Just then, a herald hurried over to report. “Commander-in-chief and deputy commanders, two armies have suddenly arrived outside the city. One army is from Crosac, and the other is from Raphael City!”
Crosac!
Raphael City!
It seemed Sean’s leadership of 10,000 united forces to take over Silver City had indeed alarmed Crosac and Raphael City.
Silver City had long been rumored in the City-State Union to have buried hundreds of tons of gold, but no one had ever found Silver City’s secret warehouse.
The three cities, Dorodo, Dorandue, and Bittan deployed their city defense armies to form a united force that quickly conquered Silver City. As long as you were not an idiot or blind, you could tell that Dragon Kingdom had information about Silver City’s secret warehouse, which was why it suddenly attacked Silver City!
Therefore, the two nearest cities-Crosac and Raphael City were here to get a piece of the action!
“How many men are there in Crosac’s army?” Sean asked.
The herald immediately replied, “Commander-in-chief, Crosac’s army has 6,000 men!”
“What about Raphael City?”
The herald then replied, “Raphael City’s army has 3,000 men!”
Crosac was indeed the largest city in the City-State Union. It had twice as many soldiers as Raphael City!
The combined forces of Crosac and Raphael City were not as many as Dorodo, Dorandue, and Bittan’s united forces, but not far less!
With Crosac and Raphael City right by the city, they were hanging by a thread.
“I’ll go check it out…” Sean said and walked toward the city gate.
***
It was getting dark.
In the Crosac army’s commander-in-chief‘s tent, Lisha also in uniform stood before favonovel.com father, Claremento.
“Dad, are we really going to make an enemy of Dorodo?”
Lisha already knew that Sean was the commander-in-chief of the united forces that Dragon Kingdom had deployed suddenly and that favonovel.com was now in Silver City.
Claremento glanced at his daughter and said hopelessly, “Lisha, I know you like Sean, but this concerns Crosac’s interest. I can‘t take sides.”
“I know. Silver City has hundreds of tons of gold, which is of great value. But isn’t Crosac doing just fine without the gold?” Lisha said again.
Claremento shook his head, “I’m not trying to get the gold. Instead, I’m trying to prevent other cities from getting it. Crosac is already the largest city in the City-State Union. Even without Silver City’s gold, Crosac won’t be second to any other city…”
“But the three Dragon Kingdom cities are likely to grow rapidly and become large cities comparable to Crosac if Dorodo, Dorandue, and Bittan get their hands on the gold. Do you think it’s a good thing for Crosac that we’re staying where we are while others are advancing?”
Lisha instantly fell silent at favonovel.com father, Claremento’s words. She understood it, but favonovel.com did not want to become Sean’s enemy and face that man on the battlefield.
Just then, a burst of laughter suddenly came from outside the tent.
“Claremento, your worries are unwarranted!”
Hearing the voice, intense surprise instantly appeared on Lisha’s face.
Claremento’s face darkened instead.
They had recognized it as Sean’s voice!
