Final Boss

Chapter 209: The Eve of Needham Plain’s Decisive War (Part 1)

Editor: Entelechy

Under Princess Natalie’s command, Steinbeck Fief’s army amassed its troops and attacked Saka Fortress. This time, the situation had reversed. After Clyde had left, Undead Shaman Princess Annie had replaced his position and continued to summon a large number of junior skeleton magicians.

Over 5,000 skeleton magicians simultaneously launched an attack on Saka Fortress. All kinds of fireballs and ice balls struck Saka Fortress’s enclosing walls. Explosions resounded one after another. Among the numerous attack magics, some higher-leveled magic attacks were mixed, so the defending troops couldn’t tell how many senior magicians the other side had. Those high-level magic spells were launched by Miss Vignia, Princess Halisi, and the other beautiful magicians in the midst of the skeleton magicians, making it very difficult for the other side to determine their exact coordinates.

Princess Tereni, who had formerly provided assistance to Saka Fortress and maintained the forbidden magic barrier, defected just before Steinbeck Fief’s army attacked. Her substitute magic puppet slipped away, and the indestructible magic isolation barrier collapsed by itself. After losing this defensive barrier, the defending troops fell into an extremely passive state, and a large number of fortifications were quickly destroyed by the long-range attacks of the magician army. Many arrow towers were blown up as flames covered the sky. Dense smoke could be seen everywhere in the Needham Plains.

To make matters worse, news that the treasury had been emptied by a thief group spread like wildfire. As a result, their originally unstable morale grew even more chaotic. Many war mercenaries realized that there was no reward for fighting and that they might lose their lives in vain, so they directly deserted all over Saka Fortress’s walls. The fleeing mercenaries broke away from the defensive lines and fled north.

The war mercenaries had no supervising teams, so without money, morale would quickly collapse. When Mercenary King Gruz realized that the situation was helpless, he no longer thought of taking revenge on Clyde, also fleeing in sore straits. In their brief battle, the other party had sent him flying with a flick, which was even more terrifying than that mysterious female knight from before. Gruz knew that he couldn’t defeat him, so he decisively fled.

After the defending troops’ collapse, Sacred Moon Dragon Knight Princess Verly personally led the knights in a charge. She used the Dragon Knight’s special battle qi to break open Saka Fortress’s thick and heavy city gates, allowing a large number of Steinbeck Fief’s troops to swarm in. The war mercenaries were in no mood to continue fighting, and they abandoned the fortress, which Steinbeck’s Fief intentionally allowed. Therefore, none among the war mercenaries fought until the end and withdrew after recognizing the terrible situation.

More than 50,000 war mercenaries stationed in Saka Fortress were completely routed. After just a few days, they submissively surrendered Saka Fortress to just 20,000 troops. In this war, the losses of both sides had not been big since there had been no fight to the death. Steinbeck Fief had suffered about 1,000 casualties, but most of them weren’t severe and could be saved. In fact, only several hundred people had been killed in battle while the losses of the defending side were comparatively higher at over 3,000 casualties, with many burning to death in the fortifications due to the magic attacks. Not many died in the hands of the enemy.

At the backdoor of Saka Fortress, the beautiful thief group met with their other fellows and transferred the gold coins they had looted from the treasury. Their complexions were bright red, and they often turned their heads to look at Clyde who was standing nearby. Although they were now wearing clothes, they still vividly remembered that man seeing them bare. In addition, when Clyde had given them clothes, he had enjoyed the scene of them changing. In front of this devil, these beautiful thieves had no secrets at all.

“Lord Devil, if you need any help in the future, feel free to instruct us!”

“There’s nothing for the time being. You all... if you all can, help me find information about the whereabouts of Nightingale and Night Rose. You all are of the same profession, so it shouldn’t be a problem.”

“Understood, Lord Devil! We will do our best.”

The members of the beautiful thief group bade farewell to him, but they couldn’t escape this devil’s palm. Clyde had secretly left a devil mark on these beautiful thieves’ bodies, so he would always know their whereabouts. Meanwhile, these beautiful thieves planned to take these gold coins back to their hometown to help those in need. Many thieves were forced to steal because of the pressures of life.

After sending away these beautiful thieves, Clyde returned to Mercenary King Gruz’s residence. Gruz and his over 10,000 mercenaries had already withdrawn while the remaining over 40,000 temporarily hired war mercenaries were also fleeing. Clyde felt that his subordinates might have been too ruthless. No one asked who Gruz’s financial backer was and directly beat away the other party.

Augusta Wagner Empire’s Princess Tereni wasn’t the real behind-the-scenes financial backer. Their magic empire had long wanted to intervene in the affairs of the interior nations of Ximengsi Continent. However, the four frontier super empires mutually guarded against each other, so the bigger empires were temporarily left alone. The other party had intervened in the internal wars of the small Adrian Empire in passing. Since magicians regarded new magic technique styles highly, Clyde had used Moon God Clan’s elementary magic spells to successfully reach a secret deal with Princess Tereni and make her give up their plans to intervene in Needham Plains’ war.

“Big Brother Clyde, they have already confessed. No one knows who the behind-the-scenes financial backer of Mercenary King Gruz is. That fellow Gruz was quite cautious.”

“Sister Lucifer, your investigations are truly fast. Did... did you do anything strange?”

“No, absolutely not! We are all girls, so what strange things can I do!”

The residence of Mercenary King Gruz had turned into the temporary commander’s residence of Steinbeck Fief’s army. All the old guards had been replaced with Clyde’s soldiers. In the bedroom, Clyde found a wicked scene. Torn clothes lay scattered on the floor while his younger sister Lucifer interrogated those few beautiful bodyguards who had accompanied Gruz. After Gruz had fled, these beautiful bodyguards had been suppressed by Clyde.

When Clyde saw these beautiful bodyguards once more, they had turned into stripped, white lambs. Their revealing dresses and undergarments had been directly torn to shreds by Lucifer and scattered on the floor. All of them knelt side by side on the bed. Their hands and legs were bound behind their backs with red ropes. Lucifer must have secretly learned Clyde’s techniques at some point. A tortoise-shell binding method around those white buns made them stand firm.

These white lambs’ complexions were bright red while a black rod forced saliva to flow from the corners of their mouths. Lucifer must have fed them a “mysterious thing” according to their alluring expressions. In addition, strange fluids from their flower gardens dripped down their clamped white legs, wetting the bedsheets below them.

The most wicked thing was that their peaks seemed to have gotten a lot bigger since Clyde clearly remembered that their cup sizes had not been this big initially. If not for the red ropes wrapped around them, he guessed that a drooping scene would have appeared. From their alluring pairs of redbuds, a milky fluid flowed, increasing the temptation to commit a crime.

Facing Clyde’s question, Lucifer unintentionally showed a devilish smile while denying that she had done anything strange. Clyde looked behind Lucifer and found a potion bottle on the table with most of its white powder missing while traces remained on the table. This was the typical thief claiming, “300 silver taels are not hidden here.”. This bloodkin Lolita hadn’t even bothered to clean the crime scene and destroy the evidence.

“Big Brother Clyde, Big Sister Saras and the others are in the meeting room at the northernmost end. It seems they are discussing something important.”

“Then, I’ll go to see what it’s about. Sister Lucifer, these maids...”

“Big Brother Clyde, rest assured! I’ll control the intensity and not be too rough!”

Clyde and Lucifer, these “gentleman and gentlelady” siblings, exchanged glances with evil smiles as if they had reached a tacit agreement. Clyde turned around and left, locking the door behind. The white lambs trembled either in fear or excitement, or perhaps both.

Lucifer walked forward, revealing a fangs at the corners of her mouth. She then directly buried them into the soft bosom of the nearest white lamb, greedily sucking delicious white nectar from this meat bun. The white lamb violently trembled and almost fainted in fear.

“It’s truly delicious! Big Sister, there’s no need to fear. I’m different from those male Bloodkin who can’t restrain themselves after starting and suck the other party dry. I know when to stop.”

After ** that meat bun, Lucifer moved closer to her prey and gently licked across her white skin a few times before taking a symbolic taste. Her taste was actually quite picky, so she hunted based on the attractiveness index of her prey. After leaving a small wound on this white lamb, she took a step back and snapped her fingers. Then, a group of bewitching, well-proportioned Bloodkin beauties walked in; they were existences above the level of a prince.

“Your Majesty the Queen, are there any instructions for us?”

“It’s not a big matter. I’m giving you all a little reward. Start the blood feast, but take note! Don’t suck these lambs dry!”

“Many thanks for your bestowed gifts. Your Majesty the Queen, we will carry it out.”

The war trophies were filled with terror. Soon, they were surrounded and shared by many senior Bloodkin. Their **, thighs, neck, and even arms were bitten as they were reduced to sacrificial offerings for the blood feast. The blood feast enjoyed by male and female Bloodkin were different. Females were c a bit gentler as they would rear their prey for a long time while males tended to get careless and directly suck their prey into dried corpses.
