Chapter 771: The Scapegoat


Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio


Fang Heng walked to the stone statue at the side and suddenly raised his hand and threw a punch forward.


“Bang!”


The stone statue shattered.


Fang Heng explained, “No, I just felt that this stone statue was a little uncomfortable.”


The few Marquises of the vampires looked at each other and felt that it was strange.


Compared to before, they realized that the vampire aura on Fang Heng’s body seemed to be more restrained.


“It seems that there’s nothing here. There’s only one bas.e.m.e.nt left that hasn’t been searched yet. Let’s continue.”


Fang Heng said as he took the lead and walked forward.


His pupils reflected a row of game hints.


Skill-Marquis-level vampire bloodline (Level 1).

Skill description: By relying on the strength of the bloodline, the player can enter the bat form. Under this form, the player can have a faster flying speed.


Fang Heng quickly scanned the skill description.


The available skills did not increase, but the attribute once again received an explosive increase!


As long as he continued to absorb all the blood in the Angetas blood pool, once the skill level was full, he could receive a bonus of maximum 60 points of agility!


It was ten times the initial amount of an ordinary player!


Absorb! Continue to absorb Angeta’s blood! Increase the skill level!


Would there be a higher level after the Marquis level?


Fang Heng’s heart skipped a beat. He continued to control the zombie clones in the Angetas Cave to absorb the nutrients from the blood pool!



In the Angetas Cave, the vampires were still in shock.


Suddenly, Joel’s heart skipped a beat.


Not good!


Angetas became restless again!


This time, its restlessness was even more terrifying than before!


The entire ancient tree Angetas began to shake crazily again. Large patches of leaves turned from green to yellow and fell from the tree trunk onto the ground!


It was withering at a speed visible to the naked eye!


“Quick! Unlock the seal!”


Joel suddenly had a thought and immediately shouted at the vampires, “How much longer do we need?!”


“Ten minutes. Unlocking the seal will take ten minutes.”


Looking at the state of Angetas, it could not last five minutes, let alone ten minutes!


Joel’s forehead was covered in cold sweat. He looked at Angetas in front of him and kept praying in his heart, hoping that Angetas could recover quickly.


A full six minutes pa.s.sed.


Joel watched Angetas gradually wither and large sections of dead branches fell from Angetas.


Compared to ten minutes ago, Angetas was several times smaller, and its aura was more than ten times weaker.


Vampires were running around in disorder in the cave.


The surrounding vampires who were responsible for guarding the cave had no way out. They could only watch helplessly as Angetas grew weaker and weaker.


Hum…


Angetas completely lost its l.u.s.ter and became dark.


Then, everything seemed to have quieted down again.


Joel looked at everything with a pale face.


A high-tier vampire hurriedly ran in from the entrance of the cave and shouted, “Earl Joel, the seal has been lifted. We have notified the Elders Council as soon as possible…”


Lin Nuo also followed him into the Angetas Cave to check.


After taking over the role of guarding Angetas, he immediately came over to check after receiving the news that Angetas was in danger.


“This…”


Everything in front of him stunned Lin Nuo.


He could not imagine how the originally lush Angetas had become like this in the blink of an eye.


Why was it like this?!


The Angetas Cave had clearly been sealed, so why was it still heavily damaged?!


Was it done by the demon hunters?!


Could they have such an ability??


Impossible!


What went wrong?!


Lin Nuo looked at Joel and asked, “What happened?!”


Joel’s face was as pale as a ghost. He didn’t know what had happened either!


Joel’s throat rolled, and he was about to speak when his eyelids twitched.


“Watch out!!!”


“Boom!! Boom Boom Boom!!”


In the next moment, a series of explosions exploded from the inside of the blood pool!


Blood splattered everywhere!


The violent explosion directly affected the entire cave.


The vampires dodged the blood splattered by the explosion one after another, and the explosion lasted for half a minute before it gradually stopped.


The three elders of the Elders Council also rushed over immediately after hearing that something was wrong with Angetas.


When they arrived, they only saw the shattered rock cave and the dead Angetas.


When the three elders saw this, their expressions changed drastically!


Yates immediately transformed into his bat form and went forward to check Angetas’ condition.


Abel’s face was ashen as he looked around the people in the rock cave. Finally, his gaze stopped on Lin Nuo. “Can anyone tell me what happened here?”


No one could answer Abel’s question.


After the arbitration elder, Yates, checked the condition of Angetas, he stood up again and turned back to look at Abel.


“Angetas was seriously injured.”


Abel looked at Lin Nuo angrily. “What the h.e.l.l is going on? What did you do to Angetas?”


Lin Nuo opened his mouth, and his mind went blank.


“I, I didn’t do anything.”


He was also confused. He was only less than two minutes earlier than Yates!


He didn’t know anything at all!


Oh no!


In the next moment, Lin Nuo suddenly realized that he was in trouble.


Angetas was severely injured out of the blue. As the person in charge of the protection of Angetas, he would be held responsible for whatever happened to Angetas.


He was even the one who proposed to temporarily seal off Angetas Cave!


Now that something had happened to Angetas, he was going to be the scapegoat to bear the wrath of the entire vampire population.


For a moment, the atmosphere in the entire cave froze.


Yates walked back after inspecting Angetas in detail. He turned his head and whispered a few words into the ear of the arbitration elder, Abel.


Abel’s face turned even paler.


“Take him away first. The Elders Council will interrogate him personally later!”
