Chapter 1541: Chapter 780: Acting Lord of Battle Valley_2
The Dragon Sorcery Wraith is ineffective against the Shadow Legion, also undead, but against those clustered ordinary residents, even well-trained troops, it is a terrifying weapon of slaughter that can create hundreds or even thousands of corpses in minutes.
Moreover, battles are not static. Who knows if the next encounter will be with a lonely figure or with a group of servants guarding? Or perhaps it appears as a unit on the battlefield.
A slight mishap, and it’s not them surrounding the opponent, but the other way around.
“Three hundred years ago, we already suffered a loss on this matter. We can’t stumble on it again,” Regina said confidently. “I can’t guarantee the other two grassroots organizations of the Dragon Cult, but as for the Dragon Sorcery Wraith of the Sambia grassroots organization, as soon as they’re mobilized, we will receive the news immediately.”
The implication was clear — they had infiltrated this cult.
Three hundred years and more allows one to accomplish many things.
“That’s good. If there are no other plans, let’s go join the main army. We have a lot of work to do next,” Gaven didn’t ask further because soon, the things Regina held would turn into pieces on his chessboard.

“The lady remains understanding as ever, exactly what we need.”
“Don’t be grateful too early; this is what we wanted to do but couldn’t.”
When Gaven rejoined the Conqueror Army, they had entered Esebra, the capital of Battle Valley.
This is not even considered a small city; at most, it’s a somewhat larger town, with a population of barely five thousand.
As the Conqueror Army, along with people and livestock numbering over a hundred thousand, marched into this place, the commotion they caused was imaginable, as the sides of Rosaville Road were crowded with Valleysfolk watching the spectacle.
“Gods Above, has Duke Gaven moved all the lieges from Thacel’s territory to the Valley?”
“I’ve said many times before not to measure Thacel by Valley standards. Many of our cities have a population that can equal an entire sub-valley’s. They might have more livestock and vehicles, but their actual population is less than half of ours in big cities.”
“I always thought you were bragging drunkenly, but who would have thought it was true? It seems we who’ve never been outside the Valley have short vision.”
“It’s so grand, truly magnificent. I’ve seen many migrations in my life, but this scale is the first time catching sight. The entire population of Battle Valley added together probably cannot surpass this migration’s numbers. Their addition will undoubtedly bring unprecedented changes to Battle Valley.”
“Such large livestock not only have great transport capacity but are excellent in farming. With their help, I believe Battle Valley will have a large amount of new farmland next year.”
“The most impressive still is their skill in road construction. While the Rosaville Road construction took the Sambiyan Sang people a full ten years, they took mere days to redo it, doubling its width without inciting any discontent among the forest fae race. Not everyone can boast such skill.”
“What previously limited Battle Valley’s development was the road. It was clear Three Rivers Region was fertile land, but it was the most remote corner of the Valley due to lacking a convenient road connecting it. Whatever I can think, Duke Gaven can’t overlook; he must build one or several convenient roads. Before long, the most prosperous area of Battle Valley might shift from Rosaville Road to Three Rivers Region.”
“It’s not only Battle Valley limited due to roads; the entire Valley suffers too. The Northern Horse Path and Moon Sea Road were established by the Mystorno elves; the East Road and Rosaville Road were built by the Sambiyan Sang people. The entire Valley has no road established by Valley People, entrapped by two evil forces, unsurprisingly.”
“I heard Duke Gaven not only plans to build roads but also aims to control the Ashaba River, preparing to turn it into our water highway.”
“I’ve heard of it too, but controlling such a changeable river and building road are entirely separate concepts; I’m afraid it’s not so easy.”
“Before officially seeing the Conqueror Army, I had similar doubts as you, but now I have no concern on this matter. Such an overwhelming size, the eruptive construction strength will definitely exceed our imagination. Even if not for benefiting Valleysfolk, they’ll exert effort for their future progress.”
“Indeed, but with the Conqueror Army being so significant, wouldn’t Duke Gaven overshadow Lord Ilmet? How should Lord Ilmet position himself? If a conflict arises between the two, won’t it easily ignite a war? How should we position ourselves then?”
“Ha… although Lord Ilmet is our lord, being disrespectful, I must say you overestimate Lord Ilmet and ourselves. Lord Ilmet’s warriors don’t exceed a thousand in total, and recruiting five thousand militia in Battle Valley reaches a limit. How do you think this war is to be fought?”
