Chapter 639: Loyalty

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Seeing the game notification on his retina, Fang Heng was stunned.

She was going to join the shelter?

A normal NPC like her was joining District 8’s shelter as a survivor?

Was there such a setting in the game?

After the initial shock, Fang Heng quickly weighed the pros and cons.

How sincere was Atina’s surrender? Would she betray him then?

If Atina was truly loyal to him, it would definitely be beneficial to his subsequent plans of plundering!

Also, the most important point, Atina had a large amount of information related to the vampires!

He would give it a try first!

Those who aren’t greedy before apparent benefits are bastards!

Fang Heng immediately made a decision.

“Atina, I’m willing to accept your loyalty. It’s time for you to show your sincerity.”

“Bang!” The illusory body before Fang Heng shattered with a bang.

......

On the right side of the cave, Atina emerged from the void.

She slowly walked to Fang Heng and knelt down on one knee, performing the standard etiquette of vampires, “Atina pledges my loyalty to you.”

“Tell me, Atina, what made you choose to pledge your loyalty to me?”

“Angetas is our divine tree. Without the protection of Angetas, the strength of all vampires will continue to weaken until we are exhausted. In the beginning, the Elder Councils can use a secret technique to barely maintain the vampires for some time, but after that, the overall strength of the vampires will be greatly reduced. We…”

Atina could already see the huge disaster that the vampires were about to face.

“We will all die.”

Greatly reduced strength?!

Die?

Fang Heng felt that this was the best news.

As Atina spoke, she extended her right hand and placed it in front of one of her eyes.

“Squelch, squelch…”

The eye squirmed, and in Atina’s hand was a red eye prosthesis.

She maintained a kneeling position and respectfully handed the eyeball, which was one of the vampires’ Thirteen Holy Artifacts, to Fang Heng.

“Master, I hope this can prove my loyalty.”

Atina didn’t want to die.

Compared to her life, what was a mere vampiric holy weapon eyeball?

[Notification: You have received one of the vampires’ Thirteen Holy Artifacts of vampires: Blood Gaze (right eye) (inferior).]

[Item: Vampiric holy weapon, Blood Gaze (right eye) (inferior).]

[Description: Special item, soul binding. occupies a special backpack slot. Cannot be discarded. It will drop after death.]

[Description: One of the vampires’ Thirteen Holy Artifacts. Rumor has it that it possesses great strength. Effective immediately when placed into the backpack: basic agility +1, basic strength +1, basic vitality +1, blood affinity +3.

[Additional Skill: Piety.]

[Skill Description: Obtain an additional bonus when using vampiric curses (the bonus effect is related to the player’s blood affinity).]

[Description: The Thirteen Holy Artifacts are rumored to contain a huge secret about vampires. Additional effects can be obtained by obtaining more combinations of the vampiric holy weapons.]

Fang Heng quickly scanned the attributes of the right eye holy weapon.

It was useless!

To Atina, the holy weapon could increase her overall strength, but it was totally useless for Fang Heng!

Never mind though, he could use it as a prop to support his attributes.

Putting away the vampiric holy weapon, Fang Heng looked at Atina, “Very well, Atina, I accept your loyalty. You won’t regret your choice.”

“Yes, respected master.”

[Notification: you have received the loyalty of the vampire Marquis Atina.]

[Vampire Marquis Atina]

[Grade: S]

[Level: 27 (Atina’s loyalty is below 70, unable to view skills).]

[Current Loyalty: 37 (there is a possibility of defection).]

As expected, Atina’s loyalty was very low.

According to the game’s settings, with her current loyalty, Atina could possibly defect.

Fang Heng remembered that he had seen some tests about NPC loyalty on the internet before.

The NPCs in the King of Gods’ game had intelligence that was infinitely close to that of humans. They were not just the game settings.

In the past, most internet games would operate according to internal logic settings. The program was set as such that the NPCs’ loyalty would be randomly determined every time they went out on a mission. The lower the loyalty, the higher the probability of the NPC defecting.

However, this was not the case in the King of Gods’ game.

The behavior of the NPCs had strong personal emotional tendencies and was based on logical thinking.

Sometimes, even if their loyalty was not high, they would never betray their master after considering multiple factors.

“Get up, Atina,” Fang Heng thought about it as he continued to ask, “Atina, you haven’t answered my previous question. How can I wake up the sleeping Angetas?”

“I’m sorry, Master. I’ve only read some descriptions about the divine tree’s hibernation in the Elders Council’s library. The specific awakening ritual is very complicated and requires a lot of sacrificial materials. I can’t remember them clearly. I need to find that book.”

Fang Heng frowned, “Fine. Atina, there’s no rush to wake up Angetas. We still have a lot of time to take it slow. Now, I need you to do two things immediately.”

Atina bowed again, “Please instruct me.”

“First, return to District 5 and stop attacking the outside world. Ask the vampires to teleport all of District 5’s materials into District 7. Second, the passage to the world of the vampires can still be opened. I need you to open the teleportation passage and return. Think of a way to lure a few batches of vampires from the world of the vampires here. Be careful not to be discovered by them that you have defected,” Fang Heng looked at Atina. “I believe that you can do these with your ability.”

Hearing this, Atina was shocked again.

She reconfirmed with Fang Heng, “Are you saying that you want me to return to the world of the vampires alone?”

Fang Heng nodded and said, “Yes.”

Atina was extremely puzzled.

Was he letting her return to the world of the vampires just like this?

Was Fang Heng not worried that she would defect again?

Or did he not care at all?

“As you wish, respected master,” Atina decided not to think about it anymore, and she immediately flew out of the cave in her bat form.

It was better this way, anyway.

She could use the chance to confirm Angetas’s situation when she returned to the world of the vampires.

Seeing Atina leave, Zhao Dongyang was dumbfounded.

He walked up and asked in a low voice, “Hey, Boss Fang, are you really going to let her go? What if she runs away?”

What else could he do? He would just lose out!

Fang Heng had already calculated everything in his mind.

Atina’s basic loyalty was, after all, too low, and he didn’t have enough time to slowly bring her loyalty back to the safe line.

This time, he was going to test her.

He would let her go back to the world of the vampires to test whether she would come back or not.

If he failed, he would only lose a high-tier soul and three bottles of blood. He could think of a way to kill Atina the next time he met her.

He could also avoid being stabbed in the back by Atina at critical moments in the future.

If he won the bet…

He would profit by a huge margin.

As for whether his trust in Atina could be maintained in the future, that would depend on the future.

Thinking of this, Fang Heng patted Zhao Dongyang’s shoulder, “Hurry up and continue to draw the blood. We still have work to do later.”

“Oh, okay.”

Chen Yu, who was behind Fang Heng, was also baffled. He walked to Fang Heng’s side and asked, “Fang Heng? What’s the situation?”

“Good news. Get someone to tell Commander Qian Yuan of District 5 to stop attacking the vampires for now,” Fang Heng turned his head and said, “Continue to be prepared to fight the vampires. We have to make the vampires pay a price, right?”

“Uh, I think so?” Chen Yu blinked and it was apparent he didn’t understand.
