"Bang!! Bang Bang!!!"
Behind Nick, the members of the Holy Church in the exhibition hall pulled the trigger and fired in unison.
A dense barrage of bullets hit the Licker.
The huge impact sent the Licker flying backward.
"It's a ghoul!!"
A name appeared in Nick's mind as he stabbed the long sword in his hand forward.
"Chi!"
The sword stabbed into the stiff Licker's body.
"Bang!"
Nick kicked the Licker away and immediately shouted, "Stop them!! Inform the judge! We are attacked by a group of ghouls!"
In the blink of an eye, when the believers of the Holy Church reloaded their ammunition, more than ten Lickers appeared from every corner and quickly rushed toward the gate!
Nick took the lead and took a step forward, blocking the path of the ghouls. His long sword suddenly slashed forward!
"Ka!!"
The long sword slashed at the sharp claws of the Licker that was about to land on the ground.
What was going on?!
Nick raised his eyebrows.
He realized that the strength of the ghouls was not inferior to his!!
He took half a step back and tightened his grip on the long sword in his hand.
Something was wrong?
In the records of the Holy Court, the ghouls were a kind of filthy creature. They could not die and could only be expelled by the Holy Light. However, their various attributes were not strong.
Or could it be that the so-called 'not strong' in the world described in the records was different from theirs...
Nick's forehead was covered in a layer of cold sweat.
Why would the ghouls appear in such a place?!
"Block the entrance! Don't let them enter the building!!"
Hearing that, the members of the holy cast knights followed Nick and used their bodies to block the entrance of the passage. They raised their long swords to face the ghouls that kept attacking from behind the corner.
[Hint: You are close to the central area of the magic array.]
[Hint: Affected by a powerful magic array, your skill-vampire bloodline's attribute bonus has been nullified.]
[Hint: All your holy attribute skill effect will be increased by 30%.]
"Heh... it's still the same old tactic. Do you still want to block the entrance? Can't you come up with something new..."
Not far from the battlefield, Fang Heng slowly walked toward the exhibition "You really think I don't know how to play?"
Fang Heng glanced at the game hint and muttered softly. He immediately controlled the Lickers from afar to engage in battle.
The Lickers were not affected by the magic array's weakening effect. They would also not be stopped by people blocking the entrance!
Under Fang Heng's control, the Lickers climbed up the wall. They broke through the building's defenses through the walls and entered the exhibition hall directly, they attacked the believers of the Holy Church who were hiding behind the cover of the building and firing cold shots.
"Damn it! They're climbing up."
"Cover me! Shoot! Shoot!"
"Save me!"
The believers of the Holy Church had never seen a creature like the Lickers. They did not have strong combat abilities, so they were no different from ordinary people when they were shooting from the back.
Once the Lickers, which had been enhanced with high attributes, got close to them, they would not be able to fight back effectively. It would be a one-sided massacre.
[Hint: You have killed a high-tier believer of the Holy Court. Your contribution points +24. Your survival points + 29.]
[Hint: You have killed a believer of the Holy Court. Your contribution points +10...]
Line after line of game hints began to appear on Fang Heng's game log.
The tactical effect was remarkable.
Fang Heng thought to himself. He immediately controlled the Lickers to occupy the area on the first to fifth floors of the exhibition hall. At the same time, he blocked the other exits.
The holy cast knights blocked the entrance of the hall with the powerful defensive ability of the Holy Light armor. The Lickers struggled for a moment.
Nick became more and more anxious.
Why hadn't the backup arrived yet?
The more he fought, the more frightened he became. Not only were the ghouls powerful, but they also had the characteristic that they could not be killed. Only the Holy Light could purify them.
But in this situation, they had no time to complete the purification!
No, they could not defend the entrance anymore. They had to retreat!
Seeing the armor of the holy cast knights beside him break one after another, and the ghouls cut many wounds on their bodies, Nick immediately made a decision and shouted, "Go! Go first! Retreat to the ground first!"
After shouting, Nick had just turned around and retreated when his pupils suddenly shrank.
What was going on?!
Looking around, the hall was actually filled with ghouls!
About 20 ghouls were crawling on the ground, slowly approaching them as if they were demonstrating their power.
It was over.
Nick's mind was a little blank, and he was so nervous that he could not speak for a moment.
"Chi Chi Chi!"
More than 20 Lickers pounced on Nick and the others at the same time.
In almost an instant, along with the Lickers outside the building, the holy cast knights were surrounded by the group of Lickers!
Being compressed into an evasive space, Nick felt countless claw shadows waving in front of him.
Bang!
His armor shattered.
His body was scratched by the sharp claws...
[Hint: You have killed the holy cast knights of the Holy Court. You have received 42 contribution points for the mission. You have received 12 vampire reputation points. You have received 36 survival points. You have received Tier 1 evolution crystal*1.]
[Hint: You have killed the captain of the holy cast knights of the Holy Court, Nick. Your friendship with the Holy Court has slightly decreased...]
"Tsk, it's quite hard."
After spending more than three minutes dealing with the holy cast knights at the entrance, Fang Heng walked out from behind with Sandy and some Lickers and turned his hand to the floor.
The scattered evolution crystal fragments on the ground were sucked into the imprint on the back of Fang Heng's hand.
[Hint: You have obtained evolution crystal fragments*26, complete evolution crystal*17, Tier 1 evolution crystal*3, Tier 2 evolution crystal*2.]
His luck was average. He had acquired an additional three evolution crystals and was one small step away from leveling up.
Fang Heng thought optimistically.
The highest level up that a believer of the Holy Church could drop was a complete evolution crystal. It was almost useless. Only holy cast knights could drop crystals for leveling up.
"Ehhhhh..." Entering the exhibition hall, Sandy looked around and fell silent for a moment.
"What? Did you find something again?"
"Sigh." Sandy sighed, looking disinterested. Shaking his head, he sighed, "What exhibition hall? I thought it was an art exhibition, but it turned out to be a car exhibition hall."
"Let's go."
Fang Heng controlled the group of Lickers and continued to walk down the exhibition hall.
Through the vampire bloodline, Fang Heng had a clear perception that the core of the sealing node was at the lower level of the exhibition hall.
...
In the second basement, in an open hall, Judge Sun Chong led more than ten holy cast knights and believers to guard the sealing stone.
The Holy Court had been secretly operating in Victoria City for a long time, but they were still restricted by the vampires. Their development was still very slow, and they did not dare to expand and gain believers.
The staff had always been in a very insufficient state.
The defense of the sealed spot of the exhibition hall was very weak.
Sun Chong had just heard the commotion outside.
He did not look outside immediately. Instead, he ordered everyone to stay in the second basement and be on guard.
