Chapter 3467: GatheringEditor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

"Form up!"

The elite Holy Realm Knight Legion at the front quickly formed a formation. Their shields slammed heavily into the sticky fungal ground, and the Holy Light barrier expanded outward.

The tumor creatures collided with the light screen, their exteriors sizzling under the holy flame’s burn, spraying corrosive pus, but the barrier blocked it all.

Great Sage Aladdin stepped forward and raised his hand, pressing it forward in the air.

Golden runes appeared floating in the air.

Holy Light radiated brilliantly.

Under the illumination of the Holy Light, the tumors suddenly slowed dramatically.

The adjudicators in the rear simultaneously released judgmental light beams, completely shredding the tumorous creatures that rolled forward.

"Hold position! Maintain the barrier!" the knight commander shouted.

The battle lasted briefly, and as the hell creatures’ wave of attack ended, the remaining tumors retreated into cracks in the rock wall under the suppression of the Holy Light. The cavern’s center returned to calm, leaving only the heavy breathing of the Holy Paladins.

Huh?

Someone?

Suddenly, the Holy Paladins sensed an aura ripple coming from the right side. They all turned to look and reopened the holy barriers on alert.

Soon, a human team of more than thirty emerged from the hellish red mist.

"To those opposite! I am Chen Yu, Eastern Federation operations chief!"

Dormer heard the shout from across and was somewhat surprised.

After the hell rift incident, each federation responded according to the Central Federation’s division of labor. The Eastern Federation was primarily responsible for guarding the hell rift.

Previously, Dormer had communicated with the Eastern Federation and heard they had sent a team to explore the cavern.

Dormer had never taken it seriously.

But unexpectedly, they had met here.

This was the seventy-seventh layer of hell!

Even with a God King leading, it had taken them more than two days to reach here, facing countless dangers.

Perhaps because the Eastern Federation’s people were behind them, those dangers had been cleared in advance?

Dormer pondered quietly.

Chen Yu and his team slowly approached.

Great Sage Aladdin looked at Fang Heng among the opposing team and felt that the person radiated a holy attribute aura, with a somewhat familiar face.

He asked uncertainly, "Archbishop Fang Bai?"

Instantly, everyone’s gaze gathered on Fang Heng.

Dormer’s heart skipped a beat as he looked toward Fang Heng.

Fang Heng!

Before he could react, two adjutants raised their guns simultaneously, aiming at Fang Heng.

"Splash, splash, splash..."

Immediately, the accompanying Central Federation and Western Region Federation teams raised their guns in caution. Several human cyborgs also took up defensive postures.

The Central Federation’s investigation into Fang Heng had never stopped. After the previous Titan incident, they unexpectedly discovered a connection between Fang Heng and Fang Bai.

Though his appearance had changed somewhat, from his behavior, speech, and subtle habits, they were certain Fang Heng and Fang Bai were 100% the same person.

It should be noted that Fang Heng’s name was still on the Central Federation’s secret wanted list.

Due to the gravity of the matter, the analysis report was circulated only within the Central Federation.

Afterwards, the Central Federation contacted the Holy Realm through various channels.

The Holy Realm was still searching for Archbishop Fang Bai and found the news very strange.

To think the mainframe that led the undead in wars against their Holy Court across worlds, one of the demonic seeds, the source of the Ouroboros Disaster, and the vampire leader...

Was the new vampire inheritor and their Great Sage the same person?

Upon hearing this news, the Holy Court almost exploded with rage.

After the Federation provided relevant evidence, the Holy Realm remained skeptical.

Now, seeing Fang Heng’s face clearly, along with the Mag Clan members, obviously hell creatures accompanying him, the Holy Realm’s suspicion of Fang Heng deepened.

Fang Heng showed a calm expression and nodded to Aladdin.

"What a coincidence, you’re here too."

He had heard that the Holy Court had sent people to investigate the hell rift, but hadn’t expected them to have penetrated this deep.

"Fang Heng! Stop pretending!" Dormer stared at Fang Heng, demanding, "We already know your true identity! Is the hell rift incident connected to you?"

The Central Federation team did not dare to underestimate the situation.

According to internal data, Fang Heng belonged to the Demi-Human Tribe and was extremely formidable.

Furthermore, judging from various in-game information, Fang Heng himself was one of the hell demonic seeds.

It was highly likely that the real-world hell rift incidents were related to Fang Heng.

It might even have been opened by him!

Zane watched the tense standoff between the two sides, secretly amused.

Dormer was not wrong; the hell rift really had significant ties to Fang Heng.

So what?

Did they really think they could capture Fang Heng with these beam weapons?

"Ahem," Chen Yu saw the tension and stepped forward, blocking Fang Heng, signaling both sides to calm down. "Everyone, Mr. Fang Heng is an expert we invited from the Eastern Federation to assist with the hell rift. We from the Eastern Federation can vouch for him."

Dormer stared at Fang Heng.

Solve the problem?

Was he really so kind?

Dormer said coldly, "Fang Heng, we have solid evidence linking you to several recent destruction incidents at Central Federation research institutes. What do you have to say?"

"I don’t know." Fang Heng glanced at Dormer with a hint of provocation, coldly asking, "What? Are you going to take me in for questioning right now?"

Dormer was irritated by Fang Heng’s fearless attitude.

"Fang Heng! Don’t think I don’t dare."

Current Federation data rated Fang Heng’s strength as the most dangerous SSS level.

With the Hell Orb now in hand and cooperation between Central Federation and Western District Federation at full force, they were confident they could bring Fang Heng back.

But he had reservations.

If they acted, they would inevitably suffer losses.

What he most suspected was Fang Heng’s purpose here.

Could it also be for the Hell Orb?

During the deadlock, the crowd behind gradually parted.

A young man stepped forward, scrutinizing Fang Heng with a smile and bowed slightly, saying, "Thank you."

Fang Heng looked at the newcomer, puzzled. "Who are you?"

"I am God King Aetheros. Great Sage Fang Bai, we have met before. Last time, it was your help in the Holy Realm incident that allowed us to resolve it. I have always wanted to thank you in person."

"God King?"

Fang Heng was somewhat surprised and measured the God King with his eyes.

The God King looked young, with extremely condensed holy power.

Interesting.

He had heard the God King had stayed in the Holy Realm after the godly orb lost its golden mesh limitation. He hadn’t expected him to appear here.

He wondered how the God King’s strength compared to the God Clan.

At least judging by pressure, the God King was much weaker.

They were not on the same level at all.

The Holy Court’s guardian knights noticed Fang Heng’s blunt scrutiny and felt rather displeased.

Not only them, but any Great Sage would also show utmost respect toward the God King. There was no one as reckless as Fang Heng.

It seemed the Central Federation’s claims were not baseless; Fang Heng’s identity was indeed problematic.
