935 Bind
District 8 of the Zombie Apocalypse,
In the cave of Angetas at the bottom of the prison, a huge magic array surrounded the Vampire King’s coffin in the center.
The runes of the magic array even spread over the coffin.
The vampires fused their powers into the magic array.
Angetas bloomed with red stars, constantly sending power into the magic array.
The Vampire King’s coffin was emitting a red glow as well.
Fang Heng stood beside the Vampire King’s coffin. His eyes were closed as his hand was stretched out and pressing on the coffin.
A dark rune appeared on his palm. Blood seeped out from the rune and was absorbed by the coffin.
Fang Heng could feel that the power was constantly merging with his body from the coffin, and his body’s perception was also gradually fusing with the coffin.
He didn’t notice that the mark on the back of his hand had already appeared clearly, emitting a faint light.
At the same time, the bottom of the coffin was gradually carved with the same rune mark.
Suddenly, Fang Heng’s eyes flew open.
Lines of game hints appeared on his retina.
[Hint: After Angetas’s energy stimulation, you have sacrificed 13 different vampire holy weapons and successfully completed the ritual. You have thus obtained complete control over the Vampire King’s coffin.]
[Hint: Currently, the player has sacrificed a total of 19 of the vampire’s Thirteen Holy Artifacts.]
[Hint: The Vampire King’s coffin is an ancient wonder and can not be placed in the backpack. Some skills will take effect immediately after binding.]
[Hint: The player’s current world, District 8 of the Zombie Apocalypse, has received a small increase in rating.]
[Item: Vampire King’s Coffin]
[Tier: An ancient wonder (when placed in any world, it can greatly improve the adaptability of the vampires in that world, and improve the world rating)]
[Description: A coffin created after the birth of the Vampire King by fusing the initial source of life. It possesses great power.]
[Additional Skill 1: King’s Afterimages]
[Description: Summon blood afterimages near the Vampire King’s coffin to fight for you (click here for more details).]
[Additional Skill 2: Slumber (bound to player, passive effect)]
[Description: The skill has currently been bound to the player. After the player dies, the player’s soul will be resurrected in the coffin. (This power can cross normal world boundaries. The effect can be blocked by special powers. The player can cancel the passive effect of the skill on his own accord.)]
[Additional Skill 3: Bloodline]
[Description: By absorbing blood through the blood coffin, the bloodline can be refined. The bloodline can at most be upgraded to the highest Vampire King level (the Vampire King bloodline is exclusive. If there are others with the Vampire King bloodline existing, the advancement of the Vampire King bloodline can not be completed).]
[Additional Skill 4: King’s Will (passive effect activated)]
[Description: Passive effect after binding. All basic attributes of the player +20, blood affinity +60. The player can use all skills attached to the vampire’s Thirteen Holy Artifacts and improve their final effects by 30%. For every additional vampire’s holy weapon sacrificed, base attribute +0.5 and blood affinity +5 will be obtained (Currently, 6 additional holy weapons of the vampires have been bound)]
[Additional Skill 5: ??? (Can be activated through a mission or after mastering certain academic skills).]
[Description: There are mysterious patterns at the bottom of the coffin. You may be able to decipher the words by studying these patterns or asking the Elder Council for help.]
[Additional Skill 6: ??? (Can be activated through a mission or after mastering certain academic skills).]
[Description: You can feel that the coffin seems to have a mysterious power. After binding the coffin completely, you can try to explore or activate this power.]
Fang Heng let out a long breath and clenched his fist lightly.
The familiar sense of strength returned, and it was even slightly stronger than before.
Most of the skills attached to the vampire’s holy weapons were extremely useful. After obtaining the binding authority, these skills could now be used again.
In addition, the coffin’s Slumber skill was quite good. It was equivalent to resurrection. Moreover, it could be used across worlds, which was equivalent to an additional passive life-saving skill.
Of course, this skill was still quite unstable.
Fang Heng estimated that the effect of Slumber was an enhanced version of Angetas’s resurrection. Although it was strong, there was still a chance that he would be affected by other powers in the middle of his resurrection.
For example, necromancy.
All the vampires at the side looked at Fang Heng nervously.
Hayez carefully took two steps forward and asked, “Your Majesty, are you feeling well?”
“Not bad. The ritual was very successful,” Fang Heng retracted his hand from the coffin and turned back to look at Hayez, “Have you studied the runes at the bottom of the coffin?”
“We’re trying to decipher the text,” Hayez replied, very focused, “We’ve analyzed it with the ancient books left by the Elder Council. We’ve already made some progress, but we’re short-handed, and there aren’t many descendants who have learned the ancient text. It’ll probably take some time, but I believe we’ll completely decipher them soon.”
“Hayez, there are others besides us who are also searching for a way to break the vampire’s curse. We have to speed up.”
“Yes, my Lord,” Hayez nodded with a grave expression.
Fang Heng nodded and continued, “Also, the Vampire King’s coffin has the ability to refine bloodlines. Did you know about this?”
“Yes, according to the ancient records, Angetas can only raise the bloodline to the Prince tier. After that, the only way to raise the bloodline to the King tier is through the coffin, but… ” Hayez hesitated for a moment, “Your Majesty, the bloodline curse on Duke tier is already very terrifying. Before the curse is completely lifted, the Elder Council does not recommend that you upgrade your bloodline power to the Prince tier.”
“It’s fine. Tell me how I can improve my bloodline as soon as possible.”
“Yes,” By now, Hayez was completely convinced of Fang Heng’s abilities. He would not object to Fang Heng’s decisions, so he immediately said, “It’s the same way that Angetas gathers blood pools to promote the bloodline. The condensation of the bloodline requires a large amount of blood as raw material. The blood can be condensed by pouring fresh blood into the coffin. When the blood has been condensed to a certain degree, the blood pool can be formed inside the coffin.”
After some thought, Hayez added, “Human blood is the most suitable for creating a blood pool. Other than humans, the blood of other living creatures has some effect, though slightly weakened. In addition, the stronger the living creature, the more power the blood contains.”
Fang Heng lowered his head and pondered after hearing what Hayez said.
It seemed that he had to find a way to get more blood.
Mo Jiawei, who was watching from the side, could not help but grin when he heard Hayez’s words, “Alright, let’s do a mass blood donation. We’ll draw a few tubes of blood from those in the few large districts. Other than this, the beast blood from the Wasteland can also be used. However, the price of the beast blood has inflated after our last wave of purchases. I’m afraid that the amount will be much less if we buy again.”
“Your Majesty,” Hayez shook his head, “The amount of blood required to improve your bloodline is extremely large. The Elder Council has made a preliminary estimate. Even if we exterminate all the humans in our world, I’m afraid it will be difficult for your bloodline to reach the Prince tier.”
