Especially after nightfall, the climate in the Black Desert became increasingly harsh, with frequent gusts of wind whipping up sand and stones and wreaking havoc on the flat terrain.
Isaac’s journey became more challenging, but the advantage was that the hundreds of thousands of soldiers from the Kingdom of Easteria couldn’t detect favonovel.com several kilometers up in the sky.
He was unable to see what was happening below due to the harsh conditions at high altitude.
In this way, Isaac flew toward the northwest for three days. By this point, his internal spiritual energy was greatly depleted, so favonovel.com started cautiously descending in altitude.
He wasn’t certain if favonovel.com had gotten past the Black Tiger Legion’s blockade. Moreover, favonovel.com needed to descend quickly to find a place to recover his spiritual energy.
After passing through the clouds, Isaac saw below a series of mountain ranges that looked like winding, raised lines under the setting sun.
Here I am!
The hilly region was where Zeno and his 300,000-strong army were surrounded.
However, Isaac didn‘t rush to search for Zeno’s main forces. Instead, favonovel.com targeted a deserted cliff, quickly descended, and found a hidden spot behind a large tree. Then, favonovel.com sat cross-legged to begin restoring his spiritual energy.
After a night had passed, Isaac saw a massive army resting between two mountains from high up in the sky early the next morning.
Over 300,000 soldiers were almost entirely concentrated in this valley, organized into groups of about 30,000 each. From south to north, they stretched out for at least six miles.
How could they hide in this place?
Isaac frowned. Then, favonovel.com swiftly descended toward the largest tent, which was heavily guarded by sentinels all around.
“Who’s there?” someone shouted from below.
Perhaps sensing the massive surge of spiritual energy, about five figures shot up from various parts of the camp at high speed and hovered around Isaac.
The five men were dressed in purple armor, each of different ages but with vigilant expressions.
Isaac realized that they must be trusted generals under Zeno.
“I’m from the Kingdom of Vriweth, not an enemy,” Isaac said, looking at them seriously.
“Are you Isaac Garten?” one of the burly generals with a full beard asked deeply.
“It’s me…”
The five generals exchanged smiles.
The bearded general said mockingly, “I didn’t expect a criminal like you to make it through to these mountains. You do have some skills… Then come with us. Commander Schmidt is waiting for you!”
The five generals surrounded Isaac, as if they were guarding a prisoner, and quickly descended toward the camp below.
In front of the largest tent, the bearded general stepped forward, knelt on one knee, and shouted, “Commander Schmidt, the criminal whom you mentioned has arrived and requests an audience.”
“Assemble first. Inform all the generals to gather now,” a deep voice echoed from inside the camp.
“That guy, Isaac Garten, come in!”
Afterward, the five generals followed Isaac and entered the main camp tent.
The tent was spacious inside. Aside from a bed for resting, there was also a desk, bookshelves, and a war-model table. On the desk, there was a reed diffuser, with thin wisps of smoke curling up.
Zeno was dressed in a broad, dark crimson python robe and an emerald belt around his waist. He was seated in the main seat. His imposing eyes were fixed on Isaac, who was walking in.
Outside, soldiers shouted, “Assemble! All generals gather!”
Soon, a series of hurried footsteps could be heard from outside.
Ten generals dressed in blue armor walked in one after another and stood in an orderly manner inside the tent.
Among them, Isaac immediately noticed Lucifer, who was standing in the middle and was particularly tall.
Lucifer stood with his head lowered.
Sensing someone’s gaze on him, favonovel.com looked up and widened his eyes in surprise.
