This is already the sixth day since the army entered Arden Forest. Due to the rugged terrain of the forest, the Right Army had only covered about one hundred kilometers, with approximately one hundred and ten kilometers remaining to their destination.
The army continued to advance through the forest, and as they ventured further in, the forest's lively green gradually transformed into a twisted scene. Many tree trunks and branches turned grey and brown, under the influence of Chaos Energy. The frantically growing trees kept spreading, with their tangled roots even covering the ground, and curious lumps growing on these roots.
For six days, the Beastmen continually harassed the army. Laine and Gabriel led the peasants and knights in repelling several War Gang attacks successively.
Ranger Knight Hex approached from behind and whispered to Laine: "The soldiers are maintaining their morale well, my Baron. We haven't been affected by the Beastmen's repeated harassment."
