Chapter 165: Holy Vampire

The defenders of Tiprano City rushed towards the platform where Tian Feng was like a gust of wind and launched a sudden attack.

Gao Lan and Qu Yi were extremely anxious when they saw that Tian Feng had no reaction to this sudden change. They quickly led their soldiers to fight the enemy, vowing to defend Tian Feng and the crucial platform to the death.

Just as the two armies were fighting fiercely, another portal was quietly activated.

The first thing to come out was a group of vampires!

What is even more shocking is that these vampires, who should have been regarded as symbols of darkness and evil, are now covered in holy and dazzling light.

After witnessing this scene, both the enemy and our side were dumbfounded and even forgot the fierce battle that was going on before their eyes.

The scene that followed was unforgettable for everyone - countless zombies continuously poured out of the portal, and they also radiated a sacred light.

Faced with such a bizarre scene, people couldn't help but fall into deep thought: If even these creatures that should belong to the category of monsters can be covered with holy light, then does the so-called boundary between gods and monsters still exist?

For a moment, the inner world of those devout believers among the defenders of Tiprano City completely collapsed. They could not accept what they saw before their eyes, and even forgot that they were in a dangerous situation on the battlefield. They knelt down and prayed to the goddess they believed in for protection.

In sharp contrast, Gao Lan's army reacted relatively calmly.

After all, this team has undergone military reforms, and Zhang Wei is not stupid enough to preach materialism and atheism in a world where miracles exist. The concept he advocates is that "all beings are equal and can believe in the same God", which is like a vaccine, allowing the army to have some "antibodies" in advance.

The vampires acted decisively and quickly commanded the zombies to launch a counterattack, launching a fierce attack on the defenders of the city of Tiprano.

They did not kill indiscriminately, especially not harming the city defenders who were praying devoutly.

This restrained behavior gradually put some of Gao Lan's army members who were originally worried to ease their minds.

After successfully repelling the raid by the city defenders, the vampires immediately began to methodically organize the ghouls to take over the construction of the watchtower.

This not only reduces the heavy workload of human officers and soldiers, but also enables better monitoring of the war situation.

As time passed, the sun gradually set and night fell.

At this time, the vampires led the group of zombies through the portal and left.

According to the vampire, this move was intended to desensitize Gao Lan's army and reinforcements.

"Desensitization?" Tian Feng was puzzled.

"This is the term used by the Lord." The vampire patiently explained, and elaborated on the meaning of "desensitization". After Tian Feng and others finished listening, they suddenly understood.

After five days of "desensitization" process, Gao Lan's army, human reinforcements and vampire army have become one.

Nowadays, some officers and soldiers will even spontaneously assist the ghouls in completing tasks such as building lookout towers in their spare time. This is especially true for officers and soldiers with devout beliefs. Since they are all blessed and protected by the goddesses, they are all the goddesses' people.

On the day when the lookout tower was completed, the sun shone on this magnificent building, as if it was covered with a layer of golden light. A deafening cheer came from Gao Lan's army, the sound waves went straight to the sky, stirring the entire battlefield.

This lookout tower had once been a pain for human officers and soldiers, as it was even higher than the solid walls of the city of Tiprano. However, with the help of the ghouls, after going through untold hardships, it was finally completed! The soldiers hugged each other excitedly, with victory shining in their eyes.

Gao Lan, Tian Feng, Qu Yi and other generals stepped onto the observation tower with high spirits, overlooking the movements in the city of Tiprano and the deployment of the enemy's forces. They were confident and began to carefully plan a new round of siege strategy.

The defenders of Tiprano were terrified. Faced with this indestructible earth and stone lookout, they were helpless.

In desperation, he had to send envoys south to ask Duke Lionheart for help.

At this moment, the Blood Moon Cult army that had been looting villages around the city of Antiphis unexpectedly built a fortress in the south of the city, apparently intending to stay there permanently and plunder.

The Lionheart Duke was immediately caught in a dilemma: if he sent troops north to reinforce the city of Tiprano, then the city of Antiphis he was guarding would be in danger;

If the army was mobilized again from Lionheart Fort, there was a fear that the Imperial Army, which was eyeing the fort covetously, would take the opportunity to launch an attack and capture Lionheart Fort in one fell swoop.

"Father, I think it's time to give up Lionheart Castle." Henry said solemnly.

At this moment, the Lionhearted Knight's heart was full of contradictions and struggles.

On the one hand, he knew the importance of Lionheart Castle to the entire kingdom;

On the other hand, under the advice of the third princess, Amina Hudson, he also understood that only by doing so could the family survive.

Henry and the third princess had already been husband and wife, but this was not out of pure love, but more of an exchange of interests.

The third princess longed to lead the army back to the capital, ascend the throne, and become the ruler of this country.

To this end, she gave herself to Henry before they got married. With Henry's deep love for her, she gained the support of the army led by the Duke of Lionheart.

Faced with his son Henry's plea, the Duke of Lionheart fell into a long silence.

He knew very well that if he really gave up Lionheart Castle, it would bring great disaster to the entire kingdom.

However, the reality is so cruel - the family is now facing the crisis of defeat, and any carelessness may lead to the execution of the entire family and the extermination of nine generations of the clan.

Faced with this difficult choice, the Duke of Lionheart finally decided to abandon his country to save his family.

After all, at the critical moment of life and death, the Duke of Lionheart believed that the fate of individuals and families was obviously more urgent and important.

Now that he had decided to abandon Lionheart Castle, the Duke of Lionheart took action without hesitation.

He quickly dispatched an envoy, and with the help of advanced teleportation technology, he instantly reached Lionheart Castle from the distant city of Antiphis.

These messengers have an important mission. They will continue to move forward to Newt City to convey orders, demanding that the troops besieging Newt City withdraw immediately.

As for Zhang Wei, he never took the initiative to attack and defeat the Lionheart Castle army attacking Newt City in one fell swoop.

The reason behind this is simple, and it all comes down to prudent consideration of the situation.

He knew very well that if he dealt a heavy blow to this army easily, it would not only seriously damage its vitality, but would also likely leave an opportunity for the empire that was eyeing it covetously to take advantage of it.

Once the Empire realizes that Lionheart Castle's strength has been damaged, it will likely take the opportunity to march south in an attempt to seize this strategic location.

Because of this, Zhang Wei has always maintained a high degree of restraint and vigilance.

He strictly limited the scale of the battle to avoid over-consumption of his own strength while also not giving the enemy any opportunity to take advantage.

Although this strategy seems conservative, it contains profound meaning.

Only by stabilizing the situation and maintaining the bottom line can we better deal with possible crises and challenges in the future.

At this moment, Zhang Wei and Duke Lionheart took different paths in their choice of country.
