The city walls had crumbled under the impact of the Disaster creatures, and the citizens of the city continued to fall.

Gerhardt couldn't accept this outcome. He wanted to fight to the death against the Disaster creatures.

He remembered that, in the end, it was Renee who knocked him unconscious from behind.

When he woke up again, he found himself in the camp.

The empire's main city was lost.

After returning, Gerhardt hadn't been able to rest, and everything continued to haunt his mind. Every time he closed his eyes, those painful images would resurface.

Gerhardt took a deep breath, stood up, and looked at Renee, "Renee, can you help me with something?"

"What?"

"Our family crest."

Gerhardt took a deep breath, "When I came back, I realized that our family crest was lost. I believe it must have been lost when we were fleeing the city."

"Father used to say that this crest represents our family, represents the Vanni Empire..."

"I think, somehow, Father has already decided that I am no longer suitable to be the leader of the empire."

"Renee, I hope you can help me find it again. Consider it my request."

Renee glanced at Gerhardt and nodded, "I understand. I'll have people search along the way. Once it's found, I don't want to see you like this anymore. Pull yourself together! We haven't completely failed! The empire still needs you!"

"Thank you!" Gerhardt said, then looked at Fang Heng, who was standing beside Renee. "Renee has never brought anyone to see me; you're the first."

Fang Heng, still confused by the continuous conversation in the Dark Clan language, didn't understand what Gerhardt was saying. He could only smile politely and nod.

[Hint: The player has triggered a mission-Gerhardt's Heartache.]

Mission name: Gerhardt's Heartache.

Mission difficulty: SSS.

Mission description: Gerhardt's family crest was lost during the battle with the Disaster creatures. Help him find it again, as it may reignite his fighting spirit.

Mission requirements: The player must find the Vanni Empire's family crest. Since Gerhardt fears that this matter might damage the empire's reputation, this mission can only be completed by the player and Renee. No a.s.sistance from other Dark Clan members (including summoned creatures) is allowed.

Mission reward: A large increase in friends.h.i.+p with Gerhardt and Renee, as well as with the Vanni Empire.

So, this was purely a friends.h.i.+p-based mission...

Fang Heng looked at the mission description.

He estimated that after completing the mission and earning basic recognition, he would be able to propose his suggestion to Gerhardt about transferring the death realm army.

To be honest, when Fang Heng first saw Gerhardt, with his two dark circles and listless expression, he briefly wondered if he might be a demonic seed of l.u.s.t.

Looking at the mission description, Fang Heng felt the difficulty was not that high.

It was just about finding something.

The difficulty was probably rated as SSS mainly because the crest they needed to find was small and hard to locate, and it was in a region occupied by Disaster creatures.

Overall, the difficulty level wasn't too high.

When it came to finding people and things, Fang Heng considered himself quite skilled.

He waited for Renee and Gerhardt to finish their conversation, then pulled Renee aside as they prepared to leave. He said, "Renee, we're heading out to find the crest, right?"

"Yes. The crest is very important to the entire empire," Renee explained to Fang Heng. "The internal stability of the Vanni Empire is already fragile. If this matter becomes known to outsiders, the empire could fall apart at any moment. We need to find it immediately, and we must do it quietly. Fang Heng, we can only rely on our own strength to search, the sooner, the better."

Renee's tone remained calm, as if she had already accepted that Fang Heng would help her.

"Of course," Fang Heng said. "In fact, I have a way that can help us find the lost crest faster."

With that, Fang Heng flicked his wrist and pulled out a stack of astrology cards.

It's always good to have more skills—this was the moment for astrology to s.h.i.+ne!

Renee and Gerhardt both stared at Fang Heng, completely confused, as he pulled them over to a table.

Fang Heng shuffled the astrology cards and gestured for Gerhardt to cut the deck and draw a card.

Astrology!

Gerhardt, who had been curious about the human standing in front of him, now felt even more puzzled.

What was this?

Looking at the strange symbols and pictures on the cards, Gerhardt was bewildered but obediently followed Fang Heng's instructions to draw a card.

[Hint: The player has performed a divination regarding the current mission target-"Vanni Empire's family inheritance crest" and has confirmed the general region where the item is located.]

[Hint: The player has confirmed the approximate domain range of the mission target, reducing the difficulty of the mission to S.]

Done!

Fang Heng glanced at the mission description again, then took out the map of the death realm from his backpack. He spread it out on the table and drew a circle over a certain area with his hand.

"The crest we're looking for is within this range."

Gerhardt looked at Fang Heng with some surprise.

Although he couldn't understand Fang Heng's words, he clearly understood the gesture indicating the area.

He could determine a rough range just by drawing a few paper cards?

This human had such strange abilities?

Gerhardt felt suspicious and glanced at Renee.

Renee, however, showed no hesitation. After confirming the location, she began collecting the necessary maps and blueprints. Then, she stood up, ready to depart.

"Uh... good luck to you both," Gerhardt said with a nod, watching as the two of them left.

...

Leaving the camp, Fang Heng and Renee quickly set off to find the lost family crest.

The mission difficulty was relatively low, and the location wasn't far, so Fang Heng estimated it would only take about an hour to complete. He decided to take care of it quickly.

Fang Heng controlled the Bone Dragon and flew toward the mission coordinates.

Soon, the Bone Dragon arrived in the designated area.

Fang Heng guided the Bone Dragon to slowly descend.

This area was already occupied by the Nest of Disaster.

Immediately, several Disaster creatures began to chase after the Bone Dragon.

Fang Heng glanced down and spoke in a low voice, "Renee, I'm sure the lost family crest is somewhere below. Wait for me to ignite them, and we'll use this opportunity to find the crest."

With that, Fang Heng maneuvered the Bone Dragon to circle in the air and quickly sprayed fuel onto the ground below.

Whoos.h.!.+

The Book of Elements appeared before Fang Heng, its pages glowing with power.

Fire Element*Scorch the Earth!

Mental strength surged and transformed into a blazing fire that spiraled downward, engulfing the area in flames.

The impact of the skill turned the fuel-soaked area into an inferno in an instant. The flames rapidly spread, consuming the entire surface.

The Nest of Disaster exploded one by one under the intense heat, releasing a pungent smell of charred remains.

"Whoos.h.!.+"

Fang Heng swiftly closed the Book of Elements and began to form a mark with his hands.

After upgrading to G.o.d-level necromancy and completing a special fusion with the Vampire King's bloodline power, both skills changed. His sea of consciousness condensed a new blood-colored mark.

This new mark replaced the previous Persephone's ice crystal mark.
