Zhao Hai stood in front of the gate. He didn't want to be too high-profile, this wasn't his character. Although he was the Lyon Empire's King in name, he didn't know anything about the Empire. He didn't think of himself as the King of the Lyon Empire, he just wanted to stabilize the Empire. Therefore, he temporarily assumed the role of King.
He didn't think of himself as an important person. In his opinion, he was just an ordinary person in the continent. What he did was something that everyone in the continent should do. The reason why other people didn't do it was because they didn't have the help of the Space.
What Zhao Hai didn't know was that his current status was an important person in the continent. At this point, everyone in the continent knew that Zhao Hai was a Foreign Prince of the Beastmen, a Foreign Elder of the Dwarves, a Foreign Elder of the Elves, and a Foreign Admiral of the Fishmen. Naturally, this status was bestowed upon him by the Queen of the Fishmen.
Having so many statuses on one person was unprecedented in the continent. Because of this, everyone in the continent thought that Zhao Hai was an important person. Only Zhao Hai himself didn't have this kind of awareness.
The gates of Demon City slowly opened. What surprised Zhao Hai was the fact that the first person to come out was a Dark Mage wearing a magic robe. This fellow looked to be about 40 years old. He was wearing a magic robe that wasn't new. His hair was messy like grass, and his face had a sparse beard. He looked very thin, but at this moment, he looked like a strange uncle who just saw a loli. His face was flushed red as he looked at Zhao Hai. This made Zhao Hai startled.
This person was naturally Wei Gan. He was very excited, he didn't think that he would be able to see the God in his heart while he was guarding the city walls. This made him very happy, he was so excited that he couldn't control himself.
Under Zhao Hai's gaze, this strange looking Dark Mage quickly ran in front of Zhao Hai and knelt on the ground. Before Zhao Hai could react, he kissed Zhao Hai's shoes.
This made Zhao Hai stare, then he immediately pulled the Dark Mage and said, "Mister, there's no need to do anything. May I ask who you are?"
It was at this time that Wei Gan reacted, he discovered that Zhao Hai was asking for his name. He immediately bowed to Zhao Hai and then excitedly said, "Respected Mister Zhao Hai, my name is Wei Gan, I'm a Mage of the Gan Family in the city. On behalf of the Gan Family, I welcome your arrival. If possible, I would like to invite mister to the Gan Family as a guest."
Wei Gan was too excited, he didn't even think about inviting Zhao Hai to the Gan Family as a guest. In his mind, if Zhao Hai agrees to be a guest of the Gan Family, then it would be a great honor for the Gan Family.
Zhao Hai looked at Wei Gan, in fact, he also knew about the Gan Family's actions. Cai 'er had been monitoring the situation in Demon City. Zhao Hai was afraid that there would be people controlled by the Demons in Demon City. If the Demons were to attack, then it would be very troublesome. But what Zhao Hai didn't expect was that there was no one in Demon City who was controlled by the Demons. This was especially true for the Gan Family, they were the ones who advocated the war against the Demons. Because of this, Zhao Hai's impression of the Gan Family was very deep.
Zhao Hai immediately smiled and said, "So it's Mister Wei. I already know about the Gan Family's actions. I want to thank you on behalf of the people of the continent. Rest assured, I will certainly pay a visit to the Gan Family. But first, I have to go greet the guards, I still have some matters to discuss with them."
Wei Gan didn't dare to refuse, so he immediately said, "Mister, please. I don't dare to interfere with mister's business, but please come to the Gan Family. We will welcome you at home. I will immediately inform the family." Then he turned around and ran towards the city. With his speed, ordinary Warriors wouldn't be able to catch up with him.
Zhao Hai looked at Wei Gan's back and couldn't help but smile. He felt that the Gan Family's Mage was very interesting. At this time, a military officer arrived in front of Zhao Hai and then gave Zhao Hai a military salute and said, "I welcome the arrival of the Lyon Emperor. I am Captain Leonand of the East Gate Garrison."
Zhao Hai smiled and said, "Captain Leonand doesn't need to be so polite. There's no Emperor here, you can just call me Zhao Hai. We're now comrades-in-arms, comrades-in-arms to deal with the Demons."
Leo didn't think that Zhao Hai would be this easy to talk to, so he quickly replied, "Yes, Mister Zhao Hai. Mister, please come with me. I have already notified the General, please head straight to the General's Mansion."
Zhao Hai nodded, then he walked towards Demon City. At this time, a carriage came out of Demon City. The driver of this carriage was very powerful. Although the carriage was very fast, it still came to a stop in front of Zhao Hai. The driver ran down from the carriage and bowed to Zhao Hai. "Mister, please get on the carriage." Zhao Hai nodded, then walked towards Zhao Hai.
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and didn't decline. He sat on the carriage, then the carriage turned around and went straight towards the city. Leo didn't dare to be negligent, so after giving a few orders, he immediately led twenty of his men to ride horses and guard the carriage.
Zhao Hai wasn't surprised by this treatment. Although he didn't regard himself as an important person like the Emperor, he was still the Buda Clan's Patriarch. In Demon City, his status was considered to be the highest, so he had the right to enjoy this treatment.
Before long, Zhao Hai and the others arrived at the General's Mansion. The General's Mansion was actually quite empty. This was because there wasn't a General's Mansion in Demon City. The current General's Mansion was the residence of a merchant. Now that the merchant had returned to the Buddha Empire, his house was expropriated and turned into a temporary General's Mansion.
When the carriage arrived at the General's Mansion, before Zhao Hai could open the door, the door was already opened from the outside. Zhao Hai stared, he saw a middle-aged man wearing a General's uniform holding the handle of the carriage.
The General gave a bow to Zhao Hai and said, "Buddha Empire's General Besmir of Demon City welcomes Mister Zhao Hai."
Zhao Hai quickly got out of the carriage and gave a slight bow to the General, "General Besmir is too polite. How could I trouble General Besmir to open the door for me?"
Besmir smiled and said, "Of course. Mister has been running around for the sake of the people of the continent. Compared to Mister, I feel ashamed." Zhao Hai also quickly replied, "General is too polite, please." Then he and Besmir walked towards the General's Mansion.
The temporary General's Mansion wasn't very big, it was just a courtyard with two entrances. Besmir invited Zhao Hai to sit down in the living room. However, the living room now looked more like a war room. There were several maps hanging on the wall. In the middle of the room was a large table with a map on it. This map was a map of Demon City and the Demonic Abyss that has been explored outside Demon City.
Naturally, this map of the Demonic Abyss wasn't complete, it only showed some of the areas around the Demonic Abyss. However, this map was still very helpful for the upcoming battle.
Zhao Hai was very optimistic about Besmir's approach. He nodded and then turned to Besmir and said, "General is very diligent. May I know what the General's current arrangement is?"
Besmir didn't expect Zhao Hai to come to the Demonic Abyss and ask him about the layout of Demon City. However, he knew that this wasn't the time to be polite, so he immediately led Zhao Hai to the map and said, "Mister, please take a look. The terrain of the Demonic Abyss is very good for defense. This is because attacking Demon City from the Demonic Abyss is a gentle slope. Although this slope isn't very steep, it would still have an impact on the attacking army. Therefore, I plan to use this slope to block the Demon Army layer by layer. What does mister think?" Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Mister, please take a look.
Zhao Hai looked at the map and couldn't help but knit his brows. To be honest, there was no problem with Besmir's arrangement. However, there was a problem with this arrangement. If the enemy's number didn't reach a terrifying number, then this arrangement would be useless. On the contrary, it would cause a lot of losses, which would be very disadvantageous for the city.
When Besmir saw Zhao Hai frowning, it seems like he was dissatisfied with his arrangement. Besmir's heart couldn't help but skip a beat. Zhao Hai was an existence that he couldn't afford to offend. Not to mention him, even the Emperor of the Buddha Empire couldn't afford to offend Zhao Hai. Therefore, when Besmir saw Zhao Hai's frown, he knew that Zhao Hai wasn't satisfied with his arrangement. Naturally, Besmir was afraid.
What Zhao Hai was worried about was whether or not he should tell Besmir the number of the Demon army. He was afraid that if he told Besmir the number of the Demon army, it would destroy the General's confidence in defending the city. However, if he didn't tell Besmir the number of the Demon army, then how would he persuade Besmir to change his plan?
Zhao Hai frowned for a long time before he said, "There's no problem with the General's arrangement. However, I think the General might have overlooked one thing, and that is the number of the Demon army."
When Besmir heard Zhao Hai, he couldn't help but stare. Then he looked at the map with a heavy expression. The more he looked at it, the uglier his expression became. Then he turned to Zhao Hai and said, "Mister, you mean that the number of Demons would be a lot?"
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "General, please think about it. If the Demon Realm were to attack the Ark Continent, how could their number be small? Let's not talk about how big the Demon Realm is, just look at the Ark Continent. How many troops would we be able to muster? The Demon Realm's army wouldn't be any less than the Ark Continent's army. Moreover, the fighting strength of the Demons is very formidable. Last time, when I fought with a 9th rank Demon, I was able to cut his head open with a single slash. Not only did he not die, he even attacked me. Such fighting strength is truly astonishing. Therefore, I think that the General should withdraw the army from the outside of the city and focus on defending the city. As for the defensive lines, I'll take care of them. "
Upon hearing Zhao Hai, Besmir immediately understood what Zhao Hai meant. The strength of Zhao Hai's undead army had long been known in the continent. Besmir didn't doubt the strength of Zhao Hai's undead. Moreover, he didn't think about the number and strength of the Demon army. Now that he heard Zhao Hai, Besmir felt that there were some problems with his arrangement.
