    Alucard was supposed to be a Dhampir, a half-human and half-vampire race. He had acquired this race through a series of special quests that rewarded him the blood of a noble vampire, which could turn him into such a race.

    As for his class after the race conversion, it was called a Vampire Hunter. It was a special profession that originated from a famed tale.

    But after he had accepted the inheritance of Dracula as well as the Vampire Primogenitor’s Blessings, his race began to change. His Vampire’s Blood became thicker and more potent, influencing his current race at that time.

    He then became a special type of Dhampir, which possessed the abilities of a True Vampire Noble while being immune to the power of the Sun, specifically the sunlight, which could greatly weaken them.

    As he had the Blessings of Dracula, the Vampire Primogenitor, his vampire abilities went beyond the understanding of common players.

    He became a special existence within the game. In a sense, his current race was slightly beyond the category of Ascended Races and on the same scale as the Transcendent Races.

    However, in exchange for this, he did not have a specific class with special features. He could only retain his original class along with the skill set under it but with slightly enhanced features.

    Since it was from the Vampire Hunter Class and majored in both guns and swords, Alucard called it the Vampire Slayer.

    He had the adaptability of a human when it came to handling a variety of weapons and the special abilities of a noble vampire, particularly when it came to Blood Arts. He found it a very fitting class and race for his current style.

    On the other hand, Moyong Qi, his current opponent, was someone who solely majored in different kinds of firearms and mastered quite several gunfighting techniques. He was a ’Conqueror’, which was an Ascended Human that had evolved through the orthodox class of Gunslinger.

    His class was called the Gun Master, a Tier 3 Gunslinger Class, which majored in multiple types of guns. They always carried a variety of firearms in them, which could help them in different situations.

    His style was somewhat different from Alucard, who could do well in both melee or range battles just like those hybrid and special classes such as Battle Mages. But he was a specialist when it came to gunfighting techniques, which was not only his strong point but also the area where only a limited number of people could rival him.

    Now that there was someone with such a skill standing before him, Moyong Qi refused to let such an opportunity slip away from his grasp.

    "Then, let’s see what you’ve got!" he said with ignited fighting spirit.

    He then raised his assault rifle and aimed forward, firing a series of shots without a pause. He had also planted his feet firmly on the ground to make sure that he would be able to withstand the string recoil of his gun while sending a rain of bullets to Alucard.

    Brrt!

    A series of gunshots rang in the air, repeating the earlier exchange. But this time, Moyong Qi executed some complicated gun techniques to create some tricky trajectories for the bullets he had fired to confuse the opposing party.

    But Alucard was still able to respond accordingly, firing his magic pistols and repeating the earlier event where the bullets ricocheted and collided against one another.

    But instead of staying still on his spot, he suddenly moved while continuously firing his gun. Unlike his pair of pistols, which could give him more mobility while moving and firing at the same time due to their lighter weight, Moyong Qi’s assault rifle was much harder to carry, especially with the powerful recoil that it had.

    ...

    As those experts were discussing with their friends, Moyong Qi, who was on the receiving end of the firing technique, was also able to realize what he was currently experiencing.

    But instead of panicking, the grin on his face grew even larger as he finally stopped insisting on using his assault rifle to match his opponent. He took that rifle away and took out a gatling gun in exchange.

    He waved his other hand, throwing some spheres on the ground, which then summoned a spherical barrier that blocked the rain of bullets coming at him while he was fixing his stance.

    He held the gatling gun with both his hands, fixing the position of his arms, and tightening his muscles.

    Right after adjusting his stance and strengthening his center of gravity, he immediately pressed the trigger, making the barrels of his gun rotate before starting to fire a storm of heavy bullets.

    Du! Du! Du! Du! Du! Du! Du!

    He also drew an arc in the air along with his gatling gun while trying to catch Alucard, who was still trying to match him with his ’Death Shooting Gallery’.

    Unfortunately, the firepower of the opposing side was much stronger than his, so he was forced to stop firing with his pistols and focus more on dodging the hail of bullets.

    But as more time passed, he realized that the space he could use to maneuver his body started to shrink, as Moyong Qi had also used his gunfighting techniques to limit his opponent’s choices when dodging.

    Gunfighting Techniques were meant to hit your target and apply some trick shots to confuse or catch your opponents off guard. They were also meant to restrict the movements of the opposing side through rapid firing or fire suppression.

    Seeing that he would be at a disadvantage even if he tried to fire back with his magic pistols, Alucard knew that he would not be able to escape this predicament with regular means. After all, his pistols were inferior to a gatling gun in terms of firepower, so he would lose in such a confrontation if he tried to rely on his previous techniques.

    Left ’without’ a choice, Alucard quickly holstered back his magic pistols before swiftly pulling out the rapier sheathed right behind his waist.

    Then a dark aura of crimson color shrouded his body, seemingly enhancing his physique. His arms seemed to have flickered for a moment as swung the rapier at the incoming rain of bullets.

    Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

    Flashes of light appeared around him, cutting through the bullets and leaving only their fragment that barely missed his body.

    A moment later, his entire figure turned into a blur, which suddenly charged forward and headed straight to Moyong Qi.

    The expression of Moyong Qi’s face changed a little when he suddenly saw the shadow that was rapidly moving toward his direction. Based on the speed alone, he knew that he would be in deep trouble once it reached him.

    He might have been rivals with the Gun and Sword Kings of that said game, but he had never faced anyone who possessed both of their techniques and fighting styles.
