Chapter 732: The Lost Cross
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Lin Nuo looked around at the elders of the vampires and nodded, “I’m very willing to investigate the incident of the vampires losing their holy weapon, but if the Elders Council insists on letting Fang Shuo do it, I don’t have any objections.”
This matter had been debated within the Elders Council of the vampires for two whole days.
Both the Central Federation and the twelve corporations wanted this opportunity.
In fact, Lin Nuo was the one who suggested that the Elders Council invite Fang Heng over.
But now there was a bit more risk.
Because of his idiotic subordinates, he had a grudge against the other party.
No matter what, Lin Nuo felt that handing this matter over to Fang Shuo was an acceptable option.
All kinds of signs indicated that Fang Shuo came from a higher-tier world.
This meant that he could not trigger the main storyline mission, so he could not affect their main storyline progress.
Lin Nuo felt that compared to the other competitors, Fang Shuo was not that dangerous.
If everything went smoothly, he could use Fang Shuo’s strength to investigate the truth of the matter.
Seeing that everyone had finally reached an agreement after three days of discussion, the three arbitration elders of the Elders Council also discussed for a while. They nodded and said, “I’m glad that everyone can reach an agreement. We can ask Fang Shuo for his opinion.”
…
More than an hour later.
The door of the hall was pushed open.
In the entire hall, nearly thirty vampires turned their heads one after another and cast probing gazes at Fang Heng and the other two who had pushed open the door and entered.
Fang Heng also did not avoid looking around at the crowd.
Sitting at the front were three elderly vampires.
The three arbitration elders of the Elders Council were real power figures.
As for the others…
Fang Heng’s gaze swept over the other vampires, and his eyes glowed with a bright red.
Then, Fang Heng walked forward and randomly chose an empty seat to sit down.
This was the first time that Ding and Meng Hao had seen such a scene.
They carefully followed Fang Heng and sat down next to him.
“Welcome, young descendant. The Elders Council already knew about what happened in Victoria City. Not only did you destroy the plot that the Holy Court had laid out in Victoria City for more than ten years, but you also completely killed a regional bishop that the Holy Court had nurtured for many years. You’ve done well.”
An arbitration elder on the left stroked his beard and said, “If it’s possible, we hope that you can introduce yourself. Also, we still have doubts about the origins of the holy weapon of the vampires in your hands.”
“I come from another world. As for what you’re talking about.”
Fang Heng flipped his wrist and displayed the spirit cane of the holy weapon of the vampires in his hand. “Someone gave it to me. Why? Do you want to take it back?”
The elders confirmed the vampire’s holy weapon in Fang Heng’s hand and began to discuss it in hushed tones.
Vampire’s holy weapon? Someone else gave it to him?
Lin Nuo sized up the vampiric spirit cane in Fang Heng’s hand and thought to herself.
Had the vampiric spirit cane been lost in another server?
He needed to return to investigate as soon as possible. He believed that he would soon find clues. If he followed the clues, he might be able to find out the true identity of the other party.
“The primogenitor has left behind a race in every world. The spirit cane in your hand did not come from our Elders Council. We do not have the right to take it back.”
The arbitration elder on the right, Yates, extended his hand to stop everyone from talking. He looked at Fang Heng, he continued, “This time, we invited you here to ask for your opinion. Just as you saw in Victoria City, there is still the existence of the Holy Court in our world. For tens of thousands of years, the Holy Court has always been our enemy.”
“Apart from the Holy Court, there are also some hidden threats.”
Yates looked at Fang Heng and asked, “Young descendant, are you willing to stay here?”
Fang Heng’s eyelids twitched, and he interrupted, “Indeed, I will stay here for a period of time. I want to know, what can I get?”
“As a descendant you can obtain all the rights you have, including a larger fief, allowing your clan to regain its glory, binding your soul under the Angetas blood pool, and so on.”
“I want to use the strength of the Angetas blood pool to upgrade. My upgrade is quite special, so it might take some time. In addition, I still have some questions that I want answers from the Elders Council.”
“Yes, it’s not difficult to use the Angetas blood pool. As for your questions, we will try our best to answer them. I’m glad that we have reached a preliminary consensus.”
The arbitration elder, Yates, stared at Fang Heng and said, “But everything will have to wait until you gain our trust.”
Fang Heng frowned. “Is what I did in Victoria City not enough to gain your trust?”
“Your actions cannot convince all the clans. There is a more pressing matter in our clan. After the Elders Council has discussed it, we hope that you can go and handle it. After handling it, we will recognize your position in the clan.”
“Sure.”
Yates nodded and explained it very succinctly, “Three nights ago, the whereabouts of the Marquis of the vampires in Dongyang City were unknown. The holy weapon of the vampires, the blood cross, was lost. The Elders Council hopes that you can recover the lost holy weapon of the vampires, the blood cross.”
Fang Heng’s heart skipped a beat.
The blood cross? It just so happened that it was one of the four holy weapons of the vampires that he lacked.
Fang Heng was more interested in this mission. He asked, “The Marquis’ whereabouts are unknown? Is he dead?”
Yates shook his head. “I can only say that Angetas did not resurrect his soul.”
[Hint: Player has triggered mission-lost blood cross.]
Mission name: Lost blood cross.
Mission difficulty: Unknown.
Mission description: Located in Dongyang City, the branch of the vampires, Marquis Rawdon of the Ravnos clan was killed, and the whereabouts of the holy weapon, the blood cross, was unknown.
Mission requirements: Find the lost cross and return it to the Elders Council of vampires.
Mission reward: Friendship with the Elders Council, Elders Council contribution points, survival points.
Remaining time limit: 10 days.
Fang Heng frowned slightly.
The unknown mission difficulty meant that it was inextricably linked to the player.
Moreover, this mission sounded like it was mindless, and it happened three days ago.
It was a bit difficult to investigate.
“Fang Shuo, time is tight. We can wait for you to head to the vampires’ building in Dongyang City before giving the details. The Elders Council has already informed the Ravnos clan. They will cooperate with your investigation and temporarily follow your arrangements.”
Fang Heng glanced at the mission description again and closed the hint.
“I understand. I’ll be back soon.”
“I’ll be waiting for your good news.”
…
More than ten minutes later, Sandy drove the Rolls-Royce back to the city.
Fang Heng told Sandy and Mo Jiawei about what had happened in the Elders Council of the vampires.
As a member of the team, Meng Hao and Ah Ding, who belonged to the vampires’ camp, had also triggered the mission to find the blood cross.
The reward was contribution points and friendship points!
Meng Hao and Ah Ding were very excited.
“Boss Fang, I’ll start with the vampires. I’ll go offline and check the information about the blood cross and the Ravnos clan. I’ll be back soon.”
With that, Meng Hao threw a sleeping bag onto the ground.
“Okay.”
Fang Heng agreed and looked at Ah Ding. “You go and help him as well.”
“Okay!”
Ah Ding agreed and also threw a sleeping bag onto the ground and went offline.
