By coincidence, Anbers's last known location before he disappeared had been the Vampire Instance.
The Vampire Instance was the Instance that Xie De and the other Players were working to clear. It had come to the Real World from the domain under 730's jurisdiction and was inextricably linked to Hell. And, as it happened, their contact in Hell-Wei Jianye-had gone silent.
