Chapter 856: Fightback
17 days ago--- During the Battle of Safe City
"Heyaa!! Die you scum--" As one of the True Beginning Emperors shouted, an instant space portal opened behind him and he was pulled into it, then it quickly closed.
His opponent was surprised by what had just happened, but he shouted and chose another opponent for himself...
When that Martial Emperor felt a Shadow Sword pulling him, he was happy and thought that he would be taken away to be treated and rested, but, *bzzzz* "Eh... What's going on here?"
The next moment, that Emperor found himself standing in front of a huge spaceship in a desert~
"Wait a little longer and you'll find out." The Shadow Sword entered the instant space portal again.
These events were happening everywhere during the Battle of Safe City, the Shadow Swords opened space portals in all the battlefields until 100 Martial Emperors were randomly pulled out!
Then 100 Martial Emperors arrived, wondering among themselves what happened or asking the Shadow Swords, but they didn't get any answers, they were just ordered to sit in their places and wait... and they did so with annoyance, but without worry.
They knew very well how harsh the soul oath that the Shadow Swords took upon themselves was, and they knew that whatever was happening now was definitely His Excellency's order since even generals couldn't give such big orders to the Shadow Swords.
After a while, the first Demon Emperor arrived, then the second and third until the number reached a hundred headed by Morin, one of the three leaders of the Demon Race, which made the situation even stranger for everyone.
In the end, Old Man Gu also arrived with a number of Rune Masters from the Research and Development Team, scratching his head like the rest, not knowing what was going on...
Current time--- Inside the warship---
"Sir, we have approached the abyss separating the north and south as you ordered." One of the ship's drivers spoke like a robot, his eyes downcast, he did not seem to be conscious.
As they had been on the way for the past two weeks or so, Old Man Gu asked the ship's pilots many questions and learned some general information, and as expected of a planet that has spent hundreds of years in war, it wouldn't be easy to get involved there...
If he landed in the Great Serpent territory directly then he wouldn't have accomplished anything, he might have just stayed in Planet Nihari and fought them there. And if he landed in the local's lands they might think they are the Great Serpent Empire's associates and start a direct battle against them!
So he decided to land at the border between the two regions to observe the situation first. "Everyone get ready, we will enter hostile territory at any moment!" Old Man Gu let out a loud shout that resounded throughout the ship
Upon hearing the words, the 200 Martial Emperors inside the ship stood up, their faces showing extreme worry, some of them still had injuries from the Safe City battle...
When His Excellency invaded Greenland, he took hundreds of thousands of soldiers with him, and in the invasion of the Farm, he sent the massive Demon army, but here in a new world filled with the Great Serpent Empire's soldiers and many powerful locals, they were the only ones sent?!
Old Gu took a few slow breaths to calm himself down, he knew that His Excellency had chosen him out of everyone to establish good relations with the locals, he must not fail in his mission no matter what...
"Hmm? What's going on over there?" Old Gu narrowed his eyes slightly and pointed in a certain direction.
In the direction he pointed, there were traces of a large battle.
"That seems dangerous..." Morin spoke in a rough voice, landing right next to a battle didn't seem like a good idea.
"...We have to take the initiative. In that spot, we will find our enemies and we will definitely find the locals, isn't that why we are here?" Old Gu patted the ship pilot's head, "Take us
there."
