Chapter 1355 - 1261: Preparations for Counterattacking the Demon Race City
Elena was overjoyed to receive a gift from Da Fei, her face full of charm as she said, "Thank you, my lord. I’ve heard that in the customs of the surface world, giving a ring has a special meaning. Is that what you mean, my lord?"
Anlicia, meanwhile, waved her hands defensively and earnestly said, "No! No! That’s not what it means at all!"
Da Fei laughed in surprise; jealousy! Anlicia must be jealous! Speaking of which, I should give her some Divine Artifact too. It’s just that, unfortunately, I’ve never had any good equipment suited for a Ranger.
Elena laughed and said, "In any case, this is a testament to my closeness with my lord. I will continue to serve you with all my strength!"
——System Prompt: Your Vice Hero Elena has received the gift "Divine Artifact Fire Phoenix Magic Ring" from you, and her affection towards you has increased to "Intimate"!
Oh yeah! This "Intimate" is exactly what I wanted! Just thinking that Elena might become a queen and become independent in the future makes the feeling of loss in my heart impossible to make up for, no matter the benefits. Only this "Intimate" can be a consolation.
Speaking of the Phoenix from which this ring dropped, judging by the achievement "Abyss Enemy" I received upon killing it rather than "God Slayer," this Fire Phoenix actually hasn’t reached the Demon God-level yet, and thus isn’t qualified for a world broadcast. It makes sense; compared to the Demon God-level blood Sea Demon King and the Sate Giant Bear, the process of battling this Phoenix was much easier, indicating that the enemy must have harder tricks up their sleeve. The real battle is just beginning. Bring it on, my Holy Vine Space can’t wait!
At that moment, Selvia came over to report: "Captain, I just received a message from Deirdre. She has infiltrated the fleeing enemy troops and reached the Demon Army’s rear fortress city, Demon Flame City. She will report back once she scouts the detailed information."
Da Fei’s eyebrows twitched: "Good, let’s clean up the field quickly while we wait for her news."
With the General’s help, Da Fei no longer had to worry about supplies and focused entirely on transporting the corpses.
At Beijing Time 12 noon, the Sky Ship finished sweeping the area along the lake. In this frenzy of a feast, Nasir had just barely gotten full, still some way off from producing beetles. As for the Holy Vine Space’s camp, it produced three more batches of Evil Demons, totaling over a hundred. This is still a significant distance from Tamilia’s initial goal of forming an Evil Demon Army of 1,000.
The bottom line is that most of the remaining enemy forces fled, not leaving corpses, and the overall quality of the corpses wasn’t high. Upon realizing his grievance with corpses, Da Fei suddenly discovered that perhaps the Undead Race might suit him best?
After the cleanup, the Flying ship teleported back to the lake area where the Douglas slime monsters were, to continue receiving energy. It is believed that after receiving this batch of energy, the Evil Demon camp could produce a few more batches of Evil Demons. Until the number of Evil Demons reaches a scale, Da Fei doesn’t plan on conducting such large-scale battles again, as every opportunity doesn’t come with someone as helpful as the General to assist in cleaning up."
In the meantime, Da Fei went to the Holy Vine Space to check the situation.
At this moment, three elders greeted him with relief: "Warrior, incredible! To be honest, we did harbor some thoughts about the King’s orders initially, as we wondered if it was worth risking leaving our city defense positions to aid the warrior. Now, it seems, Your Majesty truly has insights to recognize talent! Lord Silena’s recognition of you is indeed justified."
"So us three old guys should also step up and not let the young ones underestimate us!"
Da Fei chuckled, "The three elders flatter me!"
Recalling his big plan, along with Deirdre’s big plan, Da Fei had an idea and probed, "Do you three elders remember what I said before we came? I said, why should only the enemy attack our city? We should also counterattack the enemy’s city!"
The three elders burst out laughing: "Of course, we remember. Before, we thought it was just the warrior’s bold words, but judging by your current performance, it seems you truly have that strength! Of course, the key is you must know where the enemy city is."
Da Fei hurriedly said, "The enemy’s city, being so big, will eventually be discovered by us. The key is whether the three elders are willing to assist me in attacking the enemy city?"
The three elders became solemn, "Assisting the warrior is both the King’s order and our current wish. As long as the warrior is willing to do it, we three old bones will accompany you!"
Da Fei suppressed his inner joy and asked one last question, "If during our siege, Wall No. 3 is attacked by the Demon Army, and you three elders cannot return, what then? The King’s order is that you must return before Wall No. 3 gets into trouble."
The three were taken aback, then looked at each other, chuckling, "Indeed, it’s a difficult matter to handle. But, we actually bear no responsibility; the key is to see the warrior’s accountability."
Accountability, huh? Da Fei immediately realized, "Are you saying that if the damage we cause to the enemy city far exceeds that which the enemy does to our city, the King wouldn’t have much of a problem with it, right?"
The three elders sighed, "Although the lives of our people are not for comparison against the enemy, it’s an unfortunate aspect of war."
That’s agreement! Da Fei felt a weight lifted from his heart: "Understood! Rest assured, three elders, I will fight to ensure the enemy loses all will to fight and bring this war to a swift end."
"Good! We appreciate the warrior’s determination!"
Just as Da Fei was chatting, Da Fei’s phone rang. Hearing the ringtone, he immediately knew it was Little Li.
Da Fei took off his helmet and answered the call, "Little Li, what’s up?"
Little Li chuckled, "It’s noon. Have you eaten yet?"
Da Fei laughed, "To get the big job done, I ate early at 11. Now it’s accomplished, far smoother than expected. Have you eaten?"
Little Li softly laughed, "I just woke up and am about to make lunch. I’m reminding you not to be too busy, make sure to eat regularly."
Da Fei sighed, "You’re the one who should maintain regularity. After this National War, don’t stay up all night, okay?"
Little Li laughed, "Got it! Also, the current National War is going well. The Japan Team can’t hold on much longer. In a day or two, we’ll push them back to Japan and end the National War."
Da Fei was pleased, "Good, put some effort to finish them, now hurry and have lunch."
"Got it."
After hanging up the call, Da Fei was filled with emotions. Not only have Little Li’s caring calls become more frequent, but her tone just now was also nostalgically unforgettable. Back when I got into college and Little Li was just in middle school, she admired me so much, and her tone to me was just like this! As for later, let’s not mention it. As for now, hehe! Haha!
Suddenly, Da Fei once again realized that Little Li was quite a pragmatic woman, wasn’t she? Well, practicality is good, hahaha! That makes me, as her big brother, feel at ease.
There’s still plenty of free time, so I’ll charge the Light Tears while idling, and take a quick nap during the break. As her big brother, I must live up to the family’s expectations and take good care of myself. My health is my greatest asset for the National War. (To be continued.
