Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game

Chapter 2405  Jewelry

During this period, Sandy finally completed the systematic translation of all the ancient books with the help of several elders from the Soul tribe.

After carefully reviewing and sorting through the various ancient texts, Sandy made some discoveries.

"Mr. Fang, I can now confirm that the vampire primogenitor was cursed by the Holy Court, severely suppressing his power. After that, he forcefully broke through space to escape, and by the time he accidentally entered the World of Forests, he was already gravely injured."

"To survive, the vampire primogenitor sought help from the tree spirit tribe to lift the curse left on him by the Holy Realm."

Sandy glanced at the elders from the Soul tribe who were helping with the translation in the hall, paused for a moment, and continued, "Mr. Fang, you know the nature of the tree spirit tribe; they weren't interested in putting in a lot of effort to help an outsider like him."

"Ahem, please continue," Fang Heng said, understanding their temperament. It was already generous of the tree spirit tribe not to drive the vampire primogenitor away.

"At that time, the vampire primogenitor had also lost the ability to teleport, so he chose to temporarily stay in the Inner World. Somehow, he came into contact with the seal of the demonic seed of Pride."

One of the elders from the Soul tribe nodded and continued, "The records state that the sealed land of the demonic seed would leak a small amount of pollution every day, and the tree spirit tribe had poor cleanup capabilities for this pollution. The vampire primogenitor claimed to possess a special ability from the Holy Realm that could effectively dispel this pollution."

"Exactly!" Sandy nodded. "The vampire primogenitor took advantage of this ability to temporarily stay within the tree spirit tribe and relied on the power of their sacred tree to stabilize the curse for a time."

"Then, coincidentally, after the vampire primogenitor had stayed with the tree spirit tribe for a while, the Nightfall Stone began to show signs of damage, and the aura of the demonic seed leaked significantly."

"At that moment, the vampire primogenitor proposed a trade to the tree spirit tribe, offering a holy weapon he had brought from the Holy Realm as a substitute for the Nightfall Stone to seal the demonic seed."

"Of course, in exchange, the tree spirit tribe needed to help him resolve the curse within him."

Upon hearing this, Fang Heng finally understood everything.

What a coincidence!

The damage to the Nightfall Stone was most likely a scheme orchestrated by the vampire primogenitor behind the scenes.

Mo Jiawei quickly grasped the situation as well, scoffing slightly, "So it turns out that the escape of the demonic seed is related to that guy, the vampire primogenitor. He's quite the schemer."

Gu Qingzhu pursed her lips and pondered, "What you've just said is merely speculation based on the ancient books. Do you have more evidence to prove this?"

"Yes, I conducted partial tests on the damaged Nightfall Stone, including an energy fluctuation test. I compared it to the energy fluctuation found in the remains of the Vampire King and found some overlaps." n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Qiu Yaokang, who was standing nearby, nodded and added, "This confirms that there is indeed a relationship between the two. It serves as a piece of evidence that at least confirms the Vampire King had come into contact with the energy of the Nightfall Stone and had used its energy to suppress the curse, but the overall effect was poor."

"Um..." Mo Jiawei hesitated and asked, "Is it possible that the vampire primogenitor tried to use the Nightfall Stone to suppress the curse on himself and accidentally messed it up, damaging the Nightfall Stone in the process?"

"It's possible, but we can't verify that now."

"Well, that's not important," Fang Heng said, stroking his chin. He then turned to Sandy and asked, "Now I'm curious, what did the vampire primogenitor use to help the tree spirit tribe temporarily seal the demonic seed?"

"Haha, Mr. Fang, you're truly sharp!" Sandy exclaimed, clapping his hands in praise. "You've hit the nail on the head. The vampire primogenitor provided the tree spirit tribe with an extremely important item, said to be a treasure he brought from the Holy Realm—something you'll never guess!"

Everyone's curiosity was piqued, and they urged, "Don't keep us in suspense. What is it?"

"The legacy of the Great Sage from the Holy Court! The ancient texts say that this item can release a powerful wave of holy energy, perfectly substituting the Nightfall Stone as the core for suppressing pollution, and it's even more effective than the Nightfall Stone!"

A legacy? The Great Sage?

Fang Heng's heart stirred. "So the vampire primogenitor brought something from the Holy Realm?"

"Right! Exactly!"

Sandy snapped his fingers, his tone becoming more excited as he continued, "According to the records in the ancient books, when the tree spirit tribe first conducted tests with the new suppression item, its effects were excellent, able to greatly suppress the aura of the demonic seed. The tree spirit tribe fell for the vampire primogenitor's tricks and made a deal with him."

"But just a few years later, the effectiveness of the suppression item began to decline until it completely lost its function. By that time, when the tree spirit tribe wanted to find the vampire primogenitor, it was already too late—he had vanished without a trace."

"When the tree spirit tribe realized the problem, they were furious, but they had no way to retaliate. They were simultaneously facing the erupting demonic seed and didn't have the time to seek revenge against the vampire primogenitor. Over time, the issues caused by the sacred tree suppressing the demonic seed grew worse, eventually leading to the holy war between the tree spirit tribe and the demonic seed... Well, we all know what happened after that."

Fang Heng nodded, exchanging a glance with Mo Jiawei.

From the information they had previously gathered, the vampire primogenitor had been imprisoned by the Holy Court for a grave crime. Could that grave crime have been theft?

A treasure capable of suppressing the demonic seed of Pride...

It shouldn't be some worthless junk, right?

Fang Heng asked, "Is that suppression item still around?"

"Hehe, of course, it has been found," Sandy replied, nodding. "I've checked many ancient books. After the suppression item became ineffective, it was stored in the Elders Council, gathering dust. Later, when the tree spirit tribe was destroyed and the Inner World was reopened, various clans searched meticulously and found it, but they didn't pay it much attention."

"Recently, when the Soul tribe cleaned up the Inner World, they brought out many old items stored in the Elders Council and relocated them to the newly established temple in the outside world."

As he spoke, Sandy gestured to two elders from the Soul tribe behind him. One of the guards approached, carrying a tray.

On the tray rested a worn crown.

"Based on my comparison with the descriptions in the ancient books, this should be it—the King's crown. It does seem to have lost its power."

As the guard placed the tray in front of Fang Heng, he leaned down to observe it closely.

The crown looked like it was made of some kind of metal, its surface significantly corroded, resembling an old, worn-out artifact that had just been unearthed.

Fang Heng reached out and gently touched the crown.

It felt quite rough in his hand, with no reaction at all.

[Item: Worn King's crown.]

Description: Appears to be a craft item, with a high degree of corrosion on the surface, making it difficult to fetch a good price.
