Capítulo 995: Chapter 691: Fengyue Free Territory
Red Maple King Otto was finally dead.
This figure, who had wielded power in Fengye Territory for several decades, was shown to the public on Zelolan’s square, and after being personally announced by Sophia for a public trial, he quickly faced the wrath of the angry locals.
Never underestimate the fury of the masses.
No matter how a group expresses emotions, whether good or bad, its prominent characteristic is extre simplicity and exaggeration.
The stronger the emotion, the more evident this tendency becos.
Years of oppression, coupled with a series of brutal actions after converting to the Evil God, disregarding the safety of the residents, had long driven the hatred towards Otto in the entire Fengye Territory to a climax.
When Otto was in power, people dared not speak up, and the existence of extraordinary powers made the weak residents afraid to rebel.
But when Otto fell from power, when Sophia and the elves triumphed over the Red Maple Kingdom as saviors, the people’s rage finally could be vented, like a volcano erupting fiercely after being dormant for long.
Otto von Kapadocia, this vampire hidden among the nobles of the Human World, the King of the Red Maple Kingdom, a legendary expert once just a step away from Divine Enthronent, was ultimately beaten to death by the ordinary people, whom he always looked down upon but who had ignited in fury.
It is said that because too many people participated, by the ti the elves ca to retrieve his body, it was no longer in human shape, almost beaten into mince.
The mince mixed with so filth, unknown if discarded by the people or originally belonging to Otto, exuded a suffocating stench.
That sight, that sll, even made the Elf Warriors who went to handle the body vomit on the spot and took a long while to recover.
Vampires are quite different from other species.
Their souls are unique, a life form between undead and living beings. For them, unless they beco Divine Favored of so deity, once the body dies, the soul also perishes…
Therefore, at the mont of Otto’s death, he completely beca a part of Segis World’s history.
Otto’s death, the main army of the Red Maple Kingdom was defeated, and the Evil God behind them finally perished at the hands of the Goddess of Life…
This fallen regi, which lasted less than half a year, also completely lost the power to resist against the Elf Army.
The remaining areas of Fengye Territory almost capitulated at once under the attack of the elves.
So towns even directly rebelled, raised the elves’ red flag, declared joining this Holy War against the heretics, swore allegiance to Saintess Sophia of Fengye Territory, and supported her as the new Border Earl.
Well… the title of Saintess was entirely a spontaneous call by the people.
After all, the girl’s care for the residents along the way was witnessed by everyone, also representing the faith of the Goddess of Life.
Coupled with her outstanding appearance thanks to her elven heritage, other than those remaining nobles who uphold pure human lineage, all other residents found it hard not to feel favorably towards the half-elf girl…
Just like seeing the statue of the Goddess of Life accelerated the conversion rate of faith among the territory’s people unconsciously.
After all, people… like beautiful things.
With strong troops, overwhelming military power, standing on the moral and righteous high ground… this Holy War can be said to be a foregone conclusion.
Under the iron hoof of the elves’ southward army, various towns almost surrendered upon hearing the news, city after city pledged allegiance, making the players hoping for a grand battle sowhat disappointed.
Only the siege of Fengye City was a bit troubleso. This largest city in Fengye Territory, also the city where the Cappadocia Family had operated the longest, still had so die-hard supporters of this vampire family.
But facing the players’ army of hundreds of thousands, along with all sorts of militia and rcenaries spontaneously joining during the attack, reaching an astonishing number of fifty to sixty thousand, this fortress second only to Augus City, also fell after barely half a day.
Half a day was quite long, purely supported by so high-level professionals loyal to the Cappadocia Family.
For forces without divine protection, it’s impossible to establish themselves in the affluent regions of Segis World.
This is the rule of the extraordinary world and also the sorrow of the weak in the extraordinary world.
With Fengye City’s fall, the road leading to the Elf Forest throughout Fengye Territory was completely opened.
Thus, the centuries-long rule of the Cappadocia Family over Fengye Territory was conclusively ended.
The chaos that ravaged Fengye Territory for half a year has ended.
However, what surprised everyone in the entire territory was that the savior of Fengye Territory, the preacher of life, the Divine Favored of the Goddess—Saintess Sophia, actually renounced the title of Border Earl.
No, it wasn’t just the title.
She even announced the abolition of all noble titles in Fengye Territory, and the rger of Fengye Territory and the southern area of the Western Domain, renaming it as Fengyue Free Territory, a new term ford by combining “Fengye” and “Moon.”
Fengyue Free Territory will have no nobles, no slaves, only free citizens of equal status, abolish feudalism, and implent democratic centralism.
Simultaneously, Sophia also announced the establishnt of the Fengyue Free Territory Council to guide the future developnt of the entire Fengyue Territory, setting 137 seats in the council based on the distribution of towns and city population.
Every believer of life in the territory, everyone with beautiful expectations and pursuits for the future, and the ability and wisdom, can apply to join after eting certain conditions, and formally beco a mber of the council if they receive two-thirds of the votes in the council.
