Chapter 5 - The Bloodstorm Cometh

Author's Note: The scene of the wolf fight is needed to explain just how cold Patricia gets when she's in the 'Platinum_Blood' character.

----------------------------------------

Patricia glares at her Pod.  "Alright, access Alpha Gamma Sigma Trilogy Delta Beta Omega."

A chime and a computerized voice answers, "Access granted.  Awaiting commands."

"Back-up current character.  Set it as Family-001.  Empty current character.  Load Character file BloodSupreme.  Raise Nanobot production to 200%."

"Character: Pattibomb Backed up to file Famiy-001.  Current Character slot erased.  Character: Platinum_Blood restored to Character Slot.  Nanobot count raising to 200%."

"Unlock GM Toolkit, merge with Character: Platinum_Blood."

"Command requires Authorization."

"Authorization Gamma Epsilon Alpha Foxtrot November," Patricia sighs.

"Authorization accepted.  Platinum_Blood has been registered as a Game Master with VR Technics.  Please hold for confirmation from VR Technics.  Confirmation received.  Platinum_Blood is officially a Game Master, with full CS and GM Rights."

Patricia sighs and opens her pod, sliding in and pulling it closed.

System NotificationGame Master ActivationWelcome back to Elindra, Game Master Platinum_Blood

Please select your returning Location:Linsol Cogni (Elindra Continent Capital)Aurisila (Plains Village near new Unidentified Location)

Platinum immediately selected the plains village of Aurisila.  She would only be staying in the village a few moments before marching off to this new unknown forest.  Unknown to many, the Blood Lord was a Hidden Class that required the player to first become a Vampire and then completely drain the Vampire Patriarch in the Dark Forest, and reset your character's level completely upon draining the Patriarch.  Then you could only gain a level for each enemy completely drained of blood, but if you started drinking from a target, they would become your pet if you stopped before fifty percent, and your complete thrall if you stopped between fifty-one and seventy-five percent drained.  After seventy-five percent, if you didn't finish draining them, you could get one of their abilities, they would still die from blood loss but you wouldn't get the Level.

The ability is banned from being used on players, because the Pet/Thrall status lasts until respawn, and if used five times in a row, then the status became permanent until deleted by a member of the support staff.  Oh, you're probably wondering what the different between pets and thralls are, don't you?  pets are summonable and have some small amount of self and personal control.  If they have enough willpower, then they could break free from the Pet status and flee or attack the owner.  A Thrall, however, has their will wiped and replaced by the desire to do nothing more than please their owner.

Platinum opens her eyes and looks around before smirking and heading onto the plains towards the forest.  "I'm coming for you, Lisandra darling."

----------------------------------------

Lisandra smirks coldly.  You've fucked up with how you have handled me, she writes.  A Developer is currently watching.

Stolen from Royal Road, this story should be reported if encountered on Amazon.

Alana growls and drags her further into the woods.

System NotificationSystem Support StaffPlatinum_Blood has been unleashed.

The Blood Lord is coming for you.

So, Patricia is really angry, isn't she?  My wife is coming.  She is very angry.

"So what?  She's nothing compared to our Oracle," Alana spits.

Loran catches up as she says that.  "What's going on?"

"Apparently our slave here has a Developer who sent her wife after her.  She claims that her wife is angry," Alana states as if she couldn't care less.

"You will hand my slave over.  I have decided that she is officially the property of the Crown, not the Church, since it was the Crown's coin and the Crown's bid." Loran reaches out for the leather strap that Alana has been using to drag Lisandra by.

Alana snarls.  "I don't think so.  The Crown has lost all its power amongst our people.  You dare think you have the right to rule after our Goddess had to save us all?"

"The Crown has the right to Rule.  I am the Crown.  The Church needs to step back, as the Church has improperly handled this, especially with sending someone like you, a member of the Seluna's Lunatics..." Loran growls back at Alana.

Lisandra grabs onto Alana as she lunges towards the prince, using her arm as a pivot, she slams Alana facedown into the ground at his feet.  "Thank you, Lisandra.  Jelliba, keep your sister in hand."  Jelliba helps Alana up and starts whispering with her, to keep her from attacking the two who are ahead of them on the path.

Loran guides the party deep into the woods, where there is a sudden clearing with a single giant stone cathedral and many small wooden houses.  Due to the power of Seluna, the monsters in the woods do not attack the party on their way in.

----------------------------------------

Platinum arrives at the forest just as they reach the large clearing in the center.  The moment Platinum enters, she draws her sword to be ready to attack as soon as she was attacked.

When she's about ten feet inside the forest, there's a long howl, which reverberates through the forest which makes her smile and draw her second sword.

----------------------------------------

Lisandra smiles and writes.  The Bloodstorm comes.

"What is the Bloodstorm?" Loran asks.

The Great Lord of Blood, Platinum_Blood. Lisandra's smile becomes quite cold.  The Game Master character that belongs to my wife.  Developers use her to wipe an area if things go out of control.  Lisandra changes the color from its normal color to that of blood.  I hope your people are willing to surrender, or they will all die...  Although I won't mourn Alana's death, you are an alright person.

"Can you have them call her off?"

Nope.  Once unleashed, the only one who can stop her is my Paladin, but there's no chance that that will happen this time...

----------------------------------------

Platinum's smile keeps growing as she is charged by a wolf.

Spoiler :

Moonlight HowlerLunar WolfLevel250Health75,000/75,000Magicka100/100Stamina7,500/7,500One of the powerful, lone wolves that can summon lesser lunar wolves to aid it in battle should it feel threatened.

Without seeming to waste any movement, she slides slightly to the side, while raising her blade so it slices down the belly of the  wolf, inflicting powerful critical after critical as it is locked into its jumping trajectory.  When it lands, it cries out in pain as its guts spill down onto the ground, making it trip over its own intestines.  She thrusts her sword through its eye and deep into its brain to kill it before it can summon others of its kind.

With her gear, and her personal stats, Platinum_Blood is the equivalent of a level 600 Boss character, which is why they use her to basically wipe areas about to have their lore edited for expansion reasons.  She keeps going along the way, ignoring the creatures that are too scared to fight her after her quick kill of the Moonlight Howler.
