Chapter 3169: Blockade Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio After waiting for a full ten minutes, the Blue Lizard elder could not help but say, "Are you done searching? So afraid, you might as well not cooperate at all." "Hahaha, don’t mind me. It seems the spawns are indeed sincere." Fang Heng laughed as he looked around and said, "Our vampires have always been cautious. It’s safer this way. After all, Core Flame Ore is a very precious material. Since there are no issues, let’s start transporting the materials." At that moment, Abe Akaya opened an entrance in the forest barrier behind them. The vampires began to walk out of the entrance, continuously carrying crates and loading them onto the ship. Most of the crates were not fully sealed. The Blue Lizard patriarch saw the crates filled with Core Flame Ore and felt some of his doubts dispel, letting out a cold hum. Greedy vampires! They really dared to try to take the Core Flame Ore from the spawns. Just wait. The Blue Lizard patriarch patiently held back, slowly observing the vampires carry crate after crate from the giant tree barrier and load them onto the ship. More than an hour passed. Strange. Why wouldn’t it stop? The Blue Lizard patriarch glanced at the three members of the Evil Clan, silently asking them with his eyes. Wu Yi and her two companions, acting as intermediaries for the negotiation, understood that Fang Heng was stalling and pretended not to notice the elder’s glance. Fine! We’ll wait a little longer! The Blue Lizard patriarch did not urge them. He simply waited for the transport to finish, intending to trap the higher-ranking vampires afterward. After all the vampires had worked so hard in the Land of Ice Soul to extract the ore, it would ultimately be delivered obediently to the ship for the spawns. Two more hours passed, and the Blue Lizard elder’s patience was finally exhausted. He could not hold back any longer and said in a deep voice, "Everyone, it’s already been three hours. How much more material do you need to transport?" Fang Heng’s expression remained calm as he said, "No rush. There’s still a lot left." "Vampires, don’t play tricks on us! It’s just transporting materials. Is it necessary to waste so much time? The spawns’ transport drones can be lent to you for a while. I’ll give you half an hour. If the material transfer isn’t finished by then, the spawns will unilaterally cancel the deal." Fang Heng shrugged, indifferent. The Blue Lizard elder waved his hand, and the spawns’ mechanical units joined the ore transport team. The vampires handled the first half of the transport, while the drones carried the remaining crates onto the ship, greatly improving efficiency. Half an hour later, the elder’s patience had reached its limit. "Vampires, you..." "Almost done. Give me ten more minutes. Besides the materials, our people need to withdraw too," Fang Heng interrupted, stopping the transport before the elder could get angry. He gestured toward the ship, asking, "Do you mind if I board first?" "Hmph!" The Blue Lizard elder snorted coldly and said, "Go ahead." After waiting for nearly four hours, the Blue Lizard Clan finally saw Fang Heng step onto the ship. Their hearts finally relaxed. The Blue Lizard elder exhaled deeply, feeling a sense of closure. His previously tense lips finally relaxed into a relieved smile. He did not know what tricks the vampires had been playing, but after all the stalling, Fang Heng had been coaxed onto the ship. Everything was over. At that moment, the high-tier martial artists lying in ambush on the ship would strike simultaneously, ensuring Fang Heng would die without a trace. The Blue Lizard clan members looked at the ship with resentment in their eyes. Wu Yi and her two Evil Clan companions also turned their gaze toward the ship. Wu Yi asked, "Elder, the spawns wouldn’t have set a trap inside the ship, would they?" By this point, the Blue Lizard elder was too tired to bother pretending. He scoffed lightly, "Even if they did, so what? A mere vampire, a race we’ve never heard of, has the right to negotiate with the spawns?" Wu Yi remained silent, raising her head again to look toward the ship. "What do you mean? You think this guy still has a chance to come out alive?" The Blue Lizard elder noticed something unusual in Wu Yi’s expression. Just as he wondered, he suddenly felt an incredibly strong aura erupt from the ship’s area behind him. What?! The Seed of Ouroboros! A terrifying aura of the Seed of Ouroboros exploded from inside the ship! Looking back, the ship where Fang Heng stood was instantly enveloped in a dense black fog. The ship, shrouded in the black aura, slowly rose into the air. It hovered like a pure black sphere in midair. Inside the sphere, no creatures could be seen, but a sense of absolute desolation radiated from it. It seemed capable of devouring everything, annihilating all that was covered by the black sphere. Not good! Something had gone wrong! Everyone’s gaze was immediately drawn to the black sphere. Two Blue Lizard clan members instinctively stepped forward to help. "Step back!" The Blue Lizard patriarch shouted sharply, his eyes revealing intense caution. During their previous battles with Fang Heng, they had felt similar domain fluctuations, but now what appeared before them was a fully realized higher-level domain. Vampires! How many trump cards were they still hiding? Had Fang Heng used this move in the previous battle with the Blue Lizard clan, the entire clan would have perished under it. Wu Yi stared at the ship, astonishment filling her eyes. What kind of domain ability was this? Her perception could not penetrate even a fraction of the domain. Where did that strength originate? Above the galaxy, the ships in orbit sounded piercing alarms simultaneously. "Report, Captain!" "Speak!" The crew’s voices trembled involuntarily. "Detected an eruption of the Seed of Ouroboros aura. All readings have reached the maximum values the instruments can detect." What was happening? Captain Grandville suddenly felt a chill down his spine, staring at the planet shrouded in black fog in the distance. The Seed of Ouroboros? An off-the-charts aura density? This had never happened before. What exactly was occurring there? Within the Land of Ice Soul, inside the sphere completely covered by darkness, Fang Heng’s retinas flashed with game hints rapidly appearing.
