“Meeting the Marquis of the vampires here is troublesome. ” Zhou Lei quickly calculated the next steps to take in his mind.

“Huh? Silver bullets? ” Dai Ze snorted in disdain. “After so many years, is this still the only thing the demon hunters have? ”

As he said that, Dai Ze raised the cane in his hand and slammed it heavily on the ground.

Thud!

The moment the cane landed on the ground, dark purple ripples that could be seen with the naked eye spread out in all directions.

“Sh*t! Quick… ”

Liu Huiying’s pupils constricted.

She had just opened her mouth and wanted to call out to the players when her feet were already covered by the purple glow.

The next moment, Liu Huiying entered a state of silence.

A line of game hints flashed in her eyes.

“Hint: you have entered a state of silence. You are unable to use any active skills, unable to use your backpack, and unable to speak. ”

“Oh no! It’s over! ” Liu Huiying noticed that her other teammates had also entered a state of silence at the same time.

Zhou Lei’s expression darkened. “That cane’s one of the Thirteen Holy Artifacts! This is troublesome. In this state, we won’t be able to teleport away. ”

Wu Xingwen clenched his fists. He had a high explosive bomb on him. If he fought with all his might, he might be able to interrupt Dai Ze’s spellcasting state.

Bang!

Just as everyone was thinking about how to escape, several ventilation duct openings in the corner of the wall were forced open!

Several red figures scuttled out of the ventilation duct. After landing on the ground, they pounced on the vampire elder, Dai Ze.

It was the Lickers. There was a chance to escape!

Whoosh!

Holding his cane, the old man continuously dodged and deftly avoided the attacks of the Lickers.

However, there were a dozen lickers that had scuttled out of the passage!

In such a narrow environment, Dai Ze had no way to dodge. He could only retrieve his cane, raise it again, and point it at a Licker.

Thud!

The walking stick lightly touched a Licker’s forehead.

The Licker froze in midair for half a second.

Boom!

The Licker’s body exploded!

The moment the cane in Dai Ze’s hand left the ground, the silence spell immediately lost its effect.

“Quick! Teleport! ” Nie Feiran immediately used her spatial skill.

A white light flashed, and Nie Feiran led the team in the passage to the second basement.

…

In the second basement, Zhou Lei felt as if he had run for thousands of meters. His entire body was drained of energy.

He sat on the ground, gulped down a mouthful of cola, and panted heavily.

Liu Huiying’s face was also pale.

The silence spell cast by the vampire elder did not deal much damage to ordinary people, but it dealt a lot of damage to the two spirit-type players.

“Everyone, it seems that you have encountered some trouble. ”

Looking at Fang Heng who poked his head out from the ventilation duct at the side, Chen Ziyang raised his hand. “Thank you. ”

“Thank you to your friends, too. ” Zhou Lei panted and continued, “Ordinary seals are only effective against ordinary vampires. Against that Marquis of the vampires, the seal here is barely effective. With him guarding the entrance, it will be difficult for us to go in and destroy the passage. ”

Everyone fell into silence.

Ahem.

Fang Heng stretched out half of his body from the ventilation duct and raised his hand. “Everyone, I have a suggestion. ”

“Huh? ”

Everyone raised their heads and looked at Fang Heng who was lying in the ventilation duct.

“Fang Heng, why don’t you come down first before talking? ” Chen Ziyang felt that his stiff neck couldn’t take looking up at the ventilation duct anymore.

“No, it’s troublesome to crawl in and out. ”

The anti-demon seal formation on the ground was still in operation. Fang Heng had a bad feeling about setting foot on it.

“Actually, I have a few relatively strong friends. They can think of a way to sneak me alone into the teleportation array. I can secretly go and destroy the teleportation array alone. But once I make a move on the teleportation passage, the built-in alarm of the research institute will be triggered. That old vampire from earlier will come after me, so you have to think of a way to trap him for a while. ”

Liu Huiying and Zhou Lei looked at each other and said, “In addition to our team’s coordinated effort, if we set up an anti-vampire formation to kill vampires in advance, we can trap him for a while. The anti-vampire formation consumes a lot of energy, so we can only set it up once. Moreover, we will not be fit for combat after activating the formation. ”

Fang Heng asked, “How long can we trap Dai Ze for? ”

“It will take about fifteen minutes to set up the formation. Combining both the formation’s effects and our interference from the side, we can probably trap him for at least ten minutes. ”

Fang Heng made some calculations in his heart. “10 minutes is still too short. ”

It seemed that after he constructed the inter-server passage, he had to rush over and help the team deal with the elder of the vampires.

Thinking of that, Fang Heng said, “It’s about enough time for me to destroy the teleportation passage. I have no problem. ”

Wu Xingwen asked in a deep voice, “Fang Heng, your plan is very risky. How confident are you? ”

Fang Heng shrugged and said in a relaxed manner, “Of course I’m 100% confident. ”

Wu Xingwen no longer hesitated. “Check the time now. Execute the plan and activate the anti-vampire formation in 18 minutes… ”

…

Following the ventilation duct, Fang Heng climbed back to the third basement and returned to the control center hall.

The hall was somewhat chaotic.

Presently, the sky had already brightened in the outside world. The Federation, which lay low for the entire night, made its attack.

The huge contrast made the Night Owl organization’s side barely able to hold on.

Fang Heng noticed that Parason was controlling something in front of the main control platform, appearing anxious.

“What’s wrong, Parason? From your expression, the situation doesn’t seem very good. ”

Without checking Fang Heng’s position, Parason casually replied, “We’re in big trouble. I can’t contact the laboratory in the sixth basement. ”

“Oh? ”

“The Federation’s counterattack is unexpectedly fierce. Mr. Sikong is currently under a lot of pressure. He just contacted us to urgently activate the Tyrants and block the Federation’s first wave of attack. ”

“Mhm. ”

Parason was so anxious that his forehead was covered in sweat. “I can already try to establish contact with the laboratory on the sixth basement, but there’s no response from there. ”

“Right. ” Fang Heng understood and said, “Could it be that the sixth basement was attacked by a group of Lickers? ”

“No way… The laboratory in the sixth basement is a sealed space. Even if the passage of the sixth basement was attacked by a group of Lickers, the Lickers would still be unable to pass through the metal door. ”

Parason’s tone also became somewhat uncertain. Although he was very unwilling to admit it, he felt that Fang Heng was right.

“If what Fang Heng said is true… ” thought Parason.

Fang Heng suggested, “Why don’t you bring a few people to the sixth basement to take a look? ”

When Parason heard that, he immediately cowered. “Don’t tease me anymore. Earlier, the surveillance equipment on the second basement malfunctioned. Later, the vampires were also attacked. Now, the entire research institute might be invaded by the Federation. If we go to the sixth basement, we might be in danger. ”

“That makes sense. After all, our lives are our own. There’s no need to risk it so much. ” Fang Heng agreed very much.

As he spoke, he walked to the command station and pouted at the space-tearing stabilizing device in the center.
