Linda once said that if there were corpses of Great Knights, remember to leave them for Zhuo Ya.

Necromancy research requires these corpses as materials.

"I will report the specifics to Lord Luo De," Lusen added.

"Yes, Lord Lusen."

The Frost Iron Guard responded respectfully, turned, and waved, starting to get busy with their companions.

...

...

The next day.

The news of the Moon Wolf Count and all his heirs being killed completely spread throughout Moon Wolf City.

Chaos began to spread like a plague.

The Count’s nephew and several illegitimate children stepped forward one after another.

They competed to prove to everyone that they had the qualification and ability to inherit the title of Count.

But the problem was that none of these people had much foundation in Moon Wolf City.

The stewards and Knights couldn’t make a choice quickly.

Whether considering their own interests or the current situation, they didn’t know which side to support.

Coupled with the Giant Dragon’s attack on the castle the night before, the entire Moon Wolf City was filled with panic.

The silhouette of the Giant Dragon, its terrifying dragon breath, became the nightmare in the hearts of the citizens.

Everyone was afraid that Moon Wolf City would be breached.

They were even more afraid of the soldiers’ pillage once the city was broken.

— This is the norm in this world, the way soldiers treat their enemies is no kinder than robbers.

Especially after encountering fierce resistance, soldiers would be even more brutal.

Now the citizens are scrambling to find a way out of the city, hoping to escape the city soon engulfed in war.

And on the walls, soldiers who lost their commander were similarly overcome with fear.

Even powerful Lords were killed, what could an ordinary soldier like oneself count for?

Even those battle-hardened veterans had lost their fighting spirit at this moment.

The entire city was like a ship without a captain, swaying in the storm.

"Thud, thud, thud—"

Just as panic enveloped the entire Moon Wolf City, heavy footsteps came from the plains outside the city.

Initially faint, they soon grew clearer.

The soldiers on the walls exchanged looks, mustering courage to peer outside the city.

Everyone froze in place.

On the horizon, silver specks started appearing, continuously advancing towards Moon Wolf City.

Soon, the specks merged into a silver tide, spreading towards Moon Wolf City.

"Oh my god... that’s an army clad in full heavy armor."

A soldier murmured, his voice filled with incredible fear.

As the soldier said, this silver tide was indeed Luo De’s fully armored army.

They formed neat phalanxes, their steps synchronized, their footsteps converging as even the Earth began to tremble.

The war hadn’t started yet, but merely this blinding silver light and murderous air already suffocated people with hopelessness.

The soldiers on the walls watched this scene, their legs began trembling involuntarily.

"Clang."

Someone even directly dropped their weapon and turned to run back into the city.

"Quick, quick ring the bell!"

A veteran finally reacted, his voice shrill with fear.

The other soldiers suddenly awoke from a dream, started shouting frantically,

"The enemy is attacking!"

"Ring the bell! Ring the bell!"

The urgent bell rang throughout the city.

That was an alarm, and also a cry of despair.

"Bang!"

At this moment, a massive impact sound suddenly rang out.

The entire wall shook violently.

"Bang!"

The second impact followed closely.

The stones on the wall began to tremble, dust falling continuously.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

The entire wall began to moan.
