    Chapter 1760


    Upon hearing that, Gerald and the others were pleasantly surprised. After going through so much


    effort, they had finally managed to enter the vampires’ territory!


    “…However, the fact that those corpses were found dead like that… It can only mean that some


    vampires are still alive! They’re incredibly dangerous opponents, so please be careful, everyone!”


    added Old Flint.


    Vampires in general were an independent race that almost never had contact with people from the


    outside world. It definitely exined why they resented those from the outside world so much. It was


    also the reason why they usually attacked any non-vampires on sight.


    It certainly didn’t help that vampires were naturally fast and could easily kill any number of people they


    wanted.


    “Not to worry, sir! All of us are experts at fighting, so we aren’t to be trifled with either! With that in mind,


    I believe that the vampires won’t dare to act all unrestrained on us!” replied Lech in a confident tone.


    Upon hearing that, Old Flint gave no reply…


    Regardless, after about ten minutes of walking, everyone finally made it out of the passageway that


    spanned at least a few hundred feet. Though they could’ve made it across much faster had they


    wanted to, they had taken their time while walking across since all manner of sharp gravel were


    scattered throughout the area. With that in mind, they were all honestly d that they had thick-soled


    shoes on…


    Either way, at the end of the passagewayy a gigantic hall… In the middle of the hall, was a wheel of


    sorts that only served to add to the area’s strangeness and mysteriousness…


    After looking around, the astonished Ray couldn’t help but say, “Color me surprised! To think that such


    arge pce-like ce would exist up here in the mountains!”


    True enough, this ce was muchrger than the tomb they had seen in Ghost Country. With that in


    mind, it appeared that the vampires were extremely powerful…


    Whatever the case was, the others then began curiously inspecting their surroundings… Gerald himself


    —as well as a few others—immediately went for the wheel in the middle of the room…


    Looking at the wheel, Ray then asked, “Any idea what this wheel symbolizes, Mr. Crawford?”


    Before Gerald could even reply, Old Flint exined, “That’s the vampires’ Wheel of the Sun and Moon!


    They use it to calcte time!”


    “Calcte… time? Why would they require such a big wheel just to calcte time?” asked Ray.


    “Oh, they didn’t use it to calcte regr time. Instead, the wheel calctes when they need to


    replenish their blood!” replied Old Flint, instantly causing a chill to run down Ray’s spine.


    As it turned out, the vampires used this wheel to calcte when exactly they needed to suck fresh


    blood, and the thought of it alone was honestly spine tingling…


    At that moment, one of Lech’s team members could be seen stretching out his hand to grab what


    seemed to be a pearl—that was embedded on one of the stone walls—as he shouted, “Hey captain,


    there’s a pearl here! I’m sure it’ll sell for a lot!”


    Upon realizing what was happening, Gerald instantly yelled, “Don’t pluck it off the wall!”


    Unfortunately, Gerald was toote.


    The team member had already taken it off the wall, and he was now looking at Gerald in bewilderment,


    wondering why he was getting so worked up about the pearl in his hand.


    Before anyone could react any further, a thunderous sound could suddenly be heard!


    Turning to face the source of the sound, everyone’s eyes widened in horror when they realized that a


    massive stone had fallen andpletely blocked the pce’s entrance!

    “Everyone, duck!” shouted Gerald as he instantly pushed Old Flint and the rest of his party members to


    the ground.


    The second his sentence ended, countless arrows began shooting out from the surrounding stone


    walls!


    Sadly, some of Lech’s team members weren’t quick enough to react, which led to them getting pierced


    by volleys of arrows! Soon enough, those members flopped to the ground, dead and lying in their own


    pools of blood…


    For those who managed to duck in time, none of them dared to even raise their heads, afraid that


    arrows would pierce right through their skulls…


    Nobody could’ve anticipated there to be such a death machine in this ce…
