Chapter 357: 355 Logistics Support_1
Catalan slightly bent his body and leaned forward, his sword slashing a green arc. The sword’s energy collided directly with the incoming ground spike.
“Swish!”
Like cutting through tofu, Catalan’s sword energy shattered the incoming ground spike and continued towards the giant beetle without stopping.
Given the size and agility of the giant beetle, it was impossible to dodge. The beetle was sliced in half the moment it saw the sword energy.
The cut was smooth and even, although the giant beetle didn’t die immediately, it clearly had no fighting strength left.
After doing all this, Catalan arrogantly stood still, striking an impressive pose.
Obviously, Mentor had no time to appreciate it, so he grabbed Catalan’s arm and tried to escape.
With giant beetles and burrowing worms everywhere, as well as a complex environment, staying here for an extended period would be unwise.
Fortunately, Mentor had something up his sleeve. In his hurry, he pulled out a tattered scroll from his pocket and bit it open with his teeth.
Then, a rock magic puppet, about five or six meters tall, appeared beside him.
He summoned the puppet not as a bodyguard, but for a more specific purpose.
Without waiting for Catalan’s approval, Mentor threw him into one of the puppet’s large hands.
As for himself, he quickly climbed onto the other large hand of the puppet.
The puppet then threw them upwards, one after the other.
The puppet’s strength was immense, not only allowing them to escape the deep pit successfully but also throwing them high into the air.
If they were to fall like this, they would lose limbs even if they didn’t die.
Fortunately, Catalan was not only skilled in martial arts but also in magic.
After casting a Featherfall Skill on himself, he didn’t forget to apply one to his friend Mentor as well.
As he descended slowly through the air, Catalan looked down at the chaotic battle and couldn’t help but feel conflicted. At first glance, it seemed that the Dawn Legion did not have an advantage in a head-on battle.
This was still under the scorching sun when the troublesome spiritual undead creatures were unable to appear.
It was only now that Catalan understood that when he left the Dawn Forest, the current Elf King repeatedly warned him not to underestimate the undead.
Looking back at the history of the whole continent, it was a tale of suffering and disaster.
Just as the humanoid creatures of the continent had finally been freed from the tyranny of dragons and giants, they faced invasions of demons and the ravages of undead.
Even now, the Land of Red Flames is still full of demons, and the Death Swamp is filled with undead creatures.
In short, what was happening in the Dragon Bone Wasteland was nothing compared to the past of this continent.
Catalan landed slowly on the ground, and soon a large group of elite elf warriors surrounded him.
Under their protection, Catalan and Mentor began to retreat slowly and safely.

The battle continued until late at night, and with the spirit undead joining the fight, the situation became even more difficult for the Dawn Legion.
In order to avoid unnecessary casualties, and at Mentor’s urging, Catalan issued the command to retreat.
After suffering some losses, the Dawn Legion safely withdrew to a location far from Purgatory City.
Because they had to leave in a hurry, most of the soldiers could only sit on the ground to rest.
They had lost their settlements and, in addition to losing tents that could shelter them from wind and rain, they also lost a large amount of supplies and food.
With only the food they carried themselves, they could last at most for two more days.
Deeply aware of the seriousness of the situation, Catalan once again sought out Angelina, but this time his attitude changed drastically.
Upon seeing Angelina enter the tent, Catalan immediately stood up to greet her personally.
Wearing a smile, he asked softly, “Your Majesty, Queen of Vide, how about the supply lines…?” novelbuddy.cσ๓
Angelina knew clearly what Catalan was thinking.
At this moment, she looked troubled and said, “The last time a supply unit arrived at Dragon Bone Wasteland was two days ago. According to the usual schedule, the next supply unit should arrive in five days…”
Every seven days, a logistics unit would deliver food and various supplies across Vide’s territory to the Dragon Bone Wasteland.
Under normal circumstances, this speed was already fast, and it was clear that Angelina had put much effort into it.
However, with the army now about to run out of food in two days, should the Dawn Legion fight on empty stomachs or withdraw from the Dragon Bone Wasteland?
Neither of these outcomes was easily acceptable to Catalan.
So, he asked Angelina sternly, “Can’t the speed be increased…?”
Hearing Catalan’s plea, Angelina frowned, looking distressed.
Just as Catalan was about to despair, she finally spoke, “As you know, the supplies prepared by the logistics unit are obtained from Felton, then they have to cross Vide’s territory before they reach Dragon Bone Wasteland.
This round trip naturally takes more time.
If it’s really that urgent, you can save a lot of time by getting supplies directly from a town close to the Dragon Bone Wasteland in Vide.”
Hearing this, Catalan quickly asked, “Then how soon can the new supplies arrive?”
Angelina thought for a moment, then said, “Three days… No! At the earliest, they can arrive in two and a half days!
We have a communication crystal here that can contact Vide at any time. The town closest to Dragon Bone Wasteland in Vide is just within the communication crystal’s range.
If we can get the town to send supplies directly, I believe it will take just two and a half days to get to us.”
With that said, amidst Catalan’s excitement, Angelina added, “Of course, a small border town has limited resources.
Given the current situation of the Dawn Legion, even if the supplies arrive successfully, it would only last for about two more days.”
“That’s enough, that’s enough!”
Catalan clapped his hands, “Can’t you contact other towns in Vide’s territory through them? Let’s extend the supplies for two more days, giving us enough time to wait for the other supplies!”
