With the death of the highest commander of the legion, the entire legion inevitably fell into chaos.
This gave Arcade ample time to retreat.
After Little White tried her best to regroup the troops and reorganize the entire eighth army, Arcade and his blood slaves were nowhere to be seen...
The impact of this battle was not significant, merely reminiscent of the sieges and bloody massacres that Arcade had carried out in the past.
After more than two months of pursuit, such events had occurred countless times; for the demonic clan, it was hardly a big deal.
The death of the eighth army's legion commander was also nothing new to the demonic clan—two limit breaker level demonic creatures had died as well, so losing a legion commander was hardly concerning.
After division commander Little White reported the situation in Senegal in detail, within a day, the latest appointment from the military headquarters was issued.
Little White, formerly the division commander of the ninth division of the eighth army, was appointed as the new legion commander of the eighth army. Additionally, a ceremony would be held at the central command.
When Little White arrived at the former New Hope Gathering Place, the central command of the demonic clan's African war zone, she was greeted by the smiling Commander of the Skeleton Legion.
"Sir!"
Little White waved away her personal guards and hurriedly approached the tall and imposing bone demon commander.
The commander looked at Little White, nodding in satisfaction, and while leading her deeper into the command center, he said appreciatively, "Good child, you performed well."
"All thanks to your recognition, sir."
Flattery is a useful tactic in any regime or political arena.
The commander smiled but did not reply, his beaming expression enough to show his favorable attitude towards Little White.
"Is the army organized?"
"There's no problem now. By the way, sir, I hope to promote Er Dan to be the commander of the ninth division."
"That's up to you. As a new official, you should support a couple of trusted aides. How about this, I'll give you three division commander positions."
"Thank you, sir."
In just a few exchanges, three division commander positions were discussed, impacting nearly a million troops!
The influence of high-level officials often far exceeds the imagination and expectations of the lower ranks.
Not wanting to dwell on this matter, the commander brought up another topic.
"By the way, the reason I called you here is officially to attend the appointment ceremony at the central command, but in reality, it's to conduct a comprehensive assessment for you to ensure your safety and reliability."
The so-called assessment was merely a means for the demonic clan to deal with charm and transformation-type skills. Positions with real power like legion commander naturally need to ensure the safety of personnel.
Little White had some anticipation regarding this matter, but skills like soul creation were not something that could be easily tested, especially since Little White, as a perfect resurrection creation of the third type, had no flaws in her existence!
Thus, Little White simply nodded lightly, "It's only right."
Seeing the calm expression on Little White's face, the commander's satisfaction grew. After pondering for a moment, he finally revealed his true purpose for coming to pick her up.
"Due to the recent deaths of Augustus and Pelagen, there are now two fewer members in the highest council. This time, I plan to elevate you to a position. Tomorrow, during the highest council meeting, you'll be by my side to broaden your horizons and meet the big shots in our African war zone."
Upon hearing this, a grateful smile appeared on Little White's face as she lowered her head respectfully, saying to the commander, "Thank you for the elevation, sir!"
"Ah, we're all on the same side, no need for formalities. But you must pay attention; there are eight candidates for this position, all top figures who were originally legion commanders from various legions. If you want to rise, you'll need to put in your own effort."
