The howl of the hybrid werewolf echoed between the rock walls, and Alyssa's blue blood twisted into a crown of thorns on the obsidian ground.
"You are our dawn and dusk." The one-eyed old werewolf presented a bone scepter with a dagger fragment inlaid on the top. "Thousands of years ago, the Wolf Mother and the First Ancestor made a blood covenant here and gave birth to the descendants of Night and Fire - and you are the twins in the prophecy."
The seven fragments of Alyssa's dagger were suspended in a ring, and the blue flames carved the God-killing rune on Kane's mechanical core.
The moment the scepter touched the ground, Kane's mechanical body suddenly twitched, and a holographic projection shot out from the spinal interface - showing the scene of the vampire ancestor putting the baby Alyssa into the incubator. The old werewolf's claws suddenly stabbed at the projection: "Lies! Only death was born that night!"
"Are you sure you want to do this?" The old werewolf held her hand. "Combining all the powers... you will become a new curse!"
Alyssa's metal arm grabbed his throat, and the vampire pupil in her right eye shrank: "Keep talking."
"Your mother is not a wolf mother..." The old werewolf coughed up black blood, "She is a vessel that the original ancestor used your genes to...reverse clone!"
Kane's remaining body suddenly hugged Alyssa and jumped into the ice coffin, and his mechanical fingers pierced into the heart of the First Ancestor: "This is my...last agreement..." In the blue light of the core overload, Alyssa saw the truth of a thousand years ago - the Wolf Mother and the First Ancestor were originally two souls in one body, and she was a weapon created to end immortality.
The abyss suddenly shook, and Victor's mechanical army poured in from the cracks, led by hundreds of Alyssa clones.
The ice coffin exploded in the bright light, and Alyssa's right eye completely turned into a blood-red vertical pupil. When she stood up from the ruins, the hybrid werewolves retreated in fear - her shadow split into the dual forms of a werewolf and a vampire.
(The scepter fragment ⑥ resonates with Alyssa's metal arm)
"Now," she crushed the heart of the ancestor, letting the blue blood condense into a crescent moon in the air, "it's your turn to choose a camp."
The clone's blue flames collided with Alyssa's eclipse fire in the air, and the exploding debris fell like raindrops.
"Surprised?" Victor's voice came from each clone's mouth, "You are the original experimental subject - No. VII is just a copy!" Kane's mechanical body suddenly activated the self-destruction program and pounced on the area with the densest clones.
In the mushroom cloud of the explosion, Alyssa grabbed Cain's energy core, which contained a dagger fragment. When the fragment was inserted into the scepter, a wolf mother statue rose from the bottom of the abyss, with the last fragment stuck in its chest.
"Finally gathered them all..." The phantom of the original vampire appeared beside the statue, "Now, let me see if you have the courage to kill your father." His fingertips tapped lightly, and Alyssa's blue blood suddenly flowed backwards, and the same runes as the original appeared on her skin.
Kane's remaining consciousness screamed through the neural link: "He is tampering with your genetic code!"
(The shape of the rune is consistent with the ancient text on the rock wall of the abyss)
Alyssa's dagger pierced through the wolf mother statue, but the fragment ⑦ automatically flew into the hands of the ancestor phantom.
"It's a shame you chose the wrong parents." Phantom ripped open his chest, revealing a mechanical heart - identical to Cain's power core. "Who do you think Cain is? You're just a container for my consciousness!"
A flood of memories suddenly flooded into Alyssa's mind: Thousands of years ago, the First One uploaded his consciousness to the mechanical core, and the Wolf Mother stole the core and gave birth to Cain. When Alyssa's blue blood dripped into the core, Cain's mechanical eyes suddenly regained clarity: "Kill me... to end the reincarnation..."
Victor's clones took the opportunity to attack, but Sylvia's mechanical army turned against them.
"Surprised?" Her mechanical eyes flashed with Alyssa's blue light. "I have your blood in my veins - this is true loyalty!"
The top of the abyss suddenly collapsed, and the moonlight illuminated the real body of the ancestor - he was recovering rapidly in the ice coffin.
(Foreshadowing: The moonlight forms the same frost pattern on Alyssa's skin as the ice coffin)
