Epic of Vampire Dragon: Reborn As A Vampire Dragon With a System

Chapter 407 – The Strategy

—–

I have thought about a way to get inside of the city but I would need the cooperation of some people in here, those two would be Erebus and Rust. The two of them had shown to be capable of "hacking" technology one way or the other. What Erebus does is using his soul to infuse himself into magic technology, it seems that being a dungeon sort of makes him compatible with such items. I have yet to understand it well, but apparently dungeons are very similar to magic technology for some reason, it is as if they were entities very similar to the structure of how magic technology works, so for a powerful dungeon such as Erebus, it is easy for him to do things such as hacking them and modifying them, as if he could infect them.

And then there is Rust, who is similar to Erebus but to an even greater degree, he can not only hack things, but he can also fuse with them, modify them, transform them, and make them into part of his own body, anything technology-wise that he touches and can find some sort of energy from it can be converted into him… quite literally. He's stronger than Erebus in such things, and could become incredibly useful, it feels as if Khaos had sent him exactly for this purpose, as if she was seeing through fate itself and predicting I would need such an interesting ally.

Rust is someone amazing, so I will use his powers as much as possible.

"A good way to get through there is by going underground, right?" Asked Ifrit. "We can swim into the lake, go around the city and dig into the underground, easy."

The demon had a point, but in fact, that was impossible for a very simply fact, the barrier covered the area completely, it was also extended underground.

"You got a point but the barrier is extended in a bubble-shape all around the city, even on its underground…" Said Abyss.

"You're really dumb sometimes; did you really think that these guys would leave such an obvious weak area that they cannot guard? Most barriers nowadays are just bubble-shaped to cover underground as well." Said Lilith.

"It has been quite common in history for invaders to invade a territory protected by a forcefield barrier through the underground, completely negating the strategic purpose of such an expensive artifact, this is why some thousands of years ago they started making them all bubble-like." Said Edward, reprimanding Ifrit.

"I-I see… I guess I am indeed a bit stupid, that's a pretty obvious weakness…" Sighed Ifrit.

"I can help!" Said Erebus.

"Yeah, I had thought about employing your help, Erebus. Your abilities are very useful. I still remember when you hacked the system of that area that sold Slaves. Do you think you could hack these walls and the barrier?" I wondered.

"I could try." Said Erebus. "I think it can work if Rust joins."

"Wust?" Asked Rust, he still had problems talking with words, and his mentality was very much that of a baby, but he was able to understand orders and also words well, and knew what we referred, most of the time. Although he had been mostly eating metal scraps and other items dropped from the dungeon lately, which Erebus produce naturally, so the two had become good buddies, almost as if they were siblings.

"Yeah! Rust could do it! You're pretty good at hacking techno stuff, right?" Asked Abyss. "And with Erebus guidance as your big brother, there's no way you two will fail!"

"I wiw dwo!" Said Rust, saying "I will do!". His baby voice is honestly quite… adorable. I had only thought of other adorable things before when I saw Erebus and also Abyss. It is a strange and… even warmth feeling to see something you find "adorable" and Rust is one of those people that give me such a feeling.

"With Rust and Erebus helping in that regard, we'll need distractions as well, and a way to somehow mask their presences from the frog…" I said.

"That frog has incredible detection abilities, anything can be detected by her, even more beings with our level of divine power, we cannot really escape her grasp." Said Edward.

"We would need to do something like… not even being there!" Said Boxxy.

"Wait, can't Abyss do something like that?" Wondered Aruliel. "You got space magic!"

"Yeah, I can… How about we put them inside a spatial layer?" Wondered Abyss.

"I can help too, using Void magic and the ring you gave to me. I think this is the best idea…" I said. "We can hide them between the spatial layers and through it, they can reach the walls through such a way. But this also makes us get very busy, and using spatial powers is taxing to both the mind and the energy reserves, but I think I can pull through it with your help."

"Yeah, me too." Said Abyss. "I think we can really pull it through! If we can take over the walls, and with the powers of Rust even over the entire technology-filled city, we could have a very strong force over our enemies from the get-go! However, that would be bad too, we cannot bring unwanted attention until we rescue Nesephise…"

"That's why we'll pretend everything is going okay, and we won't deactivate the barriers yet until we can locate Nesephise, infilter the technology where she is being held captive, rescue her and the frog's egg, and then get the frog on our side with these two." Said Erebus.

"Incredible insight, I was thinking just the same thing, Erebus." I said.

"Then with that, we'll have an amazing ally with us, that frog is crazy strong." Said Belphegor. "If we can really get her help… Then things become doable, I believe!"

"Indeed! They truly become doable!" Said Abyss.

"Then we are doing just that." I said with a nod.

"But what about Valen?" Asked Natalia. "I think as of now, we can handle the other idiots, but Valen… He's the big problem here, if he gets in the way… We'll be forced to fight."

"Then I will take him on… I will hold him until you can secure Nesephise and the frog's egg." I said.
