After finishing his discussions with Yalian III, Archbishop Duoxia quietly withdrew from the military camp.
Snowflakes fell from the sky, covering Grand Prince Abraham, who was lying prone on the top of the tent, soaking and covering his black and red Blood Court robes. The hem of his robes spread out, making him look like a giant white moth.
"Hmph, Your Majesty, there are many in the world who oppose you!"
Abraham's lips curled slightly, his dull eyes watching Archbishop Duoxia's departing figure, but he did not come out to stop him.
They didn't even try to stop Yalian III inside his tent.
"Sitting high on the Supreme, yet you don't know how to enjoy the beauty of power or maintain its stability. Instead, you waste your energy on meaningless things, whether it's painstakingly pushing New-Type Vampire to the forefront, tampering with Church scriptures, or building those so-called wonders of the century... Since you don't know how to enjoy the beauty of power, then I will enjoy it for you, Your Majesty."
Therefore, I also need to begin making some arrangements...
Everyone, human or ghost, is showing off, while the leaders of the two sides that started the war, Norton and His Majesty Adam, are either getting beaten up or on their way to getting beaten up.
In the year 95 of Norton, after fourteen years of war, the decline of the Papal State States was irreversible.
With frequent domestic conflicts, the poor, who had been brainwashed by the Church for many years, launched their first uprising, wanting to resist the cruel and tyrannical rule of the pope.
Although the uprising was quickly suppressed, it signified that the internal conflicts within the Papal State had reached a precarious state.
In comparison, the situation in the Blood Court and the Boya Empire is much better.
For many years, Norton has been having Second-Generation Vampire- and Third-Generation Vampire continuously convert people within the Boya Empire, and all law enforcement officers have now been transformed into Vampire.
This made Norton's orders unstoppable. Although the war had devastated the Boya Empire, Norton's mobilization orders remained unimpeded.
As long as the law enforcers are in Norton's hands, and as long as the people of the Boya Empire are not completely wiped out, then Norton is not in a bad situation, and there are no internal conflicts.
Winter of Norton 95.
A border city where the Papal State and the Boya Empire met suddenly rebelled, opening its gates and allowing the Boya Empire's allied forces to enter Papal State territory, completely changing the nature of the war.
The Boya Empire, which had always been attacked and had never invaded the Papal State, has now invaded Papal State territory for the first time in nearly a thousand years. This is truly a great achievement worthy of being recorded in history.
With the fall of the border cities guarded by high walls, the Papal State entered a period of continuous defeats.
In just five years, the Blood-Boya Allied Forces captured fifteen cities in succession. Wherever the alliance went, the Papal State were powerless to stop them. The Holy See could only continue to accumulate strength in order to fight a war that would completely turn the tide.
The poor people in the cities captured by the Blood-Boya Allied Forces originally welcomed the Blood-Boya Allied Forces with open arms, believing that their arrival would bring them a more stable life than that of the Blood-Boya Allied Forces Papal State.
But who could have imagined that the Blood Boya Empire's allied forces would inflict far more horrors on them than the Papal State?
On the day the allied forces enter the city, all images of God and religious artifacts will be destroyed by the Boya Empire's army. The next day, all nobles and rulers will be transformed into Vampire, and then the Vampire recruitment office will go out into the streets to forcibly recruit people into the army.
These Vampire, possessing extraordinary martial prowess, are far more effective against defenseless commoners than the previous Papal State. Church matter where you hide or how fast you run, they can pinpoint the location of your entire family in the blink of an eye. A single Vampire can easily subdue a group of more than ten people and send them into the military camp.
The Blood-Boya Allied Forces's brutal methods were remarkably effective. Within a month of entering the city, the curses and jeers had subsided considerably, as almost everyone had been captured. Anyone capable of fighting had been sent to the army, leaving only a few elderly, young, sick, and disabled people to eke out a living in the city.
Such a brutal method of conscription naturally resulted in low-quality soldiers, but Yalian III's sole purpose was to force these men onto the battlefield and compel them to charge forward.
Once the charge begins, they'll have to fight whether they want to or not; they'll be useful no matter what.
This is the fill-in-the-blank baby.
Instead, the Boya Empire's allied forces selected some young and strong soldiers for training, equipping them with armor from the Papal State that was engraved with images of God or religious beliefs, but did not send them to the battlefield.
It's clear that His Majesty Yalian III has a clear idea in mind.
As for what he had done, Abraham, that traitor, turned a blind eye and even appeared less and less often, seemingly carrying out some kind of operation on his own.
The Blood-Boya Allied Forces's advance has never stopped. Thanks to Norton's powerful control, a steady stream of filler babies are sent to the front lines to serve as human support and fuel for the Blood-Boya Allied Forces's advance.
Such a war, if it were the previous Boya Empire or other small kingdoms, would probably have ended in defeat and surrendered after most of their main fighting force had been wiped out. But the fact that the Papal State, brainwashed by faith, and the Blood Boya Empire, controlled by power, still have the strength to fight is truly a miracle in human history.
As the front lines advanced and conscription continued in the rear, New Faith also entered the Papal State.
With its beliefs in love and peace, mercy and kindness, it became the only salvation for those suffering under the multiple ravages of the Papal State and the Blood-Boya Allied Forces. In just a few months, it gathered a super-large number of believers, and its Pope ' Saint Peter ' was even revered as the ' Pure Angel ' and was worshipped by countless people, who were so devoted to him that they were even willing to give their lives for him.
The arrival of New Faith completely buried Old Faith in the city's history. Affected by the war, only ruins remained of the Old Faith churches. Now, only a few homeless people live here, and they can only bask in the last glimmer of the old Old Faith holy light in the various religious symbols destroyed by the Old Faith and the images of God splattered with red paint.
But that's all.
On the contrary, the New Faith New Testament, the Betrayal, and the Blood Pact spread widely, constantly distorting the image of God in people's hearts.
The concept of God and the same deity is being gradually stripped away...
