Chapter 408 Judgment Day [Part 5]
"This... just how—" the Grand Marshal of the Central Government, Lawrence, looked at the monitors in disbelief as he watched tens of thousands of monsters under the Wolf King's army die at a rapid rate.
At first, it wasn't noticeable due to how numerous they were. But soon, the Flying Drones, which were closely monitoring the battlefield and were following these monsters from the sky, noticed that the monsters were decreasing at a rapid rate.
Of course, the Alpha Team, who were responsible for sniping them from the sky, played a role in diminishing the low-ranking monsters.
However, even they couldn't achieve what was happening right before their eyes.
Since the Military Drones were flying at the rear of the Monster Army, they couldn't see Tiona's team decimating the monsters from the front.
Although they were Rank 1 Monsters, the number of abilities in their arsenal was fearsome. Their Petrification Breath turned the monsters at the front into stone statues, making them a hurdle that caused the monster stampede to trample against each other.
Those who were running at the front weren't able to stop on time. The monsters at the back would collide with them, and the cycle would repeat, causing countless loss of lives among their ranks as the bigger and stronger monsters stomped over their bodies.
The worst part was that when someone from Tiona's army was killed, they would explode into a poisonous blood mist that would spread in the surroundings, latching onto the monster army and killing the weaker monsters among their ranks. Those who were lucky to survive would manage to run a bit more before once again facing the same thing all over again, stacking the effect of the poison.
Since they were running, the blood of the monsters was pumping very quickly inside their bodies. This allowed Tiona's poison to travel faster and attack them from the inside.
Those who reached their limit would later collapse or slow down considerably, allowing the Alpha Team, who were attacking them from the sky, to finish them off quickly. Gét latest novel chapters on nov(e)lbj/n(.)c/om
Renz, who was also observing the monitors with a critical gaze, could tell that something was happening that he wasn't aware of.
However, he soon noticed something that wasn't obvious at first but became more apparent as time went on.
'The Alpha Team is herding the monsters to run in a certain direction,' Renz thought. 'If my guess is right, this has something to do with the monster rebels that Zion previously mentioned. Maybe they are thinning the enemies' ranks from the front.'
Since the Military Drone couldn't fly faster than the monsters could run, Renz and those who had reached the same conclusion couldn't confirm their guesses.
The strategist's gaze then landed on the teenage boy, who would tap on the projection on the table to guide the Army and occasionally on his communicator to give out secret orders that others could neither notice nor understand.
Perhaps noticing his gaze, Thirteen smiled faintly and asked Renz a question. However, before asking that question, he "accidentally" turned on his communicator which connected him to all the Wanderers and Military personnel who were participating in this mission.
The Captains, who were leading all the squads, prepared their practiced maneuver against the strongest Aerial Forces of the Jinns and Majins.
"Lord Wendell, Lord Lawrence, and Lord Trevor, please prepare to sortie," Thirteen ordered. "Everyone needs you on the battlefield."
The three Monarchs, who were waiting at the Dvalinn Port, summoned their Flying Mounts and rose to the sky.
Their role was to fend off the Wyvern King, the strongest flying monster in the Rigel Continent.
As long as it was kept in check, the other Thrones, who were part of the Omega Team, would also move out and support them from the ground.
Now that the major threats on land had been cleared, it was now time for them to join the battlefield as well. "Omega Team, advance!" Thirteen ordered. The three Thrones of the Dvalinn Federation, Ronald Rhodes, Hugo Riggs, and Spencer Nightshade, also gave the order to advance, leading their armies to battle.
"Advance!" Ronald shouted. "It's time to get some action boys!"
"""Yeah!"""
Thousands of Humvees moved forward, followed by tens of thousands of soldiers on the ground.
Earlier, all of them were feeling anxious because they didn't know if they would be able to survive the battle or not.
But now, they were itching for a fight and wished to join their brothers and sisters on the front lines who were having all the action for themselves.
"To the Naval Fleet, are all of you ready?" Thirteen asked.
"""Sir, Yes Sir!"""
"Good," Thirteen replied. "Remember the coordinates I gave earlier. All of you will concentrate your firepower in that direction."
Since the main bulk of the enemy's forces were about to meet up with the Wolf King, it was only a matter of time before they regrouped for a counterattack.
However, this was also the thing that Thirteen was waiting for.
He had cast the dice, and whether it would be a winning throw or not would only be known when the Wyvern King finally entered the battlefield.
