Chapter 1326: Chapter 1297: The Allied Forces’ Plan
The war in the minor world continued, but the strong members of the Allied Forces were very clear in their hearts.
As things stand now, the core of the war is entirely focused on one person.
That person is the Demon King, who is now at the center of a large number of powerful individuals.
At the beginning, some strong individuals were not clear about the Demon King’s strength and attempted to attack, but they received a painful lesson.
It turned out that the Demon King was indeed powerful, beyond what any of them had imagined.
Perhaps if all of them attacked together, they could indeed injure the Demon King, maybe even kill him, but in battle, casualties and sacrifices would be inevitable.
No one wanted to be among those sacrifices, so they came up with a plan.
From a distance, in the incredulous eyes of Li Chen and Ning Wangyang, the leaders and powerful members of the Allied Forces actually sent their troops towards the Demon King.
The power of the Demon King was undeniable. Even if they attacked, the outcome was uncertain, but these powerful individuals sent their subordinates as if to certain death.
If even so many who were at the level of Roar and even Burning Heat were helpless against the Demon King, sending a group of Yellow Rank and Mysterious Grade individuals was nothing less than sending them to their deaths.
“Do you want to deplete my power in this way?” The Demon King clearly saw through the Allied Forces’ intent, and a cold smile appeared on his face.
“Very well, since you like this approach, I’ll indulge you.”
Watching one by one as the fervent soldiers of the Allied Forces charged over, the Demon King raised a wicked smile on his handsome face.
He slightly raised his hands, then gently slapped them towards the ground.
“Boom!!!”
A terrifying black curtain appeared in the sky, and the next moment, it suddenly descended, pressing down on the incoming Allied soldiers under the horrified stares of countless people.
Without even a scream, a group of Allied soldiers disappeared mysteriously like that.
Everyone displayed a shocked expression.
They didn’t know how the Demon King accomplished it, but killing so many people at once certainly scared them.
However, the leaders of the Allied Forces quickly roused them again.
“He has used such an ultimate move just to intimidate us. Such a terrifying attack must consume a lot of his energy, and as long as we unite and strive, we can definitely defeat this demon!”
“Don’t be afraid; true warriors are not afraid. And don’t forget, if we let this demon escape, behind us are our compatriots, our families! Do you want to see them ravaged by this demon?”
“Kill him, defeat the Demon Clan, and the glory of killing the Demon King will belong to you! Don’t you want your name to be eternally remembered within your clan?!”
Under the stimulus from these powerful individuals, the soldiers of the Allied Forces quickly regained some fighting spirit. Many red-eyed individuals charged towards the Demon King once more.
Then… were killed.
Cannon fodder.
In Li Chen’s mind, this word unconsciously emerged.
The deaths of these people were merely to deplete some of the Demon King’s strength, serving as true cannon fodder.
Although these powerful individuals spoke beautifully, both Li Chen and Ning Wangyang knew that with only this amount of cannon fodder, it would scarcely scratch the Demon King’s surface.
When the Demon King had been sufficiently worn down, the final victory would surely still go to them.
“Truly a bunch of hypocrites.” Ning Wangyang frowned again.
“They don’t want to die, so they let others go to their deaths,” Li Chen said calmly. Although his tone was peaceful, his eyes glinted with a cold light.
These so-called leaders and strong members of the Allied Forces truly made him feel disgusted in certain aspects.
In the Allied Forces from the east, some were doing the same thing.
However, what comforted Li Chen was that Patricia did not do such a thing. Instead, she led her people to the side, apparently intending to watch and not letting her people die in vain.
Sulin also did not participate, but stood aside, watching as the powerful encouraged their people and subordinates to their deaths, his face looking a bit unsettled.
In his heart, there was also a struggle.
He knew well that these people would die, possibly in vain, without any significance.
But he understood better that, tactically speaking, the Allied Forces’ strategy was correct. Using overwhelming numbers to deplete the Demon King’s strength, waiting until the Demon King was weakened before they struck together.
Yet, in the depths of his heart, there was an inexplicable feeling that prevented him from doing such things.
So, he also chose to remain silent.
Watching more and more Allied soldiers die at the hands of the Demon King, the expressions on Li Chen and Ning Wangyang’s faces grew increasingly somber.
Among these Allied soldiers were many women and even immature children. But because they had some cultivation, they were enlisted by the Allied Forces.
And now, they were sent to die.
This attack on the Demon Clan was evidently well-prepared by the Allied Forces. Not only did they inform many powerful individuals, but they also consolidated martial artist combat power through the union of various clans.
Suddenly, Li Chen’s gaze shifted to a certain place, his brows slightly furrowing, even his aura strangely fluctuated.
Standing next to Li Chen, Ning Wangyang noticed Li Chen’s movement and couldn’t help but turn his head to look at him.
“Boss, what’s wrong? Do you want us to intervene in this matter?”
“Even if we intervene in this, we probably won’t get much benefit, maybe we’ll even be seen as cowards. Are you sure you want to go?” Li Chen said softly.
“Go! As long as I live, I only seek a clear conscience!” Ning Wangyang said solemnly.
“Well said, to live is to have a clear conscience,” Li Chen nodded, then turned his gaze elsewhere: “However, I think we might have to wait a little before making a move.”
Over there, an unexpected figure for Li Chen appeared.
“I didn’t expect him to really come here too.”
Gazing at that figure, Li Chen’s eyes became profound.
This person, Li Chen would never easily forget. It was he who repeatedly forced him into desperation, even causing him to reluctantly escape back to the minor world ultimately due to this man’s schemes.
He was Li Chen’s previous mortal enemy.
