Chapter 594: Plotting Against the Demon Wolf Clan
“Yiqing, how did you determine that there would be a big battle here?”
Hidden in an underground cave, using a combination of Spirit and a map guide, the terrain and the movements of the creatures in the vicinity appeared in Zi Liyuan’s mind.
This was a valley backed by steep cliffs, with one side being a cliff and the other a precipice, and only a few kilometers of flat road in between.
At this moment, two armies of Demon Wolves were gathered at both ends of this road, their numbers stretching beyond description.
Through Xiao Guang’s monitoring from high above, it was conservatively estimated that the combined forces of both sides exceeded two million.
The reason Zi Liyuan and his team were able to dig out a hidden cave under the cliff in advance was due to the intel Liu Yiqing had gathered, allowing them to ambush here early.
“The two dynasties of the Demon Wolf Clan have basically divided the continent into two halves. Counting out flying over the borders, there are only four regions that serve as battlegrounds where each side can deploy armies of over a million.
As for other smaller paths, they are essentially blocked by fortresses, making stealthy infiltration nearly impossible.
Moreover, due to the demonic qi infusion, there aren’t many among the Demon Wolves with intelligence. They typically charge straight ahead like orcs.
This valley of cliffs and precipices is a place both sides vie for.
After passing through this checkpoint, both sides are met with open terrain, almost a plain.
So, battles often occur here. Just beyond the checkpoint, three cities have been built to block the exit, essentially sealing the pass.
If one side loses, the opposing side will push through, seizing a large portion of the territory.”
In summary, this is a critical strategic point, so they frequently set up formations and fight here, typically involving armies in the millions.
The reason they can do this is because the Demon Wolf Clan has extremely potent reproductive capabilities.
Litter sizes of seven or eight, sometimes even more than ten, are not uncommon.
The most impressive part is that Demon Wolf babies come in two forms.
Some are born in the humanoid Demon Wolf form while others are in wolf form.
The humanoid Demon Wolves are the ruling class, while the wolf forms are used as war beasts, generally becoming the mounts and partners of the humanoid Demon Wolves born in the same litter!
Thus, the vast majority of the Demon Wolf Clan’s troops are Demon Wolf Cavalry!
Wolf Blade Cavalry, Wolf Archer Cavalry, Wolf Spear Cavalry…
Essentially, this race revolves around cavalry; infantry are rare, primarily tasked with guarding cities and serving as garrison troops.
When encountering renowned infantry legions, they are indisputably elite units, capable of standing toe-to-toe with or even crushing most cavalry legions.
“Mo Yi, how’s the infiltration going?”
Zi Liyuan turned his head to look at Mo Yi on the other side and asked.
This time, Zi Liyuan only brought Liu Yiqing and Mo Yi with him, leaving the others in the Land of the Dead.
Christie Barbosa has already begun her seclusion, attempting to break through to the Seventh Grade Sanctum.
Shen Yurou was dragged away by Fan Yuer to create new mechanical constructs to help the territory develop faster and gather resources more efficiently.
Dilys received some refined and purified blood energy from Mo Yi to help purify her own bloodline quicker, accelerating her transformation into the Black Dragon King.
The Black Dragon King had been stuck at the peak of the Fifth Tier Epic for a long time, but the bloodline refinement of the Dragon race was an issue of time.
Dragons have extremely long lifespans, essentially measuring their adulthood in millennia, leading to slow growth in power.
However, Zi Liyuan did not favor one over the other, treating the Black Dragon King well since she was his mount, one he could ride day and night.
Thus, he gave her a large number of treasures that could purify her bloodline when he opened treasure chests.
It was estimated that after a year or so of seclusion, she would have no problems breaking through to the Sixth Tier Legendary and becoming the Black Dragon King.
Although the people around Zi Liyuan tended to break through to the Seventh Grade Sanctum often, and even had the ability to fight up a tier,
in reality, only four people had broken through to the Seventh Grade Sanctum.
Of course, this did not include those revived using the Law of Death who were at the Seventh Grade Sanctum.
Not to be harsh, but these resurrected Seventh Grade Sanctum beings, even if restricted by the Law of Death and obedient to his every command, were not easily loyal.
The Spider Queen from earlier was a prime example; she outwardly complied but made no effort in battles.
The attitudes of those entities now were not much different.
Therefore, Zi Liyuan never considered sending them out on important missions, treating them more as beasts of burden, keeping them at home to protect the cities.
A perfect example was the Insect Swarm Dominator who not only outwardly complied but also schemed secretly to break free from Zi Liyuan’s control.
The fact that the Insect Swarm’s heritage contained methods to break free from the control of laws was truly impressive.
No wonder it was one of the Four Great Scourges, with such terrifying depth.
As the Grand Lord of Death, Zi Liyuan himself also demonstrated a terrifying side.
The Undead Legion was a part of it, with the most crucial aspect being the ability to resurrect.
As long as he killed an enemy, obtained their corpse, and used a Soul Stone to extract a fragment of their soul, he could spend some resources to resurrect them as his servant.
