Chapter 122 Struggle

The offering ceremony officially began.

The blood mist that had enveloped the entire Golden City began to slowly rotate, transforming into a massive blood-red vortex.

At the center of the vortex was the coffin located in the square.

On the streets, in the squares, and on the rooftops, countless streams of blood mist condensed into blood, flowing into the coffin like rivers flowing into the sea.

The mummified corpse was completely soaked in dark red blood.

Changes began to occur.

The skin gradually becomes plump, and muscles regrow.

Even the dry hair regained its shine.

Strands of dark red blood light flowed continuously within the dry corpse.

A hoarse whisper echoed from inside the coffin.

Incredibly greedy: "More—I need more—"

August and Walter exchanged a glance and simultaneously manipulated the magic circle, causing the blood-red vortex to spin at an abruptly faster speed.

More and more blood was gushing in from every corner of the city.

May the ancestor in the coffin awaken more quickly.

"We can't wait any longer!"

"Once that thing is fully resurrected, everyone will die!"

On the Franco Kingdom's side, the leader, Olde, drew his sword and shouted.

The pressure of a peak fifth-order cultivator erupted at full power.

Golden battle aura circulated around him, forcefully dispersing the surrounding blood mist.

Upon hearing this...

Baron Rex of Ironrock Territory, Viscount Victor of Frostwind Territory, and the others exchanged glances and nodded.

not only that.

There were also more than a dozen fourth and fifth-tier experts, some wielding longswords, some flanking the coffin, and others casting spells from high places, all charging towards the coffin from different directions.

Battle aura erupted, and magic roared.

A barrage of attacks, like a violent storm, rained down on the Spirit Vulture.

"Stop them!"

Walter gave the order calmly.

August turned around, thrusting out with both palms. A dark red wall of blood suddenly rose from the ground, blocking the coffin.

More than a dozen attacks slammed into the blood wall simultaneously.

The shockwave from the explosion sent rubble and corpses flying everywhere.

The wall of blood trembled violently, cracks spreading everywhere.

But it was never completely broken.

August was, after all, a sixth-tier powerhouse. Even though he had only recently become a vampire vassal, his strength was still enough to overwhelm a fifth-tier powerhouse.

"Your opponent is me!"

August waved his hands.

The cracked wall of blood shattered into countless bloody fragments in an instant.

Each fragment was as sharp as a knife, and carried with it the filthy power of the vampires, shooting towards the group like hidden weapons.

Several fourth-tier experts were unable to dodge in time.

Hit by blood-red shards.

The shards pierced the body, instantly corroding a hole the size of a fist.

The edges of the hole were charred black.

It also emitted a strong, putrid odor.

Several powerful individuals who were hit immediately screamed and collapsed to the ground, falling silent a few breaths later.

"Leave August to us!"

"The rest of you continue attacking the coffin!"

Alder, the strongest among them, gave orders to the others.

As a member of the Kingdom of Fran, he would definitely laugh at the Griffin Empire's territory in the Great Wilderness for such a mishap and prepare to reap the benefits, but unfortunately, he is now also caught up in the situation.

If we continue to stand by and watch, we will inevitably suffer the consequences.

Therefore, he had no choice but to fight August to the death.

Then, Olde brandished his longsword and slashed at August.

The fifth-tier peak battle qi erupted with full force.

A golden sword light suddenly tore through the air, carrying an unstoppable momentum, heading straight for August's head.

But August simply snorted.

He raised his hand and grabbed the blade.

The dark red blood light clashed fiercely with the golden battle aura.

Ald was horrified to discover that his prized metal-attribute battle aura could not advance an inch in August's palm, as if it were being clamped by iron pincers.

A sixth-tier powerhouse—that's terrifying!

"Peak fifth tier? Nothing special!"

August struck out with his palm, hitting Olde squarely in the chest.

A dark red burst of blood-red light erupted.

Ald's chest armor was shattered on the spot, and he was sent flying backward, crashing heavily into the wall of a building.

He coughed up blood and suffered severe injuries.

"What?! Ald couldn't even withstand a single move from Augusta!"

There was no time to be shocked.

Baron Rex and Viscount Victor chose to join forces to attack Casper, another leader of the vampire vassals.

But Casper's figure was like a ghost.

They moved freely between the two.

The two of them couldn't even touch the hem of his clothes.

"Too slow."

Casper opened his mouth.

The sounds came from all directions.

Moreover, it moves erratically, sometimes to the left, sometimes to the right, sometimes near, sometimes far, making it impossible to pinpoint its location.

Viscount Victor felt a chill run down his spine.

He turned around suddenly.

A streak of blood-red light shot out from the shadows.

There was no time to defend against it!

"Oh no!"

Just when Viscount Victor thought he was doomed.

A beam of holy light suddenly flew over.

He took the blow for him.

It turned out to be Vivian, the Holy Light Church inspector who had been poisoned and murdered by August.

Although she was poisoned and the holy light within her body was unstable.

However, as a church inspector, he was not without means.

At this moment, some kind of secret technique has been used.

At the cost of making it even harder to get rid of the toxins later, the toxins in the body are forcibly suppressed.

This allows their strength to recover temporarily.

Vivian brandished her holy sword, confronting Casper.

The holy light sword energy and the corrosive blood light collided continuously.

The hissing sound continued.

"Join forces!"

Vivian looked at Viscount Victor.

Viscount Victor nodded decisively.

Two against one.

They managed to keep Casper under control.

During the battle.

Vivian parried with her sword in one hand, while taking out a golden Holy Light Badge from her bosom with the other.

The badge is palm-sized.

The front is engraved with the emblem of the Church of Holy Light.

The back is engraved with dense magical patterns.

It serves as both a symbol of the Holy Light Church's inspector status and a special magical item that can send spatial coordinates, create a spatial tunnel, and summon church elders to provide support.

Vivian suddenly crushed the badge.

Countless golden specks of light drifted out from the shattered badge and danced in the air.

We hope these points of light can tear open space.

A powerful figure from the Summoning Cult has descended.

This will resolve the crisis.

However, these points of light did not spread out and form a space tunnel as Vivian had expected.

Instead, after hovering in the air for a moment, it was swallowed up by the light of the crimson magic array and disappeared without a trace.

"What?"

"How is that possible!"

Vivian, and Kuwaiti, another inspector fighting Walter in the distance, were both utterly shocked by what they saw.

Why is the Holy Light Badge malfunctioning?

"Hehehe!"

The voice of Vlad, the progenitor of the vampires, echoed from the coffin: "The spatial beacon of the Church of Holy Light?"

"This space has long been completely sealed off by my blood array."

"Even if those old guys from the Church of Holy Light sense it, they won't be able to pinpoint its exact location for a while."

"By the time they arrive, it will be too late!"

"Hehehe!"
