Invincible Divine Destiny Selection System

Chapter 87: Chapter 87: Troops Approaching the Imperial City_1

"What does Marquis Zhongyong think we should do?" Chu Yuan asked.

"The strong from the four nations gather, appearing to be well-equipped and formidable. However, if we can swiftly annihilate them and sweep the four nations in one move, our Great Dawu's renown will spread far and wide. Among the four nations, the strongest one is Daqian. The combined strength of the remaining three doesn't even equal that of Daqian.

Of course, doing this carries some risk, but the benefits and rewards are also significant."

Having been by Chu Yuan's side for a long time, Lu Qianfu's appetite and ambition had grown more and more.

"It's not surprising that the four nations gather in one place. Your words truly reflect my thoughts; it's also what I intend to do. Only by overcoming the four nations at once can I establish my dominance and spread my authority far and wide. I have allowed them to gather so that this time I can sweep them all away in one clean stroke."

Chu Yuan made his decision and issued an order: "Give the command, the grand army will set out at noon. We don't need to rush, I will give them time to gather."

"The host made choice two, gaining a hundred Destiny Points, plus one Military Supplies Warehouse."

Military Supplies Warehouse: A huge storage space created by a Divine Realm expert slicing through the void, with no other abilities other than storage.

Chu Yuan instantly saw a small warehouse-like structure within the System Space. It looked like a miniaturized house.

However, when his divine sense probed inside, he found that it was a large vacuum environment, easily hundreds of miles in size.

Brandished in a vacuum devoid of air, and thus unable to store live things, but capable of preserving war supplies without degradation over long periods.

For example, grains, divine cannon, and the likes.

This just suited Chu Yuan's needs.

Although he has the System Space that can be used indefinitely for storage.

But after all, the System Space is his alone, he can't be always with the grand army, and the divine cannon can't always sit beside him too.

Now it's perfect, he has the Military Supplies Warehouse, and can put all the divine cannons and the God Destroyer Crossbows inside.

"Marquis Zhongyong, this is the Military Supplies Warehouse. The supplies needed by the Divine Warriors Legion and the entire army are stored here."

Lu Qianfu was undoubtedly the one Chu Yuan trusted the most, so he gave the Military Supplies Warehouse to Lu Qianfu.

"Military Supplies Warehouse?"

Lu Qianfu slightly puzzled as he accepted it.

But when he sensed the vast space inside, he was instantly startled. Such a large storage space was unheard of. He knew that ordinary storage rings only held a few cubic meters and couldn't hold much.

He knew that this was Chu Yuan's trust in him.

After handing over the Military Supplies Warehouse, Lu Qianfu set off to prepare for the grand army's departure.

At noon, the grand army set off promptly. The morale of the millions of soldiers was even higher than before, and each one of them wished they had more feet to dash to Daqian Royal City quickly.

The actual distance from Nan County border to Daqian Royal City wasn't far, it roughly took about five days of normal marching.

But Chu Yuan issued a command to slow down the marching speed. He was lining up the marching speed based on the support speed of the other three countries for Daqian.

"Do not harass the civilians along the way. Those who do will be beheaded!"

On the march, Chu Yuan also issued an iron decree. The civilians of the cities and towns along the way should not be disturbed. In his eyes, these people would be his citizens of Great Dawu in the future.

Nobody dared to disobey Chu Yuan's command, they all knew that once they stormed Daqian Royal City, they would enjoy endless wealth.

So, although the march of millions of Chu Yuan's army was imposing, each household in the cities along the path remained closed. They were not disturbed but merely passed through the cities. Even when they camped, they did so outside of the cities in open areas.

The capital of Daqian, Dragon City.

From a distance, the city looked like a mighty dragon lying on the ground, prepared to leap into the sky at any moment.

Being established for five hundred years, Dragon City's grandeur even surpassed that of Great Dawu. Countless discernible and hidden defenses were stationed there, so tightly guarded that not even a genuine divine realm expert could penetrate it.

However, the atmosphere within Dragon City was incredibly tense.

The news of the Crown Prince's death in battle and the destruction of the multi-million grand army at the border couldn't be concealed. Like a violent storm, it swept through the entire Daqian, and the news of the millions of Great Dawu's army marching even added more chaos.

In the past half a month, the elites and strong men from the three nations had continuously entered Dragon City.

In the study of Daqian's Royal Palace.

At this moment, four figures, their might shaking the heavens, sat down, their expressions steely and cold.

Based on their attire, they were apparently the kings of four countries, gathered in the Imperial City, an event that has not occurred in hundreds of years.

"Gentlemen, I did not invite you here to watch you remain silent."

Seated at the head of the table, a man dressed in a dark gold royal robe slowly began to speak. He was Lin Qian, the current king of Dazhan.

"We all understand the truth that when the nest is upside down, there can be no intact eggs, or the mutual dependence of lips and teeth. Otherwise, we wouldn't be here in Dazhan. Emperor Dawu is much too ambitious. His aim is to annihilate our four countries. Should Dazhan fall, what hope is there for our survival?"

The one who just spoke was the king of Great Sheng.

They too were helpless. Chu Yuan's war declaration was too arrogant and domineering. One country attempting to annihilate four was a situation that, had it been proposed in the past, would have been met with derision. However, having experienced the battle at the border, they had come to appreciate the power of Dawu.

"Indeed," said the King of Dalu." Despite initially watching this show from the sidelines, we realized it was never an option. The wisest course of action now would be to rally all elites from the four countries and coalesce at the strongest, Dazhan's Imperial City, to deliver a crushing defeat."

"We have pushed all our resources into this war, the four nations united. Just our elites can sum up to a million. Even if his divine army is formidable, they are only a hundred thousand strong. Surely they cannot resist a million elites. Moreover, we outnumber them significantly in terms of overall army size."

The King of Dazhi also wore a grim expression, for the pressure from Dawu had forced them into unity.

It would be certain doom for any single nation to face this alone.

There was no choice left. After the battle at the border, with all the semi-divine warriors killed, they could no longer ignore their fear.

"In terms of military strength, we far surpass Dawu. But what concerns me is the strength of Emperor Dawu." The King of Dazhan spoke: "My crown prince was slain by him. I suspect that even though his realm is still Divine Abilities, his combat power is probably on par with the semi-divine."

"Semi-divine."

The three kings fell silent and then shouted simultaneously: "What secrets does Dawu hold? Chu Yuan has only been enthroned for a few months, and yet he possesses power on par with the semi-divine. This is not something that the late emperor of Dawu could have given him. If he had such abilities, a war for country annihilation would have occurred long before now!"

"So, I know that you three countries still have reserves, and not all forces have been dispatched here. But this battle holds extraordinary significance. If Dawu falls, we four countries all stand a chance to split his powerful secret between us. I suggest you abandon the idea of gaining an advantage from others."

The Emperor of Dazhan said slowly.

"We understand."

They indeed intended to hold back their forces, allowing Dazhan to shoulder the main defense.

But hearing what the Emperor of Dazhan said, they had no choice but to send their full strength and fight a battle of life and death with Dawu.

"We will summon our forces now."

The three kings had no choice but to nod in agreement.

Watching the three kings leave the study room, a eunuch approached and said,"Your Majesty, just now the queen mother started making a fuss again. She wants to avenge the crown prince. It took great effort to calm her down. You better go see her soon."

"Women's kindness, what do they know, what does the death of a crown prince matter." The Emperor of Dazhan said unhappily: "The most important thing now is to prepare for the battle against Dawu. As long as we crush Dawu and obtain their secret, I might be able to break through the semi-divine."

"But I can't let her continue this fuss."

The Emperor of Dazhan continued: "A war of national annihilation, I want to see who will annihilate whom!"

This time it is both a crisis and an opportunity.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, he has essentially become the alliance leader of the four countries, gathering the elite forces of the four countries under his control.

Otherwise, without Dawu's imposing threat of country annihilation, how could the other three countries come to Dazhan's aid?

The kings of the three countries are not fools; they know that once Dazhan is annihilated, they will be next.

....

Finally, after more than half a month.

In the plains outside Dragon City, a towering dark cloud spread as far as the eye could see.

Dawu's army of tens of millions had finally arrived at the city gates, beginning the siege of Dragon City.

The war of national annihilation is about to begin!
