Salute To The General

Deep within Hellfire Canyon, a fierce confrontation raged between humans and vampires. The clash between Leopold and Parkhurst had reached its climax. With a sneer, Parkhurst taunted, "Today, the so-called human War God will witness the true power of Earth's mightiest creature and learn who the true dominator is." As his words hung in the air, he tightly gripped a dagger as thin as a cicada's wing and swiftly launched it toward Leopold. Leopold responded with a low growl, swiftly brandishing his sword and bracing himself for the

The clash of Parkhurst's dagger against Leopold's sword produced a crisp, resonating sound. Parkhurst's movements were as elusive as a ghost, transforming into several shadows in an instant. Each shadow possessed substance, resembling multiple mirror clones. They encircled Leopold, launching a frenzied onslaught.

fight. Clang!

Caught off guard, Leopold was taken aback. Swirling his sword, he unleashed waves of sword aura. However, he couldn't fully withstand the relentless assault from Parkhurst's Mirror Clones. Bzzt!

Two more wounds appeared on his chest and left arm, instantly drenching him in blood. Parkhurst's cold laughter echoed in his ears, "Hehe, we vampires are always true to our word. When I said I would tear you apart with a thousand cuts, I meant every word."

A gash appeared on Leopold's back. Bzzt! Bzzt!

As he spoke, Parkhurst's several mirrored clones intensified their attacks. Despite Leopold's desperate resistance, he stood alone and couldn't defend against Parkhurst's Mirror Clone simultaneously. The wounds on his body continued to multiply, and before long, he was soaked in his own blood. Summoning all his strength, Leopold mustered a powerful horizontal slash.

In an instant, his sword cleaved through the air, leaving behind a white streak of sword aura, sweeping toward Parkhurst's several mirror clones. Sensing the impending danger, the mirror clones swiftly retreated and merged back into Parkhurst's true form. Parkhurst managed to evade the white streak of sword aura from Leopold, but the surrounding vampires were not as fortunate.

Dozens of vampire warriors in their vicinity were struck by the sword aura, severed at the waist, and fell lifeless one after another. Leopold finally found a moment to catch his breath. Leaning on his sword, he gasped for air, as blood mixed with sweat steadily dripped onto the ground. Meanwhile, the Infernal Warriors, unable to endure any longer, found themselves in a dire situation. noveldrama

Trapped in a pincer attack, they were being slaughtered and thrown into disarray. They fell to the ground, their screams of agony filling the air. A glimmer of despair flickered in Leopold's eyes. In truth, before he had ventured into Hellfire Canyon, a messenger sent by Nathan had arrived, delivering the order for him to halt his advance and rendezvous with the main force of the army.

However, it was a pity that at that time, his relentless pursuit of victory had clouded his judgment. He had become fixated on traversing Hellfire Canyon and heading straight for Kushburn, driven by a yearning to prove himself in a legendary battle.

However, it was this very obsession that led him and his Infernal

Warriors into the treacherous trap of

Hellfire Canyon, facing the imminent threat of annihilation.

Regret came too late for Leopold. He wasn't afraid of death himself, but he felt guilty for dragging thirty thousand of his brothers to their graves alongside him. He couldn't help but lamented, "I regret not obeying Commander Cross' orders!"

Parkhurst gazed at the blood-soaked Leopold, resembling a matador contemplating a bull that had been impaled countless times by his sword and teetering on the brink of death. "Hehe, you should regret not surrendering when I persuaded you to. If there's a next life, remember not to cross paths with vampires."

With those words, he raised the

dagger in his hand, and his figure vanished into thin air. In the next moment, he reappeared before Leopold, the dagger transforming into a cold gleam aimed directly at his throat. Helplessly, Leopold watched as the dagger approached steadily, growing larger with each passing second. He wanted to dodge, but found himself powerless to do so. Instinctively, he closed his eyes, waiting for death.
