Meanwhile, at the temporary headquarters of the Earth Alliance in Salinsburgh, Nathan was in an urgent meeting with important figures like Leopold and Wolfric.
This meeting was different from the ones before, as there were many unfamiliar faces present.
These unfamiliar faces all belonged to vampires led by Hepburn.
When Nathan was mediating the dispute between the vampires and humans, he told the vampires that humans could provide them with their own land to live on, but the vampires had to accept human supervision. When necessary, they would also have to serve humans.
In the face of the Gods' invasion, the vampires had rightfully become members of the global village. Therefore, it was only natural for them to share the responsibility of defending Earth and contribute their strength.
Hepburn's vampires also gladly agreed to fight side by side with humans against Gods.
Of course there were still human Gods of War like Wolfric who had always hated vampires. The fact that vampires could sit at the same conference table with them, and even fight alongside them, was something he objected to.
However, such voices of dissatisfaction were forcefully suppressed by Nathan.
Nathan said in a deep voice, “The latest news indicates that the surviving Gods scattered on Earth have already begun to organize and are heading straight for us. Their target is us, the Earth's commanders! After identifying the enemy, Mondo and several other Gods of War led their respective troops to intercept. But they underestimated the power of Gods, which led to their complete annihilation.”
Upon hearing that, everyone was taken aback.
Hepburn couldn't help but furrow her beautiful brows.
Nathan added, “The Gods' troops are about to reach Salinsburgh. Although Salinsburgh has suffered severe damage from the previous attack by the spaceships, there are still millions of people within the city. We absolutely cannot allow these greedy Gods to enter the city. Otherwise, the safety of the city's residents cannot be guaranteed.”
With a grave voice, Leopold said, “We must immediately dispatch a strong team to intercept these damned b*stards.”
There were those who were sincere, and there were also those who were not.
Nathan was the only one who frowned. In his heart, he was already blaming Hepburn for her impulsiveness.
Hepburn, oh Hepburn, you are truly reckless and ignorant of your own limitations. According to the latest intelligence, this Gods troop is vast in number. The one leading the team, in particular, is speculated to be a powerful general. Several human Gods of War have already fallen. Yet you actually dared to make a military pledge. If the mission fails, should I execute you or spare you?
At that moment, Hepburn was filled with fighting spirit.
She didn't care that much.
Leading Max, Sinistral, and other reliable subordinates, she got up and left.
