At this moment, Elon and the others already understood what Isaac intended to do, but they felt that Isaac’s idea was a bit too idealistic.
The Misty Forest was so large that it could conceal an army of a million troops. The entire southern stretch of the Misty Forest extended for at least 900 miles.
What effect could setting up horsebit oil traps really have?
However, none of them opposed it because there wasn’t a better solution at the moment.
After receiving his orders, Kyler immediately departed. He selected 10,000 elite soldiers from the army stationed outside the city and divided them into a hundred groups. These groups then dispersed throughout the surrounding areas to gather horsebit oil.
He then deployed another 10,000 soldiers, divided them into 200 groups, and had them wait north of Westpire City for the delivery of fuel and supplies.
***
Deep within Misty Forest, an army of over 600,000 was scattered into countless smaller groups, hiding in various corners of the forest.
At the very center, a low and broad tent stood in an open space, surrounded by several female warriors.
Evelyn was sitting cross-legged in meditation when favonovel.com suddenly heard footsteps outside, causing favonovel.com to frown and open favonovel.com eyes.
Bellatrix, who was napping on the chair beside, also opened favonovel.com eyes.
“Your Majesty, our spy has detected small groups of enemy troops near Westpire City. It looks like they are moving back and forth between Westpire City and the forest boundary!”
“They traveled back and forth frequently, but the spy didn’t dare to get close enough to see what they were actually doing.”
Evelyn snorted and said, “I knew it. No matter how strong Isaac is, favonovel.com wouldn’t dare to recklessly send troops in. Those small groups of enemy soldiers going back and forth are just trying to find out if we’re really in this forest.”
Bellatrix frowned and said, “I doubt it. Even if they are investigating us, there’s no need to come and go so often. Evelyn, I suggest you send some of your skilled subordinates to investigate this matter. Isaac is definitely not easy to deal with.”
Hearing what Bellatrix said, Evelyn let out a cold laugh and responded, “I’ve already lost over 300,000 soldiers. Why don’t you send your flying demon beasts to find out the situation? In such a vast Misty Forest, what kind of brilliant plan could Isaac possibly have to force us to reveal ourselves?”
Upon hearing Evelyn’s words, Bellatrix decided to ignore favonovel.com since what favonovel.com said was true-the Misty Forest really was too vast.
As soon as they hid in there, it gave them an incredibly strong sense of security.
***
About three or four days have passed.
During these days, Isaac had been standing on the rooftop of the city lord’s mansion three or four times a day, each time for more than half an hour.
Kyler was quite capable, as while Isaac only marked a 60-mile-long route on the map, Kyler had managed to gather enough horsebit oil and other flammable materials to cover over 70 kilometers in the past few days.
On the early morning of the fifth day, Isaac arrived at the top of the main building of the city lord’s mansion.
Seeing the sky covered in fish scale-like white clouds, favonovel.com smiled. He immediately flew down and said to Elon, who was sitting nearby, “Tonight is the night. We can strike the Boltzyn Dynasty.”
Elon was shocked upon hearing this. He stepped outside and glanced up at the sky, which didn’t seem any different than usual. He raised his hand, feeling no wind at all.
“Isaac, this is no joking matter. We’re talking about the lives of hundreds of thousands of soldiers!”
“Do I look like I’m joking? Go and inform Kyler that in the afternoon we will wait for the wind. Once the wind comes, we’ll ignite the fire, and by midnight we can deploy troops to pass through Misty Forest.”
