The actions of the Soldier Tomb Army were swift as lightning.
As ti passed, the allies on the Fallen Star Sea also noticed the peculiarities of these soldiers.
On Lokeshi's flagship.
General Locke squinted his eyes, turned to his lieutenant, and said: "Having seen the mobility of that team, what are your thoughts?"
The lieutenant replied gravely: "Their ability to coordinate is too strong; it doesn't resemble an army trained through normal ans. If they're our enemy, we would be in despair on the battlefield."
From the communication crystal beside them, Vice Admiral Neo looked troubled and said solemnly:
"No matter how dangerous they are, right now they are our allies, and that makes everything negotiable."
"Neo, don't let anger consu your reason," General Locke sighed. "I know the last incident impacted you greatly, but we need to cautiously assess the effects of the Ense side's growing strength."
General Locke knew that the last ti the 14th Corps squad was attacked by the great sin of envy, Neo lost a subordinate he highly valued, leaving him saddened.
Moreover, while reinforcing the Kulin Sword Saint, they were intercepted by Abyssal Church followers on the way, suffering so casualties, leaving him with pent-up anger, seeking to settle scores with them.
But the surprise attack on the Fallen Star Sea wasn't Neo's turn yet.
"Hold back for now; this isn't the ti for you and to act yet. Let's not forget, our goal isn't to destroy the Abyssal Church."
Neo nodded slightly and said: "There must be sothing behind their summoning of demons on the Fallen Star Sea."
The Fallen Star Sea is vast, but there are few places to land.
Summoning demons would require sacrifices to the Abyss, with human lives being the best offerings.
However, considering the level of demons Neo encountered before, the number of lives required might be in the thousands, and considering the quantity, it's feared that over ten thousand people might have lost their lives.
If it were just fishern and rchants making a living on the sea, the news would have already spread with so many deaths.
So, the high-level participants in this siege were all aware that their target was not the Fallen Star Sea branch of the Abyssal Church, but rather...
The Pirate Islands.
On the Fallen Star Sea, the only group capable of disappearing silently without being noticed, there were only two.
One is the underwater rmaid Empire, but they have already communicated with the rmaid Empire to confirm no signs of large-scale blood sacrifice.
This information is basically credible since, although the rmaids can control a large number of aquatic creatures, they themselves are few in number.
Forget about over ten thousand, even a loss of a thousand lives couldn't be hidden by the rmaid Empress.
With the option of the rmaid Empire ruled out, the remaining option, no matter how unbelievable, could only be acknowledged...
The Pirate Islands, gathering a large number of pirates, very likely have fallen for so reason.
Only the Pirate Islands could explain why the Abyssal Church was able to silently summon followers of the Evil God without others noticing.
...
On the flagship of the Dragon Empire.
The Knight Commander gently stroked the giant dragon beside him and said heavily: "We are about to avenge our ancestors."
The dragon, with bronze scales, exuded authority without anger as it squinted its eyes: "We haven't settled the accounts of the forr patriarch, but now we begin to open the ledger and call nas, which is quite reasonable."
If Louis were here, he would notice the inseparable contract imprint on both the Knight Commander and the dragon, symbolizing the Dragon Knight.
Unlike the false Dragon Knight like Louis, this was a Legendary Dragon Knight considered rare even within the Dragon Empire.
A Legendary Dragon Knight paired with a legendary dragon is far more than a simple sum of one plus one equals two.
It was evident that this was a combat power comparable to a demigod.
...
On the flagship of the Supre Forest Faction.
The head of the Sun Chaser Family, with red eyes, looked at the vice head of the Wind Chaser Family beside him and said:
"If I can't avenge my child today, I won't be at peace, Kade, I need the help of your Hidden Forest."
The main family of the Wind Chasers resided in the Hidden Forest, and their thods were more clandestine and versatile compared to the open and forceful fighting style of the Supre Forest Faction.
Kade, the vice head of the Wind Chaser Family, said: "Have you already confird that the child was killed by soone from the Abyssal Church and not by internal strife within your faction?"
Kade had heard that previously, when the Supre Forest collaborated with the Ense Empire on a waste disposal device, the Supre Forest suffered a significant loss.
The team responsible for negotiations at that ti was led by the Sun Chaser Family.
The head of the family was so furious then that he said, "I wish to have you fools assassinated on your way back."
——Then this team encountered an attack by elves on their way back to the city.
The Sun Chaser child was lost just like that.
Many within the elf community initially thought that the Sun Chaser head would seize this opportunity to demand justice from the Ense Empire.
But this head was sharp enough to sense sothing wrong and delved deeply into investigating the attack incident.
In the end, he pulled out a Jianqi mole who facilitated the attack behind the scenes and executed him.
This matter circulated only among the elven high ranks, with little known by other countries.
Now, suddenly coming to him, it was obvious he had sensed the culprit of his child's death was on the Fallen Star Sea.
But should he really help this guy?
The vice head of the Wind Chaser Family pondered for a mont and then wore a sly smile: "Extra pay."
"Deal!"
...
On the flagship of Furnace Castle.
The second son of the Dwarf King, Muradin Bronzebeard, was hamring away at weapons in the cabin.
A dwarf approached him and said: "The Am Empire's fleet has been attacked, and the opposing force was unexpectedly strong when encountered, we..."
Muradin laughed heartily and said: "Turn the ship around, let's support the Am Empire."
"… Lord Muradin, you really want to support those rchants who only see money?"
