Progenitor Vampire: I Have Many Skills!

Chapter 39: Familiar face

Matt nodded to Isla and was the first to exert his power in his fists to lunge hard from the trees toward one of the nearest devourers.

This devourer was not expecting an attack so early in the morning, so he could not defend himself and was struck in the face, sending him flying backward for dozens of meters and hitting several tents in the process.

"It's an enemy attack!" shouted several devourers as soon as they saw this, but they were too slow to react.

Isla launched herself from their side, hitting them with her weapon, and a few seconds later, 20 people appeared from all sides, pouncing hard on various devourers.

"It's an ambush; attack these vampire bastards fast!" The shouts of the devourers came from side to side, but Matt leaped into the air at that moment and landed hard on the one he was leaping over, hitting him with a powerful blow to the chest, destroying his chest and heart at the same time.

Everyone was stunned by such an incredible display of power, but seeing that one of them had died so quickly and seeing that Matt was in front of the two strongest in the place, all the students began to attack with more force and conviction.

Their morale increased dramatically.

Even Isla managed to assassinate another one of the devourers from the side.

"Heh, since you guys dare to try to attack us, I hope you guys at least put up a good fight." Said one of the devourers, speaking to Matt.

Matt smiled, "On the contrary, I hope you guys can give my boys a good fight; I want to train them well." Matt said.

Then, they both ran at each other, throwing a big punch. The clash of fists caused a tremendous impact on the floor, but the devourer was still sent flying backward hard.

"Guys, focus on hitting them near the neck and in the stomach; also, focus all power on the arm when you go to hit them!" shouted Matt.

Among the weaknesses he had known about the devourers were those two places and the fact that, when hit by power, they tend to get a bit desperate and make bad decisions.

That's why he told them that.

And he seized the moment to run towards the leader he had just hit, although he was stopped by the other guy, who was trying to hit him from afar with magic arrows.

Matt jumped backward to dodge the attack but smiled as he saw him in a place where he could not retreat.

Then he stomped his feet and jumped hard to get over him.

The devourer saw this and was stunned, 'Is this guy that stupid?' he thought.

Who would think of jumping through the air when facing an archer? That's a foolish thing to do, and he knew it.

Therefore, he didn't hesitate to launch a powerful attack with his bow, which flew at high speed towards Matt.

"What an idiot." Said the devourer mockingly, but just then, he saw how Matt injected his left hand in power, a place where the arrows hit them.

But they failed to pierce the vampiric power in Matt's hand; on the contrary, they froze as if they had been frozen with magic.

"What the hell!?" shouted the devourer in shock, but when he went to react, a blow hit him hard on the head, sending him crashing to the ground.

The impact kicked up a large amount of rock debris all over the place and shook the mountain slightly.

That attack had been quite powerful.

But it wasn't over yet.

Matt took advantage of falling on top of him and injected all his power into a single attack, which hit him squarely in the stomach.

A spurt of blood shot out of the devourer's mouth, mingling bits of organs.

That attack had destroyed the entire lower part of the devourer. But the attack spread to the surrounding area below ground, bringing an earthquake, destabilizing many who were struggling and uprooting some trees by the impacts on their roots.

All this created a shock in the nearby devourers, who could not believe that one of their leaders was killed in such an easy way.

Although it also shocked the members of Matt's group, happiness overcame them as they shouted toward the sky and started attacking with more determination, driving the devourers each to their respective deaths.

Isla killed a devourer at that moment and came to Matt's side smiling.

Both didn't have to say anything to know what the other was thinking, so they soon ran towards the last remaining leader, who was trying to flee. They both hit him from side to side, destroying the entire camp and bringing him to his death a few minutes later.

After doing their job, they waited patiently for the rest of the team to do theirs. Without leaders, the devourers fell into a passive state, and they were quickly killed.

The students looked extremely happy and motivated, so they all had smiles.

"Okay, that's how we can assassinate a group of devourers. Now, I'll tell you a few things before we move again."

"First, to assassinate, we don't need to see what the opponent is doing; that will only help us to defend ourselves. The only thing we need to know is when and where to attack; that's why we should always keep our opponents' weaknesses in mind or try to look for them during combat."

"The second thing, you must use vampiric power more as a weapon. Listen carefully, vampiric power is not only our source of power, it is also our greatest weapon. Therefore, we will try to assassinate one more camp using the same tactic. Once we are done, we will return to camp and prepare for the next few days." Matt said, and after a nod full of motivation among the students, Matt began to lead the way.

Although they only needed to assassinate one camp and return, the trainings required to be tough to be effective. So, looking for a second camp was the decision Matt would follow this time.

'If I'm not mistaken, this is where this guy's group should be.' Matt thought and just then frowned, looking up for a moment.

He injected his right arm with power and threw a punch upward. His fist met another fist at that moment, and the blow sent him slightly backward, though the other fist was pushed back several feet.

Matt frowned as he saw that the one attacking him was Caspian.
