Modern Cultivation : The Strongest Couple Bonded by Vampire System
Chapter 163: Attack!

Meanwhile, the guards had already reported to the General responsible for defending the palace. The general quickly raised the palace alert to the highest level.

He walked toward the wall at the main gate, looking at the moat with his own eyes.

The once crystal clear moat now turned completely black as ink. It even started spreading toward the river, contaminating everything.

Alex smirked, seeing the result of his work. What he just spilled was oil. Alex had many barrels stored because he planned to send them to the Cultivation world.

It's not prepared to fuel energy or generators but to create a factory to produce a more dangerous liquid.

DragonFire gel is a flammable liquid that sticks and burns intensely. It's an enhanced form of Napalm, using the same material mixed with another exotic material from the dungeon, Basilisk's Resin.

This Resin is a sap from a unique tree that has strange properties. It has a very strong adhesive but only reacts to organic material.

So, a dragon fire gel will make a flame that only burns living beings. It's a very destructive weapon. But Alex didn't have any Basilisk Resin, so he still held onto the barrel of oil.

As oil is less dense than water, it quickly made its way to the water's surface and then gathered there.

The next thing he did was unleash the monsters he captured from the forest.

"GROOOARR!!!!" A roar of beasts could be heard from over the moat as many monsters suddenly appeared surrounding the castle. With their large size, it only took hundreds of them to completely surround the castle.

The General's eyes widened; this was the first time in all his life he saw monsters materialize out of nowhere.

"What are you bumpkins dazing for! Move! Kill all of them!" The general ordered.

The soldiers quickly moved into position; they took out their rifles and then locked onto the monsters, some of them moved to the turret.

'I recognize these monsters; they all come from the forbidden forest; just how did all of them reach here?' The General questioned in his mind.

Then, a thought surfaced in his mind. He remembered the Forbidden Forest has a few monsters they categorize as kings. These monsters were giants, each of them easily the size of their towering buildings, but this is not what made them scary.

Each king had some intelligence and special abilities. He quickly contacted everyone manning the wall on the other side. Making sure that his king didn't appear. Even though he was sure they could kill it, this could easily create big casualties.

They may have a big moat and giant wall protecting the palace, but behind the monsters, it's a freeway toward the city; they could easily massacre the civilians, sowing chaos everywhere.

He started contacting the local authorities to evacuate the civilians and block the area.

Thankfully, since the area was around the palace, it was filled with nobles. Each of them had their own army and already knew what to do. So, the evacuation went without a hitch.

But the General's worry for public safety was not necessary. All monsters were under Alex's order. They will attack the castle to their deaths.

BRrrrrttt!!! Bang! BANG! BANG!

Bullets shot through the air while the monsters roared. They started marching, trying to enter the castle from the moat and even the bridge toward the gate.

Alex's position is now on the opposite side of the main entrance. Seeing the chaos start, he then took out an incendiary grenade. With one motion, he threw it into the moat.

BOOM!

The grenade exploded; it took no time for fire to spread to the moat. At the same time, Alex covered his body and then jumped into the moat.

He took out an underwater scooter. It's a device that helps to propel him underwater. Increasing his speed even further.

As the monsters were still confused by the sudden change of environment, Alex used the opportunity to move quickly to the secret entrance.

He entered the underground water tunnel, taking him inside the palace. Reaching his destination, Alex carefully swam, reaching the wall, as he put the water scooter back into his storage ring.

He then slowly rose close to the surface. Above the water, there is a platform guarded by two armed soldiers. The soldiers had their backs pointed at the water.

Usually, there are more guards here, but since the palace was attacked, the guards were moved toward the wall to fight against the invaders.

"Did you hear? The palace was attacked; I wonder who had the nerve to do this."

"Is it those terrorist groups? The one calling for the complete removal of the royalty?"

"Those people don't know what they are talking about. There is no way we can completely remove the royalty."

"Well, can you blame them? You know how prejudiced most of them toward the normal people is?"

"That reminds me, do you remember the fourth prince? I heard his girlfriend is a commoner. So not all royalty is like that."

"What, girlfriend? That is because he had no choice. You don't know; there are rumors that the prince cannot get it up."

"For real?" The guard wanted to say more but suddenly felt a grip on his ankle; in the next moment, he was pulled inside the water. This quickly made the other guard alert. He turned his gaze, looking behind him, but it was too late.

BAM!

Alex hit him in the neck, turning him unconscious. He then threw both of them into the Awe cube. Looking at the locked door, Alex didn't even bother to try to lockpick it.

With everything in chaos outside and the guards busy attacking the animals, he took out, but he knew it wouldn't last long. The flame he ignited also turned the moat impassable for the monsters.

So all of them now were gathered at the bridge, becoming target practice for the guards. It won't take long for them to finish them all. After that, they will start combing the palace since it's only a matter of time for them to replace out the two guards missing from the dock.
