"Boom!!!"
A massive explosion resounded through the imperial city of the Aodelan Empire, waking Miles XIII from his sleep.
Miles XIII immediately got up from his bed and drew back the curtains.
He already knew from the sound that the explosion must be coming from the direction of the Pale God Norton.
Sure enough, as the curtains were lifted, a shocking scene appeared before his eyes.
In the distance, at the Pale God, a ferocious and terrifying monster, ten meters long and with a wingspan of thirty meters, with terrifying horns and a face like a bat, flapped its wings and rose from the ground. Its enormous body, as large as a small mountain, roared and slowly flew away into the sky.
The huge explosion was actually a sonic boom from the flapping of its wings!
"Chirp!"
Some pebbles were sent flying by the gale-force winds whipped by the monster's wings, their force even reaching over a kilometer, and struck the glass in front of Miles XIII's bed.
What is that?
"Protect His Majesty!"
The guards outside the room only entered at this moment, and could only see Miles XIII's gloomy face.
"Damn it! What is that thing? Why is there such a terrifying creature beside that Pale God?!"
Miles XIII suddenly felt that things had developed in a way that was beyond his expectations, and that his understanding of the Pale God was far too superficial.
"Damn it, damn it, damn it! Bring the head of the intelligence department here, bring him here!!!"
The Southern Continent also has time zones.
At this moment, it is nighttime in the Aodelan Empire, but in the Holy Boya Empire, located at a different latitude, it is just dusk, the time for dinner.
The royal palace of the Holy Boya Empire is exceptionally lively today.
This was because the first battle was temporarily suspended. Although the casualties on both sides were evenly matched, most of the territory lost by the Holy Boya Empire in the past had been recovered.
This undoubtedly means that they have won a victory in this massive war.
Such a victory led some smaller nations to flatter the Holy Boya Empire and even seek to join it in order to gain benefits when it ultimately triumphed.
Therefore, the banquet is not only a victory celebration, but also a formal reception, to entertain the diplomatic officials from the five small countries and the general of the Holy Noah Empire.
Soldiers on the front lines were starving and freezing to death due to lack of food and water, and many could only rely on cigarettes provided by the empire to maintain their last bit of fighting spirit.
The imperial banquet, however, was exceptionally lavish, with whole pigs and sheep served as if they were free, and a wide variety of drinks and out-of-season fruits were also laid out in abundance.
While the peasant's son died in battle, these high-ranking officials of the empire were still indulging in pleasure and romance.
"Hahaha, the situation is now clear. The Aodelan Empire is ultimately a newly established empire with insufficient foundation. If this continues, we may be able to launch a counterattack on the Aodelan Empire's capital in another two years!"
The Holy Boya Empire's current achievements are largely thanks to General Luosi! General Luosi, let me, as the ruler of this nation, offer you a cup of hot wine!
Similarly, I thank the envoys from other countries for coming.
The Aodelan Empire is cruel and inhumane. Since all countries are so sincere, my Holy Boya Empire will certainly not refuse them. With such concerted efforts, our alliance's victory is just around the corner!
cheers!"
Noah XIII laughed heartily, stood up with great gusto, raised his wine glass, and then drank it all in one gulp.
As he did so, the envoys from other countries also stood up, raised their wine glasses, and showered Noah XIII with compliments.
"Hahaha, Your Majesty's insight has always been sharp. The final outcome will surely be as Your Majesty has predicted: the brutal and inhumane Aodelan Empire is destined for ultimate destruction!"
"Hmph, that Emperor of the Aodelan Empire is utterly foolish, thinking that old Vampire is his greatest backer, and even revering him as some so-called Pale God. He's completely ignorant!"
When our allied army arrives at the city gates, we will surely drag out that Pale God and behead him!
"Hahaha, that pale joke is utterly ridiculous! To still be practicing a thousand-year-old Mass policy in this day and age, the Aodelan Empire is really going backwards! But if it weren't for this Pale God, I'm afraid Miles wouldn't have dared to launch such a forceful military campaign."
Now he's shot himself in the foot, and he deserves it! Only that so-called Pale God, that ancient relic from a thousand years ago, doesn't hide and live on in the present, but insists on showing off. When we conquer the capital, we'll drag him through the streets, letting our people see this joke from a thousand years ago!
"Ha ha ha ha..."
The palace was filled with laughter; the nobles laughed heartily, and the servants around them all wore smiles.
However, just as the atmosphere of the banquet was becoming increasingly lively...
"Huff... huff..."
A faint sound of violent wind could be heard, initially going unnoticed, but it quickly grew louder and louder, becoming increasingly closer and more violent.
"Hmm? Has the situation changed?" Some of the powerful and influential people already showed strange expressions, and one of them asked a waiter standing to the side.
As the wind grew increasingly violent and seemed to be rapidly approaching, a strange sense of unease arose amidst the lively banquet.
Noah XIII frowned slightly, listening carefully to the rapidly approaching, enormous wind, then smiled dismissively.
"Hahaha, everyone, please enjoy the food, drink, and performance. There are no tornadoes within the Holy Boya Empire."
The emperor's words calmed the assembled dignitaries down.
"Haha, Your Majesty is right, but this wind is truly strange; it seems there might be extreme weather ahead." General Luosi raised his glass, toasting Noah XIII and laughing heartily.
No sooner had he spoken than someone echoed, "Hahaha, it can't be because we disrespected the name of that Pale God that we were punished by Him!"
"Ha ha ha ha..."
Such banter restored harmony to the banquet atmosphere.
However, before the laughter had subsided, a thunderous sound boomed from afar and struck in an instant.
"I am Abraham, Duke of the Blood Clan! The Holy Boya Empire, the Holy Noah Empire, and all those who disrespect Your Majesty, shall suffer the cruel punishment of death!!!"
The deafening roar made the ears of everyone inside the sacred Boya Palace ring, and even caused some blood to flow.
However, as soon as those words were spoken...
"Boom!!!"
A colossal monster, ten meters tall with a wingspan of over thirty meters, plummeted from the sky in an instant, crashing into the top of the magnificent palace of the Holy Noah Empire like a giant meteorite.
"Boom!!!"
The entire palace roof collapsed instantly, sending debris flying everywhere. The enormous monster crushed and killed a large number of nobles within the palace, turning them into a bloody pulp.
However, immediately following closely behind, in the distant sky, countless enormous figures, one after another, like a cataclysmic disaster, covered the entire imperial city of the Holy Noah Empire, crashing down one after another!
"Boom! Boom!!"
More than fifty towering figures, resembling demons, wielded their massive bodies in the night, destroying everything in the imperial city.
Treasures of calligraphy and painting, carved beams and painted rafters, were all reduced to dust under its enormous body and immense force; the crystallization of human wisdom was reduced to ruins.
The Holy Boya Empire's Emperor Noah XIII was crushed to death by Abraham when he fell into the imperial city...
He, Abraham, was like a docile dog before His Majesty Norton, but here, who dared not address him as Grand Prince Abraham?
