Chapter 249: Chapter 249 Li Haotian: What shall we have for breakfast?

Grom cursed in fear and then said, "Although I don’t know the exact number, there are many with strong individual power among the races in our tribe."

"I estimate there must be at least one to two hundred thousand half-undead."

Hearing this number, Elf King Orelia took a deep breath.

One to two hundred thousand?

My God!

Varian’s face twitched violently.

He murmured, "One to two hundred thousand? Previously, this was probably the total number of all combat-capable races on the tribal side that could go to war, right?"

Turayang, with a grim expression, said, "While the tribes don’t have conscription for all, their racial talent is just naturally good; as soon as they’re adults, they’re practically all qualified warriors or mages."

"This means, the Skeleton King essentially turned their entire core fighting population into half-undead!"

"And those remaining, the elderly, women, and children, were the ones he abandoned and turned directly into pure undead creatures." freewebnøvel.com

Li Haotian recalled the tens of thousands of undead creatures he had just wiped out, a light of understanding flashing in his eyes.

"No wonder those guys all looked either too old or too young, and their experience points were so low. Turns out they were the cannon fodder sent by the Skeleton King!"

Beside him, Frey said worriedly, "Brother Haotian, if that’s really the case, then you..."

Orelia and the others were also a bit hesitant.

They had witnessed Li Haotian’s solo battle against the Half-orc army at Xiquan Fortress, as well as the spectacular scene when he directed focus fire to kill the Witch Demon King.

But if that was all of Li Haotian’s strength, could he really handle more than five hundred thousand undead troops, along with a Skeleton King at least on the same level as the Witch Demon King?

Unexpectedly, Li Haotian wore a look of anticipation and said, "No worries, let them come. It would be best if they come in full force!"

"If there are too few of them, I’d be afraid of wasting the Heavenly Spirit Pill’s double time!"

The Five Great Saints exchanged surprised glances.

Li Haotian seemed not to take that army of five hundred thousand undead seriously at all!

Could it be that he still had much strength hidden?

Or had he made significant progress in his training during this time?

Recalling Li Haotian’s "micro-operations" on the battlefield before, Orelia and the others felt some reassurance returning, and their expressions revealed curiosity and anticipation once again.

With some confidence in their hearts, everyone was no longer as worried about the imminent attack from the Skeleton King, and turned their attention to the food in front of them.

After finishing the meal, they decided not to return to their respective racial dwellings, and instead stayed directly in the palace as arranged by Varian.

The plan was to proactively attack the Skeleton King the next morning!

The night passed silently.

The next day, at dawn, the Five Great Saints of the alliance gathered early at the ceremony hall of the palace.

Holy Knight Turayang paced back and forth anxiously in the ceremony hall.

Beside him, Great Mage Kadega glanced at him helplessly, "Turayang, can you sit down properly? Watching you pace around is making me dizzy."

Turayang, with bloodshot eyes, glared at him, clearly not having slept well last night, "Old Ka, that’s a fifty thousand strong undead army, plus a hundred-level super powerful individual!"

"Though Lord Haotian didn’t seem worried yesterday, when the fighting actually starts, who knows what unexpected things might happen?"

"Don’t forget, that so-called Skeleton King has the real demon Ozma hidden behind him!"

"Last time, Lord Haotian took out one of Ozma’s subordinates. This time, Ozma has sent out the Skeleton King."

"I reckon this Skeleton King is not as easy to deal with as we might think!"

"Even if Lord Haotian can help shoulder the majority of the pressure, if the Skeleton King indeed throws everything at us, even with the impressive number of his magical puppets, he can’t possibly stop all fifty thousand undead troops, can he?"

"Our people might suffer considerable losses!"

Varian’s expression was solemn, nodding slightly, "Turayang is right. We’re lucky to have Lord Haotian willing to help us."

"But we can’t place all our hopes on Lord Haotian alone and must prepare for unexpected contingencies ourselves."

He turned to look at the Elf King and the Dwarf King, "Orelia, Kudran, how are your warriors preparing?"

Orelia nodded slightly, her expression serious, "We’re ready and can go into battle at any moment!"

Kudran nodded emphatically, "The Dwarf Race is ready as well."

Varian felt somewhat relieved, nodding slightly, "Good, very good."

Thinking for a moment, he added, "Including the Beastman tribe, all our forces combined total less than thirty thousand."

"The Skeleton King’s undead army far outnumbers us, and if we fight on open ground, it would be highly disadvantageous for us."

"I think we should make our stand at Xiquan Fortress, focusing on defending the city. That would be more advantageous for us."

"If their forces are really too strong, we can abandon Xiquan Fortress and retreat to Storm City."

Kudran was taken aback, "But didn’t Lord Haotian mention yesterday that we should take the initiative to attack?"

Varian chuckled bitterly, "Take the initiative? Do you really think Lord Haotian alone can directly withstand the frontal assault of five hundred thousand troops plus a hundred-level powerhouse?"

"This..." Kudran furrowed his brows immediately.

Varian sighed, "I’ll discuss this with Lord Haotian when he arrives, and request him to help us defend Xiquan Fortress like last time."

"With Lord Haotian’s strange metallic puppets providing cover, even if we have to abandon Xiquan Fortress, we should be able to withdraw safely to Storm City."

Turayang and the others exchanged glances but did not voice further opinions, implicitly agreeing to Varian’s arrangement.

They understood this was indeed a more secure strategy.

But they hadn’t expected that they would wait for another two hours.

It wasn’t until the sun was high when Li Haotian came strolling in, laughing and chatting with Grom.

"Huh? King Varian, you’re up so early."

At this point, Varian’s eyes were filled with veins, and he was speechless.

We’re up early?

Clearly, you two are just so carefree, sleeping so well!

Lord Haotian might be an exception, but Grom, you’ve been chased all the way from your hometown, yet you still manage to sleep soundly?

I’m truly impressed!

If only Varian knew that during his chase by Gordan, Grom could still leisurely enjoy roast suckling pig, he might not react so strongly!

Unaware of what Varian was thinking, Li Haotian yawned and asked, "King Varian, what’s for breakfast?"
