Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong
Chapter 1750 - Chapter 1750 Chapter 999 King without a crown

Chapter 1750: Chapter 999 King without a crown Chapter 1750: Chapter 999 King without a crown After a while, Leo Ray was the first to break the silence in the room. He said, “Since the enemy is hidden and we are exposed, instead of worrying blindly, we should focus on enhancing our own strength. As long as we are strong enough, we can remain unshakable like a mountain and adapt to all changes without changing ourselves.”

“Mr. Lane, what you said is very true. The first step in enhancing strength is to thoroughly stabilize the internal affairs of the kingdom. It seems that Princess’s coronation ceremony cannot be delayed any longer, I will go back and prepare immediately.”

Wu nodded at Leo Ray, then turned to Ariel Watson and asked with a gesture to his chest, “Your Highness, I am returning to the Royal Capital now, would you like to visit His Majesty the Old King first?”

“As I left, I had promised at my Father King’s bedside that if possible, I would return with hope and dawn, and restore peace to the smoke-filled Royal City.”

Upon hearing this, although Ariel’s starry eyes were filled with urgency, she ultimately shook her head firmly and responded, “But there are still remnants of the decadent aristocrats that have not been pacified, so I wish to bring this good news to Father King after everything has settled down.”

“Your Highness’s determination is admirable. Then I will wait in the Royal Capital for Your Highness and Mr. Lane’s triumphant return.”

Seeing Ariel’s resolute eyes, Wu nodded heavily and then left under the gaze of Leo Ray and Ariel.

Watching Wu’s departing figure, Leo Ray thoughtfully stroked his chin.

After everything had settled, there was still one thing that had not been clarified – Wu’s true identity.

Based on what had happened in the Illusion Realm of Galaxy City, it was very possible that Wu’s true form was a [Divine Stone], hiding his face for some reason.

However, now was clearly not the time to delve into the nature of Wu’s true form. Knowing he was on our side was sufficient, as proven in the Battle of Galaxy City.

“Lord, I’m afraid Father King might never wake up again.”

Once only Leo Ray and Ariel were left in the reception hall, the Coldflame Princess could no longer hold back and leaned on Leo Ray’s shoulder.

Knowing he had no certainty in healing, Leo Ray did not make any promises but just held her icy slender hand tightly, not letting go for a long time.

…

Over the next two days, under the command of Benson and Linda, our grand army swept through like a breaking bamboo, clearing the remnants of the corrupt nobles.

Leo Ray’s primary task was to deploy troops and transport various supplies to various border fortresses to defend against potential crises.

First of all, the 20 legions of the Northern Army, needless to say, were immediately transported from Crystal Blue City to the Northern Fortress of No Fall, commanded by Caroline, to guard against the Pars Empire.

Following that, the newly-arrived legions and newbie legions, after restructuring, reached a formidable size of 30 legions.

They were dispatched to Mountain Fortress to join Lord White, to guard against Saint Night Kingdom, and to Dragon’s Lair to join Roscoe’s Goblin Legion, to defend against the Outer Region’s Half-Orc Army.

Especially Dragon’s Lair, where Leo Ray had nearly fallen to the Half-Orc Army previously, so naturally, he was careful not to underestimate the threat this time.

As for the specifics of the troops stationed, 20 legions were at Mountain Fortress and 10 legions at Dragon’s Lair.

After all, compared to the Half-Orcs, the increasingly restless Saint Night Kingdom posed a greater threat.

Lastly, the legions of the Lancaster Clan and the Yorkman Clan, needless to say, would also soon return to their respective territories.

The Lancaster family was still guarding against the Grimm Kingdom, while the Yorkman family naturally continued to guard against the Prairie Kingdom.

Although they suffered losses in the Battle of Kael Castle, these two great houses fortunately did not suffer any vital injuries and could easily gather 20 legions each on their existing bases.

“With this, the total garrison size of Mountain Fortress in the eastern region, including Lord White’s troops and Roscoe’s mercenary squad, can reach up to 25 legions.”

“Dragon’s Lair, including Roscoe’s newly recruited Goblin Legion and Dragon’s Lair’s new soldiers, has nearly reached 15 legions in strength.”

“The Northern Fortress of No Fall, under Caroline’s leadership, surpassed 25 legions in garrison size.”

“And the two great houses stationed in the western Sunset Fortress and the southern Rainforest Fortress would also respective reach a force of 20 legions each.”

Early in the morning, in the bright hall of the Lord’s Mansion, with all his main subordinates and territorial commanders around, Leo Ray, holding a slim command stick, stood in front of a large sand table depicting the entire Coldflame Kingdom, nodding thoughtfully.

With this, the five major border fortresses of Coldflame Kingdom adjacent to other countries, were all fully deployed, totaling an army of 105 legions.

“This million-strong army really seems less impressive once spread out.”

Leo Ray’s gaze moved, sweeping over the five gates on the giant sand table, and he couldn’t help but sigh inwardly.

Leo Ray clearly understood that as long as these locations could be held, the Coldflame Kingdom would be as solid as a rock.

“However, although the number sounds huge, nearly half of them are new soldiers. Once we go to war with an enemy country, in front of the opponent’s elite legions, they would hardly even count as cannon fodder.”

“Especially the later stages of the Noble Coalition Army, who in desperation even forcibly recruited weak Free Farmers to the battlefield, whose combat power is even less than my new recruits.”
