"My Lord, the enemy should be in this area, but we don't know where they went." The Undead army chased them all the way to the north. However, when they chased them to a more complicated area, they lost track of the Demons' movements and did not know where they were hiding.
"Split up and search. Come back as soon as you find anything." The Undead army now had more than 40,000 soldiers, while the Demons only had a little more than 1,000 soldiers. In this case, it was more convenient to split up and search for the Demons.
"Yes." Several Undead generals immediately split up with their soldiers and began to search for the Demons' troops in all directions.
"Why are the Demons running here?" Soudeis asked doubtfully. "There doesn't seem to be any big cities nearby that are good for defense."
"Over here …" Mattheon suddenly said, "Are we close to the human army?"
"Huh?" Hearing Mattheon's words, Soudeis also reacted. Originally, the Undead army was close to the south, while the human army was close to the north. Now, in order to catch up with Gordon's army, they had slowly moved to the north. Indeed, they were now close to the human's route.
"Where is the human army now?" Soudeis immediately asked the adjutant next to him.
"Now, the human army should be attacking Molidar City. Molidar City isn't very far from here," the adjutant next to him said immediately.
"Wait, I suddenly thought of something …" Mattheon suddenly said, "Could it be that the Demons have already allied with the human race?"
"Huh?" Soudeis suddenly froze. "How is that possible? Didn't the human race kill the Demons' emissary?"
"But it was a day ago," Mattheon said. "A lot of things can be done in a day, such as putting on a show for us …"
"Huh?" Hearing Mattheon's words, the Lords on this side began to think. This was really possible. The main thing was that they knew about the Godly Sword, so they were not sure what choice the human race would make. It was also possible that the human race would ally with the Demons.
"Impossible," Soudeis said, "Your Highness is …"
Soudeis almost said it, but he immediately realized the problem and stopped, which made Dennis and Fiona look at Soudeis with a strange look.
"What's wrong with His Highness?" Fiona asked curiously.
"This is the judgment of the human emperor … Besides, the commander on the other side is Colin of the Fourth Legion." Matthew, who knew Li Huailin's identity, immediately said. Of course, even though he didn't say it clearly, Sudaisi understood what he meant. In other words, even though Li Huailin had a lot of power, this matter was decided by the Human Emperor. He was just a Duke.
They didn't know the relationship between Li Huailin and Anthony, but after thinking about it this way, Matthew's logic made sense. If the Human Emperor agreed to the Demons' alliance plan, then as a Duke, Li Huailin might not be able to stop it.
"No, if that's the case, shouldn't His Highness know?" Soudeis said. He meant that if the human race agreed to ally with the Demons, then Li Huailin should inform them.
"How does His Highness know?" Fiona, who was next to him, asked curiously, "Sudais, are you hiding something from us?"
"No," Soudeis quickly said, "I mean, His Highness might know …"
"But His Highness isn't here right now …" Matthew understood and immediately said, "It's a little strange. I remember that His Highness told us to push forward yesterday, and then he would come and take a look. However, he hasn't shown up since. Since the Demons sent their messengers, His Highness has disappeared. This is really strange. Anyway, after this happened, regardless of whether the negotiation was successful or not, His Highness should have informed us."
"This …" After Matthew said this, Soudeis panicked. That's right. The Human race and the Demons were discussing such a big matter. Whether the negotiation was successful or not, His Highness should have known about the situation. Then, he should have informed them. However, His Highness hadn't come for more than a day. This … doesn't feel right.
"Could it be … His Highness was …" Soudeis said.
"I'm just saying that it's possible …" Matthew said, "If the Human race wants to harm us …"
"What the hell are you talking about?" Dennis, who was next to him, didn't understand. "Why is His Highness related to the Human race? What's the situation?"
While they were talking, an undead soldier suddenly rushed over with an injured body. As soon as he ran in front of the four lords, he fell to the ground. "Lord … Lord!"
"Huh? What's the matter? "Soudeis asked immediately.
"We … the troops we sent were attacked. The thirty-second squad was destroyed by the enemy!" the undead soldier said while lying on the ground.
"What?!" The four lords were all shocked. "How many people are there in the Demons' army? Where are they? "
"No … it's not the Demons' army!" the undead soldier said. "It's humans! It's human soldiers!"
"What? Human soldiers?" The four lords were stunned. Suddenly, they had a bad feeling. They were just discussing whether the Human race would ally with the Demons. They didn't expect to be attacked by human soldiers.
"Where are they? Take us there!" Soudeis thought for a moment and said immediately.
"Yes, this … this way …" the undead soldier immediately pointed in a direction and said.
Following the undead soldier, the undead army immediately arrived at the scene of the incident. It seemed to be a relatively narrow forest area. It was obvious that the battle was over. There were only corpses of the undead soldiers on the ground. They didn't see any living or dead enemies.
"Are we late?" Dennis looked around. It didn't seem like there were any enemy troops around.
"My Lord, it's indeed the thirty-second squad." A soldier went down to check the corpses, then came back and reported to Soudeis.
"Search around and see if you can find anything," Soudeis said with a wave of his hand.
"Yes!" The undead soldiers immediately split up and began to search. After a while, an undead soldier came back to report.
"Your Highness, there are no soldiers around, but we found arrows on the corpses. Please take a look, my Lord." After saying that, the soldier handed over two arrows.
"Huh?" Soudeis immediately looked at it and said, "These … these are arrows used by the Human army."
Every race used different types of arrows. Soudeis was experienced and knowledgeable, so he immediately knew that these were arrows used by the Human army.
"What!" Dennis said immediately. "Humans have allied with the Demons?"
"Wait …" Matthew suddenly said, "It's … a little strange."
"What's wrong?" Dennis asked. "Isn't it obvious? The Cannibal army attacked us. "
"But what is the enemy's purpose?" Matthew said, "The thirty-second squad has at most 200 people. If, and I mean if, the Human Race and the Demon Race have formed an alliance and are ready to attack the Undead Race together, then they should at least have a better plan. For example, when we attack the Demon Race's city, they can attack us from behind. In this way, they can easily defeat us and kill at least tens of thousands of our people. However, in this situation, a boring sneak attack only killed 200 of our squad members. Moreover, they also exposed the fact that they have formed an alliance with the Demon Race. This is a bit... strange."
"Maybe the enemy was looking for our main force, but they happened to run into our smaller force, so they eliminated them," Dennis said from the other side.
"How many of them are there?" Soudeis immediately asked the undead soldier who had just led the way.
"A lot, at least tens of thousands," the soldier who had led the way said immediately.
"See, I'm right," Dennis said. Dennis immediately said, "Maybe they're still looking for us nearby. Let's hurry up and get our revenge."
"Wait a minute..." Matthew said again, "I still don't think it's right. If they only found a small team, then we should just let them go. We are still allies with the Human Clan. Why do we need to destroy them to expose ourselves? We just need to continue to look for our main force."
"Maybe they are afraid that we will find out that they are already nearby," Dennis said. "Plus, the enemy's commander may not think so much."
"The fourth legion will be led by Colin. He is an old general with experience. At least, he should be able to understand these points," Matthew said. "Anyway, I don't think it's right. We can't act rashly. Let's directly send an envoy to the Humans and ask them about the situation."
"That's good." Sudaisi also said, "Then let's do it this way. We'll send people to the humans to ask about the situation."
The undead on this side immediately sent someone to look for the Humans. However, Soudeis did not expect that as soon as the envoy of the undead departed, the Demons would immediately report the time and route of the envoy.
The undead here were in trouble, but what about Li Huailin's people? In fact, in the real world, Li Huailin was also in big trouble. The location was the headquarters of the Tiancheng Group. The trouble happened just when Li Huailin wanted to go back.
