This is the final charge, a desperate gamble. If they can destroy those strange creations that interfere with the true god's power, then they might have a chance to catch their breath. But if they fail... no, there is no failure!
He is Tak Talos! The last Talos!
"I am war!!!"
Shouting the family motto, Tak Talos charged unstoppably to the front lines of the battlefield. His excellent battlefield skills allowed him to choose the best time and place. At this moment, this was the place with the fewest allied strongmen, and they were unable to provide support in the short term. The only ones blocking his way were a few level three bloodline individuals! They were no match for his all-out charge!
As he sped along at high speed, Tak Talos looked down at the canine bloodline user he was about to crush. Though the user was cute, this was a battlefield, and he would show no mercy.
Roar! ! !
The fifteen-meter-long red dragon charged forward at breakneck speed, managing to withstand the blow by using its head to block Tak Talos's heavy chain axe at the last moment. There was no other way; as a repeat offender who had repeatedly caused trouble, he was carrying the lives of his entire family on his shoulders as the bodyguard for these monster girls! If one of them died, one member of his family would die! And he would die first!
Therefore, even if it means risking everything by using dragon breath as a propulsion method and his head as a shield, he must block this attack!
This is the bond between him and his entire family!
Chapter 355: Unstoppable Momentum, the Legacy of the Elves
After receiving the unexpected news, the war intensified, no longer confined to the vicinity of the High Mountain Kingdom. Just as Zhuang Sen had predicted, the Holy Army began a multi-pronged attack, launching assaults on various countries from the air, water, and even underground. Each time they successfully breached a territory, they would forcibly convert ordinary people into Ferro people, creating the boundaries of the Ferro world, and then begin a 24/7 production run to keep up with the demands of the full-scale war.
Similarly, Zhuang Sen's Holy Salvation Alliance was not idle either, and launched an attack on the entire territory of the Holy Kingdom. Warriors like Dantalian, Lilith, and Serafina each led their own armies, with monster girls and gradually forming professional armies, equipped with technological weapons, rune equipment, and highly effective potions put together by logistics personnel such as Nia, Hana, and Zero. While they did not completely crush their opponents, they certainly held the advantage.
Zhuang Sen is essentially a one-man army, and his fighting style is quite simple. If he has the enhanced version of [Realm Descent], he'll first cover the opponent's area, then unleash a wide-area attack to clear the map. If he's already used it, he'll slowly plant monster girl lairs, then eliminate the Ferro people trying to destroy the lairs while waiting for the lairs' effects to completely cover the Ferro world, and then clear the map.
The only thing limiting Zhuang Sen and the monster girls' movement speed is the number of nest anchor points. Whether advancing or holding their ground, they need enough monster girl nests to cover the territory. Even though Zhuang Sen can now retrieve monster girl nests, the total number is still insufficient, since the Holy Church's territory has already been taken over by the Holy Salvation Alliance.
Yes, the Holy Kingdom is currently in retreat—to be honest, Johnson can't think of any reason why they shouldn't be.
In terms of quantity, quality, equipment, morale, and even external advantages, Zhuang Sen's side holds the upper hand. Quantity is self-evident; while Zhuang Sen's monster girls may not outnumber the Fero people, he still has the Fallen Star Kingdom, the Thousand Towers Kingdom, the High Mountain Kingdom, and his own Holy Demon Kingdom, along with their vassal states and city-states. The number he can mobilize far surpasses the Fero people, who still need to undergo a conversion. As for quality, setting aside the fragile nature of the ancient Fero people, even these mechanized, iron-clad creatures are no match for the "natives" who have generally undergone bloodline soldier modifications, professional training, or are even reverted to their ancestral forms as monster girls—they're simply too young to be true.
Morale is another story. Although the war prevented the use of powerful tools like tax cuts and land redistribution, the full pay and brand-new weaponry alone were enough to boost the morale of the feudal army. Furthermore, Zhuang Sen, through the power of the monster girls, ensured fair and just distribution of merit, eliminating the previously common practice of stealing and claiming credit, and guaranteeing the soldiers' promotion path. Finally, with the addition of the measures taken to improve their quality, Zhuang Sen's reputation within the entire Holy Salvation Alliance army is now absolutely at its maximum.
When the Holy King Zhuang Sen arrived, the blue sky appeared.JPG
As for equipment and cheat codes, needless to say. The Ferro people, who originally possessed airplanes, cannons, and even missiles, and could seal their bloodline power, should have been able to easily crush armies armed with melee weapons. However, putting aside the strength of the rune equipment and the counter-effects of the monster girl's lair, just consider the ancient technology that Zero and his robots had developed. Although it certainly couldn't compare to the black technology of the Ferro world, it was still an evolution from melee weapons to firearms, and they were no longer being absolutely crushed.
Especially now, in the world of Ferro—well, mainly because the world of Ferro has focused all its attention on eroding the world of monster girls, instead of continuing to advance its technology—even in the struggle for realms, it has clearly put on a show, focusing on stalling. Its goal isn't to win, but rather to waste more of Zhuang Sen's time.
As for why Zhuang Sen knew this, besides what he experienced firsthand, it was because the Holy City—the capital of the Holy Kingdom—had told him. This ancient city was originally a sacred place with a strong religious atmosphere and an architectural style very much like ancient Greece and the Vatican. But now, it has become a cyberpunk-style Night City. High-rise buildings made of black, hard metal flash with all kinds of neon colors. Amidst the exaggerated and dazzling colors, various turrets and robots fill the streets, and visible missile silos are open and ready to be activated at any time.
The current Holy City resembles a curled-up steel hedgehog, a genuine heavily armored fortress, a dangerous zone that even Zhuang Sen hesitates to challenge alone. After all, he is also affected by the realm's influence, and if he were to be instantly killed by the smooth combo of "sealed bloodline" and "nuclear bombing," it would be troublesome. But it is precisely because of this that Zhuang Sen is certain that the Ferro World is indeed fully invading the Monster Girl World—if he were to unleash the power to transform the Holy City, Zhuang Sen wouldn't be able to advance to its feet so easily.
Putting aside other issues, if there is more missile bombing support, Zhuang Sen will have to devote a lot of his forces to preventing interception, which will reduce the number of people he can send out to lead troops independently.
Zhuang Sen took one last look at the mechanical city that wasn't too far from him, then flapped his wings and disappeared into the sky above the city, which had already been occupied by a large number of monster girls, and returned to the Holy King's Palace—or so it seemed.
Ferro World, who had been watching from afar, breathed a sigh of relief.
For the world of Ferro, not keeping an eye on Zhuang Sen was extremely worrying. Although it could no longer infiltrate the Sea King's Palace, it had left a backup plan on Zhuang Sen during an unexpected encounter, allowing it to pinpoint Zhuang Sen's approximate location. Hmm, it seemed he had indeed resumed his futile breeding activities as usual; it needed to hurry.
Neptune Palace.
Zhuang Sen was indeed here, but not entirely—his consciousness was within the elven heritage space.
Although Zhuang Sen could physically enter the inheritance space after Zero awakened, that didn't mean he had to. He could still just let his consciousness in, just like at the beginning.
The inheritance space of the elves is a vast island, with dense forests, magnificent cities, and even dark underground spaces, large enough to accommodate all elf species with different habits. Of course, now is not the time to admire the scenery; Zhuang Sen has come here with a purpose.
No, I'm not looking for living elves here. Unfortunately, elves don't have the same luck as dwarves, centaurs, or angels. All that's left here is the legacy of the elves. In fact, since there are no elf monster girls, Zhuang Sen can't get any rewards from this, so naturally there's no good stuff like the [Source Blood Gem - Elf].
But that doesn't mean there's nothing worth studying or valuable about it.
Rather, this could be considered Zhuang Sen's last backup plan.

Chapter 356: Attack on the Holy City
Time slipped away amidst the flames of war, and several months passed in the blink of an eye. Nothing particularly unexpected happened during this time. The Holy Kingdom and its army suffered repeated defeats against Zhuang Sen's monster girl legion and the Holy Salvation Alliance, quickly losing over 80% of their territory. The remaining 10% survived only because it was too remote and distant to warrant a large-scale military offensive—after all, the priority now was to capture the Holy City.
At this moment, outside the firing range of the Holy City, the entire Holy Salvation Alliance's two million-strong army completely surrounded this colossal city built against the mountainside. Banners fluttered like a forest, and the sheer number of people was overwhelming. As far as the eye could see, it resembled a swarm of ants climbing a hill, dense yet orderly, complex yet not chaotic. Such a magnificent and massive army was unprecedented for the monarchs of this world, especially since its combat power far surpassed that of previous eras; it wasn't just a bunch of weak ordinary people thrown together to make up the numbers.
This instilled in the participants even greater reverence and respect for Johnson and His Majesty the Holy King. Vortigern, who was fortunate enough to have escaped beheading, was a prime example; he was now a loyal member of the Holy Salvation Alliance! The High Mountain Kingdom? Don't utter such words that undermine the alliance's unity! Moreover, and naturally, he was no longer a [Red Dragon] bloodline holder, but a modified bloodline soldier, a glorious professional, a [Red Dragon Warlock]!
Therefore, in the Allied Forces' command center, Zhuang Sen called his name: "Vortigern, take your own men and Nia's dwarven shield guards and make the first charge to test the enemy's artillery firepower and sealing strength. Don't push yourself too hard."
"Your will, Lord Alliance Master." Vortigern, whose arm had already recovered, bowed and accepted the order, but some doubts lingered in his mind. Why was he in charge of Lady Nia Harper's dwarven shield guards? They were all... cough cough, anyway, not ordinary monster girls. Come to think of it, it seems not only Lady Harper, but also Lady Starr, His Holiness the Pope... where are quite a few ladies today?
It wasn't just Vortigern who noticed this; many other generals and marshals also took note. Baro noticed that only one of his two daughters was present. The atmosphere became somewhat chaotic, and Zhuang Sen could only tap the table: "Stop guessing. Dantalian is about to give birth, and Nia, Lysander, Hana, Angela, Lia, Lilith, Celine, and Mira are all pregnant as well. I've left them at the Holy King's Palace."
Vottigen was taken aback, then quickly offered his congratulations to Zhuang Sen: "Congratulations, Alliance Leader, on the birth of your son..."
"A noble lady is more like it; a monster girl can only give birth to monster girls." Zhuang Sen waved his hand. "Alright, enough of this digression. Let's continue the military council. Baro, you take..."
Not long after, the military council concluded. The specific strategies had already been discussed before the army's departure; this was merely a reiteration to address any shortcomings and prevent elementary mistakes. And so, on this ordinary day, not particularly sunny, the massive war began once more.
Vortigern led his Highland Dragonblood Guard and the dwarven shield guards temporarily assigned to him, crossing the previously tested line of fire and entering the attack range of the Holy City. Almost instantly, all the turrets and machine guns on the high wall they faced began to rotate, and a large number of four-corner drones took off, fiercely firing their loaded shells.
In an instant, a deluge of artillery fire, so dense it resembled a bullet hell game, rained down on Vortigern and his army. Faced with an attack that could easily annihilate the former elite of the mountain kingdom, Vortigern and his men remained relaxed, skillfully raising their shields and jointly unleashing several layers of red barriers. These barriers weren't powerful; they were practically shatterable at the slightest touch. However, they were large enough and spread rapidly enough that each fragile layer could easily contact hundreds or thousands of cannonballs, detonating them!
After several rounds, the overwhelming artillery fire was completely cleared away, with not a single shell successfully landing on the ground—this is a new technology developed in the midst of fierce warfare: wide-area multi-frequency guided interception!
It's difficult to target each artillery piece individually against this kind of widespread barrage with varying speeds and power. Fixed fortifications aren't everywhere, and even if they are, they'll eventually break down. So it's better to just throw your life away. After all, these fragile barriers are cheap to use and easy to deploy. If all else fails, you can use special rune items to release them.
Taking advantage of the lull in the first wave of attacks, the dwarf women, carrying the salvaged monster girl lairs, immediately activated them. With these valuable, fully-leveled lairs reactivated, the previously suppressed and unusable bloodline power loosened, no longer completely untouchable. The dwarf women then promptly erected defensive fortifications on the spot, protecting the monster girl lairs within a rock fortress harder than ordinary metal!
Once this series of actions was completed, Vottigan led his troops forward again.
This time, the artillery fire was more intense and more agile.
Wide-area, multi-frequency decoy interception tactics are not invincible. If the artillery fire is fast enough and has a wide enough range, the target can be brought into the attack range before the detonation barrier detonates. Alternatively, if the shells are maneuverable, they can evade the detonation barrier on their own. After all, even the widest area cannot cover the entire world, and there is no need to defend behind one's back.
So in this round, Vortigern suffered a round of explosions.
"The power is so-so. Although it wasn't a direct hit, the effect is about the same as those cities we encountered before..."
Vortigern glanced at his men, who were covered in dust and dirt, but suffered only minor injuries like spitting out a couple of mouthfuls of blood and losing a few ears, and continued his advance. The Holy City's firepower covered a wide area, several kilometers. But that didn't matter. For the transformed Allied forces, without interference, it was only a minute or two's march, and even with this defensive offensive, it would only take four or five minutes.
Bloodline modification, potion enhancement, and ability boosting!
Don't underestimate the power of magic, you foolish tin can!
After two rounds of bombardment, Vortigern had already crossed a quarter of the road, but as they went deeper and got closer to the Fero people in the Holy City, their bloodline power once again subsided, and even the power system of the professionals was suppressed, with only rune items and robot technology still functioning.
But it doesn't matter, the dwarves have unearthed a new monster girl's lair.
This time, however, a muffled rumble of thunder echoed through the capital, as if the gods were enraged. Vortigern immediately roared, "Missile attack! All personnel defend!"
Having seen countless battles and even been bombed by missiles, the dwarven shield guards immediately unleashed all available defensive enhancements and abilities. At the same time, they quickly dug a deep pit on the stone path leading to the Holy City and threw the monster girl's lair into it.
The next second, Vortigern transformed into a giant dragon and soared into the sky. His body collided with several incoming missiles, and a mushroom cloud immediately exploded in the air. Broken dragon scales mixed with charred dragon flesh and dragon blood fell to the ground, and the powerful shockwave and radiation directly blew away one-tenth of the Highland Dragonblood Guard and a small number of unfortunate dwarven shield guards.
boom.
Unable to hold on any longer, Vortigern collapsed to the ground, transforming from his tattered dragon form back into an equally disheveled human: "Phew, that's enough, time to go back."
The testing has reached its limit; the next wave of missiles won't be just a few more. But as expected, it's similar to the cities we've captured before—we can't kill them with a single blow, so they're even less of a threat to the Alliance Leader and his wives.
The Dragonblood Guards helped their king and general to their feet. The dwarf girl filled the deep pit again to prevent the monster girl's lair from being destroyed by a single cannon shot. Then, she followed the Dragonblood Guards' robot troop carrier with her short legs.
……
Within the City of Sacred Light, Ferroworld looked at the black metal that was just a hair's breadth away from completely covering the colorful sphere of light and made up his mind.
Chapter 357: The Siege of the Holy Capital
Ferro knew he had no other choice.
That arrogant scoundrel from the Third World would never let him go, especially with such a huge advantage! His only chance to turn the tables was to seize the power of the Monster Girl World before he was destroyed, which would also allow him to seize Zhuang Sen's power! But Zhuang Sen arrived too quickly. He was just a little short, but at Zhuang Sen's current pace, he was probably still a little short when Zhuang Sen stormed in.
Yes, the world of Ferro believed even more than Zhuang Sen, and even more than the Holy Salvation Alliance, that Zhuang Sen could storm into the Holy City. This was because he was well aware of the current situation within the Holy City. Due to a lack of technological updates, the Holy City's artillery fire was essentially no different from that of the surrounding cities and fortresses, differing only in quantity. This was insufficient to stop Zhuang Sen.
Especially now that Zhuang Sen has the support of android technology, even if he relies on the strength of his domain to surpass the domain coverage of the monster girl's lair and forcibly seal their bloodline, he still cannot prevent them from using android technology. Ultimately, the world of Ferro itself has also used a lot of android technology to replicate its original technological path.
Because he is not yet the ruler of this world, he is still in a state of merging with the monster girl world, forming a new world. It's a situation where one is part of the other, and neither can completely exclude the other. If it weren't for this, he wouldn't be able to directly interfere with Qin Si's monster girl world. But it's also because of this that even though his realm crushes the monster girl world's realm, as long as they create even the slightest gap, some things can be used.
For example, robot technology, and rune items. In other words, even within their own realm, the Ferro people do not currently have an absolute advantage. In fact, because both sides possess firearms, even the advantage of defending against attacking a city has been significantly weakened.
Therefore, Ferro World had no doubt that Zhuang Sen could break through the Holy City. In fact, based on the current situation, he could even calculate how long it would take Zhuang Sen to break in—he had to buy more time.
This means we must send more forces to delay Johnson Leon. But right now, the only force the Ferro World can still mobilize is the Ferro people.
The Ferro's true form isn't just a steel shell; those alone aren't enough. The Ferro's true form must fight on the city walls head-on! Firstly, this will try to compensate for the vast numerical disparity, allowing more automated turrets to switch to manual operation, avoiding easy elimination by cheap tactics like wide-area, multi-frequency guided interception. Secondly, it will utilize their strong anchoring effect to reduce the time it takes for Zhuang Sen's forces to unlock robot technology, thus prolonging the time needed to breach the city.
However, this would mean that all the Fero's original bodies would also die, and the number of his anchor points would decrease rapidly. If he couldn't take over the Monster Girl World before then, it would be equivalent to losing without a fight.
But—now there's no other choice!
In the Holy City, alarms suddenly sounded in the dark, neon-lit skyscrapers. The Ferro people, trapped inside and completely absorbed in manipulating their mechanical bodies to fight the enemy, were greeted by the long-awaited sunlight. Immediately afterwards, the Ferro world's orders took control of their minds without question, dressing them in pre-prepared full sets of equipment and using small flying vehicles to land on the city wall, which was over a hundred meters high and large enough to accommodate four war chariots speeding side by side.
The automated turrets popped open their connection points, the unmanned combat vehicles deployed their connection lines, drones hovered and connected to new command signals, and missile silos popped open one after another. No longer needing to consider the impact on the Ferro people themselves, these silos practically filled every corner of the Holy City. And in the gaps between these silos and turrets, some strange structures, resembling loudspeakers and signal towers, rose up.
Having unleashed its last remaining power to resist the enemy, the Ferro World decisively severed its connection to the outside world and focused entirely on the erosion.
Alice was powerless to stop this scene, and could only pray in her heart: "Johnson, you must find out..."
……
boom!
A massive mushroom cloud rose in the sky and bloomed on the ground. The monster girls who intercepted the missiles were covered in blood, while the soldiers and ordinary monster girls on the ground who were directly hit suffered heavy casualties. The only thing that was fortunate was that the world of Ferro had not yet developed the technology to destroy the souls along with the nuclear bombs. Therefore, after the continuous explosions, monster girls with soul abilities, such as corpse demons, Durahans, banshees, angels, and fallen angels, immediately rushed to collect the souls of the unfortunate fallen.
What awaits them is transformation into undead creatures like ghosts and zombies, or they can choose to rest in peace. Of course, it's even simpler for monster girls; the warm [bloodline essence] can directly grant them new bodies—but that's all after the war.
Zhuang Sen flapped his wings, dispersing the thick smoke and dust. His eyes blazed with fury. The monster girl's lair, protected by the monster girls' bodies and strength, shimmered below him, restoring his suppressed power. This allowed him to successfully throw his holy spear towards the city wall, which was now only three or four kilometers away!
The barrage of projectiles heading towards them was instantly cleared, and the sounds of explosions and billowing smoke stretched across the sky for three or four kilometers, completely obscuring the sunlight. In this delightful environment, the vampire and the hobbit monster girl seized the opportunity to sprint ahead, finally managing to unleash their abilities at the last possible moment and distance.
Completely different, yet equally alluring, the song made the Ferro people who were fighting in their true forms dizzy, and they subconsciously raised their weapons to point at themselves or their companions. However, due to the influence of the realm, the effect of the charm was greatly weakened, and a loud gunshot rang out, which woke all the Ferro people up.
"Damn it, if only Lady Hana and Lady Mira were here!"
The monster girl temporarily in charge of commanding the vampires and harpies spoke reluctantly, but could only retreat rapidly again, handing over the main battlefield to the ordinary troops that had caught up and the monster girls who were more adept at head-on combat.
But they had only retreated a short distance when they suddenly realized something was wrong—the soldiers seemed to be surrounding them.
The vampire's acting general looked at a soldier in front of him and easily noticed that his eyes had lost their luster, and his scarlet pupils were surging with rage: "These bastards, they actually dared to use our own methods against us!"
That's right. Mind control is so effective, and it's a technique used in both worlds, so how could the Ferro World not use it? Those jarring loudspeakers and signal tower-like structures are mind controllers developed by the Ferro World. They use ultrasonic waves to create illusions for carbon-based life forms within their range, making them believe that the beings in front of them are the enemies, while the Ferro World is their friend, a benevolent entity that treats them with utmost kindness!
To be honest, the Ferro World didn't have high hopes for this, since it was easy to undo the mind control on the opposing monster girls. They simply figured they might as well use it since they'd already figured it out, so they set up numerous turrets and launch silos in locations where they couldn't install them, and granted the Ferro people access to them. But for the Ferro people, who had been constantly on the defensive, seeing their enemies all fall victim to the brainwashing was a cause for celebration. They were especially thrilled to see that the monster girls actually obeyed orders and raised their weapons against them.
"Kill them! Kill them all!"
A high-ranking member of the Fero people shouted, having already generously decided in his heart to fulfill the fantasies of some of the meritorious natives. He envisioned them living a 24/7 life, instead of the grueling 996 work schedule. He would also grant them the honorable identity of the Fero, freeing them from the stigma of being lowly primitive and exploited by a group of backward feudal lords, allowing them to join in enjoyable, endless labor!
