Chapter 318: Chapter 19: The Thirteen Blood Moon Kingdoms, Dark Currents and Crisis

Perhaps the other party had only appeared wearing a human guise. It was hard to say for sure.

He recalled the words of the projection sent by the Seventh Blood Ancestor.

The projection had said it suspected the presence of an extraterritorial visitor, though it wasn’t entirely certain.

But the epicenter of the foreseen storm, the cause of it all, would most likely originate from a small Human Race border city named Brighton.

So, whether it was true or not,

the First Blood Race Prince still followed the instructions and immediately dispatched a Blood Guard, ordering the destitute Blood Race of the borderlands to conduct a probe.

He adopted the attitude that it was better to be safe than sorry.

And to be cautious and avoid stirring up an even bigger storm,

the scope of this initial probe was strictly controlled by the Blood Race Prince.

After all, if they really did encounter an extraterritorial visitor, who knew how powerful they might be?

If he angered the visitor right off the bat, wouldn’t the Hamilton Blood Moon Kingdom become the first to suffer the consequences?

To that end, the First Prince’s thinking was quite simple.

Even if the extraterritorial visitor was real, he had to be cautious. At the very least, he couldn’t afford to completely infuriate them right away.

He would probe first and see what happened.

If their existence was confirmed, he would immediately pull back his forces.

He would also maintain silence. As for what came next, this First Blood Race Prince would, of course, immediately contact the other Blood Moon Kingdoms.

If someone had to get hurt, how could he let it be only the Hamilton Blood Moon Kingdom?

The other twelve Blood Moon Kingdoms wouldn’t be allowed to stay out of it.

This was what the First Prince was really thinking.

And as his Blood Guard, Maureen Merrick would naturally execute this order with strict precision.

Therefore, he would not personally act during this probe. In fact, the moment something was confirmed, he would immediately order these little Blood Race fledglings to cease their attack and retreat.

It had to be said,

the First Blood Race Prince of the Hamilton Blood Moon Kingdom was no fool.

After all, he had lived for countless years.

But, for all his careful calculations, he failed to account for one thing: though his Blood Guard possessed the power of a Duke, under the suppression of this world’s rules, his strength was only equivalent to Tier Five.

And how could a Tier Five member of the Blood Race possibly escape the notice of He’an and his companions?

In fact, even if He’an himself wasn’t a Tier Five Professional, he could still rely on the digitized vision the True Game granted him to instantly notice this individual, with large, shimmering golden characters floating above his head.

[Name: Maureen Merrick]

[Race: Blood Race]

[Equivalent Tier: Tier Eight (Sealed, Tier Five)]

[Skills: 1. Bat Transformation; 2. Shadow Stealth; 3. Blood Burst; 4. Bloodline First Embrace; 5. Bloodline Rebirth; 6. Blood Mist Touch; 7. Blood Shadow Thousand Assaults, 8. Soul Shock; 9. Blood Sacrifice; 10. Blood Bat Amplification...]

[Identity: From the Hamilton Blood Moon Kingdom, one of the three Dark Guards of the First Blood Race Prince.]

It was quite a shock. While He’an was using the stealth function of his Imperial Standard Professional Combat Suit to scout the Blood Race army, he entered an area and saw a brilliant golden data panel suddenly materialize in the darkness. He froze, completely stunned.

’A High Tier member of the Blood Race.’

’His power is suppressed, but he’s still Tier Five, and the number of Skills he has is just ridiculous.’

’A full 18 Skills.’

’And every single Skill befits his High Tier status.’

"I’ve hit the jackpot!"

’And he’s a Prince’s Dark Guard from the so-called Blood Race Realm... Have they discovered our infiltration? Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence? Why would a member of the Blood Race with his status come to this remote part of the Earth Realm?’

’Did one of the local Deities discover something?’

This was He’an’s immediate thought.

His brow furrowed instantly.
