Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 3150: Chapter 110: Queen of Pain’s Heart Is Exhausted (Part 2)

Even with the elite Demonic Army led by the four Great Commanders coming to support later, they were still slightly lacking in overall troop strength. If they lost the Fear route’s reinforcements, the coalition’s overall power would inevitably be affected.

Under normal circumstances, they might not actually care about that bit of impact, but now Apocalypse and Fallen were tearing into each other, and if the Fear route had another problem, the situation would definitely become even more complicated. One careless move and it would give East Xia an opening to exploit.

Still, even though she was cursing Fear to hell and back in her heart, the Queen of Pain kept a pleasant smile on her face out of a ”solve the problem” mindset: ”Great Commander Dread, difficulties are only temporary. I asked everyone to come to this meeting today precisely so we can get out of the predicament in front of us.”

”Your Majesty, I suffer so much～ it’s so hard for me～” Great Commander Dread’s projection was filled with misery. ”The Dongxia Left Route Army is like a rabid dog, grabbing onto me and tearing at me nonstop. A few days ago they even broke through and raided my rear, destroying my supply lines. In this situation, how am I supposed to hold out? And I’ve heard that the Human race of North Shu God Continent is already itching to move... If this keeps up, my Demon Department is going to get beaten half to death. If something goes wrong over in North Shu God Continent on top of that, then even my foundations will be gone, and I’ll be nothing but a stray dog from then on.”

”Fear, we’re all here to glorify the Supreme’s dark radiance.” The Tyrant Lord shouted angrily, ”You can’t become a deserter just because things get a little difficult, can you?”

Great Commander Dread shut up after being scolded.

He didn’t argue with the Tyrant Lord either, just lowered his head, his eyes rolling around as if he didn’t know what he was thinking.

”Alright, alright～” At this moment, the Queen of Pain stood up to play the good cop. ”Alright, alright, Tyrant, don’t just stand there talking without your back hurting. We’re all well aware of Fear’s current difficulties. The logistics are destroyed, casualties among the troops are too heavy. Here’s what we’ll do: some of the territory that Tyrant and I occupy, we’ll first split off a portion for you. You can rely on your own ability to replenish your forces. In addition, I’ll also discuss it with Tyrant so we can allocate part of our supplies to you.”

”Many thanks, Your Majesty.” Great Commander Dread’s expression immediately brightened after getting some benefits, and he kept declaring his loyalty. ”Rest assured, I, Fear, will swear my life to pin down the Dongxia Left Route Army.”

As he spoke, he even slapped his chest loudly, ”pa pa,” looking for all the world like, ”trust me, you can’t go wrong.”

Seeing this, the Queen of Pain and the Tyrant Lord exchanged a glance, both finally relaxing in their hearts.

Although it required paying a certain price, at least Fear had been soothed. It was just some territory and supplies; they could afford that.

Yet what they didn’t know was that, right now, Great Commander Dread was secretly delighted in his heart.

No wonder he was my good younger brother Rich; just a few casual pointers from him and he showed me a clear way out. In a situation like this, I can still bite off a chunk of flesh from the Queen of Pain and the Tyrant Lord.

And with the Queen of Pain feeling that Great Commander Dread had already been properly appeased, she now turned her gaze to Great Commander Fallen and Great Commander Apocalypse.

Her expression sank, and she said coldly, ”Apocalypse, the fact that you survived and returned is of course a good thing. But instead of attacking the Dongxia Army, you spend all day hounding Fallen—what exactly are you trying to do? No matter what, the few of us came here to help you.”

”Heh, Your Majesty and Lord Tyrant indeed came to help, that’s true, and I, Apocalypse, will remember that kindness in my heart. But what kind of Nature that brat Fallen has, the two of you aren’t unaware, are you?” Great Commander Apocalypse looked like he had suffered every grievance in the world. ”Every time he occupies one of my territories, the first thing he does is scrape the place bare three feet deep and unleash utter devastation. His cruelty and greed are a hundred times worse than the Dongxia Army.”

”Besides, do you know how he treats my former subordinates? My Purple Charm Demon Lord and Blood Dove Demon Lord not only fight with all their might, they have to endure humiliation on top of it!”

In fact—

Before Great Commander Apocalypse even launched his attack on Great Commander Fallen, he had already started a ferocious public-opinion war, broadcasting all the things Fallen had done one by one, especially the footage of him publicly humiliating Zhiwei and Blood Pigeon, which had spread throughout the Demonic Realm.

Even the Queen of Pain and the Tyrant Lord, after seeing that footage, felt that the kid Fallen was really not a decent creature, and that provoking Apocalypse’s fury was only to be expected.

”Apocalypse! I’ve already apologized to you about that.” Great Commander Fallen’s eyes flashed. ”I’ve already yielded again and again—don’t think that means I’m afraid of you.”

Lately Great Commander Fallen was also quite vexed. First he got pinned down and beaten into the ground by Apocalypse, then he was repeatedly ambushed by the Dongxia Army, suffering no small losses.

And things weren’t peaceful in Southern Blaze Divine Continent either; it had clashed several times with the Fallen Demon Realm. Fortunately, the subordinates he left in charge were relatively reliable and managed to defuse Southern Blaze Divine Continent’s crisis. Otherwise, if he were forced to withdraw back to the Fallen Demon Realm now, wouldn’t that mean coughing up everything he’d eaten? All those losses would have been for nothing?

”If apologies worked, what would we need armies for?” Great Commander Apocalypse sneered over and over. ”My good brother, I told you already: everything you did to me, I’ll reclaim one by one.”

”Enough, stop arguing!”

The Queen of Pain impatiently cut the two demons off from continuing their squabble.

Looking at the two Great Commanders, she felt a headache coming on.

Originally, she’d thought that, following the Supreme’s orders and coming here together with Tyrant to settle this matter—if not effortless, it should at least be a matter of things naturally falling into place.

She had never expected that after arriving here, things would only go smoothly for a few years before all sorts of bizarre crap started popping up one after another.
