Chapter 2349: Chapter 1049: Total Mobilization (Part 2)

The City Lord of Colossus City in the Giant Plains, Gnoll Queen Shanoba.

Shanoba: The master’s order comes at just the right time. These gnolls breed so much that Colossus City can barely contain them.

We might as well take this opportunity to expand, striving to seize the entire southeastern side of the Troll Mountains and incorporate it into the territory of Colossus City.

The City Lord of Efanso City on the Giant Dragon Coast, Legion Commander of the Avenger Corps, Yeshandalah.

Yeshandalah: Full-scale bandit extermination? Prepare for battle, the entire army must prepare for battle.

Although there aren’t so many Jackalweres and Ghouls around Efanso, the Giant Plains and Goblin Margins are teeming with them. Once they are fully cleared there, they will surely flee everywhere, affecting not just us but the surrounding cities as well.

Send this message to the Giant Dragon Coast Alliance at the fastest speed and have them cooperate in the bandit extermination, or face the consequences.

The City Lord of the City of Faith in the Goblin Margins, Legion Commander of the Severed Limb Corps, Carl.

Carl: The moment to test our oaths has arrived. The honorable Conqueror commands that we completely conquer this wilderness, driving out all Jackalweres and monsters, turning this place into a paradise for humans.

Temporary Lord of Valley Battle Valley, the fourth Chosen of Lady Strategy, Veranika, and Minister of Propaganda, Regina.

Veranika: Our immigrants have already taken root to some extent, establishing a foundation. Indeed, it’s time to undertake a thorough governance of the surrounding environment. We need to effectively combine the regular army with local militia to achieve the maximum defeat of the enemy, preventing them from roaming freely within the territory and causing more destruction.

Regina: Relying solely on Battle Valley is ultimately too small, only driving those monsters to other valleys or the Comanso Great Forest, impacting and damaging the forest even more.

Prepare yourselves, give me some time, and I will mobilize as many people of nature and Valley People as possible to join this joint bandit extermination war. Even if those monsters have to roam, it mustn’t be our forest or other sub-valleys. Either drive them to Thunder Peak or let them go south, causing trouble for the merchants of Sambia.

Temporary Lord of Desperate East Domain Giant Valley and Far East Territory, the second Chosen of Lady Strategy, Katherine.

Katherine: It seems the First Lord Knight is going to have an all-out war with the Ghoul King and the King of the Jackalweres. Unexpectedly, he has managed to unify the Plains of Bone in such a short time.

This matter, either do not do it or maximize its value.

All regions must keep in step, mobilize everyone who can be mobilized.

Let all participants know why they are fighting, for whom they are fighting, and who is protecting them, making the names of Lady Strategy and the Conqueror resound throughout Felen.

At the same time, the lords and city lords who received the same orders reacted differently, as they each have their own predicaments and interests to address.

This unprecedented multi-territory coordinated military action will easily break their original predicaments, allowing them to take the opportunity to do what they want, perfectly merging their own little calculations and plans into it.

...

Giant Plains, outside Blood Gorge City.

Here, two straight avenues intersect.

Both avenues can accommodate eight Tower War Chariots side by side, paved entirely with jet-black asphalt, smooth and clean, even wooden wheels seem unwilling to make a sound as they travel on them.

From time to time, a squad of Hobgoblin Soldiers, clad in bright red armor and averaging over two meters tall, would march past here, eyes forward and steps in unison.

The sides of the trade routes tell another story, with rows of well-planned large roadside inns and various shops.

The inns are already crowded with all sorts of vehicles and livestock, most vehicles are packed full with goods, and the tired cries of animals echo continuously.

In the blacksmith’s shop, the sound of hammering rises and falls, sparks flying, lights bright as day, clearly prepared for an all-night effort. They must complete rush orders before dawn to ensure merchants can depart on time.

In the bakery, the sweet aroma is mouthwatering.

The butchers shout about how fresh their meat is, while nearby vegetable and fruit stalls offer a lush display of greenery, with watermelons, eggplants, and carrots piled into tempting little hills.

The livestock market is even livelier, with horses neighing, cows mooing, pigs grunting, and dogs barking in a cacophony.

The meticulously groomed horses glisten with shine, especially the colossal livestock unique to the Giant Plains, each surrounded by at least three or four merchants, many of whom marvel at and admire its gigantic legs, taller than some of them altogether.

Bidding calls ring out repeatedly at the auctions.

Each auction draws a crowd of spectators, sometimes inciting bursts of excited shouts.

Even for these moderately wealthy merchants, bidding on a colossal livestock is no small decision. Their starting bid is already two thousand Gold Coins.

But as long as they have enough financial power, they will make sure to secure at least one.

Because it’s a sure-fire, risk-free purchase, as soon as they are taken out of the Giant Plains, their value immediately skyrockets by more than twenty percent.

"Eighty thousand."

"Eighty-five thousand."

"Ninety thousand."
