Chapter 281 Curing The Root Of The Problem And Super Legion.
On the sixth day after the magic resurgence, while everyone was still celebrating the upgrades, and the professionals were training hard, the City of Dawn had declared war on East Sea Metropolis.
The news spread like fire throughout the southeastern region. Even the powerful factions in the southern region caught wind of it.
They were curious. The City of Dawn had been rapidly developing, so why was it declaring war on a neutral territory?
They did not speculate whether the City of Dawn would defeat the East Sea Metropolis.
If the war did not pan out for the City of Dawn, especially if the city suffered massive casualties, its future development would be affected.
William wanted to cure the root of his problem. He wanted to ensure that the East Sea Metropolis would be badly defeated.
He wanted to expose Lord Bernard and his subordinates as vampires.
Would that require evidence?
Of course!
But even though other people might not be able to obtain the evidence, the resourceful William had the means to do that.
He had already been collecting pieces of evidence from the East Sea Metropolis, Grand Duchy, and Lan Yu Grand Duchy since half a year ago.
Alec’s intel officers had already infiltrated these places. The number of spies placed in the East Sea Metropolis was more, as it was an enemy of the City of Dawn.
To kill a person, it was important to go for the critical point, the heart.
To raid a city, one had to attack from a moralistic viewpoint!
William wanted to have the moralistic support when he waged the war against Lord Bernard.
Just like the Iron Dukedom that had trumpeted on the freedom cause.
Attacking on a moralistic cause would garner the support of the public!
The intel department of the City of Dawn had deployed many rumormongers in many places. They had spread vicious rumors of the evil sins of the East Sea Metropolis and the horrors of the vampires.
Even though the nobles of the Emerald Grand Duchy and Lan Yu Grand Duchy consisted of vampires, they had to show support for William’s moralistic cause.
The two duchies were unable to voice any resistance. They could not stop their chivalrous professionals from joining the cause of Lord William in the war against the East Sea Metropolis…
William had made use of manipulation methods to garner favorable opinion for his cause. Many countries greatly suffered under his manipulation.
The Moonlight Elves and the Blackleaf Elves also gave their support to the City of Dawn.
Old Band, who was a space enchanter, did not have an Epic title. A space enchanter was already a powerful professional far superior to other enchanters.
When he received the support of Old Band and the Grandmasters Sorimas and Old Leather, William’s confidence was greatly boosted.
He was no longer fearful.
He wanted the City of Dawn to become famous throughout the entire southern region.
The Lord of the East Sea Metropolis was befuddled.
He did not expect the Lord of the City of Dawn to be so vicious with many underhanded methods.
When he walked out of the city in disguise, he could hear discussions about Lord Bernard being a vampire.
It was as though the entire world was filled with spies from the City of Dawn…
Bernard noticed that his subordinates were in disarray. They had the intention to escape from East Sea Metropolis and go into hiding so that they could continue living discreetly.
Bernard was on the verge of collapse.
It was simple. Among the humans, the vampire race was not very popular.
Once he was exposed, he would be badly beaten by the Humans.
The legions and the commoners of the East Sea Metropolis were on the verge of rebellion!
“Stop bickering. If you continue to bicker, get lost.” Bernard slammed on the table, and the vampires in the castle became quiet.
They gazed at him and thought that even though it was the fault of Lord Bernard, they had to take the blame. But since he was the city lord and the most powerful professional, they patiently watched Bernard.
Bernard surveyed the group of vampires and sighed. He said, “I’ll surrender the map of the ‘Blood Essence of the Blood Dragon’ to Emerald Grand Duchy in exchange for the support of the vampire legion.”
“Vampire legion?” Many of the vampires gasped in surprise.
“Is the Emerald Grand Duchy going to deploy the vampire legion?”
“My lord, are you really going to surrender the map?” Some of the vampires were in disbelief. Lord Bernard regarded the map highly, so they did not expect him to relent.
Bernard laughed coldly. “I can always make a duplicate of the map. Locating the treasure requires certain features of the map. I have completed a perfect duplicate. Since I can gain the support of the vampire legion, isn’t it killing two birds with one stone?”
Bernard did not want to give up his territory.
William’s declaration of war had attracted the attention of many vampires. Even if these vampires were the enemies of Bernard, they had to assist the East Sea Metropolis.
Bernard could be even more vicious, but he coldly said, “The East Sea Metropolis will now be under military rule.
“Inform everyone in the legion.
“Decapitation for insubordination!
“Decapitation for defection!
“Remind them of their families and friends in the East Sea Metropolis.
“If they don’t wish to see the corpses of their families and friends, they have to obey my orders!
“Don’t force me to be cruel.”
“My lord… if you do that…”
Bernard waved his hand to interrupt. “Why can’t I? Since we have already been exposed, we don’t need to care about public opinion. Tell the Humans, if we win the war, they’ll obtain wealth and women.
“Tell them that the vampires have survived for thousands of years. We have lots of money. Ask them if they want money.
“We’ll stake out half of our fortune and place them before the Human legions. They will fight for the money.
“Money drives the world.
“Isn’t it the reason why we’re controlling the Humans?”
The vampires calmed down. Lord Bernard was correct. The commoners and soldiers in the city knew that they were vampires.
But as long as the vampires paid them generously, the professionals would not care about their identities.
Even the Human kingdoms had kept a blind eye to the vampires’ existence, so they did not have to be fearful!
The Emerald Grand Duchy understood the symbiotic relationship with the East Sea Metropolis. Hence, the Emerald Grand Duchy was going to reinforce East Sea Metropolis with a large vampire legion. Perhaps, Lan Yu Grand Duchy would also assist East Sea Metropolis.
William had gone too far.
There was no reason they could not defeat the City of Dawn that had only existed for a few years.
Many people thought that it was hilarious.
Even though the City of Dawn had defeated the Darkness invasion, could it be considered a powerful force?
The vampire would let the City of Dawn understand this rule.
When many vampires gathered together, their Blood Magic was like an evil curse!
They would bring massive crippling and bloodshed.
They had not seen such gruesome battles for a long time, and they looked forward to it.
William stood on the balcony of the city lord’s palace while surveying the combat-ready soldiers gathering below the cliff. He smiled and said, “Is Blood Control Magic that powerful?”.
“You think so because you’ve never seen legions with golden equipment and soldiers who had enchanted pieces of equipment fused with precious gems.”
William wanted to loudly laugh.
He had four powerful legions.
Honor!
Moonlight!
Night!
Fearless!
The legions were composed of Intermediate professionals!
They had bloodlines that were above the middle level!
They had pieces of Gold-quality equipment that were enchanted and infused with precious stones!
Moreover, William had 500 Fire and Water Elemental Dragon’s blood warriors.
What was the significance?
The warriors of the City of Dawn were much more powerful than the strongest legions of the Human empires.
Would William be afraid of the Blood Race?
William had paid huge sums of money for the precious gems of Light. Though the money had been pilfered from other countries, his soldiers had become extremely powerful!
