"The scout team was wiped out?" Gatu looked puzzled. He had previously gathered some intelligence and knew that the Pseudo-King of the Worth Kingdom had been captured. Now, only the north of the Worth Kingdom remained entangled with the undead.
As for Earl Landon's Moonlight Werewolf Corps, Gatu was also wary of them.
That was right. In the Aolei Kingdom's view, Lu Xingshi was still Earl Landon and held the legitimate claim to the Worth Kingdom.
After all, the one who had issued the order of dismissal was the Pseudo-King, so his royal decree was naturally not to be trusted.
Thus, Gatu had dispatched an advance force to investigate, only for every unit to vanish without a trace.
He actually knew what change had occurred. Nothing more than total annihilation.
"It seems I'll have to request reinforcements." Gatu keenly sensed that the situation had taken a turn for the worse.
The undead in the north of the Worth Kingdom might not pose a threat, but the Moonlight Werewolf Corps was absolutely a formidable enemy.
Thus, the best way to avoid his entire army being wiped out was to have the Empire send more troops as support.
The Empire's upper ranks actually knew that Earl Landon was a tough bone to chew. Taking him down would not be easy. However, the upper ranks of the Empire were a tangled web, with the Noble Faction and Steam Faction locked in endless conflict.
That was right. The Aolei Empire had undergone many reforms. The original Noble Faction had already declined, while the Steam Faction, empowered by the Steam Engine, had gradually become the true controller of the Aolei Empire.
As for the monarch and Imperial Family of the Aolei Empire? They had gradually been reduced to puppets.
Gatu had little objection to this,
