Chapter 1311 - 526: The Overlord Descends (Part 2)

"The sun and moon bear witness, and years can attest! As envoys of light, we vow to protect the dignity of the Holy See with our lives!"

"We absolutely cannot allow that demon to dominate the world!"

"Right! We must do our utmost to stop Zhang Beixing’s rampage!"

The two Archangels responded in unison, full of fighting spirit.

For the glory of light, they wouldn’t hesitate to sacrifice anything.

...

The news swiftly spread throughout the Light Faction.

Countless followers were shocked and abuzz with discussion.

"That Zhang Beixing truly is a great demon! Even the Son of the Demon God was subdued by him..."

"I’ve heard he also acquired the ’Soul Devourer’, so arrogant... I’m afraid our Holy See is facing grave danger..."

"Stop with the defeatist talk! The Archbishop is wise and mighty, surely he can fend off the enemy at the gates!"

Panic spread, casting a gloomy cloud.

Amid the fear and worry, there was trust in the Archbishop.

They firmly believed, under the leadership of this esteemed leader, they could overcome the crisis and see the dawn.

As the Holy See of Light was in full readiness.

A terrifying message quietly arrived.

"To report, my lord, the scou... scouts have reported..."

A servant approached the grand hall trembling, his legs weak.

"The demon Zhang Beixing’s army is already at the doorstep! Thousands of troops clad in black armor stand outside the Imperial City..."

"What?! How could his movements be so swift!"

Victoria sprang up, her face changing dramatically.

An unprecedented panic arose from within.

"No time to think! Send the order, the entire army, attack, follow me to meet the enemy!"

"I want to see how long that fool dares to be arrogant before the Archbishop!"

With that said, the elder donned his armor, leading his loyal followers, boldly charging out of the Holy See.

Meanwhile, outside the Imperial City.

Zhang Beixing sat on his black warhorse, gazing into the distance with his arms crossed.

Everywhere his eyes looked, it was filled with his iron cavalry soldiers.

The black armor shone brilliantly under the sun, exuding murderous intent.

Even the horizon seemed to fade away.

"Master, everything is ready. Just waiting for your command."

Richard urged his horse beside Zhang Beixing, reporting respectfully.

His words carrying an eager battle intent.

"Very well."

Zhang Beixing’s lips curled into a slight smile, full of confidence.

The next moment, he waved his hand.

"Send the order, the entire army assault! I want to breach the Holy See, eradicate them completely!"

"Whoever dares obstruct my path, kill without mercy!"

As his words landed, the atmosphere was imposing.

In an instant, drums thundered, and horses neighed.

The dark army surged like tides towards the Holy See.

Wherever they passed, dust clouded the sky, blocking out the sun and moon.

Unstoppable!

Meanwhile, on the side of the Holy See.

"His Excellency the Bishop, the Dark Legion is brimming with murder, and their numbers seem to far exceed ours..."

A young knight approached Victoria cautiously, his tone worried.

"Afraid of what! Large numbers don’t equate to skill!"

The elder snorted coldly, standing proudly.

Surrounded by holy light, exuding an unmatched aura.

"These mere demons and monsters dare to wreak havoc in my Holy See? Truly ignorant!"

"Remember this, today’s battle concerns the dignity of our Holy See of Light!"

"Whoever dares to retreat, I’ll ensure they have no place to be buried!"

Victoria raised the scepter high, her gaze piercing.

Swearing to annihilate the invading enemy forces as revenge for past humiliations.

"Yes, Sir!"

Tens of thousands of soldiers responded in unison, full of fighting spirit.

An earth-shattering battle was about to erupt.

Dust rose in the battlefield sky.

Shouts of battle and neighs of horses rang out continuously.

In front of the two armies, Zhang Beixing and Victoria faced each other from afar.

Tension built up, murderous intent filled the air.

"Victoria, you old thing, today let me send you on your way!"

Zhang Beixing sneered, his eyes contemptuous.

In his view, this elder was nothing but an exhausted force, not worth mentioning.

"Don’t be so smug! I want to see how long a junior like you can remain arrogant!"

Victoria was enraged, raising the scepter high.

In an instant, waves of holy light roared like thunder.

Directly aiming at Zhang Beixing’s face, incisive and fierce.

"Is this trick all you’ve got? Think you can harm me?"

Zhang Beixing mocked, not even bothering to dodge.

He reached out with his right hand, casually waving.

Buzz—

An even more formidable force suddenly burst forth.

All the holy light was completely extinguished.

Even Victoria’s magic wand was sent flying.

"This... how is this possible..."

The Archbishop was speechless, his face pale.

A mere junior was actually able to, with his own strength, break through his full-force strike?

It’s simply inconceivable!

"I told you, you’re no match for me."

Zhang Beixing spoke coldly, his gaze contemptuous.

The next second, he extended his right hand, slicing the air.

In an instant, chains of a purplish black color appeared out of thin air.

In a flash, they tightly bound the old man!

"Outrageous! Zhang Beixing, how dare you!"

Victoria struggled in pain, on the brink of despair.

He never dreamed that he, the mighty leader of the Holy See, would end up in such a predicament!

"Today, I will carry out the heavenly justice and rid you, this long-standing nemesis!"

Zhang Beixing coldly laughed, flipping his wrist.

Crack!

The sound of bones cracking suddenly rang out, making one’s teeth ache.

The Archbishop let out a miserable scream, his legs breaking with a sound.

Blood spurted out from the fracture.

"Stop... spare me..."

Victoria’s voice became incredibly weak, like a lamb awaiting slaughter.

He trembled as he crawled on the ground, repeatedly begging for mercy.

Tears blurred that aged face.

"Zhang Beixing, I... I am willing to submit to you..."

"As long as you spare my life, I’m willing to do anything..."

The Archbishop cast aside his dignity, crying aloud.

This once high and mighty Saint had now fallen to such depths.

"Oh, now you know how to beg for mercy?"

"When you lorded over the Holy See, did you ever think of today?"

"Since you’re stubborn and unrepentant, don’t blame me for being ruthless."

Before the voice fell, he stretched out his right hand.

Five fingers like hooks, they suddenly clutched Victoria’s throat.

A piercing scream echoed across the battlefield.

The Archbishop’s eyes bulged, his face twisted with agony.

His throat was forcefully snapped, ending any further sounds.

Blood dripped from between his fingers.

It splattered onto the ground, forming a pool of crimson.

"Master, what remarkable skill! A delight to the heart!"

Richard and Alina cheered on the side, unable to contain their excitement.

The soldiers of the Holy See were terrified out of their wits.

They dropped their weapons and kneeled, begging for mercy.

"No... don’t kill me..."

"I’m willing to submit to the Dark Empire, never to rebel again..."

The desire to live made these people discard all dignity.

Zhang Beixing surveyed his surroundings, a cruel smile playing on his lips.

"Since that’s the case, I’ll give you all an opportunity."

"From now on, you are slaves of the Dark Empire."

"Should you dare to harbor any disobedience, I will make you wish you were dead!"

His voice thundered like a storm.

It made everyone tremble in fear.

In this moment, the Holy See fully submitted.

It became a true vassal of the Dark Empire.

And that vigorous young man had also achieved the unification of the Three Realms.

He became the true master of this world!

[Congratulations, Host, you have taken another big step towards the final goal!]

The Persuasion System’s voice sounded once again in his mind.

[The complete submission of the Holy See signifies that you already have absolute control over this world.]

[With the previous submission of the Demon Race and Vampire clan, your power map is now unprecedented.]

"That’s right, this is only the beginning."

Zhang Beixing was full of pride and ambition.

"I will establish an unprecedented grand empire, dominate the world, unify all lands!"

"Anyone who disagrees, I will make them never rise again!"

His words were forceful and resolute, carrying immense weight.

His eyes exuded a domineering aura that seemed to overlook the world.

As if he already saw countless subjects kneeling before him.

"Master, your great achievements will be recorded in history, celebrated for ages!"

Alina slightly opened her red lips, her eyes full of worship.

The awe for this man had reached an entirely new level.

Even the Vampire clan had to bow down in submission.

"Indeed, with you, Master, what do we have to worry about?"

Richard clenched his fists, filled with fighting spirit.

"The Dark Empire is destined to be invincible and victorious in every battle!"

"Everyone, no need to say more."

Zhang Beixing stood with hands clasped behind his back, enigmatic.

"Next, I will visit the territory of the Vampires."

"Have a good rest and prepare for the next phase of the campaign."

With that, he strode forward, starting the journey back.
