Fang Heng stared at Tao Ai, his eyes flashing scarlet under the mask.
Tao Ai felt that he could not breathe. He could only watch as his HP dropped drastically. At the same time, he felt a burning pain in his body. The blood in his entire body accelerated uncontrollably, and a faint red color appeared under his skin.
His heart beat violently!
It sped up again and again!
“Bang!!”
The blood exploded from Tao Ai’s body!
The surrounding vampires watched this scene silently, and strange expressions appeared on their faces.
“Patter.”
Fang Heng let go of his hand.
After advancing his bloodline, he could feel that his ability to control blood had improved even further.
This was especially true when dealing with ordinary people.
Even if his opponent was still alive, he could still affect his opponent’s blood.
Did he die just like that?
Meng Hao and Ah Ding looked at Fang Heng in shock, astonishment rising from the bottom of their hearts.
He did it so swiftly and efficiently!
Tao Ai was a member of the twelve corporations!
By killing him, was he declaring war on the twelve corporations?
“D*mmit, Big Brother is Big Brother. He’s so ruth…”
Ah Ding muttered in a low voice, excitedly clenching his fists.
The other two players who had followed Tao Ai were also panicking. For a moment, they stood rooted to the ground, not knowing what to do.
“How can such a low-tier race serve as a guard?” Fang Heng once again shifted his gaze to the vampires leading the way. “I’ll take care of it for you. Do you mind?”
“My apologies, Lord Marquis.” The high-tier vampire bowed. “Please don’t mind. I’ll take you in.”
The high-tier vampire didn’t care at all about the death of a low-tier race.
“Lead the way.”
The three of them followed the high-tier vampire into the villa.
The grand hall on the first floor of the villa was different from what Fang Heng had imagined. It was very modern.
Fang Heng had just taken two steps forward when he stopped and said, “I’ve changed my mind. I want to go to the blood pool now.”
The high-tier vampire frowned.
“Can’t I?”
“Of course you can, Marquis. But please don’t stay in the blood pool for too long so as not to delay the schedule.”
“Okay.”
“Please come with me.”
Hearing Fang Heng’s words, Ah Ding secretly glanced at Meng Hao and was overjoyed.
Great! The blood pool of the Elders Council!
The blood pool could be used to increase the experience points and advanced skills of the vampire bloodline!
The high-tier blood pool in the Elders Council was obviously more efficient than the normal blood pool!
Ordinary players would have to spend at least a few months risking their lives to complete missions again and again in order to gather enough contribution points to enter the Elders Council for a single visit.
They actually relied on Fang Heng to easily come into contact with it.
As expected, staying up late last night to get information was not a waste of effort!
The high-tier vampire led them to a side hall from the main hall. Finally, they turned from a small path to another building.
Finally, the group stopped outside a large door.
The row of high-tier vampires guarding outside the room knelt on one knee.
“Marquis.”
“The blood pool hall is built in the room. Other than the guards, there are currently no vampires inside.” The high-tier vampire pointed to the door of the room in front, “Marquis, I will wait for you here. If you need me, you can summon me at any time.”
“Okay.”
Fang Heng answered and pushed the door open.
The architectural style of the blood pool hall was very simple.
Apart from the surrounding pillars, there was only a super-sized blood pool in the center of the circular hall.
The ceiling was densely packed with high-tier vampires standing on their heads.
Fang Heng walked to the side of the blood pool in the center, squatted down, and reached out to touch the blood pool.
A two-line game hints immediately appeared.
[Hint: Player has come into contact with the blood pool.]
[Hint: Player’s current vampire bloodline has reached the high tier. The blood pool cannot continue to condense the player’s bloodline. Player, please look for a blood pool that contains greater strength.]
Tsk.
“Troublesome!” Fang Heng muttered in a low voice.
His own vampire bloodline skill had reached the high tier. The Elders Council’s blood pool level could no longer provide energy for him to continue leveling up.
It seemed that only Angetas’ blood pool could level up his bloodline.
Fang Heng shook his head inwardly.
Needless to say, the high-tier vampires outside the door probably didn’t have the authority to let him go to Angetas.
Seeing that Fang Heng was silent, Ah Ding and Meng Hao’s hearts skipped a beat. “Boss Fang, is there a problem with the blood pool?”
“No, there’s no problem.”
Fang Heng stood up and nodded to the two of them. “You have one hour to use the blood pool. Hurry up.”
“Ha! Thank you, Boss Fang!”
…
The weekly meeting was taking place in the Elders Council’s meeting hall.
Hearing that Fang Heng had killed a guard of the vampires, the intense discussion among the vampires was cut short.
The players who participated in the elders’ meeting had different expressions on their faces.
They all looked at the supervisor of the Bright Star River Company, Lin Nuo, as if they were watching a good show.
Lin Nuo appeared calm on the outside but there was a hint of anger within him.
His subordinates were becoming more and more idiotic, making decisions without his permission.
Hou Qingyi’s thoughts started spinning.
She had the Southern Federation of District 9 backing her.
The Southern Federation had also joined the investigation of what had happened in Victoria City.
The feedback they received was very little. At the moment, they only knew that there were at least two people on the other side. One of them was Fang Shuo, a member of the vampires.
The other party had the ability to control the undead.
The number of undead he could control might be around 50, but the undead creature was extremely strong and had a powerful self-healing ability. Normal methods would not be able to kill it, so it was very difficult to deal with.
Hou Qingyi had considered the worst outcome.
Fang Shuo, who had been invited here, was in cahoots with the twelve corporations.
Now it seemed that it might not be the case.
Of course, she could not rule out the possibility that they were acting.
Hou Qingyi broke the silence and said, “I think it’s pretty good. An outsider doesn’t have so many scruples when doing things. Fang Shuo doesn’t belong to any clan, so there will not be any conflict of interests, right?”
“What do you mean?”
A vampire elder had an unfriendly expression and immediately interrupted, “Are you trying to say that this matter has something to do with us, vampires?”
“It doesn’t matter.” Hou Qingyi was still calm. “Fang Shuo is only accountable to the Elders Council. We can leave this matter to him.”
All the vampire elders expressed their opinions one after another. “His origin is unknown. I have reservations.”
“If he can help us recover the lost holy weapon of the vampires, it will prove his loyalty to the vampires. If he can’t find anything, we won’t be at ease with him staying in the vampires. This is a chance to test him.”
“Lin Nuo, what do you think?”
Lin Nuo raised his head. Only then did he realize that the Elders Council was asking for his opinion.
Yao Xu looked at Lin Nuo and said with a smile, “Lin Nuo, you are not thinking about taking revenge for your subordinate who was killed by Fang Shuo, right?”
“Of course not.”
Lin Nuo felt disdain in his heart.
Yao Xu was backed up by the interest group of the various guild players in District 9.
They also occasionally cooperated with the other members of the Federation of District 3.
Especially now when they were dealing with the Federation of the Western region.
Currently, as the control of the entire Federation of the Western region was gradually expanding, Yao Xu and Hou Qingyi were already showing signs of forming an alliance.
Yao Xu spared no effort in creating trouble for Lin Nuo.
