Landing on an island

In the winter of 1902, countries in the Western Continent were ready to send troops.

Chune, Livil, and Sahe concentrated on training knights and wizards, most of whom were veterans with rich combat experience, as well as a group of new and potential combat forces.

After the demon invasion war and Liwei's suppression, the war in the Red Rock countries showed signs of calming down, and the power structure on that land had also changed greatly. The Gray Top countries also invested funds in the military in due course. In addition, with the hidden strongmen in the two places, a group of objectively high-level warriors were formed.

The human coalition army led by the three countries of Chunie, Liweir and Saha gathered on the east coast of Chunie.

If they wanted to land on the Human Slave Island instead of going straight into the Demon Clan's lair, they had to start from the east coast of Quene and cross the Sea of ​​Repetition.

Knights and wizards above level five, plus a small number of low-level knights and ordinary people who were responsible for miscellaneous repairs, cleaning, food and medical care, the necessary weapons, supplies and personnel were loaded on about a dozen warships and docked at the largest seaport in Luoyue City, Xingxing Luoyue Bay.

Inger contacted Florence the night before.

In the past two years, Fei Leng has been in contact with him, and the situation has not changed much. He has been rescuing humans. Because there are too many scattered around, he needs to risk his life to search for them in the East Continent. However, because the people around him are very reliable, he has never been caught.

Although the Demon Mother Tree could sense his presence in its own territory, due to Lexia's ability, it was unable to catch him and the humans who were hiding.

Fei Leng said: "We survive on Human Slave Island by staying in the overseas circle. In order to prevent the remaining land from being polluted, I asked them to retreat instead of fighting. However, land and resources are always limited. The Pure Blood has surrounded this place and we can't get out. If it weren't for Liexia's ability without time limit, we might not have been able to hold on until now."

Inger said: "In a month, Alex will lead troops to rescue."

Fei Leng was silent for a few seconds, "You're not coming?"

Inger: "Yeah. Something happened and I can't go out."

Fei Leng asked: "Then how do I tell you about my story?"

"You and Lexia are on the same side. Don't reveal your identity as the Demon King yet. During this time, try your best to gain Alex's trust."

Fei Leng smiled sarcastically, "Then I have to act in front of him."

"It's not acting," Inger paused, "Alex is too sensitive. You can't act. He will see through it immediately. Apart from your identity as the Demon King, you only need to show your true self. If you want to protect humanity and eradicate the pure-blooded demons, your heart is completely consistent with ours."

"Wow, this really makes me sad. We have been working together for so long, and you are still questioning my sincerity."

There was a hint of sarcasm in his words, but Fei Leng knew that Inger had already trusted him to a large extent, and it was not easy to get someone who was so guarded to let down his guard.

"Since it's all true, you don't have to worry about it. You can trust Alex 100%, and he will believe you too."

"Really? Then why would he lock you up again and again?" Fei Leng's tone dropped in temperature.

"........This is very complicated, and it's not something you need to worry about." Inger remembered something and said, "Filin and Xiuer are both fine. They study and work well, and have good appetites. They often ask me about you."

Fei Leng: “........”

Inger said: "Feileng, when you come back, I will take you to see them, so you must live well, understand?"

Fei Leng laughed softly: "It's rare. I thought you were only gentle to your friends. I'm different from them. I'm a selfish guy who will prioritize my own survival even if I have to use others."

He then added, "I will take care of them for you."

Inger: “Thank you.”

Not long after he finished speaking, Alex came back, dressed in a neat knight's outfit, followed by his friends.

Cheryl rushed over and hugged Inger.

Wu Rui said helplessly: "Cheryl, you are not a child anymore."

Cheryl just held Inger tightly.

Inger patted her shoulder tenderly.

Soon, she raised her face with a radiant look on her face: "We will come back with victory!"

Uri and Bibidai raised their fists and gently placed them on Inger's shoulders.

Inger smiled as he scanned each person, finally landing on Alex.

The brilliance in his eyes would not be dimmed by the darkness in the room. Alex smiled faintly and said, "I'll be back soon."

Inger nodded and watched them go out.

The door is closed.

He stood at the window and watched them walk onto the palace's teleporter one after another.

He thought that after all the twists and turns, he finally achieved his original goal of coming to this world.

Neither he nor his family went to the battlefield. They lived peacefully far away from the battlefield, just waiting for the protagonists to return with victory.

If, in the beginning, he had not become friends with them, or if he had not had a talent for magic, it would have been like this nine years ago.

Alex brought almost all the highest-level elites in the Western Continent, including all the great wizards and paladins.

There is actually not much difference whether there is one more or one less.

Inger trusts his partner who has fought alongside him for many years, but he also has lingering fears and worries.

He would not be so afraid if he walked beside them himself.

At this moment, the door was knocked open and the head maid came in holding the sleeping Ed Yingli.

Inger reached out and laid his hand gently on his little head.

Earlier, when Alex said goodbye to him, the boy was smart enough to realize that he was going to be gone for a long time, and he cried bitterly. When Inger put him to sleep, his face was full of tears.

My eye sockets are still red and swollen.

Of course they couldn't take the child away before they sorted out the problem.

Inger said, "If he wakes up and still cries, bring him to me."

"Yes." The maid's face was full of heartache.

When the head maid went out, Christine came in from the outside with a group of servants following her. The servants were pushing piles of old books and documents.

Christine said, "I got the things."

"Well, let's get started."

"By the way, Chris, have you been recording your dreams lately?"

"Yes, and they are becoming clearer and clearer, but the number has decreased. I don't think anything serious will happen in the next three months."

"Did you know that people can completely forget their dreams?"

"........I remember my precognitive dreams very clearly."

"You might want to try deep hypnosis. It might work well for you. Remember to find a hypnotist you can trust."

"........Well, but what are you looking for?"

"We'll know once we find it... Did any troops make observations and records when they were cleaning up the battlefield during the previous battle against Queen Lucia?"

"have."

"I want that, the more detailed the better."

"......Okay, I'll go get someone to bring it over."

"Here, this is my military seal. This may be a confidential document." Inger took something out of his pocket and handed it to Christine.

"........Oh." Christine looked at him, hesitant to speak.

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing."

One month later.

Fantine, the white deer with a colorful moon pattern on her head, bent her limbs, rested her neck and chin on the deck of the ship, drooped her ears and eyelids, and pursed her lips listlessly.

Cheryl came over, poked his horn and laughed: "Where is your excitement when you got on the boat? I didn't expect deer to get seasick."

"Don't bother me! Be careful or I'll spit out the carrot soup I had for lunch today on you!" Fantine said to her in a depressed tone.

Cheryl walked over to Uri, who was standing next to the railing. "Brother! Can you see it?"

"Well, look, you can see a very small dot. We are almost there." Wu Rui handed her the telescope.

Through the telescope, she used magic to enhance her vision and could see that the tiny shadow of the island turned into a clear and compact model. She could see the circle of walls and the broken gap.

"........Hmm? I heard Alex say there would be a wall, but did that wall......collapse?"

"Let me see it?" Wu Rui confirmed it and frowned, "It's real."

They looked at each other and immediately went to Alex to report the incident.

Alex thought about it and went to find Elena. Elena sent out dragon riders to investigate first, and each dragon rider had an additional wizard for cover.

The dragon rider who was on reconnaissance came back in less than half a day.

"Report! We found many traces of demons on the island, but no traces of humans. The traces of the battle were from a long time ago, and we didn't see many human corpses."

Elena asked, "How do the demons behave?"

"The demons seem to be searching for something, but they are scattered all over the island. There are traces of human habitation on the island, at least two or three countries, but many of their houses have been destroyed. It has been some time, but it cannot be more than a year."

This can indeed be judged from the growth of plants in the ruins of the house.

Alex pondered over the information he received.

Broken city walls, scattered demons, disappeared humans, but the traces of the battle are not new.

Elena said, "Either we arrived too late and all the humans have been captured and used as food, or they have gone into hiding, so the demons are still looking for them."

Tels sighed and said, "We still hope it's the latter."

Alex asked, "How contaminated is the land?"

The dragon rider thought for a moment, "........not much, just a few areas on the outer perimeter were contaminated, but did not extend to the inner circle."

Elena: “That’s strange…”

Alex nodded and said, "In short, the specific situation will be clear after we arrive on the island." He then asked, "How many demons are there?"

"Not much, just tens of thousands." After saying that, the dragon rider laughed, "Sorry."

Elena raised her lips and said, "What is there to be sorry about? A few tens of thousands is really not a lot for people like us."

She added: "It's easier for us without humans here. If we want to protect them and kill the demons at the same time, it will be several times more difficult."

She looked at Alex and said, "Whatever the case may be, let's clean up the mess first before we investigate. What do you think?"

Alex nodded.

They passed on the order: "All troops, prepare to land."
