At this moment in Heglais Town, although the sky had already brightened, the bonfire in the center of the town was still burning fiercely.
The main road of the town was littered with grotesque corpses lying in disarray. The chaos and commotion from the previous night had long since ended. Luo Wei walked up to the bonfire, yawning and surveying the surroundings with tired eyes.
Heglais Town had returned to the eerie silence it had when they first arrived. Every household had their doors tightly shut and curtains drawn.
The townsfolk who had survived were hiding in their homes, peeking through cracks in their doors or behind curtains, staring at Luo Wei and his two companions with indescribable fear.

Luo Wei glanced around, and when he saw the various nervous and frightened gazes, he couldn’t help but laugh.
Last night, the three of them had single-handedly fought off all the townsfolk. The state they had been in at the time made them seem more like terrifying monsters than the townsfolk themselves.
Evelyn’s eyes showed disdain. “After hearing those legends, I thought the town would be much scarier. But this is it?”
The blood-red scythe in her hand slowly vanished into the air, and then she turned to Luo Wei.
Evelyn asked with a smile, “How was my performance last night?”
Luo Wei nodded silently. “Teacher, you were amazing... You even scared me...”
Last night, Evelyn had been like a god of slaughter, her bloodthirsty gaze casting a crimson terror over the entire town...
The power she had displayed far exceeded Luo Wei’s expectations.
And the reason was...
【Evelyn】
【Race: Vampire (Rank: Vampire Viscount↑)】
【Favorability: 82↑】
【Corruption Level: 20↓】
Evelyn had suddenly advanced last night, rising from a Vampire Baron to a Vampire Viscount. This had also elevated her mastery of Vampire Magic to a new level.
“Ever since that time I went with you to the lower district, I’ve felt like I was on the verge of a breakthrough...” Evelyn looked at Luo Wei curiously.
“Xiao Wei, what kind of magical aura do you have? Whether it’s that witch you mentioned or me, why do we advance so quickly...”
She couldn’t help but ponder. Her last advancement had been twenty years ago. Although she was the most talented in her family, based on the cultivation speeds of those old monsters in her family, she had conservatively estimated that it would take her at least another ten years to become a Vampire Viscount...
Yet after meeting Luo Wei, in such a short time, she had touched upon a higher level of Vampire Magic.
Luo Wei shook his head, not explaining why.
The reason was actually quite simple. Their team had been tackling dungeons far above their level. When he had played through the first and second chapters of the game before, at most they had dealt with a serial killer or a ghoul. But this time...
Things like minions of evil gods, and even the evil gods themselves, had appeared. It would have been strange if their leveling speed hadn’t been fast...
After her advancement, Evelyn became both proud and smug. She instinctively glanced at Helena, her gaze challenging.
After the battle at the manor, Evelyn had never forgotten the scene of Helena’s massive tentacle instantly defeating her. She had always been dissatisfied and wanted another chance to settle the score.
Feeling Evelyn’s challenging gaze, Helena curled her lips and ignored her.
In her normal state, she definitely couldn’t defeat this vampire. Her victory last time had been due to corruption and backlash, which had transformed her into that hideous and terrifying creature. But she never wanted to turn into such a monstrous form in front of her brother again...
“You like fighting, huh...” Helena said softly. “If you like fighting so much, go find the witch! If you can beat her, then I’ll admit you’re strong!”
“Uh...” Evelyn paused, then instinctively looked at Luo Wei.
Luo Wei laughed and said directly, “Teacher, don’t even think about it. You can’t beat her.”
“Do you have to be so blunt...” Evelyn gave him a resentful look. “Couldn’t you at least hesitate a little? Give your teacher some face...”
So Luo Wei lowered his head, furrowed his brows, and pretended to think deeply. Then he scrutinized Evelyn for a long time, giving her the courtesy of a thorough analysis.
“Hmm... Well, based on extensive data analysis, Teacher, you probably... really can’t beat her?”
“Oh...”
Evelyn hung her head in disappointment, finally dropping the subject.
But her curiosity only grew. She really wanted to know just how powerful that witch was...
While chatting, the three of them had already checked their surroundings and confirmed there were no more threats.
Luo Wei crouched by the bonfire, poking at it with his cane. He noticed many charred human bones among the ashes.
He looked up and asked the innkeeper, who was tied up and hanging from a pole.
“Did you burn all these outsiders to death? Why do you hate outsiders so much?”
The innkeeper’s bulging eyes, bloodshot and filled with hatred, glared at him.
“Damn witches! Demons! I curse you! You...”
As he began to curse loudly, a black tentacle wrapped around his neck, choking him tightly.
“My brother is asking you a question!” Helena said coldly. “Answer honestly if you want to live!”
After releasing the tentacle, the innkeeper gasped for breath, sweat pouring down his face. But when he looked at Luo Wei again, the venom in his eyes remained undiminished.
“Blasphemous black witches! You demons! You’ve done those things, and you’ll die cursed and go to hell!!”
Hearing this, Evelyn frowned slightly, her gaze thoughtful as she looked at Luo Wei.
Helena didn’t think much of it, assuming he was just cursing her brother. She immediately prepared to throw the innkeeper into the bonfire with her tentacles, letting him experience the same fate as those outsiders.
“Wait a moment...” Luo Wei suddenly sensed something unusual.
“Blasphemy? You’re quite devout... Which god do you worship?”
He walked over, pressed his cane against the innkeeper’s neck, and carefully examined him.
The main reason the townsfolk looked so grotesque was that they no longer resembled humans, having developed many aquatic-like features. The folds on the sides of their necks concealed gill-like organs, similar to those of fish.
The deity they worshipped must have been something from the sea, given how they had transformed.
“Of course, the great Sea God!” the innkeeper snorted.
“Which Sea God do you worship?” Evelyn immediately pressed.
The innkeeper sneered at them. “The Sea God is the Sea God, the great ruler of the ocean! Who else could it be?”
Luo Wei and Evelyn exchanged glances, both showing a hint of confusion.
Both of them had studied a great deal of history and occult literature and knew that coastal peoples around the world had legends of sea gods.
But the image of the “Sea God” was not consistent—they were essentially different entities. And based on Luo Wei’s knowledge, there was no true “Sea God” in this world.
However, no matter how they pressed, neither the innkeeper nor the captured townsfolk could provide any more information. They seemed to truly worship the “Sea God,” the sole ruler of the ocean, with no name or title...
Luo Wei stopped fixating on this, as these ignorant townsfolk probably didn’t even know what they were worshipping. He then asked another question:
“Why do you call us witches?”
“We’re not witches. From what you’re saying, did a group of witches come here and do something terrible?”
