After Zhao Hai listened to Lizzy, he nodded with satisfaction and said, "Good, very good. These defensive lines will not only deal with the Demons, but also the Divine Race. However, we still need to prepare for our retreat. Now that the Divine Race has made such a big move, the Buddha Empire would be hard to defend. If we keep defending the Buddha Empire, then the Demons and the Divine Race might join forces to deal with us. If we give up a part of the territory, then the Buddha Empire would become a battlefield for the Demons and the Divine Race. Therefore, you need to be prepared. Don't put too many supplies between the defensive lines, otherwise, it would affect our retreat. I don't want our supplies to fall into the hands of the enemy when we retreat."
Lizzy and the others nodded. Zhao Hai looked at them and said, "Now that you've made your preparations, you can go and rest. I'll go out and take a look. If those people don't see us, then they might panic."
Lizzy and the others nodded. Then Laura looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Big Brother Hai, you need to be careful. The continent can't do without you. Without you, the war would be lost."
Fortunately, Shiying gave me the Magic Core, which greatly improved my strength. Moreover, Bubble also placed the lotus inside the Blood Pool. That lotus has now become my treasure. With it, my attack strength has become even more formidable. Even if the Demon Dragon King and the others attack me together, they still wouldn't be my opponent. "Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said," Don't worry, I won't die that easily. To tell you the truth, I wasn't injured at all, I just made a breakthrough. Because of this, I needed to absorb a lot of energy. Therefore, I went to Bubble's body to absorb energy from the Blood Pool. Fortunately, Shiying gave me the Magic Core, which greatly improved my strength. Moreover, Bubble also placed the lotus inside the Blood Pool.
When Laura and the others heard Zhao Hai, they relaxed. They were afraid that Zhao Hai would have an accident or get injured. That would have a huge impact on the continent's war. Now, they could finally feel relieved.
The worries of Laura and the others weren't unfounded. The Space belonged to Zhao Hai, so if Zhao Hai was really injured, then the Space might not be able to be used. Without the Space, it would be very difficult for them to mobilize troops. It would also be very difficult for them to transport supplies. Most importantly, without the Space, the undead would also disappear. The Ark Continent could only rely on the armies of the various races to resist the Divine Race and the Demons. For the people of the Ark Continent, this was an absolute disaster.
Zhao Hai looked at Laura and the others, then he smiled faintly and said, "Alright, there's no need to worry about me. You can go and rest while I take a look outside. There's no need for you to worry about the mobilization of troops. It's just a matter of opening the spatial passage. Have Cai 'er handle it.
Cai 'er smiled and said, "Young Master is too polite. The Space was originally under my control. Moreover, I don't need to rest. Young Master can rest assured, I'll take care of everything."
Zhao Hai nodded, then he turned to Laura and the others and said, "Alright, you go and rest. I'll go out with Shue. Berry, you stay here and rest as well. You've worked hard these past few days."
Berry smiled and said, "I'm fine. Brother Hai, I'll go with you. I'm already a God-rank expert, I don't need to rest."
Zhao Hai looked at Berry, then he nodded and said, "Alright, let's go. You and Shue need to fight for a long time before you can comprehend your own Domain. Alright, let's go." Then Zhao Hai's body flashed as he led Berry and Shue out of the Space. This time, Zhao Hai appeared in Demon City. He wanted to go there first before heading to Rising Sun City.
Sure enough, there wasn't a single person in Demon City. Everyone had already retreated, leaving behind an empty city. Zhao Hai looked at Demon City and couldn't help but sigh. At this time, Demon City looked like a ghost town. There wasn't a single sound coming from the city, the ground was littered with debris. It was a bleak scene. Fortunately, there weren't many people who died in the war.
Shue couldn't help but sigh as he looked at Demon City. Just yesterday, this place was filled with people. But now, it was completely deserted. The mercenaries and adventurers here, whether they were willing or not, they had to give up their homes. This made Shue feel sad.
Zhao Hai flew above Demon City and looked at the Demon Camp in the distance. The Demons were still very busy, it seems like they didn't know how to get tired. They were still desperately building the city. But what made Zhao Hai excited was the fact that there were now ten God-ranks in the Demon Camp. Zhao Hai could feel their auras.
Zhao Hai sighed and said, "It seems like the Demon Realm's experts are on their way. But this is also good. The more powerful they are, the more they would be able to restrict the Divine Race. Alright, let's go. After we arrive at Rising Sun City, I'll leave some God-ranked undead there. After that, we'll go to the Radiant Empire and take a look. The Divine Race made such a big move, it's impossible for them to stay still."
After he said that, Zhao Hai turned around and entered the Space. Then he immediately arrived at Rising Sun City. Rising Sun City was the closest city to Demon City. There were only five small cities between Rising Sun City and Demon City. Because of this, Rising Sun City became the second line of defense after Demon City.
Rising Sun City was a large city with a population of more than a million. But now, it has been turned into a huge military camp. In the distance between Rising Sun City and Demon City, besides some cavalry scouts, there were no other people.
Besmir and the others retreated to Rising Sun City through the Space's passage yesterday. They received Zhao Hai's order to retreat, but Zhao Hai didn't appear. This made them very worried.
It wasn't only Besmir who was worried, everyone who came to Rising Sun City was also worried. Although they retreated to Zhao Hai's Space Passage, they still haven't seen Zhao Hai. This was what they were worried about the most.
When they retreated to Rising Sun City, they received Zhao Hai's order. However, it wasn't Zhao Hai himself who did it, it was his undead subordinates. Without seeing Zhao Hai, they couldn't help but feel uneasy.
Everyone who came out of Demon City was very worried. Fortunately, their hearts were still stable. No matter what, Zhao Hai's Space Passage was still usable. This meant that Zhao Hai was fine. Perhaps he was just caught up in something.
Zhao Hai didn't ride the Bone Dragon this time. Instead, he directly appeared in Rising Sun City. When Zhao Hai appeared, he was immediately spotted by the Elven Archers. They couldn't help but cheer.
Although the Elves were arrogant, they weren't fools. When Zhao Hai fought against the Demons, they already knew about Zhao Hai's strength. They were very clear that if Zhao Hai wasn't there, then it would be impossible for them to stop the Demons.
Zhao Hai looked at the people inside Rising Sun City. Rising Sun City had about 500 thousand soldiers, most of which came from Demon City. This made Zhao Hai feel relieved. Zhao Hai looked at the city's defenders and smiled. Then he waved his hand as a large number of undead appeared outside the city. Zhao Hai looked at the city's defenders and smiled. Then he waved his hand as a large number of undead appeared outside the city.
This caused the people in the city to cheer. When these people saw Zhao Hai, they felt relieved. Even the undead that they didn't like looked very cute now.
Zhao Hai landed in the city from the Space. When he saw a Dwarf not far from him, he immediately smiled and said, "Brother, the General's Mansion is over there. I have some matters to discuss with the General."
The Dwarf immediately replied, "Elder, I'll take you there." Then his two short legs quickly ran forward. Zhao Hai looked at the Dwarf and couldn't help but smile. Then he led Berry and Shue forward.
Before long, they arrived at Rising Sun City's City Lord's Mansion. This place used to be the City Lord's Mansion, but now it has been changed to the General's Mansion. Besmir and the others were here, the highest ranking officer in Rising Sun City was still Besmir. There were also some reinforcements, but their numbers weren't very high.
When Zhao Hai arrived at the General's Mansion, the guards at the gate immediately gave Zhao Hai a salute. Then one of the guards didn't say anything and ran towards the mansion, "Mister Zhao Hai is here, Mister Zhao Hai is here." Zhao Hai was amused by the guard. Then he turned to the Dwarf and said, "Thank you, Brother. Take this and drink." Then he threw a bottle of purified Milk Wine to the Dwarf.
The Dwarf excitedly received the bottle. Then he bowed to Zhao Hai and said, "Thank you, Elder." Then he turned around and ran away. Looking at his appearance, it seems like he wanted to show off to his companions. Zhao Hai didn't care about it and just walked towards the General's Mansion.
As soon as Zhao Hai entered the mansion, he saw Besmir, Julian, Gellar, and Barres greet him. Behind them were several Human soldiers. These soldiers looked at Zhao Hai with curious eyes.
Besmir and the others arrived in front of Zhao Hai. At the same time, they gave Zhao Hai a salute and said, "Mister, welcome. Mister, please come in."
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "Alright, there's no need to be polite. How is it? Has everything been arranged?"
Besmir immediately replied, "Mister can rest assured, everything has been arranged. Not only here, Lower Flat City, Lower Finger City, Water Wheel City, and Broad Equality City have also been arranged. Mister, let's talk inside." Zhao Hai nodded. Then he followed Besmir and the others to the City Lord's Mansion's hall. The place had been transformed into a huge war room. This war room was much better than the one in Demon City. Not only were there a lot of maps hanging on the walls, there were also a few soldiers who were busy. In the middle of the hall, there was a simple sand table.
Zhao Hai looked around, then he nodded with satisfaction and said, "Good, very good. This looks more like a war room. Haha. Come, tell me about it." While talking, Zhao Hai walked towards the sand table.
Besmir and the others immediately went in front of the sand table. Besmir looked at the sand table and said, "Because time is tight, we can only make this simple sand table. Right now, all the cities outside Rising Sun City have troops stationed there. Most of them are cavalry with good mobility. In order to make it more convenient to fight and retreat between the cities, the Dwarf brothers are digging tunnels between the cities. However, the workload is too big, so we can't see any results yet. I want to connect the cities behind Rising Sun City with the tunnels first. Even if we can't dig a big tunnel, we still need to connect them first. This way, whether it's reinforcements or retreating, we can do it in the tunnels, reducing the chances of being discovered."
