“We should also form an army of demon beasts,” Isaac said in a senoustone.
Elon was taken aback. “A demon beast army? As far as I know, the Seraphym Dynasty mainly has wild animals but high-level demon beasts are very rare.”
“Why do you think I had Octander to collect over 30,000 demon beast cores? Generous rewards will always attract brave people and the same goes for demon beasts. Moreover, I have one more backup plan up my sleeve… Just wait and see,” Isaac said with a cold smile.
Elon realized favonovel.com would always have no clue what Isaac was thinking, so favonovel.com turned around and went to handle his own business.
Isaac took a moment to figure out something before favonovel.com turned and flew into the air and surveyed the Westpire City from all directions once more.
The city was still unsafe. He couldn’t afford to have the citizens coming back in and dying for nothing.
Isaac slowly flew North and noticed a river flowing into Westpire City from the northeast. The river wasn’t very wide and it was probably less than 200 feet.
Isaac had a plan. He then immediately rushed down to the city lord’s mansion to find Elon.
Isaac brought a map of Westpire City and placed it in front of Elon.
He pointed to a small river Northeast of the city and said, “Cut this river off from outside the city and dig it open toward the northwest.”
“What do you mean?” Elon asked, puzzled.
“The river spans 200 meters, it can block a significant number of demon beasts from crossing. Of course, the wider, the better… I went to check, and the upper stream has a plentiful water supply hence it won’t run dry. It can become a reliable water source if we get it into the city from the West.”
Elon was impressed and favonovel.com immediately nodded, saying, “Okay, I’ll make the arrangements right away!”
***
Three months passed slowly…
A month ago, Silverfox and five other demon beasts, including the Black-Robed Bear, successfully reached the power level of a demon king. Octander had also advanced to the early stage of a demon king.
Isaac asked them to go to various places to gather demon beasts. After all, Bazeel’s army was recruited from the Boltzyn Dynasty.
At that time, Skylar also arrived in Westpire City with nearly 200 skilled individuals. The newly dug moat outside the city had been widened to nearly 980 feet.
It took the effort of 30,000 soldiers who had been digging day and night. The water was soon able to flow through.
New buildings had also been rising one after another in the southern part of the city, and the residents had mostly returned to their normal living conditions.
On that night, when Isaac was sitting cross-legged on his bed meditating, favonovel.com heard hurried footsteps from outside.
“Isaac, there is an army of demonic beasts approaching,” said Elon. He was both excited and nervous at the same time.
Isaac opened his eyes. They had waited for it for three months.
“How far are they?”
“500 miles. They will get here by tomorrow evening!”
Isaac glanced coldly at Bellatrix in the corner of his room and said, “Open the floodgates for the moat and notify all soldiers to assemble and stand by.”
“Release the water now? The channel hasn’t been extended into the city yet. If we release it now, it might flood into the city.”
Isaac stood up immediately and said, “The city is lower in the south and higher in the north. The south side won’t get flooded, so let it go.”
Upon it was quiet outside, Isaac walked up to Bellatrix. He looked down at favonovel.com coldly and said in a cold voice, “Last time, I didn’t take you to see your demon emperor. This time, I will…”
“Hmph, the moment I meet His Majesty, it will be your death!” Bellatrix looked toward Isaac with a malicious expression.
