Vampire Overlord System in the Apocalypse

Chapter 438 - The War Begins...



-----

Noah felt as if he was playing a strategy game based on War. In front of him there was a big projection of the entirety of the battlefield made by his bat-clones.

In there, there was the Kingdom of Windias, his fortress which he was protecting, while from the West and East, two massive armies of thousands of divine beasts led by Dragon Heroes were moving hastily to invade him and destroy this place which he had worked hard to conquer.

He had settled down his units already, invoking two large armies of several powerful soldiers, which he had led by several special units, heroes, as if this were a game where hero units boost large armies with their buffs and also are formidable by themselves.

Each of these "Hero Units" included Arudiel, Demise, the Deadly Sins, and so on. And each Unit enhanced the power of the troops by merely being near them.

Arudiel and Demise were also able to conjure his Lifeblood Jewel abilities, alongside the Twelve Dragon Heroes, while Vritra, the Draconic Fathers, and the Deadly Sin Knights were able to conjure their own Lifeblood Jewel Abilities too, but all the energy was drained from him alone.

So Noah was constantly being drained of his vast divine energy expenses. He had thankfully acquired a large quantity of it through devouring Gergesh and many other corpses of divine beasts and was continuously munching down on them too as we speak. He was constantly recovering energy by devouring corpses of divine beasts belonging to Gergesh divine realm, and also drinking large quantities of blood from his Blood Sea.

Additionally, the power of faith was strong on this one, as he acquired even larger streams of powerful divine energy rushing towards him through the faith of his people all around the divine realm, they were all praying to him regularly, so all this praying became energy for him to refill himself even faster.

Due to this, despite the insane expense of divine energy, he was handling it just fine, although, he noticed that now that they were upgraded, the cost of divine energy they had was increased several times, and even with every single regeneration buff he could get, he was barely managing, barely…

If he were to conjure something strong, he would end up losing more and more divine energy.

He required to gain more even faster.

He extended several tentacles around his divine realm and continued to engulf divine beasts and drink his endless blood sea, even with this, it was barely enough.

As he desperately regained energy to fuel his powerful troops, he commanded the entire battlefield while sitting on his Blood Throne, while his family was resting inside of their home.

He looked intensively as things happened.

His army had been summoned in both sides and both armies were led by strong Hero Units, as he called them, while all other Soldiers were merely named Soldier Units to him.

"Hmm… The side that leads to Aquaias is pulling through faster."

Noah looked at the scene as if he were playing a tabletop strategy game, he looked as he began to move his troops forward with a mere thought.

The massive army of dragons, vampires, undead, and summoned elemental dragons rushed forward, slaying the enemies mercilessly.

However, some of his troops were still taking big loses, a large chunk of them were dying sometimes, although they slowly recovered as they multiplied by absorbing the corpses of the enemy, but there were sometimes where these water-type divine beasts would gang over a small group of his troops and decimate them, only to be slaughtered by the Generals, such as Arudiel.

Noah distributed the troops based in their leaders. He put the Seven Deadly Sins Knights to battle against Aquaias\' army, accompanied by the powerful Arudiel. Meanwhile, he put the Twelve Heroes to fight against Gaias\' troops, led by Demise!

Scarlet divided herself in two to buff everyone and also act as a tank of large amount of troops, while Vritra was left with Arudiel and the Draconic Fathers with Demise.

He ordered the Deadly Sins to release their domain, as he saw that his enemy, who was also inspecting the battlefield, a large fish-shaped dragon, Sadratonn, the Evil Dragon God of Abyssal Seas had suddenly unleashed his buffing skills over his allies and his soldiers gained a powerful Domain of Water which boosted their capacity to greater degrees. Noah looked at this scene with utter contempt, fascinated by the prospects of a battle that wasn\'t direct but strategic!

He smiled.

"Heh, good one, your mass of soldiers have enhanced themselves greatly, but your Heroes are lacking in power, despite carrying fragments of your soul, they\'re not quite good enough to fight Arudiel and the Deadly Sins if I combine their strength… Scarlet is also ganging on them, while Vritra must concentrate into continuously conjure the Lifeblood Jewel abilities to boost the army of Undead constantly… Arudiel is doing the same, so there are two Domains set over the entire battlefield, which are also coupled with an additional buffing skill from Arudiel\'s roar and command…"

Noah calculated the damage output and the enhancements to his army, things were going well, but the Heroes of the Aquaias Kingdom finally showed up, they were five. All of them were of unimportant names or appearances which Noah didn\'t really cared much, but they were strong, all five of them were of a different element, and Arudiel and the Deadly Sin Knights were battling with all they had to defeat them.

The buffs they got were working wonderfully, as Arudiel finally managed to get over one of them, a fire-type hero with the appearance of a large comodo dragon, his entire body was splattered into pieces and promptly converted into an Undead Hero, which joined the fight against the others, this was Vritra\'s doing!

"Excellent work there, Vritra." He said, as Noah smiled.

He watched the battle unfold as there were still four other Dragon Heroes, which were like strong General Units, final bosses that took time and strategy to defeat!
