World-Ending Demon Emperor
Chapter 1615 - 715: Destiny Showdown! Regicide and Rebellion?
CHAPTER 1615: CHAPTER 715: DESTINY SHOWDOWN! REGICIDE AND REBELLION?
The highest command of the Demon Alliance has moved to the border line of the Rakshasa Tribe.
How to describe this border line?
As solid as gold soup? A great wall of steel? A man-made natural barrier?
The border line between the Tiancha tribe and the Rakshasa Tribe is approximately 1,700 miles.
This 1,700 miles includes great rivers, high mountains, valleys, and plains!
But none of this matters because there really is a Great Wall here.
The Rakshasa King is someone with a very strong sense of crisis, so he began building a defensive wall decades ago, not only at the border with the Tiancha tribe but even along the border with the Yun E Clan.
The border line between the Rakshasa Tribe and the Tiancha tribe is 1,700 miles, but the border with the Yun E Clan exceeds ten thousand miles.
So, over hundreds to thousands of years, the Yun E Clan built several thousand miles of the Great Wall, while the Rakshasa Tribe built over twenty thousand miles.
The Rakshasa Tribe borders three tribes: the Tiancha tribe, the Yun E Clan, and the Bloodfiend Tribe, and along all these borders, the Rakshasa Tribe built walls.
Among these three sections of the Great Wall, the one on the border with the Tiancha tribe is the tallest, thickest, and most solid.
The Rakshasa Tribe and the Tiancha tribe’s border is 1,700 miles, but the built wall exceeds 3,000 miles because in many places building one layer was not enough, so they built two layers of walls.
The city wall of Lanling’s Flame Demon City, at its tallest, reaches up to fifteen meters, which is already very impressive. But compared to the Rakshasa Tribe’s walls, it’s like child’s play.
The highest point of the Rakshasa Tribe and the Tiancha tribe’s border defense line is over thirty-five meters tall, and the lowest exceeds twenty-one meters.
To build the Great Wall, the Rakshasa King would recruit at least five to six hundred thousand slaves every year, with the number even exceeding two to three million at times.
Since a few years ago, feeling the ambition of the Tiancha King, more than three million barbarian slaves have been used along the border line, working day and night to repair and strengthen the Great Wall’s defenses.
Along the 1,700-mile border line between the Tiancha tribe and the Rakshasa Tribe, over two hundred seventy castles were built, meaning there’s an average of one castle every six to seven miles.
Now, more than nine million troops of the Demon Alliance are stationed along this defense line. On average, there are over five thousand soldiers defending every mile of wall.
From the sky, the number of military camps is countless, like mushrooms in the mountains.
Soldiers are as dense as ants.
Every moment, the Sky Legion patrols the air with more than one hundred thousand troops.
And less than a hundred miles away from the Rakshasa defense line is the united army of the Demon Empire, with over six million troops gathered there.
So, each side’s every move is completely known to the other.
Such a massive spectacle, Lanling had never seen before, neither in reality nor in movies or television.
On Earth, there has never been a war with such a vast scene, where over fifteen million troops are assembled on a border line over a thousand miles long.
And on this 1,700-mile border line, one can see the most diverse species.
Various barbarian tribes, beast tribes, giant tribes, cannibal clans.
Various griffins, harpies, vultures, dragon hawks, with over a hundred kinds of flying mounts.
And even more so with land mounts, whose varieties are too many to count.
The highest command of the Demon Alliance is built on the tallest peak along the border, directly named Rakshasa Peak.
This highest command center’s castle is not built with stones, but carved out of the mountain top.
This castle, named Rakshasa Palace, stands at 7,000 meters above sea level and can accommodate up to fifty thousand people, with all necessary materials and supplies available inside.
The relocation of the highest command center of the Demon Alliance to this location is most suitable.
...
Usually, when the Rakshasa King came to this seven-thousand-meter-high palace, he would look down upon the earth with great pride, waves of grand emotions surging in his heart.
But now, he felt nothing but endless irritation and unease.
There were too many things troubling him: the upcoming catastrophic battle, Lanling’s invasion and massacre under the Demon Banner, and the matter of the Crown Prince.
Three days ago, Military Advisor Xiting reported that the Crown Prince personally led five thousand Ghoul Ray Legion to order Lanling to withdraw, but there has been no outcome so far.
At this moment, a ghoul ray was approaching from afar, then landed directly on the balcony of the castle room where the Demon Lord was present.
"Master..." The Ghoul Ray Knight knelt down directly upon seeing the Demon Lord, and said: "Lanling Army is advancing north, surrounding Demon City, Elder Can Xue sent me to urgently request support, time is of the essence!"
The Demon Lord’s body trembled, anger boiling in his heart.
Did the Rakshasa Crown Prince not go to the Demon Banner to order Lanling to retreat?
In the Demon Lord’s view, asking the Little Rakshasa King to kill Lanling and suppress him was impossible, but ordering him to retreat should have been completely doable.
However...not only did Lanling not retreat, but he also surrounded Demon City.
This...this is simply outrageous, pushing the limits!
Is the Crown Prince worthless?
At this moment, the Little Rakshasa King was flying closer and closer on a ghoul ray, heading toward the Rakshasa Palace.
The Demon Lord immediately went to the palace where the Rakshasa King was!
...
Internal affairs should not be exposed to outsiders, so there were only a few people in the majestic golden palace.
The Rakshasa King, Prince You Ming, Elder Mokan, Madam Heisha, Young Master Gutu, Demon Lord.
The Little Rakshasa King entered the great hall and knelt on one knee before the Rakshasa King, saying, "Father!"
The Rakshasa King said coldly, "Crown Prince, how have you handled your task?"
