Bab 364: Gnoll stronghold

The Arctic Tigerfolk kingdom, Ice Palace.

Ruby sat on the throne with a worried look on her face, flanked by Maulclaw and Shadowfang.

Neither of them looked well. Maulclaw's worry was mixed with a hint of hesitation, while Shadowfang's was more of anger.

"Queen, we have found out that those Gnolls have set up strongholds on the border of our territory. They are obviously trying to force our submission by force!"

Maulclaw knew that there was really no way to delay any longer. The Beastman Empire's patience had reached its limit.

This time, they were probably determined to win.

"Queen, I think since war is inevitable, we might as well take the initiative and catch those mongrels off guard!" Shadowfang said indignantly.

In the past, his radical demands would have been opposed by Maulclaw, but this time, the latter did not say a word.

Because now it was a matter of no choice. Perhaps resistance would be the only option.
