Facing the Blood Clan man’s loud roar, Demitrija didn’t say anything. Instead,
he held his sword and continued to advance towards the Blood Clan.
As the gap between them narrowed.
The bloodthirsty man could no longer suppress his longing for fresh blood.
His pace quickened from a walk to a run.
A bloodthirsty, eerie smile appeared at the corner of his mouth as he anticipated the forthcoming feast.
He did not take the oncoming Lizardman seriously.
The weapon in his hand was a shortsword, renowned for its speed and versatility, while the towering Lizardman wielded a heavy sword.
In such terrain, he held all the advantage.
The long-awaited sweet taste of blood was indeed alluring.
The bloodthirsty man sprinted towards his prey, skidding to a halt when the
two of them were just three meters apart.
Swish!
The shortsword in his hand stabbed upward from below, aiming for the Lizardman’s lower jaw.
The spot where the armor met the helmet, a hit there would pierce his brainstem from the lower jaw and kill him.
As the tip of the sword kept drawing nearer to the Lizardman’s jaw.
In the man’s mind, the image of blood splattering from the wound already materialized.
The sweet fresh blood gradually filled his mouth.
Suddenly, he felt resistance against his thrusting sword.
Frowning, a look of terror washed over his face.
He saw the Lizardman – with indifference – seize the edge of his thrusting blade.
The blade of the shortsword and the Lizardman’s armored fingertips clashed, producing a scraping sound. His sword was held firmly, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t pull his sword free.
The man’s shock turned to horror.
He was a rank-ten soldier, gifted with the immense power of Eternal Night.
Why did his attacks feel as puny as a woman’s in front of this Lizardman.
“Is that all you’ve got?” The Lizardman countered.
The bloodthirsty man wanted to reply, but the Lizardman’s other hand swung the longsword.
Splat!!
The longsword cleaved his head off, and hot blood gushed out, forming a cloud of smoke under the heat.
The Blood Clan man’s severed head rolled away.
He spotted his own body slowly falling to the ground, along with the orc and a
pet skeleton bird on the stone steps.
Who exactly were they?
Why were the Lizardman, Orc, and the Undead together?
Pondering, his world eventually succumbed to darkness. Without pausing after killing one man, Demitrija continued. Sword in hand, he charged at the next Blood Clan member.
With a swift motion, he decapitated the remaining two Dusk Banqueters. The battle ended swiftly, but Fang Hao’s side still lost ten Barren Tomb Guards. Some were killed by the vampires, others died from activating traps on the ground floor during the battle.
In the end, the battle concluded, and Fang Hao’s side emerged victorious.
A golden treasure chest was brought from the end of the corridor.
At the command, it was sent upstairs.
Lorrey went ahead to inspect traps and mark them before the reassembled troop ventured into the fourth floor.
Lorrey descended to the fourth floor.
However, less than two minutes later, she returned upstairs.
She reported, “The last floor has no traps or enemies, just an open, enormous stone coffin in the center.”
The final floor?
“What’s inside the coffin?” Fang Hao inquired.
“All I saw was uncovered coffin, I didn’t dare to get too close.” Lorrey replied. Indeed, if there were enemies inside, getting too close might awaken them. “Let’s go, move out and check.” Fang Hao flapped his wings, alighting back onto the shoulder of the Barren Tomb Guard.
The team began to descend the staircase into the fourth level.
The area of the fourth level had shrunk again, and there was no passage leading to the next level.
If there were no secret passages, then this would be the last level of the underground palace.
In the central position, there was a huge stone coffin. Rather than a coffin, it was more like a water pool shaped like a stone coffin. On top of the stone coffin were four round copper mirrors.
Around each copper mirror, solar radiant patterns were carved, embedded with solar Essence, casting four rays of light directly into the stone coffin below.
The copper mirrors and patterns were exactly the same as those used to illuminate the heart in the ancient tomb last time.
Fang Hao had basically confirmed it now.
Inside the coffin was the remaining body of the heart. However, looking at the stone coffin that was as big as a swimming pool…
Just how big was the person inside?!
Could the Blood Clan have giant bodies?
That didn’t seem right.
If it was a giant, how would it have been the lover of the City Lord of the human clan from before?
The body structure wouldn’t be up to standard.
Fang Hao was a bit puzzled.
“Go, take a stroll inside,” Fang Hao said to the Barren Tomb Guard beside him. Without hesitation, the Barren Tomb Guard stepped down the stairs and strolled around the entire hall after hearing the command.
There were no surprises, and no enemies appeared.
It seemed safe inside.
“Be careful, move all the funeral items out,” Fang Hao ordered.
Although the stone coffin occupied most of the space, there were still quite a few gold and silver burial items stored in the corners.
The Barren Tomb Guards, in standby mode, sprang into action.
They began to move the funeral items that could be taken away, out of the palace.
Controlling the Skeleton Sparrow, Fang Hao flew directly above the giant coffin in the center and looked down from the top of the coffin wall.
In the stone coffin, there was a pair of giant bat wings.
This…
Under the light beam of the copper mirror, they looked pale and shriveled.
[Reviving Bat Wing]
[Category: Organ]
[Effect: Implant Bat Wing]
[Description: The greedy City Lord stripped the bat wings from his lover. He brought the best surgeons in his city to try to graft them onto himself. After the 324th failure, the City Lord let out a furious roar in the moonlight, and decided to bury the bat wings forever.]
[Mission: Find the Whole Body (Completion 2/3)]
(Description: Find the complete body and there is a chance of getting a Dark Gold level hero to join you.)
The properties information appeared in front of Fang Hao.
It seemed that what was buried here weren’t the remains of the Blood Clan member, but his bat wings.
The effect was to implant the bat wings.
That was to say, if he wanted to, he could graft the bat wings onto his own body. This seemed a lot like the Red Duke from the description.
But the Red Duke ultimately failed. After the 324th failure, he sealed the bat wings here.
Of course, even though he thought it would be cool to have a pair of giant bat wings, Fang Hao would never graft such odd things onto his body.
He had a bone dragon to ride, so why bother risking these weird things. And the mission [Find the Whole Body], was already two-thirds completed. As long as he found the last piece of the body, he would complete the mission. Then there was a chance that a Dark Gold level hero would join his territory. “Remove the copper mirrors and solar essence from above,” Fang Hao continued to order.
Barren Tomb Guards stacked up to reach the copper mirror and took everything from the top.
The light beam of the copper mirror disappeared.
The bat wings in the stone coffin slowly recovered their color and were no longer shriveled.
