For more than 2,000 years, the Church of the Father and the Brotherhood have been at loggerheads, each with its own winners and losers. But in the past 200 years, there have been more losses and fewer victories, and five years ago, the Healer's Clan developed a genetic improvement technique that injected many high-level vampires with demon genes.

The vampires' strength has increased dramatically, and the Church of the Heavenly Father has been overwhelmed.

Some time ago, the Church raised an army to fight vampires, and was defeated in France, and the entire army was wiped out. Pope Francis fled in disarray before he escaped and ascended to heaven.

Compared with the church, the performance of the newly rising demon race is remarkable, first across the east, exterminating the clan of healers, the clan of death, and the clan of killing, and then going to the United States, in one fell swoop, to get rid of the degenerate, cursed and wandering family, not long ago once again wiped out the cold, power, and chaos of the three clans, the momentum is so strong, the Heavenly Father Sect can hardly look at its back.

In the Heavenly Father's Sect, represented by Pope Richelieu, those who are hostile to the demons feel disgraced. Although they had to acquiesce to the situation and cooperate with the demons to deal with vampires together.

But the root still thinks that one day, the church and the demons will break out into conflict, in order to show their strength and deter the demons, they are determined to fight with the brotherhood, with a complete victory to let Chongxu and his demons know the power of the church.

On the other hand, some of the higher-ranking members of the Heavenly Father Sect, represented by the Bishop of St. Mang's Pasha, also felt that it was a shame to be defeated repeatedly, but they asked for the initiative for another purpose.

They want to win the respect of the demons with a victory, and let the demons know that the clergy of the Heavenly Father's Church are good and trustworthy allies.

Whatever the purpose, the Church of the Father's war decision has been set in stone, vowing to give the Brotherhood a little color.

Therefore, on the second day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, 1,300 clergy from six branches, including the North American Anglican Church, the South American Shengyao Church, the Eastern European St. Mang's Pasha, the South African Shengming Church, and the Nordic Holy Spirit Church, put on civilian clothes and went straight to the Black Forest region on the German border under the leadership of Pope Richelieu, Bishops Francis, Maxin, Pasha, Fernando, and Aosta.

The reason why the Church of the Father has a clear grasp of the position of the brotherhood is because of a program called "devotees." 500 years ago, the Church of the Father sent a group of clergy to infiltrate the Brotherhood. Through various ways to let these Heavenly Fathers accept the first embrace and infiltrate the Brotherhood, they lurk silently in the Brotherhood.

Since vampires have mastered powerful spiritualism and can search for memories, the church will seal the memories of these clergy to evade vampires' retrieval. Unless the Pope uses the "art of revival", they will never know who they are, from there, and will only obediently serve the vampires.

From the very beginning of its design, the "Devotee" program has been designated as a top secret that can only be activated at critical moments. Only the Pope and the twelve bishops knew what was going on, and the rest of the congregation had never even heard of it.

Successive popes left their last words that the "devotee" program should not be used lightly except at a critical moment to decide fate.

That is, when the church is facing great difficulties or when there is hope of destroying the brotherhood in one fell swoop, the "devotees" can be awakened.

Pope Richelieu believes that now is the right time for his views to be shared by the bishops. Richelieu then uses the "Art of Revival", and the next day a vampire viscount comes to his door.

This viscount was one of the "devotees", and after his initial embrace he became a member of the Indulgence Clan, and for the next few hundred years, he was recognized by his "father" for his outstanding performance, becoming the leader of a squad.

Now he is serving as the leader of a squad responsible for the defense of the northern side of the base camp.

When he informed Richelieu of the location of the Brotherhood's headquarters, Richelieu was overjoyed and immediately gathered his men and headed straight for the Black Forest, intending to attack at dawn.

But he didn't notice that when the army was marching out, a wicked smile appeared on the face of a priest at the back of the procession.

The Church of the Father can plant spies within the brotherhood, and so can the brotherhood.

Long ago, the Brotherhood used its power and wealth to try to win over the clergy of the church to depravity.

In this regard, Francis is most aware that in the past two decades, nearly a quarter of the clergy of the Anglican Church under his leadership have thrown themselves into the arms of the brotherhood, including high-ranking members such as the pope and the priesthood.

On the surface, they take believers to Mass and pray, but behind the scenes, they are serving the Brotherhood.

It took Francis nearly half a year to purge them.

There were also such figures around Pope Richelieu, the most powerful of which was Richelieu's personal attendant, Alfred Rodel.

Rodell was born into a middle-class family that had believed in the Father for generations, and was a devout believer.

It stands to reason that when he entered the church as a person, he should start from the grassroots level and rise step by step, and it is absolutely impossible to become a priest at the age of thirty.

The reason why he improved so quickly was due to Richelieu's trust and promotion.

He was very grateful for Richelieu's kindness, and it stands to reason that he should be loyal to Richelieu and should not betray the Church.

But he has a bad habit of frequenting gay hangouts. As an ordinary person, this is not a big problem, but as a priest, his bad habits can ruin his future at any time.

Coincidentally, gay bars are also frequented by vampires, and vampires who found out about him entering and leaving such places immediately reported him - and he was caught by vampires.

Under the persecution of vampires, he constantly revealed information about the church to the Brotherhood.

And the price paid for this is that the deeper he falls, the more he wants to turn back, it is absolutely impossible.

He gradually became accustomed to this state of affairs, and fell in love with the vast wealth provided by the Brotherhood, and completely degenerated.

The defeat of the Church army in France was the result of his early revelation of the Church's route to action, which was intercepted by the vampires.

Now, the Church of the Father is moving again, and before it can get out of the church, the brotherhood has already learned about Richelieu's plans and movements, and has laid a net in the morning. Just waiting for him to drill into the trap.

Poor Richelieu was fooled twice in a row and still didn't know it, still dreaming of his defeat of the Brotherhood and the defeat of the demons.

The 1,300 church members approached the Black Forest in three groups of 10 cars, 15 buses and 10 trucks.

Along the way, the devotees pointed out the secret sentry of the name card, and the church people, led by Bishop Pasha, attacked in turn, killing the vampire in the outpost.
