990 Deceiving Two
“Hehe… Hahaha!” Joel didn’t pursue the fleeing humans. His 16 afterimages laughed wildly at the same time.
This felt so good!
Now that he had finally been temporarily released from the curse that had been plaguing him for thousands of years, Prince Joel felt more relaxed than he had ever been.
“This group of humans…”
After laughing, the 16 afterimages turned their heads at the same time and looked in the direction where the Federation players were escaping.
“Weren’t you having a good time chasing me just now?”
It was time for them to pay the price.
Joel was just about to catch up with them and leave an unforgettable memory for the humans when Duke Maica came to his side and knelt on one knee.
“Your Highness.”
Joel frowned and stopped in his tracks. “Speak.”
“The King has ordered that the humans are not our most important enemy now. He has asked that you not pursue them. We should return to protect the passage to the world of the vampires.”
“Fang Heng, the Vampire King…” Hearing Maica’s words, Joel was silent in thought for a moment.
The fruit just now… Was this the proof that he was King?
The image of Jian Muzhi in Joel’s heart began to collapse.
Maica struck while the iron was hot and continued, “Your Highness, we’ve followed Jian Muzhi for so long and didn’t get any benefits. In my opinion, it’s easy to see who’s real and who’s fake.”
“Yes.”
Indeed, the truth was right before his eyes. At this point, Joel had already believed most of Fang Heng’s words.
Jian Muzhi was a liar!
How hateful! To think he had been deceived by the other party for so long!
Joel unconsciously clenched his fists and asked in a deep voice, “Where is the King now?”
“We just separated. He was worried that you would be in danger and asked me to bring the fruit to save you. His Majesty has gone ahead to find the materials for the magic array. Once he has found the materials, he will meet us at the teleportation passage’s magic array location.”
Joel nodded. “Alright, I’ll go with you. Tell me in detail what happened just now.”
“Yes!”
The two of them immediately transformed into their bat forms and flew into the cave.
…
On the upper level of the cave, not long after Zhong Haoyang and Fang Heng split up, the teleportation passage was soon opened again.
Yao Weihua, who was in charge of commanding the small team, put all his attention on the vampire. After learning that Fang Heng had gone missing, he didn’t have much of a reaction. He simply led the follow-up reinforcements to explore the lower level of the passage.
While no one was paying attention, Zhong Haoyang immediately asked for special materials for the magic array in the name of research.
After more than half an hour, the Federation’s logistics team arrived with the materials and supplies.
Just as Zhong Haoyang was mulling over how to transfer the resources to Fang Heng, a red light flickered in the transportation passage at the edge of the cave.
“Fang Heng?”
Fang Heng walked out of the teleportation passage and glanced at the team from the Federation who was still analyzing and studying the magic array. He nodded to Zhong Haoyang, walked over quickly, and asked in a low voice, “How is it? Did you get everything?”
“Yes, you’re here at the right time. The supplies have just arrived.”
Zhong Haoyang couldn’t help but feel a little uneasy about Fang Heng’s actions under the eyes of the twelve corporations. He pulled Fang Heng to the side and asked in a low voice, “How’s the situation over there? Did you manage to deceive the vampires?”
Fang Heng thought to himself, “How can this be called deceiving? Did he always give others the impression that he was a liar?”
But time was of the essence and Fang Heng had no time to argue with Zhong Haoyang. He said simply, “I have stabilized the situation with the vampires and they’re preparing to set up a magic array to return to the game world. Let’s speed up.”
“Can you really handle it? There will be fluctuations when the passage is opened, so we must be prepared.”
Zhong Haoyang laughed bitterly in his heart. Sometimes, he would suddenly feel that Fang Heng was more dangerous than Jian Muzhi. To think the former would attempt to forcefully open a teleportation passage in such a tense situation.
“I know. This area can cover part of the aura. Moreover, the passage I open will be very small, so the fluctuation won’t be that big. Besides, we still have Jian Muzhi to take the blame.” Fang Heng had already found a good target to push the blame on. He asked anxiously, “Where are the supplies?”
“It’s fine as long as you know what you’re doing. Follow me.”
Fang Heng followed Zhong Haoyang to the side where the pile of supplies was left.
Zhong Haoyang was very cautious. To avoid being discovered, he had deliberately asked for a lot of unnecessary materials and supplies.
Fang Heng immediately squatted to check.
There were not many materials needed to set up the magic array. The two quickly sorted out those they needed to construct the magic array and put them into two large sacks. They did not care if they looked good or not. They simply carried the two large sacks full of materials and jumped into the teleportation passage.
A few soldiers from the operation department of the Federation did not pay much attention to their actions. They thought that the two of them were just doing all of it to study the magic array.
After returning to the lower level of the cave, Fang Heng led Zhong Haoyang to a hidden corner of the cave through a passage.
On the way, Fang Heng and Zhong Haoyang saw several Federation combat squads fighting with the vampires.
The two of them remained silent as they carefully walked past.
Very quickly, Fang Heng brought Zhong Haoyang to a hidden cave.
As soon as he stepped into the cave, Zhong Haoyang suddenly felt a bone-piercing chill on his back. An extremely cold aura spread from the tip of his toes to his body. It was as if he had fallen into an ice cave, and his body was frozen in place.
“Fang Heng, you’re here.”
Fang Heng’s heart skipped a beat when he heard the familiar voice. He turned his head and looked to the side.
The vampire Prince! Loeb!
On the other side, Prince Joel also flew over.
The two vampire Princes stood in front of Fang Heng at the same time, sizing him up.
Princes!
Those were vampire Princes!
Zhong Haoyang was shocked.
He knew that there might be a Prince in the cave, but he didn’t expect to see two Princes standing face-to-face in front of him.
Zhong Haoyang’s body was stiff and his legs were weak.
The final boss in the elementary game world!
There were two of them here!
Just the difference in tier was enough to make Zhong Haoyang break out in a cold sweat.
He turned his head to look at Fang Heng carefully.
This time, it was a big deal. To think Fang Heng was so bold that he even dared to lie to the Princes.
If they were accidentally discovered and the Princes were angered…
Oh no, did he follow Fang Heng here to die this time?
Fang Heng was overjoyed to see Prince Loeb, and a smile appeared on his face.
That’s great!
He didn’t expect Maica to find Loeb as well!
If he could trick the two Princes back, he would have three vampire Princes in addition to the Prince of District 9, Carl!
This powerful combat strength…
As long as he didn’t seek death and acted greedily by making a move in the real world like Jian Muzhi, it wouldn’t be a dream for him to be dominant in the low-tier game worlds!
Fang Heng gave Maica a “well done” look and nodded to Loeb with a smile. “Loeb, it’s been a long time. You don’t look good.”
