Chapter 822: 280. How much romance do you men really have?_2

The situation before them was not as they had imagined.

After all, Murphy and Cui Si were unable to guarantee that Count Cico and her Winged Cavalry would definitely come, so they did not share this news with the Defending Army.

But this did not hinder the people of Transylvania from feeling joy and exhilaration upon seeing their legendary Winged Cavalry appear on the battlefield.

For many years, this Cavalry unit, under the banner of Count Cico, had been the ultimate symbol of deterrence in Transylvania—invincible in any war they participated in!

And tonight would be no different!

However, the scene of the Winged Cavalry sweeping across the battlefield looked quite different in Murphy’s eyes.

"The Winged Cavalry have indeed suffered heavy casualties."

While grasping the Necessary Evil and fighting unrivaled through the Jackals, Murphy thought to himself:

"It is said that at their peak, Count Cico commanded an Invincible Legion of 5,000 Heavy Cavalry, financed by the entire treasury of the Posya Confederation, the number one Cavalry on the continent.

But in the battle where Westerburg was destroyed by the plague, most of them were buried in the city’s defenses. It seems that the forest could not sustain more than a thousand Knights, so if nothing unexpected happens, these before us are all the remaining Winged Cavalry.

men...

Tsk tsk, just like the Blood Vulture Clan, they’re barely drawing their last breaths."

But from my perspective as Governor, this is a marvelously good thing. If they really had 2,000 Cavalry left, then it would be me who couldn’t sleep at night."

"What are you thinking about?"

A familiar voice arose from behind.

Murphy swung his sword to cut off an Elite Barbarian Soldier’s claw, then kicked the foe towards a small player to die dismembered by chaotic blades, before he shook the blood off his blade and turned around.

Behind him, crimson Psychic Lightning burst forth in a spreading fashion within the darkness.

The jumping arcs of electricity pulled every living thing they touched into agonizing shocks, and even more wondrous, this was not a one-off Psychic force, but more like a persistent AOE "static electric field."

As Cui Si walked with her delicate scepter in hand, Jackals convulsed and fell en masse by her side.

To describe it thus might not befit Cui Si’s current grace and poise, but Murphy felt his Cui Si was like a diligent farmer wielding a sickle, tirelessly harvesting the ripe wheat.

With Cui Si’s presence here, it signified there were no further impediments to the reactivation of the Nocturne Enchantment.

There was no need for her, the Manipulator, to remain there to sustain it any longer, finally free to bolster this battle that had entered its final phase.

A Spiritual Overlord had appeared on the battlefield!

If the Jackals were smart enough, they should start running now, no, no, no, if they were smart enough, they should have fled as soon as the Winged Cavalry appeared on the flank of the battlefield.

In response to Cui Si’s inquiry, Murphy shrugged and answered:

"Nothing much, just some boring and dark political thoughts that I shouldn’t utter, lest they spoil the hard-earned victory of tonight.

I think everything is so wonderful tonight precisely because my Goddess of Victory has blessed me. Perhaps, after all this is over, we should revisit that ’ritual’."

"Smooth talker!"

Cui Si glared at him, raised her hand in a holding motion in front of her, and the gathered Spiritual Energy burst forth.

In the grip of the giant crimson ghostly claw, a large group of Jackals were lifted into the air and then flung away like cannonballs with the movement of Cui Si’s hand.

This technique dealt minimal damage.

But Cui Si was well aware that it would inflict even more fear upon the already terrified Jackals, and that fear had become the deadliest blade in their hands, making the enemy utterly horrified with every swing.

She continued to cast this unique Spell, ensuring the Jackals experienced the ’joy’ of flying while trapped with no escape.

"I could summon a few dimensional meteors to liven things up."

She turned to Murphy and said:

"Do you need it?"

"No, we don’t need that,"

Lord nodded, seriously saying:

"This is enough; their will has been crushed, and for the forthcoming ’Transylvania Hundred Days Major Construction’ project, we need a great many laborers.

The Jackals have extraordinary Endurance and more Strength than ordinary humans, and it would be a waste to kill them here.

I want to see them apply their brute force in the right place, like constructing a thoroughfare that runs north to south through Count Cadman’s Domain and extending that road over the following months northward to the forests of the Westerly Territory and southward to the edge of the Polluted Swamp.

We are about to fight a real war, Cui Si.

Such a main road would make it ten times easier to transport supplies and manpower.

The Jackals, for their war crimes, will be brought before a military tribunal, and the only punishment and redemption they will receive is to constructively contribute to the land they’ve plagued with their own hands."

"Do you really plan to mobilize the Jackal war prisoners on a large scale?"

Cui Si blinked and said:

"Once they band together, they become very dangerous. If they acquire a looting leader, they’ll quickly turn into bandits. If you relax your control, these guys might start trouble when the Black Disaster comes."

"Yes, I admit that there is a real risk of that."

Murphy nodded and displayed an indescribable smile, he said softly:
