The attack seems to have worked and inflicted fatal wounds on Karina.

But is this really the case?

Shirley was still watching Karina with caution.

The Beheading Rack dissipated slowly into the air, and Karina, with no support, lowered her limbs and remained suspended in the air.

She was not dead.

This is certain, as there are no injuries on the opponent's neck, and Shirley would not naively think that such an attack could cause fatal injuries to Karina.

Moreover, the real battle is about to begin.

After adjusting her breathing, Shirley began to deploy several complex barriers around her body.

Her long-term combat experience taught her that attacking at this moment is the wrong move.

Now, Karina is like a barrel of dynamite, the kind that explodes instantly when touched.

Instead of taking the initiative to detonate this explosive barrel, it is better to prepare for defense now to withstand the indiscriminate bombardment from the opponent.

Even if she uses her strongest attack skills now, it is impossible to kill Karina instantly; therefore, she must find a way to inflict some damage on Karina.

Thinking about this, Shirley could not help but smile wryly.

Thinking about what happened next was truly a headache...

A black storm roared with Karina at its center, and black streaks like flames enveloped her body, gradually making her lose her human appearance.

Black hair grew all over her body, enormous black claws replaced the palms of her hands, and her mouth began to protrude...

After the black flames enveloped her body and vanished, Karina’s body transformed into a black wolf!

Her eyes turned dark green again, and Karina looked in Shirley’s direction.

“Shirley.” Now, her voice was not as insane as before but more rational, “Come on, let’s see what you can do this time!”

Karina's voice coming from the wolf’s mouth seemed to have a heavy echo of its own, constantly resonating in Shirley’s ears.

What a disgusting feeling...

Fighting with a friend and being watched by the opponent’s eyes, she also had the experience of failing so many times before...

No matter how you think about it, the only word left is “hatred.”

This content has been misappropriated from Royal Road; report any instances of this story if found elsewhere.

If she really wants to confront Karina, Shirley has more options.

The vampire family, as old as the “Night Wolves,” naturally has some taboo methods.

It happens that the consequences of using these taboo methods are unpredictable even for her.

Perhaps she might actually kill Karina, or maybe both will die, or even after using all methods, she might still not be a match for Karina.

Fortunately, her goal was not to kill but to continuously deplete Karina’s physical strength through combat, and when the opponent was exhausted, she would find a way to remove the curse from the opponent’s body.

Unfortunately, she has never done this so far and has always focused on defeating Karina.

——Defeat the current “Mad King” Karina.

“This time I’ll use many tricks I’ve never used before!”

Shirley said this as if trying to motivate herself.

It seemed like she was trying to be mysterious, but she was speaking the truth.

With the increase in blood this time, she could indeed use some abilities that she could not originally use.

“Hahahahahaha—”

With joy and mad laughter, Karina’s figure spun in a black whirlpool and rushed towards Shirley.

Compared to before, her speed is not as fast or unpredictable.

But at such a “slow” speed, she easily broke through the ninety-nine layers of barriers that Shirley had just established.

And Shirley’s body seemed frozen in place, being carried away by the wind before she could even move.

“Is that the substitute trick again?”

After throwing Shirley’s body into pieces, Karina showed no enthusiasm.

She simply hovered in the air and scanned the surroundings with her green eyes.

“I remember that even if you can appear anywhere in the blood, you still have a true body, right?”

At the same time, Karina ruthlessly revealed Shirley’s Achilles' heel.

Regardless of the body, spiritual equipment, or rapier, Shirley can be transformed into blood at will.

Even if she creates infinite blood clones, it will not be difficult for her.

However, as Karina said, the main body, spiritual equipment, and rapier are the only real existences.

They can only copy the surface, not the essence.

The current White Horse City was almost destroyed and turned into ruins after the battle.

Except for the few people saved by Luna, all other lives were added to the sea of blood by Shirley.

Just like a real ocean, the sea of blood is constantly rising with no trace of anyone.

It is truly impossible to find Shirley, who has merged into the sea of blood under these circumstances.

“I found her!”

But the reality was astonishing.

After just two sweeps, Karina locked onto a position and made a triumphant sound.

She casually waved her right paw in the air, and the enormous shockwave directly created a large hole in the sea of blood, which took a long time to heal, revealing Shirley’s body in the center of the hole.

“Damn—”

Like a child caught playing hide-and-seek, Shirley had a dissatisfied expression on her face.

Originally, she wanted to delay a bit to strengthen her control over the blood, but she didn’t expect to be discovered so soon.

From now on, Shirley had used this method to hide her true body, but now it seemed this trick could no longer be used.

He should really be called the “Mad King of the Night”...

With this strength, Karina destroyed everyone who could claim to be kings in the Night Wolf Clan and earned the title of King of the Night.

However, everyone is even more accustomed to adding the word “mad” before the title.

After all, after killing all the strong men in the clan, the entire clan fell into a period of extreme weakness.

Even though the relationship among most alien races is relatively harmonious, it is not free from contradictions.

In this dangerous period, Karina relied only on her own intimidation to prevent other aliens from taking any rash actions.

With such tyrannical power, it is not surprising that she can accomplish all this.

Faced with Karina like this, Shirley chose to attack preventively.

She reached behind her, grabbed the “Rapier of the Starry Night,” pulled it forward, and pointed the tip of the rapier at Karina.

Weapons made with the purest and most tainted blood in the world have the ability to break “restrictions.”

Although they are not used for cutting, they are not merely for display.

When she held this sword in her hands, the real battle had just begun.
