Global Lords: Hundredfold Increments Starting With the Undead-Chapter 878 - 567, Spade White Temptress Demon
All factions have their own intelligence channels.
When the Federation learned about the danger in the Great Cemetery of Odys, it also began to focus on scouting information from the eastern borders, and obtaining some news was unsurprising.
But such a significant change in just one day did startle Fang Hao.
"How’s the situation over at the Federation?" Fang Hao asked.
Li Rong replied, "Today alone, the Hall of Justice, the Mage Association, and the Church held several meetings. Judging from the content of the talks and the expressions of those involved, the situation in the Federation isn’t good. Food and equipment haven’t been delivered, and reinforcements from the cities are still on their way."
"So?"
"They say that if war were to break out now, Santor Fort would not withstand three days, and that’s counting on a siege," Li Rong said.
Three days was even an overestimate for the Undead.
Once the Undead chose not to attack Santor Fort but instead bypassed it and entered the Federation’s territory directly, the danger to the other cities would increase even more.
The Undead don’t need to eat or drink and naturally don’t need to capture cities one by one to ensure logistics.
"So, the Federation must be terrified, right?" Fang Hao continued.
"Terrified, especially the City Lord of Santor Fort; his voice trembled when discussing these matters," Li Rong said.
Fang Hao thought for a moment, then continued, "If anything happens, ensure your safety first, then let me know to come and get you."
"Okay, I understand."
After ending the call, Fang Hao stared pensively at the Book of Lords.
The situation in the Great Cemetery and the Federation was progressing faster than he had anticipated.
He had thought that the standoff and discussions would drag on for months.
War seemed likely by summer.
But now, it seemed that the previous troop deployments in the Great Cemetery were targeting the Hundred Cities Federation.
Perhaps the war would start sooner than expected. Find your next read on novelbuddy
And the entire Federation would be dragged into this war.
Sitting in his chair, he pondered for a while.
It still seemed better to notify the Gold Eating Queen Amanda of this message.
He called for Demitrija, activated the teleportation screen, and the two disappeared into the light.
...
The cold Blood Castle Hall.
Ha!
Stretching her slender legs, she yawned, "Why are you here again?"
Meanwhile, the Gold Eating Queen Amanda, sitting securely in her seat, held the golden scepter in her hand.
Yet her gaze was directed toward the newly arrived pair.
Fang Hao sat down beside them and directly said, "I just received intelligence from Odys, I’ve come to discuss it with you."
Rolana showed no change, but Amanda sat up a bit.

Fang Hao continued, "Odys and the Federation had five rounds of negotiations that all ended in failure and just now news came from the human side that Odys will soon launch an attack, and the humans are also preparing for combat."
"So soon?"
Rolana said in surprise, lowering her legs.
Amanda, an Undead, also showed a surprised expression.
Neither had expected Odys would plan to attack so soon.
Fang Hao noted their reactions.
He continued, "I came here to see what you think."
Amanda pondered for a moment and then spoke, "Although Odys’s actions have begun much earlier than we anticipated, the overall plan hasn’t changed at all. Once Odys engages with the Federation, we can directly enter the territory of the Great Cemetery and take back the lands we lost."
Fang Hao nodded.
This indeed had no impact on the overall plan.
He thought about the information Li Rong had shared with him.
He added, "Another point is to ensure that the Federation can hold and tie down Odys’s forces, otherwise letting them breach into the Federation would pose a significant danger."
War was a nutrition supplement for the Undead, allowing them time to transform.
Their forces would keep growing until they exhausted the enemy.
Thus, eliminating Odys’s forces and avoiding giving them a chance to recuperate was crucial.
"What? Can’t the humans hold back?" Amanda asked.
Fang Hao scoffed, "Peace has made humans forget the threat of the enemy. The City Lord stationed at Santor Fort lacks competence, and the city defenses are a mess. The artillery on the walls is still being repaired, and with the winter just over, there’s a shortage of food. Anyway, the intelligence from the Federation is, they can hold back the army for three days."
"Three days, that short!"
Fang Hao thought for a moment, then continued, "Well, since the Federation has realized this, they should soon make arrangements. After all, the scale of the Hundred Cities Federation is there; as long as time permits, supplies and weapons can be supported."
The nobles of the Federation, each one immensely wealthy, lived lives of silk and luxury.
The threat of the Undead, obviously, worried and frightened them the most.
They would surely use every possible means to mobilize all available resources to resist the Undead’s attack.
What they needed to consider was how to quickly win the battles on their own front.
Amanda continued, "The routes and maps are already problem-free and won’t affect the combat."
Fang Hao nodded, adding, "Yes, I’m not worried about the combat side of things, but after it ends, how to ease relations with the Federation still needs to be considered."
