Chapter 1963: The Couple That Has Forgotten Their Kids

When Mag rushed 80 km northeast, he only saw a burning orc settlement. The raging flames had already consumed the entire tribe. There was a whiff of bloody smell in the midst of the thick smoke, making the flames look a little eerie.

His sense for the black fog was limited. If Irina was here, she might be able to see something, but he couldn’t sense any special presence.

antagSystem, where is that thing?” Mag tried to seek help from the system.

“It has already disappeared. The Host is late. We can’t trace it at the moment.” The system sounded in Mag’s mind.

“Useless.” Mag pursed his lips, and watched the burning orc tribe with narrowed eyes. He then suddenly widened his eyes, and lifted his hand at a certain place. The Tian Du sword pushed down a stone wall, and forced its surrounding flames back.

Underneath that stone wall was a male orc’s corpse.

Judging from the wound on his neck, Mag could deduce that he was killed by the Roth Empire’s knight’s standard longsword, but that wasn’t the point of Mag’s focus. Mag’s focus was on his terrible shriveled form.

He seemed to be drained of his blood, and only his dried-up corpse was left.

This wasn’t caused by the fire, because the flames hadn’t reached him yet, and a knight’s sword couldn’t have caused that.

“What’s going on with this?” Mag looked at the corpse and frowned.

“It’s related to the black fog,” the system said. “His target should be these bodies’ blood, life force, and resentment.”

“So, this Great Old One already knew that there would be such a battle in the Twilight Forest, and began to crazily consume all the blood, life force, and resentment after the battle to empower himself?” Mag furrowed his brows more. Suddenly, an idea flashed through his mind, and he surprisingly said, “Or perhaps he has started this war. That was why the northwestern army received the order to massacre the orc tribes. The only person who could have done this was… Josh!”

Irina once said that she had sensed the existence of the black fog from Josh. However, they let the matter go afterwards because they couldn’t find any conclusive evidence.

However, if all this was planned and put into action by Josh, everything could be perfectly explained.

Andre and Sean traveled thousands of kilometers to take part in the peace meeting at the Chaos City, and yet they launched an attack on the orcs and elves at the same time when they could be surrounded. This was a decision that nobody could comprehend.

When the news got to the peace meeting, Mag could obviously see astonishment flash across Andre’s face. Looking back at it now, Andre most probably didn’t know about it, either.

Andre wouldn’t be so stupid as to antagonize the entire Norland Continent. The influence of the Urba Tribe’s incident was so immense that it was unforgettable. However, the Roth Empire’s army had already caused dozens of such tragedies in the Twilight Forest now.

Although Sean had been managing the northwestern allied forces military zone for many years, it was impossible for him to override Andre to mobilize the entire northwestern allied forces to attack the orcs, let alone mobilize the northeastern border troops to attack the elves.

As for how Josh—who didn’t have many connections in the army—mobilized the two main army fronts for an invasion without Andre knowing, it definitely had to do with the Great Old One.

“What does this fellow want to do?” Mag’s expression was cold as he surveyed his surroundings with clenched fists.

The sun began to set gradually in the west. The surroundings were completely silent, and only the sounds of the woods crackling in the fire could be heard every now and then.

“If Josh’s motive was to absorb resentment, the Host should prevent more orcs from dying in order to stop Josh,” the system said.

“I suddenly regret that I only sliced off his ear previously, and not simply cut off his head.” Mag kept the photostone, and leaped onto the griffin’s back. He looked at the corpse that was being slowly consumed by the fire, and gravely said, “Next time, he’ll have no more chances.”

“When can I appear in front of Alex properly, and stomp him into the ground?” In a dark ravine dozens of kilometers away, Josh walked out from the dark with a grimace.

“Soon… you can do that very soon…” The devil’s low murmur sounded next to his ear.

“Big Sister Annie, do you think Father and Mother have forgotten about us? We haven’t eaten lunch, and now we can’t even get in.” Amy sat on the steps of Mamy Restaurant, and propped her chin on her hands as she turned her head sideways to ask Annie. Her chubby face was filled with a hint of melancholy.

Annie shook her head with a smile as she stroked Amy’s head to console her.

“But, I really want to eat roast goose.” Amy looked at Ugly Duckling in her arms and gulped.

Ugly Duckling, who was lying comfortably, suddenly looked at Amy with fear before slowly shifting itself towards Annie and away from Amy.

General Iman looked at the empty castle in front of him, and couldn’t help chuckling. “The elves are really so weak that we cannot even sense that it was once a race that was stronger than the Roth Empire.”

As the chief commander of the force that invaded the Wind Forest and a 10th-tier, he had led 50,000 empire’s knights straight into the core area of the Wind Forest, without encountering any organized resistance at all.

This Roth Empire’s neighbor had displayed a surprisingly low combat force and defensive power.

According to this progress, he could incorporate the entire Wind Forest into the Roth Empire’s territory with just 50,000 knights. He wouldn’t even require any help from the empire.

When he thought of this immense, brilliant achievement in war that was going to carve his name into the empire’s history books, Iman’s fleshy face became even more twisted.

“After going through this castle, we will march towards the Tree of Life. Tonight, we will drink from the Spring of Life and sleep under the Tree of Life with beautiful elves in our arms!” Iman shouted.

These words caused a series of cheers. The knights, who were tired after marching rapidly, were suddenly energized, and they continued marching with Iman.

The City of Life built in the forest could be vaguely seen afar.

That was the symbol of the elves and the last line of defense of the elven race.

Their advancement without meeting any resistance had slowly inflated these knights’ morale. They thought that as long as they reached a place, the latter would become the Roth Empire’s territory. The elves didn’t even have the courage to fight back.

There were no high walls at the City of Life, just a seal barrier.

The nobility in the city were panicking now. Bad news had been spreading back from the front one after another. The Roth Empire’s cavalry was getting closer and closer to the City of Life, but the elves had no way to fight back. It was such a headache..
