Chapter 1477: Lord Chenxi's Concerns
Seeing this scene, everyone present couldn't help but swallow hard.
This poison is truly formidable.
Looking at the poisoned blood in the military doctor's hands, everyone present felt their hearts race; one by one, they dared not move a muscle, fearing they might be caught in the crossfire.
The military doctor stays; the rest of you, withdraw for now.
After a while, watching the military doctor finish changing the poisoned blood, the Demon God looked at him and spoke.
Hearing the Demon God's words, the military doctor bowed respectfully, then led the soldiers out of the camp.
Inside the camp, only the Demon God and the military doctor remained.
"My lord Demon God, is there any order you wish to give?" the military doctor asked respectfully, looking at the Demon God.
Remember, my injury must not be revealed to anyone else; say only that I suffered minor flesh wounds, so as not to affect the soldiers' morale. Furthermore, this matter must remain secret; absolutely no third person may know of it, or do not blame me for killing you. The Demon God looked at the military doctor and warned in a cold voice.
Hearing this, the military doctor's face changed; he immediately bowed and said, "Your subordinate understands and will not leak a single word. I hope my lord Demon God can rest assured."
Very good.
Seeing the military doctor's attitude, the Demon God nodded in satisfaction. Then, looking at the military doctor, he asked, "By the way, regarding this battle, how many troops do we have left!?"
Hearing the Demon God's words, the military doctor fell silent for a moment, then spoke: "My lord Demon God, this time we suffered Devastating losses; no fewer than ten thousand soldiers have died. Ten thousand! So many have died!" "Damn it!" The Demon God clenched his fists and roared lowly.
Seeing the Demon God's appearance, the military doctor hurriedly spoke to comfort him: "My lord Demon God, do not blame yourself too much. This time, our Demon Clan lost so many soldiers mainly because we were careless. If we had acted with caution, this war would not have been lost."
"Yes, this time, I was too careless. However, all of this was caused by my own mistake." Hearing the military doctor's words, the Demon God spoke.
The military doctor heard this and couldn't help but shake his head, yet he said nothing more.
The Demon God remained silent by the side for a long time before finally raising his head and looking at the military doctor, saying, "Issue an order: for these few days, do not launch an attack on Dark City. Everyone, wait for reinforcements to arrive before taking action."
"Yes, my lord Demon God." Hearing the Demon God's words, the military doctor nodded hurriedly.
"Also, dispose of the bodies of the soldiers who died this time." The Demon God continued to speak.
Hearing the Demon God's words, the military doctor hurriedly said, "Yes, I will attend to it immediately."
Watching the military doctor's back, the Demon God sighed deeply, a trace of profound sorrow flickering in his eyes.
Dark City.
At this moment, Li Yue was still lying on the hospital bed. Although the witch had done her utmost to treat him, his Injuries too severe, and it was unknown when he would wake up.
Princess Feifeng, Lord Todd Nelson, sat silently beside him, his gaze fixed on Li Yue.
At this moment, it was unknown what he was pondering.
Just then, a faint sound came from outside the door.
Hearing this sound, Princess Feifeng, Lord Todd Nelson, suddenly sat up from his chair.
"Who is it?"
"It is me."
At this moment, Lord Chenxi, William Jors, slowly pushed the door open and walked in.
Seeing that it was William Jors, Todd Nelson relaxed slightly and said, "Why is it you, Lord Chenxi? What's wrong? Is there something you need?"
"I wish to speak with you." William Jors spoke.
"Speak with me? About what?" Todd Nelson looked at William Jors with a puzzled expression and asked.
William Jors glanced at Princess Feifeng, then addressed Todd Nelson: "Princess Feifeng, now that Lord Chenxi is injured as he is, it will likely be difficult to act in the coming days. In this way, we are left without a leader. Therefore, we must make appropriate preparations!"
Hearing William Jors's words, Todd Nelson fell silent for a moment, then said, "Lord Chenxi, what do you mean?"
"Princess Feifeng, among us now, you possess the greatest strength. Therefore, you should assume command for the coming period. What do you think?" William Jors spoke.
"Lord Chenxi, what are you saying? You want me to assume this command?" Hearing William Jors's words, Todd Nelson was momentarily stunned, then came to his senses and looked at William Jors, saying.
"That is correct. Now, only you can be entrusted with such a heavy responsibility. As for the others, do you think they are capable?"
Hearing William Jors's words, Todd Nelson did not answer but fell into silence...
"Well, Princess Feifeng? Time is of the essence; you must give an answer." Seeing this, William Jors immediately asked.
Hearing William Jors's words, Todd Nelson looked up at William Jors, then asked, "But, if Lord Chenxi wakes up, what then?" "In my opinion, it would be better for Lord Cheng Xi to rest a while. You know he has already done so much for us; even one of his arms is broken. If he continues like this, whether he will survive the next time will become a very serious question."
Hearing William Jors's words, Todd Nelson also understood William Jors's intention. However, thinking of all the things Li Yue had done for them before, if he were to seize his position like this, Princess Feifeng still felt a bit guilty in his heart.
He spoke directly: "How about this? Before Lord Chenxi wakes up, I will take over his position. Once he wakes, he will resume command, but he will not go to the battlefield."
"Will this suffice?"
"This..." Hearing Princess Feifeng's words, William Jors hesitated. He looked at Princess Feifeng, pondered for a moment, then nodded and agreed. "Since you have already spoken thus, let us proceed as you say."
Hearing William Jors's words, Princess Feifeng nodded.
"Regardless, thank you, Lord Chenxi."
Hearing Princess Feifeng's thanks, William Jors waved his hand to indicate it was unnecessary.
"You are welcome. By the way, how is Lord Chenxi's condition?"
Having finished speaking, William Jors looked at Li Yue lying on the bed.
Hearing these words, Princess Feifeng, Lord Todd Nelson, sighed deeply and said, "Still the same as before; it is unknown when he will wake up."
"Sigh!" Hearing Princess Feifeng's words, William Jors sighed again.
He changed the subject and asked, "Princess Feifeng, do not worry too much. Lord Chenxi is a man of good fortune; he will be fine."
