Chapter 1454 Set Sail

It takes a genius to remember the address of this website in one second: (Vertex Chinese), the fastest updates! No ads! The detective team immediately brought the news back to Neverwinter City.

"They really came out in full force..." After listening to Lightning's report, Roland let out a sigh of relief. This will undoubtedly be the first head-on collision between the two groups, and it will probably be the last. No matter what the outcome is, it will determine the future fate of humans and devils.

"Can we... win?"

Lightning asked hesitantly. She was dirty all over, the ends of her hair on her forehead were bunched up, and there was a sour smell of sweat when she got close to him. It was obvious that in order to tell him the findings as soon as possible, she must have hardly had much rest these days.

"Of course," Roland pretended to be relaxed and patted the opponent's shoulder, "We not only have to win, but we have to win cleanly."

The devils have an undisputed advantage in numbers, which also shows how much pressure the Tianhai Realm puts on them. It is true that the First Army has a technical advantage, but after all, it cannot kill the enemy without any injuries. Once they enter the four kingdoms, even if they win, it will be a miserable victory.

In the same way, even if the devil can win, he will suffer heavy losses. Therefore, if they were not blocked to the west of the Impasse Mountains, the best result would be that both sides would suffer losses.

Lightning breathed a sigh of relief, and then suddenly felt a little embarrassed and said, "Um, do I smell a little... weird?"

Roland chuckled, "A little bit...but it's the flavor of adventure, so there's nothing wrong with it." He sniffed deliberately, "Honestly, I think it's pretty good."

The other party's face suddenly turned red. She grabbed Maisie who was sniffing her collar vigorously, lowered her head and walked out of the office, "I, I'm going to the bathroom to take a bath!"

"Gu?" Maisie still looked confused.

"Lightning, Maisie." When the two were about to leave, Roland stopped them and said slowly, "Thank you for your hard work. Now take a good rest."

"Um……"

After the door closed, he immediately picked up the phone number of the director of the administrative department and said, "Inform all ministers to hold a meeting and the time has come to set off."

…

In the conference hall, the senior officials of Neverwinter City sat in a circle.

Roland pasted Lightning's hand-drawn drawing on the map behind him, and then recounted all the expedition's findings.

"There are two points of information that can be confirmed now. One is that the new God of Divine Creation does exist. It is less than three hundred kilometers away from the spine of the continent and is constantly moving eastward. The second is that it carries a large number of devils, even so many that it floats Empty land cannot accommodate it, so this inefficient method is used to transfer it.”

"I think the former is not difficult to understand. In order to invade Eternal Winter and Wolf Heart, the Devil's Western Front Army not only built obelisks in the Spine Mountains, but also opened up a supply line running through the Dawn Realm. Flying along the mountains, not only It can prevent deviation from the course, and also allows the supply line to share the pressure of the red fog, which is considered a relatively safe route."

"The exact number of the latter is unknown, but since they are coming out in full force, it is not an exaggeration to estimate that there are tens of millions of devils capable of fighting. At the current pace, they can reach the borders of the four kingdoms in at most one and a half months."

When talking about the number of enemies, Roland noticed a little fear on many people's faces. But this can't be blamed on them. After two battles of Divine Will, humanity's vitality was severely damaged, and it was hard to say whether there would be tens of millions of survivors, let alone soldiers who could be used in combat. For Barov and others, there is no difference between a scale of tens of millions and an astronomical figure.

"This is a decisive blow for the enemy, and it is also a battle that determines the fate of mankind. The Eleanor Floating Island must set off immediately to stop the enemy from advancing eastward before they approach the desperate mountains."

"But... Your Majesty," Barov said in embarrassment, "the number of enemies is staggering, and the number of troops that the floating island can carry is extremely limited. Is it too risky to proactively attack them?"

"Securing Gray Castle is the riskiest plan!" Edith stood up and glanced at the old manager, "You don't have to be frightened by the tens of millions of crazy demons. If they can't reach Gray Castle, it's meaningless no matter how many there are. . If you think about it carefully, you can understand that there are so many devils in the Blackstone Territory not only since the third war of divine will. The reason why they can't get through is because the red mist supply can't keep up, so our real goal There is only one, and that is the enemy’s floating city.”

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the venue changed subtly. After all, no one wanted to admit that they were afraid of the enemy.

"That's right," Roland suppressed his smile and nodded slightly. "Without the red mist provided by the moving obelisk, the devil will be unable to move on the fertile plain. Besides, just because we set off now does not mean that we will fight immediately. A little time should be enough for the army to be ready."

There was one more thing he hadn't said.

That was the Lord of the Sky and the Silent Disaster who returned to Sky City to consolidate the troops.

Since the devil's transfer took advantage of the Western Front Army's red supply line, it is impossible for Hykezord not to know the location of the new royal city. For the king of the devil clan, he is already a complete betrayer, so gaining more power is the best way to protect himself. The fall of the royal city is undoubtedly its best opportunity. When that moment comes, Hykezord will not remain indifferent.

Roland thought of this and looked at Tilly, "By the way, how is the take-off and landing training of the Sky Knight going?"

"It's easier than I thought." Tilly replied calmly, "There is not much difference between taking off and landing from a floating island and taking off and landing on the ground. As long as the weather permits, students can easily complete it. The only trouble is that in the past, only using Seeing the desperate mountains or coastline, the driver can roughly judge his position and find the land airport. However, in the future, both the enemy and ourselves will continue to move, and the fertile plains lack landmark guidance, so there may be some problems in positioning during the return flight. Difficulty. Of course, it’s not an unsolvable problem, you just need to provide enough fuel.”

This is also a major problem in aircraft carrier operations. On a battlefield with a range of hundreds of kilometers, a small amount of yaw will accumulate into a huge error in the end. Fortunately, compared to the unchanging sea, no matter how remote the land is, you can always find a few "coordinate points" for positioning, such as woods, rivers, mountain peaks, etc. Roland can roughly guess the opponent's plan. If he is not familiar with it, practice more. If he flies more, he will naturally know where he is.

"Don't worry, they can fly as long as you want." He agreed.

In this decisive battle, the Aerial Knights will be the undisputed main force. It is precisely because of an air force that humans have the opportunity to block the Devil's King's City thousands of miles away.

Seeing that no one else spoke, Roland looked around the hall and ordered in a deep voice, "Then, I announce that the Sky Plan has entered the third phase, and the floating island has set sail, targeting the fertile northern region!"
