Chapter 127: Storm in the City The last city of the Rackman Principality, in North Wind this time, the people of Northwind Castle were in a panic. The news of the capture of various places by the Burning Nest was strictly blocked by the "Eagle Shields", but people still guessed it more or less, or got some gossip. "I, I'll tell you a secret..." "Mesk City, Tro City, Akan City... "They've all fallen." Someone said this in the pub. He was drunk and seemed to have drunk too much. But the drunk was quickly taken away by plainclothes agents, and the tavern suddenly fell silent, with no one daring to speak. In this atmosphere, everyone felt a sense of impending disaster in their hearts, and the air in the city was heavy and almost stagnant. The city is heavily guarded, with several "Eagle Shields" checking the entrances to each important area. Anyone who shows any abnormality will be arrested as a traitor. The doors and windows of every household were closed, but gray-robed spies would still break into every house to search. If they found anything unusual, they would be strictly interrogated or even taken away directly. But no one knew where those so-called "traitors" were taken, and there were even rumors that they were all executed.
This created an inexplicable atmosphere of fear in the city, not only the fear of the attack from the Burning Embers, but also the fear of the rigorous searches by the city guards, and the fear of an unknown future. "Where the hell did he go?" "It should be in that direction, chase!" "Catch him, dead or alive!" In the dark alley, the white shark hid in the shadows and once again avoided the search of the pursuers. He wiped the non-existent sweat from his forehead - as a vampire derivative, a creature with immortal characteristics, he did not seem to have the ability to sweat, it was just a habit. "Is that old Deng crazy? He arrests people like this." "But this guy is almost at the end of his rope. When my Burning Embers' Heavenly Soldiers arrive, this blood-sucking old Deng will be brought to justice!" Every single player would puff out their chest with pride when thinking of the powerful military strength of Burning Ember Lair that crushed the coalition forces. Yeno was also hiding next to the trash can. As the saying goes, "Birds of a feather flock together." After a long time of getting along with the white shark, the former earl has completely abandoned his so-called aristocratic reserve and turned into an old pervert lurking in the shadows. Hearing Langli Baitiao's words, he asked curiously, "You have been staying in the bunker all the time, how do you know the situation outside?" The white shark in the waves chuckled and said, "The mountain man has his own clever plan." "I also know that the coalition forces sent by Lao Deng were completely wiped out, and more than 30,000 people were all turned into barbecue." Thinking of the Battle of Trier, Langli Baitiao's heart ached. He didn't even participate in such an important faction battlefield mission! Many players made tens of thousands of faction contributions at a time, showed their prowess on the battlefield, and even built armor, but he could only crawl in the dungeon and browse the forum silently. "I must show my skills this time!" The white shark swore secretly in his heart. Ye Nuo reminded: "Don't be in a daze here. The pursuers will find this place sooner or later, and then we won't be able to escape." "And if the situation is really as you said, father will never just sit there and do nothing.
"I know my father very well. He will stop at nothing to achieve his goals. He has reached the point of paranoia. He has been planning for a hundred years. During these hundred years, thousands of people have been forced to sacrifice their lives." Langli Baitiao was stunned for a moment, then asked: "You mean this old man wants to make a big move?" "exactly." "I suspect that the citizens who were labeled as traitors were taken to the bunker and made into blood slaves. Father should have realized that he has little time left, so he stopped hiding it and openly used the power of the entire city to complete his so-called great ascension." Langli Baitiao was eager to try: "It seems that I will become the hero who saves this city." "Don't be too happy too soon. Although you have faced your father, you don't understand his power." As if recalling some lost memories, a trace of fear appeared on Yeno's pale face. Langli Baitiao said indifferently: "Why are you scared again? You have PTSD, right? I have been on the run for so long, do you think that Lao Deng can control me? "Besides, I have this—" He pulled out an exquisite metal emblem with blood stains on it. [Rebellious Emblem] Quality: Special "Once there was a wizard who was transformed into a vampire spawn. He attempted to rebel against his master, and so he devoted all his efforts to creating this emblem. Unfortunately, he failed and turned into a pool of blood, and the emblem was quietly displayed in the Duke's collection room, waiting for the next rebel to come." Effect: Can temporarily render a vampire spawn immune to its master's control. This was what Langli Baitiao found in the collection room of the Vampire Duke when he followed Yeno, and this equipment also gave him great confidence. Yeno shook his head, a trace of helplessness appearing on his pale, bloodless face. "Do you really think you can succeed?" "I know the creator of this emblem. His name is Tris. He is the most talented wizard I have ever seen. He is always full of hope and enthusiasm. Even after being transformed into a vampire derivative, he still never gave up and looked for all ways to fight against the Duke." “But in the end, he still failed.” A trace of nostalgia and regret flashed across Yeno Rackman's eyes, but there was also a fleeting hint of despair. "No, just because he can't do it doesn't mean I can't do it. I'm a good swimmer." Langli Baitiao was talking incessantly, but his tone suddenly stopped and he only uttered two words. "I rely on-" Yeno's pupils were suddenly filled with a dark scarlet color. There was no rationality in his eyes anymore, and his whole body exuded a cold breath of death. "Ascension." "For the Great Ascension" "All the sacrifices are worth it." "Dedicate everything——"
Yeno murmured in a low voice, an expression of extreme fanaticism and joy appearing on his pale face. At this moment, he seemed like a devout believer who was about to be blessed by God. He was not at all like the NPC with a rather awkward personality that Langli Baitiao knew. His body was stiff and his posture was strange as he walked towards the Duke's castle in the shadows. The sky seemed to be stained with blood. Langli Baitiao was surprised to find that his "Badge of Rebellion" was emitting a faint light, as if it was struggling to resist some powerful force. "Is this old man going crazy?" "But this seems like a good opportunity." He pondered for a moment, then hid the emblem in his trouser pocket. "Uh for the great ascension?" The white-skinned creature imitated Yeno's strange behavior, pretending to be a controlled vampire derivative, and followed closely. (End of this chapter)
