Chapter 233 Mobile Blood Station?
by AshPurgatory2025Li Guo had mentioned to him before that the Bloodlines of the Soul Split Group were basically all Vampires!
It was naturally easier for them to go to the Vampire World than for others.
“I hope these guys don’t get in my way.”
Si Yan thought.
Si Yan looked at the contents of the invitation.
“instance Name: Vampire Celebration!”
“instance Introduction: This is a Vampire Prince’s millennium birthday celebration, attended by many Vampires, a grand event in the Vampire World.”
“instance Difficulty: Level Nine!”
“Basic Task: Enter the Vampire Celebration. The instance can be left once the celebration is complete.”
“Risk Warning:”
Damn it!
Level Nine?
It’s already reached this level?
Si Yan muttered softly.
A Prince’s celebration, who knows how many Vampires would be there.
And these Vampires were all incredibly powerful!
The purpose of inviting players might also be to sample the blood of players from the real world, just like many instances in the Vampire World.
Although Princess Vera, as a high-ranking Bloodline, had long since gotten rid of her dependence on human blood, how many Vampires like Princess Vera were there?
A large number of Vampires were still very interested in human blood.
“Which guys snatched the invitations?”
Si Yan couldn’t help but feel a little curious.
A Level Nine instance, and they were still snatching invitations!
Could it really be people from the Soul Split Group?
At this moment, he again felt Virginia’s summons.
So Si Yan appeared in the Vampire World.
“Teacher, the Prince’s celebration starts tomorrow. Tomorrow is mainly the part where Nobles present gifts. When will you go?”
Virginia asked after seeing Si Yan.
“I will go after nightfall tonight.”
Si Yan said.
“Teacher is going tonight?”
Virginia asked.
Si Yan stroked her little head: “Yes, I’ll go check it out first. It’s not too late for you to come tomorrow.”
“Okay. Oh, and Teacher, we’ve prepared some gifts. You can give them to Princess Vera tomorrow.”
Virginia and Virginia brought over a box.
Si Yan saw that the box contained some exquisite gifts.
A Vampire Prince, and a millennium birthday celebration, would naturally be incredibly grand, with an unknown number of Vampires attending.
Tomorrow would be an entire day of gift-giving!
It would take a whole day, or even more, to receive the gifts from the Vampire Nobles.
Virginia had been very thoughtful.
She even prepared a gift for Si Yan, so he could give it to Princess Vera.
It was also possible that this was Vladimir’s arrangement.
In terms of social etiquette, she certainly couldn’t compare to Vladimir.
“Virginia, it’s not necessary. I have a gift prepared. You can keep yours.”
Si Yan said, stroking Virginia’s head.
Seeing that Si Yan had a gift prepared, Virginia didn’t insist.
Considering that Princess Vera liked music, Si Yan equipped the Mystic Artist profession and taught Virginia a few piano pieces.
Afterward, Si Yan left the Vampire World.
On the Player Forum, this instance of Princess Vera’s millennium celebration didn’t cause much of a stir.
Because the invitations were snatched up as soon as they appeared.
Hardly anyone noticed.
As soon as the time came, Si Yan was pulled into the instance.
Soon, a vast palace filled with roses appeared in his sight.
The Rose Palace!
This was Princess Vera’s royal palace!
In the Vampire Holy City, where every inch of land was precious, owning such a large complex of buildings meant Princess Vera’s wealth and status were at the top tier in the Vampire World.
Si Yan appeared outside a small square outside the palace.
One side of this small square was connected to a larger square.
He could see people coming and going in the large square.
Although the celebration wouldn’t start until tomorrow, a large number of Vampires had already traveled to the Holy City specifically for Princess Vera’s birthday celebration.
Immediately after, figures began to appear one after another beside Si Yan.
Other players had also arrived.
“Westerners!”
At a glance, Si Yan realized something was off.
Among these players, there were Westerners!
They had also appeared when he went to Vladimir’s place before.
However…
These Westerners this time looked very organized!
An organization?
And quite a few of them!
The dozen or so players who appeared consecutively were all Westerners with prominent noses and large builds!
These Westerners kept appearing.
One by one, after appearing, they began communicating in a Western language.
In the Horror Space, there was no need to worry about communication issues.
No matter what type of Gui Creature, you would have no problem communicating with them.
It was equivalent to having a built-in translator.
But if they encountered Western Players, and they spoke a Western language, it wouldn’t be automatically translated.
The same logic applied.
If Si Yan spoke an Eastern language, these guys wouldn’t understand unless they had studied it.
“Hahaha, Charlie, we’re in! This time we must get a perfect rating and reclaim the Vampire World. This instance belongs to us Westerners!”
“Shh! There’s an Easterner!”
“Damn it, the people we bribed should have snatched all the invitations. How could there be an Easterner?”
Si Yan heard every word the Westerners said clearly.
He could also understand them.
After all, it wasn’t very difficult English.
However, his face remained expressionless, appearing as if he hadn’t understood what they were saying.
“He probably doesn’t understand us~”
“Better safe than sorry. Let’s not talk for now~”
Those Westerners all shut their mouths.
“All Western Players?”
Western Players were still arriving continuously.
“So, these guys snatched all the invitations?”
Si Yan thought.
It seemed the invitations were snatched by people bribed by these Western Players!
“So, these guys want to take over the Vampire World?”
Si Yan thought.
instances could also be contended for?
This was truly a blind spot in Si Yan’s knowledge!
These Western guys coming in this time were very likely here to contend for the instance!
This instance had already reached Level Nine.
These Western Players, who knows where they got the information, had probably been planning for a very long time.
They wanted to get an SSS rating in this instance!
Did they want to control the Vampire instance?
Si Yan speculated.
However, this situation was unlikely.
Previously, Si Yan had only helped out at Mingyue Mountain Manor.
Si Yan still couldn’t control an entire instance.
That was just wishful thinking on the part of those players.
What exactly did these people want to do?
Si Yan’s expression remained unchanged.
At this moment, a few Eastern Players finally appeared.
These Eastern Players looked terribly pale.
“Vampires!”
Si Yan took just one look and confirmed that these Eastern Players were indeed players with Vampire Bloodlines!
He then saw that one of the players was someone Si Yan knew.
A branch chairman of the Soul Split Group!
This branch chairman’s eyes lit up when he saw Si Yan.
Immediately, he also saw the many Westerners.
“As expected, there’s a problem. I knew it wasn’t normal for the invitations to disappear so quickly. Even we only managed to snatch one. So it’s these Western organization guys!”
An Eastern Player said in a deep voice.
There were a total of 5 Eastern Players, and it seemed they had entered together.
These 5 Eastern Players should all be from the Soul Split Group, and all possessed Vampire Bloodlines.
Judging by the branch chairman’s attitude, this guy was not the strongest among these 5 Eastern Players.
When Si Yan first participated in the Vampire Castle instance, he hadn’t actually noticed.
He only realized it now.
All the other instances he had participated in before, except for Yin Spring Inn and Vampire Castle, seemingly had no Westerners!
Was there some connection here?
“Heh, these guys, aren’t they giving up yet? Luckily, Chairman He was brilliant. After sensing something was wrong, he brought us in.”
Another Eastern Player said.
“Don’t talk yet, they might understand.”
Among the 5 people, the chairman, who held the highest position, spoke.
The chairman’s expression was not at all relaxed.
As Vampires, the Soul Split Group naturally intended to participate in Princess Vera’s celebration this time.
They also had some dealings in the Vampire World.
Who would have thought that when they tried to transfer invitations, they couldn’t transfer any!
This made the people of the Soul Split Group realize something was wrong.
Although this chairman of the Soul Split Group didn’t know what had happened, seeing the situation was unfavorable, he quickly mobilized a large number of players from the Soul Split Group.
But they only managed to snatch one!
They came specifically for this instance!
Although he brought in 4 strong Eastern Players using a team-up voucher.
But the Western Players were coming in strong this time, having almost snatched all the invitations!
“I should have invited an Elder or notified the Player Alliance. This matter should be handled by them.”
The chairman felt the gravity of the situation.
This time, the Western Player organization was playing dirty.
Except for the Soul Split Group, who happened to be entering this instance and noticed the anomaly, other Eastern Players were completely unaware.
“Chairman, that’s Si Yan.”
The branch chairman whispered to the chairman.
Si Yan!
These two words made the other four players, including the chairman, all shift their expressions.
They looked up and saw Si Yan.
Although they had never met Si Yan, they had all seen his photos.
They recognized Si Yan at first glance.
“Si Yan, why is he here too? This is a Level Nine difficulty instance!”
One player was puzzled.
The chairman, however, stepped towards Si Yan.
Soon, these players arrived in front of Si Yan.
“Si Yan!”
The branch chairman greeted Si Yan warmly.
“Hello, Si Yan. I am Chairman He of the Soul Split Group. I didn’t expect you to enter this instance as well. The situation this time is quite grim. These Western guys are mostly here to snatch the Vampire World, and they will attack us if they get the chance.”
“After the game starts, try to stick with us. We will do our best to protect you. If it really doesn’t work out, we can only withdraw.”
The chairman said to Si Yan in a serious and low voice.
Before Si Yan could answer, the Horror Space’s notification sound rang out!
“Ding-dong! Game Start!”
“Number of players this round: 35!”
“Task for this round: Enter the Vampire Celebration and survive until the celebration is complete to finish the task!”
“Task Reward: 10000 ghost coins, 50 points!”
“Hint: Please do not leave the celebration area midway, otherwise unpredictable consequences may occur!”
The game started!
Inside the Rose Palace, a Vampire in a refined tailcoat walked over, escorted by two Vampire guards in red suits.
Seeing this, both the Western Players and the few players from the Soul Split Group tacitly closed their mouths.
This Vampire soon arrived in front of the many players.
His gaze swept over the many players, then he frowned slightly.
Because he found that among the players this time, many themselves possessed Vampire Bloodlines!
Out of the 6 Eastern Players, all except Si Yan possessed Vampire Bloodlines.
Among the 29 Western Players, several also possessed Vampire Bloodlines.
Moreover, the number of people didn’t match the number of invitations issued by the Rose Palace.
There were exactly 5 extra people!
These 5 extra people were Si Yan and the 4 people from the Soul Split Group who had entered using team-up vouchers.
Although the number and types of players had changed this time, the Vampire’s expression didn’t change much.
He still maintained an elegant posture, then spoke.
“Your task this time is very simple. You will, along with other humans, be responsible for the transportation and distribution of tea and desserts for the celebration. If a Noble is thirsty and wants a sip of blood, you must unconditionally satisfy their request.”
The tailcoated Vampire said.
As expected!
Si Yan had guessed correctly!
The Rose Palace issuing invitations this time was indeed planning to use players as mobile blood banks!
For Vampires, this was not a heinous act.
It was like at a human gathering, the host preparing freshly caught live fish for you.
If you fancy one, you directly choose a lively fish, and the host then has the chef prepare it.
Only Vampires were more direct.
If they were thirsty, they could drink immediately.
And not just players.
It seemed that this celebration also prepared a large number of native humans, and players and native humans would jointly be responsible for transporting tea and desserts and the like.
Players and native humans themselves were also considered “desserts” at the celebration.
Princess Vera might not drink blood, but that didn’t mean other Vampire Nobles didn’t need it!
As the host this time, the Rose Palace certainly had to entertain all the Vampire Nobles well, otherwise, wouldn’t it make the Rose Palace seem stingy?
Moreover, this matter might not be Princess Vera’s idea.
Even the invitations should not have been personally issued by Princess Vera.
A dignified Vampire Prince, a Ghost Saint-level existence.
It was impossible for her to personally arrange such trivial matters.
This in itself was an arrangement found at some large celebrations in the Vampire World.
At a celebration, arranging some “desserts” or “snacks” was not a very normal thing?
Except these snacks weren’t cakes.
They were humans!
Si Yan’s invitation as a guest was Vladimir’s intention.
Therefore, for now, there shouldn’t be any major problems! (End of Chapter)
