Chapter 899: Get Some Blood

The vampires felt that this was the only way out and they could only place their hopes on Fang Heng. With that, they followed Maica and charged out again.

The rest of the elders in the cave made their moves as well and reactivated the ritual.

“Lord Marquise,” The elder said, “The preparation for the ritual is not difficult, and it doesn’t require much blood. But we don’t have any blood at all now. We need to solve this problem as soon as possible before we can start the ritual.”

“Okay, leave it to me,” Fang Heng said as he walked to the entrance of the cave.

Previously, the battle between the vampires and the humans had been truly brutal, leaving behind patches of blood on the mountain path.

Fang Heng closed his eyes and sensed the blood energy.

He slowly raised his hand in the distance.

“Chi, chi, chi…” The blood flowing on the ground was drawn by Fang Heng’s perception and condensed into tiny blood beads, floating in the air.

They slowly gathered in front of Fang Heng.

The vampire elders from the Elders Council were shocked by this.

What a powerful blood affinity! To think he could affect blood from such a distance?

Even a Prince would find it difficult to achieve such a feat!

With that, the way the vampire elders looked at Fang Heng immediately changed.

The vampire Marquises who were fighting with the humans also noticed the small drops of blood rising from the ground and flying in Fang Heng’s direction. They were all surprised as well.

To think something like this could be done?

Maica was overjoyed.

He had seen Fang Heng draw blood from the enemy’s wound before, but he had never expected that the latter’s ability to control blood had already reached such a level!

He should have said so earlier! To think he had such a move!

Maica felt like he saw hope, and his spirits were lifted.

“Think of a way to open up their wounds!” Maica shouted and led the vampires to pounce on the players.

When the players saw the vampire’s counterattack, they immediately stepped forward to fight.

It was still fine at the start, but after a while, the players realized that something was not right.

The vampire’s attack methods began to change. They used blood blades to fight.

Once the players were accidentally cut by the vampire’s blood blades, blood would flow out of the wounds at an accelerated speed.

What was even more strange was that the blood that flowed out of the wound would condense into tiny blood beads, suspend in the air, and gather in the cave in the distance.

It was that person! He was controlling the blood!

The players immediately noticed Fang Heng who was standing at the entrance of the cave on the mountainside!

Who was he?

His strange ability to control blood made the players tremble in fear.

What made the players feel even more desperate was that the fusion Tyrant forms that they had lured away earlier had returned and were attacking them crazily in cooperation with the vampires.

Only then did everyone realize that the fusion Tyrant forms and the vampires were in cahoots!

“Hahahaha! How do you feel? Isn’t it disgusting?” Maica felt like he had gotten his revenge, so he even took the time to mock the players, “The meaning of human existence is to be sucked dry of blood! Thank you for your efforts in reviving the glory of the vampire!”

Maica seemed to have a talent for mocking. For a time, many players who wanted to retreat were enraged.

“You still haven’t won! Why are you smiling like an idiot? You fool!”

Retreat? Even if they retreated, they had to make this despicable vampire pay a price first.

The morale of the vampires was greatly boosted.

They had been suppressed by a large number of players just now, but now with the help of the fusion Tyrant forms, they had the upper hand!

This advantage was only temporary though.

Maica noticed that more and more humans were gathering in the dense forest below the mountain. They should be people from the Federation.

The vampires did not let their victory get to their heads. They deliberately provoked the humans and tried to cut wounds on the latter to help the vampire elders in the cave complete the ritual quickly.

In the forest below the mountain, two teams from the Federation’s operations department immediately rushed over to provide support after receiving the emergency order. They exchanged information with Zhang Yuanxing’s team.

Zhang Yuanxing had been observing the situation near the cave with his binoculars.

The Federation’s reinforcements were almost ready. In another five minutes, all operation department’s troops would be assembled except for the elite regiments of the Federation’s Inspection Bureau.

However, what was going on with the Tyrant forms that appeared out of the blue? Not only were they powerful, but they also seemed to be on the side of the vampires.

Zhang Yuanxing was puzzled. He turned to look at the advisor from the Central Federation, Old Black, who had just joined the team.

Old Black noticed Zhang Yuanxing’s gaze, and explained, “They are special fusion creatures developed by the vampire. The specific information is unknown, but they are very difficult to deal with. I suggest we wait for the inspection team to come and deal with them.”

“Yes,” Zhang Yuanxing nodded.

So they were a fusion of vampires and zombies… No wonder they were so difficult to deal with.

“Commander, emergency report.”

“Speak!”

A soldier walked to Zhang Yuanxing’s side and whispered, “News from area A2891. A vampire Duke has forcefully entered the teleportation gate and is coming our way. She will arrive in about five minutes.”

A vampire Duke?

Zhang Yuanxing felt that this was a thorny problem.

Their team wasn’t confident in dealing with a high-tier Duke. They needed the help of the inspection team.

“We’ll bide our time for now. Why haven’t the people from the Inspection Bureau arrived yet?”

“Roger! The inspection team has already received news about the vampire Duke and is on the way. The superiors told us to stay where we are and wait for orders.”

Zhang Yuanxing nodded.

They just had to bear with it a little longer, and the reinforcements would be here soon!

At the entrance of the cave, blood condensed in front of Fang Heng under his control. Then, the blood poured into the altar’s blood pool in the cave through the ritual.

The longer the blood was exposed to the air, the thinner the power it contained.

However, most of the blood came from the players from intermediate games. Their various physical abilities had been enhanced by the games, and the energy contained in their blood was dozens of times higher than that of ordinary people.

Totaling up the loss and enhancements, the power in the blood was enough to complete the heart transfer ritual.

“It should be enough now!” Fang Heng estimated that he had gotten a lot of blood, so he turned around and returned to the cave.

“Lord Marquis, the ceremony will be done soon. Please wait a little longer,” Two elders from the Elders Council were doing their best to operate the ritual.

More than half of Duke Zhao Tai’s body was soaked in the blood pool.

Under the influence of the magic array ritual, the heart of the Vampire King attached to Zhao Tai’s body beat wildly.

The mercenary player who had been following Old Black earlier quietly walked up and whispered in Fang Heng’s ear, “Brother, Old Black told me to tell you that the vampire Duke Nan has come out of the time passage and is approaching us. Be careful.”
