Chapter 170 of "I Became The Vampire Progenitor" begins with suspense: "My Lord Li De, we currently have a stockpile of 4,000 magic scrolls and a... Don’t stop reading!

"My Lord Li De, we currently have a stockpile of 4,000 magic scrolls and a total of 50,000 Gold Pucks." Upon hearing these figures, Li De was slightly taken aback. He wasn’t surprised by the inventory of magic scrolls, but only 50,000 Gold Pucks? "Why is it so little?" Well, "little" was relative. Fifty thousand Gold Pucks was more than the accumulated wealth of the vampire race over two centuries. But compared to the Crimson Mage Tower's immense profit-generating ability, it indeed seemed meager—pitifully so. Vina spoke softly, "We spent 80,000 Gold Pucks on expanding the mage tower." Coughing, Li De nearly choked. What? Eighty thousand Gold Pucks? He had spent only sixty or seventy thousand building Dawn City over such a long period. "My Lord, the entire layout of the Crimson Mage Tower was decided by Master Spark. This money was used by him to purchase magical materials. Master Spark said he’s preparing to construct a powerful magic array within the Crimson Mage Tower. Once activated, even facing a Level 15 Grand Mage wouldn’t be a problem." Spark? Hearing this, Li De’s lips twitched slightly. This unkempt drunkard of a teacher could be reliable when he wanted to be, but when he wasn’t, no one was more unreliable. Spending so much money on a magic array—was he preparing for a dragon attack? "Is the magic array complete? How do we activate it?" Li De wasn’t familiar with magic arrays, and as the Vampire Progenitor, he lacked knowledge in this area. Magic arrays were an incredibly complex system, requiring decades of study to master their essence. Coincidentally, Spark was the most deeply knowledgeable mage in Green City regarding magic arrays. In the Mage Guild of Green City, hiring a White Tower mage to set up a magic array would cost an exorbitant amount. Regardless, this price tag was excessively high. Vina shook her head with an odd expression. "Master Spark said that only about one-tenth of the array has been completed." Li De nearly spat out the water he had just sipped. After spending a full 80,000 Gold Pucks, only one-tenth was done?! Even constructing a Transcendent-level mage tower wouldn’t cost 800,000 Gold Pucks! What exactly was this old man planning? "Forget it, I’ll ask him myself later." Li De waved his hand in frustration. It was difficult to criticize since the gold-generating powerhouse of magic scrolls was given to him by Spark, and the money had been spent on his mage tower. The situation was truly frustrating. However, he didn’t blame Vina. Spark was his teacher, and in Glory, teachers held the same status as fathers. Moreover, during Li De’s absence, Spark had been protecting the Crimson Mage Tower. Unless Li De personally gave orders, Vina dared not oppose any decisions made by Spark. "The remaining expenditures went toward daily operations of the Crimson Mage Tower, purchasing land, and constructing buildings." Due to the multitude of miscellaneous expenses, Vina didn’t provide a complete breakdown. Li De nodded, gaining a general understanding of the current state of the Crimson Mage Tower. Its profitability had increased exponentially, and its growth potential was immense, especially with the existence of the magic factory. A single factory could deplete all the magical materials in an entire city used to manufacture magic scrolls—imagine how strong its production capacity was. "Continue refining your development plans. Don’t worry about anything else." After pausing briefly, his tone turned serious. "For the time being, except for necessary material purchases, no one is allowed to leave." That chilling gaze continued to unsettle him. The more hidden and shadowy the evil presence, the more uneasy he felt. He didn’t know when it might appear or who its target was. "Yes, My Lord." "You may all leave. Vina, stay behind." --- In the second floor of the Dawn Church in Dawn City, in the far-left room, Emi watched as the bat fluttered its wings and flew out through the half-open glass window, disappearing from sight. At this moment, the face of this Shadow High Priest, arguably the highest combat power among the blasphemers in Dawn City, bore a strange expression. He held two secret letters in his hands. One was from Li De, detailing the situation of the hidden enemy and summoning him to Green City. The other was a secret letter delivered to him via spatial magic by a mysterious entity. The Dark Pact. Frowning at the lifelike flame imprint scorched onto the black cover, Emi felt a tension rise within him. Emi had joined the mysterious organization known as the Dark Pact a very long time ago. It was due to the intervention of a powerful being within the Dark Pact that he became a Shadow Priest. Later, with the help of the Dark Pact, his position within the Temple of the Knight God rose steadily until he became a priest second only to the Bishop. During his time in the Temple of the Knight God, Emi also brought considerable benefits to the Dark Pact. His ties with the Dark Pact grew increasingly close. After reaching Level 14, Emi ascended to become the vice president of the Dark Pact. There were twelve vice presidents in the Dark Pact, each an extremely powerful entity. Emi even suspected that even after breaking through to Level 15, he still wouldn’t match those mysterious beings. The key issue wasn’t that; it was that Viscount Berna, the president of the Dark Pact, directly revealed the organization’s plan in the secret letter sent to him. The Crimson Mage Tower. The Dark Pact believed that the Crimson Mage Tower likely possessed the legendary artifact—the Twelve Magic Scrolls. They planned to use all their forces to seize the artifact. Naturally, they couldn’t withhold this information from Emi, a vice president of the Dark Pact. Comparing the two letters, Emi immediately understood why Li De had sensed someone spying on the Crimson Mage Tower. A peculiar expression crossed his face. Was this essentially handing over all their secrets to the enemy? It was true that he was a vice president of the Dark Pact, but now, he was also a noble Saintlight Vampire, a bloodline descendant of Lord Kachar. It must be said that even if Viscount Berna and the members of the Dark Pact racked their brains, they would never imagine that Emi, who had been a member of the Dark Pact for over twenty years and was one of its key members, would coincidentally become a vampire. Even more absurdly, the target they intended to plunder—the Crimson Mage Tower, established by a human mage—was actually the lair of the Vampire Progenitor. And these two individuals, who had no connection whatsoever and should never overlap, had such an unbreakable relationship. Such a bizarre event would be unbelievable even if told to the malevolent creatures of the Dark Pact. Emi didn’t know whether to laugh or cry at this point. Though he had learned of the formidable enemy that Lord Progenitor would face, he couldn’t feel any joy. Because the Dark Pact was too powerful. Even he wasn’t sure he fully understood the depths of the Dark Pact. Abyssal demons, necromancers, cults of evil gods, underground organizations—all these extremely wicked lives formed the Dark Pact. Within Green City, the influence of the Dark Pact was almost unstoppable. Among the Level 15 existences Emi knew of, there were no fewer than five within the Dark Pact. And the hidden forces lurking in the shadows were even more terrifying. Especially the suave President Viscount Berna. In Emi’s memory, the president of the Dark Pact had never lifted a finger once. Yet, over the past twenty-plus years, no one had dared to question his authority even slightly. An enemy whose strength was unfathomable. Not to mention the other cruel and bloodthirsty creatures like the eight-armed snake demon and necromancers. Emi took a deep breath and looked out the window. The cold moonlight shimmered like liquid silver, clear and translucent. "My Lord Progenitor, the enemies we are about to face will surpass your imagination."
