The Zerg army rolled forward, leaving countless human soldiers slaughtered along the way.

The reconnaissance team and the scout squad also discovered that the Zerg army was advancing towards the Crescent Empire, and immediately reported it to Your Majesty Tadefin of the Crescent Empire.

"Your Majesty, the Zerg are menacingly approaching the borders of the Crescent Empire!" a guard reported. "Please make a decision, Your Majesty!"

"Hmph, they dare to invade the Crescent Empire, do they really think we are defenseless?!" Tadefin became furious. "Spread the word, gather the major legions, and be ready to attack the Zerg's main city at any time."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

The guard left the hall and went to deliver the orders.

"Hmph, Zerg, this time, I will make sure you never return!" Tadefin clenched his fist, his eyes gleaming coldly.

The Zerg army approached the border of the Crescent Empire, encountering no resistance along the way, like an unstoppable iron barrel.

Shortly after Sera and her group left the city, they discovered traces of the Zerg ahead.

"Do you dare to follow me deep into enemy territory?" Sera asked in a deep voice.

Angela, Elsa, and Alya nodded unanimously. They also understood that this time the Ruined Land Barbarians' target was the Crescent Empire, and they must personally eliminate these enemies, or else the Crescent Empire would be in great danger!

"Let's go!" Sera said, leading Angela and the others deep into the Zerg rear.

...

Upon hearing the news, Your Majesty Jin Yichuan of the White Stork Empire immediately sent a large number of troops to reinforce.

After all, when the White Stork Empire was in its most desperate moments, the Crescent Empire and the Sun-Moon Empire came to their aid. Now that the Crescent Empire is in trouble, Jin Yichuan will naturally not stand idly by.

"Commander of the Knight Order, Si Chudong, you will lead ten thousand cavalry to the Crescent Empire at the fastest speed!" Jin Yichuan said.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Si Chudong responded and immediately led the knights away.

Jin Yichuan sat on the throne, looking at the confidential letter in his hand, his expression growing more and more grave.

...

The Bimong tribe used rock formations condensed from elemental power to throw at the walls of the Crescent Empire.

"Boom! Boom boom! Boom boom..."

A series of explosions sounded on the city walls.

The physical strength of the Bimong was already formidable, and with the assistance of elemental power, many rocks pierced through the thick city walls and fell into the city, causing chaos.

"Suicide Ant troops, rush in and blow these humans to death!" Lusiti shouted.

Upon hearing the order, the Ant troops shouted, "For the Ruined Land continent, kill!" and then rushed into the city through the holes created by the rocks.

With their ability to self-destruct, these ants blasted a huge hole in the city wall.

The human soldiers in the city wanted to resist, but these suicide ants were not afraid of death at all. They fought and clashed with the human soldiers, eventually sacrificing themselves along with the human soldiers through self-destruction.

This self-destructive power is moderate, but enough to exchange one for one with human soldiers. If there are a few human soldiers nearby, they will definitely be injured by the aftermath and lose their combat capabilities.

"Quickly, stop them!"

Human soldiers rushed towards the ant-men to kill them, but unfortunately, there were too many ant-men, and their continuous self-destructive actions plunged the entire country into chaos.

Tadefin saw the heavy casualties of his carefully-trained elite army and felt distressed.

Wearing silver armor, Tadefin walked out from Your Majesty's Palace and shouted, "All officers, defend with all your might and do not allow the ant-men to take a step into the Crescent Empire!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Tadefin spread his steel wings and flew out, splitting open the head of a self-destructive ant-man with a shot, then tossing the ant-man's body out of the city.

"Boom! Boom!

The ant-men continuously self-destructed, causing massive casualties among the soldiers of the Crescent Empire.

The city was filled with the smell of gunpowder, blood, burnt odor, and a foul stench.

...

Yin Chuan took out a pocket watch from his pocket, carefully checked the time, and then put the pocket watch away.

"The Insect Clan has started a war with the Crescent Empire, it's time for us to set off," Yin Chuan said.

"Yes, sir!"

Yin Chuan led the remaining main force of the Ruined Land Alliance and left the Gate of Interactions, heading for the weakest White Stork Empire.

"Wait!" Yin Chuan saw a Bimong General leave a footprint on the ground and immediately stopped.

"What's wrong, Yin Chuan?" asked the old witch tribe man in the purple robe.

"Witch Elder, take a look!" Yin Chuan pointed to the sunken footprint left by the Bimong General next to him. "The Bimong Brotherhood has left footprints. In case the Blood Clan comes to the Gate of Interactions and discovers our true target, we may be ambushed and suffer total annihilation. You must know that the Blood Clan can fly, and their marching speed is much faster than mine. I would like to ask the Witch Elder to take a group of elite wizards to repair the sunken footprints left by the Bimong Brotherhood and our own footprints while we march."

The Bimong Commander next to him smiled apologetically and said, "We have caused you trouble."

Yin Chuan raised his hand and said, "This is for our shared ideal. There's no trouble or not. It's all for our shared ideal."

"I understand," the Witch Elder smiled and then led a group of elite wizards to erase the footprints left by the entire Alliance army.

...

Six hours later, Iris led the Demon Legion to the Gate of Interactions. There were human and insect corpses near the gate, with red and green blood mingled together, a horrifying sight.

"Reporting, Your Majesty, the distant human ballista positions were destroyed by rocks, and there are some human and insect corpses. Based on their forward movement, I speculate that the insects are heading towards the Crescent Empire. Should we go to support them?" A high-ranking demon named Aris reported to Iris.

"It is not necessary," Iris said. "The Crescent Empire has the Steel Angel Tadefin guarding it. It is difficult for the insects alone to conquer the Crescent Empire. Moreover, the Steel Angel Tadefin has previously led troops to assist the White Stork Empire, and his reputation is well-known. There should be other angels joining him."

"Your Majesty, what should we do next?" Alyss asked.

"Rest in place and wait for the arrival of Qizhou and Shizhi, then enter the Gate of Interaction!" Iris commanded.

"Yes!" Alyss replied.

Just then, the deceitful demon Alistar, ranked sixth in the sequence, and the false demon Beezelbub, ranked eighth, appeared in Iris's sight.

"Greetings, Your Majesty!" the two demons saluted Iris.

"No need for formalities!" Iris nodded slightly, casting a reproachful gaze at Beezelbub. "Where have you been all this time? Why did you take so long to appear?"

"Forgive me, Your Majesty. I have been co-managing a casino with Alistar recently, so I didn't return to the palace," Beezelbub said with lowered head.

"Who is Alistar?" Iris started asking Chaos about Alistar's information.

"Alistar is the deceitful demon ranked sixth in the sequence. He is skilled in disguise and can simulate the abilities of others through deceit, allowing him to remain hidden behind enemies for a long time," Chaos explained.

"Interesting ability," Iris said with a faint smile. "Alistar, is what Beezelbub said true?"

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Alistar said respectfully.

When Alistar caught a glimpse of Iris's face, her heart skipped a beat, but she quickly regained her composure and thought to herself, "The golden-red pupils, the silver hair, tied up in a high ponytail. Their Majesty's appearance is simply engraved in my heart. If they had a pair of fox ears and a fox tail, it would be irresistible!"

"Both of you, rest in place," Iris said and turned to leave.

"Yes!" Alistar and Beezelbub bowed.

Alistar occasionally stole glances at Iris's figure, her eyes shimmering.

In the past, Alistar would never have had any thoughts about Their Majesty, as she was not attracted to males. She was an experienced "yuri" practitioner and had a mature way of pursuing girls.

"I'm sorry, Yar. But how could I resist their Majesty in this life, with their female body and those captivating golden-red eyes?" Alistar muttered to herself.

"Hey~ Are you looking at Their Majesty?" Beezelbub noticed Alistar's expression and asked.

Alistar quickly shook her head. "No!"

"Oh~" Beezelbub lightly exclaimed and then sat down on a nearby sand dune.

Alistar continued to admire the graceful figure of Iris, pondering silently, "Should I be on top, or should Their Majesty be on top?"

With years of experience in "yuri" relationships, Alistar believed that she would be better off on top, as Their Majesty knew nothing about this aspect and it would be better for her to take control.

The more Alistar thought about it, the more feasible it seemed, and she ultimately decided to be on top.

Ten minutes later, Qizhou and Shizhi arrived at the Gate of Interaction with Jinghe. Qizhou placed Jinghe in his arms down and saluted Iris, saying, "Reporting to Your Majesty, I have arrived late. Please punish me, Your Majesty."

Iris waved her hand. "No need, I've only just arrived myself."

At this moment, Alistar walked up to Qizhou and Shizhi, glancing at Iris's charming appearance, and said, "Long time no see, Qizhou, Shizhi!"

"Long time no see, Alistar," Qizhou and Shizhi smiled upon seeing Alistar.

"The little girl is..." Ah Li looked at Jinghe with a scrutinizing gaze.

"Hello, sister Ah Li. My name is Jinghe. Jing as in scenery, He as in crop. I am the successor of the Flame Demon." Jinghe said sweetly.

"So you are the successor of the Flame Demon." Ah Li patted Jinghe's head and said, "Little one, how much of the Flame Demon's power have you mastered?"

"Half. I have only mastered Huangming's earthly fire, and I haven't started learning the celestial fire." Jinghe answered obediently.

"Not bad. As the successor of the Flame Demon, I approve of you." Ah Li praised.

"Enough chatter. It's time for us to enter the Interdimensional Gate and go to the Ruined Land continent." Iris said.

"Understood!" Everyone saluted and entered the Interdimensional Gate.

Once inside the Interdimensional Gate, countless Ruined Land soldiers rushed towards them. It was a sea of soldiers, numbering in the thousands.

Without hesitation, Iris released a powerful magical aura. Her body was covered in platinum flames, exuding a strong and domineering aura.

"Punishment!"

"Eternal Flame of Boundless Suffering!"

With a wave of her left hand, the platinum flames soared into the sky, heading towards the soldiers of Ruined Land, devouring them in flames.

"Boom~"

The sound of flames cracking filled the air as the Ruined Land soldiers turned into ashes, disappearing into thin air.

In the face of the scorching heat, both humans and objects would be burnt to ashes.

"Mother is so powerful!" Baixi exclaimed when she saw Iris exterminate a group of Ruined Land soldiers with a wave of her hand.

"Let's go!" Iris waved her hand and led everyone forward.

Along the way, they encountered Ruined Land soldiers who were no match for Iris. As long as she unleashed her magical flames, she could reduce these soldiers to ashes without leaving a trace.

The winged man squad stationed nearby heard the explosions and immediately rushed over to investigate, only to find a group of fierce and terrifying black-armored demons slaughtering soldiers from the Ruined Land alliance. Their combat power was extremely frightening.

"Who are you?" a winged man captain shouted.

"Kill this captain and all his subordinates, except for this captain." Iris said coldly without even looking at the other side.

"Understood!" The black-armored demons followed the order and launched an attack on the soldiers under the winged man general.

"Arrogant!" The winged man captain angrily yelled and led his troops to meet the attack.

For a while, the sound of fighting filled the air - the collision of metal weapons, the sound of armor rubbing against steel, continuously echoing, sending shivers down one's spine.

"Quick, run!" someone shouted, causing some winged man soldiers to panic and escape.

However, the black-armored demons were faster. In the blink of an eye, they killed the fleeing winged man soldiers.

The winged man captain was pinned to the ground by Baixi with one hand and couldn't move.

"The demons are coming. I will take your leader's head! Prepare his neck for me." Iris walked forward, squatted down, and looked down at the winged man captain, saying.

Upon finishing her words, Iris drew a black demonic sword and cut off the winged man squad leader's left and right hands.

"Ow~"

The winged man squad leader screamed in pain as blood gushed out of his wounds.

"Release him," Iris said to Baixi.

"Yes," Baixi nodded and let go, allowing the winged man squad leader to leave.

"Why did you cut off his hands, my lady? Wouldn't it be better to just kill him?" Baixi asked.

"For one, it's to spread fear of our demons, making it known that the Demon Legion is invincible. Secondly, while ensuring the enemy remains alive, I must cripple his combat abilities. If his arms weren't severed, there's a chance lives from Divinity and Demon's Continent could be lost at his hands," Iris stood up and spoke calmly.

"I understand, my lady," Baixi nodded.

"Keep moving forward!" Iris left after finishing her words.

The group of black-armored demons followed Iris, advancing into the depths of the Ruined Land.
