Sandy continued, “I’ve seen many descriptions of ghouls in the books of the Holy Court, as well as some imaginary pictures. Their descriptions are also a little magical, and some of them are different from each other. However, there is one thing that their descriptions are very similar to your current Licker.”

“The biggest difference is the color of their bodies and the special details on their heads.”

While speaking, Sandy took out a paintbrush from somewhere on his body and walked to the Licker in front of Fang Heng.

“With a little bit of artistic processing, I’ll be able to finish it very soon. It’s true. The people of the Holy Court have never seen a ghoul before. Even if they did, they wouldn’t be able to tell the difference.”

Sandy turned to look at Fang Heng, his eyes shining with artistic brilliance. “Fang Heng, I need a special pigment in large amounts! The sooner the better!”

“Okay.”

Fang Heng decided to give it a try.

“I got it. I’ll arrange it for you immediately.”

…

At the headquarters of the Holy Court in Victoria City.

In the prayer hall, the believers came and went, constantly informing the bishop of what had happened in the outside world.

“Bishop, the branch node of Magic Array No. 7 has been destroyed.”

“Bishop, the operation of the magic array has been confirmed to be weakened…”

“Team No. 2 has successfully defeated the vampires.”

“The vampires have begun to retreat and gather in the central area of the city…”

Chen Li listened to his subordinate’s report and fell into deep thought.

It was the branch structure of Magic Array No. 7…

Previously, the violent explosion at the stone pillar of the branch structure point of the magic array was clearly felt by even him in the headquarters.

It was too strange.

The branch nodes had been specially arranged. Six of them had yet to be completely completed and lacked protection, but the remaining six nodes had already been completed.

Node No. 7 was one of the most well-arranged nodes.

In theory, it was impossible for the vampires to have the ability to directly defeat the seventh branch stronghold.

Even the Marquis of the vampires could not do it himself.

This was unreasonable!

Chen Li frowned.

Which step did he miscalculate?

Chen Li really wanted to go to the branch and see what was happening there, but he still needed to control the magic array as a whole, so he had no time to spare.

“Bishop, there’s news from the front. Several branches of the vampires in the area have completely fallen. Our people are heading to the vampire building in the center of the city to meet up and destroy the passage.”

“The vampires gathering in the air have started to disperse in batches. They are attacking the facilities in the entire Victoria City area.”

“What did you say?”

Chen Li suddenly turned to look at the believer behind him and confirmed, “The vampires didn’t return to the central building?”

“Yes, Lord Bishop.”

So strange?

Could there be a conspiracy?

Chen Li’s heart sank.

Eleanor, the judge of the Holy Court, who had just walked into the prayer hall, was equally puzzled.

“Lord Bishop, only a small number of vampires have returned to the central building of the city. In addition, I have another piece of news for you.”

“Yes, what?”

“According to the information I received from the Inhumans, the teleportation passage of the vampires in the city is closed. Therefore, no vampires have come to support the city,” Eleanor said in a deep voice. “If the news is true, we believe that the building of the vampires is almost empty.”

Chen Li felt an indescribable strange feeling in his heart.

What was this?

The vampires did not guard the central building of the vampires, nor did they open the teleportation passage to seek help. Instead, they scattered around the city and destroyed the buildings and facilities.

Eleanor said, “Bishop, do you think this is a trap?”

A trap?!

Chen Li raised his head and looked at Eleanor.

He thought that this was a 100% victory, but suddenly, Chen Li felt that things were not as simple as he thought.

The actions of the vampires were too illogical, which made people suspicious.

What benefits did destroying the city bring to the vampires? What drove them to give up the central building? They didn’t even need to ask for help?

Eleanor said, “Of course, it’s also possible that we were lucky. The teleportation magic array inside the vampires suddenly failed. The vampires thought that they were powerless to resist…”

“Who led the team to attack the vampires’ building?”

“Langdon, deputy commander of the third group of the holy cast knights. There’s also a team of Inhumans among them.”

“Langdon is calm and steady. There won’t be any problems.” Chen Li trusted Langdon very much. “Tell Langdon about the unusual movements of the vampires. Tell them to stay alert. Also, pay attention to the safety of the branch stronghold.”

“Yes, Bishop.”

….

The central building of the vampires in Victoria City.

Zhao Nan sat in the driver’s seat of the small car on the campus.

She was completely dumbfounded.

Was this what Fang Shuo meant by doing business with the Holy Court?

If the business didn’t work out, he would just flip the table, right?

The pillar of light that soared into the sky in Victoria City, the evil plan of the Holy Court…

Not long ago, there was a huge explosion at the location of a pillar of light in the city. Even when she sat in the car, she could feel the violent tremors.

Why was it so big?

The entire Victoria City was in chaos, and the internet was also in chaos.

Only Zhao Nan knew what the source of all this was!

It was the young man wearing a mask.

Zhao Nan was a little anxious. She frequently scrolled through her phone and browsed a forum set up by a local player.

The entire Victoria City was under attack and the players were also affected.

The attack on the players did not come from the Holy Court, but from the vampires.

Looking at it, Zhao Nan felt strange.

The vampires did not go to war with the Holy Court, nor did they destroy the magic array in the city. Instead, they destroyed the city’s infrastructure?

“Eh? The internet is down?”

The internet was down.

After a closer look, the phone signal had been cut off.

Zhao Nan put down the phone and looked out of the window anxiously.

Since some time ago, most of the lights in the entire Victoria City had been switched off.

“Eh? What’s that…”

Zhao Nan’s heart skipped a beat. She lowered her body from the car and carefully looked out the window.

It was a player!

At this moment, there were no guards at the periphery of the building of vampires. Two players were carefully groping their way into the inner area of the campus from the outside.

They seemed to be a little strange.

Hiding in the dark, they quickly scouted the inner area of the campus and then carefully retreated.

These two players did not look like vampires no matter how one looked at them.

Zhao Nan took the binoculars from the backpack in the back of the car and raised the binoculars to scout into the distance.

The Holy Court!

The holy cast knights.

A large number of the Holy Church’s holy cast knights and believers formed a mighty team and charged toward the central building of the city.

They were beaten by the Holy Court just like that?

Why were the vampires so weak?

Why didn’t they come back to defend?

Zhao Nan panicked.

She couldn’t stay in this d*mn place any longer.

This business had really used up all the bad luck in her lifetime!

Zhao Nan thought to herself that she must have been stupid to search for junk on the second-hand goods website.

How much could she earn? This wave could cost her life!

Seeing a large group of bats gathering in the sky again, Zhao Nan frowned.

Gritting her teeth, she left the private car and ran towards the building of vampires.
