The Blood-Boya Empire Allied Forces marched towards the Holy See, determined to kill the Pope and annihilate religious imperial power!
Along the way, Church in various regions took the initiative to organize troops to block them, hoping to wear down the Blood-Boya Empire Allied Forces and protect the Holy See.
This greatly delayed the advance of the Blood-Boya Allied Forces, making Yalian III quite anxious.
They feared that the Pope would relocate the Holy See, thus prolonging the war and ultimately wearing down their Boya Empire and Blood Court, allowing them to escape disaster and rebuild.
Surprisingly, however, the current Pope Adam has shown no intention of relocating the Holy See from beginning to end, and there has been no news of any relocation of the capital.
This foolish and irrational act delighted Yalian III. He personally went to the front lines to oversee the army, boost morale, and wanted to speed things up to defeat the Pope of the Papal State, who had reigned supreme over his Boya Empire for a thousand years, and usher in a carefree imperial era.
They have already seen the dawn of victory!
In just five years, encouraged repeatedly by Yalian III, the Blood-Boya Allied Forces overcame numerous obstacles and defeated all the Church Blood-Boya Allied Forces that attempted to stop them, marching in a mighty force towards the Holy See.
However, for some unknown reason, the closer the Fourth-Generation Vampire got to the Holy See, the weaker they became. Even when they were still some distance from the Holy See, they were so frightened that they stopped in their tracks and dared not move forward.
This strange phenomenon caused Yalian III's expression to change.
To ensure his own safety and to guarantee his safe retreat when the Papal State deployed the Holy Knight, which had not yet been used, he deliberately removed his royal robes, hid among the troops, and continued to advance with the army.
However, the strange phenomena did not stop; instead, they became even more intense.
As the distance between the army and the Holy See narrowed, the Third-Generation Vampire gradually began to feel that they could no longer move an inch.
This feeling was different from the oppressive feeling of their progenitor, His Majesty Norton; it was a strong sense of repulsion, as if these Vampire were some disgusting and unclean thing, so repulsed that it was difficult to enter.
If a Third-Generation Vampire is forcibly moved forward, his body will undergo an abnormally terrifying decomposition process.
Its flesh and bones flowed down its body like muddy water, utterly annihilated, with no possibility of ever coming back to life.
Such a terrifying phenomenon caused Yalian III and Abraham, who was in charge of supervising the army, to change their expressions drastically and immediately stop the marching procession.
Immediately, the military camp was abuzz with discussion, and countless soldiers were filled with fear and speculation.
Some people believe that the Holy See is ultimately a place of faith in God and must be under God's protection, so Vampire, an unclean species, cannot enter it at all.
Some even believe that a true god exists within the Holy See! The aura he exudes alone is unbearable for Vampire.
Some even believe that Vampire cannot be too far from their progenitors, which is why they exhibit this stepped distribution of distance.
Alternatively, some believe that the Holy See, being the capital of Holy Lord Church, is so deeply religious because it gathers the faith of the entire nation, making it impossible for Vampire to approach.
For a time, opinions were divided, and everyone's guesses had some merit, causing considerable turmoil within the Blood-Boya Allied Forces.
The reason we've made it this far is because of the excitement and morale boost we've gained after finally seeing the light at the end of the tunnel.
Now that they are about to reach the Holy See, this incident has caused a significant drop in the morale of the Blood-Boya Allied Forces, and even some unrest has begun to break out in the camp.
But the collapse of the Holy See was imminent, and the millennia-old shackles of imperial rule were about to be broken. At this juncture, stopping because of this strange phenomenon was a result that Yalian III could not accept!
Under immense pressure, Yalian III defied public opinion and forcefully urged the army to march again, determined not to stop until the Holy See was destroyed!
Thus, the Blood Glass army set off again, marching in a mighty force towards the Holy See.
However, the strange phenomena did not stop.
As the army drew ever closer to the Holy See, the Second-Generation Vampire themselves began to struggle to advance, causing morale to plummet once again.
However, under Yalian III's urging, the army did not halt but instead accelerated its advance, determined to reach the Holy See before morale plummeted.
More than a month later, the Blood-Boya Allied Forces finally arrived outside the Holy See City.
The Holy Lord Church Holy See stands majestically on a high mountain. The entire front part of the Holy Lord Church is gathered in front of the mountain, and from the foot of the mountain to the mountainside, it is completely filled with the buildings of the Holy See. Only the part from the mountainside to the top of the mountain is undeveloped, so it looks like a palace mixed with greenery, and the clouds and mist on the top of the mountain make it look like a fairy palace.
The entire base of the mountain was surrounded by towering city walls, and combined with its treacherous terrain, it was truly a place that was easy to defend and difficult to attack!
"Your Majesty, that old Vampire Abraham is no longer alive!"
The troops are encamped, preparing to launch a fierce attack to completely overthrow the Holy See.
Yalian III stood on a high vantage point, gazing at the majestic Holy See in the distance, when a subordinate came to deliver a message to him.
"Oh? He's also showing signs of being unable to advance?" Yalian III raised an eyebrow and asked his attendant beside him.
"Yes, Your Majesty, that old Vampire is becoming increasingly panicked. He has now turned back, supposedly to invite the Blood Clan Progenitor... Your Majesty, should we take this opportunity to lay an ambush so that we can also keep the Blood Clan Progenitor in the Holy See?" The attendant stepped forward to advise, his face full of scheming and plotting.
A rare smile appeared on Yalian III's face, but he still waved his hand and said, "No need. Even if that Blood Clan Progenitor has the power to overturn the heavens, he still has a fatal weakness. My Boya Empire only needs to equip itself with silver arrowheads and fire a volley of arrows at him to easily behead him."
In contrast, the Werewolf and Holy Knight of the Holy See require real fighting to wear them down. If we are not careful, they will carry out a decapitation operation, which is the greatest threat to my secular imperial power!
Therefore, our current goal remains the overthrow of the Pope's rule, not the so-called Vampire Progenitor.
Yalian III, crowned and atop the hill, casually decided the future course of events, truly feeling he possessed the qualities of a wise ruler.
However, he was far too naive compared to his father, his words were all about imperial power, and his thoughts were all about ruling.
Compared to His Majesty Adam, who considered the well-being of all people, they were truly too naive.
However, compared to someone like Norton who just wants to live forever, he is far ahead.
