Chapter 596 Tier 7
Nate was also a little hesitant.
Due to some special restrictions, the Prince of vampires was in hibernation mode most of the time. Especially after entering this world, the Prince’s strength was greatly affected.
He only had less than three hours to wake up every month.
Once he was awakened and entered combat mode, the Prince’s strength and lifespan would be permanently reduced.
Not only that, the awakening also required the high-tier vampires to sacrifice their lives.
Nate needed to assess the current situation and make a decision on whether or not to awaken the Prince of vampires.
“Fang Heng!” At this moment, Ji Qiubei, who was at the side, could not help but say in a deep voice, “It must be Fang Heng!”
Ji Qiubei was very sure!
Other than Fang Heng, there was no one else who could do this!
Not long ago, after escaping from the branch of the vampires, Ji Qiubei immediately rushed back to the headquarters to inform the Marquis of the vampires, telling him the whole story of how he was attacked by Fang Heng in the branch.
After listening to Ji Qiubei’s narration, the vampires had already tacitly accepted Fang Heng as a man courting death.
One-on-one fight with the Duke of the vampires?
Wasn’t he courting death?
“It can’t be him.” Nate shook his head. “That group of Inhumans can’t have that kind of strength, and I know Bellamy’s strength. Fang Heng can’t escape from her hands.”
Ji Qiubei was speechless.
This group of vampires were either stupid, impulsive, stubborn, or had a problem with their brains.
Ji Qiubei gritted his teeth and could only take a step back, he tried to persuade him again, “Duke Nate! Even if Fang Heng didn’t do it, it was the Federation’s player forces who destroyed the vampires’ barrier. We can’t give them time to catch their breath. Since the Federation is now gathered together, we need to wake up the Prince and destroy the Federation’s main force in one go.”
Nate did not speak. He closed his eyes and pondered.
“Duke Nate! We have been preparing for this for years. We can’t make any more mistakes.”
After hesitating for a while, Nate opened his eyes and made a decision.
“You’re right. We don’t need to take any risks. Let’s begin the ritual.”
“Yes!”
“Oro, you’ll be presiding over the ritual this time. I’ll bring some people over to personally meet those Inhumans from the Wasteland World. If their strength is not worthy of the Prince’s help, then we’ll just interrupt the ritual.”
Oro knelt on one knee respectfully and said with his head lowered, “I understand, Lord Duke.”
After Nate said that, he waved his hand forward.
Several blood-colored magic arrays appeared out of thin air.
Nate took the lead and stepped into the magic arrays. He disappeared from the hall in a flash.
The magic arrays were still standing in place.
The three Marquis of the vampires nodded to each other. They also followed Nate into the magic arrays and disappeared.
Then, the blood puppets and a large number of high-tier vampires entered the magic arrays as well.
After Nate left, Oro slowly stood up.
He looked around and waved at the few high-tier vampires.
“Let’s begin the sacrificial ritual.”
More than ten vampires followed Oro’s instructions and walked to the front of the altar to form a circle. Under Oro’s guidance, they raised their right hand and slit their wrists.
Scarlet blood continuously flowed down their wrists and dripped onto the ground.
“Drip… drip…”
The blood that dripped onto the ground gradually condensed into a blood-red magic array.
The ground began to sink slightly.
A dark-red coffin gradually floated up from the floor.
It was unknown when it began, but the battlefield was enveloped by a red cloud.
The air was filled with the faint smell of blood.
After destroying the vampires’ barrier, Fang Heng did not immediately sneak into the vampires’ hideout. Instead, he returned with Hila’s tissue samples and met up with Chen Yu’s branch team.
They followed the right rear of the Northern Federation’s main force and slowly moved toward the vampires’ headquarters.
In the passenger seat, Fang Heng poked his head out of the truck window and looked towards the distant sky.
At the end of their line of sight, they could vaguely see a red pillar of light rising into the sky in the direction of the vampires’ headquarters.
At the front of the group, due to the destruction of the barrier, the vampires were greatly stimulated. They swarmed towards the Federation players.
“Hey, what’s going on with the sky?”
Seeing the abnormal phenomenon in the sky, Zhong Lei faintly felt a little uneasy.
“Oh no, Fang Heng, this abnormal phenomenon is caused by the Prince of vampires.”
In the passenger seat, Zhao Dongyang’s face was a little pale. “The vampires are trying to wake the Prince.”
Prince?
Was it a life form of a higher tier than the Duke of vampires?
Everyone turned around and looked at Zhao Dongyang “I didn’t expect Night Owl to be able to persuade the Prince of vampires to enter District 7…”
Zhao Dongyang continued to explain, “In the background of the world of the vampires, the vampires are a cursed race. Vampires with the bloodline of the Prince are all born with a curse.”
“From the moment of birth, as the strength of the Prince’s control gradually increased, the strength of the curse also became stronger.”
“Most of the time, after adulthood, the Prince of the vampires has been in a state to resist the erosion of the strength of the curse. He can only be active for a few days within a year.”
Chen Yu frowned when he heard what Zhao Dongyang said. He could not help but ask, “Zhao Dongyang, how strong is the combat strength of a Prince-tier vampire?”
“Very strong. I can’t give a specific assessment. Even in the Vampire Apocalypse, the Prince of the vampires has never really joined the battle. Their existence is more of a deterrent to balance the conflicts between the major vampire clans.”
Zhao Dongyang thought for a moment, then, he continued to add, “Vampire Apocalypse is the game world with the highest combat strength among the three major elementary games. The combat strength of a Duke-level vampire is already equivalent to that of Tier 6 mutated zombie. So, I think the Prince should have the combat strength of Tier 7.”
Tier 7?
Chen Yu’s face darkened.
This was too ridiculous!
He really wanted to curse now.
If the Prince was already at Tier 7, what was the point of playing?!
The opponent had revealed their trump card and it was akin to a huge explosion!
This was unfair!
How could the Vampire Apocalypse have such a powerful weapon as a Tier 7 creature?
Chen Yu’s face was also a little ugly.
The current combat strength of the Federation in District 7 could only deal with a Tier 5 creature. How could they jump to Tier 7 without even the appearance of a Tier 6?
This was a little unreasonable.
“The revival of the Prince of the vampires will take some time, right?”
“Yes, according to the Book of Enoch, the awakening of the Prince will require some kind of ritual that will last for a period of time.”
Chen Yu asked in a deep voice, “If we can find a way to interrupt their ongoing ritual, can we stop the Prince’s revival?”
“It’s useless. Doing so will indeed affect a portion of the Prince’s strength and his final lifespan. However, the Prince will still be awakened by the stimulation from the outside world. Doing so will only aggravate him even more.”
“Is there no way to stop it?”
“There’s really no way.”
Zhao Dongyang shook his head.
The combat power of the world of the vampires was simply unreasonable!
