The cave of the Madblood Clan fell silent.
The two groups who had been fighting to the death just moments earlier now stood clearly separated on opposite sides of the cave, with the blood cocoon formed when Murphy "reincarnated on the spot" serving as the dividing line.
The players had gone on full alert.
These foreign vampires had brought out every lethal weapon at their disposal and were guarding the blood cocoon with their lives. They not only kept the Madbloods away, but even glared fiercely at vampires from their own side whenever they tried to approach.
The player interface had issued its highest-level alert. The WIFI Goddess's invisible hand had begun to exert its influence. For the sake of her favorite bedmate, she had practically given the players a death sentence: they had to protect Murphy until his "promotion" was complete.
The consequences of failing this promotion would be terrifying. A group of veteran players had even seen a dreadful warning that hadn't appeared since the early days of the game.
If Murphy died, the entire "True Otherworld" would immediately shut down.
Holy crap, this wasn't a joke. They had no choice but to risk everything to protect Lord Murphy now.
Only the vampire grand dukes and Murphy's closest lovers were allowed near the blood cocoon. But even the most well-traveled Lord Paine had never seen a vampire turn himself into a "ball" before. He had never heard of anything like this, not even back on the homeworld.
In the end, the Secretblood Clan proved useful. After all, they had inherited directly from Lady Constance's Blood Spirit Court, so it was only natural they had a collection of esoteric knowledge.
