Chapter 1271 1271: Stronger

"I-I did it…"
Hermes muttered, barely alive, his body had been torn to pieces again, but he quickly began to regenerate and put himself together.
"Blood… I need… blood… Why am I so thirsty? D-dammit…!"
He quickly pointed his metallic claws at the corpse before him, all the blood left behind flowed towards him, forming a huge sphere he drank through his metallic mouth.
The taste was sweet and refreshing…"
"Ah…!"
As he drank more and more, his body quickly regenerated completely, reviving into his former body, as his eyes glowed bright red.
His Blood Aura grew tremendous in size, the delicious blood of Xenoids held all the nutritional value he could have ever desired…
For his Vampiric form, that's it.
"W-Wait, is it even fine to do this?!" he suddenly remembered that Xenoids can infect almost anything with just a cell of their own.
And yet, he didn't feel anything different, he was completely fine!
"Could it be that this transformation allows me to consume any blood without problems?"
Hermes pondered that for a second, before quickly scanning his surroundings for approaching threats.
There were some Brute and Normal Xenoids in the distance, around a hundred making a large swarm…
They had been mostly watching the battle, probably because Agonitias' son told them to do so.
However, they had not even tried to come to his side to attack him.
They were probably terrified by what they saw.
These cold, ruthless aliens finally were learning about fear, and that there might be someone higher than them in the food chain.
"Hmph… What are you waiting for?! I'll take you all head-on, or are you afraid of me? Are you afraid of humans and what we can do? Do you fear that there could be someone above you in the food chain of the universe?" Hermes communicated his words to them through his own telepathic abilities from his new transformation. "I know you aren't stupid to not understand these words. So? What is your answer?"
The Xenoids remained in silence, their tentacles wiggling around, they seemed to be awaiting orders or something, Hermes was about to leave them, as they were still too far away from everyone else.
But then…!
"Hm? I see, so that's your response."
They quickly flew towards him, surrounding him all hundred of them! The Normal Xenoids fired lasers from their eyes, while the Armored Brutes tried to slam their bodies into his machine's body to crush it.
It wasn't an easy fight even when they were much weaker than Agonitias' son, after all, they were incredibly synchronized mentally, and they were able to easily predict movements from their foes based on all their minds connected as one.
And yet…
"I won't let you even give another step!"
SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!
Hermes manifested two Blood Swords and started cutting everything, absorbing their blood and reinforcing his own power even more.
He rushed, leaping from place to place, massacring the Xenoids nonstop, leaving behind their dried-out corpses after blood draining.
As he slashed and cleaved through, he realized just how ridiculously strong his transformation was!
"I'll cooperate as well, and make sure to protect this future, Blake!"
As he fought, he still couldn't help but think about Blake for a moment, and how much his General was an inspiration for his battling.
As all three of Blake's Generals unleashed the powers he gifted them and transformed into incredibly powerful biomechanical beings mixing their bodies and their robots, Blake himself battled the Xenoid behind everything…
.

Blake and his Spirits were trapped within Psychomind's powerful Domain, and while this happened, Saphira unleashed one of her abilities while they battled the "Endless Aberrations" that the monstrous Psychomind created.
The ability, Saphira's [Shadow Nether Fog Pseudo-Domain] was incredible, anything weak enough that entered it was consumed by the fog and killed through Saphira's newly awakened Magic and Spirit Powers, and those that died instantly rose as Undead, helping their army grow larger and battle against the aberrations born from Psychomind's {Mind Domain}: {Warped Cosmos Of Horrors}!
After Blake finally unlocked part of his Grimoire through abusing the loophole of the Alchemy Recipe Book, Saphira was but only one of the many that would begin to unleash their true powers.
"Now… {Undead Fusion}! {Undead Fusion}! {Undead Fusion}!"
Without hesitating and by pouring her own Spiritual Energy and Blake's Mana reserves, Saphira kept using the same Skill over and over again, hundreds of Undead corpses fusing into massive monstrosities, rushing towards the Dark Matter Aberrations and attacking them fiercely, seemingly becoming even fighters, although the Dark Matter Aberrations could be summoned much more easily, and once dead, couldn't be turned into Undead either.
As he saw this happening, Blake thought about what he had left behind, the item to heal the brainwashed and help out his allies outside of this Domain… But in the end, he was unable to move out of here for now, even less interact with the people over there. They were left hopeless and to their own devices.
However, he knew they weren't weak or pathetic anyways, he had even shared with them three of his strongest Skills, so they could use them to transform and unleash tremendous power, increasing their chances of survival.
"I simply have to trust them, this isn't the first time we go through this anyway," Blake smiled, facing Psychomind with his Divine Sword of Light being held by Gaobravelion's mighty mechanical hands.
FLAAASH!
His sword overflowed with power, as Blake rushed towards Psychomind, using his powerful Golden Aura emanated from the combination of the Pearls and also his own newly awakened energies, and clashed against Psychomind's massive tentacles.
CLAAASH!
"NGHH?!"
Psychomind felt his tentacles being easily sliced, as a massive sword of light began to reduce them to sashimi one after another.
SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!
"Ngaaargh! S-Stop that, filthy human!"
With a frustrated scream, Psychomind released a powerful shockwave of pure psychic energy towards Blake!
And yet…
"My Aura is Stronger than your Psychic Power."
TRUUUM!
With only thirty percent of the power of Dragon Tongue, Blake strengthened his Aura, using it to intercept Psychomind's attacks.
BOOOM!
