*** ***

Everyone in Lennie looked up, looking at the night sky, which was supposed to be devoid of any anomalies. On this cold winter snowy night, the sun is shining.

That sunshine!

What a dazzling sunshine it was!

The fiery sun that poured down on the earth without reservation and without shelter!

The sun that illuminates everything, warms everything, and makes all the Bloods who inhabit the darkness tremble and turn to ashes!

The massive magical dimensional interface stopped just below the clouds, covering the thick clouds, leaving the night and shadows unrecognizable.

The summer sunshine transformed from the small islands of South New Island pours unreservedly over the city through the interface. The scent of the tropical sea breeze is in the air, and the scene is like a dream.

It's just "like a dream".

When dreams reach their highest point, they often announce the collapse of dreams. This dreamy sunshine is already an elegy for shattering dreams in itself.

Reality is like a needle, it always keeps piercing people's dreams. When all the dreams are shattered, people will see the cruel reality.

Reece Seiffel knew she had almost nothing left – but she couldn't afford to lose more.

“...... Hold Person!"

At least, she had time to save her friends in this era.

Soleton looked up, surprised at the fiery sunlight pouring over the earth. The moment he saw the sun, he knew that this was the opportunity he was looking for.

At that time, he was wearing the uniform of a second lieutenant of the Free Army, mingling with the remnants of Lemda's defeated army. The military uniform was taken from the body of St. Grace's Welfare Home.

By the time he rushed back to the orphanage, the Lemda army had already evacuated with their only trophy. Perhaps unable to kill children and former lovers, the Major General simply locked the others in a small room. There, he came up with the plan to rescue Danica.

Truth be told, it's not that hard to sneak into the ranks of the defeated soldiers, especially for a magician. Although Soleton doesn't know "advanced" magic such as invisibility, relying on early magic such as charm is enough to make the soldiers identify with this "platoon commander without subordinates".

But he still couldn't find a chance to get close to Danica. The girl was watched by ten soldiers, and Soleton couldn't get any way closer, let alone hand her the ring, the teleportation ring that Villetina had solemnly asked him for. He didn't know how to control advanced mind control magic, and he didn't have the ability to create opportunities—he had never resented his lack of ability as much as he did now.

"God, just give me a chance......"

As he prayed, he saw the dazzling sun. He didn't have time to think about the cause of this phenomenon—but he knew that he had been waiting for this opportunity for a long time. He noticed that everyone was looking up at the sky, oblivious to their surroundings......

Suddenly, a deliberately suppressed magic exploded around Soleton. He felt the magic touch on his will, and he retreated like lightning.

Is there a mage other than him operating nearby? However, it seems that they are friends and foes......

He seized the moment, climbed into the flatbed, and quietly approached Danika, placing the amethyst ring on her finger.

“...... Meditate in your heart that you want to go to a safe place!

The boy whispered in the girl's ear, sounding as if he was entrusting him with his dream.

Purple teleportation magic lights up, and Danika López disappears into thin air with the magic fluctuations, leaving for safety.

Rise, who was about to fall to the ground, was stunned and looked from the air at the mysterious magician who was wearing a second lieutenant uniform but had saved Denika.

At this distance, she couldn't recognize his appearance, but she could make out the magical traits of the "infallible teleportation". Even in her time, it was a rather advanced and difficult magic to master. That must have been a great mage, she judged.

A faint smile appeared on her face: "...... Then I'll leave it to you, thank you for rescuing her. ”

The disguised words reached the officer's ears through the art of communication. The "second lieutenant officer", who had just jumped out of the car and ducked into the crowd, looked around and gave a thumbs up to his right hand in response.

Seeing this response, Rose Seiffel turned around and flew in the direction where her sister was. Her figure was always hidden in the sunlight, and no one saw it.

"Thank you...... But what now?"

After softly thanking the unknown archmage, Soleton began to think about his escape. He scratched his head and looked around: around him were the López army, ten times their strength.

"It's a nuisance. He muttered, "Surrender." ”

*** ***

"It's a nuisance. ”

Dikhao Lemda, realizing that the hostages were gone, muttered to himself, almost stopping to think.

Before, the fiery sunlight that poured down on the earth almost dazzled him. Thinking that his senses had gone wrong, he rubbed his eyes: but the sunlight was still shining on the ground. Lemda turned her gaze to the opposing array, and noticed that all the soldiers of the López Army had also raised their heads. The soldiers stared blankly at the sunlight in the sky, unaware of the previous order to "march the whole army."

If you want to break through, it's now! Major General Lemda, who made this decision, turned around sharply, only to find that ......

His hostages are gone.

He felt a dizziness in front of him: was such a big magic just to save that guy's daughter?

His hands were raised, lowered, raised, and lowered. Faced with an enemy of unfathomable strength, he no longer dared to issue an order to attack. After the previous coercion, he no longer had any extravagant hopes for the option of "surrender".

"But I still have an invisible cloak......"

This sudden thought made him tremble all over. Do you want to abandon the remnants of your subordinates and choose the path of living in steal? Do you want to abandon honor completely?

His lips trembled, showing the struggle in his heart. He finally made his decision...... That is the most "reasonable" decision.

"Let my body hide ......"

Before he could finish activating the password, a flash of blue light slashed across his neck, cutting a neat notch, and blood gushing out.

"Farewell, Major General Lemda. I grant you a glorious death as a final gift. ”

Clad López didn't look back, not once. He just walked forward, forward, as if nothing had happened before.

The middle-aged man did not dare to look back, because he was afraid that he would collapse in grief after turning back. From the moment he made his decision, he could only continue to move forward and fight to the death with the main enemy forces in the north.

The vampire "tax collectors" and "knights" who were trying to control the emotions of the crowd all looked up in amazement at the transparent night sky.

"Just kidding...... it's the middle of the night!"

Before they could react, the sun poured over them completely. The pale and delicate skin was exposed to the sun, and immediately changed from white to light brown, then to dark brown, light black, and deep black, until it began to emit green smoke. The thinner bloods of the cursed blood had turned into smoke and dust in half a minute, and the more powerful bloods could only hold on, summoning their companions who were not afraid of the sun to escort them into the shadows nearby.

Just as no human can use magic when he's seriously injured, no Bloodline can cast his abilities in sunlight. The control of mental power was immediately relaxed.

The people who have been manipulated and used wake up from their excitement and look at each other to confirm the current situation. They also raised their heads and looked at the sunlight that illuminated everything.

"What's going on? Why is it dawning again?"

"What does 'call for peace' and anything like that have to do with me?"

"There is an army...... Run for your life!"

The waves spread from the very front of the line. As the first, second, and third men began to flee, the crowd gradually faltered. I don't know where it started, the array of parades began to crumble. The flow of people quickly dispersed into the streets of Lennie faster than they had gathered.

"The front of the gun is facing up!" A timely order, issued from López's headquarters, "The cavalry team moves in and disperses the crowd!" Leave the ninth company behind the palace to clean up the local battlefield, and the rest of the troops immediately accept the new order and move out!"

Clad, whose brow was still furrowed, quickly gave the order, and in a snap of his fingers he completed a new deployment map.

The cavalry company galloped along several main roads, speeding up the dispersal. Some civilians have died in trampling each other, but this has no bearing on the trajectory of history.

The wall in front of López's army disappeared like this, and the balance of victory and defeat began to tilt again.

"Sir, there's good news, Miss Denika may not be dead yet...... Hull returned to headquarters with a new report.

Clad just smiled bitterly and gestured to stop him.

"After I made the decision to sacrifice her, Danica, my daughter, was dead. There's no way she'll ever come back here and she won't be my daughter again. ”

The lieutenant general tried to turn over and get on his horse, but his legs shook, but he couldn't get up. He tried again, and then he stepped on the horse.

"I know her because she's also López. ”

After that, for a long, long time, he never mentioned his daughter again.

*** ***

With the delicious blood in his hand, the vampire prince, who was standing high and controlling everything, also raised his head and looked in amazement at the sunlight shining into the room through the glass window.

A ray of sunlight shone on his hand holding the tall glass, leaving a small stain. The prince felt a tingling pain, subconsciously threw away the glass, and jerked down the heavy curtains. He took two steps back, letting the darkness cover him again. Sunlight wasn't fatal to him, but it wasn't anything he was comfortable with.

"It's simply beyond the ...... calculations"

The prince devised a contingency plan that was sufficient to deal with the situation of all the senior priests of the Orthodox and Protestant churches, but he never envisaged a situation in which "night turned into day". He quickly calculated the changes that would arise in this situation—each outcome made him shudder.

Feeling the burns on his hands, he walked quickly to his desk, picked up a magical communication item that read "Sound Only", and contacted "Wang".

"I beg you to cancel the operation. Whether it was a miracle or a manpower, the other party's ability was beyond the limits that Lennie's branch and even the entire southern district could handle. We need to investigate further. ”

There was a moment of silence on the other side, believing it to be the "King" watching Lennie's current state with his omnipresent extracellular vision. It took a minute for the answer to arrive.

"I allow, the operation is canceled. ”

Hearing this, he replied with peace of mind, and the prince leaned back in his chair. The worst could finally be avoided, he thought.

"Attention all personnel, immediately withdraw to the shelter......s!

He only hopes that the losses will be smaller, smaller.

*** ***

The "Bishops" and "Knights" who were about to pursue the mysterious enemy also raised their heads and looked in amazement at the fiery sunlight pouring down on the earth. It only took a moment for the "bishop" who led the team to understand the danger of the situation. Almost half of his combat power is a vampire.

The "Bishop" lich slammed the wall with his withered hand so quickly that the parapet of the mansion was immediately raised three times higher, casting a long shadow on the inside of the courtyard. The undead immediately shrank their lines into the shadows, waiting for orders to retreat.

"Fire, don't let them escape!"

"Balus" gave the order in her sexy voice - this moment, she had been waiting for a long time. After being chased and beaten for a long time, she finally waited for the time to fight back.

The soldiers of the garrison all gathered and took up arms. Countless bottles of holy water glowed white, mixed with shells from three-pounder cannons, and shot into the corner. Holy water is used to corrode flesh, and cannonballs are used to break bones. Each cannonball was pre-coated with silver and engraved with a sacred prayer.

"Ridiculous! With this kind of false prayer, he also wants to overtake us?!...... Force Wall!" The Bishop suddenly shouted angrily, stood up, and with a swipe of his hand in front of him, an illusory wall suddenly appeared.

"Oh, I don't see how you used to be a decent Orthodox priest. How did you end up being a lich?" Barus sneered, "High elevation throw!"

With her command, the elevation angle of the catapult that had been prepared long ago was raised, and the guards used the elastic force to catapult the holy water bottle into the air above the shadowed area. The blue-haired woman stretched out her ten fingers, concentrating the light blue magic bullets on her fingertips, and accurately blasted the holy water bottles that were thrown into fixed positions one by one.

"That's none of your business!" the lich slapped his right hand on the wall, and the high wall turned into a pergola, blocking the falling holy water. However, the "knights" around him were still hurt a lot. Annoyed, he stretched out his left hand, and a ray shot out of his fingertips, bypassing the force field and hitting one of the guards. The guard screamed, and many blood-filled veins grew out of his body, entangling the people around him, making them unable to move.

"Cut them off!" Balus was startled at the sight of this blood-exorcism magic.

"Boom!" the bishop said coldly, triggering the spell. The man who was hit by the ray immediately turned red, and large and small blood bubbles flowed outward along those blood vessels, which could turn into deadly blood bullets at any time!

At that moment, a red meteor sword rain streaked across the sky.

Countless small red swords pierced into the man's body like a torrential rain, creating a dense web of blood in the ground. The people who had escaped for their lives hurriedly avoided and looked in the direction where the sword rain was coming.

Ressa Helmont was standing at the window, still holding the flying sword as a trophy in her hand: "It turns out that this thing is to be filled with magic by hand...... Anyway, I hope I'm just in time. ”

"Thanks, that's timely. Balus smiled, "Now it's time for us to fight back." Soul Suppression Array, activate!"

"Soul Suppression Array, do you mean something made up by Delan's stupid hat juniors?" As if hearing something very funny, the "Bishop" suddenly burst out laughing, "Do you have time to draw? That magic array that is going to be drenched with holy water, no matter how fast it is, it will take 10 minutes to draw!"

He laughed and fired another blood-repellent ray from his right hand at the soldiers who were maintaining the other artillery.

"Reflection Mode!"

An elven sword that shimmered with green light flicked the blood-red ray away with its spine. The half-elf, who used to be always fishing, stood up, proving that he had not neglected to practice.

"Look at your feet. Balus crossed her hands over her chest and began to pray, activating the Soul Suppression Array.

The "bishop" bowed his head. It was only then that he noticed that all the irrigation channels in this garden were flowing with holy water! These canals had been dug into the shape of a soul-calming magic array!

"Are you kidding......" The confidence on the lich's yellow face finally began to fade. He finally began to understand how long the other party had been calculating them.

"In the name of my faith, dust to dust, dust to dust, dust to earth, and death to the undead. Bonnie's hand drew two concentric circles across her chest. Those holy waters emitted a dazzling white light, enveloping the entire mansion in it.

It was ten minutes before her sister arrived belatedly.

"The battle is over?" asked the blonde girl, removing her invisibility magic and pulling her sister into a corner after landing.

"Sort of, but I didn't expect the other party's leader to be so strong. Seriously, now I think it's a miracle that they were able to annihilate the undead in the Great Wasteland in the 17th century. We may have to move......" replied, still with aqua blue hair, the sister looked at the big hole in the wall and the dust on the ground. "How's going on over there, Annie?"

"Don't call me Annie anymore, call me Res. I'm not going to fool myself anymore. ”

Bonnie looked at her sister for a long time. "I think you're more mature than before, sister. ”

"Maturity? No, I just encountered reality. Rose shook her head lonely, "Let me sleep for a while, and I'll talk about the rest tomorrow." ”

*** ***

Radetz Govar, who had led the 10th Division into the Ring Fort, heard the report and stopped.

"There are so many strange things to do tonight. Hopefully Lemda and they'll be okay. ”

He counted the troops, and there were about five thousand men.

Clad López, who led the 3rd Independent Artillery Regiment in a semi-circular defensive formation in the 1st North District, sensed something. He touched the shattered dreams that trembled and muttered to himself.

"You can actually sense a flying sword in the West...... Forget it, there's no time to meddle right now. ”

He counted the troops, and there were about 1,200 men. But he had artillery, the other side did not.

All the distractions are finally gone, and the famous generals of the past and the famous generals of the future are finally going to fight here.

It was a decisive battle between firepower and quantity, technology and tradition. The storm is finally coming to an end.
