Chapter 163: the orc diversionary force Approaching the Lance province, The Legendary Peak Wolf Girl

Debit City, Governor's Mansion.

Hundreds of imperial nobles have arrived one after another.

Gathered in the council chamber.

No one had the mood for idle chatter, their faces showed a serious expression.

It was quite obvious, that orc diversionary force, which was near the province of Lance, has brought them great pressure.

"I hope that orc diversionary force doesn't have any half god Grade powerhouse leading them."

"Otherwise, things will be troublesome."

Feeling the heavy atmosphere on the scene.

Rennes, sitting in the council chamber, also felt some worry in his heart.

This orc diversionary force was coming with great momentum.

If they don't stop, the province of Lance will inevitably be its next target and be trampled by it.

By then...

Just when Rennes was considering how to deal with this crisis.

Governor Loska hurriedly walked in.

"Everyone, the situation is urgent, so I won't waste words with pleasantries."

"I believe everyone is aware of the news of the Empire's frontline defeat."

"Now the orc army is rampaging within our Kukarn Empire."

"A detached force of the orcs army is already heading towards the province of Lance."

"According to current intelligence, the highest commander of this orc force is a 20th-level wolf woman, suspected to be a berserker with extremely strong strength..."

"In addition, this orc army also has two 16th-level legendary powerhouses, and there is also a Bison behemoth..."

"The number of their orc soldiers is approximately around 500,000, with elite troops of at least intermediate warrior level..."

Governor Loska immediately revealed all the intelligence he knew.

These pieces of intelligence were obtained by him through his connections with other armies that have fought against this orc force in the past few days.

He didn't dare to say they are 100% accurate, but they are definitely close enough.

And as soon as he finished speaking.

The council chamber fell silent.

Everyone was stunned, 500,000 elite orcs with at least intermediate warrior level.

And one Bison behemoth and three legendary powerhouses.

Among them, one of them has reached the 20th level in strength.

It was only one step away from breaking through to the 21st level and achieving the realm of a demigod.

The strength of this orc force is truly formidable.

Even if all the nobles in the province of Lance united, they wouldn't be able to contend with it.

Of course, this is without considering the exceptional combat power of Rennes himself.

"It's good that there is no half god Grade existence."

Rennes breathed a sigh of relief.

With his current strength, as long as there is no half god Grade existence making a move, he can completely handle it without any reservations.

So there shouldn't be any problem blocking this orc force.

Everyone freely expressed their opinions and discussed strategies to resist this orc diversionary force.

Several hours later, everyone reached a consensus.

It was decided that each family would send their armed forces to form a joint army and station it in the border city between the provinces of Lance and Jike - the city of Dilan.

At the same time, they would mobilize masters of arrays to strengthen the city's defensive magic array.

In short, they would use all means to stop this orc diversionary force from entering the province of Lance.

After the pre-war meeting, everyone returned home and began mobilizing their family's armed forces to head to the city of Dilan.

Two days later, Rennes led the Griffin Knights and arrived at the city of Dilan.

With him came his daughter, Hilda.

Since there are no rules on the battlefield and for the sake of Hilda's safety, he originally didn't want her to come along.

However, Hilda said she is the commander of the knight order of the Habsburg family.

So she absolutely cannot be absent, insisting on coming along.

Unable to resist his stubborn daughter, and considering that changing commanders right before the battle would indeed reduce the combat effectiveness of the knight order, Rennes had no choice but to bring Hilda along.

Anyway, he's here, there's no need to worry about Hilda getting into trouble.

Arriving at the barracks in the city of Dillan.

Many soldiers wearing various types of armor are gathered here.

These people are all private soldiers of the major nobles in the province of Lance.

Now they are all gathered in the barracks, naturally at the request of Governor Loska.

After all, facing the large-scale invasion of the orc force, it is impossible for each family to fight alone.

Only through unified coordination can the strongest combat power be exerted.

After transferring the temporary command of the Griffin Knights to Governor Loska, Rennes was not idle either.

He started to arrange some back-up plans, to ensure that this crucial battle can be won smoothly.

Although the apparent strength of this orc force does not exceed his ability to cope, but who knows what powerful trump cards these orcs have up their sleeves.

A lion must go all out to catch a rabbit.

And he has already learned his lesson from underestimating the fox lady before.

Naturally, he won't make the same mistake again.

"The third-level magic lock, Boundless Void Lock, plus the 9th level magic scroll obtained from Orian before - Thunder of Destruction, should be enough to deal with this orc force."

Rennes calculated in his mind.

The three-realm magic lock, Infinite Void Lock, is enough to trap and kill most legendary powerhouses.

The 9th level magic scroll - Thunder of Destruction is also a powerful weapon.

Even a half god Grade powerhouse, if caught off guard, they would still suffer heavy injuries.

However, this thing is a disposable item.

Once used, it's gone.

Plus, it is extremely precious and difficult to get or make.

Therefore, unless absolutely necessary, Rennes will not use this 9th level magic scroll.

After setting up the back-up plans, he also set up some magic arrays for surveillance around the city of Dilan.

After all preparations were made, Rennes, who had nothing else to do, began to guide his daughter Hilda in her training.

In the blink of an eye.

A week has passed.

On this day.

Rennes, who was still guiding his daughter's training, suddenly sensed that the alarm magic array he had set up was triggered.

He intentionally set up this alarm magic array to only be triggered when a large number of creatures pass through within a short period of time.

The possibility of a false alarm is almost nonexistent.

"The orc diversionary force is here."

Rennes's gaze froze as he looked towards the southeast.

At the same time.

In a dense forest a hundred kilometers southeast of the city of Dilan.

Tens of thousands of orcs wearing rough iron armor were continuously advancing.

Leading them was.

A valiant wolf woman wearing black magic leather armor, with a pair of wolf ears on her head, her long silver hair casually draped.

Below is a delicate and petite oval face, which was filled with fearless and confident aura.

Paired with a healthy yet rough looking skin, her whole body exuded an untamed wildness.

"Lady Melita, the scout team has discovered a human magic array nearby. Our whereabouts may have been exposed."

"Should we change our direction of attack?"

A male werewolf walked over and reported the situation.

"No need."

"Based on the intelligence from the scouts, there is no main knight force of the Kukarn Empire or a demigod in the Lance Province ahead."

"Just some private soldiers of the human nobles."

"They are not our opponents at all."

"We can just crush them in one swoop."

Melita said nonchalantly.

Even if their tracks were discovered in advance, so what?

In the face of absolute strength, everything is futile.

"Yes."

An hour later.

This orc force arrived at the outskirts of the city of Dilan.

A great battle was about to begin.
