1134 Our Own People
“Boom!! Boom Boom Boom!!”
The moment the black spike came into contact with his blood, it instantly caused a second explosion!
Fang Heng gritted his teeth and relied on the powerful recovery ability of his ‘undying body’ to resist the damage!
Eh?
What was going on?
Fang Heng was surprised to find that a large part of the black spikes that had pierced his body had melted away after a few consecutive explosions.
The two blackthorn clones seemed to have no self-consciousness as they struggled to pull out the spikes from Fang Heng’s body.
“Chi Chi Chi…”
The blood-stained black spikes had melted a lot compared to before, and the spikes were still emitting a greenish-gray smoke.
Fang Heng’s pupils shrank when he saw the blood on the blackthorns.
Was it blood?
That’s right!
He had seen a similar scene at the underground altar.
The blood of the vampires was effective against the cave-dwelling beasts, and now it was surprisingly effective against the barbarians!
“Swoosh!”
Taking advantage of Fang Heng’s dazed state, several of the blackthorn clones seemed to have determined that Fang Heng had lost his ability to fight. They quickly circled around him and launched a rapid attack toward the distant passage!
Terrible!
They wanted to escape!
Fang Heng’s heart sank. He quickly raised the finger of his right hand and pointed forward!
“Woosh! Whoosh Whoosh!!”
The blood that had seeped out from the wound earlier was controlled by Fang Heng’s mental power. It condensed into several blood beads in the air and flew toward the blackthorn clones!
“Thump! Thump thump!!”
It was effective!
The blood droplets were like bullets as they bombarded the blackthorn clones, causing deep dents to appear on the crystallized surface!
The nearest three blackthorn clones were sent flying by the blood beads and slammed into the stone walls on both sides of the passage.
The dents on their bodies, which were made by the blood, seemed to be corroded and emitted green smoke.
Compared to the explosive damage caused by the blackthorn, the damage caused by the blood seemed to be more difficult to recover!
F*ck!
Seeing this, Fang Heng gritted his teeth.
The three blackthorn clones at the front had blocked the majority of the damage, while the remaining one took the opportunity to escape, quickly disappearing into the depths of the tunnel.
Fang Heng took a deep breath and lifted the purple essence long blade again.
The long blade grazed his palm and was stained with his blood.
“Again.”
Fang Heng snorted and dashed forward again.
The three blackthorn clones also quickly recovered their combat power and once again charged toward Fang Heng.
One against three, it was a chaotic battle!
Fang Heng felt helpless.
Blood and purple essence could produce an effect greater than one plus one, but it was still unable to completely eliminate the blackthorn clones.
Concerned about the safety of Tang Mingyue and the Empire’s treasures, Fang Heng engaged in combat with the blackthorn clones. After a few rounds of fighting, he realized he couldn’t defeat all of them so he decided to fight the blackthorn clones while rushing toward the inner passage.
Not far behind the tunnel, Ed led his team of players and hurriedly chased after them.
They had already fallen into a misunderstanding and thought that the undead feudal lord Fang Heng was a powerful NPC.
Seeing Fang Heng running off to look for Her Highness Mingyue alone, and seeing the blackthorn clones chasing after Fang Heng, Ed decisively abandoned the Empire’s players and led the player team to help.
As they ran along the tunnel, they soon heard the sounds of explosions coming from ahead.
When they saw the figure in front of the passage, they couldn’t help but slow down.
Ed’s party members were extremely surprised.
Necromancy mage?
Why did he go up and fight?
Moreover, his close combat strength was shocking.
He was actually able to simultaneously deal with three blackthorn clones without being at a disadvantage!
“What should we do now, Captain?” asked Sarwen who turned his head o look at him.
“Go up and help!”
Ed nodded and shouted at Fang Heng, “Lord Fang Heng! We are on the same side! We’re here to help!”
Without waiting for Fang Heng’s reaction, Ed waved his hand and shouted, “Go, help him!”
Not far away, Fang Heng was struggling with the blackthorn clones when he noticed the sound of hurried footsteps coming from the back of the passage.
Seeing that it was Ed’s team of players, Fang Heng was thinking of countermeasures.
He judged that Ed and the others had most likely triggered a hostile mission when they were snatching the Empire’s resources.
What a coincidence!
It just so happened that this group of people had triggered the mission.
After all, Ed and his men had learned their lesson when they joined forces with the barbarians.
Fang Heng had made up his mind and was about to get rid of this group of players first. Before he could do anything, he suddenly heard Ed shouting ‘we’re on the same side’ at him.
Ah?
What was going on?
Who was on his side?
Did he want to play tricks?
Fang Heng was stunned.
He had never expected Ed and the others to cast spells on the spot without a second word, and deal with the blackthorn clones together.
Was this group of people for real?
Fang Heng didn’t know what to do for a while.
So, Ed and his gang really weren’t enemies this time?
Ed’s party consisted of almost all mages, and in a flash, multicolored magic poured toward the blackthorn clones.
The blackthorn clones’ magic resistance was extremely low, and after receiving the spell’s effect, their speed was instantly reduced.
“Swamp trap!”
The three mages cast quagmire spells at the same time, covering the passage with a thick layer of quagmire!
Temporarily weakening the control of the three blackthorn clones, Ed took the opportunity to approach Fang Heng.
“Lord Fang Heng, I have understood the situation. What happened between us was a misunderstanding. In fact, we have communicated with each other through our special channels. We have reached an agreement with your good friend. Now, we are friends and partners.”
Huh?
Good friend? Partners?
Who was he talking about?
Mo Jiawei?
Or Mingyue? Sandy?
Fang Heng looked at Ed with a puzzled expression, thinking that this guy must have made a mistake.
As Fang Heng was still wearing the mask, Ed couldn’t see his puzzled expression. He only saw that Fang Heng was a little hesitant.
His hesitation was normal to Ed.
He was afraid that Fang Heng would be more hostile if he got too close to him, so he kept a distance from him and continued to nod, “Lord Fang Heng, I know that you’re still wary of me. There’s no need to doubt me. If you still don’t believe me, please help me tell that friend of yours that I already know about ‘Project Elegy’ of the Central Federation and am very willing to work with them.”
Fang Heng was even more puzzled after hearing that.
What?
What the hell is Project Elegy?
And it’s related to the Central Federation?
Was this fake?
Just by hearing this unknown name, it sounded like something Sandy would do.
Fang Heng’s brain was working at full speed.
Let’s not care about that for now.
It just so happened that he had too many troublesome matters on hand.
From the looks of it, the other party most likely treated him as a game character.
Who cares about Project Elegy?
He could use them first!
The strength of this group of players wasn’t weak, and they were able to restrain the three blackthorn clones for a short period of time.
It was clear that they had been slacking off in the Empire’s team.
Fang Heng made a quick deduction.
“Fine, I will help you convey your message. I hope you can prove your sincerity, and think of a way to stop these blackthorn clones.”
Seeing that Fang Heng had agreed, Ed was even more convinced of Fang Heng’s identity without a doubt. He immediately made a battle gesture to his team.
