hundred Holy Gold Coins!" Reinhardt said with a wry smile, speaking up first. Was it for the bounty? But he felt that the other party wasn't acting with that intention.
Cain? A name worth noting.
“Chen Fan, what was that attack you just used?” Elf Parker flew over and hovered in front of Elsa, scrutinizing her. It felt strangely familiar with the seal within her.
“It’s the seal inside you,” Chen Fan replied without any hesitation, explaining in the terms of this world, “You can think of it as a kind of Blessing that allows me to instantly learn any knowledge!”
Peter Parker’s eyes widened, and Reinhardt’s expression subtly shifted.
—This Blessing is very similar to his own!
“Are you also a favored child of the world?” Peter Parker asked. Instantly learning any knowledge? You cheat code!
Hearing the mention of favored children, Reinhardt cleared his throat twice.
“Let’s deal with those two first!” Chen Fan rubbed his cheeks, feeling a bit fatigued.
Since arriving in this world, he had already spent over ten hours here, and coupled with the aftereffects, he was feeling quite tired now!
Everyone's gaze turned to the strange combination huddled together in the corner.
The Old Giant and the girl.
With Chen Fan’s words, everyone returned to their original purpose.
The badge!
At this moment, beside this odd pair, a Silver-Haired Girl was squatting down. She placed her hands in front of them as a shimmering magic circle poured forth with delicate light.
She was healing the two injured individuals.
A gentle breeze stirred, lifting the girl’s silvery long hair and revealing her exquisite face. There was no anger on it, only concern. The beads of sweat trickling down her forehead revealed her inner unease.
"Ah... such a healing scene!" Not far away, Lai Yueang sighed in delight, and beside him, Tang wore a similar expression. The two boys, close in age, exchanged a glance, their eyes sparkling with sharp intensity.
Chen Fan twitched his lips, watching with a smirk as he yawned and said, "Your daughter is really kind!"
Seemingly catching the deeper meaning in Chen Fan's words, Peter Parker turned his head slightly, adopting a fatherly expression as he sighed, "It's precisely because of that that I can't help but worry about Leah."
Once the treatment was over, the first to awaken was Old Giant. He looked warily at the people around him and relaxed only when his gaze fell on Reinhardt. "What about that woman?" he asked.
"She has been subdued!" Emilia replied, pouting in dissatisfaction. "Can you return the things you took from me? Consider it a reward for saving you!"
"That badge is very important to me!"
Was there anything more frustrating than having the seller assassinated and then having the owner show up with a crowd to surround him?
Old Giant sighed, his massive hand gently stroking the girl in his arms as he softly called out, "Filut... wake up...!"
"Are you okay, Grandpa Rom?" The girl Yohou woke up and looked over Old Giant. Noticing nothing unusual, her tense emotions finally eased. However, when her gaze landed on a beautiful face nearby, her pupils constricted. "You..."
"Return the badge to them!" Old Giant commanded firmly.
"Fine," the girl mumbled as she fished out a badge from her pocket and opened her palm. "Here it is back to you now, but don’t cause me any trouble again!"
Such willful words made Chen Fan want to retort; if this were the Marvel Universe, she would have been sent to the police station. Unfortunately, there was no such department here.
—This other world is so chaotic.
At that moment, before Emilia could respond, Reinhardt hurried over and carefully examined the badge resting in the girl's palm. Upon seeing the gem radiating a shimmering light, he swiftly grabbed the girl.
"Lady Emilia, please hold onto the badge properly. We wouldn't want it to get lost again; after all, the sage may not be very friendly towards you!"
Ignoring the girl struggling in his grasp, Reinhardt placed the badge back into Emilia's hand and gave a slight bow, smiling as he said, "I still have important matters to discuss with this girl and the giant!"
"I cannot escort you all back to the town."
Overawed by Reinhardt's imposing presence, both the giant and the girl found themselves unable to move, their eyes pleading for help from Emilia.
"Leah, now that the badge has been recovered, let's leave the rest to Reinhardt!" Elf Parker whispered gently as he settled onto the girl's shoulder.
With Reinhardt radiating such authority, it was clear he intended to take both of them with him, seemingly unafraid of a confrontation.
Emilia blinked, unable to comprehend the scene unfolding before her.
"I swear on the honor of the Sword Saint Family that I will not allow any harm to come to these two!" Reinhardt declared solemnly before hastily leading the girl away.
The Old Giant followed closely behind; facing the Sword Saint, he was not foolish enough to act irrationally.
After all, Reinhardt had guaranteed the safety of both himself and Filut.
He trusted the Sword Saint's assurance.
As the group departed, Chen Fan narrowed his eyes, his gaze settling on the vampire.
