Chapter 1766: Chapter 129: Desperate asures
The Elf Army has gathered, directly escalating the continent’s situation to a critical point.
Anyone with a bit of insight knows that a new round of continental war is about to erupt.
As the situation suddenly spirals out of control, the most fearful are not the Alpha Kingdom, the igniter, but the collateral victims.
The Dwarf Kingdom, Troll Clan, Moxi Duchy, Black Forest Kingdom, Dante Kingdom, and a series of unfortunate entities caught in between find their hearts collapsing at this mont.
Though the situation was tense earlier, everyone held a bit of hopeful optimism.
The frequent clashes between the Alpha Kingdom and the Orcs were high, happening intermittently, which was within everyone’s expectations.
But now, as it evolves into a continental war, all forces involved are panicking.
It’s been over a decade since the last continental war ended, yet the recent years have been anything but peaceful.
So forces whose developnt didn’t go smoothly haven’t even restored their military strength to the pre-war level.
Even those who saw effective reforms are still in the digestion phase. Transforming the reform benefits into military strength remains a long process.
Complaining is aningless; in a chaotic era, the weak have no say.
Having enjoyed the Alliance’s protection ans one must bear corresponding duties.
When war cos, neither the Human Race nations nor the major Different Races forces have the right to choose.

Jade Palace.
The sudden worsening of continental situations, combined with allies’ fearful appeals for help, directly led to another court eting.
Glancing at the gathered kingdom dignitaries, Caesar IV placed down a stack of docunts.
“The Elf Race’s actions are far more intense than we anticipated.
Protecting the Orc Empire should be their bottom line, which seriously conflicts with the kingdom’s strategy.
The continent stands at a crossroads; if we insist on executing the strategy to annihilate the Orc Empire, a new continental war will be inevitable.
I’ve invited everyone today mainly to unite our stance and discuss what the kingdom should do next!”
Though referring to it as a discussion, everyone knew this was just procedural routine.
According to the initial plan, the Alpha Kingdom indeed wasn’t prepared to annihilate the Orc Empire so quickly, but it can’t be helped that the enemy exposed a flaw.
Despite the kingdom pressing against the Orcs in recent years, everyone knows that annihilating the Orc Empire is entirely different from defeating the Orc Empire.
Historic examples abound where external pressure fosters internal unity.
The slogan to annihilate the Orcs resounds mightily, yet deep down, there’s little confidence, mostly sustained by hatred.
Everyone understands that a united Orc Empire is not sothing the kingdom can obliterate single-handedly.
The Kingdom of God invaders disturbing the Orc Empire nearly sent the kingdom’s leadership into euphoria.
With these entities stirring mishaps from behind, no matter how the Orc Species wish to unite, it’s futile.
If we don’t seize this chance to crush the Orcs utterly, it defies reasoning.
“Your Majesty, let’s mobilize the entire kingdom!
Attack from the east, defend from the west and south.
The kingdom does not fight alone; allies will relieve our burden at the rear.
The Dwarf Kingdom faces the South Continent nations directly and is too occupied to interfere with our battle against the Orcs.
The Troll Clan, Three-Eyed Clan, Stone People Clan have the Three Kingdoms in the Central Continent to deal with, and the Ancient Heritage Alliance has the Moxi People to contend with, with the Elf Race being the only true power capable of interference.
Those decadent elves are so engrossed in art they can’t extricate themselves, with their efficiency terribly low.
If our speed is fast enough, perhaps by the ti we deal with the Orc Empire, the Elf Army will still be on the way!”
Duke Richard’s statent was sowhat exaggerated but also represented the sentints of many nobles within the kingdom.
For this war, the kingdom risked offending multiple nations by forcibly dragging the Human Alliance into the fray.
Given such a high cost, the battle must be fought.
As for solving the Orc Empire before the Elf Army’s attack, that is purely dreaming.
Judging by the map, the Elf Army must pass through the Moxi Duchy or Black Forest Kingdom to invade the kingdom.
But the issue is, there are only a few obstructing provinces in between.
As long as the two countries aren’t foolish, they won’t concentrate their forces in these provinces to fight the Elf Army to the death.
If everything goes as expected, the two countries will make a symbolic resistance, and after pacifying all parties, they’ll open the passage.
There’s nothing to critique here; for a country, any action taken for survival is understandable.
The kingdom’s expectations of its allies are limited to restraining the minor mbers of the Alien Coalition, and if they can delay the Elf Army’s advance a bit, that would be excellent performance.
“Duke Richard is right; with the situation progressed to this point, the kingdom already has an arrow on the string that must be released.
Since the enemy is alert, we need to accelerate our pace to take them by surprise!”
Count Orlan finished, and the erging nobility promptly echoed his sentints.
As an erging nobility widely reliant on martial rits to ascend, they’re naturally the staunch War Faction.
Moreover, with the Elf Army’s invasion, only the old Nobles on the western and southern lines will initially bear the pressure.
The northern side is already frozen over, unsuitable for army passage, and the eastern side is the kingdom’s main offensive direction, rendering their territories highly secure.
For the erging nobility, if they can at the sa ti weaken the old Noble’s Camp while annihilating the Orc Empire, that would be even more perfect.
