Chapter 2994: Chapter 997: Even the Longest Night Will Welcome the Dawn (Part 2)

In the command cabin, watching through optical projection as Lord Pa Ying had driven the Wolf People out of the city, His Highness Prince Hu Fu, who had been tense all along, finally let out a sigh of relief. He returned to his seat and removed his heavy battle helmet, placing it beside him, then turned to General Bopal, who had just returned to the spaceship still carrying a strong scent of blood:

"Tonight was truly long. The city was almost lost, like a small boat in a hurricane, saved from the brink of destruction countless times—that’s truly a miracle."

"Indeed."

Battle-hardened General Bopal also felt a bit moved and said:

"The Half-body Men showed rare decisiveness tonight, signaling that their era of isolation and conservatism is about to end. From now on, the Half-body Men will take on a more active role on the continental stage.

As for their technological prowess, the technological explosion of the continent is likely imminent."

"That doesn’t affect us, General."

Hu Fu shook his head and said:

"The technology of the Sanghai Empire and Half-body Men are not the same system. The knowledge bestowed by the creator is more advanced and powerful than what they wield. However, I think if Half-body Men can share their technology with others, could we also..."

"That’s not a topic I can casually discuss, Your Highness."

General Bopal shook his head and said:

"Such important national policies can only be decided by His Majesty and key ministers. You can only propose it, besides, I suggest you not to rush.

The outflow and disclosure of the creator’s divine knowledge may not be purely beneficial for the continent’s nations... but it’s not the time to consider these things now. You participated in this war in its entirety, and you are entitled to step into this city, which has suffered greatly, as a victor.

We will land at Charldo Harbor in an hour, Your Highness, you should return to your cabin to change into your formal attire.

Our observers noted that the Armastasha Fleet of the Castia Kingdom has already landed in the city, and that fleet is usually commanded by the Sea Elf Royalty, so you’ll face a high-ranking Elf Kingdom representative this time."

"Ugh, to be honest, I really don’t like such political exchanges."

Hu Fu whispered:

"Especially with the elves, after the Heavenly Bridge war, the relationship between the two sides has dropped to freezing point, they see us as enemies, and our country’s attitude towards elves is very unfriendly as well.

Although I have met Ranger General Prince Filoseer, I don’t think this personal relationship can change the diplomatic situation between the two countries.

Mamuruk... damn it!

If not for his manic actions, we might have already become friends with the elves."

"Elves are no one’s friends, Your Highness, don’t have such naive thoughts, those pointy ears are never friendly, you should show some assertiveness as a representative of the Empire."

The old General snorted and said:

"In my personal view, even without Mamuruk initiating the ’Dead Moon War’ back then, even if the Heavenly Bridge was really constructed, peace still wouldn’t be possible.

This is unrelated to faith or diplomacy, it’s purely due to the arrogance of the elves...

I really don’t know where their rude arrogance towards the Sanghai People comes from?"

When Murphy entered the battlefield armoured with War Marshal gear and activated the midnight echo aura amidst a crowd of vampires, the already underway counterattack progressed in an even more ruthless manner. Especially after Lord Pa Ying, Triss, and Old Edward were all drawn into ’Wrath of Darkness’, the opposing Great Marshal of the Jackal Wolves was downright unlucky.

Even though that guy possessed a fairly potent ’second-stage transformation’ under the ’blessing’ of the Chaos Shadow, facing the furious assault of the three Dukes and a sneaky creature hiding at the back in ’Super Squirtle’ form providing strong firepower support, the Bonebite Great Marshal still couldn’t last five minutes before perishing under the Holy Spear’s judgment.

Its death proclaimed the complete failure of the Bonebite Clan’s assault on Charldo Harbor. Of course, the deranged Filthy Jackal People wouldn’t stop fighting because of such ’setbacks’.

Though lacking the divine power blessing of the Master of Hunting, the rioters drawing strength from chaos still displayed a stance of stubborn resistance.

At dawn, while the rioters were being driven and suppressed into one place by the defenders, still crazily trying to break out, Murphy no longer wanted to waste time on these remnants.

He contacted Mosna, instructing the latter to activate the spare energy of the solar ship and allocate it to the solar engine. Then, at the moment the first ray of sunlight broke out over the sea, a fierce diffuse solar bombardment accurately hit the last remnants of the Jackal People.

The bombardment continued for a full twenty seconds, and when the scorching sunlight dissipated, all that remained in the Jackal People’s area was a large pit emitting high-temperature smoke.

The land had been scorched to a glassy state, and those utterly filthy creatures were sent to meet their new master in such baking and annihilation.

This was the ’cleanest’ manner of dealing with the Subspace Servants.

Slaying them on the battlefield would cause the heinous ’Sin Stone’ to drop, but the rabble scorched by the solar bombarding would only leave behind a sky filled with flying ashes.

"We won."

Murphy dismissed the Super Squirtle... ah phew, Medusa Fire Support component, allowing the heavy armored backpack to crash to the ground with a thud. He opened his faceplate in the sunlight and looked at Lord Pa Ying beside him, saying:
