At 10: 05 pm, Feng Bujue had already retrieved Van Helsing's diary under Gill's lead.
They had also abandoned the police car that they had snatched earlier. At this moment, they were driving another car that they had stolen from the parking lot toward the castle.
At this point, Feng Bujue had successfully excluded all the main characters in the movie from the main plot. The plot of "Prison's Gate" had nothing to do with them anymore.
For him, the next problem was … how to break through the police and military blockade and return to the castle.
…
On the other hand, in the castle, between the thrones.
"The piece of paper in Greedy Wolf's hand … Could it be the map of this castle?" Xiao Ling looked at the crystal ball and read aloud.
"After entering the library, their actions sped up. It was around that time that he took out the kraft paper for the first time …" Ruo Yu continued, "It looks like … he deduced something at that point in time and realized the correct way to use that item."
At this time, the two of them had been monitoring this place for a long time. From their conversation, they knew that the crystal ball could only monitor the opponent from a "visual" perspective. As for what the members of Blades were saying, it could not be heard through the crystal ball.
"It is indeed much faster than expected … In this hour, they have already explored the Underground Water Zone and the Underground Deep Hall. They have also bypassed the Purgatory Fighting Arena and are heading straight for us." Xiao Ling paced a few steps and frowned. "As for our captain … Let's not talk about whether he can make it back before midnight. Even if he does, it will be a problem for him to break through the troops outside the castle …"
As they spoke, Xiao Ling had already walked to the window. She stood on her tiptoes and poked her small head out of the window to look outside.
She saw that … there were dozens of police cars and military jeeps parked on one side of the castle. Although those cars were parked outside the moat and were far away, the row of bright headlights was still quite eye-catching in the dark night.
"What you said makes sense." Suddenly, Dracula's voice sounded from not far away as he replied.
Ruo Yu and Xiao Ling turned their heads and found the Count in the shadows a few meters away.
"I've been putting up with them for a long time …" Mister Vampire could be said to appear and disappear like a ghost. After Feng Bujue left, he and his minions left the throne room one after another. No one knew what they were busy with. Now, he appeared here like a ghost.
"Although there is a barrier blocking it, they are blocking the entrance of the castle. It will definitely inconvenience Mr. F," Dracula said. "I think … let me deal with it."
"Deal with them?" Ruo Yu's expression changed slightly. "You mean to kill them all?"
"We don't have to kill them all," Dracula said. "Just kill them all until they lose the will to fight."
"Are you sure you can do it?" Ruo Yu continued. "In the past 100 years, the development of human military technology has been more rapid than in the past 1,000 years. They have heavy firepower weapons in their hands that you have never seen before."
"Humph …" Dracula snorted coldly. "Thank you for your reminder, but you are obviously overthinking it …" he replied confidently. "Even if I am in purgatory, I can still see things in this world."
This line explained why he could drive, why he knew that the anti-UV film could block the sun, and why he could tell that the "old house" was the old site of his castle, and other illogical situations.
"Dealing with those people outside is a piece of cake for me." After saying this, Dracula levitated on the spot and turned into a bat with a wisp of green smoke. Then … he flew out of the window directly.
After he flew away, Spirity spoke again. "This count seems to really treat the leader as an ally …" She shook her head and sighed. "Sigh … It's a pity that the 'side mission' has destined us to betray him …"
"Shh … Keep your voice down …" Ruo Yu heard her and immediately made a shushing gesture at Xiao Ling. "Be careful, the walls have ears …"
…
At the same time, at the top level of Demon Castle.
"Phew … They sure are hard to deal with …" Long Aomin sighed in relief after using his shield to hammer a large demonic monster to death.
Not far away, Seven Kills and Greedy Wolf worked together to kill a white-haired succubus with strange wings on its back. It looked like … they had exhausted quite a bit of their stamina as well.
"Hah … I didn't think … it would still take so long even after I sped up the pace …" Greedy Wolf panted heavily. "But … this should be the last area …" As he spoke, he took out the map and looked at it. "There's no other place to explore. According to my memory of playing Hellion's Citadel, the room in the middle of [Hellion's Citadel's Highest Level] is where the boss is …"
"Speaking of the boss …" Seven Kills added, "Do you think we'll run into the Demon King Dracula mentioned in the introductory cinematic … or Feng Bujue?"
"Well …" Greedy Wolf had already adjusted his breathing in those few seconds. "From how I see it … the chance of both is very high. Other than that … don't forget that other than Feng Bujue, there are three other people in Underworld Frontline. The members of Blade still don't know about Xiao Tan's death."
"Then, aren't we going to die?" Brother Long was a straightforward person, and he did not like to beat around the bush. He asked a direct question.
"That might not be the case," Greedy Wolf replied. "I've explained the reason before. Currently, Feng Bujue's focus is not on us. This is our chance."
"Based on what you're saying … could it be …" Seven Kills said casually, "… that when we reach the last room, we will run into Feng Bujue fighting the boss?"
"Yes, that's what I'm betting on." To his surprise, Greedy Wolf nodded. "Why don't we review the overall situation? First, at the start of the game, the sudden system setting was quite advantageous for us. That was until Defeating Armies and I were tricked by the enemy, and we were almost killed by the Blood Corpse God. From then on, we were at a disadvantage. Then, when the three of us met up, Feng Bujue had basically finished borrowing the power. Then, from the evening until now, we've been exploring and fighting non-stop, and the people from Underworld Frontline are nowhere to be seen. "As he spoke, he started to move forward. At the same time, he signaled for his teammates to follow." Overall, Underworld Frontline is one step ahead of us in all aspects, but this' lead 'has to come with a price. For example, killing Defeating Armies, the Blood Corpse God is the price. Then, for' borrowing power '… to borrow the strongest' power 'of a scenario boss, one has to hand over some kind of material or complete some kind of event. And Feng Bujue is so much ahead of us in terms of 'time', that is illogical. Therefore, my speculation is that the 'power' he borrowed is not really reliable, and there has to be some kind of hidden danger behind it. "
"Then, what if … you're wrong?" Seven Kills' expression shifted slightly, and he said in a low voice, "What if Feng Bujue really has that ability … to obtain such a huge advantage with such unreasonable efficiency?"
"Hah …" Before Greedy Wolf could answer, Long Aomin laughed openly. "Do you still need to ask? If that's the case, then we can only … "
Whoosh!
Suddenly, a strange sound interrupted Brother Long's words.
At that moment, it was too late! Following the sound, a transparent ray shot through the air and aimed right at Greedy Wolf's heart.
Seeing this, Long Aomin activated the skill, Guardian Charge, and instantly stood before his teammates to protect them.
At that moment, if he wanted to save a skill, he might have to pay a heavy price. A player at Brother Long's level would not make that kind of mistake.
The next second, Orehalgan's Shield glowed, and the ray that hit the shield dissipated. Long Aomin and Greedy Wolf, who stood behind the shield, were unharmed.
"Oh, oh … That was dangerous," Long Aomin said after he pulled back his skill. "He launched such a deadly attack without warning …"
Brother Long said that because he knew very well that the ray that hit the shield … was powerful enough to kill Greedy Wolf instantly.
The ray might not have caused any damage, but in terms of damage, it was no weaker than a special bullet fired from a sniper rifle. The reason it was blocked perfectly was undoubtedly due to Long Aomin's ability.
To be more specific, Brother Long not only used the defensive effect of Guardian Charge, he also used the two special effects of Orehalgan's Shield. First of all, with the help of Orichalcum's enchantment, he converted the "thrust" and "penetration" of the ray into "vibration" and distributed the force to the entire shield. Second, the ray triggered Orichalcum Toritos, which had a 300% defense effect against magic and all flying items.
In other words, with an active skill, a passive effect, and a trigger effect, Brother Long was able to complete this perfect defense.
It looked like a simple defense, but it was actually a skill that only a top player could pull off.
"You're overthinking it …" Seven Kills, who was several meters away, heard Brother Long's words and added with a smile, "Do you think he's the type to greet us?" Then, he turned to face the enemy and got into a battle stance.
At that moment, Long Aomin and Greedy Wolf poked their heads out from the side and above the shield respectively to look in the direction of the ray.
From their perspective … the thing standing there was a fish spirit that was covered in crocodile armor and had a face that looked like Murky.
"Hey …" When Brother Long saw the monster, his expression shifted. "That ray earlier … it couldn't have been its saliva, right?"
The reason he asked that was because he had studied the monster from head to toe. He did not see any weapon that could be used for long-range attacks, so … he could only assume that the monster used its body to launch the ray.
Whoosh!
Two seconds later, the gill-man used its action to answer Brother Long's question.
It pouted its fish mouth and shot out another transparent ray. This time, its target was Seven Kills.
"Ha! Stop dreaming! " Seven Kills dodged the attack easily and yelled, "With this kind of speed, even if I'm a child, I can still dodge it!"
Right then, Greedy Wolf, who was hiding behind Brother Long, suddenly turned to shout at Seven Kills, "Seven Kills, I'll leave it to you."
"Huh?" Seven Kills was startled. "What do you mean by 'leave it to me'? This is obviously a mini boss, and you want me to deal with it alone? "
As he spoke, the gill-man fired two more rays at Seven Kills. Seven Kills continued to talk as he dodged the attacks.
"Because Brother Long and I are very busy here …" When Greedy Wolf replied, he had already turned to run back, and his target … was a mummy that was slowly approaching them from behind.
"Then …" One second later, Brother Long raised his head to look at a chandelier. At that moment, on the chain of the chandelier, there was a muscular werewolf. "… So, you're my opponent?"
"Ao!" The werewolf replied to Brother Long with a howl and leaped from the air.
"Humph …" Long Aomin's lips curled into a smile. He raised his shield and swung his arm. "You're throwing an egg at a rock!"
After he finished speaking, he used the [Shield Bash] skill.
[Name: Shield Bash]

Duang~
The werewolf fell from the sky and was unable to change direction in midair. Therefore, he was' bashed 'by Brother Long.
The Stamina Points used for this attack might not be high, but it was incredibly powerful. This was especially true for a man like Brother Long who was as tough as an iron wall. The damage from that bash was even worse than Brother Jue's Flying Dragon Fist.
The werewolf's physique was already quite large, but after being bashed by Brother Long's 1.7-meter-tall 'child', the werewolf was sent flying for about eight meters. He slammed into the wall with a loud boom, creating a large dent in the thick gray stone wall.
"Er …" However, after a few seconds, the werewolf quickly climbed out from the wall and regained his balance.
"Good … This is what makes it interesting." Facing a strong enemy, Brother Long's fighting spirit rose, and he could not help but reveal a look of excitement.
On the other side, Greed had already arrived in front of the mummy.
His weapon was a stone hammer. It looked as simple as a store-bought hammer, but its quality was legendary.
"Since you're already a mummy, you should be lying in a museum for children to learn from. It's not right for you to wander about!" When Greedy Wolf attacked, he did not forget to educate the mummy. "… Let me hand you over to the country!"
