Chapter 681: Pillar of Light

“Bang Bang Bang!! Bang Bang Bang Bang!!”
Immediately after, countless bats broke through the windows and rushed into the building.
In the blink of an eye, all the players in the building were surrounded by the vampires.
All the players’ expressions changed drastically.
They would definitely not be able to resist being surrounded by so many vampires even if the vampires were weakened by the magic array.
The vampires had no intention of making a move.
Venerate took half a step forward and knelt on one knee, he reported respectfully, “Lord Marquis, a large number of the Holy Court’s holy cast knights have appeared in the city. Affected by the alchemy magic array in the city, our abilities have been greatly weakened. We might not be able to defend against them.”
Marquis!!
This player was actually the Marquis of the vampires!
All the players looked at this mysterious man wearing a mask once again.
Chu Yan stared at Fang Heng.
He went into deep thought.
Marquis of the vampires… He was the Marquis of the vampires…
Did this mean that he was the one who started this sneak attack against the vampires?
“Yes, I understand.”
Fang Heng withdrew his gaze from the pillar of light outside the window and looked back at Chu Yan.
“Since we are all players, I can spare your lives.”
Chu Yan took a deep breath.
“I will immediately bring my people offline. I guarantee with my life that we will not say a word to the outside world. In the future, if you need us…”
“You guys stay here and wait for me to come back.”
After saying this, Fang Heng turned to look at the vampires behind him.
“Let’s go.”
Without saying another word, Fang Heng transformed into his bat form and flew down with the vampires.
Seeing Fang Heng leave the building with the vampires, the players felt relieved to be spared alive.
A player walked to Chu Yan’s side and asked, “Commander, what should we do now?”
“Wait here and don’t tell anyone what you saw here. Also, do everything you can to secretly investigate his identity. Don’t leak the information to anyone.”
“Okay, I know what to do now, Commander.”
Chu Yan took a deep breath.
He only noticed now that his back was drenched in cold sweat because he was too nervous before.
When he was facing the mysterious person, the mental pressure he had to bear was too great.
That person…
What did he want to do?
Chu Yan had a very bad feeling. He walked out of the window and looked outside.
Outside the window, the masked man led a large number of vampires and rushed toward the shining pillar of light.
The Holy Court had already activated the magic array built on the entire city.
The vampires in Victoria City were bound to die.
Could it be that he wanted to forcefully destroy the central array that the Holy Court had secretly set up for more than ten years?
It was too whimsical…
Moreover, the Holy Court had already asked for help from the nearby areas. In recent years, the strength that the Holy Court had secretly accumulated in the area would completely erupt tonight.
As for the vampires?
Through his information channel, he did not know that there were any vampires from other regions coming to support him.
Chu Yan frowned. He turned his head and asked, “Are there any new developments in the forum?”
“President, the forum is currently discussing the great uprising of the vampires in Victoria City and the mysterious pillar of light and magic array that appeared in the entire Victoria City. There is no other relevant news.”
This was what Chu Yan could not understand the most.
Up until now, other than Victoria City, there was no movement from the vampires in the other regions.
In the world of the Vampire apocalypse, there were far more players who supported the vampires than players from the Holy Court faction.
If there was even the slightest movement from the vampires, the entire forum would be filled with bloodshed.
But up until now, other than the vampires’ riot in Victoria City, the vampires in the other regions were extremely quiet.
Even the Alta clan didn’t send any news of reinforcements.
Why?
Could it be…
After eliminating many impossibilities, Chu Yan came up with a strange answer.
Could it be that this mysterious person had a bad relationship with the vampires?
…
Fang Heng led the group of vampires behind him and rushed towards the distant pillar of light.
Weakening the magic array?
It could weaken the strength of all the vampires in Victoria City.
Since that was the case, he would destroy all the magic arrays at once.
[Hint: You have entered the restricted area of the high-intensity magic array. In this area, your bat form cannot be used for the time being.]
[Hint: In this area, your holy ability will be increased by 20%.]
A game hint appeared.
Fang Heng and the many vampires behind him returned to their human forms once again.
In front of them was a large villa area. A pillar of light shot up from the back of the villa area.
The people of the Holy Court were guarding the entrance early in the morning, putting on a battle stance.
Venerate reminded him in a low voice, “Marquis, we have discovered that a large number of the Holy Court’s follow-up reinforcements are rushing over. Should we especially open the teleportation passage and seek help from the Elders Council?”
Fang Heng shook his head.
After taking control of the vampires in Victoria City, in order to prevent trouble, Fang Heng immediately closed the teleportation passage to the outside of Victoria City.
At that time, Fang Heng’s thinking was simple.
What if after opening the passage, another vampire came to fight with him for power?
Since things had developed to this point, there was no need to open the passage.
“No need,” Fang Heng said. He glanced at the two rows of holy cast knights standing in front of him and said in a deep voice, “Take care of them.”
“Understood!”
Fang Heng took out an iron rod from his backpack and took the lead to rush forward.
The two holy cast knights at the front blocked Fang Heng from the left and right.
“Humph!”
Fang Heng snorted in disdain. He raised the iron rod in his hand and smashed it forward.
The shadows of the holy light armor appeared in front of the two holy cast knights’ chests.
“Dong!!”
The light armor on their chests started to crack, and the two of them were once again sent flying by the iron rod!
Fang Heng frowned.
The holy cast knights’ abilities were slightly enhanced by the stimulation of the magic array.
Meanwhile, his attribute was slightly weakened.
One was enhanced, and the other was weakened. He could not break the holy cast knights’ armor in one strike and make them lose their ability to fight like before.
Taking advantage of Fang Heng being obstructed for a moment, the surrounding holy cast knights surrounded Fang Heng once again.
Troublesome!
Fang Heng secretly exclaimed in his heart.
The number of vampires was enough to crush the holy cast knights, but their strength was also greatly suppressed by the magic array. For a moment, they were unable to break through the interception of the holy cast knights at the periphery.
If this went on, it would be endless. It would be a waste of time.
Regardless of them, he should first destroy the pillar of light.
Fang Heng thought.
Swoosh!
Relying on the skill effect of the holy weapon’s teleportation, Fang Heng flashed to the side and quickly went through the gaps between the holy cast knights.
The four holy cast knights were momentarily shaken by Fang Heng.
By the time they reacted, Fang Heng had already appeared behind them.
The knights wanted to continue chasing after them, but the dense horde of vampires behind them came up and tightly entangled them.
Fang Heng no longer paid attention to the holy cast knights. Relying on the optimization effect of the undying transformation, he quickly dashed toward a large building that had a pillar of light rising behind it.
