Chapter 485 - 491: Catastrophe Approaching?
Only a few short days.
A storm swept through the Earth Dragon Realm.
The Earth Dragon Realm, all nine provinces, simultaneously reported emergencies!
Red Forest Province, High Rock Province, Greenfield Province, West Sea Province, Thousand Islands Province, Wilderness Province, and more!
The governors of each major province received orders from the Mad Dragon King.
They began to execute the will of the Mad Dragon King one after another.
The activities of the humans in the Earth Dragon Realm finally triggered a massive indigenous counterattack, initiating a comprehensive extermination campaign targeting humans, originating from Dragon Ridge and covering the entire Earth Dragon Realm.
At the same time.
The Slaughter Dragon General and Hurricane Dragon General from Mist Dragon City have been dispatched. They will lead Dragon Ridge’s unbeatable army, planning to visit each major province one by one, supervising or cooperating with local forces to ensure the complete eradication of humans.
The storm came too quickly!
The people of the Earth Dragon Realm were not ready!
Even the powerful Azure Dragon team of Hang Yu had only been developing for about half a year in the Earth Dragon Realm, with many having entered the realm only a month or two earlier.
With the current strength of the humans.
It is almost impossible to resist the Mad Dragon King!
The Dragon Ridge Legion and local allied forces organized by various governors surpass the human forces in both elite quality and quantity at this stage.
The news reached the real world.
Once again becoming the latest news sensation.
In fact, even before this incident in the Earth Dragon Realm occurred, there had already been several war campaigns in the Spirit Realm targeting humans.
These wars almost always ended inevitably.
Every time such a war broke out.
It meant a total defeat for humans.
The territory and resources humans struggled to secure in the Spirit Realm would always be devastated overnight, with even tens of thousands of humans unable to return, perishing directly in the Spirit Realm.
How humans can discreetly operate, covertly grow, or build good relationships with indigenous forces in the Spirit Realm has long been a significant topic.
No one expected.
The Earth Dragon Realm would be next!
This place, long regarded as the "lighthouse of human presence in the Spirit Realm," was also facing strong rejection from indigenous forces.
Can the humans of the Earth Dragon Realm survive this crisis?
Upon receiving the news, Hang Yu initially planned to take Tasia to visit Celestial Desolation City and meet Nazgth but found the situation too tense to proceed.
Xu Tianhua and Zhao Ming found Hang Yu in haste.
The two reported the latest situation.
"Based on the intelligence we’ve gathered, armies have assembled from the east, west, and south. They will depart in two days and converge in Celestial Desolation City in four to five days, reaching Sand Spring City in seven to ten days."
"Too fast!"
"It’s coming too fast!"
"We are not prepared for a full-scale war!"
In the real world, preparing for war, especially ancient warfare, requires long preparation and marching time. After engagement, if it becomes a stalemate, the war could last for months or even years.
This world, however, is completely different.
The speed of war preparation and conclusion entirely depends on the initiator’s determination!
Because the individual strength gap is so vast in this world, the space for military strategy to play a role is minimal. Strong is strong, weak is weak; a direct attack ends the battle, with actual combat lasting only a few days, far from being a prolonged conflict.
Additionally.
Spirit Realm creatures, from an ordinary person’s perspective, each possess superhuman capabilities, able to travel thousands of miles effortlessly. As long as they have towns along the way to restock energy and food, no objective is too far for an assault.
The Great Lords are coming fiercely, and the speed of army assembly and action will be incredibly fast, leaving Sand Spring City little time for preparation.
Hang Yu said, "Don’t worry, Nazgth has secretly passed the intelligence to me. As long as Nazgth stands with us, these Lords cannot shake Sand Spring City."
Xu Tianhua asked, "The crucial question is, can we really trust this Spirit Realm Governor?"
Zhao Ming also said, "What if, at the critical moment, he turns on us? Sand Spring City would be finished!"
Their concerns are not unfounded.
Ultimately, Nazgth is still an indigenous of the Spirit Realm. It’s impossible for him to have no wariness towards humans; the crux of this war rests on Nazgth’s attitude.
Sand Spring City cannot withstand the coalition forces of the Three Great Lords.
If Nazgth remains neutral, the outcome is likely both sides, Sand Spring City and the Three Great Lords, suffering mutual destruction.
If Nazgth not only unhelps but takes advantage, Sand Spring City would have no chance of survival; even a single troop from Celestial Desolation City would cause considerable trouble for Sand Spring City.
Conversely, if Nazgth helps Sand Spring City counterattack the coalition at the crucial moment, this opportunity could potentially be used to utterly dismantle the forces of the three cities, eliminating their living strength.
Joining forces, Sand Spring City and Celestial Desolation City.
Could certainly seize control of Desert Province!
Hang Yu said, "Don’t worry, Nazgth is a member of the Azure Dragon. We have cross-signed a soul contract along with multiple contracts; he cannot attack me. As a member of the Blackthorn Alliance, he has no reason not to seize the opportunity to unify Desert Province!"
Nazgth opposes the Mad Dragon King.
But his strength alone cannot overcome the Mad Dragon King.
Humans are the only hope to overthrow the Mad Dragon King; as long as Nazgth isn’t a fool, he wouldn’t miss this opportunity.
Therefore, Hang Yu has reason to believe Nazgth will not remain neutral, but will instead secretly ally with Sand Spring City in a counter-extermination campaign.
"Summon all Lords!"
"We are convening a Leader conference!"
Hang Yu chooses to trust Nazgth, but this does not mean completely relying on him; he wants to show everyone that Sand Spring City is not a paper tiger!
The teleportation array network within Sand Spring City’s territory is now well-established, so after Hang Yu’s orders were issued, local Minor Lords arrived at Sand Spring City first through the teleportation array.
At the same time.
All the humans in Desert Province.
Almost all gathered at Sand Spring City.
At a glance, a vast crowd, numbering nearly ten thousand!
This mass wasn’t composed of minor soldiers but promising Intelligent Species with astonishing growth potential; the Minor Lords had never seen such a scene before, each was stunned!
It is fair to say!
While these people aren’t particularly strong right now.
It’s foreseeable that in the near future, they will become a force powerful enough to overturn the dynamics of the Earth Dragon Realm!
"Regarding the major events that have occurred in Desert Province over the past few days,"
"I think all of you Lords have caught wind of it."
"Celestial Desolation City, Dark Fire City, Gale City, Thousand Marsh City, these four cities have decided to mobilize troops, and attack Sand Spring City in unison!"
Upon hearing this.
Every Minor Lord turned ashen.
Even though they had received some news, they weren’t able to verify it. The Sand Spring City Lord personally acknowledged and announced this news, shattering the last sliver of hope in their hearts.
It’s over!
Including the Spirit Realm Governor!
Four of the strongest forces are attacking Sand Spring City simultaneously!
Under such circumstances, with Sand Spring City’s strength, how could it possibly withstand this? Wouldn’t Sand Spring City be doomed next!
Hang Yu’s gaze swept over these Minor Lords.
To keep it a secret, he couldn’t reveal his relationship with Nazgth!
So far, this matter is known to very few, even within the Azure Dragon circle; only top-tier members and Hang Yu’s close confidants are aware.
Upon hearing this dire news.
Every Minor Lord felt despair.
Feeling as if their good days were over, the doomsday of Sand Spring City had arrived; even most humans showed fear, doubting Sand Spring City’s ability to withstand this calamity.
It wasn’t that Sand Spring City was incompetent!
The enemy was simply too strong!
