Chapter 616: The System that Was a Little Stuffed

In the incomparably silent and pure dark space, Kant's eyes suddenly burst out with dense pitch-black data chains. In an instant, the figure that was madly pouncing over was bound in mid-air.

"Ah, darn it! What is this?" The figure only had time to scream before it collapsed and turned back into a drop of golden blood. From this drop of blood, Kant could feel the feeling of being deeply connected by blood.

The system's data chains wrapped the drop of golden blood tightly. There seemed to be a monster trapped in this drop of blood, constantly changing its form. From time to time, roars were coming from the golden blood.

"How dare you offend me? Do you know which god am I? I order you… ouch!"

"You are the only blood descendant of mine that still lives in this world. Stop right now. As a god, I can consider leaving your soul and consciousness behind to become my holy spirit! Ouch!"

"Lowly, scoundrel blood descendant. When you can no longer hold on to this darn thing, I will definitely let you taste all the torture in this world. I will let you experience the pain that I am currently experiencing. I will let you live forever and never stop enduring the cruel torture! Roar…"

Within the golden blood, the angry roars and screams of the voice kept coming, while Kant just watched quietly. The voice went from being high and mighty in the beginning to surrendering to Kant in a disguised form, to threatening him, followed by soft pleading, then cursing with despair, and finally, the golden blood completely quieted down.

The system's data chains began to quietly retract itself from Kant's pupils, leaving only a drop of golden blood floating quietly in the air.

"System, why didn't you absorb this drop of golden blood?" Kant was a little puzzled. He had originally intended for the system to absorb the human figure formed from the drop of blood, and naturally, that included this drop of golden blood.

"Hold on!" These simple words appeared on Kant's retina. This was the system's answer.

Kant had never thought that the system, which had always been striving for things with extraordinary powers, would actually have a "hold on" status.

Who was that guy who had been hiding in the golden blood and claimed to be a god? Unfortunately, this guy had never told Kant what god he was. Kant could only confirm that it was a god related to darkness.

At this moment, Kant suddenly realized that there was a burning desire in his heart as if he wanted to devour this drop of golden blood. Kant thought that since the system had already absorbed the guy hiding in the golden blood, it should be able to obtain a lot of information.

"System, can I absorb this drop of blood? Would there be any danger?"

"Please do as you wish!"

The words on his retina made Kant relax. Since he had come from the depths of his heart — there was only his soul and consciousness at the moment. It should be said that he had come from the depths of his soul to devour this drop of golden blood. Moreover, he had checked with the system to confirm that there was no danger, then, he naturally would not hesitate.

Slurp!

Kant did not encounter any obstacles and absorbed this drop of golden blood. The taste was sweet and fragrant as if it was a top-notch delicacy.

The moment the drop of golden blood was absorbed by Kant, the boundless dark space instantly disappeared. Kant returned to the Lion Fort, and the Crown of Darkness in his hand turned into a puff of black smoke and disappeared. The drop of golden blood was the foundation of the Crown of Darkness. After Kant swallowed the drop of golden blood, the Crown of Darkness naturally ceased to exist.

At this moment, Kant's expression was somewhat blank. In his imagination, that golden blood should be a very high-level item. However, other than Kant feeling that his supernatural power had changed a little, there were no other changes.

"Perhaps what is extraordinary is that fellow in the golden blood and not this drop of golden blood!" Kant thought.

At this moment, Kant's supernatural power had added another type of power, the Power of Darkness. This was what Kant had felt. As for the details of this Power of Darkness, other than the fact that it could also increase the strength of one's body and increase one's attack and defense, Kant did not know anything about the other functions, but the system definitely knew.

"System, help me to analyze the newly acquired Power of Darkness!"

"The system is busy, please consult later."

Kant blinked his eyes. He thought that he had seen wrongly, but after blinking, the row of words given by the system still remained.

The system would definitely not have such a status that he had never seen before for no reason. The only thing that Kant could think of was the guy hiding in the golden blood that the system had just absorbed.

That guy was able to "stuff" the system and made it enter a "busy" status. That guy was calling out "as a god, I could…", what kind of god was he? He was actually so terrifying.

"System, check my stats."

"System is busy, please consult later."

Kant didn't believe it and tried again, but the system was still in a busy status.

"Sigh, the system seems to be unreliable! For the army that suddenly appeared in the Nahrin Desert, I originally planned to try my luck to get help from the system, but it seems that this time, I can only rely on myself. I hope the system can get out of the busy loading as soon as possible." Kant was a little puzzled, at this critical moment, the system, which had always been as steady as an old dog, actually dropped the chain.

"I wonder how long will this last. I need to prepare for the worst! Without the help of the system, I can't level up the soldiers who can level up on the battlefield in time. Fortunately, I'm very strong now, and the East County has trained up tens of thousands of strong soldiers. With these soldiers, I should be able to deal with the armies of the Kingdom of Grey Mane and the Kingdom of Lizardmen with ease."

Although the system had dropped the ball at the crucial moment, Kant did not panic. After all, he was no longer a small lord who only had a small oasis, instead, he was a great lord who had brought more than half of the Dukedom of Leo into the territory of the new Caradia Empire. His strength was extremely tyrannical.

The descendants of the Sun God who had been transformed into undead by his pope were attacking Drondheim. It wasn't simply just attacking Drondheim, they were at war with the new Caradia Empire.

In fact, through the line in the dark dimension of the Crown of Darkness, Kant felt that he had already revealed his "background". However, it was a critical moment now, and he did not have the time to analyze it in detail.

After Kant settled the problem of the Crown of Darkness, he entered a new war status without any rest.

The number of Jackalan and Lizardmen from the Kingdom of Grey Mane and the Kingdom of Lizardmen at the northernmost coast of the Nahrin Desert was too many, almost a million in total. Even though Kant was confident in his own strength, he didn't dare to be careless.

Under such circumstances, it would be foolish to fight on two fronts.

Moreover, it could be said that they had already conquered the Dukedom of Leo.

This was because half an hour ago, his subordinate had reported to the four top noble families of the Dukedom of Leo. After the three world baron armies returned to their respective castles, their manors and castles had already been emptied, this included the Reese family, which had already lost their world noble families.

This problem was very clear to Kant. The four top noble families of the Dukedom of Leo had all retreated to their family's world baron's demiplane fiefdom. For the time being, they were not too much of a threat, and Kant had no time to bother with them.

In Kant's opinion, as long as their demiplane fiefdom was still in their castle, Kant could deal with them in the future.

In this way, only the upper-class noble of the Dukedom of Leo and the nobles of the East County who were in deep trouble was left on the road to support the Lion Fort.

As for them, Kant could prove that he had destroyed Cameron, the Grand Duke of Leo. As long as he charged them a fee for their escape, they would definitely "happily" accept Kant's expulsion. Kant was confident.

Two hours later, the upper-class nobles of the Dukedom of Leo and the nobles of the East County happily accepted Kant's conditions. On the surface, they were happy and grateful, but after they gave a large number of golden eagles to Baron Kant, they happily set off for other countries.

At this point, the entire Dukedom of Leo belonged to Baron Kant.

Kant assigned some troops to stay in the major cities and towns, as well as the newly occupied half of the South County and the entire East County. Then, he issued the highest military order: all the troops that were still in idle status, shall set off and meet at the Stone Pass. Kant would personally lead these troops to assist Drondheim.

The next morning, Kant and his troops, who were traveling by night, had already arrived at the Stone Pass. This was all thanks to the flourishing development of the new Caradia Empire. All the main roads had been formed into smooth paved roads, and they were standing on horses.

At the same time, the Caradia Empire had a sufficient number of horses, and all the soldiers could ride on horses. This was thanks to Kant's plan to dispose of the spoils of war. He could sell anything that he had, but he had never sold a warhorse, instead, he left these warhorses in the newly-born Caradia Empire to facilitate the transportation of the entire empire.

Of course, there was also the assistance of the mages' continuous group acceleration spell, which enable them to hasten.

Kant was at the north gate of the Stone Pass, overlooking the Nahrin Desert in the distance. A bright red sun rose, sprinkling down endless radiance filled with vigor and vitality, making the people bathing in it feel cheerful and energetic. Kant looked at the rising red sun, and could not help but think of the Caradia Empire that he had founded in this world. Wasn't the Caradia Empire like the Rising Red Sun, full of vigor and vitality, and would certainly spread its territory and spread its glory to every inch of the land of this world?

However, the Caradia Empire was now facing a crisis of war that concerned its survival. Only after this crisis was over could it climb higher and create a dazzling brilliance.

Kant continued to look at the Nahrin Desert. It had to be said that although the Nahrin Desert had a dangerous environment and was known as a forbidden zone for life, the Nahrin Desert in the morning was very beautiful. Under the orange-red sunlight, a vast expanse of yellow sand was seen, the sky was as vast as the land. It was like a magnificent painting scroll, full of vigor and painting the vast expanse.

However, Kant's mind was not in such a beautiful scenery. His gaze was ethereal and profound, as if he had transcended the barriers of time and space and descended on the majestic army that was slowly advancing in the yellow sand north of Drondheim.

Kant's lips curled up slightly as if he had received some happy news.

"There shouldn't be any god-level or world-class noble-level undead among the Sun God's descendants who have become undead. If that's the case, I can be said to be completely superior to them in terms of high-level power! I'm a world baron, and I have grasped the third level of the power of the rules of war. I have half a foot in the fourth level, and my explosive power is absolutely terrifying. With my goshawks supporting me in the air, I can completely assassinate the enemy's generals endlessly, so that the enemy will collapse without a fight. Just because I am the Baron of the world and have unparalleled combat strength, I alone can decide the outcome of this war."

Kant thought about this form of war and naturally calculated his own strength. In the end, he discovered such a terrifying result, and he was instantly overjoyed. After all, with the help of the goshawks who had submitted to him and Kant's powerful strength, if he wanted to carry out an assassination, no one would be able to withstand it, and no one would be able to encircle Kant with an army.

"I didn't expect that just casually considering the situation of the war, I would actually discover such a terrifying effect!" Kant's heart was beaming with joy. "If I'm here, then the situation of the war is already set. It would be difficult to lose the war here!"

Kant couldn't help but point his middle finger at the Red Sun. "Just you wait, descendants of the Sun God! I'll let you know the consequences of making an enemy out of me!"

Perhaps Kant's actions were too pretentious. Even the heavens couldn't stand it.

Just as Kant finished saying the last word, Kant suddenly realized that he seemed to have put on an invisible shackle at that moment. His power of the rules of war couldn't be used anymore.

Kant was immediately terrified. His power of the rules of war was still there. How could he suddenly be unable to use it?

"Power of the rules of war, fuse!" Kant tried the most basic use of the power of the rules of war. He directly fused it into his body, causing his body's quality to greatly improve.

He succeeded. His body rapidly strengthened. Kant's face was full of joy. "As expected, the feeling just now should be an illusion. The power of the rules of war is so powerful. How could I not be able to use it?"

However, after a short while, Kant's physical quality stopped improving. His physical quality had only increased by five times compared to usual. It was far from reaching the standard of fusing the power of the rules of war. Instead, it was the effect of the ordinary extraordinary power — the Power of War.

Kant's expression changed. "Could it be that my Power of War is really unable to be used again? Then, isn't my previous idea of victory even the most basic condition — that he has the strength of a World Baron?"

Chapter 617: Unusable Power

Kant was dumbfounded. His power of the rules of war was truly unusable. In this way, although he was a noble of the world, what difference was there between the power he could unleash and a Grand Knight at the peak?

For the application realm of extraordinary power, ordinary extraordinary power could only be used at the first realm, the universal realm. For higher realms like the materialization realm, they could only be used by the power of rules or the divine level power. Just from this point alone, Kant's combat strength had undoubtedly fallen from an extremely terrifying realm to the peak of a Grand Knight.

"Why is it like this?" Kant was so depressed that he wanted to go crazy. Just a moment ago, he wanted to rely on his super-powerful personal strength to become a superhero, so that he could single-handedly defeat the Jackalan Army of the Kingdom of Grey Mane and the Lizardmen Army of the Kingdom of Lizardmen.

Just as Kant was feeling depressed, the world will suddenly descend. It was formless and immaterial. It only sent Kant a message — more than two-thirds of the world baron and more than two-thirds of the gods had voted to agree, the "World Noble and Divine Power Restriction Agreement" was reactivated. The time limit was the same as last time. It was also 10,000 years.

After that, the content of the "World Noble and Divine Power Restriction Agreement" was also transformed into information by the world will and surged into Kant's mind. After Kant read it carefully, he discovered that it was precisely because of the reactivation of this restriction agreement that his power of the rules of war could not be used in the main plane. If he wanted to use the power of the rules of war, he could only enter his own fiefdom demiplane.

In Kant's head, the word "well" appeared in anger. This was clearly the world barons and the gods targeting him! In the message sent to him by the world will, there was a hint that this restriction agreement had already lapsed 2,000 years ago. It had not been reactivated for 2,000 years, yet it had suddenly been activated when his personal combat strength could sweep across the world barons. It would be strange if it was not targeted at him.

At that moment, Kant suddenly felt that many gazes were focused on him. To be precise, they were focused on his real name.

"Isai. Lannister Tolia!" Kant muttered his real name in his heart after a moment of silence. Complicated patterns of rules appeared in his eyes, which was also his real name. At that moment, Kant's perspective changed from a normal perspective to a rule perspective.

In the rule perspective, the world disappeared, leaving only the different colored rule patterns extending out from the world will that was like a silver-gray ball of light in the center. And Kant was now stepping on a dark red rule pattern. Under his feet was his real name.

At this moment, in the rule perspective, nearly a hundred human figures floated and stepped on the different colored rule patterns. There were forty-nine world barons and fifty to sixty gods. The godheads of the gods ran through the patterns of the rules, and they stepped on their godheads.

Kant now knew that the world nobles and the gods that appeared in the world of the rules were also will projections, and they could talk and communicate with each other. In the world of the main plane, the world nobles and the gods that were very far away were so close to each other in the world of the rules.

"Are you looking for me?" Kant's real name floated in his eyes as he looked at the hundreds of world barons and gods. He realized that the smiles of the world barons and gods seemed very sincere as if they wanted to establish a friendly relationship with Kant. Kant's strength was undeniable. Since their plan to kill Kant had failed, and the conflict between them and Kant wasn't too big, they weren't foolish enough to continue to make enemies with Kant. As for whether their smiles were sincere or not, that was a matter of opinion.

There were only three "old acquaintances", Baron Tyr. Isai. Maud, Baron Clark. Isai. Prynne, and Baron Victor. Isai. Enoch, whose fiefdom was in the Dukedom of Leo's South County. Although they were smiling as well, it was more like a happy and complacent smile after achieving their goal. This smile was even filled with pleasure.

Kant fixed his gaze on the three world barons at a glance. Their smiles were incompatible with the smiles of all the world barons and gods.

At this moment, a God wearing a moon-white noble robe and a moon-white divine crown on his head spoke, he stood on his milky-white divine personality and said, "Dear Baron Kant, We are here to inform you that there are no other matters regarding the reactivation of the agreement between the world nobles and the gods."

"Just for this?" Kant frowned slightly. The world will Isai had already been notified. These world barons and gods actually appeared together and informed him once again.

"Yes, Baron Kant. Your strength is worth it for us to do this!" the god continued, "We need to explain it to you because, in a short time, a God and two world barons have already fallen in the main plane. To avoid unnecessary disputes that would lead to the death of any world barons or Gods, we have agreed to activate the 'agreement between the world nobles and the gods'."

Kant rubbed his nose. Didn't this god and the two world barons die in his hands?

"Okay, I understand!" Kant said calmly.

"In that case, we'll take our leave!" Except for the three world barons of the Dukedom of Leo, all the world barons and gods disappeared in an instant. Kant just found it funny that the reason why all the world barons and gods were here as they were probably afraid that Kant would hold a grudge against them if they didn't show up. As for the sincere smile on their faces, it was just a formalized smile. For a moment, Kant felt that although the world nobles and gods were high and mighty, they were no different from ordinary mortals except that they were stronger and lived longer.

"Why don't the three of you leave? Do you need me for anything else?" Kant asked the three world barons from the Dukedom of Leo's South County. He had an unceasing relationship with these three people. At this moment, Kant had cast them aside because of the sudden change in the Nahrin Desert. When the matter in the Nahrin Desert was over, he would definitely grind the bones of these three world barons into ashes.

Kant's beliefs were, if a person respected him, he would do the same. If a person punched him, he would return ten punches.

The five world barons of the Dukedom of Leo had repeatedly tried to take Kant's life. Kant had already killed two of them, so naturally, he would not let these three go.

At this time, the three world barons laughed together. Their laughter was extremely joyful. "Baron Kant, are you surprised that you are suddenly unable to use the power of the rules of war?"

Chapter 618: The Restriction Agreement is in Effect

Then, the three of them pointed their fingers at themselves. "We did it! Under our initiative, the 'World Noble and Divine Power Restriction Agreement' was reactivated."

After the three of them finished speaking, they looked at Kant with bright smiles on their faces, hoping to see Kant's angry look. They thought that they should leave a souvenir before they left the World of Isai's main plane.

However, Kant did not fulfill their wishes. Instead, he grinned at them and said, "Then I have to thank you!"

Afterward, Kant ignored the three people who wanted to find a sense of presence in him and directly withdrew from the perspective of the rules. He did not want to waste precious time fighting with them. He only needed to kill them when he had the opportunity in the future.

There were two sides to every matter.

Kant didn't say that on purpose to refute the three world noble families. In fact, Kant had gradually figured it out. The reactivation of the "World Noble and Divine Power Restriction Agreement" was a good thing for him instead.

He had already figured out that the system also had a limit. This limitation was related to the strength of the army. The system could only give him a 6-level troop class at most. However, the strength of the army that the system helped him to upgrade belonged to Kant.

Above level 6 was the level of the world nobles and the gods. At this level, he had to rely on the world.

Only by relying on the rules of the world could he have the power of the world nobles and the gods. Moreover, Kant still did not know whether this power belonged to him or not. Although this power was powerful, it was obviously restricted by the world.

For example, this time, it actually silently restricted his power of the rules of war. It could be seen that at least the power of the world noble was not completely his. Otherwise, even if it was the world's will, it still could not restrict the power that completely belonged to himself.

Kant was transported. Although he had grown up in this world, he did not have a warm and beautiful childhood. He was more like a bystander, silently enduring the suffering that this foreign world had inflicted on him since he was young. He was so sensitive that he did not even dare to directly expose his system.

In this foreign world, Kant was extremely insecure.

Therefore, after the world nobles betrayed him, he would rather pay several times the price to establish a Caradia Empire that completely belonged to him, from the Kingdom of Swadia, from the Kingdom of Nords, from Khergit Khanate, from the Kingdom of Vaegirs, and all the people who were completely loyal to Kant from the world of riding and chopping filled his Caradia Empire. He did not even allow any of the natives of this world to join his estate, because Kant could not determine their loyalty. If they were loyal today, they might betray him tomorrow for various reasons.

And the sudden appearance of the "World Noble and Divine Power Restriction Agreement" had obviously stimulated Kant's most sensitive nerve, which was the sense of security over his own power. If one's own power could be taken away by the world's will at any time, what was the use of such power?

Kant knew that the world's will in this world was divided into two parts, conscious and unconscious. And it was dominated by the part that had its own consciousness. It could be seen from the fact that this world was named after Isai. If one day, the world will Isai suddenly wanted to kill Kant, it only needed to suddenly restrict his use of the power of rules when he was fighting against a powerful enemy, right?

Such a situation suddenly entered Kant's mind when he saw the silver-gray sphere-shaped world will Isai from the perspective of rules. Therefore, Kant sincerely thanked the three world barons, even though it was useless because Kant's killing intent towards them did not weaken at all.

The morning sun slowly rose over the Nahrin Desert. Although it was still early in the morning, the temperature of the Nahrin Desert began to rise rapidly. The army that Kant had been waiting for began to gradually gather at the Stone Pass. Even Rolf from the South County had rushed over. At this time, only the troops from the East County that had invaded too deeply were still on their way. However, the speed of their galloping made them extremely fast. They would arrive in another one or two hours, these one or two hours were enough for the troops that had arrived earlier to take a short break and recover their energy and stamina.

"Report!" Suddenly, a fast horse came towards Kant. Kant turned his head and saw that it was a Swadian royal knight, Dunde. Kant had left him in the former residence of Baron Dylan to receive the news. If the mages received any important information, Dunde would rush to Kant and report to him.

Kant frowned. At this moment, Dunde was riding his fast horse. It seemed that the news was serious. At this critical moment, Kant did not want any bad news to delay him from supporting Drondheim.

In an instant, many speculations flooded Kant's mind. The three world noble families of South County suddenly sent troops to sweep the South County — Kant had just made them suffer; the upper noble families suddenly reneged, unwilling to leave their homes again, and even started a rebellion — Kant's large-scale deployment of troops could not be hidden at all, it was easy for the sensitive noble families to guess that Kant was in trouble; Countess Agatha of East County had suddenly reneged on her promise and no longer left, wanting to take back the Dukedom of Leo from Kant's hands — Kant had accidentally found out, Countess Agatha was not an ordinary person at all, but a god's agent on the Earth. It was unknown whether her real body had any relationship with the Cameron family. It must be known that a god who could have a representative must have a divine kingdom. In other words, Countess Agatha's true form was higher than the fifty or so gods that Kant had seen from the perspective of the rules today.

All of these speculations were likely to happen and were directly ignored by Kant. This was because Drondheim was his foundation and his home in this world. He had to save it.

The Swadian royal knight, Dunde, sped up and rushed in front of Kant. Seeing that Kant's expression was calm, how could he know that Kant was imagining things.

Dunde dismounted his horse and bowed respectfully to Kant, he opened his mouth and said, "Lord, just twenty minutes ago, the teleportation passage leading to the demiplane of their fiefdom in the four noble castles in the South County suddenly closed and disappeared without a trace."

Kant let out a sigh of relief when he heard Dunde's words. The news that Dunde brought was not any of his guesses. Although this news was also important, it did not have much effect on the current situation.

Chapter 619: The Mission to Establish an Empire

"All the demiplane teleportation channels have been closed and disappeared without a trace? Is it only the four families? Is the demiplane teleportation channel in Lion Fort still intact?" Kant asked.

"Lord, Lion Fort didn't send any relevant news. They just reported some ordinary news on time," Dunde answered respectfully.

"If there is no news, then everything is fine! I got it, you can leave now! Go back to the Baron's mansion in Stone Pass and wait for the news."

"Yes, Lord!"

Dunde quickly mounted his warhorse and left.

This news did not waver Kant, because it had nothing to do with the current situation. Kant continued to stare at the depths of the Nahrin Desert, quietly waiting for the arrival of the remaining soldiers.

At this moment, a few lines of words suddenly popped up in his vision, and at the same time, he heard a ding.

"Ding… after an arduous battle, the main quest has been completed."

"Main quest: 'The beginning of the road of the emperor, the beginning of the conquest' has been completed."

"Reward: 1,000,000 Denar, 1,000,000 Reputation, 100 Honor Points."

"Comment: The strength of the Dukedom of Leo has exceeded the system's expectations, causing the host to experience difficulties. Special Reward: Exclusive Building, 'Absolute Estate'."

Kant was overjoyed. It was not because of the completion of the main quest. The reward of the main quest was no longer in his eyes. What made Kant happy was that the system had resumed its normal operation. This meant that he could use battle to grow stronger. The key was that the cycle was extremely short, and the type 3 and type 4 soldiers that were trained from the East County would be able to gain enough experience to level up.

At the same time, a golden card appeared in Kant's mind. On the card, there was only a circle, which was strange. It did not look like an estate at all.

"System, show me the properties of this building, 'Absolute Estate'."

"Absolute estate: an estate with a radius of 10 kilometers designated by the host. Circle it and turn it into an absolute estate that belongs solely to the host. In an absolute estate, the host can isolate the world will's detection. This absolute estate does not exist in the world will's eyes at all."

Kant looked at the attributes of this absolute estate and suddenly felt his hair stand on end. A chill ran through his heart. Could it be that he had always been under the surveillance of the world will?

After the system "digested" this time, what information did it receive that gave him such a reward? Didn't that mean that the system was already on guard against the world will just like him?

"Ding… Main Quest issued!"

"Main Quest: Establish an empire!"

"Reward: 1000,000 Denar, 100,000 Reputation, 100 Honor Points"

"Description: The host is requested to officially establish an empire, establish the country's name, at the same time establish the ruling system, and promulgate the empire's constitution. Also, confirm the country's flag, determine the territory's scope, and determine the troop class to gather the people's will."

When Kant finished reading the main quest of the system, the caption on his retina suddenly rolled, and the system actually issued another quest.

"Ding… temporary quest issued!"

"Temporary quest: Side Quest of Strength!"

"Reward: Glory. Sword of the King"

"Description: there has never been an omniscient and omnipotent existence in the world, and this system is no exception. Due to past mistakes, the system guided the host onto a path of power that no one could return to — the path of the world's noble. In order to make up for past mistakes, the system specially gave the host a chance to choose a new path of power. The host is requested to choose whether to change to a new path of power — the path of the commander. This mission is time-limited. The host only needs to decide 'Yes' or 'No' If the host does not choose, the default selection is 'Yes'."

"60"

"59"

Following the appearance of this temporary side quest, a number appeared on Kant's retina at the same time. Every second displayed a change. Obviously, this quest was limited to one minute.

Kant was really shocked this time. The system actually said that he had made a mistake and led him onto a path of power that no one could return to — the path of the world's noble. In Kant's mind, the image of the silver-gray light ball of the world will Isai immediately appeared.

If the path of the world's noble was really a path that could not be returned, Kant could be sure that there must be the existence of the world will Isai at the end of this path. The power of the world's noble came from the rules, and the rules all came from the world will Isai. Kant did not know exactly how strong the world's will was, but he had only vaguely felt it once before. It could only be described as unfathomable. However, the strength of his world's Baron was nothing in front of the world's will. He was like an ant.

Kant had already developed a resistance towards the world's will, and he sincerely thanked the three South County's world nobles for helping him to understand the terrifying power of the world's will through the "World Noble and Divine Power Restriction Agreement". He was willing to endure the power of the world noble families that had been sealed.

And now, the system actually said that this path was wrong, and it was a path of no return. Then Kant's choice was unquestionable. He resolutely gave up on the path of the world noble families, even if the world noble families could live forever, the power of the world noble families far surpassed the power of a Grand Knight at the peak level.

Kant believed in the system because the system was originally one with him. If he lived, the system would exist. If he died, the system would also be finished.

The system's loyalty to him did not need to be constant. Based on this alone, the system would not want anything to happen to Kant.

This so-called temporary side quest could be said to be the system giving Kant a chance to change the path of power and break free from the path of the world's noble. However, from another perspective, wasn't the system saving itself? In this world, the thing that didn't want anything to happen to Kant the most was probably the system.

To this end, the system even specially created a so-called time-limited quest. As long as Kant didn't choose, it would mean that he had decided to change the path of power.

"Yes!" Kant made his choice without hesitation.

The moment Kant made his choice, a heart-wrenching pain spread from Kant's body. This pain came from every part of the body — because all parts of the body didn't lack the circulation of blood. That's right, this pain came from the deepest part of Kant's bloodline, and Kant's real name came from the real name of the rules of the world. It was integrated into the deepest part of Kant's bloodline.

"Ah!" Kant could not help but roar angrily, but he could not faint because the pain had already exceeded the limit and was continuous.

"No need to worry!" Kant assured while he was experiencing intense pain when he saw the surrounding Swadian royal knights frantically pulling out their swords while he was painfully roaring.

Chapter 620: Submission of the Goshawks

For half an hour, the pain that came from the depths of his bloodline assaulted him like an endless tide.

In the end, Kant's eyes spat out a large number of pitch-black data chains. These data chains were mixed with an extremely complicated crimson pattern. Kant understood that it was his real name — Isai. Lannister Tolia, which was a part of the rules of war. To be able to absorb the power of the rules of war from these chains, this was the source of the power of the world's noble families.

"Kacha!"

Suddenly, a large number of pitch-black data chains that had already been spat out from Kant's eyes broke apart. Following that, the dark red real name was enveloped and exploded. Kant was shocked to see an incomparably terrifying data stream. They continued to wash away the dark red real name, knowing that the dark red real name had directly disintegrated into nothingness.

This was the first time Kant had seen the data chain that the system sent out self-destruct, using a form of partial self-destruction to destroy another existence.

At the moment when the real name was completely destroyed by the system's data stream, Kant felt an indescribable sense of ease, as if he had broken free from an invisible chain.

"Ding… temporary side quest completed."

"Ding… the system has entered a state of self-repair. Please wait patiently for the system to complete its repair."

"48:00:00"

"47:59:59"

Kant was speechless. He had thought that the system would finally come in handy after digesting the information, but he did not expect it to be "injured" now. It even set a countdown to repair, a total of 48 hours.

Kant was really curious. After the system digested the guy in the Crown of Darkness, what information did it get that caused it to react so intensely. It was the "Absolute estate" and it did not hesitate to self-destruct a part of itself. Kant understood that the form of the system's existence was the data chain.

Chirp chirp chirp chirp.

Suddenly, in the sky, six goshawks cried out in dissatisfaction. They circled around Kant.

Kant could still communicate with their minds. He understood that the six goshawks were shouting, "Give me strength! Give me strength!"

These six goshawks were cute.

Unfortunately, Kant was no longer a noble of the world. His real name was directly extracted from the depths of his bloodline by the system. Without his real name, he would be unable to continuously absorb the power of the rules of war from the rules of war. He would also be unable to continuously provide strength to the six goshawks. The six goshawks had submitted to him because of power. At this moment, he could not give them power. Perhaps they would betray him.

However, Kant could not bear to retaliate against the upcoming betrayal of the six goshawks.

Because they were simple and direct. These six goshawks did not owe Kant anything. At the moment of submission, they had obtained the power they wanted, and they had conscientiously fulfilled any request Kant had given them. At this moment, Kant could no longer satisfy their thirst for power. If they really wanted to argue, Kant had let them down.

"You can go. I have lost my real name, and I can no longer provide you with the power of the rules of war. I can no longer allow you to maintain the power of a peak Grand Knight," Kant said softly to the six goshawks in his mind.

Chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp.

The six goshawks kept circling around. When they heard the words in Kant's mind, their cries became anxious. The six goshawks seemed to be quarreling at this moment.

Chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp.

After about three minutes of each other's cries, the six goshawks were divided into two teams, one team with three goshawks.

One of the teams flew directly to the south. They came from the South County territory, which was their home. Obviously, they were going home. Kant's connection with their minds was also rapidly fading, which meant that they had quickly broken away from their status of submitting to Kant — one could imagine how neat and decisive they were.

After flying south for a while, the three goshawks suddenly flew north and back to Kant. They circled over Kant's head for a while, chirping for a while, then flew south again, this time for real.

The other three goshawks, however, were circling over Kant's head. Kant was connected to their minds, which meant that after Kant lost his position as the world's noble, they chose to continue to submit to Kant, even if Kant could no longer provide them with power at this time.

They did not cry out to show their love, nor did they tell Kant through their minds how unjust the departure of the other three was, thus complementing how rare and difficult it was for them to stay together. They just silently hovered above Kant, just like in the past.

These three goshawks were, after all, just three big birds. They were simple, direct, and childish.

"Those three goshawks just now, what did they call out before they left?" Kant asked the three goshawks who chose to stay behind and continue to serve him in his mind. The three other goshawks had already severed their mental connection with Kant, so Kant did not know what they had said when they returned.

Birds spoke bird language. Kant did not understand, but their own kind did.

"They said, 'we're leaving, remember to come and play with us when you go to the south.'"

"Oh," Kant replied with a smile.

Of the three goshawks that stayed behind, the first goshawk that submitted to Kant was still among them. Kant understood that these three goshawks did not submit to him for power and he did not know why. However, he had a strange feeling that these three goshawks would never leave after submitting to him.

"From now on, the two of you are called Greeny and Blacky."

Kant said to the two goshawks that did not have names. The two goshawks immediately began to chirp happily.

"My name is Greeny! My name is Greeny!"

"My name is Blacky! My name is Blacky!"

Blitz was also unwilling to be lonely and chirped along.

"My name is Blitz! My name is Blitz!"

The wings of the goshawks were greenish-black, so Kant named the two goshawks based on those colors.

Although the goshawks were very simple, they were happy to have their own names. This was because they also understood that the existence of a name meant that they were unique and different. This was something that all living beings who could think yearned for.

Kant felt the four extraordinary powers lurking deep within his body, he muttered to himself in surprise, "I thought that after my real name was stripped away, my Power of War would disappear and it would still exist. But now, I'm really a Grand Knight and not an Extraordinary Knight. I don't know if the new path of power given by the system, the path of the commander, will be able to become an Extraordinary Knight. If it's possible, I hope that the power will belong to me."

Chapter 621: The Expedition Continued

"Lord, all the troops have arrived at the Stone Pass!" a soldier reported to Kant.

Kant raised his head and looked at the sky. The sky was clear and the sun was shining. It was already ten in the morning. If they wanted to reach Drondheim before tomorrow, time would be very tight. After all, marching in the desert was much slower than marching on the well-paved roads in the Dukedom of Leo.

In the desert, it was hard to build a road. Even if it was built, after a sandstorm, the road might be buried under the sand or blown away.

Kant nodded at the soldier, "Return to your team!"

"Yes, Lord," the soldier replied respectfully, before turning around and returning to his team.

Kant led his guards and returned to the Stone Pass. He organized his troops and prepared to set off.

There were many troops, and they came from all over the place. Aaron, Veluca, Jerkela, Sargoth, and the City of Lion's Heart. In addition, most of the Swadian royal knights and Sarleon Lion Knight who were trained as administrators scattered in Kant's estate were also transferred. There were also many troops that Kant would not use unless it was a critical moment. After all, his strength was too strong, and he did not need to put all his troops on the table. At this moment, they gathered at the Stone Pass, waiting for Kant's follow-up orders.

Four generals were summoned by Kant — Rolf, Baheshtur, Firentis, and James.

At this moment, there were many troops gathered at the Stone Pass.

There were 1,500 Swadian royal knights, 1,500 Sarleon Lion Knights, a total of 3,000 6-level troop classes. These were equivalent to the troop class of the world's peak Grand Knights and were personally led by Kant.

Next was the heavy cavalry. There were 3,000 Sarrandian Mamluk, 5,000 Swadian Knights, and 7,000 Sarleon Lion Knights. Each of them was a 5-level troop class. Just the 5-level troop class heavy cavalries alone had a total of 15,000 soldiers.

There was 10,000 Sarrandian Horseman from the 4-level troop class and 20,000 of them from the Swadian Heavy Calvary. There were 30,000 men in the 4-level troop class.

Finally, there was the light cavalry. There were 6,000 desert bandits in the 3-level troop class. There were 4,000 elite desert bandits in the 3-level to 4-level troop class. There were a total of 10,000 light cavalries.

For these 55,000 cavalries, Kant appointed Rolf as their commander-in-chief.

After appointing the commander-in-chief of the cavalry, it was followed by the commander-in-chief of the infantry. Kant appointed Firentis as the commander-in-chief of the infantry.

The number of infantrymen was much more than that of the cavalries.

Kant had two types of 5-level troop class infantrymen, the Swadian Sergeants, and Rhodok sergeants. Among them, there were 20,000 Swadian sergeants and only 10,000 Rhodok sergeants. However, Rhodok sergeants' combat strength was much stronger than the Swadian Sergeants. In terms of cavalry, the strongest 6-level troop class in the continent of Caradia, the Nord Royal Guards, one of the Nord Royal Guards could deal with four Swadian sergeants, but two of Rhodok sergeants would definitely win against one of the Nord Royal Guards.

There were also two 4-level troop class infantrymen, the Swadian Infantry and Rhodok veteran spearman. Among them, there were 20,000 Swadian infantry and 10,000 Rhodok veteran spearman.

There were 30,000 Swadian Footman and 10,000 Rhodok Trained Spearman at the 3-level troop class.

A total of 100,000 infantry were gathered at the Stone Pass.

After the infantry were the archers. Kant had three types of archers.

The Vaegir Marksman, the Ravenstern Rangers, and the Rhodok sniper each had 3,000 level-5 archers.

There were 5,000 level-4 archers in each of the three categories, Virgil archers, Ravenstern wardens, and Rhodok veteran crossbowmen.

There were 5,000 level-3 archers in each of the three categories, Virgil Skirmisher, Ravenstern Archer, and Rhodok Trained Crossbowman.

There were a total of 39,000 long-range archers, and their long-range firepower was extremely terrifying. These long-range forces were assigned to Baheshtur by Kant, making him the commander of the crossbow unit.

Finally, it was Kant's mage unit. There were 2,000 Enfath Empire Mages and 5,000 Enfath Empire Apprentice Mages. There were a total of 7,000 spell casters. Their power on the battlefield was absolutely terrifying.

These 7,000 spell casters were assigned by Kant to James, making him the commander of the spell caster army.

Kant looked at the orderly soldiers in the Stone Pass, and a sense of pride emerged in his heart. He had built these armies from scratch, slowly accumulating them bit by bit. It was not until more than a year ago when he settled down to develop his estate, and his wealth rapidly increased, that his troops exploded in numbers. The number and quality of the army showed a spurt of growth. It could be said that all of Kant's resources had been invested into the cause of the violent soldiers. That was almost all of Kant's current military strength.

Of course, the various large cities needed to leave a portion of their troops behind to defend themselves. As for the other troops that weren't suitable for desert battles, Kant didn't let them gather here. For example, the water bandits of Sargoth weren't sent here.

After organizing the troops, Kant stood on the high platform and activated his extraordinary power. He said to all the generals and soldiers in a clear voice, "Generals! Commanders! Soldiers! I am Kant, your Lord! Hello!"

All the generals, commanders, and soldiers were immediately energized when they heard Kant's voice. They revealed a respectful expression and replied loudly, "Hello, my Lord!"

Their voices shook the sky, and even the swaying white clouds were scattered.

Kant smiled, and his voice became gentle and it spread throughout the entire place. "I know that everyone received my urgent order yesterday. The starry night and the bumpy journey must have tire everyone. The soldiers who arrived at the Stone Pass earlier only rested for a few hours and have not fully recovered."

Then, Kant's voice became excited. "But our homeland, Drondheim, is about to be invaded by Jackalans and Lizardmen. They are a large and powerful force. Can we sit back and watch our homeland being invaded, our people being killed, and witness Drondheim being destroyed?"

"No!"

"No!"

"No!"

All the generals, commanders, and soldiers shouted at the same time.

"Then should we support Drondheim as soon as possible, protect our homeland, and kill those detestable invaders?"

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

The emotions of the generals and soldiers were stirred up by Kant. Kant struck while the iron was hot and ordered loudly, "All soldiers, listen up. Set off now and head to Drondheim to support our fellow soldiers!"

The mighty army set off. From the Stone Pass, they entered the Nahrin Desert and headed straight for Drondheim's large-scale fortress.

All the soldiers were riding horses, and there were mages constantly casting group acceleration, so their speed was very fast.

Chapter 622: The Direction of the Death Desert

In the depths of the Nahrin Desert, 200 kilometers north of the Drondheim large fortress, the Jackalans from the Kingdom of Grey Mane and the Lizardmen from the Kingdom of Lizardmen were used as coolies to dig the sand.

Only a few thousand death knights were patrolling around them. It was unknown why the millions of Jackalans and Lizardmen would allow these thousands of death knights to do whatever they wanted.

However, every time the death knights patrolled a place, the Jackalans and Lizardmen would look at the death knights with fear and humility in their eyes.

The Kingdom of Grey Mane and the Kingdom of Lizardmen were sworn enemies. The two kingdoms had been fighting for thousands of years on the land of the Mannheim Coast. The relationship between the two kingdoms was very bad. In both kingdoms, there was a tradition of exchanging the heads of the people of the other kingdom for merits.

However, in the depths of the Nahrin Desert, there was not much friction between the Jackalans and the Lizardmen who were digging the sand next to each other. Their eyes were filled with numbness, and there was not a hint of hope.

At this moment, even the Kingdom of Grey Mane and the Kingdom of Lizardmen were gone. They had turned into a huge and terrifying Sky Veil of Death. All the Jackalans and Lizardmen who did not express their submission to the death knights immediately died. The reason why these Jackalans and Lizardmen were still alive was that they had chosen to become the slaves of the death knights.

They were not ordinary slaves, but slaves who were directly controlled by the death knights. Every death knight who patrolled here had contracted hundreds to thousands of Jackalans and Lizardman slaves. Once a death knight was killed, the Jackalan and Lizardmen slaves that he had contracted would also die instantly.

Therefore, just thousands of death knights had full control over these millions of Jackalans and Lizardmen slaves. None of them dared to resist any death knight.

Millions of Jackalan and Lizardmen dug the sand together. They worked very quickly, and soon, an ancient city was unearthed. However, only a corner of this ancient city was dugout. Although there were millions of people, it was nothing compared to the size of a city.

Several death knights gathered together. When they saw a corner of the city that was dug out, they were very excited.

"The Lost City reappeared in the world. This is the most dazzling city in the entire continent tens of thousands of years ago, a city created by Father God! The legends in the clan were right! The Lost City truly exists and it's right here! It's exactly the same!"

"Yes, yes! This is great! According to the legends in the clan, the Lost City had many amazing hidden treasures. Among them, some treasures can allow us to recover from the undead and become normal living beings with flesh and blood."

"That's right. However, to open the Lost City, we need to use the complete sun disc as the key!"

Several death knights looked towards the south together. In the distant south, they could vaguely see a huge fortress city standing in the desert.

In the sky above the fortress city, a huge golden disc was like a small sun, constantly absorbing a huge amount of sunlight, blocking out the scorching and violent sunlight. At the same time, it released a gentle golden radiance and illuminated the entire fortress and the territories around it. Even in the terrifying depths of the Nahrin Desert, it would not be too exposed to the sun. The constant temperature would not exceed 25 degrees, which was extremely suitable for human survival.

"The sun disc!" Several death knights looked at the golden disc, their voices filled with endless joy.

"When the main force of our clan arrives, we will bring the current sun disc and fuse it with the sun disc in that city. At that time, we will be able to recover the complete sun disk!" a death knight said excitedly.

He didn't care about that city at all. Because to obtain the sun disc of that city, they had to occupy that city first.

To the death knights, a small city was nothing. After all, they had already destroyed two kingdoms. The Kingdom of Grey Mane and the Kingdom of Lizardmen were considered powerful. Ordinary Jackalans and Lizardmen had strong bodies. The physical attributes of ordinary Jackalan and Lizardmen could be compared to an official 2-level troop class. With a little training, they could be compared to an official 3-level troop class.

However, the powerful Kingdom of Grey Mane and the Kingdom of Lizardmen were easily destroyed by the terrifying Sky Veil of Death. As soon as the Sky Veil of Death appeared, the endless power of death corroded all the living beings, causing their flesh to peel off and turn into white bones. Finally, they turned undead and became the power in their hands.

There were three kingdoms on the Mannheim Coast. The Kingdom of Grey Mane, the Kingdom of Lizardmen, and the Elf Republic. If not for the fact that several powerful trees of life in the Elf Republic resisted the Sky Veil of Death, all the kingdoms on the Mannheim Coast would have been directly destroyed by them with the Sky Veil of Death.

Therefore, the death knights simply turned a blind eye to that city in the south. This was the opinion of all the death knights.

In fact, they came here for the Lost City. Coincidentally, they were heading towards Drondheim, which led Kant to misunderstand. However, this misunderstanding was not a misunderstanding because the death knights would attack Drondheim in the end. However, their goal was not to revenge Kant, but for the sun disc.

"Continue digging. Dig out the entire Lost City and clear the yellow sand inside at the same time! All of you supervise your slaves!"

A death knight gathered all the death knights and issued an order. Obviously, this death knight's identity was higher than the other death knights.

On the road leading from the Stone Pass to Drondheim, Kant led an army of more than two hundred thousand and steadily advanced. Because they were marching in the desert, even with the mages constantly casting group acceleration, their speed was not particularly fast.

Kant did not use any means to forcefully raise the morale of the soldiers. Therefore, many of the soldiers who were exhausted fell asleep on their horses and continued to move forward with their horses.

In Drondheim, Bunduk had occasionally sent out scouts to understand the enemy's form in detail. Whenever there was a major movement from the enemy, it would fall into Bunduk's eyes, then he would send people to pass this information to Kant.

"What? The enemy has stopped in the depths of the Nahrin Desert? They are digging in the depths of the desert?" When Kant received this information, he was delighted.

"Pass the order, slow down the speed of the entire army and advance slowly." Kant did this to make the soldiers who immediately dozed off or even fell into a shallow sleep more comfortable.

Since the enemy troops had stopped, they had more time and could be more relaxed.

Chapter 623: The Convergence of the Sky Veil of Death

After spending more than two days, Kant led all the soldiers to Drondheim.

Drondheim was already a large city. It was designed to accommodate tens of thousands of civilians and also accommodate 210,000 troops if they had to squeeze and that would be quite crowded.

In the Council Hall of Drondheim, a high-level meeting was being held.

Kant sat on the main seat. The five generals were divided into left and right. Bunduk was the first to sit on Kant's right. This was Drondheim, and Bunduk was the person-in-charge of Drondheim appointed by Kant.

"Bunduk, have all the civilians of Drondheim been evacuated?" This was Kant's first question. Every civilian was a reserve troop class with unlimited potential that Kant cherished.

Bunduk replied, "Lord, according to your instructions, all of them have been evacuated. I arranged for them to go to Aaron. Thirty thousand civilians were not a heavy burden for Aaron. Moreover, I have already settled this matter with James and he has also sent his adjutant to receive them."

Kant nodded slightly. The path from the Stone Pass to Drondheim and the path from Drondheim to Aaron were both in the Nahrin Desert, but they were two different paths. It was not surprising that Kant did not meet any civilians of Drondheim who might have set off early.

As the saying goes, before the army moves, the provisions go first.

This time, to support Drondheim, Kant gave the most urgent military order. The army only brought dry rations for the road, and they did not bring more with them.

As for rations, they were the lifeline of the army. Without sufficient rations, it was impossible to fight a long battle. This time, the enemy had a huge number, and it was very likely that they would need to fight a long battle.

"Bunduk, how long can Drondheim's grain supply the 210,000 troops for?" Kant's expression was very serious.

"Lord, the grain reserves in Drondheim are based on the two-year rations for 100,000 people, so it can supply the 210,000 troops for almost a year." Drondheim was a city, and the grain reserves were the most important, Bunduk was obviously very familiar with this. As soon as Kant asked, he answered without thinking.

"Great!" Kant was pleasantly surprised. Ever since the territory had been greatly expanded, Kant only cared about controlling the general direction. He no longer had to worry about his own territory, so he didn't know how much grain Drondheim had in reserve, before asking, Kant had even given the order to gather grain if there was too little. Drondheim had only garrisoned 5,000 soldiers before.

The army was sufficient, and the grain reserves were also sufficient. With the elite level of the system soldiers, it was not an exaggeration for Kant to say that Drondheim was as strong as a rock. So what if there were a million enemy soldiers? Facing Drondheim, who was high in the city and had sufficient troops to defend, what did they have to fear?

"It's just a pity that there are towns and fields outside of the city!" Kant thought regretfully.

In the past year, Drondheim could not help but be promoted to a large city. Outside of Drondheim, there were still many towns. After several topographic changes, the oasis lookout had been expanded many times by Kant, there were many fertile fields outside the city. These fields were planted with wheat, achnatherum, date palm tree, and other crops, as well as many breeding farms.

When the siege war was about to happen, Kant would definitely want to clear the wilderness. He would rather destroy these things than let them benefit the enemy. However, the Jackalans and Lizardmen armies seemed to have become desert miners as they had been digging in the desert. The spies belonging to Kant's forces had already discovered that they had dug out an ancient city.

This made Kant somewhat surprised. He even thought that the target of the Jackalans and Lizardmen armies was not his Drondheim, but the ancient city buried under the Nahrin Desert.

However, whether it was his Drondheim, the target of the Jackalans and Lizardmen armies, or the ancient city that they had dug out, the number of Jackalans and Lizardmen armies appeared at Kant's door, he could only send an army that was sufficient to defend against the enemy's attack to defend Drondheim.

After Kant asked Bunduk a few key questions, the high-level meeting was considered over.

Then, Kant gave the order to disband the meeting. "Alright, this meeting is over. Bunduk, continue to monitor the movements of the Jackalans and the Lizardmen. The rest of you, go and rest well!"

Rolf, Firentis, Baheshtur, and James all mobilized and led their troops to the Stone Pass as soon as they received their orders. Then, they set off from the Stone Pass without stopping and arrived at Drondheim, during this period, they did not have a good rest at all.

However, Kant was the most tired one.

After a series of battles, he did not have a moment to rest. He ran through the night and set off from the Lion Fort at night. He arrived at the Stone Pass before sunrise at ten in the morning. After that, the other soldiers all went to rest, but Kant did not rest at all. Drondheim's situation at that time was extremely dangerous that he could not even sleep.

At this time, he had been traveling in the desert for two days and one night. Kant was no longer a noble of the world, so his body was no longer able to ignore fatigue like a world noble.

On the Mannheim Coast, there were a total of three kingdoms. The Kingdom of Grey Mane, the Kingdom of Lizardmen, and the Elf Republic.

The three kingdoms were adjacent to the Nahrin Desert in the south, and the stormy sea of Mannheim in the north. They were lined up on the belt of land. From the west to the east, there were the Kingdom of Lizardmen, the Kingdom of Grey Mane, and the Elf Republic. At this moment, the Kingdom of Lizardmen and the Kingdom of Grey Mane were already enveloped by the Sky Veil of Death. There was not a single living person in the entire kingdom.

The Sky Veil of Death was created by the undead that was the descendants of the Sun God. It had extremely strong infectivity. Compared to the Sky Veil of Death that Kant had dealt with previously, this Sky Veil of Death was not only much bigger, but the death energy was also much denser, the infectivity was even stronger. The Jackalans and Lizardmen who were digging the sand in the Nahrin Desert saw that the situation was not right and surrendered to the undead before the Sky Veil of Death enveloped them. They became their slaves and survived. The rest of the population of the two countries had all turned into tall skeleton soldiers.

At this moment, the Sky Veil of Death that enveloped the Kingdom of Grey Mane and the Kingdom of Lizardmen had almost all gathered in the Kingdom of Grey Mane. At the same time, it was making an all-out invasion to the east.

In the far east was the Elf Republic. The Elf Republic had already lost a small part of its territory. The Sky Veil of Death had invaded the depths of the kingdom, turning thousands of elves into slender skeleton soldiers, that had become accomplices to the invasion of their former home.

However, the trend of the Sky Veil of Death extending into the depths of the Elf Republic had been suppressed by the Elf Republic.

Chapter 624: The worries of the Elf Kingdom

In the sky above their kingdom, brilliant green light with a rich aura of life was like a tidal wave. Wave after wave of green light crashed into the death sky, causing the death sky to be unable to advance any further. It was blocked in mid-air.

Below the intersection of the death sky and the green sea of light, countless elves were engaged in a bloody battle. Their opponents were the huge number of skeletons, skeleton archers, skeleton mages, and the death knights who were the rulers. Every death knight was a legitimate descendant of the Sun God. They had returned from the endless darkness more than a year ago, waking up on this familiar yet strange land.

The once prosperous empire had collapsed and had turned into the Nahrin Desert. What they could not bear was that the land that had not turned into a desert near the ocean of storms was actually occupied by despicable foreign tribes. Foreign tribes whose status was even lower than their former servants. They carried great anger and turned the anger of being betrayed by the Pope of the Sun God cult into a butcher's knife. They unceremoniously landed on the three countries on the Mannheim Coast.

However, it was clear that the first two opponents were as weak as they had expected, and were destroyed by them easily. Most of the time, they were waiting for the awakening of their own race. Every time one of them woke up, the Sky Veil of Death would become thicker. At this time, all of the Sun God's descendants had woken up and the Sky Veil of Death had reached its strongest state.

However, they were still blocked by the Elf Republic. This made the proud Sun God's descendants very angry. Under the Sky Veil of Death, the skeleton army was like a tidal wave that attacked the elven line of defense. Some of these skeletons were humans that they had once ruled over. Most of them were tall Jackalan skeletons and Lizardmen skeletons. Under the control of the death knights, they attacked the elves crazily.

The elves of the Elf Republic were an immortal race. Under normal circumstances, an elf could live for tens of thousands of years. However, in this world, there were two sides to everything. As an immortal race, the elves' long lifespan corresponded to their terrifyingly low fertility rate. Usually, a couple of elves would take thousands of years to give birth to a small elf. The population of the entire Elf Kingdom was extremely small, with a total population of just over 300,000.

The elves' archery was only average when it came to dealing with skeletons. Therefore, although the Elf Republic had more than ten trees of life that released the light of life to block the Sky Veil of Death released by the death knights, the elves themselves were unable to block the skeleton army from advancing.

The tree of life was very tall and majestic. Compared to ordinary trees, they were like elephants and ants. On each tree of life, an Elf City was built. The Elven Palace was built directly on the tallest tree of life.

At this moment, in the Elven Palace, the Elf Queen had gathered all the archons to discuss the countermeasures against the invading descendants of the Sun God. However, all the elves were extremely silent. It was obvious that the Elf Queen and the archons did not have any good solutions in the face of the onslaught of the skeleton soldiers.

"Your Majesty, I thought that the best way to deal with the skeletons is to use the cavalries to charge at them. If that isn't enough we can use the infantry to fight them head-on. The last resort, which is the most inferior method is to use archers to fight the enemy."

One of the elven archons took the lead to speak up and gave his opinion.

Another elf immediately said in a targeted manner, "Your Majesty, what Casper Brown Bear said is all nonsense. Our entire Elf Republic only has 500 cavalries, and they are archers. Furthermore, our elves' weak constitution is not suitable to become infantry. We are only good at archery and magic. I propose to gather all the elven mages and form an elven mage group to use magic to deal with the skeletons. This will be much more effective than archers shooting arrows."

The Elf Queen's eyes lit up when she heard the noble elf's words, then, her eyes dimmed. "Dear Arrod Brightmoon, your words are very reasonable, but we can not mobilize the mages to form an army to go to the front line. If not for all the mages working together to help the tree of life, the tree of life alone might not be able to deal with the enemy's Sky Veil of Death. If the enemy's Sky Veil of Death spreads over, the consequences will be unimaginable."

As soon as the Elf Queen spoke, the elven archon named Arrod Brightmoon said, "Your Majesty, you are the most thoughtful."

The elven archons knew that once the Sky Veil of Death attacked, the elves would not be able to resist the invasion of the Sky Veil of Death at all. They would be stripped of their flesh and turned into skeletons. Even though the skeleton army had the absolute advantage over the elven army, they could not advance any further because the light of life released by the tree of life was able to resist the Sky Veil of Death. If the skeletons dared to step into the range of the light of life, they would also feel as if they had suffered a terrible curse. They would become weak and could be easily killed by the elves.

After a short discussion, all the elves became silent again. The Elf Republic only had so much power. In fact, the Elf Empire was doing very well at the moment.

The three kingdoms had almost divided the Mannheim Coast equally. From this point, it could be seen that the strength of the three kingdoms was not much different. The Kingdom of Grey Mane and the Kingdom of Lizardmen had been easily destroyed by the death legion. The fact that the Elf Republic could hold on meant that the targeted measures taken by them were pretty good. The reason why they were at a disadvantage was entirely due to the difference in the strength of the soldiers.

At this moment, an archon said, "Your Majesty, I once crossed the Nahrin Desert hundreds of years ago. On the other side of the Nahrin Desert, there are many powerful human countries. I think we can ask the human countries for help. I think it is possible to persuade the human countries to send their troops to help us."

The Elf Queen heard the archon's words and could not help but be interested. "Oh? Chris, is what you said true? Humans are a greedy and despicable race. How could they cross the Nahrin Desert, which is very dangerous, to support us?"

The archon named Chris said, "The humans are indeed greedy and despicable, but the humans are also very smart. If they knew how terrifying the Sky Veil of Death was, and if they knew that the person in charge of this terrifying Sky Veil of Death was a descendant of the Sun God who had been betrayed by them, they would realize that if our Elf Republic was destroyed, they would be the next to suffer. Therefore, I am confident that I can convince the human countries to send reinforcements."

Chapter 625: Glory, Sword of the King

When Kant woke up from his sleep, the system notification sounded.

More than 48 hours had passed, and the system had finished repairing it.

"Ding… your temporary side quest has been completed."

"Temporary side quest: 'Power's Choice' completed."

"Reward acquired: Glory. Sword of the King."

"Comment: Your choice is very bold. Congratulations, you have not been deceived by the power on the surface. There was no difference in the path of strength. They all had a common end. However, the path of strength that was used as bait by people with evil intentions would cause people to sink into oblivion. In the end, they would only walk towards the end and destruction. All their efforts would vanish into thin air."

Kant looked at the dense text on his retina, especially the mission comment given by the system. Although the system did not give any names, Kant knew very well that the system was talking about the world will Isai of this world.

At this moment, countless pitch-black data chains extended out from his eyes and wound around the Sword of the King that Kant had placed aside. After a short moment, the Sword of the King suddenly exploded with an eternal and boundless aura, it was unsealed by the system's data chains. It was as if someone had wiped the dust off the originally sealed sword, and it once again blossomed with a dazzling and peerless edge.

The system's data flow retreated again and hid in the depths of Kant's eyes. Kant also quickly checked the attributes of this freshly-made "Glory. Sword of the King". As for the "Glory. Sword of the King" that the system rewarded, it was the Sword of the King that he already had, and it had long been within his expectations. After all, the name of the reward was right there.

Moreover, the Sword of the King was obviously not an ordinary sharp sword. Kant had once wielded the Sword of the King and directly cut the world baron's armor made entirely of abyssal magic iron into two halves. If it was an ordinary sharp sword, the blade would have been rolled up long ago, but there was no trace of damage on the Sword of the King at all.

At this moment, dense words appeared on Kant's retina again.

"Glory. Sword of the King."

"One of the 'glory' components of the extraordinary set that can pierce through eternity and fall into the void, weapon."

"This is a peerless sword made from the core of a star and the aura of a supreme king. It has the power to cut through everything. It has lived through time and is immortal. It has fallen into the void and is undamaged. However, a long time has caused it to lose a large portion of its power. Although its essence is still noble and eternal, it does not have much power left."

"Special effect — 1. Sharpness: this sword has a peerless edge. As long as enough power is applied, it is enough to cut through everything. 2. King's Aura: this sword contains a powerful aura of looking. When activated, it can create an extremely strong deterrent to people. It can cause enemies to lose the will to resist in an instant and have the intention to submit. 3. Justice: this sword contains the power of justice. When joining the battle against the evil faction, direct troops will receive a 200% boost. 4. Troop class: this sword can advance to a 6-level troop class. For every 1,000 reputation points and 5,000 denar, it can bestow a 5-level troop class to a 6-level troop class. According to the different troop classes, the troop class that will be promoted will also be different. 5. Glory: voluntarily displays the eternal and noble King's glory, causing the bather to be eternally loyal until death. This special effect is the ultimate special effect of the extraordinary set 'Glory'. You must wear all the 'Glory' components before it can be activated."

"Remark: During the long period of time, Glory. Sword of the King has already lost almost all of its power. Through absorbing the extraordinary power, it can be upgraded and gradually recover its former power."

After comparison, the current "Glory. Sword of the King" did not lose the attributes it had when it was the Sword of the King, and it had been greatly enhanced. The original Sword of the King only had two special effects, justice and conferment. Now, there were five special effects. It added three special effects, sharpness, aura, and glory. Among them, the conferment was replaced by troop class, but the types of special effects were the same.

Most importantly, the powerful troop class special effect had greatly enhanced the previous special effect. The former Sword of the King could only confer a Swadian knight into a Swadian royal knight, but now this restriction had disappeared, it seemed that any troop class could be strengthened, from a 5-level troop class to a 6-level troop class.

Although every time the special effect troop class was used, it would cost 1,000 reputation points and 5,000 denar, but for a 6-level troop class, this amount of consumption was nothing.

At present, due to the war dividend, Kant had obtained an extremely huge amount of wealth. In addition to the increasing income of denar in his own estate, he could still have a surplus after he went out every week to pay the soldiers. At this moment, he had more than 10 million denar on him. When his current trade caravan captain, Manid, brought the golden eagles obtained from this war to the Pander continent to exchange for denar, at that time his balance would reach more than 50 million denar. With so many denar, Kant could confer 10,000 level-6 knights.

However, this special effect did not only require denar but reputation as well. The source of reputation was relatively limited. Other than obtaining it from the system quest, he could only rely on the contribution of the people in the estate. Currently, Kant's estate had more than 4 million people. Each day, they could contribute more than 4,000 reputation points. In other words, 1,000 people could give him a few reputation points every day.

Due to the limitation of reputation points, Kant could only convert a limited number of 6-level troop classes through Glory. Sword of the King.

At this moment, Kant had 200,000 reputation points, which was enough to upgrade 200 5-level troop classes to 6-level troop classes.

Kant naturally did not hesitate. Before he transmigrated, he was very obsessed with riding and hacking games. His favorite kingdom was the Kingdom of Swadia. The cavalry of the Kingdom of Swadia was extremely powerful and could sweep away all enemies. However, his infantry and archers were mediocre, which made Kant feel regretful. Now that the new special effect of the "Glory. Sword of the King" was so powerful, it gave him the passage to upgrade all the 5-level troop class to 6-level troop class, so he naturally had to give it a try.

After thinking for a while, Kant decided to upgrade to a Swadian Sergeant. Because there were three types of archers and Kant didn't develop the Swadian Archers anymore. Kant chose the infantrymen and cavalry as the promotion direction for all the Swadian soldiers.

200 Swadian Sergeants, carrying huge tower shields and wearing heavy plate armor, stood neatly in front of Kant.

Kant held the freshly made "Glory. Sword of the King" in his hand. His heart was filled with anticipation. He planned to test the special effect of this "Glory. Sword of the King" and also wanted to see if the Swadian Sergeants were promoted, what kind of troop class would it be.

Chapter 626: Excavating the Lost City

After all, in the riding and hacking game, the Swadian Sergeant was the highest troop class in the Kingdom of Swadia. In the entire Continent of Caradia, only the Kingdom of Nords had a 6-level troop class — the Nord Royal Guards, everyone called this troop class the Emperor of Nords. One could see how impressive and domineering it was.

To be honest, the Emperor of Nords' troop class was not stronger than the Swadian Sergeant. Kant was full of anticipation for the Swadian Sergeant to advance to a 6-level troop class, and he was confident that they would not lose to Emperor of Nords.

"Special effect 'Strong Soldier', activate!" With a thought, Kant directly activated the special effect of "Glory. Sword of the King".

Streams of golden data chains shot out from "Glory. Sword of the King", instantly enveloping 200 Swadian Sergeants. Within the golden data chains, very quickly, the golden data chains retreated and the level up was completed.

Kant immediately knew the result. The 200 Swadian Sergeants were all promoted to a 6-level troop class, the Swadian Royal Guards. Kant was extremely satisfied with the name of this troop class that was similar to Emperor of Nords'.

The body of the Swadian Sergeant had expanded, becoming taller and stronger. At the same time, the plate armor on their bodies had also become thicker and heavier, and their defensive capabilities had greatly increased. The tower shields on their backs were wider and thicker than the level 5 Swadian Sergeant. The Swadian infantry swords hung on their waists, and the infantry spears in their hands were even more exquisite than the Swadian Sergeant's.

Compared to the Swadian Sergeant, the Swadian Royal Guards were all-rounded. At the same time, their 6-level troop class was slightly different from the cavalry world. In this world, a 6-level troop class was a powerful existence at the Grand Knight level. They all had extraordinary powers, and the Swadian Royal Guards were an exception, their extraordinary powers were the same as the Swadian royal knight — the King's Power.

Reputation points had all been used up. Kant's subordinates had an additional 200 Swadian Royal Guards. This was not a qualitative change for a million-level enemy or Kant, who had over 200,000 troops, however, Kant was elated. He had already fantasized about turning his troop classes into all sorts of level-6 troop classes.

Of course, this was purely Kant's own idea. With the special effect of the "Glory. Sword of the King", its advancement to a 6-level troop class was not faster than the previous Sword of the King bestowing the title of Swadian royal knight. It was just that many more troop classes could be promoted.

A week passed in the blink of an eye.

In the castle of Drondheim, there were 200,000 soldiers gathered, ready for battle. However, the Jackalans and Lizardmen who were 200 kilometers away seemed to be fully devoted to excavating the city, they completely ignored Drondheim, who could be said to be right in front of them.

However, Kant was very annoyed. As long as the Jackalans and Lizardmen did not leave, he could only ensure that the city of Drondheim had enough soldiers to defend it.

Thus, Kant had the intention of taking the initiative to attack the Jackalans and the Lizardmen. However, while he was waiting for the Jackalans and the Lizardmen to attack, he was busy with the main quest, "Build an empire". Although Kant had tacitly agreed that his territory was called the Caradia Empire, he did not officially build an empire. And from the main quest, building an empire was not a simple matter. At least, many things needed to be done.

It was necessary to establish the name of the country, establish the ruling system, establish the flag of the country, calculate the scope of the territory, establish the imperial army, and promulgate the constitution of the empire.

The empire that Kant intended to establish, its name had already been decided. It was called the Caradia Empire. The ruling system adopted by the empire was established by Kant as a centralized feudal empire system, as for the flag of the country, he used the image of a red-bottomed golden lion printed with his family emblem as the flag of the country. The scope of the territory was generally easy to determine, but it required an accurate borderline. This was a meticulous job, Kant had already sent a team to carry out the survey and mapping.

In addition, the imperial army had already taken shape. They were the army gathered in Drondheim. Kant had clearly divided them into Knight Corps, Infantry Corps, Crossbow Corps, and Mage Corps.

Finally, it was time to promulgate the empire's constitution. Kant had mixed in the laws of some dynasties from his previous life. He had removed the superfluous elements and incorporated some of his more unique ideas. The main body of the constitution was basically out. Afterward, Kant gathered the legal talents in the estate and carefully studied the rough constitution. He added some constitutional provisions and amended some parts that were not rigorous. All in all, in about a month, the constitution that belonged to the Caradia Empire would be officially promulgated.

At that time, Kant would be able to fulfill all the prerequisites for establishing the empire, officially announce the establishment of the country, and complete the main quest.

Time flew by, and another week passed.

During this week, Kant collected more and more information about the ancient city that the Jackalans and Lizardmen had excavated. Gradually, Kant found that the city was more and more similar to the legendary Lost City. Kant had once received information about the Lost City from Scholar Hank, so he was quite clear about the structure of the Lost City. It was said that the Lost City was buried with the wealth of everyone, as well as many items with powerful functions.

This made Kant take the initiative to attack the Jackalans and Lizardmen. However, he planned for the Lost City to be dug out before making a move. If that was the case, he would not need to send people to continue digging after the victory.

At the same time, during this week, Kant sent out a large number of scouts to investigate the military strength of the Jackalans and Lizardmen legions in detail, to accumulate conditions for taking the initiative to attack the other side. Kant found that among the Jackalans and Lizardmen legions, the number of death knights was extremely few, but they were indeed the rulers of this army.

Kant knew that those death knights were the descendants of the Sun God. Their former capital city was the Lost City, and it could be said that the Lost City was their former home.

Kant could now basically confirm that the Jackalans and Lizardmen were indeed not coming for him, but the Lost City. Under the command of the death knights, they gradually dug out the former home of the death knights from under the desert.

This was because Kant did not know that the key to the Lost City was the complete sun disc. Otherwise, he would have understood that these death knights, Jackalans, and Lizardmen who seemed to be here for the Lost City would definitely target him.

Chapter 627: In the Blink of an Eye, a Week Had Passed

Time flew by like an arrow, and in the blink of an eye, another week had passed.

It was still the same in Drondheim City, operating in an orderly manner. And in the Nahrin Desert, 200 kilometers away, the Jackalans and Lizardmen's excavation of the Lost City had already reached its end.

Because Kant did not urge and pressure them excessively, the noble families of the South and East County of the Dukedom of Leo left the Leo Empire very calmly. In particular, they took away the civilians in their estate at Kant's request. To Kant, the civilians of this world were just a burden and needed to be driven away. However, to the lords of the South and East County, these civilians were undoubtedly the most precious wealth.

As long as there were civilians, even if a lord was weak, there would be a time for him to rise. In this era of low productivity, the number of people represented the strength of productivity, as well as the rise and fall of national power.

Thus, with Kant's request, the nobles of the South and East Counties were very happy to leave with the civilians. Even the civilians of the noble estate who had died and lost their inheritance were also divided up by these noble families. For example, the three upper-class nobles of the South County who had been destroyed by Grand Duke Cameron through the bloodline curse, the civilians in their estate were also divided up by the greedy upper-class noble families of the South County.

The entire southern half of the South County, as well as the entire East County, became much more desolate after the noble families left with the civilians. It was almost an empty area. In the abandoned castles, there were broken marks everywhere. These were the marks left by the nobles who had plenty of time to remove the expensive inlaid ornaments. Because they had already decided to abandon the castles, their actions were naturally barbaric and rude.

Kant did not stay idle either. Construction teams were sent to the South and East Counties to carry out construction. Most of the reputation points that he had accumulated were spent on accelerating the construction speed, which made the South and East Counties develop very quickly. Refugees from the Continent of Caradia were constantly transported over by the system and recruited by Kant as his subjects.

For this world, the population was the most important wealth and resource. But for Kant, as long as he had enough territory and built a sufficient number of residential buildings, the system would send refugees from the Continent of Caradia so that he could recruit them. It was precisely because of this that he was able to develop the North County of Lion City and half of the South County in a year.

Therefore, Kant only needed to follow the way he developed the North County and half of the South County a year ago. As time passed, he would naturally develop the two large estates that were already empty. After all, whether it was the South or the East Counties, just based on the degree of fertility of their land, they could completely surpass the North County by eighteen streets. If the North County was able to develop abnormally in Kant's hands, then the South and East Counties were even more so.

As time passed, the exploration and mapping teams that Kant had sent out continuously sent news to Drondheim, reporting the boundaries of Kant's current estate that they had explored and mapped. As for Kant's draft constitution, was constantly filled and supplemented by professionals, becoming more and more perfect. In about half a month, the constitution would be completed and successfully promulgated, and the border of Kant's estate, according to the current speed, would also be completed within a month.

This meant that, if nothing unexpected happened, Kant would complete the establishment of the country within a month.

Kant had yet to use the construction pack of the "Absolute Territory". He planned to use it in the capital after the construction of the country. In theory, he would build the capital in Drondheim. However, at this time, Drondheim was still in a war crisis. Kant would only use the construction pack of the "Absolute Territory" after the war crisis had subsided.

Kant valued this "Absolute Territory" very much. From the feedback from the system, this item was also very important.

In the Council Hall of Drondheim, Kant was having a meeting with the various generals and some high-ranking commanders who were gradually promoted, discussing war-related matters.

"Lord, according to your instructions, our army has already made preparations and can set off at any time to launch a war against the Jackalans and Lizardmen," a high-ranking commander reported the situation of the army to Kant loudly.

Kant nodded. He did not know what was going on with the Jackalans and the Lizardmen. They actually turned a blind eye to the scouts he sent out and allowed his scouts to investigate their progress clearly.

At this time, the Lost City was almost completely excavated. Kant had no interest in waiting any longer and planned to take the initiative to launch an attack. He would start moving now. When Kant reached the Lost City, the Jackalans and Lizardmen would have finished digging out the Lost City.

Just as Kant was about to announce the start of the army, a soldier came to report that a death knight had come to visit.

"Only one death knight?" Kant asked.

"Yes, my Lord!" the soldier replied respectfully. Then, he stood quietly on the spot, waiting for Kant's decision to expel, ignore, or summon.

"Everyone, feel free to discuss why the death knight suddenly came to Drondheim," Kant thought for a while and asked the senior commanders of the generals.

He didn't have any idea, but everyone might be able to come up with something. Maybe that general or commander could guess the purpose of the death knight's visit. And knowing the other party's intention, he would be able to deal with it calmly. Of course, this was not the key. Kant's actions had a deeper meaning.

Bunduk was the first to notice the long journey of the Jackalans and Lizardmen. Among Kant's six generals, Manid, who was focused on business and expanding Kant's wealth, and James did not have the experience of leading troops alone. This time, James had become a real general and he was leading a powerful mage army. Among the lords that Kant had summoned, only Bunduk was left.

Bunduk decided to perform well. Therefore, once Kant's question came out, Bunduk immediately spoke up.

"My Lord, I think this death knight must be related to the Lost City. Their Lost City was just about to be excavated, and this death knight came to visit. There might be a relationship between the two."

Kant nodded. "Perhaps, but what is the relationship between the death knight's visit and the Lost City?"

Chapter 628: The Messenger who Delivered the Decree

Bunduk thought for a moment and replied, "With the number of Jackalans and Lizardmen close to a million, it seems that their troop strength is far stronger than Drondheim, who only has a troop strength of over 200,000. The death knight is obviously the ruler of the Jackalans and Lizardmen. They spent so much effort to excavate the Lost City, so they must have a motive. I think they don't want to be intercepted when they are about to harvest. Therefore, I think that this death knight's purpose is to warn Drondheim not to act rashly."

Kant, the generals, and the high-ranking commanders listened to Bunduk's analysis and nodded in agreement. The Jackalans and Lizardmen had come from afar, and the excavation alone had lasted for three weeks and they had paid a huge amount of manpower and material resources. As their rulers, the death knights naturally did not wish for anything to happen at the last moment. There was only one city in the vicinity of Drondheim, and Drondheim had countless soldiers and armors. It was indeed a huge threat.

Moreover, Drondheim's soldiers and horses had already gathered. They were only waiting for Kant's order to attack the north and give the Jackalans and Lizardmen a vicious blow, snatching the Lost City that they had painstakingly dug out.

"Does anyone have any other opinions?" Although Bunduk's words were reasonable, this was still a guess. They couldn't really use this as a fact to deal with it. Otherwise, if they made a mistake, they would be in a very passive position.

At this time, Baheshtur spoke, "Lord, I thought that the Jackalans and Lizardmen troops had completed the excavation of the Lost City at this time. Perhaps they would cast their eyes on our Drondheim. This death knight might be here to spy on Drondheim's strength. As long as we let him in, although this death knight might not be able to spy on us much, we still need to take precautions. The best way is to go to the city gate and communicate with the death knight, to see what he wants to do in Drondheim."

Baheshtur paid great attention to the collection of information. Hence, his starting point was to analyze the purpose of the death knight from the aspect of information. His words were not without reason. The Jackalans and Lizardmen armies were directly exposed in the desert. They did not take any measures to prevent others from spying on them. Their information was completely probed by Kant.

However, the city of Drondheim was deep and vast, and most of the soldiers stayed within the fortress. From the outside, it was impossible to tell just how many soldiers there were within this huge fortress.

Kant listened to Baheshtur's orders, he smiled and said, "When we summon the death knight later, we will cover his eyes and prevent him from secretly spying on us in Drondheim. As for us going to the city gate, he's not that important for us to do that."

Hearing Kant's words, Baheshtur's face flashed with a trace of shame. He only analyzed it from a military point of view, but forgot that if Kant went to the city gate to meet the death knight, it would be the same as personally going out to meet him, with Kant's status as the king, it was obvious that the death knight's identity was not worthy for Kant to do that.

"Alright, Baheshtur, you don't have to worry about him. As a general, there's nothing wrong with thinking from your point of view." Kant saw Baheshtur's expression and comforted him.

"I wonder if the others have any opinions?" Kant looked around. Many generals and high-ranking commanders began to think hard, but they could not think of anything at the moment. However, they were very puzzled. It was just a death knight, did their lord need to be so cautious?

Kant smiled and shook his head slightly. He clapped his hands and said, "Alright, that's it. Mande, bring a few of Swadian Royal Guards to convey my summons and cover his eyes!"

Mande immediately followed the order and left. Kant looked around at his generals and commanders and sighed slightly in his heart. There were always two sides to everything, good and bad. The generals and high-ranking commanders who came from the system were 100% loyal to him and would never betray him. But because of this, Kant's position in their hearts was too high.

Just now, Kant could feel that the question he asked was something that many generals and high-ranking commanders did not think much of. Even Kant himself did not think much of it.

Kant was ready to send out his troops. These Jackalans and Lizardmen did not keep their military information confidential. Kant could be considered to know himself and his enemy. It was natural for him to analyze the strength of the enemy and his allies before sending out his troops. Kant and the generals and high-ranking commanders had discussed the strength of the entire Jackalan and Lizardman armies. In the end, they concluded that as long as the strategy was appropriate, it was completely possible to crush these Jackalan and Lizardman armies.

However, even so, when Kant solemnly proposed to the death knight who had come to visit him alone and used a cautious tone to ask the generals and high commanders to analyze and decide on different countermeasures, all the generals and high commanders actually thought hard and acted according to Kant's wishes. Not a single one of them stood out to refute Kant.

For example, they could actually say that Drondheim was not even afraid of all the Jackalan and Lizardmen armies. Why would they need to treat a death knight so carefully? No matter what he came for, they could just summon him or chase him away. Anyway, unless the other party directly offered the Lost City, no matter what the death knight said, they would not change their intention to attack the Jackalan and Lizardmen armies.

Unfortunately, a general and a senior commander did not raise such an opinion. They almost completely cooperated with Kant's "nonsense". However, this was not all a bad thing. At least it could firmly guarantee Kant's authority. In fact, he did not need to worry that he would influence the thoughts of the soldiers too much. As long as Kant did not pester them and insist on interfering in their decisions, these generals and senior commanders were very stable.

At this time, Mande led a few Swadian royal knights outside of Drondheim City.

A death knight was riding a skeleton horse wrapped in a vest alone, standing outside the gate of Drondheim fortress. Above his head, there was a small patch of dense black cloud, which directly blocked the scorching sun. It made him and the skeleton horse under him completely immersed in the dark clouds filled with yin energy, and they were not exposed to the scorching sun at all.

Mande directly threw the hood onto the death knight's body, and said with a slightly disgusted tone, "Put the hood on yourself. Next, I'll bring you to pay respects to Lord Kant."

The death knight flew into a rage, pulling out a bone sword and directly splitting the hood into pieces, using an insulted tone, he scolded, "Darn servant, how dare you neglect and insult me? Do you know my identity? I am a noble descendant of the Sun God. I am here to deliver an order to your lowly Lord to give me the sun disc to open the Lost City. This is the honor of your Lord! How dare your Lord disobey me. He did not come to meet me on his knees personally to give me the sun disc and even dared to send slaves like you to humiliate me. I will not let this go and I will make you pay the price!"

The death knight's tone was extremely furious and arrogant. In the end, he even directly threatened them.

A fierce glint flashed in the eyes of Mande and a few of the Swadian Royal Guards. All of them drew their longsword. Mande drew his knight's sword while the Swadian Royal Guards drew their infantry swords. Their eyes were filled with fury.

"You detestable skeleton. How dare you insult the Honorable Lord Kant. You are courting death! Everyone, let's kill this skeleton who dares to speak rudely!"

Chapter 629: The Arrival of the Death Knight

Just as both sides drew their weapons and were about to attack, the ancient and heavy city gates of Drondheim opened. A Swadian Royal Guard shuttled under the city gates, raising his arms while riding a horse, and shouted, "Lord Mande, wait! Lord Kant has given an order!" He rushed in front of Mande and a few Swadian Royal Guards.

Mande glared at the death knight in front of him. He pointed his sword and shouted, "If there's anything, let me kill this ungrateful skeleton first before listening!"

"That's the matter, my Lord. Lord Kant has given the order to summon the death knight. There's something important to discuss," the Swadian Royal Guard replied.

Mande glanced at the death knight disdainfully. "Hmph! You're lucky this time. I'll spare your life for now." He turned around and gave the order to the guards, "Men! Remove his weapon and tie him up!"

Two fists were no match for four hands. No matter how resentful the death knight was and how fiercely he resisted, he was still subdued by the crowd. Then, the guards took out a hood to cover his head, tied his hands behind his back, and escorted him to the hall.

"My Lord, the death knight has been brought here."

"Well, you may leave." Mande bowed and respectfully retreated to the side of the hall.

"The death knight has graced us with his presence. Sorry for not welcoming you from afar. Please forgive us for not taking good care of you. May I know the purpose of your visit?" Kant, who was sitting on a high seat, looked down at the "honored guest" standing in the middle of the hall, he leaned back in his chair and asked nonchalantly.

"Bah! You lowly ant, what right do you have to ask me! If you know what's good for you, hurry up and offer the sun disc to me. When I open the Lost City in the future, I might consider leaving you, a lowly commoner, and your darned servants alive!" Even though he was tied up and brought into the palace, the death knight still held his head high and spoke loudly.

"The death knight is indeed worthy of being a noble descendant of the Sun God. Your courage is indeed higher than an ordinary person. However, you mentioned that I am a lord of a region after all. It would not be good for me to be so obedient and give you whatever you want. I think that you are a straightforward person so I will not beat around the bush with you and tell you the truth. Drondheim's troops have long been assembled. Once I give the order, they will charge towards the north. The Lost City that you have worked so hard to obtain will also fall into my hands. At that time, it will not be something that can be solved with just a few words. However, as long as you cooperate well and wait for the dust to settle, what you wanted, I promise you as the Lord of Drondheim. What do you think of this condition?" Kant did not pay attention to the death knight's high-sounding words, instead, he slowly threw out his condition and patiently waited for the other party's reply.

The death knight seemed to have heard a great joke. He sneered and then angrily shouted at Kant, "You are simply dreaming! How dare you dream of obtaining the Lost City! You want me to bow down to you, it is simply ridiculous!"

"Since you want to be punished, then I will not force you. However," Kant finally put away his casual attitude and said seriously, "you may not be able to leave Drondheim today."

"What? You want to kill me to silence me?" The death knight heard Kant's words and raised his voice with a hint of contempt. "Ha, you are indeed a lowly person. A dignified leader that has no credibility to speak of. How dare you treat an external envoy so rudely!"

Kant seemed to turn a deaf ear to the death knight's verbal attack and dug his ears. "Eh, you are wrong. I spoke to you in a gentle voice, but you scolded me and even insulted me verbally. Where is my dignity in front of my subordinates? Please forgive me, I haven't seen such a stupid person for a long time." His tone changed as if he was finally too lazy to keep up with his acting, Kant said with a cold expression, "Men, take the death knight away, lock him up in the prison, and 'treat' the distinguished guest well."

"Darned inferior people, lowly ants! How dare you treat me, the descendant of the Sun God, so rudely? I promise you, you will pay the price for this! Dang it…"

No matter how the death knight struggled, his mournful words echoed in the magnificent palace, knocking on the thick palace walls one after another. There was actually a strange atmosphere.

Kant completely turned a deaf ear to this. Watching the death knight being escorted away, he narrowed his slender eyes and rubbed his left hand unconsciously, pacing back and forth in the same place. "What's wrong?"

Was the death knight's visit just to provoke him and show how stupid he was? No, that's not right. He must be trying to find out about Drondheim. Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you win a hundred battles. But, what method did he use to spread the information?

Then, the young lord sat back on the throne and ordered coldly, "Gather all the commanders to the Council Hall for a discussion."

"Yes, my Lord."

Within a short time after the order was given, the commanders quickly walked into the Council Hall and waited for the Lord's order.

Kant sat on the main seat and the generals sat on his left and right respectively.

"Mande, prepare the resources needed for the battle. Prepare enough fresh food and water to ensure good operation at the back of the battlefield." The soldiers and horses did not move, but the rations went first. Whether it was the general soldiers or the warhorse carriages, they had to eat to survive and to fight. Reserve resources played a crucial role in a war, and it was also an important part that could not be wrong. Hence, Kant paid special attention to this.

"Yes, my Lord." Mande respectfully received the order.

"Bunduk, strengthen the training of the soldiers. Do not relax and prepare for the upcoming battle."

"Yes, my Lord." Bunduk nodded and gave his orders.

Kant immediately turned his head. "Baheshtur, how is the matter of sending the scout soldiers to scout the terrain and the enemy's military deployment?"

"My Lord, everything is ready. We have the general information. I will show it to you later," Baheshtur replied.

"Yes, good. By the way, inform the people in the city about the war. Strengthen the security of the city and maintain stability in case the backyard catches fire," Kant knocked on the table and emphasized. The headquarters was a key role in the war. The soldiers were killing the enemy on the front line, so the backyard must be stable.

"Yes, my Lord."

Kant nodded and then straightened his expression. His eyes became darker. It was as if a storm was coming, rolling in his eyes. He said in a deep voice, "Get ready. In three days, we will march into Lost City!" Kant knew that this decision, whether it was for himself or his main quest, was crucial. This was a grand war that must be won.

Chapter 630: Not a cheap condition

Kant returned to the city. The most important task now was to settle the residents.

Although there were large numbers of undead ambushers in the north, as long as they were handled properly, Kant believed that they could be repelled.

After returning to the main city of Drondheim, Commander Bunduk walked over. His expression was extremely flustered. It could even be said that he was livid.

"Leader Kant." Commander Bunduk bowed respectfully. Commander Bunduk had done a good job with the proper etiquette.

"What is it? Commander Bunduk, you were never this flustered."

Kant frowned. He didn't like his subordinates to act too rashly.

"Leader Kant, the elven colony's Vedia wants to see you. He seems to have come with ill intentions."

"Is that so?" Kant laughed out loud. "What does this messenger of the elven colony want with me?"

Bunduk shook his head. "You have to be careful. Should I add more troops?"

Kant raised a hand, indicating that there was no need for him to do so. The elven colony had always been in a neutral status with them, and this messenger of the elven colony had never done anything to harm him.

In the palace of the main city of Drondheim, the elven messenger's eyebrows were tightly knitted together, as if he was being trapped by something.

"Mr. Messenger, what brings you here today?" Kant still followed the proper etiquette. He also wanted to maintain a good diplomatic relationship with the elven colony.

"Hello, Lord Kant." The elven messenger nodded to Kant very politely, and Kant also nodded back politely.

"There's no need to visit us. I believe that Mr. Messenger must have something important to discuss with us in Drondheim today, right?"

Kant waved his hand and gestured for a few of his subordinates to bring over the Siaki wine, which had just arrived today. This was a good thing for entertaining distinguished guests.

"You guessed right." The messenger laughed out loud. "I followed the Lord's orders and came here to seek your help. As everyone knows, our elven colony has been invaded by the undead for a long time, and a large number of elves have already suffered unspeakably, so I hope that I can obtain your help, Mr. Kant."

"Your suffering is a matter of your country. Why did you come to us for help? Do you think that we have enough troops to fight against the next undead?"

Kant laughed and handed the wine to the messenger, then he continued, "If I remember correctly, your elven colony seems to want to smuggle some elves over to my place? What is this for? To monitor us?"

"Absolutely not!" The elven messenger quickly waved his hand. "Mr. Kant must have misunderstood us. The elves that have been smuggled over are just some civilian organizations. They are definitely not unrelated to the lord. I hope you can understand. We really hope to get your country's help, even if it's just sending out a small army of a thousand people?"

"A thousand people army?" Kant sneered. "Mr. Messenger, aren't you thinking too simply? How about this, you go back and tell your lord that I am willing to help, but not a single cent of the reward can be less."

"Reward?" The messenger looked very confused. He did not know what the reward was?

"You just need to tell your lord the truth. I believe he will definitely know what happens next."

The messenger was naturally troubled by Kant's actions. If he went back just like that, he might be severely punished by the elven commander.

So the messenger continued, "Lord Kant, I would like to take the liberty to ask, what exactly is this reward? If I don't ask clearly, my commander will not forgive me. Please tell me!"

Kant poured the glass of wine in his hand onto the ground. He stood up and looked down at the messenger.

"Mr. Messenger, your request is too much. Although the elven colony has always maintained a good relationship with our country, we will not compromise on the reward."

Kant knew that the elven messenger wanted to extract some information from him and then bargain with him. He wanted to exchange for the help of the Drondheim people at the lowest price. However, this was not a very wise thing to do.

Kant knew that with his current strength, he could fight a serious war with the undead, but the result of the war would cause people to be stranded in other places. Moreover, it was currently the stage where the country's strength was gradually increasing, if the situation worsened, perhaps all the efforts he had put in before would be in vain.

Kant only hoped that his country would have a place in the undead's struggle. It would be a way to protect the allied forces and allow his country to rise steadily in the war, the way to do this was to try to keep Drondheim at a distance from the undead.

But he also knew that once the undead broke through the elven colony, their next target would be Drondheim.

The undead were dead creatures without much intelligence. Once they conquered the elven colony, they would definitely show off their power. At that time, Kant had no idea what would happen to Drondheim.

However, the reward was still an essential part. Moreover, this reward would not be simple. The leader of the elven colony had no choice but to agree to Kant's request.

The elven messenger continued to speak in Kant's ear, "Leader Kant, please believe in the credibility of our elven colony. As long as you inform me of the reward, I will report it to the Lord."

Kant sighed and said, "Since Mr. Messenger cares so much about the remuneration, if I don't tell you, I'm sure you won't let it go. Alright, I will tell you."

When the messenger heard Kant's words, he seemed to have put down a huge stone in his heart. He let out a long breath.

"I'm willing to listen!" the elven messenger said.

"Give one-tenth of the elven colony to Drondheim!"

When Kant said this, he was very calm, as if he was drinking a glass of water. He was so calm that the elven messenger's whole body was trembling.

"Mr. Kant, isn't this request a bit too much?" The elven messenger couldn't accept Kant's excessive request. To him, the reward for dividing the territory was simply too terrifying.

This was not something that a messenger like him could agree to. He had to go back and report it to his lord. But before that, the only thing he could do was to ensure that Lord Kant sent troops smoothly and that the reward was minimal.

Just as the elven messenger was about to speak, Kant spoke first.

"Mr. Messenger, I know what you want to say next, but I advise you not to waste your eloquence. This will only anger me, and I will give up the idea of sending troops to the elven colony to help you. I hope that you can think clearly before you speak."

The elven messenger had nothing to say. He stood rooted to the ground, like a pine tree on a snowy mountain. Was there really no room for negotiations?

If he went back and reported this to their lord, the lord might be furious, and he might be implicated.

"Go back." Kant cut off the conversation.

The elven messenger was obviously disappointed by Kant's words.

But he did not have the right to directly negotiate with Kant, so he could only bid Kant farewell and walk towards the door.

After the elven messenger had completely disappeared, only then did Bunduk say to Kant, "My Lord, if we don't send troops to assist the elven colony, it might cause a fundamental break between the two of us. This would be a huge loss for us. Moreover, from what I see, the elven colony will definitely lose to the undead army this time. If we break through the elven colony, the undead army will march towards our city. If that's the case, our hard-earned national strength might go down the drain!"

Bunduk spoke to Kant with a face full of hope, but how could Kant not know these principles.

He waved his hand and said, "Commander Bunduk, you're still too young. Between the two countries, no matter how dangerous the situation is, it's always about interests. Only interests are eternal friends. If we were the ones in the elven colony today, would they send troops to help us without any reward? This is obviously a very stupid question."

Bunduk was deep in thought. The words that Lord Kant had said to him could obviously provoke him.

What Kant had to do now was to train the soldiers as much as possible.

Although his troop class was diverse, they were complex but not proficient. Kant had obviously seen this problem, so he quickly adjusted himself.

Swadian Sergeant was a troop class that was good with longswords. However, in Drondheim, due to the lack of ores, a large amount of impurities were used in the production of shields. This also resulted in shields that might fail at a critical moment.

Based on his understanding of the undead soldiers, this shield with a defense of at most 90 was obviously unable to withstand a small attack from the undead soldiers. Therefore, Kant now made a condition to the Jackalan city-state.

The Jackalan city-state was also being attacked by the undead at the moment, but compared to the elven colony, this city-state seemed to be more at ease.

Kant summoned a messenger bird and stuffed the maxim into it.

The messenger bird soon flew to the Jackalan city-state.

This group of Jackalans was savage by nature and loved delicious food. After the messenger bird completed its messenger mission, it inevitably became their food.

The king of the Jackalans was slightly dissatisfied when he saw the soldiers running towards the palace in a panic.

He thought that the undead was starting to invade them again. This was a subconscious projection of his. In the past few months, he had been constantly being attacked by the undead.

The city-state of the Jackalans was constantly attacked by the undead. Although it was just some minor attacks that didn't cause much pain, it was obvious that this defense couldn't last for long against this city-state that had been in disrepair for so long.

Chapter 631: Support from Drondheim

The Jackalan King opened Kant's letter to him.

Kant's letter was very concise. His condition was that the Jackalan city-state had to hand over 20 tons of crystal ores. If they handed over twenty tons of crystal ores, Kant had to help them deal with the harassment of the undead in the north.

20 tons of crystal ores. This was the number that the Jackalan city-state could reach in two years.

At this moment, the Jackalan King was extremely irascible. He was clearly not interested in Kant's conditions and was even angry.

At such a critical moment, he actually wanted to get some profit from them.

His deputy, Spock, suddenly entered the palace. He half-kneeled, he said respectfully to the Jackalan King, "Respected Jackalan King, last night, the city-state's west gate was attacked by undead soldiers. I have already sent out craftsmen to repair it. However, if the undead continues to harass us in the next few days, the west gate will be destroyed. King, what should we do?"

The Jackalan King was already having a headache, but Spock's report made it even more troublesome. The arrival of the undead soldiers was much faster than he had expected. What should he do?

He looked at the letter again. It was Kant's letter. His words had come true. What kind of person was this Drondheim's Lord? Why could he see that their city-state was in danger at a glance?

The Jackalan King was silent for a moment. Then, he said to Spock, "Go to Drondheim and lead 100 warriors to transport 20 tons of crystal ores. Leave immediately. Do not delay!"

Deputy Spock was very obedient. He did not even have any doubts and quietly left.

Two days later, outside the city gate of Drondheim, a team of 100 Jackalans transporting ores was parked.

Deputy Spock, shouted at the soldiers on the city gates, "The 20 tons of ores that your lord needs have all been transported. We Jackalans stay true to our words. I hope that you can abide by our word. Tomorrow, you will lead your troops to the Jackalan city-state. If you break your word, our King will definitely lead us to capture Drondheim!"

Baheshtur was standing at the city gate. The commander of the light cavalry nodded slightly, then, he shouted to the people below, "We understand. Drondheim is a country that believes in faith. Please go back and report to your king. We will definitely abide by our agreement. From tomorrow onwards, we will lead our soldiers to help you solve your problems."

Baheshtur did not have the right to agree to their words, but Kant had already given him this right last night, so he answered accordingly.

"I hope you will abide by it!" After saying this, the deputy led a hundred Jackalans back the way they came.

Kant was in the Weapons Manufacturing Camp.

He looked at the 20 tons of crystal ore in the large warehouse. He was already feeling relaxed and happy. He did not expect that the Jackalan King would agree to his request so generously.

The craftsmen of Drondheim were all elite craftsmen. They were a young group of craftsmen formed by a small number of mages.

As long as these 20 tons of crystal ores were all implanted into the shield of the Swadian Sergeant, the shield's defensive ability would reach a terrifying value.

This value was enough for him to use against the undead.

Early the next morning, Kant ordered Captain Swa to lead the Swadian Sergeants to the Jackalan city-state. After all, he still did not want to become enemies with the Jackalan city-state, so he had to abide by his promise.

Soon, Captain Swa led the Swadian Sergeants to the Jackalan city-state.

Although the Jackalan city-state had a superior terrain and was rich in ores all year round, the people were not rich. Compared to Drondheim which was led by Kant, this was like the difference between heaven and earth.

Deputy Spock was responsible for receiving Captain Swa.

They discussed tactics for a moment and soon set up the formation.

The 1,000 Swadian Sergeants were all elite soldiers. Each of them had the strength to fight ten people at once. However, the people they were dealing with were not ordinary soldiers, but undead soldiers with strong magic resistance and defense, this naturally attracted the attention of Captain Swa.

In the evening, the undead soldiers arrived from the north. One mile away from the west gate, Captain Swa led the Swadian Sergeants to take the initiative to attack.

For the undead soldiers, night vision was their advantage. However, it was a disadvantage for the Swadian Sergeants. Therefore, if the sky was slightly brighter, they should take the initiative to attack.

These undead soldiers obviously did not expect the Swadian Sergeants to actually ally with the Jackalan city-state.

Because Kant had just strengthened the power of the shield, the undead soldiers were obviously not their match.

The undead soldiers were not good at attacking, so the shield completely blocked their attack. 1,000 Swadian Sergeants formed a 3-4-5 formation, like a huge iron triangle.

The Jackalan soldiers were mainly at the center of the iron triangle. As long as there was a chance, they would jump out and take the lives of the undead.

The undead were mostly dead creatures without intelligence. They did not care about their dead companions but attacked one after another.

The undead could appear in an endless stream, but they had to leave at dawn. As long as they could survive the dawn and destroy the undead soldiers' base here, then, they would not come looking for trouble with the Jackalan city-state for a short period. This was also the ultimate goal of Captain Swa's trip.

After a night of intense battle, the undead soldiers were finally defeated. However, the corresponding Swadian Sergeants also paid a price. A night of battle caused the Swadian Sergeants to lose over a hundred men and the Jackalan soldiers lost 248 men.

But the price was clearly worth it. The war couldn't be without casualties. For the Swadian Sergeants, this battle was a great victory. They knew the weakness of the undead soldiers, as long as they brought the weakness of the undead soldiers back to Drondheim, then even if there were tens of millions of undead soldiers, Drondheim would have nothing to fear.

Captain Swa led the remaining 869 Swadian Sergeants and began to march north, because last night, the undead soldiers had come from the hills in the north. In other words, the nest of the undead soldiers was very likely in the hills in the north. As long as they explored carefully, even if they could not find the nest of the undead soldiers, it would be a great fortune.

There was a large patch of bamboos on the hills. These bamboos were covered in spots, some red and white, and some black spots even after mutating. The black spots were poisonous bamboos, and there was poison gas left behind by the undead soldiers.

Chapter 632: Elf with ill intentions

As long as he followed the black speckled bamboos, Swa believed that he would definitely be able to find the mystery behind it.

As expected, two hours later, Swa found a cave behind a bamboo forest that could only accommodate one Swadian Sergeant. Outside the cave, there were scattered black substances that looked a little terrifying.

Deputy Spock suggested, "Why don't we let the Jackalan soldiers go first?"

Swa immediately understood Spock's conspiracy. If they let their people go in first, then once they discovered any secrets, they would definitely not want them to reveal anything. They would not even let them go near the cave.

Or, they would sell the information inside to the lord of Drondheim, Kant, at a high price.

These were things that Swa could foresee.

Therefore, he decisively rejected Spock's request.

He said, "Last night, everyone lost some of their forces. Lord, you can see that the undead soldiers are not to be trifled with. Only when our two armies work together can we avoid being attacked by the undead soldiers in this dark cave."

What Swa said was exactly what Deputy Spock wanted.

Deputy Spock naturally knew that the undead soldiers were difficult to deal with. If it was not for the help of the Swadian Sergeants, their entire city might have been attacked by the undead soldiers.

The consequences were simply unimaginable.

With this thought in mind, Deputy Spock readily agreed to Captain Swa's suggestion.

Although the two teams seemed to be very harmonious, when they reached the cave, the two armies seemed to have deliberately spread out.

Each army searched for its own secrets.

After Captain Swa traveled a mile in the cave, he finally found some secrets.

Those undead soldiers were summoned from some unknown substance underground.

As long as the unknown substance was destroyed, the undead soldiers would not be produced.

Captain Swa used the monster shovel to take samples from the unknown substance, which was about ten grams.

Deputy Spock also arrived. After seeing the unknown substance, Deputy Spock asked, "Is this the substance that summoned the undead soldiers?"

"I think so," Captain Swa said softly as if he was afraid that if he spoke too loudly, he would awaken the undead soldiers again.

"I think we should get rid of these unknown substances now!"

"Alright!" Captain Swa replied.

The Jackalan soldiers used the melting potion to drip on the unknown substance. In just an instant, the huge unknown substance seemed to have evaporated in the air.

"I think that in this case, your Jackalan city-state should not be attacked by the undead soldiers for a short time!" Captain Swa said to him with a smile.

"Then my mission is also completed. I will report to the Jackalan King and then retreat to the main city of Drondheim."

"Then I'll have to trouble you." Deputy Spock was quite polite among the barbarians.

Kant quickly received the unknown substance brought back by Captain Swa. To be honest, he was full of curiosity about this substance.

But what he wanted to do more was to find a way to completely defeat the undead soldiers from this small unknown substance.

In this battle against the undead soldiers, as long as the first person to grasp the method to defeat the undead soldiers in one fell swoop, that person would also obtain the best opportunity in this battle, Kant hoped that he would be the one to obtain the first opportunity.

As long as he obtained this opportunity, then his desire to create an empire would be realized soon.

He had a long chat with the management mage head, Kekua.

Kekua had not discovered the secret of this unknown material, but he could accurately tell Kant, "As long as we find the Magic Mirror of Detection, then the research of this unknown material will have a huge breakthrough!"

"Magic Mirror of Detection?" Kant asked.

"The Magic Mirror of Detection requires many raw materials to be made. Although simple gray wolf fur, discovered grass, and Kaori ore are common raw materials, there are still some rare materials, such as snow mountain oil, and lava-colored frames. Magic dragon crystals are all very difficult to find, so it is not a major task that can be completed in a day."

Kekua explained to Kant patiently.

While Kekua and Kant were talking, Bunduk came in hastily.

Bunduk knelt on one knee and said respectfully to Kant, "My Lord, the Elf King requests an audience with you."

"This is getting more and more interesting!" Kant left the manufacturing workshop and came to his palace.

The Elf King seemed to be very angry. When he saw Kant, he found it even harder to control his anger.

"Mr. Kant, I always thought that you were an extremely respected lord, but this time you actually made such a request. This is making things difficult for us!"

The Elf King stood up. The movements of his hands were even richer than his words.

"Elf King, you can reject our request, but you have to know that an outstanding Swadian Sergeant is a priceless treasure. I only want one-tenth of your territory. This is not too much!"

The Elf King became even more furious, he said, "Mr. Kant, as far as I know, you sent troops to the Jackalan city-state to help them before this. Your condition at that time was only 20 tons of crystal ore. How could the reward increase so much when it came to our side? Are you more willing to ally with the barbarians?"

Kant smiled. The Elf King was really quick to get the news.

"Elf King, the two sides are completely different. Can't you see that? Although the Jackalan city-state was attacked by the undead soldiers, they still had the ability to fight back. However, your territory is completely different. You are already exhausted from the battle, and the main attack areas of the undead soldiers are also in your territory. You should know that if I sent out an excellent Swadian Sergeant, they will be in danger of being wiped out. If you don't cooperate with us, you will lose more than one-tenth of your territory. Do you still doubt that?"

The Elf King did not expect Kant to be so eloquent that he could not say a word. However, he was helpless. He was in such a difficult situation that no one could solve it.

The Elf King sighed and continued, "Mr. Kant, is there no room for negotiation at all?"

Kant shook his head. "This is the best offer I can give."

The Elf King gritted his teeth and said, "Fine! I'll give you one-tenth of the territory, but you must send an army of at least a thousand people to support us!"

Chapter 633: A harmonious negotiation

Kant had already organized his words before he met the Elf King, so it was expected that such a situation would occur.

He smiled at the Elf King and said, "Elf King, thank you for your understanding. I will definitely send out the best Swadian Sergeants in Drondheim! They have obtained excellent evolution in their equipment a few days ago. I believe that they will definitely be able to resist the attacks of the undead soldiers. You have no doubt about that!"

"Oh, no, no, no." The Elf King was obviously not very satisfied with Kant's words. He immediately stood up, then, he announced to Kant with a heavy tone, "Lord Kant, I hope that you can send out the Virgil knights. What we lack even more are the vanguard troops that can charge into the front lines!"

"Your Excellency!" Kant's expression became very serious. "Do you want my soldiers to take the lead? So that you can sit at the back and reap the benefits? Isn't that a little unkind?"

Kant looked ahead. The Virgil knights were the sharpest and most core force of the Drondheim city-state. If more than a thousand Virgil knights were sent out, it would cause the attack line of the Drondheim city-state to become very weak, this was not a good omen for Drondheim, which was surrounded by enemies.

He knew how to weigh the pros and cons. Although he was anxious to complete the mission of the system, it was obviously very foolish to sacrifice so many sharpest troops to complete the mission. No one would agree to such a deal!

"Lord Kant, that's not what I meant?" The Elf King might have seen Kant's face gradually turn gloomy, he explained to Kant in a panic, "If you are willing to send out these 1,000 Virgil Knights, our elven colony can even give up 15% of our territory. You must know that with an additional 5% of our territory, how many more Virgil knights can you train? I think you will be the biggest winner in such a deal!"

The Elf King was good at negotiating, and he was more convincing than the last elven messenger.

But what did Kant think?

He did not feel how wonderful the world was for such conditions, but began to wonder what the Elf King's purpose was?

No matter how small a piece of territory was, it was still a part of a country that could not be separated. However, the Elf King's tone was as if he could give up as much as he wanted at any time!

"Elf King, please allow me to think for four hours. You can visit the back garden of our royal palace. I will have a more in-depth meeting with my ministers!"

Kant waved his hand to signal the people around him to lead the Elf King away.

The Elf King stood up, he bowed respectfully to Kant. "Respected Lord Kant, you may carry on your profound discussion, but please try to give me a timely reply within four hours. After all, the elven colonies are still suffering from the flames of war!"

His respectful and sincere attitude almost made Kant forget that he was the leader of a city-state.

What was his intention? Kant really wanted to know, at least now he knew that he would not simply send troops to attack the undead soldiers.

Did the elven colony make other deals with other city-states?

Logically speaking, the Lizardmen city-state should be the first choice for the elven colony.

Kant had never felt such a headache, but he still could not understand the purpose of the elven colony.

In the center of the palace was a ten-meter-long conference table, which was enough to accommodate more than a hundred ministers.

Drondheim was a democratic city-state, and Kant was very willing to accept the speeches of the wise men, so in addition to the ministers appearing in front of the conference table, many wandering wise men were also absorbed by Kant.

After listening to Kant's story, those people fell into deep thought. What on earth was the Elf King willing to pay for such a huge price in exchange for a thousand cavalry?

Commander Spock nodded, indicating to Kant that he wanted to speak.

"Please answer my question, Commander Spock!" Kant smiled at him.

Commander Spock bowed politely and cleared his throat, then he continued, "Lord Kant, I think this may be the elven colony's plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain. They want to transfer the elite troops of Drondheim city-state. Perhaps they have joined forces with other city-states to attack Drondheim!"

Kant nodded at Spock. What Spock said was not without reason. He had also thought of this idea before, but he had rejected it!

"Commander Spock, this is indeed possible!"

Kant first praised Spock's idea, but he continued, "But the elven colonies have long been unable to fend for themselves. I think they have no reason to join forces with other city-states to attack us. They also want our thousand heavy cavalries to continue their lives. If that is really the case, we can withdraw the heavy cavalry. In that case, the elven colony will be destroyed by the undead soldiers in less than three days. Do you think I am right?"

Kant said patiently, and Commander Spock nodded. He downed the wine in front of him, and then said to Kant, "The leader is right, I was thinking too simply!"

Another old city-state man with a white beard to his waist said, "Lord Kant, I think the elven colony may want to merge with our Drondheim. To the territory of the country, to them, it is no longer that important. I believe that if we win this battle, the Elf King will definitely look for you to merge with the elven colony. After all, the elven colony is a colony, and it has not been liberated, so merging with Drondheim is the most effective way. As for the Elf King, I'm afraid he only wants a position!"

The old man's words made Kant think. He had not thought of such a possibility, but in a sense, it was possible.

So should he send troops or not? Kant wavered. He signaled for everyone to vote on it.

There were a total of 132 people who came to the meeting. 83 people agreed to send troops to the elven colony, which was the majority.

Kant believed in the decision of the ministers, which was also the decision in his heart.

Although the number of 1,000 Virgil knights was huge, it was not enough to put Drondheim into a passive situation in an instant. Even if there were any conflicts in the future, Drondheim would be able to hold on until the return of this powerful cavalry.

Kant had already made his decision. He met with the Elf King in the back garden.

The Elf King was looking at the goldfish in the pond. Those were not ordinary goldfish.

Chapter 634: The Elf Had no Way Out

"Those are the ice goldfish in the Snow Mountain Lake!"

Kant walked up from behind the Elf King. He held a handful of fish feed in his hand and poured all of it into the lake.

"Their lives are very tenacious. Even the extremely low temperature that ordinary people can not endure is nothing for the ice goldfish!"

Kant smiled at the Elf King.

The Elf King nodded slightly at Kant and said, "Thank you, Lord Kant, for your comfort. It has been a long time since the elven colony has seen such a fish swimming freely in the lake. I had led my people down."

Kant said, "Your Excellency, congratulations. You have successfully convinced me. I agree to cooperate with the elven colony!"

"That's great!" The Elf King revealed a silly smile and continued, "Thank you for your help."

"But there is a condition!"

Kant paused for a moment and then said, "That is, I can only send an army of 500 Virgil knights."

"What?" The Elf King clearly did not expect such a situation. "Lord Kant, isn't this too hasty? Although I believe in the strength of the Virgil knights, an army of only 500 people would definitely not be able to resist the undead soldiers!"

Kant had already made a plan in his heart and he continued to say, "Elf King, you should not be too depressed. Although I said that I would only send out 500 Virgil knights, I will also send out another one thousand Swadian Sergeants. I believe that after my modifications, the strength of the Swadian Sergeants has improved by leaps and bounds. Moreover, without the help of the Virgil knights, this one thousand-man army will be able to stop the undead soldiers!"

Kant confidently explained to the Elf King. Although the Elf King's expression now showed complete disbelief, it was the truth. His Swadian Sergeants definitely had the strength to fight to the death against the undead soldiers, this could be seen in the defensive battle of the Jackalan city-state.

After being modified, the Swadian Sergeants could even traverse the entire map without an army that could match them.

But there were still many territories that Kant had yet to discover on the map.

This world was even much larger than the world of the sirens.

The elf's eyes instantly lit up. He clearly did not expect that Lord Kant would actually give him such an additional surprise. This was simply beyond his imagination.

"Lord Kant, I really can not understand why you have made such a huge change?" the Elf King asked sincerely.

"I feel that you are a good lord who loves his people, which is why you made such a decision." Kant's answer was meticulous and did not allow any doubt.

"Thank you for your praise. Although I love my people, I am not a good king. There are many things that I have not done well. I also hope that I can get more guidance from Lord Kant in the future!"

As soon as he said this, Kant had already guessed most of it. The elven colony had indeed planned to merge with the Drondheim city-state. They even wanted to hand over the entire elven colony to Kant to manage, but was this really good?

According to Kant's knowledge, the elven colony had never accepted outsiders as their managers since ancient times. Even if it was just a small storekeeper, the elven colony's people would not let a foreigner be their manager.

If they wanted to merge, it seemed like they would be unanimously opposed by the people of the elven colony. Could it be that the Elf King had not expected such a situation?

No, he could definitely imagine it, but why did he continue to do so?

Such doubts formed in Kant's mind, but it was not convenient for him to ask. After all, such a question seemed stupid and impolite.

"Elf King, since I have promised you, you can go back and wait for the reinforcements to come. They will definitely bring you a special surprise!"

"I am looking forward to it!" the Elf King said expectantly.

Kant did intend to do so. Although the elven colony's terrain was very ordinary, it was still a territory that everyone was eyeing covetously.

The reason why the undead soldiers had set their sights on the elven colony as their primary target was clearly because of their own reasons.

The Head Knight of the Virgil Knights was Pam. He was a good commander who was very responsible.

Kant found Pam and he came to his palace the next day.

Pam bowed respectfully to Kant and offered the knight etiquette that only knights would use.

"Lord Kant, we will definitely complete the mission and return successfully. Please rest assured."

Pam finished the glass of Kafel red wine in front of him in one gulp to announce his determination.

Kant looked at Pam respectfully. In this battle, if he was not careful, Pam might be sacrificed on the battlefield. This was certainly not the outcome Kant wanted to see.

However, the undead soldiers were extremely fierce. On the northern border, no army could compare to the undead soldiers.

The undead soldiers in the Jackalan city-state were only a few. There would be ten times more undead soldiers in the elven colony.

With such a large number of undead soldiers, Kant was obviously not confident that he could help the elven colony win.

At noon that day, Pam led 500 Virgil cavalries and more than a thousand Swadian Sergeants.

The majority of the Swadian Sergeants were people who had fought off the undead soldiers in the Jackalan city-state, so they volunteered to go to the elven colony.

Their original plan was to arrive at the elven colony before nightfall, but they did not expect to encounter the undead soldiers in the north when they just entered Deyama City.

Swede was the captain of this team of Swadian Sergeant. He had already spotted the undead soldiers in front, so he immediately returned to the camp to report.

"Commander Pam, we've spotted the undead soldiers that are two miles ahead."

It was already dusk, and they would be able to reach the elven colony in an hour. However, they had not expected to encounter the undead soldiers in advance when they were halfway down the road, this was clearly not what Pam had expected.

However, everything was still under control.

Pam ordered, "All soldiers, follow me and advance!"

Pam's organizational ability was quite outstanding, and all the soldiers listened to him. Upon hearing such an order, all of them became spirited.

The undead soldiers were still approaching, and Pam was already ready to be the vanguard.

Chapter 635: The Undead that Arrived Ahead of Time

Swede led more than 100 people to the left of the undead soldiers. Right in front of them was Pam's organization attack.

Soon, the two armies began to battle.

Although the undead soldiers were powerful and had astonishing strength, time was their weakness. As long as they could hold on for one night, these undead soldiers would be like clay chickens and dogs.

Under Pam's order, more than 200 cavalries moved forward in a regular manner.

Their goal was not to exterminate the undead soldiers but to stall the undead soldiers as much as possible. Without the help of the elves, it would be difficult for them to defeat the undead soldiers.

This well-trained Knights Corps was charging forward fearlessly. Nothing in front of them seemed to be able to stop them.

An undead soldier was biting his huge lips and nibbling at Commander Pam's neck. Pam had already seen through his intentions. He raised the lance in his hand and held his breath tightly, only by holding his breath could he truly focus his consciousness. Pam's lance finally pierced into the undead soldier's throat.

Although the undead soldier was stubborn, the brain of any living creature was always the most crucial component. As an excellent commander of the Knights Corps, Pam naturally knew such a rule, so he raised his gun again, he then stabbed the throat of the next undead soldier.

The aura of this undead soldier was much weaker than that of the previous undead soldier.

Pam thought to himself that these undead soldiers also had some level relations. Could it be that one of these undead soldiers also had a commander who was in charge of commanding all of this?

This thought was obviously believable. Another undead soldier with a very large body once again approached Pam.

Pam's horse was frightened. Although Pam was well-trained and was quite adept at controlling horses, this horse was clearly not used to fighting against undead soldiers.

It raised its two hooves and looked extremely flustered.

Because the smell of the undead soldiers was rotten and terrifying, this horse was obviously afraid of the stench that it retreated!

Pam was shocked, but because of his powerful fighting qualities, he immediately regained his calm demeanor.

He said to himself in his heart, "You are the most powerful commander of the knights, you must not be defeated. As long as you are defeated, all your soldiers will be disappointed. They will give up this battle, and even Lord Kant will lose confidence in himself!"

This kind of psychological hint was very useful.

Pam was now full of confidence, and the marksmanship in his hands began to become easier.

Although the undead soldier had a huge body, the neck was still his fatal weakness.

The originally swift and fierce undead soldier seemed to have turned into a slow-motion replay in front of him.

It became slower and slower until finally, Pam found that even his breathing had started to slow down. Even time was starting to slow down, and only his will was still moving very quickly.

He dodged the attack of the huge undead soldier!

He jumped down from the horse, and the horse was quickly cut into two halves by the huge ax of the undead soldier.

All the knights looked in the direction of their respected Head Knight in shock.

If anything happened to the Head Knight, their ending would be disastrous.

But fortunately, they did not see the side that they imagined.

Although Pam was standing on the ground, he still held his gun.

He was now like an immovable giant, and something strange seemed to have happened to him.

The huge undead soldier saw that Pam was not injured by his attack and was already furious, then he raised the broadsword with both hands.

The broadsword was stained with a large amount of blood. One drop, two drops fell to the ground.

The air had been torn apart. The broadsword was only a fist's distance away from Pam's head. However, just when everyone thought that Head Knight Pam would die a glorious death, he moved.

His movements were fluid and smooth, without a hint of sloppiness. His movements were even more crisp and neat, even the knights who had trained with him for a long time did not know that Pam actually had such strength.

This was the strength of a Holy Knight!

It was the super strength that stood under the Sun's radiance!

The Holy Knight, Pam, held the lance in his hand. His movements were swift and fierce. If there was anyone in the world who could move as fast as Commander Pam, it should be Lord Kant.

The undead soldier also realized that he was in a disadvantageous situation. He wanted to retreat from behind but Pam was faster than him. His lance blocked the undead soldier's final retreat. The undead soldier was already in despair, it had become a real undead under Pam's attack.

Pam let out a long breath, like a peerless expert who had retreated into the forest. His eyes seemed to be filled with stars. When the knights saw that their commander had completely changed, they also became excited.

The battle continued.

However, Pam stopped to think. The undead soldiers just now clearly did not want to hide, but weren't they strange dead creatures that only knew how to move forward? Why would they want to escape?

Could it be that the giant undead had already gained the intelligence of a human?

Such a thought was very scary. Even Pam was scared to the point of breaking out in a cold sweat. If such a powerful undead soldier had intelligence, then it was obvious that they were at a disadvantage in this large-scale battle.

The sky gradually darkened, and the black crows in the forest scattered in all directions from their nests in shock.

"Commander Pam! The reinforcements from the elven colony have arrived!" Captain Swede reported respectfully to Commander Pam.

After the battle just now, Captain Swede had witnessed Commander Pam's strength with his own eyes. He was like an incomparably sharp knife, piercing straight into the opponent's heart. As long as Commander Pam was here, then they would definitely win this battle!

This was something that Captain Swede was very sure of.

Pam nodded. His current strength was already extremely close to Commander Bunduk's. Commander Bunduk was someone that he had wanted to catch up to all his life. This evolution was simply a pleasant surprise for Pam, such a pleasant surprise would only be encountered by someone as talented and intelligent as him.

The elven colony had sent a team of 100 people. They were all good at medical treatment, which was a good thing for Pam.

"I think you should know the current situation, right?"

Chapter 636: A Unified Plan of Attack

Commander Pam held a brief meeting and more than 100 people gathered.

Most of them were the elven colony's reinforcements.

In terms of strength alone, Pam was the only one who had the strength to say this.

"As long as Commander Pam says it, even if it's a mountain of daggers and seas of flame, our elven colony's soldiers will be extremely respectful!" an old elf wearing a green felt hat said.

He was the only five-star elf among the volunteer soldiers. He had very strong healing abilities and could even heal groups. The remaining ten were also medical soldiers, but most of them could only treat one to three people at a time.

Apart from these medical soldiers, some magic attack elves were responsible for the magic output of the rear defensive line.

Among them, the highest level was a four-star elf.

And most of these elves only knew how to use some fireball spells or the Tier-1 skills of ice sealing spells.

Although they were all low-level skills, they were always effective against undead soldiers with fireball spells and ice sealing spells.

The highest level four-star elves could even cast advanced fireball spells, which could cause large-scale casualties to the enemy.

As the rear defensive line, they were indeed the only reliable partner.

The organization was very fast, and the battle situation did not allow them to do anything sloppy.

Soon, the thousand-man army was organized.

The hundred-man knight corps led by Pam, and the Swadian Sergeants were on the right. They were all the elites among the elites, while the elves were placed at the rear defensive line, and the medical elves intersected between the knight corps and the Swadian Sergeants.

The simple coordination trained their tacit understanding. Soon, this temporarily formed army gained a close tacit understanding. They were fast and agile, and they could quickly open up the enemy's rear.

The number of undead soldiers did not decrease but increased because after midnight, it was time for the undead soldiers to move at high speed.

Everyone looked at Commander Pam with hopeful eyes. At this time, Commander Pam was already full of glory.

With his order, all the troops moved away. They spread out according to the rules of the formation. This was also to minimize the number of casualties.

They succeeded. Although a small number of undead soldiers already had the consciousness to escape, those were still very few in number. Most of them were like those dead creatures who didn't know life or death.

They were biting crazily, thinking that they would be able to take care of everything. They treated everyone like dirt, but they did not know that they were real dirt.

They were very tenacious, but at the same time, they were also very weak. They did not breathe, and they did not need air, so this space could not accommodate them.

One after another, the undead soldiers fell into the exquisite traps that Pam had set up and none of them could avoid it.

Even if some of the undead soldiers who had the intention to escape wanted to retreat, they were restricted by the elves' fireballs or ice-sealing spells.

They could only be killed by the cavalries.

This might be a little cruel, but this was war. War would not be merciful to anyone.

Perhaps to the undead soldiers, these cavalries were the real bad guys.

They were born to eat humans and invade. This was their nature. They maintained their nature, but they were brutally killed. This was something they could not understand.

The night passed quietly. No one would mention the war here in the future. Because of the invasion of the undead soldiers, this place had long been deserted.

The Sun in the east was slowly rising like a savior.

This Sun was no longer the savior of the Virgil knights but the saviors of the undead soldiers!

When the undead soldiers saw the Sun, they retreated one after another. Because of this, they were saved.

The outstanding leadership of Pam made the five-star old elf excited.

"Commander Pam, you are too outstanding as a Head Knight!"

"Thank you for your praise." Pam was not proud, because compared to the great leader Kant, his meager skills were like a child shouting and fighting with an adult.

"I believe that under your leadership, our elven colony will usher in the first victory. This will be a war of incomparable honor. For you, for all of Drondheim, it will be an extremely great honor!"

The fawner elf's praises were very pleasant to the ears. All the elves were very good at praising others. They were not stingy with their words of praise, or what they learned in their schools was how to praise others.

Soon, the army led by Pam advanced into the elven colony. In this colony, there were fireworks everywhere.

Was this still the elven paradise that was once beautiful?

Pam frowned slightly. The undead soldiers were the common enemy of everyone.

Look, the once beautiful city-state was now in ruins. Under the ruins, countless crying souls could be heard. They were not willing to die just like that.

Pam paid a visit to the Elf King and explained to him the main process of fighting against the undead soldiers that day.

Pam did not put too much emphasis on describing how great he was. He tried his best to explain how brave his soldiers were. If he did not have such soldiers, he might have died in the war immediately.

The five-star old Elf obviously liked Leader Pam very much. He praised Commander Pam with his pen and ink, and he praised the Elf King for how valiant Leader Pam was, he even said that Leader Pam had an even more outstanding leadership ability than Leader Bunduk.

Pam wasn't arrogant, because he knew very well at all times that proud soldiers would only meet with countless failures. That was why he would never be proud. Pride was what losers should do.

When night fell, Pam finally saw the horror of the undead soldiers. They bared their fangs and brandished their claws. They were bloodthirsty but they were not without any redeeming qualities.

Because they were still a little organized, and they worked closely together. Pam himself might have found it strange. Why would he praise such a ferocious enemy, and not his soldiers?

But the truth was these undead soldiers were disciplined. If his knights could be organized like this, they could roam this vast world, because there was no need to worry about who would run away in the face of battle.

They were not afraid of death, so they were more united.

The Elf King had sent over a thousand elves to participate in this war.

If they could not defend tonight, then in less than two days, the elven colony would be invaded by these inhumane undead soldiers.

Chapter 637: Knights Who Were Utterly Defeated

There were so many cute children and so many lonely old people here. If Pam lost, this group of old people and children would bleed to death in the war, it would be terrifying.

Although he was used to seeing blood and death, he could not bear the death of weak people. Weak people could always arouse people's sympathy.

"Knights, for the honor of our country, for the honor of Drondheim, we should be fearless of blood and we should charge forward!"

Even the Elf King was shocked by the powerful leadership of Pam. He heard Pam's oath. He seemed to know why the elven colony could only be a colony, but Drondheim could gradually become a powerful city-state, what their colonies lacked was people like Pam.

Only such a powerful and fearless leader could lead the elves to reclaim their own land.

Pam led more than a thousand soldiers to fight against the ferocious undead soldiers at the vanguard. He was not afraid of being attacked by the undead behind him. He trusted every single one of Drondheim's soldiers behind him, just like how they trusted him enough.

After all, trust was mutual!

Soon, they were intertwined with the undead soldiers. They were very powerful, but the undead soldiers were also very powerful. Because of the magnetic field, it seemed that the undead soldiers on this side were even more powerful than the undead soldiers they encountered the night before.

Pam soon realized this.

The situation was quite disadvantageous to him and this wasn't a joke. As long as he did not handle it properly, the entire team would be defeated!

Finally, a knight fell. His horse did not defend him against the fatal blow of the undead soldiers. That machete was extremely sharp, even though it looked like a blunt weapon.

The knight was cut in half from head to toe. It was like a cabbage being cut in half by the undead soldiers. This could not help but make people suck in a breath of cold air. Shock and terror intertwined in their hearts.

This was such a terrifying attack. Don't underestimate these undead soldiers.

Pam didn't have the mood to mourn for the cavalry that he was proud of. He could only say this to himself in his heart.

He constantly reminded himself to be strong and tenacious. Only when he was strong could the entire team be like a shield, and only then could they discover the weakness of the undead soldiers.

Then, the second cavalry had fallen as well. Blood was still flowing from his mouth, and his eyes were wide open. Even before he died, he was very unwilling.

The third, the fourth, then ten, twenty of them. He looked at the knights who persisted one after another but were still defeated. They were his trusted subordinates.

Pam could not mourn for them. He did not even know their names. Where did they live? Did anyone need to be taken care of at home?

The war was cruel. Pam only hoped that the elves in the elven colony wouldn't suffer such pain.

This was probably the biggest gain he had since joining this battle.

"Change the formation!"

Pam quickly came up with a strategy. The formation from the previous night was no longer enough to resist such a large and powerful undead soldier. This would only cause more knights to fall. In the end, he might really be the only one left.

He used an offensive triangular formation. The vanguard was set up with ten people. As soon as one of the ten people fell, the people behind would immediately replace them.

This was the same as the formation operated by the Jackalan city-state.

Sure enough, the new formation was a great success.

By reducing the number of attackers and increasing the number of defenders, they could effectively resist casualties.

There were also many talents in the elven colony. They were not only good at fireball spells, but also setting up traps.

Once the undead soldiers fell into a trap, they were like lambs waiting to be slaughtered.

After all, the undead soldiers' jumping ability was very weak.

This was one of the pieces of information that Pam had obtained so far.

However, the undead soldiers that followed broke Pam's understanding of them.

Those creatures with super-strong jumping abilities were charging towards them from afar.

Some of them could even jump onto a tree which was simply terrifying. Could it be that there were different types of undead soldiers?

Having this thought, Pam's heart trembled.

When they were discussing the countermeasures, they completely ignored this possibility. They thought that the undead soldiers' jumping ability was one of their fatal weaknesses. However, they did not expect that their only fatal weakness was now gone.

This was a huge blow to the knight corps, and it was also a huge error in Pam's judgment!

"Retreat! Retreat!" Pam immediately gave the order. If they did not retreat now, their entire knight corps would be wiped out.

These undead soldiers who could jump were obviously much stronger than the previous batch of ordinary undead soldiers who only knew how to grab machetes and rampage.

Pam could smell a few dangerous smells on their bodies.

This kind of smell could even kill them.

The undead soldiers with the ability to jump slowly approached. The elves at the back were trying to hold them off so that the knight corps could retreat smoothly.

However, they had obviously forgotten about the mobility of these undead soldiers. Although the fireball spell could restrict their direction of movement, these undead soldiers seemed to have suddenly gained a level up in intelligence. They had learned to dodge!

A terrible misconception arose in Pam's mind. He felt that he would lose miserably in this battle. That's right, these undead soldiers were ridiculously strong, not to mention their extremely strong jumping abilities.

Looking at the knights in front of him one after another collapsing like a mountain, Pam's heart was covered with a layer of huge black fog.

A mistake in judgment!

He blamed himself countless times in his heart. He should have noticed the abnormal behavior of these undead soldiers a long time ago, but he was still confident. Although he had always reminded himself not to be proud, he was actually already proud, so he lost his ability to observe. Although he had evolved into a Holy Knight, he still lost.

Another knight that he recognized fell in front of him. He had a mother who was close to 100 years old in the family. His mother had been a widow all her life. This child was picked up by her at the beach, so his name was Sea.

However, he was dead. He lay in front of Pam in a terrible state. However, Pam could do nothing about it because he found himself in deep danger. Hundreds of undead soldiers had blocked his way, although the lance in his hand could fight against hundreds of undead soldiers, he panicked in the face of such dangerous undead soldiers.

Although he kept reminding himself to be calm, the death of his companions was a huge blow to him.

Seeing that half of his army had been destroyed by the jumping undead soldiers yet he couldn't defend them at all. A Swadian Sergeant next to him took a stab for him and he died.

The fortress in Pam's heart also collapsed, and the faith in his heart was even shaken.

It seemed that this time, the elven colony could not be preserved. He had let down the countless people who had faith in him…

Chapter 638: The Tragic Situation on the Frontlines

Pam had made a mistake in his judgment and his heart sank into endless contradictions that condemned him.

He clearly felt that there was something wrong with the undead soldiers last night, but he still believed that these sharp cavalries would win every battle!

But now, he understood that he had lost. He had lost the ability to be alert at the very least. How terrifying was this? This caused the entire cavalry to fall into endless danger.

One of the undead soldiers suddenly jumped out of the trap.

His jumping ability was so powerful that he instantly flew up to five meters in the air.

A fireball from the sky was targeting his head. For the undead soldiers, the area above the neck should be their second fatal weakness.

Pam comforted himself in his heart.

The fireball hit the head of the undead soldier strongly.

All eyes seemed to be focused on him. The undead soldier was heavily pressed to the ground by the fireball.

There was even a crater the size of a meteorite on the ground.

Smoke filled the air. Pam looked forward hopefully. Reality gave him another critical hit.

The undead soldier actually stood up from the crater unscathed.

He roared as if the fireball had completely enraged him. He jumped up and instantly took the life of an elf beside him.

Pam sighed. Was it still not enough?

Was this batch of undead soldiers already so powerful? There was actually a flaw in his information?

Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air. The elf in front of them had fallen at their feet. Pam truly could not believe that the undead soldier had such formidable attack power.

With such attack power, if his cavalries were to fight one-on-one, they would definitely not be a match for the undead soldier.

The short and thin elf was grabbed by the undead soldier. The undead soldier's strength was extremely great. He used all his strength to tear the poor elf into two pieces by the undead soldier.

Just like a piece of toast, the elf was torn into two pieces without any resistance.

He did not struggle, because he could not struggle either. The power of the undead soldier was not something he could imagine. Even Pam did not know how powerful the undead soldier's attacks were.

The undead soldier's violence had clearly not stopped. He continued to move forward, jumping three feet high. In the blink of an eye, he was already in front of a cavalry.

The cavalry did not sense the danger approaching. He was still fighting with the undead soldier in front of him. His strength was not bad. When he was in the knight corps, Pam had already begun to praise him. However, Pam did not expect him not to notice that an undead soldier was standing behind him.

Pam was already too busy taking care of himself, but he still wanted to remind the knight who was fighting beside him.

Before he could say anything, the undead soldier's blade had already cut the cavalry off their horses.

That knight probably didn't even know that he had been ambushed from behind when he was dying. He naively thought that the undead soldiers were stupid since that they couldn't think, that they never knew anything about strategy and they would only rely on numbers to win.

This was what his most loyal captain, Pam, had told him. He had even made notes in the training ground, leaving his back completely to his companions. He had to trust them!

Those undead soldiers weren't smart…

He was wrong, and so was Captain Pam. He had realized this before he died, but the loss of blood accelerated the process of his death.

He tilted his neck and stared at the captain who was still fighting in front of him and slowly closed his eyes.

Pam's eyes were bloodshot. His beloved teammates had all fallen in front of him. But he was like a child, when faced with bad people, he had no power at all. He had once made a vow, he had said that he would lead this group of young men to fight everywhere and make them an indestructible army. However, he had broken his promise now. They couldn't even break through a small undead soldier, let alone a mysterious and unknown desert.

The undead soldier with the ability to jump suddenly fell from the sky and landed in front of Pam. He held his big knife with both hands. It was covered with the blood of his countless comrades. The blood dripped onto the ground bit by bit and it scattered in all directions like snowflakes.

Pam's eyes welled up with tears. This iron man who had been the leader for more than ten years had also been weakened.

He raised the lance in his hand and declared war on the undead soldier.

However, it seemed that the undead soldier only wanted to provoke him. He only waved the broadsword in his hand and then jumped to the side.

His movement speed was definitely not something that Pam could catch up to. Moreover, Pam's mount was also killed by the undead soldier, so it was even more impossible for him to catch up with the undead soldier. The number of undead soldiers in front of him did not decrease but increased and this made Pam panicky. He watched as the cavalries around him were getting fewer. In the end, he was left alone under the encirclement of the undead soldiers.

With the level of a Holy Knight, the low-level undead soldiers were obviously not Pam's match. Pam's lance could penetrate the throats of three or four undead soldiers at once. But so what? Those undead soldiers were like machines produced by a factory. They were endless and not afraid of death at all.

Pam was still retreating backward. One of the undead soldiers had cut his shoulder, but he turned a deaf ear to it. Now was not the time to turn back and give it a heavy blow.

Pam was still rational in his heart. He wanted to live and avenge his knights.

The night of war was described as bitter. There were cries everywhere. Many children had lost their fathers that night.

Pam sat on the steps of the Elven Palace. His face had not been washed with cold water. His hands were covered with mottled knife marks. There was still a lot of blood flowing on them. Some of it had dried up and become scars, however, there was still a lot of blood left.

Pam's face was even more terrifying. It was gloomy and helpless. A huge scar had been cut on his forehead by the undead soldiers. The wound was huge, but he turned a deaf ear to it. The blood was lying on his collar along his glabella.

His clothes were also tattered. His armor was torn into pieces. He looked like the scavengers outside.

He threw the gun in the distance, and his eyes were fixed on the gun.

In last night's battle, all his comrades had been sacrificed, and even Captain Spock had died at the hands of the undead soldiers.

Chapter 639: Pam, Who Had Fallen into Despair

Pam's heart was bleeding. He could not forgive himself for sending all his teammates to the guillotine.

He dragged his tired body back to Drondheim City alone. The horse he was riding was given to him by the Elf King.

It was to ensure that he could return to Drondheim City successfully.

Commander Bunduk was standing on the city wall at the moment, waiting for the victor to return triumphantly.

A soldier knelt in front of Bunduk. He sobbed and reported, "Commander Bunduk, according to the reports from the front line, we were all defeated in the battle last night!"

"What?" Commander Bunduk widened his eyes. He looked at the soldier in front of him and was obviously very angry.

"You scoundrel, if you lie about the military information, you will be beheaded."

"I definitely do not dare to do so! Commander Bunduk."

The soldier said to Bunduk with great respect. He even had a sobbing tone. His brother was one of the Virgil knights.

His brother had died heroically last night.

Bunduk only felt that his vision was very dark now. He could not accept such a thing. That was an extremely powerful knight corps. In addition, there were more than a thousand Swadian Sergeants. How could all of them be wiped out by the enemy?

"This is bad!" Bunduk ran to the main city of Drondheim in a panic.

Kant was reviewing the words of the ministers last night.

Recently, the city-state of Drondheim was gradually rising, and the people's voices towards him were also gradually rising. Moreover, everyone held great respect for the army and soldiers, which made Kant feel very gratified.

"Commander Bunduk, how many times have I told you, not to be so anxious and noisy during an audience?"

Kant stopped the scroll in his hand and raised his head to look at Commander Bunduk. His forehead was full of sweat, and his hands were also trembling.

Kant finally realized the seriousness of the matter.

"Commander Kant, I'm sorry, we've all lost!"

Bunduk said with a sobbing tone. He looked at Lord Kant with tragic eyes. Although he was not the one who lost the battle, he seemed to be blaming himself now.

He even felt that it was impossible, so he went to check on Z's messenger pigeon last night. The battle report was indeed like this.

At that moment, he felt that his eyes were covered in black fog.

Kant was stunned. It had been a long time since he had received such shocking news. He kept repeating, "Really?"

Bunduk did not answer. He just lowered his head. It would be foolish to answer Lord Kant's question now.

"Lord Kant, Commander Pam is back!" a soldier said to Kant.

"Let him in!" Kant's tone was not friendly, and it even sounded like he was condemning.

The soldier trembled and retreated.

Soon, Pam kneeled in front of Kant. He did not cry, but his face was calm. At this time, his wound had not been treated, just like the old man who was scavenging outside.

He seemed to have aged dozens of years.

"Commander Pam, I need your explanation."

Kant stood in front of Pam. He stared at him seriously, trying to figure out the origin of the matter from his body.

But Pam pursed his mouth tightly. He exhaled after a long time.

As if he had made a great decision, he said, "Lord Kant, I'm sorry. I'm here to collect my death. I beg Lord Kant to give me the criminal law in Drondheim's eyes. I'm willing to let eight horses dismember me!"

Kant frowned, and his tone was filled with anger, he said, "Commander Pam, tell me what happened. I need a reasonable explanation. Why are you the only one left among the 1,500 soldiers I sent you? What's going on?"

Kant was about to lose his patience.

Pam suddenly burst into tears. He said mournfully, "Those undead soldiers were too strong. Our troops are no match for them. The information is wrong!"

Kant's eyebrows knitted together. He asked, "What's going on?"

Pam continued, "Among these undead soldiers, there was a leader of the undead soldiers with astonishing combat strength. His jumping ability is extremely powerful, and his movement ability is much stronger than mine. I was no match for him at all, but he let me off. He was like a powerful enemy who likes to play tricks on his opponents."

Kant clenched his fists, he said fiercely, "You're saying that those undead soldiers have leaders, and their combat strength is much stronger than those ordinary undead soldiers? And you're saying that the leaders also have high intelligence?"

He couldn't believe what he had heard. According to all the intelligence reports, none of them mentioned that these undead soldiers had leaders and that these leaders actually had very strong combat strength?

Kant paused for a moment before continuing, "I don't want my subordinates to hide anything."

"Absolutely nothing!" Pam immediately replied.

"Very good!"

Kant laughed out loud. Perhaps he should not be laughing right now, but the desire to fight had ignited in his heart. The challenge that he had not felt for a long time had appeared, which made Kant a little excited, he did not think that the lives of the soldiers were very precious. In his eyes, they were just a pile of data, but to Pam, these data were the most precious thing to him.

"Commander Pam, since you want to be punished the most severely, I will satisfy you."

Kant sighed and beckoned for the people on both sides to come forward.

"Take Commander Pam away. Use five horses to dismember Commander Pam to death!"

Kant's words stunned the surrounding soldiers for a moment. Kant continued, "Do you want me to repeat it?"

The soldiers' hands trembled in fear. They quickly lifted Commander Pam on both sides and brought him out of the main door.

Bunduk was also shocked by Kant's action. He immediately went forward and knelt in front of Kant.

"Leader Kant, don't you need to think about it? Although Commander Pam made a mistake in his eyes, he didn't deserve to die, right?"

Bunduk was puzzled.

"Commander Bunduk, are you questioning my decision? Since Commander Pam wants to die, why don't I let him meet his beloved subordinates in the underground?"

Kant said resolutely. His purpose was to let everyone see that even if he had a high position as a commander, as long as he made a mistake, he would receive the harshest punishment like an ordinary person.

Bunduk retracted his head.

Kant continued, "No matter what mistake he made, Commander Pam was wrong. He underestimated the enemy. He has already admitted this. I gave him the death sentence to let you understand that you can not make such a mistake!"

Chapter 640: The Lord who Insists on Doing Things His Own Way

"But he has already advanced to the level of a Holy Knight. If we kill him, we will lose a very powerful fighting force."

Bunduk tried hard to plead for Pam.

However, Kant was even more determined to tell him, "Commander Bunduk, even if I have committed such a crime today, I will still commit suicide to atone for it, let alone Commander Pam."

Only then did Bunduk shut his mouth. It seemed that Kant had already made up his mind. He could not change the Lord's mind.

In the direction of the noon gate, Commander Pam's body was dismembered. His head hung at the city gate as a warning to everyone. This was the punishment of the loser. Drondheim did not need a defeated general.

Kant did not say this explicitly, but all the ministers knew the meaning behind it.

Unexpectedly, they did not mention anything about Commander Pam.

The Elf King of the elven colony came to the city of Drondheim again.

Kant personally received the Elf King.

"Elf King, I'm very sorry that I didn't help your country this time!" Kant said helplessly.

The Elf King handed the box in his hand to Kant and said, "I heard that Leader Kant punished Commander Pam?"

"He was dismembered," Kant said calmly. He took a sip of the red wine in front of him.

The Elf King clearly did not expect Lord Kant to kill Pam directly. This was beyond his imagination.

The Elf King paused and said, "Lord Kant, isn't this a lack of consideration?"

"What do you mean?"

Kant was happy to tell him the reason.

"In my opinion, although Commander Pam could not resist the undead soldiers, he still protected the elven colony for one night. His leadership ability is very strong, at least among my ministers, no one can compare to Commander Pam. Such a person, in my opinion, has no flaws at all, only that he lacks a bit of luck. The strength of the undead soldiers last night was beyond our expectations. They have an intelligent leader, and they organized a proper attack. In that attack, Commander Pam did not show any fear. He was a hero-like figure, always charging at the front and defeating all the undead soldiers one by one."

"But what's the use of that?"

Kant exhaled slowly. "He was a general who lost the battle after all."

"Your rules are really strict!"

The Elf King began to admire Kant a little. He killed as he wished without any hesitation. Because Commander Pam had lost the battle and he did not bring back any soldiers, Kant treated everyone equally. He gave Pam the death sentence.

The Elf King closed his mouth as if he was recalling Kant's words. After a long while, he said, "You must have other reasons for giving him the death sentence, right?"

Kant smiled and said, "Commander Pam no longer has the qualifications to be a commander. His confidence has been completely defeated. No matter how many troops I give him to take revenge, he will still be defeated in the end. Why don't I give him a quick death so that he won't be stuck in pain forever?"

Kant's words were very convincing, and even the Elf King was moved. He said, "It seems that we have all misunderstood you! You are not a tyrant! You saved Commander Pam. He must be much happier in the face of death than he is in the world."

Their idle talk quickly passed, but no one knew Kant's real intention except the Elf King. They all thought that the king in front of them had become a violent king, and this king only allowed them to win wars, and those who lost wars had to die!

But Kant did not care. The king was fickle in the hearts of the ministers. At present, he might be a tyrant in their hearts, but time would wash away everything. What he did was completely contrary to a tyrant.

Kant ordered people to take down the body of Commander Pam, who was hanging on the city gate and buried him with the highest level of etiquette.

He was indeed not a deserter, he was a hero, but Kant had to use him to win over the hearts of the people, to make the ministers fear him, to be able to go all out in the great war, and not have reservations everywhere.

The invasion of the undead soldiers was still ongoing.

The Elf King was also worried about this, he continued to say to Kant, "Lord Kant, you helped us. Even if it is to commemorate Commander Pam, I should hand over 15% of the territory to you, but now we are still under attack by the undead soldiers. If you are still willing to take over, please continue to send troops to support us."

Kant already knew what the Elf King was planning. He could use a bit of territory to exchange for more soldiers to extend the life of their elven colony. This way, they could continuously weaken the forces of Drondheim.

Kant smiled and said, "Elf King, the conditions have changed. If you want us to continue sending reinforcements to you, you have to sign at least 30% of the territory transfer treaty! Our soldiers can not be sacrificed in vain. They are the elites of Drondheim, and they are worth 30% of the territory."

The Elf King did not expect Drondheim to change his mind at the last minute, and he looked especially nervous. He said, "Isn't Lord Kant afraid that I will work with the Jackalans now?"

Kant gently put his hand on the treaty in front of him and said, "The Jackalans are greedier than us. They may need 50% of the territory to agree to cooperate with you. Don't you know that?"

He pushed the treaty toward the Elf King, he said, "You know how powerful the undead soldiers are, right? My army has already suffered a serious loss. We deserve this 30% of the territory. Moreover, the Jackalans are almost unable to take care of themselves. How would they have the time to manage the affairs of the elven colony?"

Kant patiently enticed them, waiting for the Elf King to agree.

The Elf King gritted his teeth and agreed as expected. He said, "Sure, as long as you can save the elven colony, we can even become your vassal kingdom!"

He seemed to have no way out. He actually said that he was willing to become Kant's vassal kingdom.

However, Kant did not continue. Vassal kingdoms were of no use to him. Drondheim had to pass through an empire to reach the elven colony. The two places were too far apart, so it was not suitable. On the other hand, Kant needed 30% of the elven colony's territory because there were fertile raw materials under the elven colony's soil. These raw materials could nourish many medicinal herbs where they bloomed, this was an advantage that Drondheim did not have.

Kant said politely, "Since the Elf King has already agreed to my request, then sign your name under this treaty!"

Chapter 641: A Fair Treaty

The Elf King looked at the treaty in his hand carefully, sometimes speculating, sometimes muttering, but in the end, he wrote it down.

He handed the treaty to Kant and said, "We welcome Drondheim's reinforcements at any time because you are all our friends!"

The Elf King was trying to be nice, and Kant had to do the same for him, so he said, "Please rest assured, Elf King. Since we have become good allies, we will certainly advance and retreat together with your country. Moreover, Drondheim's brave soldiers were killed by the undead soldiers. This is something I hate. I will definitely send an even more elite team to drive the undead soldiers out."

The Elf King's eyes were shining. Thanks to Kant's promise, he was finally able to put a huge rock in his heart safely on the ground. Although the elven colony was in a precarious position, as long as Drondheim was willing to lend a helping hand then there would definitely be a greater chance of victory.

"Thank you so much, Lord Kant. Please allow me to use the highest etiquette of the elven colony to thank you!"

The Elf King stood up. He knelt on one knee, one hand pressed on his chest, and the other raised above his head. He lowered his head and thanked, "Respected Lord Kant, on behalf of the entire elven colony, I thank you!"

Kant quickly helped him up, he smiled and said, "Your Highness is too polite. I am doing this to make my kingdom more prosperous. The spirits of the dead soldiers have not yet rested. I can only avenge them, and that is the greatest explanation to the people."

Kant summoned Commander Bunduk in the meeting hall. This commander was in charge of the Swadian and Rhodok sergeants. He currently held a power that was only slightly lower than Kant's.

It could be said that he was second only to one person, and above ten thousand people.

Kant said to him earnestly, "Commander Bunduk, I know that you are still holding a grudge against me because of Commander Pam's matter, but you must know that everything I do has a reason."

Bunduk immediately shook his head vigorously like a leaf fan, he said in fear, "Commander Kant misunderstood. I have absolutely no sympathy for Commander Pam and he deserves such punishment."

Kant laughed out loud and said, "It's pointless to discuss this. Commander Bunduk, I have no intention of blaming you. I just want to ask for your opinion. What do you think of the undead soldiers?"

Kant took the initiative to hand over the wine in his hand to Bunduk.

Bunduk did not dare to take it. After all, he was a subject. How could he let the king toast to him? He felt that this must be the king's test for him. If he took the wine, he might end up like Pam, because he held too much real power. This would threaten Kant's power.

"Lord Kant, this is Rhodok's token."

Bunduk took the initiative to hand over the Rhodok's token to Kant from his waist.

Kant smiled at him, and then took the token from his hand without saying a word. Bunduk was a very smart person.

Kant knew that he had a sharper sense of smell than Pam, and knew the danger. That's right if Bunduk didn't hand over the Rhodok's token, then he would meet the same fate as Pam.

Kant didn't have any intention of joking.

"In that case, Commander Bunduk, I will now hand over the mission to you!"

Kant patted Bunduk on the shoulder, he smiled and said, "Commander Bunduk, I don't want you to commit the same mistake as Commander Pam. I will give you the choice of two thousand infantrymen this time. You can choose any Swadian Sergeants or Rhodok sergeants that you want, but you must eliminate the undead soldiers in the elven colony.

Bunduk's hands trembled as he received the order. He knew that Kant was not joking at all. This king had unknowingly become so unpredictable that even he could not guess it. He understood Kant's intention of taking back the Rhodok token, he was afraid of Bunduk's authority.

Right now, Bunduk no longer had any real authority in his hands. If he did not win this time, then Bunduk would only die. However, if Bunduk did not accept the order, or offered other opinions, he would die an unnatural death.

After weighing the pros and cons, Bunduk naturally knew what his right choice was. Moreover, in order to survive, he had to do his best to defeat the undead soldiers.

He secretly admired Lord Kant's strategy. No matter what, Lord Kant only left him one way to defeat the undead soldiers, no matter the price.

Bunduk quickly went to the infantry battalion to check on the training results.

The infantrymen of Drondheim were mostly young men in their early twenties. They were strong, quick-witted, and had sharp minds. They could counterattack the enemy faster. This was one of Bunduk's cleverness. He didn't want to be as sentimental as Pam who always liked to provide for the veterans, but even though those veterans were brilliant when they were young, what about after the age of thirty or forty?

They had already begun to go downhill. Who knows, there might be a major mistake in any battle. For example, this time, Commander Pam had lost his life.

Bunduk was a person who loved life very much. He did not think that the lives of soldiers were as important as the lives of commanders. This was also one of the fundamental differences between him and Pam.

Commander Pam was too emotional. This was what he often criticized Pam. Although they were good friends, they were also competitors between commanders. Therefore, Bunduk even knew where his fatal weakness was.

Pam let his emotions rule him. He could be a good friend, but he would not be a good opponent. This was what Bunduk said to Kant.

The truth was that they were only friends, not opponents. Even if they died, Bunduk only thought that Pam was his friend, not his opponent.

This was extremely disrespectful to him because Pam had always treated Bunduk as his opponent. Even when they fought, he always thought that he would surpass Bunduk.

But Bunduk did not take him to heart at all. He was not worthy of being called his opponent.

Bunduk's arrival caused the originally settled training ground to suddenly become lively. All the young soldiers raised their heads and looked over. Other than Lord Kant, the most admirable person was none other than Commander Bunduk. He was young, promising, and humble. Moreover, he had his eyes on young talents. He would not look down on anyone just because they were too young.

Chapter 642: Wise and Rational Peers

On this point, the young soldiers were more willing to join Bunduk's camp than Pam's camp.

"Don't slack off on your training just because of my arrival!"

Bunduk placed his hands behind his back and shouted at them loudly.

Those young lads had good voices. They were all excited when they heard Bunduk's order.

They shouted loud and clear slogans as if they were not fighting virtual puppets, but real enemies.

Bunduk continued shouting, "Treat the puppets in front of you as the undead soldiers that you are about to face. Don't be afraid of them, they are just a bunch of loose sand under your command! They can't even withstand a single blow!"

Bunduk's slogan was loud and clear and seemed to have some special attributes, but his goal was achieved. Such slogans were deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and everyone felt that the undead soldiers were just a bunch of loose sand, when they had never even met a real undead soldier. They had only heard the old seniors bragging in the camp.

Of course, they felt that everything that Commander Bunduk said was true. Those undead soldiers were weak and could not withstand a single blow.

Bunduk's face darkened as he continued, "However, I must tell you that although they are weak, as long as you underestimate them, they will become ten times, a hundred times, or even a thousand times stronger than you. At that time, you will be unable to withstand a single blow!"

Bunduk warned them not to underestimate the enemy. Underestimating the enemy was the biggest mistake.

The knights of Pam had also made such a mistake. They were too proud. Although they looked modest, their inner tails were higher than anyone else's.

"Their weakness is only temporary. You must remain vigilant at all times and must not be afraid. The moment you start to fear, they will become ten thousand times stronger. When that time comes, you won't even be able to see the light of victory!"

Bunduk was warning them that fear was their second greatest enemy. "Even if you are in the most dangerous situation, you must not be afraid. You must believe that we can defeat those weak dregs!"

The power of these words was obviously very shocking. The enthusiasm of all the young infantrymen was highly aroused. They were no longer afraid or worried because their Commander Bunduk had already told them that the opponent was very weak! That's right, the opponent was very weak! But they could not underestimate the enemy, and they could not be afraid either. They had to believe in themselves, just like how Commander Bunduk believed in them!

Soon, it was time to send out the troops.

At the city gate, Commander Kant personally sent away the 2,000 infantrymen that Bunduk led. They were made up of 1,500 Swadian Sergeants and 500 Rhodok sergeants.

This group of young-looking soldiers had a resolute smile on their faces. In this city, there were people they wanted to protect, so they set off with honor.

Their smiles let Kant see the dawn of victory.

Kant personally offered a cup of wine, and he handed it to Bunduk.

Bunduk took the wine cup in his hand without fear and drank it in one gulp. This time, Kant sincerely wanted to give Commander Bunduk a toast, because the soldiers he brought out looked so tenacious. If they could return safely on this trip, they would surely be the strongest backer of Drondheim.

Drondheim's sharpest troops were no longer just the Virgil knights.

Because the outstanding infantry corps led by Bunduk could also be the strongest backer of Drondheim.

Commander Bunduk led these infantry troops and set off.

The elven colony was relatively far away. They did not use horses, and even Bunduk refused to use horses. He and the soldiers used their feet to walk together.

After two days and a night, they finally arrived at the elven colony.

However, at this moment, Bunduk felt a sense of desolation in his heart. The elven colony was already in dire straits.

The bony elves could be seen everywhere. Their eyes were sunken, and their clothes were dirty and messy. Where were their houses?

All the houses had been destroyed by the undead soldiers. Some of the houses were still sparking on the beams. These terrible conditions were indicative of the evil deeds of the undead soldiers.

Bunduk did not immediately reveal their identities. He led 2,000 infantrymen and walked on the ruined land.

The elves were very resistant to contact with foreign species, but it seemed that they no longer had the strength to drive Bunduk and the others away.

The young infantrymen could not stand it anymore. He was about to give some water and food to the old elf beside him but was quickly stopped by Bunduk's stern gaze.

This was a matter of their country, and they did not have any power to interfere. At least, Lord Kant did not give Bunduk such power.

A five-star old elf had already seen Bunduk and the others outside the palace.

He immediately ran forward and said, "Welcome, Commander Bunduk. His Excellency the Elf King has been waiting for a long time. If you had come a little later, perhaps the lives of the elves would have been ruined."

Bunduk did not bother about him. Instead, he directly led the two infantry captains behind him and walked past the old elf.

The remaining infantry stood in place and waited for orders.

The old elf clearly did not mind Bunduk's rudeness. This was the arrogance that a commander should have. He even had a little respect for such arrogance. Thus, he followed behind Bunduk with his head turned up, not daring to say a word.

Bunduk joined the Elf King in the royal palace.

The Elf King didn't dare to neglect this commander, just like he didn't dare to neglect Kant.

He prepared the best medicinal wine and wanted to treat Bunduk on the tiring journey, and Bunduk was much more polite.

He said to the Elf King, "If you have this medicinal wine, it might be more useful for the injured outside than for me. Although the journey was extremely tiring, fortunately, we didn't encounter any remaining undead soldiers, and the soldiers came to the elven colony in one piece."

There was a hint of anger in Bunduk's tone, but anyone would think that this was the temperament of a general. Therefore, the Elf King only smiled and said, "Commander Bunduk should also understand that there are too many wounded in the elven colony. Even if we send all the medical elves, they would not be able to save those wounded elves. The best way is for Commander Bunduk to lead us to defeat the undead soldiers. Isn't this the easiest way?"

Bunduk smiled and agreed with him. In such a chaotic era, being a king was a very difficult thing to do.

He suddenly understood the Elf King's intention to make the elven colony a subsidiary city of Drondheim.

"I wonder if the Commander has already come up with a battle plan?" the Elf King asked.

Bunduk nodded. "I have already discussed it with Lord Kant and came up with some safer plans. I just don't know if the Elf King will accept it!"

Chapter 643: The Weakness of the Elven Ministers

When the elves heard that Commander Bunduk already had a general direction of attack, they were extremely happy.

He bowed respectfully to Commander Bunduk and said, "The life and death of the elven colony depend on Commander Bunduk. I only hope that my people can safely survive this crisis."

Bunduk nodded, he continued, "I wonder if the Elf King has prepared a camp for our soldiers to rest in. They have been through a lot on their journey. If they do not have a timely rest plan, they might not be able to deal with the undead soldiers tonight."

"Of course!" The Elf King hurriedly waved his hand to signal the old elves next to him to lead the soldiers who were waiting at the palace gate to a place where they needed to rest.

This was a very important battle. The Elf King did not wish for any mistakes to occur. He did not have the qualifications to be the commander-in-chief of the elven colony, but his people had unconditionally given him hope, therefore, no matter what price he had to pay, he still needed to win this battle.

The Elf King said again, "Commander Bunduk, I wonder what battle plan did Lord Kant discuss with you?"

He looked so anxious as if the undead soldiers would attack at any moment.

Bunduk muttered, "Your Highness, this is the battle plan of Lord Kant and me."

He grabbed the stick next to him and said to the Elf King, "One stick is easy to break, but two sticks are not so easy to break!"

"I understand that." The Elf King looked at Commander Bunduk in confusion. He was more and more interested in knowing their battle plan.

Bunduk continued, "This is our battle plan!"

He smiled confidently and cheerfully. He believed in his young soldiers. These young soldiers were the future of the country.

The reason why Drondheim was able to develop so well was because of the protection of these strong soldiers.

However, the Elf King clearly did not understand the meaning behind Bunduk's words. He asked again, "Commander Bunduk, I don't quite understand what you're saying. Can you be more specific?"

Bunduk said solemnly, "Your Highness, this is a very simple principle. As long as we are united, we can defeat the undead soldiers. No, even if there are 100,000 undead soldiers, as long as there's unity, we will definitely be able to defeat them!"

"Unity?"

This term seemed so unfamiliar to the soldiers of the elven colony. The soldiers of the elven colony paid more attention to their individual abilities. They had been trained as offensive magic soldiers since they were young, they were either medical soldiers who were good at medicine or logistics soldiers who were good at supporting skills. However, unity was a rare word that he had rarely heard.

"That's right, Your Highness, please place enough confidence in me. My soldiers, they are all united soldiers. As long as there's unity among these soldiers, they will definitely be invincible!"

Bunduk spoke so seriously, without any hint of weakness or inattentiveness.

"But…" the Elf King paused for a moment and looked at Bunduk worriedly, then said, "the soldiers led by Commander Pam were also very united, but the final result was not very optimistic. Commander Bunduk, I still can not agree with your opinion. Comparing unity and individual ability, the latter is more important in the elven colony. As long as one has the individual ability, even if he is a person who leaves the team, he can still stand in a very high position. All of them are very arrogant and would not listen to the opinions of others. However, it was because of these elves who had outstanding individual abilities that they were able to resist the undead soldiers time and time again."

The Elf King even felt a little proud of his elf subjects.

Bunduk retorted, "But Your Excellency, you did not really defeat the undead soldiers, did you? Didn't you still seek help from Drondheim in the end?"

Bunduk's retort forced the Elf King into a speechless state. He admitted that he couldn't refute Bunduk's words, but he still found it hard to accept such a statement. After all, the elven colony was indeed a place where strength was respected, without strength, it was impossible to become a simple noble.

"If you still don't believe me, then let's use tonight's victory to make a big bet with you, shall we?"

Bunduk laughed. He also wanted to ease the current atmosphere.

They were not opponents, but allies. The argument just now clearly had sparks, and Bunduk stopped such a conversation in time.

Bunduk said again, "Elf King, we need your elves to help us tonight."

The Elf King replied resolutely, "Of course. Our elves will definitely be the strongest support."

"But…" Bunduk paused for a moment, then said, "all of your troops must listen to my orders. No one can leave the team!"

Bunduk also told the Elf King his request very seriously.

The Elf King nodded and said, "No problem. I want to see what Commander Bunduk means by unity. All of my soldiers can be temporarily commanded by Commander Bunduk."

On Madeline Square, the Elf King gathered all the ministers and soldiers with three-star elven power and above.

Most of the soldiers had dirty faces and looked lazy. They did not look like soldiers at all.

Bunduk silently remembered it.

He suddenly understood one of the important reasons for Commander Pam's failure. These elven soldiers who were about to go to the battlefield clearly did not take the cruel battle that was about to come seriously. They were lazy and perfunctory, even though their homes were about to be destroyed, they still did not care. The ministers also seemed to have a gap between each other. They looked at each other with great resentment.

Bunduk saw all of this.

The ministers of the Elven Dynasty said in a loud voice, "Ministers, today our elven colony welcomed an excellent commander. Under his leadership, everyone will definitely be able to win this war."

All the elves in the square appeared very calm. Some of the elves were even absent-minded when the king spoke, and no one knew what was going on in their minds.

"Therefore, everyone should unconditionally obey the words of Commander Bunduk. Do you understand?"

The Elf King did not have much authority, and the elves below him were all barely in agreement. Most of them held a small portion of real power, while the real power of the Elf King was greatly weakened.

Chapter 644: Inspiring Speech

Seeing that the Elf King did not seem to have anything else to say, Bunduk stood up and spoke loudly to the elves below the square.

He said, "Warriors, your homes are currently being destroyed. Those hateful undead soldiers have harmed your families and harmed the people of this territory. Do you not care at all?"

There was a strong catalyst in the words of Commander Bunduk, but it did not seem to be enough to arouse the conscience of these elven soldiers. Bunduk suddenly recalled what Lord Kant had once said, there were a large number of immigrants from the elven colonies who had snuck into Drondheim's territory. That's right, they were not spies but trusted aides of the elven colony's ministers. No wonder these ministers did not care, the reason was that the elven colonies had long lost their loved ones. They weren't willing to use their true power because they wanted to live, and not because they were determined to fight to the death.

This was also the real reason why the elven colonies were repeatedly defeated and invaded by the weak undead soldiers.

Bunduk was currently having a headache, but he could not show it. Pam must have also discovered the reason why the elven colonies were not united. However, Pam did not have too much energy on this at that time, which was why there was a time to retreat, the reason why the elves could not provide good cover was that those elven soldiers did not even want to protect their own comrades, so how could they protect Drondheim, who was not even a comrade?

Bunduk was extremely disappointed. What he needed was a united team and not a divided team. If the elven soldiers at the rear weren't united, it would be useless if his soldiers were so united. Their fate would definitely be the same as Pam's. He wouldn't allow such a thing to happen.

Bunduk continued, "Warriors, I know that you may have some misunderstandings now, but I hope that you can let go of your prejudice against each other. Your relatives are still in Drondheim. If you can't bring out your true strength, then Drondheim will not treat your relatives well. The elven colony is your home. Drondheim is full of hoodlums who bully foreigners."

Bunduk's words were clearly more exciting than the Elf King's.

The ministers' originally indifferent expressions gradually changed. Their faces became gloomy as if they were deep in thought.

It had to be said that Bunduk knew how to win over the hearts of the people better than Pam. Pam only blindly trusted his old teammates, but he would not manage those unrelated people.

However, the elven soldiers and the elven ministers were people who fought side by side with them. If they could not unite them, then this battle would definitely be defeated. Bunduk deeply understood this principle.

Bunduk visited his teammates in the rest camp. These young lads liked to snore loudly when they slept. Bunduk did not have any intention of blaming them, this might be the last time in their lives that they would sleep so soundly.

He also collapsed on a mattress.

The soldier next to him saw Bunduk and quickly said, "Commander Bunduk, why are you sleeping here? Didn't the Elf King give you a private room?"

This young soldier looked very angry. His eyes were filled with anger. He really could not stand the actions of these elves. In his opinion, the elven colonies had fallen to such a state because they had brought this upon themselves and couldn't blame anyone else.

Bunduk continued to lie down, he said to the young soldier, "The Elf King has given me a room to rest in. However, I feel that the floor is more suitable for me. I've been fighting outside all year round, and I always like to sleep on the floor with the soldiers. This is my freedom. You don't have to be too surprised."

As he spoke, Bunduk also began snoring loudly. He was a physically energetic person, but he could not resist the erosion of time.

The young soldier was clearly moved by Bunduk's words, and his heart softened.

Tears suddenly appeared in his eyes. This was something that should not appear on a soldier. He secretly wiped it off, and then fell asleep next to Commander Bunduk.

In Madeline Square, Bunduk and 1500 soldiers were ready to leave. Those soldiers received a great recovery after a day of rest. They all looked radiant and full of the vigor of young people, most importantly, there was a calm smile on the corners of these people's mouths.

This was a rare situation, but for Bunduk, attacking the heart was what he was best at. He was not a person who loved soldiers very much. At least, compared to Pam, he definitely would not reach the height of Pam who loved soldiers as much.

He was just using his methods to reasonably mobilize the atmosphere of the soldiers. Usually, as long as he put on a high and mighty appearance and got close to the soldiers during battle, he would be able to achieve an unexpected result.

That was why these soldiers looked like they were ready to die.

On the other hand, the cavalry led by Pam were all used to Pam being amiable to them. Therefore, many times, their unity was only on the surface, and when it came to actual combat, they were often vulnerable.

Bunduk maintained a calm mind at all times. He analyzed in his mind what he should do to mobilize the soldiers' momentum, and what he should do to make the elven ministers listen to him.

His goal was only to win the war to save his life. He did not think that Commander Kant's words were a joke. After all, Pam was a lesson learned from the past. Should there be another lesson like his?

Bunduk didn't dare to try, so he said, "Soldiers, don't let Lord Kant down! You are all the sharpest soldiers of Drondheim. Don't forget what Lord Kant said before we left!"

"Lord Kant is waiting for us to return in triumph!"

Bunduk's loud voice resounded throughout Madeline Square. The elven ministers were frightened by such a loud voice.

Bunduk continued to speak to the elven ministers, "You are the most reliable rear defense force. I believe in you!"

These words caused the elven ministers' faces to suddenly turn red. This was the first time most of the ministers had heard someone say such words to them. This caused their hearts to become filled with faint anticipation. It was as if they did not want to avoid the war, instead, they wanted to try to face the war and go all out instead of hiding behind it.

Chapter 645: Simple and Straightforward Defense

At night, the undead soldiers had gradually gathered on the mountain top. They seemed to have become even stronger than before. From their auras, Bunduk could sense it.

These undead soldiers looked extremely ugly. Their faces were not complete, but skeletons. There were even some bugs crawling on them. Greenlight shot out from their empty eyes, making them seem rather dazzling in the night.

Bunduk waved the flag in his hand. The commanding tool was his wife.

He shouted, "Kill!"

All the Swadian Sergeants seemed to be excited. They moved in unison towards the undead soldiers. Behind them, the elves were casting a spell. This spell could give the soldiers more powerful offensive abilities, it could make them cheer up.

Bunduk was not idling either. He immediately mounted a horse and followed closely behind the Swadian Sergeants.

Unlike Pam, Bunduk did not use a triangular attack formation. Instead, he used a square formation. All of the Swadian Sergeants held shields that had been modified by the crystal ores and moved in unison towards the undead soldiers, the undead soldiers seemed to be intimidated by their powerful aura.

They even slowed down their pace, and the aura of the Swadian Sergeants became even more vigorous.

In their minds, they recalled what Commander Bunduk had said. As long as they were fearless, these undead soldiers would be puppets that could not withstand a single blow. However, as long as they relaxed, these undead soldiers would become a hundred or a thousand times stronger than before.

These simple soldiers thought that what Bunduk had said was the truth. They were not afraid because if they were afraid, they would only be left with a dead end. Therefore, they shouted and tore at their throats, they were not afraid of any undead soldiers.

A tall and sturdy undead soldier carrying a sharp broadsword descended from the sky. He jumped down from a tree, trying to jump into this impregnable square formation. However, before he could even steady himself, he was pierced through the throat by a long lance from the nearby Swadian Sergeant. What flowed out of his throat was not bright red blood, but green, bubbling liquid. It flowed from his neck to the tip of his toes, and he fell to the ground. Countless Swadian Sergeants stepped over his corpse. It was trampling on the dignity of the enemy, but the undead soldiers seemed to have gained consciousness at some point, they were actually a little afraid of these young Swadian Sergeants.

The elven ministers were casting spells behind them. Most of them were attackers with offensive magic. Some cast super fireball spells and ice sealing spells, restricting all the undead soldiers. Some even cast spatial magic, they had moved the undead soldiers away from their positions and broke their formation. All of this was thanks to Bunduk. These elven ministers had never fought a battle so seriously. Most of the time, they acted as deserters. When they faced the enemy, they subconsciously pushed their soldiers to the front line. As long as the situation was slightly unfavorable, these ministers would ask the King for a withdrawal order. The Elf King was also a coward that he would accept any withdrawal order. Moreover, in this country, absolute strength was advocated. As long as one was strong enough, then the king could even exchange a thousand ordinary people for a powerful minister.

This was the law of this country, which gradually reduced this country to a colony. Moreover, in this undead soldiers' surprise attack, they were always in a weak position from beginning to end.

Bunduk had already completely understood the reason for this country's backwardness, but he did not mention it to the Elf King. Presumably, the Elf King had also realized his own mistake in administration, which was why he had always intended to extend an olive branch to Lord Kant.

More than a hundred undead soldiers suddenly attacked from the right side of the phalanx. Those undead soldiers' footsteps were very orderly, and even Bunduk had the illusion that these undead soldiers were regular soldiers.

However, the Swadian Sergeants were not a vegetarian army. They raised the shields in their hands to welcome the malicious undead soldiers. Countless large knives hacked on the hard shields, making a clanging sound. This sound was very disturbing to the ears, however, the Swadian Sergeants were already used to it. Their hands began to tremble because of the intense frequency, and the more they trembled, the more their hands followed closely. No one had the urge to let go, they were a whole unit. As long as there was a loophole, then the entire Swadian Sergeants would be facing defeat. No one wanted to be the sinner.

However, there would always be someone who would be the sinner. He was the young man who spoke to Commander Bunduk at noon and was shocked that Commander Bunduk would actually sleep with them.

At this moment, he had made a mistake. He had grabbed onto the shield tightly, but most of the undead soldiers were charging at his shield. Both of his hands had begun to bleed because of the grip on the handle, and the blood dyed the ground red, however, he did not want to give up. He did not want to see the commander show a disappointed expression when he saw him, so he gritted his teeth and persevered. However, more undead soldiers charged at his shield, and countless machetes attacked the shield, even a shield forged from crystal ore was as fragile as glass. It finally reached a critical point, and the shield shattered.

Seeing that a hole had appeared in the phalanx, the undead soldiers focused all their attention on this hole.

He panicked. Looking at the undead soldiers in front of him, the first thing he thought of was to raise the dagger at his waist and fight with the undead soldiers with his life. However, the undead soldiers' machetes were more agile than his reactions, he felt an unbearable pain on his shoulder. He could feel a fountain of blood surging from his wound. His chin and neck were all stained with beautiful colors. He trembled, his hand could no longer touch the dagger at his waist. By the time he touched the dagger at his waist, it would probably have been cut into two by the undead soldier.

He did not hesitate at all. Instead, he stepped forward and used his weak body to cover the undead soldier's machete. The blade penetrated his body, and fresh blood rolled on the tip of the blade. The blood was very hot and thick.

It was the pride of a young soldier. It kept rolling and refused to fall from the blade to the ground. However, a little hot blood would always be cold at some point.

Chapter 646: Unknown Soldier

He was finally dead, but his eyes seemed unwilling to close for a long time.

He blocked the undead soldiers outside the phalanx. His small body was actually stronger than his broken crystal shield.

The huge mistake he made was mended by his comrades.

His position was strengthened in defense. He used his life to tell his comrades where the weakest point was. His sacrifice was worth it.

Bunduk no longer recognized the dead young man. The goal of the conversation he had with him in the afternoon was to use the young soldier to perk up the Swadian Sergeants, but in the young man's heart, Commander Bunduk would always be the good commander who looked dignified but was the most approachable. With this thought in mind, he would die without regrets.

Bunduk did not even look at his corpse on the ground. He mercilessly stepped over it and took the life of one of the undead soldiers in front of him.

The bell at midnight had already rung.

Bunduk calmed down. The biggest reason why Commander Pam failed was because of the huge change that happened after midnight. The Elf King had once mentioned to him that it was a group of undead soldiers with extremely powerful jumping abilities, with just a little bit of force, they would be able to jump from where they were to a height of more than five meters above the ground.

This was a height that even the most powerful warhorse in the world would not be able to jump to. If the height was adjusted according to the body ratio of a flea, then the undead soldiers would be equivalent to fleas the size of humans. How would they overcome the powerful gravitational field?

Bunduk pondered in his mind.

What exactly was the reason that allowed an undead soldier to jump to such a height.

While he was thinking, the undead soldiers had already approached him. Jumping three feet high was indeed powerful. At this moment, the undead soldiers were all standing on tall trees. Their hands were holding large knives and their limbs were very long, especially their hands, they were even longer than their bodies, which gave them more attack range.

Bunduk ordered loudly, "Everyone, change your formation!"

At this moment, the square formation changed under Bunduk's order. In addition, shields were also added to protect the top of their heads, protecting the entire square formation.

The undead soldiers looked at the soldiers with mocking expressions. Bunduk looked at their expressions and felt mixed emotions. Commander Pam must have noticed that these undead soldiers actually started to have expressions, moreover, the way they managed their expressions was almost the same as humans, especially when their mocking expressions were similar to humans. Bunduk instantly recalled the time when he was a young soldier, that captain also had the same mocking expression on his face. The expression of this undead soldier was so similar to his.

"Everyone, be on guard. Don't let the undead soldiers have any opportunities to take advantage of us."

The young Swadian Sergeants answered Bunduk's orders in unison.

They were all very confident. Even though many of their comrades were defeated, they still believed that as long as they were confident and showed their fearless spirit, these undead soldiers would be like fragile puppets.

Those undead soldiers who had the powerful jumping ability on the trees suddenly jumped down from the trees in an orderly manner. They raised the large knives in their hands high up and fiercely hit the hard shields.

The clanging sounds made everyone abnormally excited.

No one retreated. If one person could not hold on anymore, then two people would hold a shield together.

The elven ministers were also trying their best to cast magic. Their fireball spell could already restrict the ordinary undead soldiers, but it couldn't attack those powerful undead soldiers. The weakness of magic was that it was relatively slow to cast, usually, after they finished casting, the undead soldiers would have already jumped to God knows where.

On the other hand, the medical elves were most useful. They were inserted into the Swadian Sergeants' formation. They waved the needles in their hands. In just a few breaths' time, a sergeant would be able to recover a large amount of stamina.

This was also something that the Swadian Sergeants lacked. They did not have advanced medical technology, but the elves in the elven colony did. This was one of Bunduk's battle plans. The medical elves and logistics elves would take turns to fight, they would no longer be like Pam's formation, where they would put the medical elves at the rear and wait until their teammates were injured before slowly returning to the rear to heal.

This would waste a lot of time.

The elves' attack power that was good at jumping was not weaker than that of ordinary undead elves. Their knives were even more ruthless and crafty. Even four or five Swadian Sergeants might not be able to defeat a single undead soldier, their main task was to survive the night. As long as they heard the sound of a rooster crowing, the undead soldiers would retreat. They would then have time to find the nest of these undead soldiers and destroy it in one fell swoop.

Time passed by minute by minute. However, to the Swadian Sergeants, this short night was like a long year. Many soldiers fell, and then more soldiers came in later, these fallen soldiers either died or recovered after receiving treatment from the elves, and then continued to participate in the battle.

The 1500 infantrymen were obviously weak. Although 500 Rhodok sergeants were relatively strong, 500 of them could not change the battle situation. The most important thing was to rely on the defense of the 1000 Swadian Sergeants.

Rhodok sergeants' main responsibility was to pierce through the throat of the surrounding undead soldiers with a single shot.

Although the time was long, their beliefs were unwavering, and they were even stronger.

However, no matter how strong their spirits were, they would still be weakened. The injured Swadian Sergeants began to complain. They did not expect the undead soldiers to be so strong. They were not as weak as Commander Bunduk had said.

Bunduk obviously noticed this as well. He calmly said to the soldiers, "Everyone, hold on for a little longer. In another hour, the sun will rise. The rooster is going to crow. These undead soldiers will not last until the sun rises."

There was not only one hour left. It was only past midnight. There were still a few hours before the rooster crowed.

However, Bunduk said so. When the soldiers heard that there was only an hour left, they all became excited. No one bothered about how long it would take for the sky to brighten. They all wanted to fight for a while more, just a little longer, the sky would brighten soon.

With this belief, the sound of the rooster crowing seemed to be heard an hour later.

It was the sound of salvation.

Chapter 647: The Undead who Were Unwilling to Give up

When the Swadian Sergeants heard this voice that sounded like the heavens had forgiven them, they began to shout.

The clanging sounds became weaker and weaker.

When they withdrew their shields, they could only see countless undead soldiers retreating to the back.

The Swadian Sergeants cried out for victory.

Under the leadership of the great Commander Bunduk, they had obtained victory against the undead soldiers.

This kind of honor could allow their Swadian Sergeant's status to instantly soar in Drondheim. This was the honor of a team, and it was the most deserving of praise from all the soldiers.

Bunduk returned with a full load, and he met the Elf King in the palace.

"Respected Commander Bunduk, Congratulations on your victory against the undead soldiers. This battle will definitely be recorded in the annals of history and will be remembered eternally!"

The Elf King personally poured a cup of medicinal wine for Bunduk. He raised his cup first.

Bunduk's heart was filled with the heroic spirit of victory at this moment. He raised his cup and drank happily with the Elf King.

Only then did he suggest, "Your Highness, now is not the time for the entire country to celebrate. As everyone knows, those undead soldiers have only temporarily retreated. It won't be long before they continue to invade the elven colony. At this moment, we have not won. We are just lucky to have dragged them down. Please give me another 100 elven soldiers. I will lead them to topple the nest of the undead soldiers. Only then will the elven colony be able to obtain a longer period of peace."

Hearing Bunduk's suggestion, the Elf King's eyes naturally lit up. He was very impressed by Bunduk's ability to maintain his composure.

Bunduk led more than 100 Swadian Sergeants and 100 elven soldiers onto the battlefield from last night. There were many corpses of Swadian Sergeants and Virgil knights here, they were gradually rotting and sinking into the soil, becoming rich nutrients that nurtured this land.

Bunduk smiled, smiling very easily. Those undead would be able to rest in peace because of last night's victory.

He suddenly stepped on a corpse. It was the corpse of the sergeant who had made a mistake last night. Because of his mistake, the entire square formation almost fell into chaos. In the end, it was unknown who had stepped forward to make up for the mistake, Bunduk did not see the figure of the person who had made up for the mistake. If he had seen it, he would definitely have asked Lord Kant to increase his rank and treat his family well.

However, the young corpse in front of him belonged to the Swadian Sergeant who made a mistake.

Bunduk looked at the corpse with some disgust. However, he thought about it and heaved a sigh of relief. He walked around the corpse.

For some reason, even though it was a darn soldier who had made a mistake, Bunduk suddenly felt that stepping on his corpse would be an insult to him.

Bunduk and no one else would never know how much this young soldier respected him at noon yesterday.

In front of them was a Wild Boar Swamp. The reason for its name was because not only were there large numbers of wild boars roaming around the swamp, but the swamp would also release a large amount of poisonous gas. Those wild boars had gone through elimination and mutation, in the end, they had evolved into a species that was not afraid of the poisonous gas in the swamp.

Their long tusks on both sides showed that they were not to be trifled with. Anyone who offended their estate would probably die.

Bunduk waved his hand to signal for the large group to stop moving forward and he shouted, "Stand by and wait for the swamp to dissipate at noon. We will set off when it is at its weakest."

It was only at noon that Bunduk gave the order, "Regroup and set off!"

The group stood in unison, marching forward at the same pace. The mutated wild boars scattered on both sides did not dare to approach. They could already smell the terrifying aura emanating from these people, this kind of aura was something their group could not resist. Instead of doing so, they might as well give way to them.

Soon, Bunduk's team passed through this poisonous swamp. The fresh air was perfect. Bunduk looked at the Cypress Forest in front of him and sighed. In the war era, there was actually such a peaceful Cypress Forest.

However, there were countless undead soldiers inside. Bunduk did not know where these undead soldiers were produced from in the Cypress Forest, but he knew that as long as this Cypress Forest was burned, then those undead soldiers would suffer a great blow and wouldn't come to harass the elven colony for some time.

However, burning down such a beautiful Cypress Forest that had given him a good impression just a while ago, and yet he was going to destroy it in the next second?

Bunduk silently muttered in his heart.

However, being conflicted was never his style.

He ordered, "Fire elves, cast the fireball spell. Aim at the Cypress Forest."

The elves hesitated for a moment, obviously unwilling to burn down such a large area of the Cypress Forest.

Bunduk said seriously, "In this Cypress Forest, who knows how many nests of the undead soldiers there are. Rather than searching here painstakingly, it's more convenient to burn down this Cypress Forest."

Thus, a group of elves stood in front of the Cypress Forest.

In front of the fireball spell, even the lowest level fireball spell was a fatal blow to the Cypress Forest, not to mention that so many fireballs fell from the sky. They crashed into the Cypress Forest swiftly, and a cypress tree was set on fire, under the chain reaction, countless cypress trees were set on fire.

The flames soared into the sky, and there were a large number of mutated creatures inside. They wailed miserably in the fire.

The tongue of fire burned the entire Cypress Forest into ashes, swallowing all of them.

A cloud of turbid gas tried to escape in the fire, but it was quickly pulled back by the fire. Sometimes it turned into the image of an undead soldier, and sometimes it returned to a cloud of gas.

Just like that, under the tearing of the fire, it dissipated.

The world seemed to have become quiet all of a sudden.

Bunduk suddenly felt disappointed. He was disappointed that he had lost a good partner, a good colleague, like Pam. Because of these undead soldiers, he had even lost so many elite soldiers. Although those soldiers were not worth mentioning to him, however, everyone was the pillar of the family. If one fell, the entire family would collapse.

He was a family man, so he naturally understood this principle. The lives of soldiers were also very precious. If he had no other choice, Bunduk would definitely adopt a more reasonable battle strategy, and not be like Pam, his hesitation was mixed with too many emotions in the war. In the end, he and countless knights lost their lives in that war.

No one was born strong. Only by constantly learning from the failures of their predecessors could they become stronger!

Bunduk clenched his fists.

They won this battle!
