99 blood promotion
After calming down for a while, Jiang Xiaotan returned to the Blood Rose Warrior and said in a calm tone:
"Please forgive me for my gaffe. Let's move on and rescue Abel."
The Blood Rose warriors were silent for a moment, and immediately responded in unison: "As you command!"
They began to rush towards Zhuye Castle again. On the way, they also found sporadic Bloodfang troops resisting the red-robed blood clan. After learning their identities, these Bloodfang warriors voluntarily joined them.
"As long as we fuck those bastards wearing crimson clothes, we're on the same page!"
Most of these Bloodfang warriors were scarred. They also told Jiang Xiaotan and others that nearly two-thirds of the Bloodfang troops had participated in the rebellion. Although the wild vampires in the city accounted for the majority in number, the rebels
The main force is still the defected Bloodfang troops.
Moreover, the rebels also divided the leadership of the Bloodfang Force and paralyzed the command system of the Bloodfang Force. As a result, the remaining one-third of the Bloodfang soldiers who had not defected were divided into countless small isolated teams.
It was besieged by the red-robed vampires.
In the upper city area close to Zhuye Castle, a small group of Bloodtooth warriors joined Jiang Xiaotan and others with new news:
"Legion Commander, bah, that bastard former legion commander Grodd has surrendered to the enemy. Now the person leading the Bloodfang Guards to resist in the castle is Lady Grace, who was promoted to the Guards Commander during the battle."
"Gruder rebelled?!" Margaret felt a little unbelievable, "Who is that Grace?"
"It's a young officer who was summoned by Her Majesty the Queen a few days ago. I heard that he was promoted to the rank of Captain of Her Majesty's Personal Guard the next day." Theodora said.
"However, it may also be the promotion of Lord Grace that led to the betrayal of Lord Grodd...that bastard."
"Why?"
"Recently, there have been rumors within the legion that Her Majesty the Queen has lost trust in generals over two hundred years old and wants to promote a large number of young generals. It just so happened that when the rumors were spreading most fiercely, Her Majesty the Queen promoted Lady Grace
Already."
Originally, Grodd and others did not appear on Theodora's scroll. When Theodora left the Zhuye Empire, these people were still "loyal".
But to Theodora's surprise, not long after she left, the situation began to take a turn for the worse, and some seemingly loyal vampires within the empire also defected to the traitor's camp.
After understanding the situation of the Blood Fang Legion, Jiang Xiaotan led Blood Rose to Zhu Ye Castle without stopping.
Ironically, the originally impregnable castle gate was destroyed by the cannon he gave to Abel. It seems that those cannons fell into the hands of the rebels after the Bloodfang Legion defected.
This was not the most unexpected thing for Jiang Xiaotan. The situation inside Zhuye Castle was incredible.
The Bloody Fang troops who did not defect were on the offensive side in the city, while the rebels had completely occupied the main building of the castle and were resisting the Bloody Fang troops' attack.
Grace, who had just been promoted to the commander of the Guards, was already wounded. Half of her face was wrapped in a bandage, with only one eye exposed. She was currently supervising the battle at the rear of the team.
Since she is a pure-blooded vampire who is younger than Lei Lei, she does not know the Second True Ancestor, so she is strongly wary of reinforcements from the Blood Rose Legion.
It wasn't until several Blood Fang warriors rescued by Blood Rose came forward to testify, and Jiang Xiaotan showed them the True Ancestor's unique Blood Emperor form, that Grace let down her guard.
"Lord Kain, please forgive me for my gaffe."
Grace half-knelt down to apologize to Jiang Xiaotan despite her injuries, but Jiang Xiaotan immediately supported her.
"Don't blame yourself. I need to grasp the situation immediately. Where is Abel?"
"Her Majesty the Queen is still fighting the rebels in the city." Grace said.
She immediately explained to Jiang Xiaotan the situation when the rebellion occurred.
About a day ago, news spread outside the city that a small number of rebels were rebelling. Grodd transferred Grace and her men outside the city to suppress the rebellion, and replaced all the guards in Zhuye Castle with those who had defected to the rebels.
Military people.
After Grace arrived at the location where the news was spread, she fell into an ambush by a large number of red-robed rebels. Fortunately, she was brave and good at fighting and quickly led her troops to break out.
On the way back to Zhuye Castle, the rebellion broke out completely. Just as Lilith said before, Zhuye Castle was completely destroyed from within.
Grace gathered some of the Bloodfang warriors who had not defected and began to attack the city. They relied on cannons to blast open the city gate, entered the castle, and started a battle with the defending rebels.
According to the confessions of some rebel prisoners, Abel and a small number of personal guards were still guarding the upper floors of the castle, resisting the rebel attack.
"The opponents guarding the gate are all high-level vampires with a title of count or above. Although our warriors are brave, they are still no match for them in terms of hard power." Grace said with some frustration.
She herself could barely reach the count level, and the soldiers under her command were only at the baron level, so they were seriously injured in the battle.
"It doesn't matter what the title is, does it? We have Lord Kain here, as long as Lord Kain... Ouch!" Theodora interjected, but she was immediately stepped on by Margaret.
.
"Discourteous! You don't rely on your own efforts to face the enemy, but you try to borrow Lord Kain's power..." Margaret scolded.
Theodora knew she was in the wrong and immediately kept her mouth shut, but she had secretly remembered the hatred of this kick in her heart.
But Jiang Xiaotan quickly understood what Theodora meant.
"My power? Blood infusion?"
"Just pretend that I didn't say anything. It's really shameless for a family member to be shy and ask for infusion from the master." Theodora said.
"It doesn't matter, this kind of infusion is harmless to you, right?"
"As for the harm, at most it is that one day you suddenly want to take back our power, some of our original abilities will also decline, just like a hundred years ago." Theodora said.
Due to the severance of bloodline a hundred years ago, Theodora and Margaret lost two knighthoods. However, in fact, even without the bonus of bloodline power, their original strength was enough to reach the Duke level, but because of
Degraded due to side effects of bloodline bonus.
"Then since there is no big harm, why should I begrudge you this power!"
Jiang Xiaotan tossed his cloak, turned back to face the Blood Rose Legion behind him, mobilized the blood power he had just replenished, and began to brew blood infusion.
When Margaret saw this, she immediately shouted:
"Blood Rose, prepare to accept promotion!"
At the same time, she felt a warm and familiar force enter her body.
That was the long-lost power of the blood of the Second True Ancestor.
