To the great relief of the Alania Resistance Army, the terrifying battles against the zombies and mutated beasts did not require their involvement; even the Resist Chambord Army rarely participated, with His Majesty the King handling everything alone.
Since he'd already been crowned with the titles of 'Savior,' ' Human Emperor of the Northern Region,' and ' Pope of the Temple, ' there was no need for him to deliberately keep a low profile anymore. Sun Fei openly used the Paladin skill [ Cleansing ].
Wherever the golden flames passed, all evil existence and aura were completely wiped away, and light returned to the earth. Sun Fei was like a Sun Teleport across the ground, releasing light and heat. Wherever he went, he easily dispelled all evil. In everyone's eyes, this was simply an incredible miracle. Naturally, Sun Fei's fame spread at an incredible speed.
As a result, every day, large numbers of refugees broke through numerous blockades and obstacles, enduring countless hardships, to seek the protection of the ' Human Emperor of the Northern Region '.
Thus, Sun Fei's name, along with his title of "[ Human Emperor of the Northern Region ]", spread like the Sun's rays throughout the ancient land of Alania.
Over the next month, the army advanced with unstoppable momentum. With the full support of Sun Fei and the Chambord Army, the six major military cities within Alania were liberated, and the surrounding zombies and mutated beasts were wiped out, bringing light back to the land.
Militarily, the four main military legions of the Anzhi people stationed within Alania were completely defeated, losing at least 60,000 elite troops and countless military supplies. The small-scale Alania Resistance Army transformed into the Alania regular army capable of large-scale warfare, their strength increasing dramatically. Under the mobilization of the entire population, their main fighting force approached 200,000, and the number of other militia and other groups was countless. {Uploaded and updated by a friend}
This process was like a snowball rolling downhill; almost every Alania people was filled with hatred for the Anzhi people. As long as they could pick up a weapon, their first choice was to join the army, take up arms, and Vengeance against the Anzhi people.
In less than two months, over 70% of the territory of Alania has been liberated, and the restoration of the Alania Empire is in sight.
This series of lightning-fast offensives and achievements shook the entire Northern Region.
The name [Northern Emperor] Alexander has truly become a representative who can stand on equal footing with giants like Emperor Blanco of the Lyon Empire and Emperor Zenit Yashin. People no longer view Sun Fei merely as 'the king of a small vassal state'. In addition, the true strength of the remote town of Chambord has also become one of the focal points of attention for major powers in the Northern Region and even other regions.
Of course, the title of "[ Human Emperor of the Northern Region ]" that spread throughout Alania also caused Sun Fei a lot of trouble in Zenit, but that's a story for another time.
After conquering six cities in succession, Sun Fei's invincible advance finally came to a slight halt.
The Chambord Army settled in Didikaka City, the sixth largest city in Alania and the former capital of the Alania Empire.
The reclaimed territory needed time for the Alania people to digest. Although the [ Black-Robed Holy Temple ] had developed rapidly during this period, it had been in decline for a long time and could not swallow such a large piece of the pie all at once. Fortunately, the churches left by the Holy Church in the various major cities were magnificent and usable, which saved Sun Fei the trouble of spending a lot of money to build temples.
Anna, the female warrior who had always followed Sun Fei, and Edward, the mercenary strongman, broke through to the Two-Star Class Dou Qi stage, and their strength increased dramatically. As for the young Leo, Sun Fei took special care of him, spending some [ Hulk Potion ] and divine medicine to incredibly raise his strength to the Three-Star Class stage in a very short time. Half a month ago, Sun Fei even took the young man as a disciple, giving him great Glory.
Because of Sun Fei's favor with the [ Human Emperor of the Northern Region ], and coupled with Leo's outstanding performance during this period, this boy, who will be fifteen years old in half a year, has gained great fame among the Alania people.
Having essentially achieved 'de facto restoration', the Alania people began their efforts to formally 'restore their nation'. From military strategists and newly rich to ordinary poor people, everyone showed great enthusiasm for rebuilding the Alania Empire. Finding the bloodline of the former Alania royal family and reorganizing Alania royal family became the top priority. Unfortunately, this seemingly 'small matter', which was countless times simpler than war, stumped everyone.
It turns out that all members of the Alania royal family were brutally slaughtered by the Anzhi people after the capital was captured, leaving no trace of royal blood. The lineage was completely severed. Other local nobles who were qualified to inherit the throne were either exterminated by the Anzhi army or turned into zombies by dark forces. In the entire area of 700,000 to 800,000 square kilometers, not a single bloodline qualified to inherit the throne could be found.
If a person qualified to inherit the throne of Alania cannot be found to rebuild the royal family, according to the ancient traditions of the continent, the restoration of the kingdom can only be a beautiful but laughable joke.
Just then, a rumor spread from who-knows-where: someone confidently claimed that Leo, the young disciple of His Majesty Alexander Human Emperor of the Northern Region, was actually the offspring of a distant relative of the former royal family, and that he possessed a certain degree of Alania royal blood.
Then, more and more evidence emerged.
Someone 'accidentally' spotted a long-lost royal personal ornament on young Leo. After verification by some knowledgeable Old Man, it was confirmed that this was indeed a gift bestowed by the former Emperor of Alania upon one of his illegitimate sons. However, this prince later mysteriously disappeared, his whereabouts remaining unknown. This ornament, to some extent, confirms that young Leo is likely a descendant of this missing prince.
Thus, young Leo seemed to be the only one qualified to inherit the throne of Alania.
Although there was no shortage of intrigue and power struggles, and various doubts abounded, the immense prestige that Sun Fei, the [ Human Emperor of the Northern Region ], and the Chambord Army had accumulated in previous battles, along with the propaganda of the [ Black-Robed Holy Temple ], the new faith leader of the Alania people, played an overwhelming role. As a disciple, Leo was undoubtedly boosted by Sun Fei's aura, and public opinion was hard to defy. Moreover, with the Chambord Army pushing him from behind, the final result was that Leo truly became the restorer of Alania, known as Emperor Leo.
