This was the world of Dark Legends.
The origin of the whole story could be traced back to a medieval European lord, Alexander Corvinus.
During the Middle Ages, a terrifying plague occurred in Alexander's territory, and almost all the people in the territory died. However, Alexander Corvinus was strong enough to survive, and his genes mutated as a result, becoming the first Immortal in human history.
After that, Alexander gave birth to three sons.
However, his eldest son, Marcus, was accidentally bitten by a bat and became a blood-sucking vampire. His second son, William, was bitten by a wolf and became a werewolf. He was a werewolf who was irrational and only knew how to bite people. Only the third son was fine, and the human bloodline of Alexander continued to multiply for generations.
As a werewolf with only bestial nature left, William went around hurting people as he pleased, creating countless crazy werewolves. In order to stop his younger brother's behavior, Marcus found Lord Victor, who was about to die of illness in bed. At the cost of turning him into an immortal vampire, Marcus asked him to help capture William alive and imprison him. He lied to him that if he or William died, all werewolves and vampires would die as well.
Victor believed Marcus 'lies and turned his army into a vampire army. In order to control Victor's ambition, Marcus also transformed another female lord, Amelia, into a vampire. Amelia also transformed her army into a vampire legion, and together, they captured William alive and imprisoned him in a special secret prison.
As the first generation of vampires, Marcus had the strongest power. Victor and Amelia had a large number of vampire legions under their command. The three of them were the three elders of the vampire race, and they took turns to control the power of the vampire race.
When one elder was in power, the other two would fall into a hundred-year-long slumber.
Under the leadership of the three elders, the vampires developed like wildfire. On one hand, they controlled the Werewolves well and made most of them their slaves. On the other hand, they used the excuse of protecting humans from the Werewolves to make humans pay tribute to the vampires and obtain a large amount of economic support.
Until one day 600 years ago, a strange child was born among the werewolf slaves in Victor's territory. He could freely switch between human and wolf forms, and had normal rationality and thinking ability. He was no longer like the werewolves in the past, who had low intelligence and were like beasts.
The first humanoid werewolf, Lucian, was a natural king of werewolves. Even irrational werewolves were willing to listen to his orders, but he fell in love with Victor's daughter, Sonia, and even got pregnant. Victor had a deep affection for his daughter, but he loved power more. In order to avoid being held accountable by the other two elders, he personally sentenced his daughter to death.
Seeing his loved ones and children die, Lu Xi'an finally led all the wolf slaves to launch an uprising against the vampires in anger and despair.
After that, the werewolves gained their freedom, and Lucian faked his death to avoid the sight of the vampires, secretly looking for a way to make peace between the two races.
For more than 600 years, the vampires had been hunting down werewolves. Serena, the Goddess of the Moon, was Victor's adopted daughter and one of the elite " Deathwalkers " of the vampires. She specialized in hunting down werewolves.
The chaotic battle in the subway station this time was because Serena accidentally discovered that a few werewolves led by a bald black man had targeted an ordinary human doctor.
Werewolves were no different from vampires. They suddenly targeted ordinary humans for food, but the sensitive Serena sensed that the purpose of the werewolves was definitely not so simple.
She had planned to follow them quietly and see what the werewolves were up to. She did not expect Baldhead to be so vigilant. He actually noticed the traces of the Deathwalker and attacked without hesitation.
Then…they were caught and brought here to be drenched in the rain.
The rain was heavy.
Small pools had formed on the ground, and the flowers and trees lowered their heads in the rain. The rain on the fence wall formed a curtain of rain and fell into the Thames River, like small waterfalls, making a clear roar.
Han Lingqiu stood in the rain. When the rain fell beside him, it slid to the sides obediently.
He did not answer Serena's question. Instead, he waved his hand and took out the Frostmourne. Then, he stabbed the sword into the bald werewolf's corpse.
Buzz!
The air trembled slightly, and the raindrops turned into ice particles.
Under the gaze of the werewolves and vampires, the bald man, who had long lost all signs of life, suddenly opened his eyes again.
However, at this moment, his eyes were suffused with traces of white light.
"Werewolf Ryze greets the supreme king!”
The tall werewolf bowed respectfully, his deep voice filled with excitement.
Han Lingqiu threw him a set of black armor and a double-handed broadsword similar to Damon's. The werewolf took it without hesitation and put it on.
Whoosh!
The werewolf, who was fully equipped, let out a shrill howl. A large amount of white fog suddenly appeared around its body. Any raindrops that came into contact with the white fog instantly turned into ice.
Although the werewolves and vampires in this world did not belong to the mystical side and usually used guns equipped with silver bullets as their weapons, their innately strong physiques far exceeded that of ordinary humans, which determined that they were more suitable to be transformed into Death Knights than ordinary humans.
There were tens of thousands of werewolves and vampires in this world. It was enough for Han Lingqiu to create a powerful Death Knight army.
A strong wind blew and thunder roared.
Both werewolves and vampires were terrified by this strange scene.
When faced with something incomprehensible, these dark creatures reacted the same as humans.
Werewolves were not magical creatures, but Death Knights were.
For dark creatures who had never seen real magic before, the werewolf's resurrection and explosive magic ability were all hard to accept.
Serena looked like she was in her twenties, but her cold black eyes were filled with intelligence brought by hundreds of years of experience. There were faint wrinkles around her beautiful eyes, but it was more due to the sadness and anger of the centuries, not the result of age.
However, as knowledgeable as she was, she couldn't help but stop thinking.
Suddenly, a cold light flashed in front of her eyes and stabbed towards her companion's chest.
“NO！”
Serena subconsciously exclaimed, but how could she stop the sharp edge of the demonic sword?
The magic sword with flashing runes easily pierced through the male vampire's chest. The blood that spurted out splashed on his pale face, but the instant drop in temperature quickly froze the blood that flowed out.
"Rachel!"
Serena called out the names of her companions and struggled to free herself from the strange threads on her body. Unfortunately, the result did not change.
The male vampire stopped breathing. When he opened his eyes again, his eyes were as pale as the werewolf's.
"Vampire Rachel greets the supreme king!”
The resurrected vampire had the same expression as the werewolf and bowed respectfully to Han Lingqiu.
Han Lingqiu also threw out a set of black armor, but her weapon was changed from a greatsword to two single-handed swords.
A greatsword was suitable for a strength-type knight, while a one-handed sword was suitable for an agility-type knight.
That night, Han Lingqiu made a batch of Death Knight armor as well as the Orion Saint Garment for Lorna.
Compared to the troublesome Holy Garment, the Death Knight Armor that only required simple enchantment took much less time and effort.
Han Lingqiu only used a few hours to make more than 200 pieces.
Of course, since it was standard equipment, its power would be much lower.
This was especially true for the beginner Death Knight armor. It could only slightly increase the wearer's strength, agility, magic resistance, and physical resistance. Other functions were almost non-existent.
However, even if it was a basic armor, the Death Knights transformed from werewolves and vampires would be able to increase their combat strength by several times.
Now, each of them could easily crush more than ten of their former companions, and they no longer had the weakness of being afraid of silver or sunlight.
"Rachel, what happened?" Serena asked in disbelief.”
Rachel smiled at her." Serena, don't worry. I'm fine. I've never been better. You guys will be like me soon..."
"You're crazy!"
Before Serena could finish her sentence, the rune sword pierced through another of her companions.
"Nathaniel…"
Serena's eyes were filled with anger. The Deathwalkers were in a team of three. The three of them had been in the team for hundreds of years, but they had mysteriously died here today…Although they looked fine, she had seen their changes with her own eyes. How could they really be fine?
