Chapter 959 - 959 The Arrival of the Reinforcements
959 The Arrival of the Reinforcements
“Mm,” Fang Heng made a soft sound of agreement again, then buried his head in observing the various data displayed on the instrument.
Marquis Brutus was anxious. The situation on the battlefield outside was extremely urgent. How could the King be so calm?
“Your Majesty, the Holy Court is attacking Quentin Fog Castle in three directions, the central urban area, the city of Elena area, and the forest wetland area. Six vampire Marquises are leading the vampires to resist. Please give us your instructions.”
“Alright. The portal will be activated soon. I’m lacking a guide. You can come with us later,” Fang Heng nodded in response.
Right after he finished speaking, a line of game hints appeared on Fang Heng’s retina.
[Hint: You have triggered an influence-related side mission, the Holy Court’s assault in District 8.]
[Mission name: The Holy Court’s assault]
[Mission description: The Holy Court has taken advantage of the vampires’ current weakness to launch a surprise attack. The vampires have suffered heavy losses and are in imminent danger. Most of the vampires in District 8 have pledged allegiance to you but still have doubts about you. It is time to dispel their doubts and show the Holy Court the power of the vampires.]
[Mission requirement: Eliminate the threat from the Holy Court in District 8. ]
[Possible rewards for completing the mission: Increased influence in the world of the vampire, control of District 8, increased level of vampire royal power glory. (The shorter the time taken to complete the quest, the more generous the rewards the player will receive).]
[Mission penalty: While the mission exists, the player’s influence in the world of vampires will be continuously decreased.]
Fang Heng glanced at the game hint and was slightly moved.
Oh, not bad, the game finally did well for once. A mission to increase his influence had come knocking on his door!
While thinking, Fang Heng pressed the start operating button on the space-tearing device’s console.
“Buzz…” The space-tearing device in the center of the hall emitted a faint blue light, and a light blue portal appeared in front of the space-tearing device.
A space passage? Were the reinforcements here?
With a thought, Brutus immediately led the surrounding vampires to back off.
After waiting for a few seconds, Duke Bellamy was the first to walk out of the portal.
Then, Attia and a few vampire Marquises followed them with groups of high-tier vampires through the teleportation portal and entered District 8.
Seeing the reinforcements led by the Duke with their own eyes, both elder Clement and Marquis Brutus had an excited look in their eyes.
Regardless of whether the title of Vampire King was real or fake, the reinforcements were real. They had really come to help!
At least they were more reliable than those scammers in District One!
And there was a vampire Duke among the reinforcements!
If there had been a Duke in District 8, those from the Holy Court would not have been so arrogant!
“Your Majesty!” At the lead, Bellamy knelt with the rest of the vampires in front of Fang Heng, “Everyone is ready. We can attack at any time.”
Fang Heng turned his head and looked at the excited Brutus, “Brutus, lead the way. Let’s go to the Holy Court.”
“Yes!” Brutus knew that the time to counterattack had come. His face flushed with excitement as he asked, “Your Majesty, the Holy Court is currently attacking our territory from three directions. The forest wetland area is the most severely attacked, and the Marquises guarding the area can no longer hold on and are retreating. We can immediately teleport to the nearest teleportation point in the area and attack…”
“No, it’s too troublesome,” Fang Heng interrupted, “We’re not going there. Let’s go directly to the headquarters of the Holy Court.”
Brutus’s pupils constricted.
The headquarters of the Holy Court?
Did he want to destroy the headquarters of the Holy Court?
Brutus took a deep breath, “You mean you want to attack the headquarters of the Holy Court?”
“That’s right. They’re just the remnants of the Holy Court. There’s nothing to be afraid of.”
What a joke. Fang Heng had already assessed the strength of the Holy Court here. The meaning of the existence of the Holy Court in the Vampire Apocalypse was to be kept in captivity.
The archbishops with the strongest combat strength were only at the Duke level.
On his side, he had Duke Bellamy and the fusion Tyrant forms.
What was there to be afraid of? He could just crush them!
It was just enough to show his might!
“Yes! Your Majesty!”
Brutus felt that Fang Heng was right!
For the past two days, the vampires had been crushed by the Holy Court, and they couldn’t come to their senses.
Now, Brutus felt like he had returned to the time when the vampire Prince was still in District Eight.
The Holy Court was nothing!
They could crush the Holy Court however they wanted!
“Yes! The closest teleportation point to the headquarters is in the wilderness city of Lowen. We’ll teleport immediately.”
“Adjust the teleportation passage’s frequency to the maximum. My friend is quite huge.”
“Huh? Your friend?”
Brutus was still confused when he heard heavy footsteps coming from the portal.
“Thump… Thump, thump…”
Turning around, he saw a huge creature that was exuding lifeblood power. Brutus was shocked.
That terrifying monster…
What was it?
…
In District 8’s Holy Court headquarters, the Holy Court’s archbishop Jali’s expression was uncertain.
The plan to attack the vampires was instigated by several Inhumans.
At first, the Holy Court had been hesitant, but after a series of probing, Jali found out that the strength of the vampires had been greatly reduced, just as the Inhumans had said.
The Holy Court had easily taken over a few regions around the wilderness they were in.
After tasting the benefits, the Holy Court immediately tried to attack the vampires.
The vampires were weaker than they had expected!
The Holy Court advanced triumphantly, and they were about to enter the central city of the vampires. Who would have thought that just an hour ago, everything was developing in the opposite direction?
“Archbishop, we’ve discovered a powerful vampire aura fluctuation. Judging from the strength of the aura, it’s likely that we’ve encountered a Duke-tier vampire.”
“The enemy is heading towards the Holy Court. Priest Vera has gone to investigate.”
“Archbishop, we’ve lost contact with Vera’s team of priests. The enemy is heading in the direction of the Holy Court headquarters!”
“…”
“The High Priestess is leading the Holy Court to fight back.”
“The enemy is very strong, we might not be able to stop them.”
“Lord Bishop, we can consider retreating.”
The expressions of the few players from the Holy Court changed as they listened to the news that came in from the outside world.
An unknown vampire Duke?
Could it be…
The vampires from District 6?
About three hours ago, the players had learned about the news about the mission to become Territory Lord from the outside world. Soon, they also received the news that the Elders Council of District 8 had chosen to surrender to Fang Heng.
The players of the Holy Court had originally planned to loot a burning house, but they had never expected that they would encounter Fang Heng triggering a realm mission!
After spending a long time and effort, their attack on the vampire in alliance with the Federation had helped Fang Heng imperceptibly, making the vampires of District 8 choose to pledge loyalty to Fang Heng!
Who could tolerate this?
Even if they did, who would be able to bear such a huge loss?
After receiving the news of the surrender of District 8, the players immediately encouraged the Holy Court to speed up the elimination of the vampires.
