Chapter 1574: Next Plans
The soldier who had been called out hurriedly nodded and said, "Yes, I understand. I will return immediately."
The demon officer nodded, waved his hand, and signaled the other to leave.
Seeing the other leave, he turned his head to look at the corpse on the ground, a trace of complexity in his eyes, and couldn't help but sigh.
"Sigh, truly a bitter fate. Just became a new recruit and ran into something like this."
The demon officer murmured a few words, then walked over to the side of that demon soldier, extended his right hand, touched the other's forehead, and gently closed the other's unyielding eyes before withdrawing his hand.
After finishing all this, a look of regret appeared on the demon officer's face; he looked at his own hands and sighed lightly.
On this side, the demon soldier who had returned to report news hurriedly arrived outside the military tent where the Demon God was stationed, knelt on the ground, and shouted to the person inside, "Reporting to the Demon God, your subordinate has news to inform the Demon God, my lord!"
"Oh?"
Hearing these words, the Demon God inside also stood up, walked out of the military tent, glanced at that soldier, and asked, "What exactly happened to make you come over in such a panic?"
That demon soldier looked at the Demon God, then lowered his head and said, "Just now, a human suddenly broke into the area where we were patrolling and killed everyone in a patrol unit."
"Just this trivial matter, was it necessary for you to notify me?"
Hearing these words, the Demon God's face immediately became very ugly.
Upon hearing this, that demon soldier trembled all over in fright and hurriedly explained, "No, no, no, Demon God, my lord, please calm your anger. It is like this: the one who came to attack was no one else but that damned Lord Chenxi, Li Yue. Because the other's behavior was bizarre, we simply did not know why he did such a thing, so we had to send someone to notify you, Demon God, my lord."
"What did you say? It is that brat Li Yue? How could he come and do such a thing as ambushing a patrol unit?"
Hearing this news, the Demon God immediately cried out in shock, his face becoming extremely ugly, a trace of Solemnity in his eyes as he looked at that demon soldier.
The Demon God continued to ask, "Besides this matter, did anything else happen!?"
Hearing the Demon God's words, the demon soldier shook his head and said, "No, besides this, nothing else happened to us."
Upon hearing this, the demon officer's face became even more Solemn, and he said, "This is strange. What exactly is Li Yue planning?"
As the Demon God thought and thought, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, a cunning smile flashing across his face; he seemed to have thought of something, his mood became very good, and he said, "Alright, I know about this matter. You may leave first. If there is any news from the City of Dark Shadows, notify me immediately!"
Upon hearing this, the demon soldier secretly rejoiced in his heart; he nodded and replied, "Yes, your subordinate will withdraw now!"
Having finished speaking, this demon soldier turned and left.
"Hehehe, truly unexpected. This Li Yue is too cautious! He actually thought I made some unusual move and came personally to investigate. It seems I still cannot underestimate him!"
Speaking the last words, a cunning smile flickered on the Demon God's face, and a glint of cold light appeared in his eyes.
At this moment, on the other side.
Li Yue returned from the place where the demons were patrolling.
As soon as he returned, Princess Feifeng and Lord Kill God were already rushing forward to meet him; they both looked at Li Yue with worry and asked, "How is it? Is there any news!?"
Seeing Princess Feifeng and Lord Kill God, Li Yue was slightly stunned, then nodded and said, "There really is a little something."
"What is it? Speak quickly!" Princess Feifeng, Todd Nelson, and Lord Kill God, William Jors, both became excited.
Li Yue looked at the two and said, "According to the situation I forced out of them, the other side really does not seem to intend to continue fighting."
Upon hearing this, Princess Feifeng and Lord Kill God's eyes immediately widened; their faces became somewhat strange, they exchanged glances, and both saw a trace of surprise in each other's eyes. They did not expect the result to be like this; it was hard to believe the other side had no intention of continuing the fight.
"In that case, what should we do next?" Lord Kill God, William Jors, looked at Li Yue and asked.
Princess Feifeng, Todd Nelson, also asked at this moment, "Yes, although the demons not attacking is a good thing for us, I always feel the matter is not as simple as we imagine."
Hearing the words of the two, Li Yue dared not be negligent and hurriedly said, "Correct, I think the same as you. It seems the other side probably has other intentions; I think this possibility should be very high."
"Therefore, I suggest we strictly defend the territory we occupy and order the soldiers to remain vigilant about the surroundings, not relaxing even a fraction. Especially that Demon God; once the other launches another sneak attack, we absolutely cannot let our guard down."
"Good!"
The two both nodded in agreement, consenting to Li Yue's proposal.
"By the way, to be safe, I have another proposal here." Li Yue's voice suddenly rang out.
"Oh? What proposal?" Lord Kill God, William Jors, couldn't help but ask after hearing Li Yue's proposal.
"The three of us should also take turns on watch. You know, ordinary soldiers, if a sudden situation occurs, are simply powerless to solve it. If one of us is present, the others can react quickly, so that those enemies cannot take advantage of the situation," Li Yue said.
"This idea is good." Princess Feifeng, Todd Nelson, and Lord Kill God both heard these words and nodded in agreement with Li Yue's proposal.
As Li Yue's words fell, Princess Feifeng, Todd Nelson, immediately said, "Just as you, my lord Li Yue, said; let us arrange it now."
Following his orders, Princess Feifeng immediately went to arrange personnel for rotating shifts.
The time that followed was the most difficult moment for Li Yue and the others, because every moment they had to guard against the demons' sneak attacks.
However, what made them feel regretful was that even though they made full preparations, the other side did nothing at all.
It was like a person clenching a fist, throwing a punch, only to hit cotton in the end; it made one extremely depressed, and the mood became very gloomy, very terrible.
Sometimes, Li Yue even hoped the other side would do something, if only a little.
