---- Chapter 2935 Angotur Harbor had originally been disguised as a small civilian port, unremarkable and easily overlooked. Holtrien''s military had conducted secret operations there for years, and it had always been safe. But this time, it had been exposed without any warning, and Reginald had no concrete information on which force had attacked it. Breaking out of the forest, Andrew''s eyes widened at the sight ahead. Before him stretched the vast open sea, and in the bayy a small port. Smoke rose from the harbor, which had already been struck by heavy fire.
Ships docked at the piers were almost all destroyed, and several had already capsized into the water. A cold light shed in Andrew''s eyes as he signaled Nyx and silently approached the port. Soon, he climbed aboard arge ship. The deck was eerily quiet, with no sentries in sight. When their eyes met, Nyx''s expression was filled with suspicion. "You take the upper deck, I''ll go below," she said with the instincts of a seasoned assassin, quickly disappearing to the lower levels. ---- Andrew climbed to the top deck, observing the signs of previousbat.
The faint gunpowder smell suggested the fighting had ended more than half a day ago. Gripping Godyer, he moved cautiously into the ship''s interior. The air and light were sparse, but this posed no challenge to him. His primary concern was whether the Holtrien soldiers had beenpletely massacred, which would make their mission futile. Suddenly, Andrew caught an almost imperceptible sound, almost like a bat''s squeak. He stopped, slowly looking up at the ceiling of the passageway. ''One, two, three..." Dozens of ck bats with glowing red eyes hung motionless in the darkness.
Had it not been for Andrew''s exceptional hearing, he would never have detected their presence. Andrew exhaled, realizing which faction had attacked the port It was the vampire n! Suddenly, rapid footsteps and excited, bloodthirsty breathing echoed through the ship''s interior. A cold smile crossed Andrew''s lips as he realized he had been discovered. Swarms of ck shadows burst from the passageway, with over ---- 100 vampires charging forward, their crimson eyes zing. Andrew let out a long how! to alert Nyx below, then struck the ceiling with his sword, sting a massive hole.
Weak sunlight filtered in, causing agonized screams from the vampires. The low-ranking vampire servants were particrly vulnerable, as even a small amount of sunlight could cause their skin to blister and tear. A mocking voice interrupted Andrew''s moment of triumph. "You seem experienced in dealing with our kind, kid. But the Ludendorff family isn''t afraid of sunlight. Your time is up!" Turning, Andrew found his escape route blocked by a short but powerful martial god: Cyril from the Ludendorff family.
