914 The Vampire King's Will

"Is he okay?" Fang Heng asked with a worried expression.

"He's passed out. He's in a bad condition and needs to be treated with divine spells immediately," The team leader Marken made a quick decision, "Quick, we will return immediately and find the priest for treatment."

Well done!

Fang Heng revealed a smile as if his scheme had succeeded.

In the dark, a vague outline emerged from the shadows.

"Boring."

Although she said it was boring, Wu Siying had to admit that Fang Heng's move saved a lot of time and energy.

Fang Heng followed Marken's team all the way and met eight different types of Holy Court teams. The risk was great if he was reckless.

So now, with the protection of the team, Fang Heng went straight to the center of the Land of Origin.

Very soon, Fang Heng arrived at the central area of the Land of Origin.

The scene in front of him made Fang Heng's heart sink.

The Holy Court team had already occupied the entire Land of Origin and constructed a large-scale magic array around the coffin in the center.

Within the range of the magic array, the holy cast knights were constantly entangled with the afterimages of the Vampire King.

About thirty Holy Court priests were chanting and casting spells around the outer magic array. They were using high-tier purification skills to try and expel the Vampire King's afterimages around the coffin.

Fang Heng's heart stirred as he carefully examined the coffin of the Vampire King.

An ancient stone was placed on the lid of the coffin. It was the remains of the Vampire King!

From the shape, it should be the right arm. As the remains had only gone through the first stage of the seal removal, it was still in a petrified state.

Fang Heng was puzzled. According to what Wu Siying had just said, Jian Muzhi was being pursued by the Holy Court and had to abandon the coffin of the Vampire King. But why didn't he take the remains of the Vampire King with him when he fled?

While Fang Heng was muttering to himself, Marken, the captain of the team, quickly walked up with the injured and unconscious holy cast knight.

"High Priestess Susanna, our team found an injured soldier during a reconnaissance mission."

The High Priestess Susan, who was in charge of cleansing the coffin of the Vampire King, frowned. She checked the wound on the arm of the holy cast knight and asked, "Strange, this is a shadow curse. It doesn't look like a wound left behind by a vampire."

Susanna became alert and looked around the Land of Origin.

Were the believers of the dark shadow nearby?

Were they interested in the Vampire King?

Marken nodded and pointed at Fang Heng, "High Priestess, this is Fang Heng, our believer. He said he has something important to report to you."

"High Priestess, our family has been studying the vampires for generations. The coffins of the vampires may be dangerous. The vampires have left self-destructive devices on the coffins. I can help you detonate these devices and seal the Vampire King."

"Thank you for your help, young believer."

Susanna nodded at Fang Heng with a kind expression.

However, she didn't take Fang Heng's words to heart.

She didn't think that a believer from an inferior world would understand the vampires better than the Holy Court. Besides, they didn't come here to seal it, but to completely destroy it!

"Don't worry, everything is under control. Evil will be dispelled. You did well. Go and rest. We will bring you with us after this."

Fang Heng felt unwilling.

Initially, he had wanted to use this opportunity to get closer to the coffin of the Vampire King, but he could only say, "Please be careful!"

Marken immediately took Fang Heng and retreated far away.

He felt helpless. It seemed that this was all he could do, and he couldn't get too close.

Thinking of this, Fang Heng followed Marken and slowly retreated.

Wu Siying's voice appeared in his head again.

"Is there no way to go any closer to the remains? Forget it, it's pretty good to have come this far. Just detonate the power of the jade pendant. I'll think of a way to escort you closer to it and protect you."

Hearing what Wu Siying said, Fang Heng was about to pour his mental strength into the jade pendant when he suddenly raised his eyebrows.

A muffled voice suddenly sounded in his ear.

"Blood... my descendants, I need fresh blood..."

"Give me your blood, and I will grant you strength..."

"Kill them! These dogs of the Holy Light... I will share my power with you!"

Fang Heng was moved.

That voice couldn't be more familiar!

He had heard of it when he first entered the Land of Origin.

It was the Vampire King's soul!

A line of game hints appeared on Fang Heng's retina along with the echo in his mind.

[Hint: It has been detected that you currently have a realm mission-the remains of the Vampire King.]

[Hint: Player has triggered an optional side mission-the Vampire King's will.]

Mission name: The Vampire King's will.

Mission description: The Holy Court is trying to destroy the remaining will of the Vampire King in the coffin. Please stop the Holy Court's actions and help the Vampire King tide over the crisis.]

[Hint: The coffin contains the remains of the Vampire King that have not yet been unsealed. You can provide sufficient blood to the coffin to assist the King's will in removing the seal and enhance some of the abilities of the King's will.]

Mission description: Assist the Vampire King's will to unseal his remains. The player will be considered to have submitted the Vampire King's remains.

Mission reward: The trust of the Vampire King's will.

Failure penalty: The Vampire King's will will completely disappear, and some parts of the side mission cannot be completed.

Fang Heng's heart skipped a beat. He turned around and looked at the King's coffin behind him.

It turned out that the coffin had already partially fused with the remains of the first stage seal, so Jian Muzhi had no way of taking it away.

If Mo Jiawei didn't remind him earlier, Fang Heng might have been fooled and chosen to follow the mission, wholeheartedly assisting the Vampire King in his attack, to gain his trust and try to get the King's inheritance.

Now, Fang Heng naturally wouldn't be tricked.

He even wanted to let the Holy Court destroy the Vampire King's will as soon as possible so that he could find a way to escape with the coffin and remains.

However, could he make use of the remaining will of the Vampire King?

While Fang Heng was pondering, he suddenly felt a stream of information being forcibly poured into his brain, and his face turned pale.

[Hint: You have gained the ability to temporarily control the Vampire King's afterimages.]

[Hint: The Vampire King's clone ability is related to the current ability of his will.]

"What's wrong?"

Marken was taking Fang Heng away from the coffin when he suddenly noticed that Fang Heng stopped. He saw that Fang Heng's face suddenly turned pale and there was a layer of sweat on his forehead.

Fang Heng clutched his head, still feeling a little dizzy, as he quickly digested the huge amount of information that was forcefully injected into him.

He could feel a weak spiritual link between himself and the coffin. Through the spiritual link, he could control the afterimages of the Vampire King that was fighting with the holy cast knights around the coffin!

In an instant, several thoughts arose in Fang Heng's mind.

He reached out to support Marken and shouted to the High Priestess, "High Priestess! Please be careful! The blood shadows are about to mutate!"
