Chapter 138 - 13: Only the Victor Is King
The contract was successfully concluded.
"Tonight, thirty thousand troops will arrive here," Udi said, straightforwardly, after seeing the successful conclusion of the contract.
Leanna nodded slightly, watching him with a look that suggested it was time for him to leave.
Before Udi left, he glanced at the wild dwarf caster standing dumbfounded at the bottom of the water, a flicker of doubt passing through his mind.
This ’Slytherin’, compared to the powerful master-level mage Slytherin that Udi had encountered before, was much weaker.
"Using a type of enslavement magic and accidentally damaging the brain?" Udi guessed to himself.
But Leanna didn’t seem to know any spells...
Forget it, it doesn’t matter to him anyway. After all, it’s merely a master-level mage whose power has been greatly weakened, posing no threat to him.
Udi left.
In Leanna’s gaze, he gracefully stepped into the Light Gate and teleported away.
It was only then that Leanna quietly let out a sigh of relief.
The last time she felt such pressure was decades ago in a standoff with the Centaur King Morgan... To call it battle is an overstatement, as Leanna was far from being Morgan’s match; she merely stayed airborne a thousand meters high, breathing Dragon Breath.
It wasn’t that she didn’t want to come down; it was that if she did, she would die.
Back then, she had just come of age and reached Level 15 in terms of biological level, but her spiritual ability profession ’Mountain Faithful’ wasn’t properly cultivated yet. A close-range battle would likely not last more than ten rounds against Morgan. Morgan had already reached Level 19, and his cultivation of the Hurricane Knight profession suited him well, allowing him to unleash terrifying speed and destructive power.
A swing of his giant sword could carve out an entire hill. If such an attack landed on Leanna back then, it could take away half her life with one strike.
"Udi..." Leanna’s eyes flashed with contemplation.
Night.
Thirty thousand Dragon Nest followers crossed over a thousand kilometers to arrive near the Rotting Swamp.
When Leanna flew out from the Dragon Nest, she was stunned by the scene in the forest.
The dark forest, under the illumination of the full moon, seemed to be shrouded in a faint silver veil.
At one glance, countless monster warriors stood proudly upon the earth. They were generally two meters tall, with muscles all over their body, clad in armor, and armed with weapons. Their gazes were filled with excitement and eager anticipation.
Upon seeing the Black Dragon flying overhead, they knelt one knee to swear allegiance.
"Great Queen of Darkness, your Dragon Wings cover the sky, your Dragon Breath destroys the earth...."
The flattery and allegiance of tens of thousands of monster warriors created a deafening roar, stirring even the previously calm Leanna with passionate excitement; she felt... this kind of scene was also quite nice.
"Perhaps I can also cultivate a follower army in the future, it won’t require much energy anyway..." Leanna mused to herself.
The Giant Demon Gray, gathered at another side with a sparse group of demons, widened his eyes as he looked at the thirty thousand monster army.
He glanced behind him at the Giant Demon picking his nose, the goblins catching snakes and worms on the ground, and the kobolds barking and cursing at each other; almost all lacked armor, wielding weapons like hardwood sticks and rotten iron... just a group of misfits, disgraceful.
"Set off, attack the kingdom! Plunder the treasures!" Leanna said joyfully, her Dragon’s Roar thundering as she led the follower army towards the southeast.
The centaur army was probably nearing the border of the Wilderness Plains by now; she couldn’t be left too far behind, or she wouldn’t even get to taste the soup.
The thirty thousand monster warriors gifted by Udi, combined with the miscellaneous monster troops gathered in the Dark Dragon Nest Territory, totaled over thirty-six thousand monsters, marching grandly forward.
Where the monster army passed, life was extinguished.
Just three hours before the departure of Leanna’s commanded Dark Dragon Nest army.
The Mountain Stream Dragon Nest, the leader of the Wild Clan, Jackal Wolfman Bryan, also led ten thousand monster troops out of the Dragon Nest Territory, heading south.
In this ten thousand monster army.
Five hundred Wolf Cavalry of the Jackal Wolfmen.
Five hundred Giant Demon Warriors led by Mondo.
One thousand combined Goatman Warriors, Bear Goblins Warriors, and Celestial Dogman Assassins working in small units.
Four thousand Dogman Warriors led by Shiqiang Black Blood of the Black Blood Race.
Four thousand Goblin Warriors led by the Big Goblin Guli Green Forest of the Green Forest Race.
And thirty-six Dragon-descendant Harpy Maids volunteering to oversee the battle, with the Harpy Leader named Ava Hei Yu.
This monster army was elite, with over three thousand warriors at Level 5 or higher, though most were Level 5-6, at the lower end of mid-level creatures.
Furthermore, the strength of the five commanders wasn’t weak either.
The strongest was the overall commander, Level 14 Jackal Wolfman Leader Bryan Wild. Following was the Giant Demon Leader Mondo Bonecrusher, Level 12. Next was the Harpy Ava Hei Yu, Level 10.
Second Leader Shiqiang Black Blood of the Kobolds and Goblin rising star genius Guli Green Forest were both at the ninth level peak, teetering on the edge of breaking into the advanced realm.
Besides, there were many elite monster unit leaders at Level 7-8 or even Level 9. They mostly followed Udi from the start, surviving through consecutive battles and territorial expansions with rich and seasoned combat experience.
This time, the goal of the ten thousand Dragon Nest army was to assist the Higlind family in occupying the Southern Region of the Wilderness Plains.
