Chapter 1352: Preparations Before Battle

Upon hearing these words, Li Yue's expression changed drastically in an instant.

For a moment, he propped his chin and began to think seriously.

Clearly, the current situation was far more troublesome than he had imagined.

"What's wrong?" War God Lord William Joles, standing nearby, saw the change in Li Yue's expression and couldn't help but ask with concern.

Upon hearing this, Li Yue gently shook his head.

"Nothing, just thinking about what to do next."

As he spoke, he turned his gaze to the two people beside him.

He spoke seriously to Phoenix Princess Lord Todd Nelson and War God Lord William Joles: "Now, it seems that resurrecting the dead as combat forces is indeed feasible, but corresponding preparations must be made accordingly. Otherwise, if our people get hurt, the consequences will be troublesome."

William Joles asked with great curiosity.

"Since Lord Chenxi has said so, do you have any good ideas to solve this current situation!?"

Li Yue did not respond to his words immediately; instead, he shook his head.

Clearly, he also had no good solution at present.

At this moment, he raised his head and fixed his gaze on the corpses.

After a moment of silence, he slowly began to speak.

"If, after the war ends, these dead people must be uniformly cremated, so I wonder if there is a good place where this can be done?"

Upon hearing Li Yue's proposal, William Joles couldn't help but frown and think for a while.

"I think of a good idea."

At the moment he heard this sentence, Li Yue's curious gaze fell on William Joles.

Even Phoenix Princess Lord Todd Nelson focused his gaze on him at this moment.

The two asked in unison with curiosity: "What idea?"

"Dark City!"

Only the War God Lord was heard silently uttering these three words.

Hearing this, Li Yue and Todd Nelson exchanged a glance, their eyes full of curiosity and confusion; clearly, at this moment, they did not understand what the War God Lord was thinking.

At this time, War God Lord William Joles calmly and slowly began to explain.

"You see, this is a terrain map of our Dark City. Except for the main gate and the rear gate, as long as the two gates are closed tightly, it can become a death trap; basically, it is impossible to escape."

As he spoke, William Joles raised his hand, and a mass of magical elements gathered in his palm.

Immediately, under the power of the magical elements, a small terrain map appeared in the line of sight of Li Yue and Todd Nelson.

William Joles pointed to various places on the map and began to explain his thoughts in detail.

"At that time, once the war ends, we can use the living to lure these dead people into the city; once the two gates are closed, it will be like catching a turtle in a jar, easily done. A single fire will burn everything down, leaving basically nothing behind."

Hearing the other party speak thus, Li Yue nodded gently without the slightest hesitation, yet at the same time, he began to feel somewhat troubled.

"But if we do this, does that mean the entire Dark City is considered scrapped? Then, War God Lord, you...?"

Li Yue did not continue speaking; instead, he stopped abruptly, and his gaze focused on War God Lord William Joles at this moment.

He wanted to see what expression the other party had.

He did not expect that the corners of William Joles' mouth curled into a bitter smile, and he spoke calmly: "If it becomes a dead city, let it become a dead city; it is better than being trampled by the Demon Clan."

Upon hearing this, Li Yue and Phoenix Princess Lord Todd Nelson both fell silent immediately.

For a lord, abandoning the location of his territory is no different than giving his own child to others; the bitterness and sorrow of this are something everyone can understand.

It is visible that the War God Lord has also begun to possess a sense of higher righteousness.

The War God Lord, no longer wishing to continue this topic, immediately said: "Alright, let's not talk about these things now; let's arrange other matters first!"

"First, if a large number of living dead appear all at once, it will likely have a huge impact on the soldiers in the city. After all, one must remember that among these dead soldiers, there are many comrades, friends, relatives, and even lovers... So, to soothe the soldiers' emotions, this matter must be told to them!?"

Regarding this request put forward by the War God Lord, Li Yue and Phoenix Princess Lord had no additional objections.

However, here, Li Yue specifically emphasized one sentence.

"By the way, War God Lord, when telling other soldiers about this matter, remember one thing: you must, must let them know these are dead people, not the comrades they originally knew."

Upon hearing Li Yue say this, War God Lord William Joles nodded heavily, indicating: "Rest assured, I know how to handle this matter."

"Then I'll trouble you."

"Hmm." At this, the War God Lord put forward his second point.

"The second matter concerns the preparation phase. Now, according to my estimation, the Demon Clan may arrive at the city gates within at most one day, so the urgent task is to make good preparations to deal with the coming battle."

Todd Nelson, who rarely spoke on the side, slowly said at this moment: "Leave the corpses to me; I will have people go dig graves. As for mixing the magical potions, leave that to you; is there any problem?"

Li Yue nodded, indicating: "That is no problem at all. However, I don't know how you mix them!?"

The corners of the War God Lord's mouth rose slightly, and he smiled, saying: "It doesn't matter; isn't there still me? Besides, as long as you follow the steps on my scroll one by one, there will be almost no problem."

Hearing this, Li Yue immediately felt relieved.

"Then there is no time to lose; let's start acting now, otherwise, if we run out of time later, it will be disastrous."

"Hmm, no problem."

Thus, the three began to act separately.

The War God Lord gathered personnel and briefly told the relevant matters to others.

Phoenix Princess Lord led people to dig graves.

As for Li Yue, he began to mix the magical potions according to the steps on the scroll.
