"I understand. Now, summon all the vampires. We will duel." Emi was momentarily taken aback. "Duel?" "Of course. Our vampires will duel the Cyclops Lord. Any questions?" Emi nodded in sudden realization, as if it were the most natural thing in the world. "Of course not, Lord Progenitor. Should we summon all the vampires of Dawn City to duel them as well?" Li De gave Emi a deep look, his expression filled with mixed emotions. "Indeed, you truly understand me. Let’s skip this idea for now—perhaps next time." In fact, without Li De summoning them, the vampires had already rushed to the scene at incredible speed upon hearing the commotion. When the sky was covered by the silhouettes of Whispering Bats, and over a hundred vampires appeared around the area, the Cyclops Lord sensed something amiss. He abruptly raised his head and roared furiously at the vampires circling in the sky. "Foul vampires, do you dare declare war on the great Thunder Tribe?!!" The roar echoed in the Ancient Giant Language. Even under the overwhelming presence of the vampires, the enraged Cyclops Lord showed no signs of backing down; his face was filled with fury. Kosso Thunder Title: Wise One (Intelligence increased by 50%) Age: 289 Level: 15 (Severe Hunger State) Class: Giant Heavy Armor Warrior Ancient Giant Bloodline: Activated—Strength increased by 300%; Skin immune to spells below Tier 3. Description: An outstanding Cyclops Lord, possessing not only immense strength but also remarkable intelligence. After reviewing the Cyclops Lord’s information, Li De raised an eyebrow. A Level 15 Giant Lord with an Ancient Giant bloodline and the title of Wise One—it was no wonder this Cyclops Lord could hold his ground against Emi, the Shadow High Priest, without sustaining any injuries. The opponent’s bloodline talents were indeed formidable. "Kosso Thunder, leader of the Cyclops tribe, I am the Progenitor of the Saintlight Vampires—Kachar. You have invaded the territory of the Saintlight Vampires and harmed our Whispering Bats." "On behalf of the Saintlight Vampires, I declare war on your Cyclops tribe. This battle will not cease until one side submits or is exterminated!" Li De’s voice, amplified by mana, thundered across the sky like rolling thunder. Though the Cyclops Lord didn’t understand the Continental Common Script, the message transmitted directly via mental force left no room for misunderstanding. The Cyclops Lord gazed at the giant bats covering the sky, his rage slowly subsiding. A flicker of caution appeared in his eyes. Possessing intelligence, he understood the difficulty of this fight. He let out a furious roar toward the massive twenty-blade-high cave behind him. Rumble~ Under everyone's watchful gaze, one Cyclops after another emerged from the cave, their heavy footsteps shaking the ground as they faced the vampires. One, two, three... until the twenty-first. The entire Cyclops tribe had gathered. Seven male Cyclops, eight female Cyclops, and six juvenile Cyclops, each three blades tall and not yet fully grown. Among them, five Cyclops had reached an astonishing Level 10, while ten others were Level 9. This was a formidable force. Li De narrowed his eyes slightly. Upon closer inspection, an interesting discovery caught his attention. Aside from the juveniles, every Cyclops bore numerous scars. Though not as grotesque as the scar on Kosso Thunder’s abdomen, these wounds indicated they had endured a fierce battle. This Cyclops tribe must have experienced something to end up in such a state. Most importantly, every Cyclops’s status panel displayed a specific attribute: Extreme Hunger State. This discovery immediately sparked various thoughts in Li De’s mind. Vampires could not transform other humanoid beings into vampires, so the idea of vampire-Cyclops hybrids was impossible. But what about enslaving them? Looking at the Cyclops glaring warily at the vampires in the sky, too afraid to attack but roaring in anger, Li De stroked his chin thoughtfully. The vampires hovered at an altitude of three to four hundred blades. The Cyclops could only throw stones, but the agile vampires easily dodged them. No matter how angry they were, the Cyclops were powerless against the vampires. Li De maintained a posture of pressure without attacking, floating silently in the air. This stance alone placed immense pressure on the Cyclops below. Even disregarding the vampires, the sheer size of the Whispering Bats—with their ten-plus blade wingspans—posed a lethal threat to these large creatures. Their numbers were overwhelming. Two hundred Whispering Bats, even without attacking, simply patrolling, were enough to unsettle the Cyclops. Ten minutes later, several small bats flew out of the cave behind the Cyclops under the cover of night. Flapping their wings, they swiftly reached Li De, who extended his hand to receive them and closed his eyes briefly. Moments later, a cold smile formed at the corner of his lips. The specially trained bats had found no new enemies inside the cave. This meant that what lay before him was all they had. Knowing your enemy was key to victory, and he had waited this long for more than just a spectacle. Now, the racial war could begin. Li De’s tone turned icy. "All vampires, prepare to cast spells. Mount the Whispering Bats and commence dive-bombing." With air superiority, the vampires now held absolute control. Even if the Cyclops on the ground were boss-level threats, a city’s walls could be razed. But it didn’t matter. Without countermeasures, even the strongest Cyclops would kneel before him. "Kosso Thunder. I am the Lord of Dawn City and the leader of the Saintlight Vampires. I will launch an extermination campaign against you. The vampires will kill every member of your Cyclops tribe!" Li De used the lull while the vampires prepared their spells to further pressure the Cyclops Lord with words. Pre-battle declarations might seem foolish, but they could impose significant psychological stress on the weaker side. If facing ordinary Cyclops, he wouldn’t bother with such formalities and would attack directly. But now, this intelligent Cyclops Lord sparked different thoughts in him. These accursed vampires!! Kosso Thunder let out an enraged roar toward the sky. However, facing the overwhelming numbers blotting out the sky, a flicker of unease—imperceptible even to himself—flashed in his eyes. There were too many enemies, too powerful. Unless he could receive support from the Thunder Tribe, he had no confidence in facing such a horde of vampires. But now, he was merely a failed contender for the throne, and the Thunder Tribe was far beyond reach. Fear inevitably crept into his heart. Behind him stood his three wives and six children. Having gained wisdom, he didn’t want to die. But the dignity of a Cyclops Lord prevented him from surrendering before the battle began, especially to a group of accursed vampires!! Kosso Thunder would never surrender!! Cyclops would never serve!! At that moment, over a hundred vampires mounted the giant bats and dove downward. Each vampire held a Tier 2 spell in hand. The dense magical fluctuations caused the sky itself to tremble. The dive-bombing commenced.
