Chapter 623: The Convergence of the Sky Veil of Death

After spending more than two days, Kant led all the soldiers to Drondheim.

Drondheim was already a large city. It was designed to accommodate tens of thousands of civilians and also accommodate 210,000 troops if they had to squeeze and that would be quite crowded.

In the Council Hall of Drondheim, a high-level meeting was being held.

Kant sat on the main seat. The five generals were divided into left and right. Bunduk was the first to sit on Kant’s right. This was Drondheim, and Bunduk was the person-in-charge of Drondheim appointed by Kant.

“Bunduk, have all the civilians of Drondheim been evacuated?” This was Kant’s first question. Every civilian was a reserve troop class with unlimited potential that Kant cherished.

Bunduk replied, “Lord, according to your instructions, all of them have been evacuated. I arranged for them to go to Aaron. Thirty thousand civilians were not a heavy burden for Aaron. Moreover, I have already settled this matter with James and he has also sent his adjutant to receive them.”

Kant nodded slightly. The path from the Stone Pass to Drondheim and the path from Drondheim to Aaron were both in the Nahrin Desert, but they were two different paths. It was not surprising that Kant did not meet any civilians of Drondheim who might have set off early.

As the saying goes, before the army moves, the provisions go first.

This time, to support Drondheim, Kant gave the most urgent military order. The army only brought dry rations for the road, and they did not bring more with them.

As for rations, they were the lifeline of the army. Without sufficient rations, it was impossible to fight a long battle. This time, the enemy had a huge number, and it was very likely that they would need to fight a long battle.

“Bunduk, how long can Drondheim’s grain supply the 210,000 troops for?” Kant’s expression was very serious.

“Lord, the grain reserves in Drondheim are based on the two-year rations for 100,000 people, so it can supply the 210,000 troops for almost a year.” Drondheim was a city, and the grain reserves were the most important, Bunduk was obviously very familiar with this. As soon as Kant asked, he answered without thinking.

“Great!” Kant was pleasantly surprised. Ever since the territory had been greatly expanded, Kant only cared about controlling the general direction. He no longer had to worry about his own territory, so he didn’t know how much grain Drondheim had in reserve, before asking, Kant had even given the order to gather grain if there was too little. Drondheim had only garrisoned 5,000 soldiers before.

The army was sufficient, and the grain reserves were also sufficient. With the elite level of the system soldiers, it was not an exaggeration for Kant to say that Drondheim was as strong as a rock. So what if there were a million enemy soldiers? Facing Drondheim, who was high in the city and had sufficient troops to defend, what did they have to fear?

“It’s just a pity that there are towns and fields outside of the city!” Kant thought regretfully.

In the past year, Drondheim could not help but be promoted to a large city. Outside of Drondheim, there were still many towns. After several topographic changes, the oasis lookout had been expanded many times by Kant, there were many fertile fields outside the city. These fields were planted with wheat, achnatherum, date palm tree, and other crops, as well as many breeding farms.

When the siege war was about to happen, Kant would definitely want to clear the wilderness. He would rather destroy these things than let them benefit the enemy. However, the Jackalans and Lizardmen armies seemed to have become desert miners as they had been digging in the desert. The spies belonging to Kant’s forces had already discovered that they had dug out an ancient city.

This made Kant somewhat surprised. He even thought that the target of the Jackalans and Lizardmen armies was not his Drondheim, but the ancient city buried under the Nahrin Desert.

However, whether it was his Drondheim, the target of the Jackalans and Lizardmen armies, or the ancient city that they had dug out, the number of Jackalans and Lizardmen armies appeared at Kant’s door, he could only send an army that was sufficient to defend against the enemy’s attack to defend Drondheim.

After Kant asked Bunduk a few key questions, the high-level meeting was considered over.

Then, Kant gave the order to disband the meeting. “Alright, this meeting is over. Bunduk, continue to monitor the movements of the Jackalans and the Lizardmen. The rest of you, go and rest well!”

Rolf, Firentis, Baheshtur, and James all mobilized and led their troops to the Stone Pass as soon as they received their orders. Then, they set off from the Stone Pass without stopping and arrived at Drondheim, during this period, they did not have a good rest at all.

However, Kant was the most tired one.

After a series of battles, he did not have a moment to rest. He ran through the night and set off from the Lion Fort at night. He arrived at the Stone Pass before sunrise at ten in the morning. After that, the other soldiers all went to rest, but Kant did not rest at all. Drondheim’s situation at that time was extremely dangerous that he could not even sleep.

At this time, he had been traveling in the desert for two days and one night. Kant was no longer a noble of the world, so his body was no longer able to ignore fatigue like a world noble.

On the Mannheim Coast, there were a total of three kingdoms. The Kingdom of Grey Mane, the Kingdom of Lizardmen, and the Elf Republic.

The three kingdoms were adjacent to the Nahrin Desert in the south, and the stormy sea of Mannheim in the north. They were lined up on the belt of land. From the west to the east, there were the Kingdom of Lizardmen, the Kingdom of Grey Mane, and the Elf Republic. At this moment, the Kingdom of Lizardmen and the Kingdom of Grey Mane were already enveloped by the Sky Veil of Death. There was not a single living person in the entire kingdom.

The Sky Veil of Death was created by the undead that was the descendants of the Sun God. It had extremely strong infectivity. Compared to the Sky Veil of Death that Kant had dealt with previously, this Sky Veil of Death was not only much bigger, but the death energy was also much denser, the infectivity was even stronger. The Jackalans and Lizardmen who were digging the sand in the Nahrin Desert saw that the situation was not right and surrendered to the undead before the Sky Veil of Death enveloped them. They became their slaves and survived. The rest of the population of the two countries had all turned into tall skeleton soldiers.

At this moment, the Sky Veil of Death that enveloped the Kingdom of Grey Mane and the Kingdom of Lizardmen had almost all gathered in the Kingdom of Grey Mane. At the same time, it was making an all-out invasion to the east.

In the far east was the Elf Republic. The Elf Republic had already lost a small part of its territory. The Sky Veil of Death had invaded the depths of the kingdom, turning thousands of elves into slender skeleton soldiers, that had become accomplices to the invasion of their former home.

However, the trend of the Sky Veil of Death extending into the depths of the Elf Republic had been suppressed by the Elf Republic.
