Chapter 35 Carl’s Worry, War Outbreak
The vampire alliance army was heading to the front line.
On the way, two men were chatting in a luxurious carriage.
One of the older men seemed somewhat worried. He seemed to be worried about something.
His name was Carl. He was Kallen’s father and the head of the Castellan family.
The other man was his brother, Carter. He looked at his brother in confusion, not knowing what Carl was worried about.
“Brother, what’s wrong with you? You seemed to be in a bad mood when we set off. Are you worried about the outcome of this war?
“Don’t worry. We mobilized four dukes at once. With the strength of the orcs, they’re not our match at all.
“This time, we will definitely be able to wash away the humiliation from last time and completely take revenge on the orcs!
“We’ll take back all the land we lost!”
Carter comforted.
However, when he heard this, Carl shook his head.
“Of course I know that we can win. I’ve never doubted that.”
“Then what exactly…”
Before Carter could finish, Carl continued.
“I’m worried about the ancestor!”
“Ancestor?”
Carter became even more puzzled.
“So what? Isn’t he unable to go to the front line because of his closed-door cultivation? This is nothing, right? In any case, four dukes are enough!”
Carl shook his head and seemed very worried.
“There’s something I’ve never told anyone. Do you know? More than a month ago, I went to the place where our ancestor was in seclusion to invite him out and personally lead the army to fight the orcs.
“However, no matter what method I used, I did not receive any response from the ancestor. Even if he wanted to reject my request, why didn’t the ancestor say anything?
“I wonder what’s going on with the ancestor…”
Hearing this, Carter also fell into deep thought.
“Then Brother, do you mean that it’s very likely that the ancestor has already… No way, how could such a thing happen?! The ancestor
is a peak Duke expert…”
At this point, Carl immediately stopped his brother’s guess.
“It’s good that you know about this. Let’s stop
talking about it. You know what the ancestor means to our family. Be careful of others
eavesdropping!
“You can leave first. I still have to consider this
matter carefully. It’s time to consider the
future of our family!”
With that said, Carl got his brother to leave
immediately.
As soon as Carter walked out of Carl’s carriage, his eyes quickly turned cold.
Moreover, the respect he had for Carl in the car just now was completely gone. There was even some disdain!
“Hehe, idiot, you only realized that something might have happened to our ancestor now?
“It was really the stupidest decision of the ancestor back then to let you become the family head!”
Three days later, the allied army of the vampires finally arrived at the front line.
This was originally the territory of the vampires, but the orcs had fought their way in
after their previous failure.
This hinterland had instead become the
frontline of the war.
The orcs had clearly long learned of the news
of the vampire alliance, so they had long
prepared the overall situation.
The two sides spread out their formation on the vast plains between the cities and fell into a
confrontation!
They did this so that they wouldn’t alert the
enemy. It was also to preserve the highest combat strength of the vampires. Therefore, at the beginning of the war, the
vampires did not directly send four duke
experts to participate.
If these four experts joined the battle as soon
as they arrived, the orcs probably would not have collided head-on with the vampires at all
and would have directly retreated.
Only by luring the orc army out first and sending four duke experts to attack the enemy
could they cause the greatest casualties to the
orc army!
The war finally began. Orc soldiers and countless vampire warriors rushed towards each other.
The two sides entangled on the vast plain and kept causing casualties to the other party with the weapons in their hands.
“Charge, for the glory of the vampires!”
“Take back the land that belongs to us!”
“Let those stupid low level orcs taste our power!”
“Kill!” The vampire general roared and instantly
stabbed the sword in his hand into the body of an orc. Blood spewed out, giving this general a stronger fighting spirit.
The orc warriors were not afraid at all. They had already obtained victory in the previous war, so their morale was even stronger than
the vampires!
Every orc soldier believed that they could still obtain victory in today’s battle!
They believed that it would all go as planned!
As the war gradually progressed, the casualties of both sides quickly increased. War was like a meat grinder. No matter how
many soldiers were thrown in, war could
swallow them and suck the lives of these soldiers away.
The leader of the orcs was a Tauren chieftain
whose strength was equivalent to a duke expert of the vampire race.
At first, this Tauren chieftain thought that this
battle would be the same as the last time. It
would be a one-sided massacre and a crushing victory.
However, as the battle gradually progressed, he suddenly discovered that the fighting spirit of the vampires today was abnormally high. It was as if they did not know what death was at
all and were slashing crazily on the battlefield. Many vampire soldiers would even rather lose their lives just to take the life of an orc soldier. This combat style that was not afraid of death made the orcs suffer a huge loss. Moreover, the orcs had always had fewer people than the vampires, causing the orcs to be unable to withstand such unlimited
casualties.
At this moment, the number of deaths of the
orc army had already exceeded this Tauren chieftain’s expectations before the battle. He could not allow his people to continue to be sacrificed like this.
“Roar, bastards of the vampire race, let me end your lives!”
The Tauren chieftain roared and directly joined the battle on the plain.
Because he was the strongest person here, he could make a difference. After all, in this world, the higher one’s strength and level, the higher
their combat strength compared to people with weaker levels.
Therefore, as soon as this orc chieftain joined
the battle, the scales of victory immediately began to tilt towards the orcs. Even though the marquis experts in the
vampire army quickly reacted and gathered
their strength to fight the orc chieftain, they were still suppressed until they could not breathe.
The combat strength of the orc chieftain was really too terrifying. If this continued, the vampires would probably suffer defeat again
today. However, at this moment, four terrifying pressures suddenly appeared behind the vampire army. The four dukes had appeared!
