Meanwhile, at Mount Eoncrest, hundreds of thousands of the Curia's Holy Army troops had all gathered there.
However, before they could venture into Mount Eoncrest to search for Nathan, the massive vampire army arrived unexpectedly.
This time, the vampires turned out in force to save Nathan.
Hundreds of thousands of the vampires' main force, along with nearly a million bondslaves, appeared in the region under the command of Hepburn. Their sudden emergence terrified the local residents, who fled overnight.
Upon learning of the situation, Eugene IV hurriedly came in person to take control. He led the Curia army in a standoff against the vampire army.
Upon learning that all the vampires had emerged, Morgon was also greatly surprised.
Immediately, he roughly understood the intentions of the vampires.
Hepburn harbored unrequited love toward Nathan. The real reason she agreed to lead the vampires was for Nathan.
Now that Nathan was in danger, it was only natural that she would command all the vampires to rescue Nathan.
As for Shadowbeard and the other primordial vampires, they probably saw Nathan's extraordinary combat power and valued Nathan's vampire identity. Therefore, they didn't want Nathan to die either and also wanted to save him.
Morgon chuckled coldly. “Ha! Shadowbeard and his crew fancy themselves as saviors of Nathan, attempting to join forces with him to challenge us, the Gods? He's made a good plan, but unfortunately, I won't give him the chance.”
Eugene IV, who was standing nearby, heard Morgon's words and quickly stepped forward, asking respectfully, “Elder Morgon, the vampires are coming in full force. What should we do?”
Morgon chuckled. “Their timing couldn't be better. Announce to the world now that the vampires' determination to kill Nathan is unyielding, and now they've come out in full force, intending to put Nathan to death. In addition, summon the Earth Alliance to join forces with us in suppressing the vampires.”
Eugene IV's eyes lit up after he heard that, and he quickly responded, “Understood!”
Morgon lowered his voice again and instructed, “Pay attention. The pursuit of Nathan cannot be delayed. Send more of your skilled experts to Mount Eoncrest to search for Nathan. I need to see her whether he's dead or alive.”
Eugene IV said, “Understood!”
Morgon waved his hand. “Run along now.”
Afterward, Eugene IV left.
