Online Fortune Telling: Your Son Has Another Dad-Chapter 356 - 354: Attrition

Relying on the glow of the Exorcism Talisman, everyone finally avoided being attacked by the Blood Slaves.

However, as the number of Blood Slaves continued to increase, under the impact of a large number of Blood Slaves, the glow of the Exorcism Talisman became increasingly dim.

With the ebb and flow, the area that the white light could cover became smaller and smaller.

"Old Taoist, what should we do next?"

Director He asked again, full of worry.

"Yes, Old Taoist, the Exorcism Talisman you gave us doesn’t seem to last long."

Group Leader Qi also chimed in.

Zhenyuan replied in a deep voice: "This Blood Evil Illusion Array covers at least a twenty-li area."

"Setting up such an array must have been an enormous expenditure."

"And now that the Spiritual Qi has not fully recovered, the demon’s cultivation won’t be too strong."

"Thus, I suspect that the demon won’t be able to sustain it for very long either..."

Saying this, he fished out several more Exorcism Talismans from his pocket and continued, "I still have some Exorcism Talismans here, enough to support everyone for a while."

"As long as we can hold out until the demon’s mana is exhausted, the array will naturally be broken."

"By then, we will be able to leave safely."

Director He and Group Leader Qi nodded hesitantly after hearing this.

In their view, this kind of attrition strategy was the last resort.

Because no one knew exactly how long the Vampire Zombie could maintain the array.

If the Vampire Zombie could sustain it longer than them, they would surely die here.

But considering the current situation, it seemed to be the most reasonable strategy.

After all, Zhenyuan was already seriously injured, unable to lead everyone out of the array as before.

"Old Taoist, let’s go and tell the others about your plan, and have everyone cooperate with you."

Director He glanced at Zhenyuan and said in a low voice.

"Hmm!"

Zhenyuan nodded slightly without saying much more.

Director He and Group Leader Qi returned to the crowd and relayed Zhenyuan’s plan to hold out to Henderson and the others.

"Isn’t there any other way?"

"I don’t want to stay here any longer, I want to go home!"

"Since the old man could lead us out before, why can’t he now?"

"Does he want money? If that’s the case, I’ll definitely give him a satisfying amount when I return home."

"Honestly, we can’t stay here any longer! Look, the glow of the Dragon Country people’s paper is getting dimmer and dimmer."

"If that paper completely loses its glow, are we going to die too?"

"Oh God, coming here was such a mistake!"

"Damn curiosity! If I wasn’t curious about this vampire monster, I wouldn’t have come here!"

"I’m a bit hungry, does anyone have food..."

As everyone discussed, Director He’s face didn’t look too good.

"Cough, cough!"

He coughed and suppressed his anger, saying, "Ladies and gentlemen, we are rescuing you out of international humanitarianism!"

"We are not your bodyguards, attendants, or servants!"

"If you don’t want to follow this plan, then feel free to walk out of here."

"I can assure you that no one will stop you..."

Group Leader Qi also spoke: "Our plan is to stay here and wait."

"If someone doesn’t want to wait with us, they can leave on their own."

The two of them, with one word here and another there, instantly quieted the scene.

Those who had been complaining earlier immediately shut their mouths.

Members of the international investigative team looked at each other, though somewhat dissatisfied in their hearts, no one stood up.

Because they all knew that once they walked out of here, there would only be one outcome—death!

Seeing the atmosphere becoming increasingly awkward, Henderson quickly stepped out, smiling, and said, "He, we are very grateful for your life-saving help."

"We also agree to stay and continue waiting."

Having said that, he glanced at everyone present and continued, "I share the view of Mr. He from Dragon Country."

"If anyone doesn’t want to wait or is eager to go home, they can leave on their own."

Upon hearing this, everyone bowed their heads and said nothing more.

"Let’s not be too pessimistic; we can also think positively..."

"For instance, if we can return from here alive, we’ll surely become senior advisers in our respective countries with the intelligence we possess."

Henderson tried to encourage everyone.

Upon hearing this, the crowd thought for a moment, it was indeed the truth.

In this world, who could know more about that vampire monster than them?

The answer was definitely no one!

If they could make it out alive, they would surely become sought-after monster experts...

Thinking this, they exchanged a few words and finally had no objections.

As time gradually passed, the Exorcism Talismans in the hands of the members of the Dragon Country investigative team were about to burn out.

Seeing this, Zhenyuan quickly activated the reserves he had and handed them to everyone.

Seeing his increasingly pale face, everyone’s worry grew.

He was their last hope!

If anything happened to him, none of them were getting out alive!

And Henderson and the others couldn’t understand Dragon Country’s language and couldn’t communicate with Zhenyuan.

But this didn’t stop their curiosity about Zhenyuan.

They repeatedly asked the members of the Dragon Country investigative team about Zhenyuan.

Unfortunately, the folks from Dragon Country were tight-lipped, revealing nothing.

With no other choice, they shifted their curiosity to other aspects.

And that "other aspect" was precisely the talismans in the hands of the people from Dragon Country.

Henderson’s group looked at them for quite some time but couldn’t figure out how a small piece of yellow paper could emit white light and eliminate Blood Shadows.

"He, what exactly is the principle behind this paper in your hand?"

Henderson leaned close to Director He and asked in a low voice.

"I don’t know!"

Director He shook his head decisively.

"He, I thought that given our camaraderie in this adversity, you wouldn’t hide anything."

Henderson said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Director He secretly curled his lip.

He thought to himself, "What camaraderie do I have with you?"

But he only said this to himself.

He shook his head with a smile and said, "Mr. Henderson, it’s not that I don’t want to tell you."

"But I don’t know the secret of it either."

"If I could learn it, then I’d be an Extraordinary as well..."

"Oh?"

Henderson’s eyes widened in surprise and delight, "Learning to make yellow paper glow makes you an Extraordinary?"

"Sort of."

Director He nodded perfunctorily, wondering why the other party had so many questions.

Seeing this, Henderson smiled and didn’t ask any more questions.

However, his gaze quietly shifted to Zhenyuan at the front.

"What on earth must be done to bring this old man back to our Ox Country?"
