Vampire God in the Apocalypse

As the bus drove in silence, the blue-haired guy along with the silver-haired lady glanced at Dexter who seemed to be deep in thought as they rode in silence.

"Hey guys. Titan up ahead. Seemingly level 24 to 28." The voice of the blindfolded man came from the front seat and Dexter looked forward while raising his brows.

"There's a new device in the car that sees the levels of the creatures by measuring their spirit energy." Johnny said as he looked forward through the small window leading to the front of the truck and far in front was a giant insect creature which looked exactly like a centipede, but was extremely black.

It's body had a metal sheen.

It's mandibles were like scissors and they spread to the sides as the Titan shrieked loudly before charging towards their truck.

"Halt! I'll take care of this." The man in front with a blindfold opened the side door of the front seat where he was and he jumped out of the moving car before running towards the centipede.

"Austin. That guy is so provocative. Always wanting to kill monsters." Johnny mumbled and Dexter raised a brow as he looked at Johnny.

"Impossible. Who in their right senses would want to fight creatures that can kill you?" Dexter mumbled but Johnny only shrugged as he mentioned a name.

"Austin of course."

The answer left Dexter stunned.

"His only sister, wife, daughter, and sight were taken from him by the monsters." Johnny explained and Dexter looked forward and to see the man running softly on the ground, avoiding every stone and debris of broken buildings on the path which instructed him.

He unsheathed his katana and the centipede that was nearby attacked with precision.

It had two scythe-like arms and it struck down towards Austin, destroying that part of the road.

Austin on the other hand was quick, dodging at the last moment before it's legs hit him.

*CREAAAA!!*

The creature shrieked loudly as it charged towards Austin and the blind man charged towards it.

A blue, transparent aura suddenly wrapped around the silver katana in his hand and as the centipede creature struck down with it's sharp, pitch black legs which were just like it's body.

Austin wasn't going to take the creature likely and jumped up while rotating. He sliced off the leg from it's joint and a dark blue blue blood flowed out of its open wound.

The creature immediately went berserk as it swung it's scythe-like arms at Austin at hyper speed, leaving only blurs and he jumped and leapt around, Blocking the attacks from it's arms, flashing from one place to another as explosions and buildings got destroyed.

"Um, we should just stay here and watch?" Dexter asked and the others looked at him.

"He said he'll take care of it. Let him take care of it." The handsome man with short Grey hair said as he crossed his arms.

...

'Its arms are strong, but it's legs seem to be weaker as they're not made for fighting.' Austin thought as he speedingly maneuvers around the centipede, dodging every strike.

'One hundred legs on each side... Two hundred legs. Let's do this in one swing.' Austin thought as he suddenly charged away from the road and the centipede let out a high pitched shriek as it chased after Austin, loud crackling sounds of it's legs resounded.

Because the centipede was chasing him, it was on flat grond now and it's legs weren't raised up and his katana suddenly began glowing at the sharp edge and a blue aura gathered around it.

The creature's eyes suddenly began to glow green as Austin gathered spirit energy in his blade.

He jumped forward while spinning, rotating circularly more than five times before spreading his hand and stopping.

A large arc of blue energy flew towards the centipede and one advantage was that it was low and close to the ground and it was too close to dodge.

The arc was fast, it swept through below the centipede and it's eyes widened as the wave suddenly passed below it and it shrieked loudly before wiggling around like crazy as it let out painted cries.

...

"Hey, what are you doing?" Johnny asked as he saw Dexter open the back of the truck and jump out.

They currently parked till the battle between the monster and man were over.

"I'm helping out." Dexter grinned.

He looked up the building which they parked beside before running up it with lightning sparking in his hands.

He landed on the top of the roof and then gazed at the battle which wasn't so far away.

"Let's claim a bit of spirit points." Dexter mumbled as he stretched his hands in front of him.

Lightning suddenly shot out of his finger tips and gathered in front of him, forming a long rod which soon had a blade at it's tip.

Dexter held the spear, using his spirit energy to keep it from dispersing.

He looked forward, towards where the centipede chased Austin to and he sat down at the edge of the building.

Soon, a blue arc passed underneath the centipede and it suddenly started wriggling and then he saw Austin walking towards the centipede and he smiled as he targeted the head of the creature with his lightning spear.

'Lightning bullet spear, version 2.' He thought the name of the skill as he therew the spear directly towards the centipede, using force release so that the attacks won't get pulled down a bit by gravity.

..

Austin didn't want to waste any time and headed towards the creature while it was down.

All of a sudden, he saw a bright light from his side and then the sound of thunder reached his ears, followed by a large explosion, accompanied with the crackling sounds of electricity.

Austin was dumbfounded. But then he saw a screen in front of him.

[Your team have slayed Level 25, Blade centipede. You have gained 800 seventh class Spirit points and 7000 heaven's tower points.]

[Team bonus; 400 spirit points and 3000 heaven's tower points.]

Austin was angry that the points he was supposed to get were split between him and the mysterious supporter and he walked back to where the bus was parked.

...

"Why did you do that?" Johnny asked Dexter as he facepalmed.

"For more points sir." Dexter replied and the others looked at him and sighed before waiting for Austin to arrive.

The driver who was just an elderly man was extremely freaked out as he watched the battle that just occurred and the powerful lightning that killed the creature.

"That Titan at level 25 to 27. Even my attacks won't be able to break it's armour. You're quite powerful." The grey haired man looked at Dexter with a smile and Dexter only nodded in response and looked out of the window again.

Austin arrived and then he sat in the front seat before looking back.

"Who killed it?" He asked calmly.

Everyone at the back of the truck looked at Dexter and Dexter sighed as he wondered if he really had to say anything.

"It was me." Dexter said and Austin didn't say anything for five seconds.

"Thank you." Austin said, not what anyone there expected to hear from him as they knew how he loves to hunt by himself.

...

The car drove for more than ten minutes and finally stopped a mile away from a supermarket even larger than the one he explored at his first camp.

The building was very wide, three story building, there were even sections for everything and strange creatures flew above it.

"Okay people, this is going to be very tough." Austin spoke up.

"Number one, we don't know what creatures have entered inside since the last time we raided this place.

Number two, it's very dark inside." Austin said and they all looked at the five large birds that flew above the building.

Each if them were big and dangerous. Vultures that mutated and now feeds on the living rather than the dead.

"We can make holes in the ceiling, that way, it won't be too risky to go in." The lady with the black short hair said and Dexter agreed with her.

"Yes, but you would have to deal with the flying creatures and that would attract more..."

"I'll assist. I can fly." Dexter spoke up, not removing his eyes from the supermarket where he saw a faint red light within the window of the building.

"Alright, this would work. Trissa and Dexter would head to the roof while we deal with the creatures around the entrance." Austin said with a nod.

"Johnny, Isaac, and Lori would be outside to guard. The rest of us would head in after some light has been created." Austin explained the plan and Dexter had to admit that the guy had brains.

Dexter brought up his screen and located his quests tab.

[Quest - Class skills]

Dexter was sure that he would be able to achieve this soon as his stats was way higher than what an average human would have due to him being a vampire.

Another notification caught his interest.
