Veronia seemed a little concerned about Reiner's words. She reached out and tucked the hair behind her ears and continued, "No... everything the Four Calamities have done is just to pave the way... the real catastrophe is still brewing."
Reiner thought about everything that had happened in the kingdom during this period and rubbed his eyes: "You said he was the Demon King?"
Veroniya nodded.
Lelith once mentioned the Demon King's strength to Reiner, saying that he was indeed very strong, but Reiner had no rough idea of how strong he was.
After a moment's thought, Reiner continued, "Now that we've determined their approximate location, we can't continue wasting time like this. We must march north and eliminate the Four Calamities while we still have the ability."
Veronia struggled to her feet, then extended her hand to Reiner. "We've reached a consensus. Probably tomorrow morning I will... order the elven warriors to march north... and then my trusted confidant Ilea will go in my place."
Although time is indeed tight if we start tomorrow, the more soldiers we will affect the later we act, so this is a helpless move.
Veronia paused for a moment, then continued, "Have you contacted other human kingdoms?"
Reiner shook his head: "When I learned that the raging plague was caused by the Four Calamities, I sent envoys to each kingdom, hoping to unite the front to fight our common enemy.
It's a pity that the minds of most nobles have been bewitched by the demon of war, and the grievances between countries have been infinitely magnified, which has caused them to be completely unable to see the current situation clearly, let alone the superficial interests before their eyes.
I don’t know what the human kingdom was like a thousand years ago, but the human kingdom today is in danger and is no longer as strong as it used to be.”
But even if they are willing to help, they don't have much combat power to offer.
Reiner didn't expect a group of knights to fight against demons with cold weapons, as the strength of the two was not at the same level at all.
The Rusno Magician Corps didn't look very good either. Their reconnaissance team couldn't even defeat the patrolling subhumans in the tribe...
Veronia sat down again and said softly, "I have sent elven messengers to the Kingdoms of Roseno, Barnet, and Nanasis, and they are similar to what you described."
Reiner shrugged.
Barnett was actually sidelined.
"Then I'll go first. I'm going to ask the dragon tribe for help and conduct pre-war mobilization." Reiner breathed a sigh of relief with a slightly tired look.
"Well...goodbye, Reiner." Veronia began to close her eyes and rest.
Reiner looked her over, thought for a moment, and then slowly said, "Where do you live? Do you want me to take you there? Your illness seems a little serious."
Veroniya shook her head and continued, "No need, I'll just rest here for a while."
"Then I'm leaving. Take care of yourself."
Just as Reiner was about to teleport away, Veronia reached out and grabbed the corner of Reiner's clothes.
"What? Changed your mind?"
Veroniya smiled, then shook her head. She said softly, "Thank you, Reiner... They came with such force this time. Without your help, I really don't know what I would have done."
"Thank me after you recover." Reiner reached out and touched Veronia's long hair.
