Chapter 681: Orcs Tribe, A Noble Lady Who Came Knocking

Before many guild members rushed here, Ji Chen had already boarded the alchemical airship heading to the Elven capital.
This alchemical airship had a huge elliptical envelope, with five pairs of propellers on each side of the envelope serving as power, and a gondola below containing very advanced facilities.
On both sides of the gondola, there were also a dozen alchemical cannons, along with a ship escort team, more than enough to deal with flying creatures and birds in the wilderness.
Miligas led them all the way to the cabin, personally opening the door. The room was spacious, luxuriously decorated, not inferior to the opulent mansions on the ground.
“Lord Ji Chen, this is your room.” Miligas nodded. “Sir Lainekel’s room is next door.”
“Thank you for your arrangements.”
Apart from Ji Chen, Patheia, and Lainekel, everyone else on the ship was wealthy elves. There were only so many rooms on the airship, and taking up three at once was not an easy task.
Miligas smiled and said, “This is a small matter, and besides, this is not a leisure trip. We are on an important mission.”
“Lainekel, please try to stay in your room and avoid exposure.”
Lainekel nodded, understanding that appearing in his current state could cause panic, as he had experienced it before.
“The airship will ascend soon and will take about three days to reach the capital. Food will be delivered to your door by servants,” Miligas said, then pointed to the corridor next to them. “My room is the first one over there. Feel free to find me if you need anything.”
Ji Chen nodded and watched as Miligas disappeared into the corridor, then turned to Lainekel.
“For these three days, let’s try not to leave our rooms. Caution is our top priority.”
Lainekel nodded in agreement.
Ji Chen returned to his room, closed the door, and sat down on the soft sofa. He felt a bit impatient.
If it weren’t for Miligas mentioning the need to take the airship to enter the Elven capital, he would have preferred to fly there directly on a Sea Crystal Wyrm, rather than slowly floating in this airship.
“Hopefully, everything goes smoothly,” Ji Chen could only mutter to himself.
With a mechanical roar, the airship left the airfield and slowly ascended into the sky.
Propelled by the high-speed rotating propellers, it flew forward steadily.
The room prepared for him by Miligas was located near the edge of the gondola, with a large area of special glass windows that allowed him to see the outside scenery. Clouds were parallel to the airship, and the city had become distant. Continuous mountain ranges and forests passed beneath his feet.
Having seen the monotonous ocean views countless times, Ji Chen was actually quite interested in this change of scenery.
One day passed, and Ji Chen and Lainekel stayed in their rooms without leaving. There were no unexpected incidents along the way, and the journey was calm, which allowed Ji Chen to relax a bit.
During this free time, he came to Lainekel’s room and asked about demons.
As the saying goes, knowing the enemy is the key to victory, and his knowledge of demons was limited to what he had learned in the Seven Stars instance. Besides that, he didn’t know much more than an ordinary player.
Under the description of the former human strongman who had “served” under the Dreadlord Balzarna for tens of thousands of years as an executioner, Ji Chen gradually formed a preliminary and comprehensive impression of demons.
Demons were just as they had shown in the instance: evil, chaotic, disorderly, cunning… all negative words could be used to describe them.
The organizational and social structure of demons was similar to that of a kingdom with a lord system, and the Dreadlord Balzarna was the “Lord,” with hundreds of demon lords under his command.
These demon lords were like lords of human kingdoms, with varying degrees of strength. The strongest among them reached the legendary tier, leading armies of tens of thousands, while the weaker ones were at the excellent tier, with armies of thousands.
But under Balzarna’s call, they each led their armies in response to the plan to invade the main world once again, a plan that demons had been preparing for thousands of years.
In addition to the Dreadlord, the other four Demon Lords also responded to the call and, together with Balzarna, launched attacks in five different directions.
“Other four Demon Lords?”
Lainekel nodded and said, “Besides the Dreadlord, the other four Demon Lords are the Greed Lord, the Void Lord, the Decay Lord, and the Undead Lord.
The Void Lord has the largest number of Void demons and is capable of conducting long-distance surprise attacks. His personal strength is also the most formidable among the Demon Lords.
The Greed Lord may have the fewest troops in terms of quantity, but individual demons under his command excel in strength. The Decay Lord is skilled in polluting the environment, creating conditions suitable for demons to survive and fight.”
The Undead Lord has the largest number of troops, with countless undead and undead legions under his command. He is also the most adept at legion-level warfare among the Demon Lords.
As for the Dreadlord Balzarna, he has a balanced set of abilities and a high overall level, in other words, he is the most difficult Demon Lord to deal with. Balzarna is also the most cunning of the Demon Lords, and his ruthlessness far exceeds imagination.”
Ji Chen nodded in agreement. He realized that if he hadn’t possessed the Void Ring, he would have been buried along with the collapsing Mystic Realm.
Seeing how they were unable to do anything and had to start destroying the Mystic Realm, which took only half an hour, it was clear how decisive and ruthless Balzarna was..
