Chapter 1054 -648: Mysterious Commander_2
Thinking of the look of awe on Ariel Watson’s face when she mentioned this guy, Leo Ray couldn’t help but curl his lip.
It wasn’t hard to see from this that the strength of the White Knight was indeed extraordinary and could be considered one of his most formidable opponents, aside from the mysterious organization.
“Also, although the Second Prince’s faction doesn’t have a Tie 5 Powerhouse, the number of Tier 4 Powerhouses under his command is almost on par with the Great Prince. This is probably why he has not been defeated by the Great Prince so far.”
Leo Ray’s gaze continued to move across the list, and he nodded thoughtfully.
“According to the constant influx of intel from all territories in the Royal Capital, the Great Prince’s faction gains an advantage in smaller conflicts inside and outside the royal city, causing the Second and Fourth Princes to be on the defensive. After all, there are more traditional nobles in the vicinity of the royal city.”
“But as the battle expands, the advantage of the Great Prince’s faction becomes less and less apparent. Coupled with the Second and Fourth Princes’ subtle collaborative stance, the livid Great Prince refuses to show weakness. This leads to the current escalating situation.”
Setting down the parchment in his hand, Leo Ray turned his solemn gaze back to the white-haired old general seated below him. “General Bert, in your opinion, who will the Great Prince and the Second Prince most likely dispatch as commanders?”
“My Lord, considering their full mobilization, both princes seem to take this battle very seriously, which means they must send their most trusted generals.”
Bowing to Leo Ray, Bert stroked his white beard, replying, “Therefore, my subordinate believes that the four Kingdom Generals and the White Knight have the greatest possibility.”
“As expected, huh? Neither of them will be easy opponents to deal with.”
Gently rubbing the parchment in his hand, Leo Ray nodded thoughtfully, his expression growing more serious.
During the Mountain Fortress Defense Battle, he faced the Saint Night’s Red Devil, who was on par with the Eight Great Generals of the Coldflame Kingdom. His opponent had used multiple trump cards, such as August Montgomery, the vanishing legion, the Gryphon Squadron, and deployed their troops very effectively.
And now, he would face at least two opponents of the same level, not to mention the mysterious organization lurking in the shadows.
“Nevermind, I’ve got Bert and Joshua under my command, as well as the numerous hidden cards I’ve prepared. At least on the surface, I’m not necessarily at a disadvantage.”
Just as Leo Ray thought this…
Bert’s aged voice resounded, “My Lord, among these people, the one we need to be most cautious about is the White Knight.”
Pausing for a moment, Bert sternly added, “His ability to command troops and deploy strategies is no less than any Kingdom General. He rarely appears in public, but in the few battles over the past years, whenever an enemy tried to touch Coldflame, he would lead his troops and strike a fatal blow.”
After speaking, Bert involuntarily swallowed.
A few years ago, he fought briefly alongside the White Knight.
The Tier 5 powerhouse, clad in pure white knight armor and a pure white closed helmet, singlehandedly dispersed an enemy legion with ease. The scene remained fresh in his memory to this day.
“The no-nonsense type, huh? Interesting.”
Leo Ray raised his eyebrows, looking towards Taylor and Red Devil in the front row. With these two Tier 5 powerhouses by his side, he naturally wouldn’t be too concerned about the White Knight’s strength.
Following Leo Ray’s gaze, Bert’s old face lit up when he saw the burly Taylor and slender Joshua. Surely there was no need to fear the enemy with two Tier 5 powerhouses on their side!
Noticing Bert’s emotional change, the other subordinates also showed invigorated expressions.

Seeing the rising morale in the hall, Leo Ray smiled faintly and proceeded to the next topic.Next, Leo Ray confirmed the dam construction matter, which had been fully completed.
Then, he confirmed the current situation with the subordinates from each territory, learning that every city had made all preparations for the war, including possible marching routes and city defenses.
Even the Undead Beast Squad summoned by Lina had all arrived, hidden in a concealed cave not far from the territory.
As for the Snow Wolf Clan, which was three kilometers east of the territory, they had temporarily moved to the domain according to the plan, including five fully armed Tier 2 Werewolf Warrior Squads and four Tier 3 Powerhouses like Clan Chief Finn Stanley.
“Very good, it seems that everything is ready.”
After confirming all matters, Leo Ray nodded with satisfaction and said to his subordinates, “As I just said, the opponent is indeed powerful, but we are not a group of Frost Sheep waiting to be slaughtered. Let’s see how capable these high and mighty guys are.”
“Yes, Lord! Your subordinate is willing to go through fire and water for you!”
The neat and uniform voices sounded as the subordinates at the lower positions all knelt on one knee, deeply bowing their heads to Leo Ray.
After that, Leo Ray did not sit idly in the territory but took most of his main subordinates to Cyan Town first.
Currently, the territory had not been discovered by the enemy, and Cyan Town was the enemy’s primary target, so naturally, it had to be defended at all costs, making the enemy realize that Cyan Town was a tough nut to crack.
Only in this way can more enemy forces be contained when the territory is discovered, thus reducing the pressure on the territory.
After all, overall, Cyan Town and the territory were in a mutually reinforcing position.
If the enemy plans to launch a full-scale attack on the territory, they will undoubtedly have to deploy a considerable part of their forces to defend Cyan Town, which has not fallen, to prevent us from launching an attack on their rear from Cyan Town.
Arriving at Cyan Town, where the city gates were closed tightly, and the towering city walls were lined with soldiers, Leo Ray joined Linda, Mason Banks, and Rhizoma Drynariae and began making the final preparations for defense.
Since Cyan Town itself had almost no professional healing powerhouses, there were only two Tier 1 Holy-Light Priest squads.
So, a few days ago, Leo Ray consciously hired a group of healing mercenaries from the surrounding areas at a high price, promising that they would only provide healing and not participate in the battle.
Among them, Master Murdoch, the number one healer in Cyan Town, whose strength reached Tier 2 Nine-Star, and others responded positively.
Especially Master Atlas Serrano, the number three healer in Cyan Town who was considered an “ally,” took the initiative and, with his decent reputation, recruited many healing mercenaries.
After obtaining the Tier 3 Magic Staff bestowed by Leo Ray in the beginning, this guy had already looked up to Leo Ray.
Finally, due to Leo Ray’s operations, the healing forces of Cyan Town expanded to the size of a middle team, including two Tier 3 Powerhouses, and with the 3000 Tier 1 healing magic potions prepared by Leo Ray, the injured soldiers could receive better treatment.
As for the over one thousand mercenaries originally in the city, they were already grateful to Leo Ray for his reward system and a series of city construction measures.
Rhizoma Drynariae said that whether it was the city’s defense construction or internal stability, most of these local mercenaries had made significant contributions, so they were all included in the reserve force for the city’s defense.
“A 6000-strong Defense Army, 5 Tier 2 Royal Guard Squads, my three Tier 2 Directly Affiliated Squads, 2 Tier 2 Princess’s Guard Squads, and 1 Trading Conference Escort Squad, plus over 1000 mercenaries, this is already close to the strength of a corps.”
Standing on the tall city walls of Cyan Town, covered with expensive anti-magic coatings, and in the bright sunshine, Leo Ray said with a faint smile, “The Great Prince’s vanguard corps is arriving soon, right? Let me see if you have the ability to capture this corner of Cyan Town.”
As Leo Ray thought this in his heart, dust was rising over the distant horizon outside the city, and a powerful army was already rolling in.
