"If you're here to seek an army? I can only tell you that you've come to the wrong place. "
The Beastman laughed as if he had heard a joke.
He called himself Zeba, and was a farmer. He lived nearby and had a piece of fertile land. Every day, after working in the fields, he liked to go to a hotel in the city for a drink or two. Reina just happened to be preparing to go back, so the two of them went back together. On the way back, they chatted.
"Why? Isn't this the most powerful Demon Empire? "
Reina asked, puzzled.
"Because after our Demon King passed away, our highest commander, Hala, disbanded all of our armies. Apart from the Great Ufa Forest, all of the other races were allowed to become independent, including us beastmen. The majority of the Wussen Empire's armies were formed from these races. If you want to ask Hala for an army, I'm afraid she won't be able to help you, because there are no armies here. "
"Her actions were very wise. Right now, there is no one in the world who can command those armies. Keeping them around will only add to our troubles. Also, think about how much money and food it would take to feed them. Letting them leave on their own is the best solution. We don't have any bad blood with them, nor do we have any losses. We are like half-brothers. In name, we are still allies."
Reina lowered her head, wondering if she had come to the wrong place. Perhaps she should have listened to Lilith's suggestion and gathered the human armies first.
Right now, she didn't know what to do. Had the once incomparably powerful Wussen Empire really declined to this extent?
Looking at this distressed human, Zeba was also puzzled.
"Why do you want an army? Do you want to avenge your master?"
He suddenly asked.
Reina shook her head. She told him about the Evil Spirits. Hearing her words, Zeba revealed a shocked expression.
"The resurrected ancient Demon King and the ancient hero. Oh! Heavens, you're not joking, are you? Those Evil Spirits are just walking corpses without thoughts, aren't they? "
He stopped, looking at Reina in disbelief.
"It used to be like this, but not now. Rockefeller has formed the Darkspirit Army, and no country in the world can fight against it. If we don't unite, all the races in the world will be extinct, and all of them will become Darkspirits." Reina believed so. She didn't know what this meant to Rockfeller, but he definitely had a bigger conspiracy.
"Perhaps he's just a new Demon King, just like Lord Richard. Everyone thought that he could obtain the entire world, but in the end …"
Zeba sighed, seemingly feeling sorry for Richard.
"They're different! Rockefeller wanted to destroy all civilizations! He wants to turn this world into a land of death. What he wants is death, not domination. Death can make him stronger and stronger. If we don't stop him now, no one will be able to stop him in the future. "
Reina's voice made the white wolf feel uneasy. It suddenly lowered its head and hid behind Zeba. Under its frightening appearance, it actually hid a timid heart.
"If this is true, how could we not … Ah! She did hide it from us. I should have known that. "
Zeba's expression changed. He frowned and asked, "What's the situation now? What's the situation with the Orcs? "
"I don't know. I only know that the humans have been defeated. Their army has been defeated head-on, and the city walls can't stop the enemy's attack. They are constantly retreating, probably wanting to gather more troops. But every battle will make the Darkspirit Army stronger, and now the humans can no longer fight against Rockefeller alone. "
"If it's true, then the situation is quite bad. If the humans can be forced into such a situation, the other races are not optimistic. I'm worried about my kin. They are very brave and good at fighting, but it's precisely because of this that I'm more worried about them. "
Zeba knew Bru's character. Once the Darkspirits invaded the territory, he would personally lead the army to eliminate them. If they won every battle, then naturally there was no need to worry. But if they lost one battle, then it would be like a rolling snowball. A large number of Darkspirit soldiers would be born from the battlefield, resulting in more battles. Even if the Orcs could fight, they could not fight tirelessly.
He was very worried about the situation of his kin. He originally thought that the world would return to its original state, and he could spend the rest of his life here in peace. But if what this human girl said was true, then the Orcs would be in danger of extinction.
"I'm going to see Hala and ask about this. Also, human girl, if you want an army, this is not the place you should be, but I can give you some advice. "
Hearing this, Reina looked at him quietly.
Zeba casually plucked a handful of green grains and said, "Do you know why Lord Richard chose this place as his capital?"
Reina shook her head. She knew very little about her master.
"It's because of food. This place is the lifeline of the Wussen Empire. The reason why he was able to command an army of a million was because he had enough logistics. The food here is enough to feed an army of ten million. It was so in the past, and it is still so now. The first thing he did was not to build an army, but to ensure that he had enough food. Right now, the entire world is in the midst of war. Food will be very scarce. If you have the ability to transport food out. "
As he spoke, he placed the heavy ear of grain in Reina's hand. He said meaningfully, "Then you can easily obtain an army. The prerequisite is that you have the ability, just like Lord Richard."
After saying this, Zeba said goodbye to her and walked towards the city.
Reina stood in place. Zeba's words reminded her that there seemed to be a faintly discernible path in the pitch-black lake. Countless glowing insects were guiding her down.
She suddenly thought of many things. What the Wussen Empire possessed was not just food. There were many other things that could not be measured by material means. It was formed by many different races. This in itself was a special symbol. It could tell everyone in the world that demons, humans, and elves could coexist! And the people living in the Wussen Empire were also concerned with the fate of their own race. They would very likely respond to Reina's call!
That's right. They would definitely stand up. The Wussen Empire still had relations with the other demon races. This would be the key to opening a path for her!
Reina seemed to see hope. She put the ear of grain into her pocket, then turned to look at the towering World Tree.
First, the first thing she needed to do was to obtain the approval and assistance of the entire Wussen Empire.
