Vampire System- The Last Mystic Swordsman
Chapter 154 The Attack [1]

Gaud's attack plan was very simple and effective, just the style he loved.

The same way that Rex, Aragorn, and the others researched his personality through Max and Stark to better implement plans to counter every move that he made, so also did he research extensively about his enemies.

Rex's time in the Gundam Shelter was short which meant that not a lot was known about him yet, but Gaud was able to work with the little that he got.

From the little that he was able to get about the 3 gang leaders of the Berserk Gang, he knew that they were not fools that he could easily outwit.

It was definitely not going to be easy, but he still had confidence to outwit them. It would just require more effort and planning on his part.

After knowing about them, he knew instantly that they'll research him and plan contingencies to counter his plans.

Well, he simply decided not to give a damn about their counters and to make a plan that could make full use of the resources that were at his disposal.

Gang leader Beastmare of the Bat Gang was a powerful Advanced mystic warrior whose main mystic ability was the shadow mystic ability.

His 2nd mystic ability which he was known for more was the bat taming mystic ability that granted him the ability to tame, rear, and lead bats into wars.

Like most gang leaders of his level, he still didn't have a 3rd mystic ability yet.

In Gaud's opinion, he had no problems and it was better if he worried about his temporary bouncer. Beastmare would only be able to fight at his peak at night and was why Gaud instantly decided to attack at night.

When he didn't attack all day, Rex and his friends would 90% be sure that he'll attack at night. They were right but they were also wrong at the same time.

Gaud was a great fan of efficiency. If he had the opportunity to poison his enemy to fight him at his weakest later, he would ruthlessly take advantage of it, he was not a glory hound who saw fair battles as a thing of honor.

He was a great fan of fighting dirty.

This was why he decided to attack during the early hours of the morning where it could still be classified as night to enable Beastmare fight at his peak.

After having stayed up all night, despite being Advanced mystic warriors, Rex and Princess Elanor would have definitely weakened even if it was only slightly.

This was his plan to weaken his enemies and to fight at his peak.

Around 3 in the morning, the Bat Gang finally stormed the Berserk mansion.

...

As the sentries of the Berserk Gang kept watch on top the mansion walls, with most of them already tired after having stayed up all night, the warriors of the Bat Gang appeared suddenly like thieves at night.

The first sign was the sky suddenly turning darker as the glow of the moon was bloated by dark arrows that descended from the skies like dark fireflies.

On seeing this phenomenon, the sentries were alarmed as they instantly gave the order for the alarm to be rang.

Before the alarm could be rang, the rain of dark arrows already descended as they wreaked havoc with their shadow energy.

Dozens of the sentries lost their lives from the first attack as a follow-up attack was soon unleashed, but by then, the Berserk Gang already responded.

Having splurged 1 million Duncan Shelter credits to purchase an energy shield through an auction just a day ago, Rex's defense measure finally came in handy as the energy shield was erected.

Most of all the follow-up attacks from the warriors were held at bay by the energy shield as the warriors of the Berserk Gang finally started retaliating.

In no time, fire skills, water, earth, and different mystic skills were unleashed by the mystic warriors as a war began.

This war between the basic mystic warriors seemed to only be through ranged combat as despite the bombardment, the warriors of the enemy gang still did not come out to attack in the open.

About a minute later, the computer operators of the gang finally saw the enemy location and to their surprise, they also had smaller protection energy shields.

If neither side was able to breach the energy shield of the other, then this battle would slowly degrade into a siege battle.

In a siege situation though, the Berserk Gang would be at an advantage since the enemies were the ones attacking.

Inside the center control room of the Berserk mansion, Rex, Aragorn, and Princess Elanor were already gathered as they watched the proceedings.

"Gaud can't be so rigid". Aragorn said with narrowed eyes.

He barely finished speaking before a loud sound reverberated from a corner of the energy shield that surrounded the mansion.

Instantly, the shield started losing energy like a poked balloon losing air. The CCTV cameras turned there only to see 14 mystic warriors in black cloaks and black masks infiltrating the shield after poking it.

Some of the warriors close to that location rushed forward to attack the intruders but this was a mistake since they all died in no time.

From the little battle, Rex and the others were able to deduce the overall level of the enemies as their faces turned solemn. "Three Advanced mystic warriors and eleven 10th tier Intermediate mystic warriors!"

Aragorn took center stage at this moment. "Elanor, protect the 2 Eldens, I and Rex will be going out to confront them".

Without a moment of hesitation, Rex and Aragorn rushed out of the central control room after donning their war gear as they got prepared to engage in battle.

Having prepared an elite battalion of Intermediate mystic warriors already, Rex and Aragorn led their warriors as they confronted the enemies in battle.

Despite being vastly outnumbered, the enemies did not cower as all of them entered a circular offensive formation before aggressively clashing with them.

Boom!

The sound was like exploding dominoes as mystic energy clashed fiercely.

Elemental mystic energy, domain mystic energy, and even unique mystic energy clashed as different skills were hauled at each other from both sides.

The 14 enemy mystic warriors were super strong and could hold their own against such a horde of enemies as some warriors of the Berserk gang already started dying in droves, but they also didn't progress into the mansion.

Having led army units before now, Aragorn took over command as he led his warriors to battle with a strategy aimed at surrounding the enemies and boxing them in. With their numbers, this was not hard as they surrounded them in no time.

After surrounding them completely, Aragorn changed his strategies to defend and spam attack. Defensive mystic warriors went to the front to defend against their attacks while those with ranged attack abilities attacked from behind.

Once the first mystic warrior death happened, the 2nd and 3rd soon followed. It seemed like they were winning, but Elanor's voice soon sounded in their comm.

"Gaud is already inside the central control room".

Rex felt a chill crawl down his spine as he and Aragorn instantly checked on the motion sensor parameters only to discover no strange movements recorded.

"How?"
