Chapter 2855  Identity

“Today’s black fog that appeared here is likely to have come from the Federation.”

“Why?” Fang Heng frowned and said, “Did the Western District Federation intentionally spread the black fog recently? Why would they do that?”

“It’s probably to gain leverage. A large portion of the people don’t want the so-called Star Map Project to be established. The spreading of the black fog makes the people feel threatened, causing them to more readily believe in the necessity of the Federation establishing the Star Map,” Wolff sighed. “We, the Holy Court, have spent a lot of resources in this world, but in the end, humanity still doesn’t trust us and has chosen to cooperate with the spawns.”

From the Holy Court’s perspective, Wolff didn’t want the Star Map Project to succeed.

“Great Sage, the Holy Realm has already given orders. We will not take any action until the God King has recovered. For now, we only want to maintain the status quo and find a way to protect the believers of the Holy Court.”

Fang Heng observed Wolff. At first glance, Wolff seemed to have no ulterior motives. However, it was unclear if there were any hidden interests within.

“Wolff, I have an important task for you.”

Wolff respectfully nodded, “I am at your service, Great Sage.”

“After the black fog incident is resolved, I need you to disappear for a while. We will claim that you went missing during the battle with the black fog. Can you do that?”

Wolff frowned slightly. The participants also cast puzzled looks at Fang Heng.

At this moment, the black fog incident was ongoing, and the people were already greatly fearful of it. If the Archbishop were to go missing during the battle with the black fog, wouldn’t the believers of the Holy Court be even more anxious, thinking the Holy Court couldn’t provide protection? Wouldn’t they be more inclined to trust the spawns and the Western District Federation?

On what side was this suddenly appearing Great Sage?

Although Wolff had doubts, he still agreed respectfully, “I understand. I will disappear after the black fog incident ends.”

“Good.”

Fang Heng agreed in satisfaction. He had solved the problem so smoothly, much easier than he had anticipated. Moreover, by using the identity of Fang Bai, he could leverage the Holy Court’s strength in the real world to do more things.

Fang Heng then turned to Cullen and the other players and said, “As for you…”

Cullen met Fang Heng’s gaze and immediately felt a chill in his heart. He nodded and said, “Please rest assured, Great Sage. We will not leak any information about you.”

“Mm, prepare in advance for any inquiries from the Federation. Do not reveal any flaws,” Fang Heng said, looking at the large door to the sixth-floor entrance. “Now, let’s deal with the black fog.”

Cullen and his group of players immediately stepped aside, clearing a path.

The Great Sage of the Holy Court from the Holy Realm had arrived.

Although Archbishop Wolff was extremely respectful towards him, the players still murmured to themselves.

Was it real?

Besides, if he’s a Great Sage, he should be very powerful, right?

At least, from their appearance, they couldn’t perceive any fluctuation of strength from Fang Heng.

Wolff respectfully followed behind Fang Heng, quietly reminding him, “Great Sage, we’ve confirmed that the Pillar of Black Fog is located in the center of the Great Hall on the sixth floor. There are many magical creatures gathered inside the Great Hall, and there is also a commander-level creature, the Binding Sarcophagus, guarding it. It won’t be easy to handle.”

“Mm, I know. There’s no rush. Let’s assess the situation first.”

Fang Heng decided to be cautious.

After all, he hadn’t unlocked his full strength, and he wasn’t sure he could deal with high-tier commander-level creatures.

The door ahead slowly opened, and flashing red and blue light spots appeared in the Great Hall.

These were Arcane Red Ravens and the Doomsday Grimoire.

Fang Heng’s gaze focused on the flickering light spots in the air.

The special creatures of the Arcane World.

To be precise, the Doomsday Grimoire was originally a magical item, imbued with vitality by mages.

The Arcane Red Raven was a crow creature that had been transformed by magic. It had long since lost its soul and will, completely becoming a puppet of the mages.

Inside the Great Hall, there were at least thousands of arcane creatures, scattered throughout the entire hall, most of which were still in a hibernation state.

“Great Sage, the arcane creatures’ attack frequency was fast, and they could lock onto targets. Once we stepped into their range, we would be hit by their concentrated fire attacks.”

Cullen saw Fang Heng standing at the entrance, observing, and couldn’t help but whisper a reminder.

“Alright.”

Fang Heng replied and looked up.

With the blessing of the vampire’s eye, Fang Heng saw the situation in the Great Hall clearly.

The Pillar of Black Fog was actually located near the depths of the hall.

A black stone coffin stood upright in front of the pillar.

It should be the Binding Sarcophagus that Archbishop Wolff had mentioned.

Fang Heng thought to himself and took a step forward, walking towards the Pillar of Black Fog.

As the invader entered the attack range, red and blue lights in the six-story Great Hall lit up one by one.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!!

Countless beams of light shot toward Fang Heng.

Cullen and the group of players closely watched Fang Heng’s every move, curious about how he would respond.

Whoosh!

What!

Cullen’s pupils suddenly shrank as he saw Fang Heng’s figure suddenly explode, turning into a shadow in his line of sight!

It was too fast!

Cullen couldn’t fully capture Fang Heng’s movement trajectory, only seeing a shadow rapidly moving forward.

Fang Heng’s explosive speed directly avoided most of the arcane creatures’ attacks, rushing straight toward the central black fog stone pillar in the Great Hall!

“Bang! Bang! Bang!!!”

A large number of arcane light beams gathered and locked onto Fang Heng, exploding on the ground behind him.

The arcane creatures realized that their locked attacks couldn’t lock onto Fang Heng, so they immediately changed tactics and launched indiscriminate coverage attacks!

“Whoosh!! Whoosh!!”

Under the massive barrage of arcane spells, it was impossible to dodge fully just by speed!

Cullen stared at the shadow.

He couldn’t avoid it!

Should he use the holy shield to forcefully withstand it?

Where was the holy shield?

There was no holy shield!

“Whoosh!”

More than ten arcane attacks directly hit Fang Heng, exploding on him!

Archbishop Wolff’s heart tightened at the sight, instinctively tightening the scepter in his hand.

“Huh?”

Cullen let out a surprised sound.

It was ineffective!

The spells exploded on Fang Heng, but it seemed like they didn’t pose any threat to him, and even his speed hadn’t slowed down at all!

Everyone tightly watched Fang Heng as he rapidly passed through the massive groups of arcane creatures, directly heading toward the central Binding Sarcophagus in the Great Hall!

Terrifying physical defense!

Cullen’s heart trembled.

They had just experienced several waves of arcane creatures’ spell bombardments on the sixth floor.

The holy barrier that ordinary players could release was reduced by a third of its energy with each arcane light beam hit.

Yet Fang Heng had withstood it all with his body?
