"Sigh... why did these idiots attack the Death Unit?"

Roan did what he could to not catch that much attention. However, with the ranking system in place, it wasn't that effective. Of course, in the long run, it still made a big difference. It was only after more than seven months that the Death Unit began to catch everyone's attention. However, once they did, the units of Cassen Country also wanted to test them out.

They also had their own reward system. As one could expect, defeating top-ranked units from Jialin gave a lot more rewards than common units. Naturally, more and more wanted to challenge that unit since the reward was high.

However, six groups had already got themselves killed because of their greediness. It only contributed to making the Death Unit even more famous. This time, the report said that the 24th unit of Jialin was the one who conquered the area, but this commander knew that it was because of the Death Unit that it happened.

Of course, there were also a few other dazzling groups on Jialin's side, so all the attention wasn't on Roan's Unit alone. Every sect and even the Royal Family had at least one elite group with an experienced commander. This was also a moment in time where unknown cultivators began to make themselves known. It was not because they were cultivation geniuses, but because they had a keen eye for strategy. 

However, what bothered this Cassen commander the most wasn't the elite units of Jialin.

"Reporting! Commander Gofen, Jialin units appeared in the area where the 56th unit was defending. We didn't have enough time to mount a counterattack before they secured their positions."

Gofen let out a sigh once more after hearing that.

Fast! It was just too fast! That's definitely the strongest war weapon in existence for you, communication! Jialin had an overwhelming advantage in communication speed compared to them. Even their smallest units far in the distance received the reports of any new event tens of times faster than they could.

"Leave it. The Death Unit was probably sent there to give support. If their commander takes over the reins of the defense, we will need to pay too high of a price to reclaim that place."

The subordinate bitterly smiled. Cassen Country suffered one defeat after the other because of Jialin's communications system. They were really helpless in this regard.

"Can't we ask for a few of our Nascent Soul Realm cultivators to lead the units? They can help get rid of the commanders before they can receive support. The battle would end in a flash."

Gofen shook his head as he replied.

"Do you think Jialin hasn't thought about the same thing? They have Soul Transformation Realm cultivators on the front lines with their Spiritual Senses spread. If we really send Nascent Soul Realm cultivators to intervene, they will send their own. At that moment, the battle will quickly scale up."

Gofen's subordinate couldn't help but feel dejected. Their country was losing its territory way too fast.

"Is there nothing we can do about it?"

Gofen nodded.

"There is. If everything goes as planned, Jialin's fast advance should stop really soon."

The guy was taken aback.

"This... how?"

Gofen smiled before saying.

"We are not the only country unwilling to see our territories being taken away. Soon, we will receive some reinforcements to help deal with the situation. At the very least, we will finally arrive at an equilibrium."

However, Gofen's subordinate had a puzzled expression.

"As far as I know, the other countries wouldn't intervene as long as Jialin doesn't really wish to conquer our entire country. Also, Jialin is keeping an eye on the countries on its borders. There was even an attempt against them after they started the assault against us. Still, Jialin's enemies were stopped thanks to their new experts."

He wasn't wrong. Both Jialin and the surrounding countries thought about the same thing. Jialin was indeed conquering their territory quickly, but they had already announced that they only wanted enough territory to expand their borders, not engulf the entire country. The Jialin Royal Family was even bold enough to demand the extra land to prevent unnecessary conflict. Obviously, Cassen rejected and went to war. He was right to find it strange that some other country wanted to intervene.

"Don't worry. The reason we will receive reinforcements is thanks to Cassen's Royal Family. From what I know, it seems like Cassen's King thinks very highly of this territory. He is paying a hefty sum to have the Tolak and Rorel countries help us."

Tolak and Rorel countries didn't have borders touching Jialin. That being said, they were out of Jialin's reach at the moment.

"No country likes to see the others growing strong; that's the natural rule of the world. With the payment from Cassen's King and the fact that Tolak and Rorel are not at war with anyone, we will be able to get this extra force to help us. Of course, they won't send all their experts. Instead, it will mostly be Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, and Core and Soul Fusion Realm cultivators. There will be a few Nascent Soul Realm cultivators in tow, but they are only there to oversee the war."

Gofen's subordinate couldn't help but ask.

"Still, why do I feel like this is not the only reason they are coming to help us? If making payments was enough to make other countries' powers move, many countries would have used this method before to defend themselves. However, all countries are selfish. They would rather keep their forces alive."

Gofen agreed.

"That's correct. However, I don't know the details of their negotiation. In any case, it doesn't matter to us. The important part is that we are getting the reinforcements we need to hold Jialin's forces back. Whatever the reason is, it's beneficial to both Cassen and those two helpers. That's all we need to know."

Back at Death Unit, Kentucky's eyes suddenly lit up as he looked in a particular direction. If one looked closely, they would even be able to see him drooling.
