But given Bu Bai's current situation... it doesn't seem suitable for him to continue fighting the Witcher, does it?
Everyone returned to the Ninth Princess's side, and one of the eight-star demon hunter captains there also asked Veroshia to take Bu Bai away.
"In the paths we explored before, we found a direct route to the Noble Alliance and the Second Prince."
There's a group of friendly witchers on that road who haven't arrived yet; they can escort you through here.
"Thank you for your help, Captain Jamie."
The demon hunter captain left expressionlessly with his silver sword. Of course, before leaving, he glanced at the dejected Bu Bai, but could only shake his head as he walked away.
It's not uncommon for witchers to encounter situations where a close relative becomes a vampire.
But the result... at least what he saw were demon hunters who personally killed their closest relatives who had become vampires, and then went to vampire territory to release themselves for a final battle.
Normally, vampires are very afraid of encountering witchers, since humans who can become witchers are a group of people who are not afraid of death.
Because they had briefly participated in the battle to resist the vampire counterattack, and both Liu Lang Xiaodai and others, as well as the royal guards, had achieved considerable success, the demon hunters successfully bluffed, using the royal family's support to create the impression that reinforcements were arriving one after another.
The vampires really did fall victim to it.
They dare not continue their attack now, but instead tighten their defenses to minimize unknown risks.
Therefore, Captain Jamie will agree to send witchers to escort them.
Not long after Veroshia and her group set off, the Blood Dragon King sent back a message, cursing and swearing.
"It's time to hit the road."
The vampire commander, who was implementing a defensive strategy, also received a message from the Blood Dragon King, who had finally found time to send it.
Next, they will enter the Imperial Court in the capital with the other vampires. As for the demon hunters? Let them have fun in the outer city. According to their previous estimates, the power of the void... will arrive soon.
Meanwhile, Liu Lang and his group, unaware that the vampires behind them had begun their retreat, successfully encountered another group of demon hunters. They were supposed to go to support their allies near the Imperial Library, but since it was Captain Jamie's order, they chose to obey. It wasn't far anyway, just a bit of a detour.
However, this turnback also revealed to them a force from the void that was eroding the roads here!
"Are you kidding me? What is this? And what are those things?"
The demon hunters watched as these tumor-like substances appeared outside the abandoned buildings, some of them even growing eyes and staring at them.
The terrifying environment made them frown and draw their weapons. But before they could make a move, they saw a group of noble alliance soldiers and royal soldiers, who had been dead for a long time and were emitting purple light, walking out from the front.
"Another trick played by the vampires?"
"Kill them, complete the escort, and then go see the captain."
It has to be said that the combat skills of these demon hunters are truly high. Liu Lang compared them to the special forces of the Dragon Kingdom, and this is at least the level of a Zone Zero special forces team.
With their help, along with Liu Lang and his men and the Royal Guard's attack, they quickly captured the place.
However, the tumors were still spreading outwards, and the demon hunters sensed something was wrong. After escorting the Ninth Princess, they immediately returned to rejoin the main force and report what had happened.
As for Liu Lang and his group, who had entered the battle zone between the Noble Alliance and the Second Prince, they stared in disbelief at the scattered wreckage of flying boats, the demonized Pegasus, and the demonized soldiers.
The entire region had long since turned into a distorted, eerie purple, and the civilians trapped there had all been transformed into void monsters, though their strength was relatively weaker.
"How could the capital city have become like this?!"
Veroshia stared blankly at everything before her; this was not the capital city she remembered at all!
In my memory, Beijing should have been a scene of enduring prosperity, with lights shining in every home, flowers in full bloom, thriving commerce, and bustling crowds.
How could it have become so desolate and ruined, with crumbling walls and wrecked flying ships and mutated monsters everywhere...?
Where are my eldest and second eldest brothers?
Where is Third Sister? Where is the Prime Minister? Where are all the officials and generals in the court?
Why didn't they step in and stop all of this?
Why? Why is this happening?
While Verosia was watching all this in a daze, her guards were fighting against the void-like monsters around her, and Liu Lang, who had returned after killing a bunch of monsters, had found a place with relatively high terrain and a good view.
"Mark! Take the Royal Guard and move in our direction!"
"Leave it to me."
Mark led the Royal Guard to escort the Ninth Princess to a floating magic tower.
The corrupted mages here were all killed by Liu Lang, Xiao Dai, and Verania.
Now they need to replan their route because, according to the original plan, the road closest to the Crown Prince's residence is full of these demonized soldiers and celestial horses, and there are also wrecked flying ships everywhere nearby. They need to find a way to get past them.
Otherwise, should they just charge in with the current Royal Guard? So far, the Royal Guard has already lost thirty men. The Ninth Princess originally brought three or four hundred men, and this is a tenth loss.
"Is the Noble Alliance in the sky still fighting against Second Brother's Sky Knights?"
"Couldn't they see the bizarre scene unfolding below?!"
