Winter General! Fall In!
As the Gray Desert Expeditionary Army assembled at Sin Fortress and advanced into the seemingly endless desert before them, the fighting along the Locust Wall behind them had never let up since the first day. The scale of the war varied from one sector to another, though.

With elite forces from every race gathered there, Old Qin had ample opportunity to put his command skills to use. And with the Gnoll Kingdom at his back and long-range supply runs from the Vampire Coast, logistics were no concern at all. The situation there could only be described as "surprisingly stable."
The swarm had committed enormous forces to this front. There were four main hives, each covering more than ten square kilometers, and smaller hives dotted the surrounding area. The land east of the wall had nearly become swarm territory, yet even so, the insects still couldn't break through the towering wall in force.
It was like a "Wall of Sighs" for the swarm.
It held the main body of the swarm's army back, preventing it from setting its sights on the world within civilization's borders.
