Norton sat upright on his throne, his indifferent eyes sweeping over Yalian III, who had turned around and whose expression was somewhat unpleasant.
Upon meeting the gaze of this tall, pale monster, the anger and murderous intent that had just ignited within him unconsciously transformed into terror and trembling.
However, as the ruler of a nation, Yalian III still possessed the aura of an emperor.
"Your Majesty Norton, King Rosen has spoken disrespectfully and has now received his due punishment, so this matter ends here..."
Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Norton, the progenitor.
After a long pause, His Majesty Norton finally spoke for the second time, uttering his third sentence.
"Enough! I came here hoping to achieve an open and honest cooperation."
However, facts have proven that the human nature is inherently prone to creating trouble out of nothing, and is filled with the ugliness of repaying kindness with enmity.
Cunning is in your nature, betrayal is your character.
Rather than cooperating with you inhuman wolves who are prone to betrayal at any moment, it would be better for me, His Blood Clan Progenitor Norton, the progenitor of the vampires, to control the armies of the Boya Empire and thus counterbalance the Papal State!
Norton's words shocked everyone present.
This Blood Clan Progenitor is going to betray us on the spot!
Abraham, however, didn't dare to raise his head.
For some reason, he always felt that His Holiness the First Ancestor was referring to him Abraham.
"What! Are you sick? You're afraid we'll betray the agreement, so you betray us first? Damn it, you inhuman monsters are not worthy of any trust!" Yalian III laughed angrily, almost dying of rage at Norton's words.
However, he was quick-witted enough to realize that the monster had malicious intentions, so he immediately tried to escape to the side.
Damn it, everything was fine just now, and then this damn Vampire suddenly tried to attack without warning? This inhuman monster is definitely not worth trusting at all!
"Protect His Majesty's safety!"
"Whoosh!" Upon hearing Norton's words and witnessing the dramatic turn of events, the heavily armored knight, who had not yet returned to his original position, immediately drew his silver sword and prepared to surround Norton, Abraham, and Elizabeth.
However, at this moment, the pale monster sitting on the wooden throne stood up. He then stretched out his pale arm, grabbed the solid gold throne of Yalian III, which weighed more than ten tons, and threw it away like a rag doll.
"Boom!!!"
With a deafening roar, the solid gold throne slammed into a group of heavily armored knights who had surrounded it from behind.
Under such terrifying force, an entire squad of heavily armored knights were slammed against the wall behind them by the pure gold throne as if they were made of paper. Their steel armor was smashed into thin pancakes, and the momentum did not diminish. They even smashed a huge hole in the palace wall.
Such terrifying power chilled everyone to the bone!
Blood mixed with minced meat splattered all over the ground, and the stench of blood instantly filled the air, causing screams and complete chaos throughout the palace.
The Yalian Imperial Family were so terrified they nearly wet themselves. The braver ones were able to command the remaining heavily armored soldiers to rescue the emperor, while the cowardly ones had already fled to the surrounding area.
However, Abraham, in his lower rank, had his skin torn apart, and in the blink of an eye, he transformed into a black bat-like monster, charging towards the remaining heavily armored soldiers who were trying to surround Norton.
He was filled with remorse as he rushed forward.
Damn it, that damned Elizabeth beat me to it again! How can His Majesty trust me, Abraham, now?
"Quickly, quickly, someone carrying religious relics, save me!"
Yalian XXX, his soul trembling with fear, could no longer care about imperial dignity and fled towards the palace behind him, howling in agony.
However, he had only run a couple of steps when a howling gust of wind hit his face.
"Boom!" With another loud bang, the magnificent window of the palace was smashed open by two huge, bat-like monsters with wings, which then crashed into the hall and landed in front of Yalian III.
"Hiss..." A hoarse hissing sound came from the mouths of the two bat-like creatures. The terrified Yalian III was grabbed by one of the monsters and could no longer escape.
"Help me!!!" Yalian III was terrified, so much so that he almost vomited.
Only then did his prepared backup plan for dealing with the Vampire arrive, belatedly.
There's nothing we can do; Norton changes his mind too quickly. He turns on you at the drop of a hat, which no one could have predicted.
Fortunately, Vampire fear the Church's methods. Even though they have captured Yalian III, as long as the holiness of God emanating from these religious artifacts shines upon these Vampire, they will have no power to resist and can only be burned to ashes!
His eyes also turned toward Norton.
As expected, even as the Blood Clan Progenitor, possessing the immense strength to cleave steel with a single claw, Norton still had to dodge the silver swords wielded by those heavily armored knights as he fought them.
The progenitor Norton, clad in a scarlet robe, grabbed a heavily armored knight with his pale hand and slammed him against the wall, causing his body to explode into pieces. However, as he turned, he consciously dodged the silver sword thrusting from behind, a scene witnessed by Abraham, who was also dodging the heavy armored knight's silver sword.
"Even after evolving to such a stage, he still fears silver? His Majesty the Progenitor not only has a bloodthirsty madness, but is also affected by silver... If he wasn't faking it, then the saying that his death would lead to the death of other Vampire might really be true, since Vampire in the old era did not fear silver objects."
It seems my previous assumption might have been wrong. This Progenitor might not be Vampire from the old era... unless he consciously pretended to be one for eighty years...
Norton's paranoia is too extreme; he's been feigning weakness for over eighty years!
He always believed that even someone as powerful as God could be betrayed and killed. Norton it better to hide his strength and appear weak than to show it, so that he could be surprised when someone rebelled.
Moreover, Norton wasn't just creating weaknesses; he was even feigning weakness.
The speed that can be unleashed by its immense power is undoubtedly terrifying, since the two are directly proportional.
However, Norton's fighting style was not particularly fast, allowing Abraham to get a general idea of what was happening.
This was intentional on Norton's part; after all, if even Abraham could see the speed of His Majesty the First, it would undoubtedly lack credibility.
But in reality, if he were to exert his full strength, Abraham would be completely unable to see the patriarch's movements.
While dodging the heavy-armored knight's silver sword, Abraham, whose attention was focused on the progenitor, missed the scene of two bats fighting behind him.
Silver swords slashed and stabbed at the two bats, but Coal Ball and Plum Blossom stubbornly held onto Yalian III despite the onslaught of swords piercing their bodies.
The silver swords that pierced them couldn't even penetrate their defenses; they showed no fear of silver.
On the contrary, their attack speed and intensity were so great that they killed anyone who touched them. They even ripped holes in the walls of the hall, making it impossible for the surrounding knights to see their attacks.
Only when the knight carrying the image of God and religious symbols ran up and pointed it at the two bats did they let out a mournful wail.
"Hiss..." Coal Ball roared shrilly as it clutched Yalian III, its body and Plum Blossom's body burning fiercely under God's holy light.
However, the next moment, as if some function had been activated, their bodies began to harden gradually, and they even began to grow a layer of shell that looked like stone from the inside out.
In a short time, two Gargoyle were created. These two bat-like monsters were completely turned into stone statues and were no longer susceptible to any attacks.
Only Yalian III, still held by the stone statue in Coal Ball's hands, was on the verge of suffocating.
"Boom!!!"
With another deafening roar, five hundred Third-Generation Vampire dragged Norton's palace, smashing down the entire gates of Norton Boya Empire's royal palace like a bulldozer. Behind the palace, a dense Blood Clan knights had already surrounded the entire Boya Empire's royal palace...
The palace in Hajinuo officially became part of the Boya Empire's royal palace.
