Vampire God in the Apocalypse

Chapter 15: 15. Heaven's tower (3): Anti-daylight coat

All of them were stunned when a long, black coat appeared in front of Dexter. It was very beautiful, with golden outlines and intricate designs. The coat looked like it was made with the finest leather ever.

He then stared at the details of the item.

[Anti-daylight cloak: Protects an individual from the rays of the sun. The sun will have no effect on those wearing this cloak.

Cost: 450 points.]

"450 points for this. It has such a simple purpose." Dexter said in confusion.

"To create something is more expensive than buying them. Its rule of Heaven's tower." The fairy said as she flew to his side and looked in front of him.

Dexter didn't bother as no one else but him can see it... or was he wrong?

'Wait... can she?' He turned his head slowly to see the fairy looking at him with confusion.

He just paid for the cloak and then put it on. He was wearing normal clothes inside; a plain black shirt which was torn and a pair of stretchy joggers.

"Tell us what the coat does Dexter. I'm sure it's super cool." Rina came up to him and began to feel the cloak up.

"It's just for my skin condition. I won't have to fear the sun now," he said with a smile and Zain nodded.

"I'll walk around to see if I need anything else."

Dexter began to walk around and indeed there was a lot of things which he couldn't learn due to him being a vampire.

[Light manipulation: Manipulate Light and bend it to your will and desire.

Cost: 780 Heaven's tower points

(Has 1% chance to learn due to your race.)]

'Damn.' He then continued to look for more until he finally stumbled upon one skill in particular which he could learn.

[Lightning manupulation: Control and produce lightning from within you at the expense of your own spirit energy.

Cost: 370 Heaven's tower points.]

'This one doesn't have any requirements to learn it.' He immediately bought it and now he had less than 300 points more.

[Heaven's tower points: 207.]

He then walked to the left side to pick more items as he couldn't be wearing clothes with no defence in the apocalypse.

Those zombies with long claws and monstrous teeth won't be able to bite through a thick surface.

'Damn. Armours are not less than 1500 coins.' He looked at Leo with wide eyes filled with jealousy and stared back at the screens.

At the end he just picked a simple black shirt which was thick and a long, flexible pair of trousers that fit him perfectly and he then looked for something very crucial.

He then reached a peculiar row and he touched an orb there.

[Basic dagger technique: The ways, mindset and method to use a dagger properly.

Cost: 100 Heaven's tower points.]

'It should be in this row.' Dexter thought and then began to touch each and every orb there.

After touching more than fifty orbs he then finally found what he wanted.

[Basic spearmanship: The basic ways of handling and using a spear.

Cost: 100 Heaven's tower points.]

Dexter smiled as he saw it and bought it. Now he held two orbs in his hand, one for the lightning manipulation and one for spear technique.

He looked down at the black shirt he wore.

'This ordinary shirt gave me +2 strength points. Very nice. Didn't even cost a lot, only 45 points.' He thought with a smile on his face.

"That's good. Now you'll be able to fight those zombies with us." Zain patted his shoulders.

"Okay. Time to go." The fairy said but then Dexter stopped her.

"Wait. What about the technique? Why can't a person get it here?" He asked.

"A technique can't be bought. It must be made. Cannot be created from the tower also." The fairy shook her head.

"If you have a technique, then I suggest that you focus on the technique as every technique is extremely valuable and priceless. You got extremely lucky if you have one though." Sera said before waving her hand and then Dexter and his group vanished from the tower before they could ask questions about the tiran impact.

Dexter opened his eyes in the room where Laurence left them to see Rina and the others all stretching and moaning in pain.

"Astral projection is no joke." Zain said as he felt sore all over.

'Astral projection? Moving a spirit.' Dexter understood. He picked his spear and wore the gloves in front of him and they vanished into thin air, confusing Dexter.

"Oh. Heavenly totems are like that. All you have to do is think about it and it will come back. It's almost like summoning." Rina explained.

Dexter then thought about the gloves and they appeared on his hands and he squeezed them happily.

...

Back inside the biggest building in the survival camp Laurence was currently reporting back to the man in charge.

"Colonel Chapman. The station today had bombs in it and even more guns." Laurence said to a man in his early fifties who sat on a couch with a beautiful woman by his side.

The man was brown skinned with bald head. The scar that he had on his forehead made him slightly scary.

"That's great news." Colonel Chapman said as he removed a cigarette from his mouth and blew a cloud of smoke into the air.

Laurence and even the beautiful lady didn't seem to be bothered by the smoke.

"And I even found more people. And these ones are brave individuals." Laurence said, knowing that he was going to get the colonel's attention.

"They can fight? That's good news. This camp is filled with cowardly men and women. We need people like them." The colonel said with a smile.

"I think that we should recruit the useful ones." Laurence suggested.

"Hm. Some are useless?" The colonel was confused.

"Yes. There was a particular guy who dropped a big bag which was probably filled with foodstuffs." Laurence remembered Dexter's face. "He had no ability at all and was just weak in general. Although he was blocked by a wall of ice, I doubt that he was the one that killed the high level dogs as he had no weapons."

The colonel seemed to think about it for a while before deciding to make the ones that can fight, fight.

"There is a tiran asteroid just ahead of this camp and I'm certain that a titan will show up soon." Colonel Chapman then stood up. "We have to prepare for the worst."

Laurence then nodded. "I understand."

He walked out of the room and headed to rest and Meet Dexter's crew the next morning.

"Do you think we will be able to beat a titan?" Beatrice, the woman beside him said in a beautiful tone.

"I don't know. Last time we lost a lot of good men to a titan. But we just need more men that can fight and we'll pass the titan and head for the main military base just beyond Serene." The colonel squeezed his fist as he made his plans.
