Chapter 994: Chapter 598 Crown Princess

The Conqueror’s Path had ceased to be a simple migration route; it was also the road of testament for the Goddess of Strategy. She would never allow anything to go wrong. Her followers in Felen naturally emerged in droves — bound by the divine rules of Ascension to Godhood, she absolutely could not intervene personally. Matters of the followers had to be resolved by the followers themselves. If the Ascendant stepped in, it would leave imperfections upon their own divine aura. Moreover, igniting the Divine Fire and raising the God Kingdom was enough to keep her busy, leaving her no spare energy to attend to the affairs below.

The Purple Dragon Knights on the Wasteland Path showed a very cordial and friendly attitude toward the Conqueror Army, not only because they had received orders from above, but also because Yalusai, the Crown Princess and the brightest jewel of the Komeer Kingdom, was among them.

Someone as cunning and shrewd as King Yasan would never act with a single purpose, and especially at such a time, sending Yalusai to the Conqueror Army was certainly not just for the simple reason of following Katherine to learn. It was also to mediate between the Komeer Kingdom and the Conqueror Army. Particularly after entering the Goblin Margins, they could overtly and properly monitor every move of the Conqueror Army, meanwhile ensuring no conflicts would arise. Even if Katherine later returned to the Fortress of Strategy, they would likely find an excuse to stay. Now, even this had been spared.

"General, please look, this is our Komeer’s West Gate High Corner Fort," Yalusai gestured with her riding crop toward the majestic building not far away, her beautiful face aglow with pride — an emotion known as pride indeed.

She had every reason to be proud. Named a fort but in actuality a city, a veritable mountain city, established atop the peak of the Stormhorn Mountains.

Even here at the mountain range’s lowest point, the altitude was above a thousand meters, but Gaven and the others didn’t climb directly to the summit. They merely reached a third of the way up the mountainside, where there was a canyon spread over more than ten square kilometers.

Half of this plaza was natural, and the other half was carved out by humans. The place was bustling with noise, gathering a multitude of caravans, all merchants waiting to pass through the tunnel that pierced the Stormhorn Mountains.

Yes, traversing through the heart of the Stormhorn Mountains was not a rough mountain path, but a ten-kilometer-long underground tunnel, perfectly avoiding the most dangerous and impassable regions.

It was also the most profitable trade route here. Merchants entering and leaving had to pay a toll, and while the price was steep, they still felt it lucrative. If they were to take the mountain path under similar circumstances, it would require tens of times more manpower and resources, and the safety factor would be significantly increased.

Originally the Obysque Royal Family had mobilized countless resources for the Komeer Kingdom to burrow this tunnel, which was definitely one of the wisest decisions in their lifetime, benefitting generations to come.

"Seeing is believing, no wonder High Corner Fort is acclaimed as Komeer’s impregnable fortress, which can only be breached from the inside and never from the outside. It turns out that in its construction, there is such unique ingenuity. If I am not mistaken, this fortification was likely the work of a Dwarf master, no, also of a human master of design at the peak of their craft, a collaborative design by two masters," Gaven did not hold back his words of admiration.

Even having seen the astonishing size and unique design of the mountain city of the Dwarf Statue City, he was still involuntarily impressed by High Corner Fort.

If the Dwarf Statue City was the pinnacle of Dwarven construction, then High Corner Fort was the peak collaborative effort between Dwarves and Humans.

It perfectly fused the Dwarf mountain city with the human castle.

Everything above the mountain tunnel was part of High Corner Fort; the area had been thoroughly excavated into terraces.

Yet no one dared to regard them as mere terraces, as numerous tower forts stood interspersed among them, each fortified with at least one giant catapult and several ballistas, surrounded by farmland bearing abundant ripe grain waiting for harvest.

There were countless terraces like these, spanning up to ten layers, stretching all the way to the mountain peak, where a grand human castle sat enthroned, possessing even more various fortifications. However, the most eye-catching feature was the super-giant catapults built on the surrounding mountain peaks.

The size of these catapults had reached an unfathomable scale; even from several kilometers away, one could plainly see them. How massive must they be up close?

"Sir, you only guessed half right. Not only was it designed and constructed by a Dwarf master, but it was also the castle of the Silver Clan from the Stormhorn ranges. When my ancestors decided to open up this mountain range, they joined our ranks. Their Clan Leader, Dorn Silvermane, was the greatest master builder, who later applied and further enhanced human design concepts here," Yalusai spoke as if she knew the history of High Corner Fort like the back of her hand; this was a mandatory course for the descendants of the Royal Family. Yalusai, who previously detested these dry and dull lessons, deemed them useless and could only remember them because Sister Wang’s whip was sturdy enough, and she truly struck with it.

Rather than saying she remembered the lessons herself, it was more accurate that the Eldest Princess had whipped the information into her brain.

Now she finally understood Sister Wang’s earnest intentions. Being able to speak so effortlessly was perfect for satisfying a sense of superiority; this was, after all, the monumental legacy created by her Obisceal Family over a thousand years. As she spoke of it, she naturally shared in the glory.
