    ...

    Yes, they're all corrupted. Therefore, there is no one for them to attack. Because everyone is corrupted. They don't attack each other, only the unmarked.

    You may have a point that I should have been clearer that everyone taking part in the attack has been either issued with a ward or charmed to resist. It's not perfect, but they're assuming that things are going to be resolved one way or another before it becomes an issue.
    Thank you, corrected.
    You're... Assuming that they care.

    Mildly interesting fact: the whole thing about wooden stakes is a myth. It's just that most vampires can heal fast enough that stab wounds such as might be inflicted by a narrow stabbing weapon don't really threaten their existence. A wide wound through the heart on the other hand is virtually impossible to heal, and those tough enough to survive it are obviously impaired by the lack of blood flow.

    Point is, it's-

    "AGHYOUFUCKINGCRAZYBASTARD! I'LL EAT YOUR MOTHER!"

    -not the wood.

    Construct hooks work just fine.

    "How are you still moving?"

    "WE ARE A SUPERIOR FUCKING BREED!"

    "Superior to humans?"

    "TO-! GAH!" The vampire reaches up to the construct hook sticking through her chest with both hands, but isn't able to muster enough strength to damage it. "WEAKER VAMPIRES!"

    "Ah." I nod. "Just wanted to be certain. What exactly do you mean by that?"

    "WE ARE IMMUNE-! FUCK, TAKE THIS OUT OF MY CHEST!"

    "That doesn't sound like a good idea. Though I am impressed that you're still functional."

    I look over to the Tree of Pain that I've set up, the other vampires on it somehow still being animate.

    "Orange Lantern to Count Berlin. I've identified and removed all vampires in the region."

    "Finally. Out."

    I bring the hook a little closer.

    "Immune to what?"

    "SUNLIGHT! GARLIC! RIVERS! ARRRRGHHAHAH!"

    "And crosses?"

    "YESYESFUCKINGYES!"

    "How about religious symbols from other religions?"

    "I DON'T KNOW!"

    "Seeds?"

    "WHAT?"

    "Well." I pull a vial of what I suspect to be an alchemical solution out of her clothes. "It's interesting, anyway."

    I put construct clamps on her arms and legs, remove the hook-

    She gasps with relief.

    -and impale her on the Tree.

    "AHNOAH-H-H!"

    And then pick up the Tree.

    "AAAAGHUUHHHH!"

    And fly back to where the boss vampire was talking to Count Berlin.

    Boss vampire is shivering on the floor, trying to crawl away from Shadow of War. Reichsmark-

    "Stand up and fight, trouser-shitter!"

    -is squaring up to a vampire who has already had half of their face caved in but gamely throws himself at the metal-skinned git, claws and surviving teeth extended. Reichsmark takes a stance and extends, the blade of his right hand punching right through the vampire's chest and spine.

    A vampire who feels lucky lunges at Baroness Reiter, and he completes his lunge in the form of dust as a torrent of pink energy erupts from her face and disintegrates him.

    Angelika floats down over the caravan.

    "Would everyone who would like to surrender-"

    Energy pulses from Baron Gestapo's robots begin hitting home as they lumber into view.

    "-please come over here-"

    Ms. Brauer picks her opponent up and hurls them into a wooden caravan face first. The vampire punches through the side, then the other side, and lands under Angelika.

    "-and adopt a submissive posture."

    I replant the Tree. Angelika regards it for a moment.

    "Impaling yourself is not necessary."

    White Dragon looks up from where he's incinerating a couple of vampires.

    "And suddenly I respect you."

    "The difference is that they can answer questions, and can amend their lives and live moral lives in-" His flames are turned away by a construct barrier. "-future."

    "Faggot."

    "I will take that as a compliment."

    "I surrender! I surrender!"

    A quick-thinking vampire uses their just-short-of-super speed to dive and cower under Angelika. The other survivors cringingly scurry in the same direction, another flame blast from White Dragon hitting another construct shield.

    "I bet you're the kind of faggot who fucks his own asshole."

    "That would require my penis to be about fourteen inches long. Are you sure that's the insult you wish to make?"

    White Dragon stares at me for a moment, then turns around and stomps back towards the portal site.

    "Good." Angelika puts her hands on hips and looks down at the bedraggled-looking undead below her. "Now, who is in charge?"

    "Prince Roderick!"

    Multiple fingers point towards the man cowering before Shadow of War.

    "And why are you following him?"

    "We would starve if we did not!"

    "Miss Talkative over there-" I point to the Tree. "-was trying to feed me a line about vampiric superiority?"

    "She does that with everything! Even before she was a vampire!"

    "Starvation shouldn't be a problem. I can build you a machine to create new blood for you."

    "Really?"

    "Yes. But I'm afraid that we're going to need some things from you in return."

    In Hitman they really upped the abilities of Vampires.

    The vampires weren't killed by freaking decapitation.

    Hitman wasted a guy who was doing the whole Monty Python Black Knight bit while only a head.

    The Russian formula vampires might be even harder to kill than that- Andrew Bennett became truly immortal, reviving after "true death" again and again after he took the Russian formula.

    I think that if the Nazis found out about how the Citadelian cloning program resulted in them degenerating in intelligence to that of someone who they would have sterilised as part of the Nazis' eugenics programs, they'd probably react with something like "preventing this sort of dysgenic outcome is why eugenics are so important".

    If they labelled the Citadelians as subhuman, I'm not even sure they'd be wrong, really - and let's be honest, the Citadelians are bad enough that even if
    the Nazi Party leadership decided to launch an invasion of the Vega System using Kryptonian warships to conquer them, being ruled by the Nazis would arguably be an improvement.

    To be fair, a lot of the things that hurt Vampires hurt everyone. Head cut off? Pretty fatal for anyone who can't detach and reattach body parts. Several-inch-thick shaft of anything through the heart? Even if you don't use it, it's still gonna hurt...

    Amusingly, I'm picturing them swearing in whatever eastern European language the Blade movies used for the 'Vampire Tongue'...

    :cool: ...Hardcore.

    A superior breed of leech. Yes, that's such a noble status. Or do you mean you're superior at sex? :rolleyes: Seriously, 'Fuck' should not be an adjective...

    Well, okay, that could be concerning...

    Boy, she's chatty, even with the massive thoracic trauma. Seriously, I'm impressed. Evidently he aimed to miss the lungs and trachea.

    ...I'm picturing that, and shuddering. Well done, Mr Zoat.

    I take it the caravan hasn't been sitting on their hands, then. Still, if it lets the Nazis blow off a little steam...

    To be fair, every vampire seems to have different weaknesses, especially the powerful ones.

    ...Oh, come on. Even Dracula was resistant to sunlight (he was weakened but not destroyed by it. Mostly, he lost his more exotic powers.)

    Like, say, Stars of David? A Svastika? Depictions of Buddha? Lucky Cats? :p

    Poppy Seeds, for example. Some breeds of Vampire were compelled to stop and count them if spilled. Jiangshi, of China, had the same thing about rice grains.

    And there's some of the Rashnikov Formula (as linked in yesterday's chapter.) I doubt it's anywhere as good as the Danner Formula, but it never hurts to have samples.

    Sure that's not just the breeze blowing through the hole? :p

    Oh, hush. :rolleyes: At least you're alive... Er, Un-alive. He could just have railgunned each of you from a mile up, simultaneously.

    ...Yeah, that's going to make an impression. On everyone.

    Ah, not so brave now, eh? Evidently some manner of Penance Stare or Fear Gaze effect on the lady's part, I'm guessing.

    How very Hellsing of him.

    ...I'm guessing Superman is quietly standing off to the side with the other strategists, pointedly not listening...

    I suspect she'll get a lot of takers...

    ...Does their surrender count if they weren't moving under their own power? :p

    Yeah, when even your allies are giving you looks, you might have gotten carried away.

    A fact I'm sure OL is quite disgusted by.

    Half-right, white boy.

    Seriously, I suspect even Sinestro would be impressed at that absolute moment of terror.

    ...You think about that stuff a lot, huh? Any repressed feelings you'd like to share, white boy? :D

    Admittedly, it'd also likely need to be prehensile. Fun for him and her...

    I think he's a little occupied right now.

    I rather doubt he's all that qualified, after all, whatever that smarmy attitude earlier suggested.

    There's always one...

    Heck, he could even make it flavoured, I expect. Get rid of that nasty iron after-taste.

    Ooh, that discussion should be interesting.

    Well, that's one annoyance dealt with. And with a minimum of bloodshed (What's a little maiming of vampires between friends, after all?) Hopefully the others have worked out some kind of plan while OL and the grunts have been keeping themselves busy. And hopefully it's more refined than 'Tie Demon-Superman in the Lasso until he's purified...' I don't foresee that going at all well.


    ...he completes his lunge in the form of dust...
    Angelika puts her hands on hips...
    His flames are turned away by a construct barrier.

    Power Rangers did warn us that too much pink energy is dangerous. I guess Zordon was right!

    There's a subreddit that pretty conclusively disproves this. And since we're on QQ, I can share it! /r/selffuck. Note that it's not just regular NSFW; it's the sort of NSFW that disproves that you'd need a 14" (possibly prehensile) penis. I guess they don't have reddit on Nazi Earth. Probably for the best.

    I'm not ignoring everyone and I do appreciate the effort. I just don't have unlimited time to work on things.

    Now I have to wonder WHY these kinds of vampires lack the vulnerabilities their "lesser" kin have.

    Is their vampirism more scientifically based, (nano-tech, mutagens, meta-humans, super-science in general, etc), or does the Magic that grants them their power lack any Evil/Infernal origins, making them exempt from most of the weaknesses that the opposing Magical Correspondences would impose on most supernatural-type vampires?

    Don't say that, because it's the equivalent to saying all of the barriers gay people face are caused by other gay people, with none of the challenges caused by straight people.
    As amusing as this come back is, it's not completely true. There's plenty of porn to back it up.:oops:

    It's because these are vampires created by the Rashnikov Forumula (or, as referred to in universe, the "Russian Formula"), which was explicitly, er, formulated to have its creations not have any of the standard vampire weaknesses.

    This scene reminded me of the time when Troia first met Paul and was teasing him about his interest in Kon. The two certainly aren't the same, nor have the same meaning or intentions. Probably doesn't help that I also recently re-read that scene. It really shows how Paul changed from being more of a person to something more robot-like.

    Or, because he doesn't particularly like the homophobic jerk and has no reason to interact with him outside of what's absolutely necessary, Paul decided to answer with either the most confusing answer he could think of, or one that would get the Nazi to leave him alone.
