Chapter 3138: Spreading the Black FogEditor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Not good!

"Scatter and escape!"

The martial artists were shocked.

They were all mid-tier and lower-tier martial artists, and their strength was like an unbridgeable chasm compared to Chen Hanyu’s.

If even Chen Hanyu could not defeat Fang Heng, there was no way they could win!

Their only chance was to run for their lives!

Scatter and escape!

If they could make it back to the ships, there might be a slim chance of survival!

Fang Heng saw the group of martial artists instantly scatter like frightened birds and beasts. He let out a disdainful humph, swiftly using vampire imprints to mark them all before heading straight toward the nearest martial artist.

Not a single one would get away!

Whoosh!!!

The martial artist targeted by Fang Heng sensed a terrifying aura rapidly closing in from behind. Knowing death was near, he clenched his teeth.

"Damn it! I’ll fight you!"

Whoosh!!!

The martial artist suddenly turned around and threw a punch forward.

Two different forces collided!

"Boom!"

The martial artist’s body exploded in mid-air into a mass of flesh and blood.

That lunatic!

The other martial artists, who had fled in all directions, saw the terrifying scene and dared not hesitate any longer. They desperately accelerated their escape, trying to get as far as possible from that terrifying man.

Fang Heng chased them down one by one using the vampire imprints, patiently hunting them until every single martial artist had been wiped out. Only then did he return to the ship’s domain and look toward the ship already invaded by the Lickers.

The ship lacked high-tier combat strength like that of martial artists, and it also lacked equipment to counter mutant worms. At best, they could delay a little, but could not withstand the vampires’ pursuit. The outer defensive barrier had already been destroyed under the vampires’ concentrated attacks, and large numbers of vampires had already infiltrated through various entrances into the ship’s interior.

Huh?

Fang Heng’s heart stirred, and he frowned slightly.

Looking carefully, he saw a faint, thin mist covering the ship’s domain.

Black Fog from the game!

Fang Heng narrowed his eyes and observed closely.

Not only the Lickers, but even the vampires who had entered the world through the vampire teleportation gates constantly emitted faint traces of black mist.

The black fog’s concentration was very low, so it had no effect, but since large numbers of vampires and zombie creatures had gathered on the ship, the black fog was slowly building up.

[Hint: The player is spreading Black Fog].

[Hint: Current world Black Fog spread rate: 0.0001%.]

Hmm?

Out of the corner of his eye, Fang Heng glanced at the game hint that appeared on his retina.

Again.

The Black Fog was spreading!

Similar game hints had appeared before.

"Your Majesty."

Vampire prince Buller arrived with several elite vampires, coming to Fang Heng’s side and reporting softly, "Your Majesty, we have occupied the cavern domain, found a ship awaiting maintenance, and most of the resisting personnel have been killed. The remaining prisoners and security team captives are temporarily being held."

"Mm, well done."

Fang Heng withdrew his gaze from the game hint and turned to look at Buller.

A prince-level vampire’s strength was roughly equal to that of a top mid-tier martial artist.

That was enough for ordinary battles, but in the Seven Realms Martial Capital and against the spawns, it was somewhat lacking.

How could he raise his subordinate vampires’ top combat strength by another level?

Increasing dimensional strength was too difficult at this stage, so it was not worth considering for now.

That left only the academic route.

Fang Heng studied Buller, silently thinking.

During his advancement to Super-God level necromancy, he had successfully fused undead power with vampire power.

If vampire strength was to go further, it should develop in the direction of necromancy.

Buller felt uneasy under Fang Heng’s gaze.

"Your Majesty, do you have instructions?"

"Buller, your bloodline is the source of your strength, but also your shackle. Have you systematically studied necromancy?"

"Yes." Buller’s expression sharpened, and he immediately nodded. "You mentioned before that for us to advance further, we would take part in necromancy cultivation. We have never slacked off, but our understanding of necromancy’s abilities is limited, so our progress has been slow."

"What level are you at now?"

"Grandmaster level."

Fang Heng thought for a moment.

Indeed, vampires had never studied necromancy before. Learning it from scratch meant they were only just beginning, especially compared to those in the Necromancer Association who had studied for tens of thousands of years.

Reaching grandmaster level was already impressive.

After all, the Necromancer Association’s highest level was only demigod-level necromancy.

In theory, necromancy instructors should already be touching upon the Law level.

But that didn’t seem right. When he had studied necromancy, he had not come into contact with the Laws.

Thinking carefully, the powers of hell, divinity, and the undead were quite different from ordinary academic advancement—they didn’t seem to require touching the Laws.

Fang Heng recalled the orb he had seen in the Nether River illusion.

The entire world’s structure revolved around the Death Realm Orb.

After losing the orb, the death realm had gradually fallen into ruin.

Could the Death Realm Orb be related to the Laws?

"Your Majesty?"

Fang Heng looked up and said, "Mm, take me to see the warehouse first."

"Yes!"

...

First level of the mountain cavern.

Inside a modified large warehouse.

Buller led Fang Heng into the warehouse.

The warehouse was managed by a fungal tribesman—Collier.

The fungal race had low individual ability levels, but they possessed an extremely terrifying reproductive capacity.

"Sir."

Collier already knew that the vampires had conquered the Land of Ice Soul and obediently lowered his head in submission.

Fang Heng asked, "Where’s the Core Flame Ore?"

"The Core Flame Ore is delivered to the spawns by ship every week on schedule. Most of the ore mined this week is still being refined and will need more time to complete. At present, only half a crate of ore has finished refining, and it is temporarily stored in Warehouse No. 3."

"Your Majesty."

Carl hurried over with two vampire guards.

Alongside him came Kapa and Cole Karot.

Carl knelt on one knee and reported, "We have successfully taken the ship and gained access to the main control room, but the security team has already reported the attack to the spawns in advance."

Cole Karot frowned and said, "Mr. Fang, as far as we know, the Core Flame Ore is very important to the spawns. They should be sending people here soon to suppress the rebellion. We need to plan."

"Mm."

Fang Heng gave a slight hum and asked, "What’s the extent of the ship’s damage? How long until it’s fully repaired?"

"It’s all been checked. The fastest would be eight hours."

Fang Heng curled his lips.

Another Marquis-level vampire flew over, knelt on one knee, and reported, "Your Majesty, the vampire elder team has completed the arrangement of Abe Akaya’s teleportation magic array."

"Good."

Fang Heng nodded lightly and quickly considered the situation.

With Abe Akaya’s magic array in place, there was nothing to worry about.

He might as well use this planet as a battlefield to fight the spawns and gauge their strength.

If they could not win, at worst, they would suffer some losses—mainly consuming a large amount of Abe Akaya’s energy—and then escape through the teleportation magic array.

If possible, they could repair all the ships on the planet and transport all the planet’s materials away by ship.

With that thought, Fang Heng’s mind moved, and he glanced again at the game hint that had appeared on his retina.
