She was aware of this fact from the moment Yang Jin'er passed away and Ludwig was born. Therefore, she has always had a peculiar obsession with becoming stronger, but it was only after she possessed the powerful strength of the vampire queen that she put this obsession into action.
After all, a beautiful young woman as cunning and scheming as her could have lived a carefree life in the mortal world solely through her cunning and beauty, without ever having the need to "become stronger" for the past hundred years. But now, if she doesn't have greater power... the entire vampire clan will lose everything.
Because she is the Eternal Night Queen, who symbolizes and rules over the vampires.
"Queen Lingxi...I have offended you greatly."
hum-
"【Eternal Night Witch】!"
...
...
...
Ludwig laid the Night Witch flat on the coffin, and as the dark blue ghost girl slowly descended, her "spirit" gradually merged completely with the spirit in the coffin.
Then, a strange light burst forth.
"As expected... there was a rejection reaction! After all, it's not the same form of energy..."
Ludwig closed her eyes, focusing intently on controlling the flow of energy around her.
"But, a piece of cake...!"
Om-!
The strange light quickly dissipated after a moment, signifying... that it was all over.
...
There was no one else in the coffin, and the witch's robes and skin no longer emitted that faint dark blue glow.
If when she evolved from the Moon Shadow Witch to the Eternal Night Witch, the dark blue fluorescence around her only dimmed considerably... then now she is like a vibrant living being, possessing a completely real appearance, with no trace of "spirit" left.
“Hmm…”
The Night Witch sat up, and her first reaction was to look at her own body.
She spread her fingers and looked around her body, sensing a subtle sense of unease.
"Hmm... I see. So the body's posture changed because the Eternal Night Witch was the main material?"
The Eternal Night Witch touched her face, and both her face and fingers had a realistic tactile feel, undoubtedly indistinguishable from a real body.
She looked up at Ludwig, who was standing in front of the coffin.
What do I look like?
Ludwig tilted her head: "Hmm...it's like I'm looking in a mirror, it's totally my face."
The Eternal Night Witch tilted her head as well.
"Oh, so that means the remaining energy in Lingxi's body is probably not enough to affect her face. At most, it will only cause some changes to her body."
Ludwig smiled.
"Hehe... In short, this way it's like having two bodies to use."
The Night Witch also smiled in the same way; they seemed to be each other's mirror.
Even mental strength is comparable
That's equivalent to doubling.
...
In reality, the Eternal Night Witch and Ludwig... these two individuals who can now exist independently, share only one consciousness.
"It's a wonderful feeling to talk to yourself."
"Yes, yes. It's like talking to yourself."
"He was definitely talking to himself."
One consciousness controls two bodies simultaneously, but the mental and physical energy consumption is borne by each body—meaning that Ludwig can now achieve twice the results with half the effort in everything she does.
The Eternal Night Witch no longer needed Ludwig's consciousness projection to act independently, because she was now Ludwig's second body. From then on, Ludwig had one less weakness to be targeted.
"After all, it was only by using the body of the Queen of the Spirit Dwelling that the Eternal Night Witch could exist alone, so it's best not to let her know about this."
The Night Witch was deep in thought.
"She might get angry if I don't get her permission."
There was a hint of sadness in Ludwig's expression.
"However... I'd better tell Coco everything."
"If I don't tell these secrets, I always feel inexplicably choked up."
If Keke is the most important person in her heart, she shouldn't hide anything from her.
Ludwig sighed softly and closed her eyes at the same time as the "self" before her.
"Eternal Night Witch, return to your place."
Om-!
Clearly, the Eternal Night Witch had not lost the ability to return to her original form. A flash of dark blue light appeared, and Ludwig, who had appeared as a witch, vanished as a spirit.
"Hey, 1+1 is greater than 2 now, I can see my cute face every day from now on."
This was the first thing Ludwig thought of.
After all, she is indeed somewhat narcissistic and knows she is very cute. But to say she has self-awareness... well, she genuinely doesn't realize she's a bit dim-witted.
Chapter 234 Isolation
"Lu, Lu!"
Coco stood with her hands on her hips, scolding the obedient-looking Ludwig.
"I knew you couldn't possibly collapse from exhaustion so quickly! Given the physical strength of the vampire queen, it would have taken at least several more months for her to become this ill! So she was secretly controlling the 'blood puppet'!"
she scolded.
"Telling me won't hurt."
...
Ludwig scratched her head: "Coco doesn't think this is a bit... "
Coco said, "They haven't lost their sense of self, have they? For vampires who have been severely brainwashed by humans and corporations, this is the only way to restore their loyalty. If we directly use the Queen's power to make them submit, it will only sow the seeds of rebellion. We can find a way to restore them to their original state later."
Ludwig linked arms with her: "Hehe, Coco understands me best."
Coco poked Ludwig's cheek: "And another thing! You'll have to explain this to Miss Lingxi later, after all, you've taken over her body!"
...
Three months have passed in the Pure Land.
Ludwig's body has fully recovered to its best condition. During this time, she also achieved an "upgrade"—she took the remains of the Spirit Abode and used them as the body of the Eternal Night Witch, allowing the Eternal Night Witch to have a physical form as a "spirit," and giving Ludwig double the physical and mental strength, so that she would no longer collapse from exhaustion due to similar situations.
"Even so, we can't keep 'working overtime' every day. If any more problems arise, it will only cause more trouble for your subjects and for me."
As Coco dressed Ludwig up, she earnestly gave her instructions.
Ludwig stuck out her tongue: "Okay, okay—"
When the day came to leave the Pure Land, Ludwig changed into the gown that belonged to the Queen of Eternal Night. It was elaborate and gorgeous, elegant and graceful, flamboyant and wicked.
As the queen of the vampires, she must always present herself to the world and her subjects in this manner.
"Cough um."
She coughed lightly, and her flirtatious and mischievous expression vanished.
If Coco stands aside and bows:
"Please, Your Majesty."
The Queen of Eternal Night nodded gently, gracefully lifted her skirt with one hand, and led Ruo Keke across the teleportation array.
"Three days have passed in the outside world, so the enemies of the vampires must have already made countermeasures."
"But before me, it is still meaningless."
"The group's blind arrogance not only hastened their demise, but also kept them completely oblivious..."
She gave a wicked smile.
"Vampires, in"
The game was already in check.
...
...
As she stepped out of the teleportation array in the throne room, the loyal subjects of the Eternal Night Queen had already lined up in two rows, waiting for a long time.
"Welcome back, Queen of Eternal Night!"
The vampire queen waved her hand: "No need for formalities."
She walked down the red carpet and stepped onto the stairs, where she gracefully took her seat on the throne that belonged only to her.
"Report on the events of the past three days to me later. Now, I will personally sound the horn for the final battle."
She smiled wickedly, and the dangerous glow emanating from her blood-red eyes could send chills down the spines of any vampire.
"Your subjects will now witness the coming of eternal night."
...
...
...
North Pacific Ocean, on a group of islands.
At the very top of the group's integration center is the president's office.
Clap!
Capilison Spear slammed the glass in his hand to the ground.
After all, the huge sum of money he allocated had all gone down the drain.
"Mercenaries forged in the crucible of North Africa and the Middle East are so utterly vulnerable... I cannot accept this!"
"It's been three days. The Vampire Council hasn't made a move in three days. What are they up to?!"
Upon hearing this, Lykan Jones, the strategist standing nearby, said:
"In my opinion, their queen must have been injured in the battle. That's the only possibility. After all, the spokesperson for the vampires is the vampire queen herself. She has never allowed anyone else to speak on behalf of the vampire council in public. And the vampire council has remained silent after such an overwhelming victory... It seems that something must have happened to her."
Capilison waved his hand and said, "It's no use! Judging from the information we've gathered so far, the Night Queen is far more powerful than the Eternal Queen. Judging from the mercenary group's disastrous defeat, the vampires didn't put in much effort at all. Even if she was injured, with the vampires' extremely strong regenerative abilities, she will recover in just a few days at most."
At this moment, Capilison felt only regret and anger.
He was regretting... why he hadn't been able to kill Ludwig and Yin Shang in time?
"If I had discovered earlier that these two guys were so troublesome, they wouldn't have had the chance to get me alive now."
"Pawns, chariots, cavalry, cannons... all the chess players I painstakingly trained have fallen to them one by one..."
"Even you, strategist! You infiltrated the castle, not only failing to kill the sleeping vampire queen, but also having the Holy Lance spirit you stole rescued right under your nose!"
Jones immediately knelt down and said, "This is my dereliction of duty, Mr. President, but please believe me, I had no other choice."
He adjusted his glasses.
“If you insist that I keep the Holy Lance, it’s not impossible. But in that case, you will lose another ‘chess player’.”
...
"Ha, what are you talking about? There are no chess players left."
Capilison stood up, patted him on the shoulder, and gestured for him to stand up as well.
“I let you eat that useless ‘image,’ and all the others have already been defeated. Of all the chess pieces, you are the only one left.”
“I’ll ask you one more time, Lykan.”
