Chapter 1439: Targeting Li Yue
In the Demon Race military camp, at this moment, with the help of several Demon Race shamans, the Demon God's injuries began to heal; he no longer looked as if he were on the verge of death as he had yesterday.
After some treatment, the Demon God slowly opened his eyes and looked around.
At this time, aside from a few shamans, there was no one else beside him.
The Demon God raised his hand and touched the hideous scar on his chest, then a chill appeared in his eyes.
"Li Yue, I will definitely make you pay the price."
As he spoke, his gaze turned to the shaman beside him, and he asked, "What is the current situation in Dark City?"
Hearing this, the shaman nearby immediately replied respectfully, "Reporting to Your Majesty the Demon God, we just received news that the situation in Dark City has now stabilized, and the Lord Alliance has not made any moves for the time being."
Additionally, although we currently control the Chengdecheng Sect gates of Dark City, those fellows of the Lord Alliance have begun establishing a defense system within the city again; their defenses are extremely strong, and we cannot attack inside for now. Furthermore, those soldiers dare not advance rashly, so both sides are currently at a stalemate.
Hearing this, the Demon God nodded slightly.
Although he had long anticipated this, after hearing the shaman's response, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly in a smile.
"This is normal; after all, they are also severely damaged. So, how are our soldiers?"
"Reporting to Your Majesty the Demon God, our overall strength has now dropped by about half," the shaman continued, "and among them, many soldiers are injured."
Hearing these words, the Demon God's eyebrows furrowed slightly.
He then continued to ask, "With our current troop strength, can we completely take Dark City!?"
"This..."
Hearing this, the shaman was immediately speechless, not knowing what to say.
After all, the strength of Dark City truly cannot be underestimated.
Relying solely on their current forces, it would be difficult to achieve victory.
"What's wrong?" The Demon God stared at the shaman and asked.
Hearing this, the shaman lowered his head, hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to speak the truth.
"Your Majesty the Demon God, to be honest, although we have now gained the advantage, to defeat Dark City, we will still need to expend considerable effort; at the very least, we will need to sacrifice more soldiers, but even so, the odds are not very high."
"If you wish to directly conquer Dark City, I am afraid it will still consume quite a bit of energy."
Hearing these words, the Demon God's eyebrows knitted tightly, and he fell into deep thought.
Seeing the Demon God lost in thought, the shaman did not dare to speak and disturb him. "Do we have any reinforcements coming to support us now!?" The Demon God suddenly raised his head, looked at the shaman, and asked.
After hearing this, the shaman thought for a moment with a thoughtful expression. He then spoke, "On our side, there is indeed another reinforcement force, but this reinforcement is far too far from here; it will probably take two or three days to arrive here."
Hearing this, the Demon God nodded.
"In that case, let us wait two or three days for those reinforcements to arrive, and then take action."
Hearing this, the shaman nodded, then turned and left.
The Demon God continued to sit in place, lost in thought.
Now, Li Yue is no longer the Li Yue of the past; the current Li Yue possesses the strength to contend with him, which made the Demon God's heart extremely anxious and uneasy.
If he does not devise a plan targeting him, the next battle might prove dangerous for himself.
Thinking of this, the Demon God's expression became even more grim.
He quickly pondered countermeasures in his mind, hoping to find a way to target Li Yue.
But no matter how he thought, he could not come up with anything.
Just then, the Demon God seemed to think of a certain method. Afterwards, he stood up and walked outside the tent.
Outside, several Demon Race soldiers were standing.
"Come here."
Hearing the Demon God's command, those few Demon Race soldiers hurriedly walked quickly toward the Demon God.
"My lord Demon God, what are your orders?"
Seeing the few people before him, the Demon God said, "I remember we have special combat beasts, right?"
Hearing this, those few Demon Race soldiers exchanged glances, then one soldier spoke, "But, my lord Demon God, that beast has not been fully tamed; right now, it is in a state where it bites anyone it sees, which is very dangerous."
"Not being fully tamed is best."
Hearing the Demon God's words, those few Demon Race soldiers were all somewhat shocked, their mouths wide open, not knowing what trick the Demon God was up to.
"Alright, hurry up, bring those beasts up so I can see them," the Demon God said.
Hearing these words, those soldiers did not dare to waste time and immediately turned to run out of the tent.
After they left the tent, the Demon God sat in a chair and closed his eyes to rest.
