I Become Master of Danger Zones as Incubus With Mastery In Genetic Chapter 398 Exploding Point

"What?! An Archdemon that is close to becoming a Demon Lord?!" General Pharrell exclaid, slamming his fist on the table.

Soone would have reprimanded him but they are as shocked as him regarding the new Intel.

"How strong do you think the Archdemon would be?" ever the calm one, King Eskal asked the important question imdiately.

"Strong that we will need about 20 A-rank to stand a chance." Bishop Pallus answered seriously.

"At least 20?! But the Archdemon is not a Demon Lord yet!" General Lanki said, almost yelling at this point.

"No, but close to be one would an he could theoretically handle himself, or at least surviving an hour against a Hero, an existence at S-rank." the Bishop said with a serious tone.

This cause those in the council to gulp.

While they had never seen a Hero or any S-ranks in action, they have heard enough tales about them.

From being able to leave their marks on the world in the form of the damage of their attacks, to saving many by destroying hordes of monsters, there are many feats that is impossible to armies of A-rankers, yet possible for S-rankers.

In fact, by definition, an S-rank is a being that could destroy entire city with a single attack. It safe to say the morales of Astor Kingdom suffer greatly without a single battle.

"Thankfully, half an S-rank is not an S-rank, so it is possible for us to defeat them. Just expect to suffer severe casualties." Bishop Pallus words being hope before the latter part reminded them of their grimm fate.

"At least it sothing we can handle. Suffering so losses would be inevitable against armies of such size either way.

At least we are not fighting an impossible battle." the King said, hoping it will rise the morales of his troops.

It work, as the mbers of the council's feel their spirit being lifted, ready for the upcoming battle.

"We are not without hope either. I have send a ssenger to the Pope, requesting one of the Holy Church's Hero to assist us in our mission."

At that, everyone in the room find their breath stopping even for a brief mont. After all, a powerful existence, one that could decide the safety and prosperity of a Nation would co to Astor Kingdom.

If not for the dire state the Kingdom had been facing, everyone would be excited to see a Hero in action.

"In that case, we will continue our defensive play. There is no need to be pulled in and fight them on even ground. It would only lead to a heavy massacre." the King said.

The Generals nodded as they began to discuss more of their plans, all focused on turning the cities into an impregnable fortress.

"So, they did not take the bait." Alros said calmly, having expected such thing.

After all, if the people of Astor Kingdom have one brain cell, they would still be able to recognize such obvious trap.

"It seem we have spur them into defending the cities and fortresses even more." Alros continue to say, as he flew around, observing the enemy before going back to his room.

"Oh well, I wonder how my monsters will do things now? Will they use the trump card for any siege battle that I give them or not?

I just have to wait and watch the show."

-x-

"Grrghhh!" Demon Goblins Veteran, an A-rank monsters assigned to lead the building projects roared order to his underling.

As one of the strongest monsters of Alros, he was place into the hordes to beco the combat leaders, leading the monsters from the frontline in case Gobruk could not do so.

Still, he was still annoyed that he was put into such boring job, one where he oversee the construction of a weapon, not a combat role that he will thrive in.

Shouldn't such role be granted to a Demon Goblins Lord, maybe even a Demon Goblins King.

Despite his complaining, he continue doing his job, making sure the regular monsters di their jobs correctly and ensure there will be no compilation.

"Grrghh!" Gobruk greeted the Demon Goblin Veteran, who bowed at the Demon Goblin King.

After giving his respect, the Veteran began telling him if what they had finished ad what will be prepared after this.

After he was done, the King order a test, to ensure it would work functionally for what is to co.

When it finished, Gobruk nodded, pleased if what he had seen.

"Graaghh! Wraghh! Aarghh!" as her receive new order, the Demon Goblin Veteran could feel a smile slowly forming on his face.

Oh, the new order is one that he like.

-x-

The soldiers found themselves patrolling the walls more frequently as of late. Which they found to be not only tiring, but boring as well.

"Why did they suddenly gave us such order?" a soldier could not help complaining about it.

"The higher-ups are worried since the demon co out and seeing demons from their own shadow." another soldier said while snorting.

His friends laugh with him.

"True. Then again, the demon is said to h strong. I even hear rumours the Holy Church reinforcent even calling for a Hero to co." a soldier with connection to the upper echelon spill the tea.

The others looked at him like he was crazy.

"Really? I know demons are strong, but to call for a hero?"

"Apparently this one is stronger than most, but still manageable but the Holy Church did not want to take any chances." the soldier explained.

"At least they are good reinforcent. Not like certain people." the others knew who he ant.

After all, rcenaries are look down by the soldiers of all the nations, with the exception of Nation of Upharnus, the land of rcenary.

As they talked with themselves, they suddenly hear loud booming from afar.

While they might be slacking off at the mont, they are still trained soldiers, who imdiately looked at the other side.

What they saw made them turned pale.

"Ring the bell!" the leader of the group order, as the commotion was heard by everyone else.

"Light the beacon! Call for help because we are going to need it!"

For what they are facing is a giant made of stone and dirt, a legendary Giant Stone Golem, one that could destroy the wall of the cities with ease.
