Li Huailin left the players' matters to the players. As for the NPCs' matters, he left them to deal with the NPCs. However, he still wanted to check on the situation himself. Li Huailin took the Octopus people's Teleportation Portal and arrived at the main human city in the East Asia Region. As soon as he got off the Teleportation Portal, he saw a large group of soldiers surrounding the Teleportation Portal. However, they were all on his side.
"Your Majesty!" "Your Majesty!" "Your Majesty!" Everyone saluted Li Huailin. Yes, these were the soldiers of the First Legion that Li Huai had just established. Of course, the people inside recognized Li Huailin. After all, everyone in the First Legion had been forcibly pulled from the Humans' First Legion.
"Go ahead and call Legg and the others over," Li Huailin said as he walked. Of course, the soldiers immediately went to call the others over. Not long after, Li Huailin saw Legg and some other officials rushing over.
"Your Majesty!" A few people immediately came over and saluted Li Huailin.
Yes, Li Huailin had already transferred his First Legion over. This was the result of his discussion with Geert and the others. After all, this matter was not over yet. Although there were two Saint-leveled experts overseeing the city, there were millions of civilians in addition to the army. He could not let the Saint-leveled experts manage the civilians.
"Your Majesty, we have the city under control," Legg said. "However …"
"What's the matter?" Li Huailin asked.
"According to Emperor Mihout, his princes have already been sent out yesterday. I'm worried …" Legg said.
"You're worried that the army will come to the capital to rescue the king?" Li Huailin asked.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Legg nodded. "Since the princes have left, we can't hide the news here. It will be quite troublesome if they use the princes' names to lead the army here to rescue the king."
"Aren't there two Saint-leveled experts here?" Li Huailin spread his hands.
"Yes, I've already discussed this with the two lords." Legg nodded. "According to them, there is an organization similar to the Saint-level Alliance here. The two of them will probably be found out by the Saint-level Organization soon. If those princes use this name to ask the Saint-level Organization for help, they will probably agree to this request."
"I see." Li Huailin nodded. As expected, just like the Hua Xia Continent, there were also Saint-tier organizations here. Although the situation in each continent was different, the general template was still the same. The Saint-tiered Organization had stipulated that Saint-tiered Martial Sages were not allowed to participate in the wars of the mainland. If two Saint-tiered Martial Sages were to really take action, the Saint-tiered Organization would definitely intervene. Therefore, relying on this reason, the princes would probably not be afraid and would probably launch a war to rescue the Emperor.
"What about the Marines?" Li Huailin asked.
"This King Mihout has already signed the order to hand over the navy." Legg said, "I've already sent someone to the Second and Third Fleets' encampments, but there's been no news so far. It seems … Not too good."
"In other words, the Second and Third Fleets are also aware of the current situation and are unlikely to hand over the fleet directly, right?" Li Huailin asked.
"Yes, after all, the war is not over yet. This is not a treaty signed after the war is over." Legg nodded. Li Huailin understood what he meant. He was also wondering why Li Huailin did not end the war. After all, the other party was willing to surrender. As long as the war was over and the treaty was signed, it would be easier to take the treaty and ask the other party to hand over the fleet.
"What about the players?" Li Huailin did not answer this question and asked something else directly.
"We have currently closed the teleportation circle in the main city and are now expelling the players," Legg replied. Of course, the main city was already in a state of occupation at this time. Although King Mihout was not dead yet, he had been captured and locked up in prison. Therefore, he was in a state of captivity, different from the commander of Altretin City over there. Therefore, this city had already been occupied by Li Huailin. Of course, the players could not return to the city or revive here. However, it would still take some time for all the players in the city to be cleared out.
After all, this was the main city of the Human Race, and there were a lot of players. Although the combat power of the players could not compare to that of the soldiers, there was a difference of hundreds of thousands of players compared to tens of thousands of players. If it were not for the two Saint-leveled experts guarding the city, there would have been a riot.
"Your Majesty, we need more troops," Legg finally said. "Based on the current situation, it is very difficult for us to defend this place."
"This is really a little troublesome." Li Huailin facepalmed. The current situation was that Li Huailin really could not retreat. The reason was very simple. Of course, it was because of the teleportation circle. It was important to know that Li Huailin could now come here because of the Octopus people's teleportation circle, which was built in the main city. If Li Huailin retreated, it was very likely that the Octopus people would re-occupy the city and seal the teleportation circle. After all, they had come from this teleportation circle previously. The Octopus people would not be so stupid as to leave this teleportation circle for them.
If the teleportation circle was dismantled, it would be a little troublesome for Li Huailin to come over. After all, if they could not teleport, they could only come over by sea. The sea was the Dorimute Empire's strong suit. Li Huailin's navy was still nowhere to be seen. Wilken was still chasing after the ships of the First Fleet that were running around. Even if he captured all of them, he would still need ships to support them. Furthermore, the number and quality of the crew members were completely incomparable. Therefore, it was not very possible for them to come here by sea. Therefore, if Li Huailin retreated now, it would be more difficult for him to come here again.
However, it was still a little troublesome to send reinforcements at the moment. It was not that Li Huailin did not have any reinforcements. It was relatively easy to gather an army with just a casual call, but it would take time. Moreover, Li Huailin was really too lazy to do it. He did not have any thoughts about the East Asian continent. He just wanted the other party's fleet. He originally wanted to get the fleet and leave, but he did not expect it to be so troublesome.
Suddenly, someone said, "Your Majesty, actually, you don't have to be too anxious about this matter."
Li Huailin looked over. The person who spoke was a slightly thin young man standing behind Legg. When he looked at the other person's name, Li Huailin felt that he had some impression of him. "Uh … you are …"
"Your Majesty, I am Manaeus," Manaeus replied.
"I know." Of course, Li Huailin could see the name. Just as he was about to ask who it was, Li Huailin suddenly remembered. This guy seemed to be the strategist that he had sent to Legg previously. He had come up with a plan to attack the Machinery race. At that time, Li Huailin thought that this guy was quite smart, so he still remembered him. "What do you mean by not too anxious?"
"Your Majesty, although the other party's prince has already escaped, and he might even be in the military camp, the army will not advance so quickly," Maneus said. "I've already asked around. The Dorimut Empire has a total of three legions. The first and second legions are currently at the northern border. That's where the prince is most likely fleeing to. They're currently at war with the elves."
"Fighting with the elves?" Li Huailin was taken aback for a moment, but he immediately understood. "That's right. I killed the elves' Tree of Life last time, and the elves came to the humans."
"Did you do it, Your Majesty?" Maneus was taken aback for a moment. "Err … Anyway, the elves have come to the humans, and the armies of both sides are gathering in the north. Although the war has not started yet, the armies will not retreat in such a situation."
"Hmm." Li Huailin nodded. "Continue."
"The third legion is located in the east. Just like us, the Demons and humans are mortal enemies, so the third legion is there to deter the Demons in the east. It will be very difficult to mobilize this legion," Maneus continued. "Based on the current situation, the most likely scenario is that the first and second legion in the north have reached an agreement with the elves, and they will go south to rescue the king. It is almost impossible to mobilize the third legion in the east."
"I understand." Li Huailin nodded. After hearing Maneus' analysis, the situation became much clearer.
"Let's talk about the navy," Maneus continued. Maneus continued, "The second and third fleets are both inland fleets, and they are currently in the Thesolin inland sea. They also have their own defense area, and because they are fleets, the possibility of them returning to reinforce the elves is relatively low. So, for now, the only threat to us is the first and second legion in the north."
"Err … Where did you get this information?" Li Huailin asked.
"Your Majesty, this is their palace, so we can interrogate the officials," Maneus said.
"Oh." Li Huailin nodded and looked at Legg. Legg was having a headache. He had not thought of this.
"Then what do you think we should do?" Li Huailin did not care what Legg was thinking, and continued to ask Maneus.
"Your Majesty, I originally wanted to negotiate with the elves, but if you said that you destroyed the Tree of Life … then I think there is no need to negotiate," Maneus said with a bitter smile.
"Oh." Li Huailin nodded. It seemed like Maneus' original plan was to negotiate with the elves and cooperate with them. However, after the Tree of Life was destroyed, Li Huailin seemed to have become enemies with the entire elven race. It seemed like they were still hostile toward each other, so this method was not feasible.
"But Your Majesty, no matter what, we should focus on defending the first and second legion in the north," Maneus said after thinking for a while.
"Defense …" Li Huailin squinted his eyes. "So why don't we take the initiative to attack?"
"Huh?" Maneus was a little surprised.
"I mean, why don't we take the initiative to attack them? Why do we wait for them to attack us?" Li Huailin asked. "Legg, gather the legion. Now let me test out your new army."
