Chapter 360: 358 Only One Choice_1
Listening to Angelina’s words, Catalan’s face turned red and then pale, looking quite interesting.
After a while, Catalan seemed to finally regain his composure. He gritted his teeth and looked at Angelina, saying, “Are you sure everything you just said is true?”
“True!”
Angelina nodded repeatedly.
“No lies?”
“Absolutely no lies!”
Catalan plopped back into his seat, and the expression of the entire Elf had become much more exhausted and aged.
He looked at Angelina with a complex expression, and his voice softened, “Then when will the supply team arrive?”
Angelina said seriously, “If everything goes well, they should arrive tomorrow!”
“Good!”
Catalan stared fiercely at Angelina: “I hope nothing goes wrong!”
If it were only one day, the Dawn Legion could barely wait.
Unlike the evil monsters, the righteous warriors, whether hypocritical or not, could at least maintain a certain degree of rationality and order in such a difficult situation.
But this premise is that this situation does not last too long.
To avoid unnecessary losses, Catalan ordered a temporary halt to the hunt for the Undead in Purgatory City.
Fighting is strenuous, and it is better to avoid intense exercise as much as possible before sufficient food supplementation can be secured.
Being only hungry for one day, the Dawn Legion was able to maintain stability under the leaders’ appeasement.
Thus, another day passed.
Catalan stared at the setting sun with bloodshot eyes, his expression tense and his mouth twitching constantly.
Angelina’s promised help had still not arrived today.
With two consecutive days of hunger, the morale of the Dawn Legion had begun to collapse.
At the same time, a terrifying thought emerged in Catalan’s mind.
If the supply team still hadn’t arrived by tomorrow, chaos and even mutiny would inevitably erupt in the Dawn Legion.
Even those on the side of goodness, when driven to the extreme by hunger, could do anything.
In this Dragon Bone Wasteland, where rocks and sand are everywhere, it is extremely difficult to find edible flora and fauna.
More importantly, their enemy is the Undead.
Even if one can overcome morality and ethics due to extreme hunger, there are no enemy bones available for food.
If it really came to that point, the starving people would do anything.
And what about withdrawing from the Dragon Bone Wasteland at this point?
Regrettably, this option is unrealistic, too.
It might not have been a problem when there were still two days of food, but a hungry army cannot march out of this desert.
They had missed the best opportunity to leave the Dragon Bone Wasteland.
At this thought, Catalan’s face looked haggard, as if he had aged several years in an instant.
At this time, his close friend Mentor walked in slowly, and he looked coldly at the visitor without speaking for a while.
In the end, it was Mentor who took the initiative to say, “Angelina is gone!”
“What did you say?”
Catalan suddenly came to his senses, though this was negative energy.
For a moment, he could hardly believe what he had heard.
Mentor seemed to understand Catalan’s thoughts very well, he sighed, and then sat next to him, wrapping his arm consolingly around his friend’s shoulder.
“My friend, you heard me right. Angelina, the Queen of Vide, is missing!”
Catalan’s mouth opened and closed, but he couldn’t even squeeze out a single word.
Seeing this, Mentor went on with a sigh, “Not only that, but all the Vide people in the Dawn Legion have suddenly disappeared.
I asked others, but not a single one of them could say when they had gone missing.
Even though most of the people are starving, this is too strange. After all, there are many Vide people in the Dawn Legion.
Such a large group of people disappearing without a trace, and without any noise, is highly problematic, no matter how you look at it!”
“Let them disappear, the most important thing now is the supply team! If they don’t appear again, we’ll soon starve to death in this damned Dragon Bone Wasteland!”
As he said this, Catalan became increasingly agitated, and even grabbed Mentor’s collar and roared, “Are you saying we should gnaw on some dry bones to stave off hunger?”
“Slap!”
With a crisp sound, Catalan stared in disbelief at Mentor, who had just slapped him across the face.
“Wake up! We have to face reality!”
As Catalan still stared blankly, Mentor continued, “Angelina and the Vide people’s disappearance is definitely not an accident, and the promised supply team still hasn’t arrived.
I’ve sent people to investigate in Vide’s direction, and the information that has been returned so far is that there’s not even a single person on the road they must take!”
“What do you mean?”
“We were deceived!”
Mentor smiled bitterly, “I’m now seriously suspecting that Angelina and the Purgatory Demon Dragon are in cahoots! We’ve been played by that disgusting woman!”
“How…how could this be?”
Catalan looked incredulous, thinking that humans couldn’t possibly collaborate with the Undead and evil dragons…
Mentor scoffed at this, “The human bottom line is much lower than you think! There’s nothing humanity can’t do!
Damn it! I should have suspected them earlier. Angelina, that disgusting woman, must have made a deal with the Purgatory Demon Dragon long ago.
Otherwise, how could she, an impoverished kingdom’s princess, achieve such a feat as restoring her kingdom in such a short time, defeating the new Lait King, and even claiming his victory spoils!”
Catalan stared blankly for a moment before shouting angrily, “Damn it, I swear I’ll never let her go!”
“Alright, it has already happened, and now the Dawn Legion is in this situation. We need to come up with a strategy!”
“But what should we do?”
Faced with such an event, Catalan became somewhat at a loss.
Mentor gritted his teeth, “There is still some time before our own supply team arrives, and it is difficult for the Dawn Legion to retreat in its current state.”
“So in your opinion, are we completely done for?”
Catalan’s face showed reluctance.
“There might still be a chance…”
Mentor stared at Catalan, asking, “There should be many Silver Dragons and other Metal Dragons hidden in our Dawn Legion, right? If we can convince them to reveal their true forms and transport food for us…”
“Impossible!”
Catalan immediately shook his head, certain that, “With the pride of Dragons, they will never do such a thing for Dain!”
Upon hearing this, Mentor first looked disappointed, and then said lightly, “Then we have only one option left…”
