This Text Adventure Game is definitely poisonous-Chapter 1197 - 539: The Battlefield Corpse Collector

"I am at your service," you agreed readily in response to the Regent King’s invitation.

"Very well. Rest assured, I never shortchange my own people. Once this is accomplished, I will gather all the Blood Rhythms for you in the shortest time possible," the Regent King looked at you with satisfaction, then suddenly added, "Moreover, the ’Blood Hunt’ reward I announced last night also applies to you. If you can kill Mansour, you will receive that drop of third-generation Sourceless Heartblood."

You choose...

You show surprise, repeatedly waving your hands and claiming that Mansour is a third-generation Vampire, questioning from where would you have the Combat Power to kill him? You frankly admitted that you hadn’t even dared to imagine earning the Blood Hunt reward.

"I mean if!" the Regent King said with a Smile, "If an opportunity to kill him arises, you must seize it! As long as you can kill Mansour, the reward will definitely be substantial! Just remember this."

"Alright, I’ll do my best," you said with some reluctance.

Mu You may not be impressed with these politicians’ tactics, but he was sensibly alert at this moment; the Regent King was apparently testing him to see if he possessed Jack’s strength.

If he had the strength of an original Vampire, slaying Mansour would certainly be a piece of cake, and whether he was confident in his own Combat Power would directly affect the tone of his response.

The other party indeed intended to judge through his response whether he was truly formidable or merely pretending, riding on the coattails of Jack’s reputation. freewebnoveℓ.com

Unfortunately, Mu You did not fall for it; no matter the provocation, he chose to play ignorant.

And whether the other side noticed his deliberate avoidance or not, the Regent King only brought up the matter briefly and did not mention it again.

"Besides you and me, those participating in tonight’s action include the Royal Family, the Midas touch clan, and all the Judges’ main Combat Power. Our numbers exceed nine hundred!" the Regent King detailed the night’s situation to you.

"Their side comprises the entirety of the Reformer clan, a majority of the Abnormality members, plus a portion of Wanderers who have thrown in their lot with them."

"However, in terms of numbers, they do indeed outnumber us, but after all, they are lower clans. When it comes to high-end Combat Power, they are not on our level!"

"Therefore, you needn’t worry about the strength of both sides. In theory, our Combat Power should crush them. The real concern isn’t about victory or defeat, but how we can annihilate them as thoroughly as possible!"

"Additionally, I have a mole within the Reformer clan; I know their personnel deployment like the back of my hand. In all aspects, we have the upper hand. The reason we’re acting with such urgency is to catch our opponents off guard. Ideally, we could crush their morale in one fell swoop and minimize our losses..."

The Regent King listed a heap of advantages, appearing utterly confident. However, Mu You knew that there was also an informer from the Reformers by the Regent King’s side.

The so-called ’grasp of their deployment’ could very likely be a ruse deliberately shown to them. When they really charged headlong in with their troops, they might encounter traps.

But, Mu You had no intention of warning the Regent King.

He wasn’t genuinely planning to assist the Regent King in his endeavor; his task tonight was to ’pick up the pieces.’ The more intense the fight between both sides, the better. Since the Regent King’s side seemed too advantaged on the face of it, Mu You decided to let them suffer a setback first to balance things out.

You followed the Regent King and left the great hall, heading to a small alley behind the high-rise.

At that moment, the dark and secluded alley was bustling with people, as hundreds of Vampires gathered there. The Vampires, dressed in a variety of styles, ranged from punk-style ripped jeans to vintage noble robes to suits and ties. Though their attire varied, their eyes shared a striking similarity, glowing green with wildness and cunning.

Upon seeing the Regent King’s appearance, one of the female Vampires immediately deactivated her ’Shield,’ and a Shield capable of blocking perception unfurled, enveloping all surrounding Vampires within.

A Shield, a rare Blood Rhythm belonging to the Midas touch clan, does precisely what the name suggests—it can deploy a protective Shield to block supersensory and various detection abilities.

Without this ability, such a large group of Vampires moving together would definitely be detected.

"Onward!" commanded the Regent King. Instantly, the surrounding Vampires dispersed, spreading out into the nearby streets and alleys. Moving along the shadows, they formed a dark surge, streaming toward the city’s southern suburbs.

You followed closely by the Regent King’s side, as his right-hand man, moving rapidly through the night with the troops...

An operation involving over a thousand Vampires was undoubtedly an impressive sight, but Mu You’s current position wasn’t ideal. Standing next to the Regent King, he was bound to be at the forefront when the fighting started.

Naturally, Mu You knew that the Regent King had arranged this deliberately, aiming to thrust him into the heart of the tempest and forcibly drag him into the opposing team.

Unfortunately, it wasn’t a good time for Mu You to leave directly; he would have to wait and see how things developed.

While on the move, Mu You took the opportunity to quickly scan the crowd behind him.

Wood Sheffield, the Royal Family, a sixth-generation Vampire...

Laphia Bailey, of the Midas touch clan, a sixth-generation Vampire...

Crescent Moon Arroyo, from the Judges’ clan, a fifth-generation Vampire...

Mu You continually pressed his Pocket Watch, and one after another, names and information popped up on the screen.
