Chapter 164 Determination
After confirming that they were heading to Donnar, Roland and Hela hurried eastward while silently making various preparations.

As the current situation in Donnar was not stable, Roland bought a large amount of basic food and supplies in Sinnar and stuffed them all into his and Hela's space bracelets, out of safety and some vague thoughts in his heart.

The current situation in Donnar is still unstable, although it is nominally a war between the United Forces and the Green Tide.

But, in fact, the internal situation of both the United Army and the Green Tide is quite chaotic.

On the United Army side, although the legendary Eleanor is nominally the supreme leader of the United Army, the internal composition of the United Army is too complicated.

There were exiled soldiers and knights who had fled after the fall of other kingdoms, militias formed by local towns to fight the Green Tide, local bandits who had been recruited, and adventurers and mercenaries from Donnar and the North.

Although humans make up the majority of the coalition army, the proportion of other races is also not small, including dwarves, halflings, gnomes, and even orcs.

There are also differences within the alien races. Take the dwarves for example. There are dwarf clans that were driven out of the Dragon Spine Mountains, and there are local dwarves living in Donnar. There are considerable conflicts between them.

In addition to countless complex contradictions, in order to fight against the Green Tide, the United Army is constantly absorbing all forces, which also makes the composition of the United Army more and more complicated.

And the most fatal point is that Eleanor, the leader of the United Army, has never had the time and energy to solve these problems.

This has resulted in the United Army being a union in name only, with the internal forces divided into dozens of different forces and factions. They divide the territories, and under the death pressure of the Green Tide, they can barely maintain mutual assistance.

As for the Green Tide, under Kan'ozu's deliberate neglect and breeding, the Green Tide was divided into warlord territories. Except for the outermost greenskin warlords who would actively attack the United Army in order to expand their territory, the inner greenskin warlords basically engaged in civil wars, attacking and annexing each other.

Unless Kan Ozu personally orders, these greenskin warlords inside will not send a single soldier to the front lines of the Green Tide and the United Army.

It is also because of this that the United Army was able to fight back and forth with the Green Tide. If all the greenskin warlords had come forward, the United Army would have been killed long ago without having to struggle.

In the hotel room, Roland placed a map of Donnar on the table. Next to the table was a pile of various intelligence.

This is the latest revised power distribution map of the Adventurer's Association, on which the Adventurer's Association roughly drew the area controlled by the Allied Forces.

Roland took out a pen and, based on the various recruitment information he had obtained from the Adventurer's Association, drew a rough map of the distribution of the various forces within the coalition army.

Hela sat aside, flipping through and organizing the information from the Adventurer's Association, while quietly reminding Roland and correcting some deviations on the map.

After mapping out all the forces, big and small, Roland put down his pen and stared at the map silently, thinking about which force would be best to go to.

After thinking for a while, Roland was still a little hesitant.

Although he had decided to go to Donnar, he had not yet made up his mind.

If Roland wanted to help the coalition army defeat the Green Tide and save Donnar from future tragedy, he should go to where Eleanor was, which was the core area of ​​the coalition army.

However, if Roland wanted to take advantage of the chaos in Donnar to seize power and create a new country according to his own will, then Roland should not go to the core area, but to the peripheral areas where the coalition forces are weakest.

Looking at the hesitant Roland, Hela tugged at the corner of his clothes.

Looking at Hela's concerned eyes, Roland pursed his lips and asked.

"Hela, if there is something you want to do but it is difficult or almost impossible to achieve, will you do it?" Hela was a little surprised when she heard Roland's words.

This was the first time she saw Roland being hesitant and unconfident.

She thought for a while, then spoke.

"You once told me: If you don't try, you will never succeed. Even if you try and fail, it's better than doing nothing."

After hearing what Hela said, Roland looked at the map and said with some emotion.

"Yeah, if you don't try, how do you know it won't work?"

Roland had already made up his mind.

Go to the edge of East Nar, then form a team to fight against the green tide and compete for the leadership of the edge area.

Roland didn't think about things that were too far away. He set a small goal first, to form a new force, kill Kan'ozu, pacify Donnar, build a new country from scratch, and shape it into what he wanted.

Roland looked up at Hela and said in a serious tone.

"Next, I will join the struggle of Donnar. Either I win and take over the entire Donnar, or I fail and die in the wilderness. Are you sure you want to follow me?"

Hela smiled at Roland who had made a decision and said.

"Whatever your decision is, I will follow you."

Roland nodded, then pointed his finger at the northwest area of ​​Donnar and said.

"Well, let's start from here."

After clarifying the direction and goal, Roland and Hela also quickened their journey.

As they hurried on their journey, they also began to plan ahead.

Although Roland came to seize power, he did not intend to ignore the United Army and sneak in directly. Instead, he was prepared to accept the invitation of the internal forces of the United Army and blend in according to the rules.

After all, Roland and Hela both had proof of being fourth-level spellcasters. As rare talents, the treatment given to them by the Allied Forces would naturally not be bad.

After sending a message through the Adventurer's Association, expressing their willingness to join the team against the Green Tide and proposing conditions, the forces occupying that area responded to Roland in less than three days, almost completely agreeing to Roland's requirements and even taking the initiative to relax the restrictions.

Roland did not hide his ambition at all. His request was very simple. Roland did not want salary or soldiers. He just wanted to be allowed to recruit soldiers and give him a recruitment quota of 3,000 people. If Roland could not afford the soldiers' salary, he could pay for it himself.

As for Roland's requests, the other side agreed to most of them. Not only did they allow Roland to recruit soldiers, they were also willing to grant him noble titles in advance and give him several towns to govern. As for the soldiers' salaries, they could only provide one thousand places, and the rest was up to Roland to figure out on his own.

As compensation, they completely lifted the restrictions on Roland's conscription, allowing him to recruit as many soldiers as he wanted as long as he could afford it.
