Chapter 1627: Chapter 78: Reinforcents Arrive (Part 2)
The arrogant soldiers and fierce generals have always been rooted in reality.
The Demonic Crocodile Clan entered the surface world and advanced smoothly till now, and inevitably, the military has beco sowhat overly proud.
Coincidentally, they are all ritorious contributors, and now it’s warti, so the Demonic Crocodile King cannot say much.
Now that the military has made an error, the Demonic Crocodile King, who excels at managing subordinates, naturally won’t miss the chance to reprimand strategically.
“Your Majesty, calm your anger!
This matter can’t be entirely blad on the Marshal.
Trust between the Giant Centipedes and us has always been lacking, so if they deliberately avoid us, it would be difficult to find them amidst the chaos in a short ti.”
Chancellor Suzillo’s explanation directly cornered Marshal Kent.
Seemingly providing a defense, yet it actually confird the military’s responsibility.
Knowing the discord between the two sides without anticipating it beforehand is itself a mistake.
Regarding this, Marshal Kent felt deeply wronged.
Both sides had a plan to encircle Hudson, and our clan sent two Sanctuary Powerhouses for this, among them one Second Order Sanctuary.
Such a lineup is more effective than sending nurous spies.
Regrettably, after the battle, these two vanished mysteriously, with no response to repeated signals.
“Your Majesty, apart from the disappearance of the Giant Centipede King Court, the two Respected Ones we sent are also missing.
Earlier, we joined forces with the Giant Centipede and killed two Human Sanctuary beings, which is likely related to this!”
To divert attention, Marshal Kent imdiately tossed out his conjecture.
Killing two Human Sanctuary beings could reasonably trigger a revenge from the Humans.
While Sanctuary beings are certainly hard to kill, if the ones acting are continental overlords, it’s another story.
Even after achieving a series of victories on the battlefield, the fear towards Humans as continental overlords remains unabated.
After listening to Marshal Kent’s analysis, the Demonic Crocodile King no longer focused on reprimanding the military.
The fall of two Sanctuary Powerhouses is a significant hit for the Demonic Crocodile Clan.
What worries him even more is how far the Human retaliation will go.
Compared to this giant entity, they are indeed far too weak.
Even if the retaliation is carried out with all might, even using just one percent of their power is enough to make the Demonic Crocodile Clan suffer.
Considering the mysterious disappearance of the Giant Centipede King Court, the Demonic Crocodile King has already believed this conjecture ninety percent.
“Imdiately verify the news!
There was considerable noise in the Sanctuary battle; capturing a few centipedes to interrogate should yield useful information.”
The Demonic Crocodile King ordered with a grave expression.
It’s coming!
The worst-case scenario is finally about to unfold!
Deep inside, just a tinge of regret flashed and was imdiately extinguished by the Demonic Crocodile King.
From the mont the flas of war were ignited, both sides stood on opposing ends. If not opportunely slaying the enemy’s Sanctuary beings, the pressure later would only intensify.
Besides, there’s the promise from the Stone People Race: as long as ten Human Sanctuary beings can be slain, or Hudson can be killed, they would be recomnded for joining the Anti-Human Alliance.
Unfortunately, just forty percent of the plan was completed before encountering the Human retaliation.
The defeat of the Giant Centipede overturned all their military plans.
…
Allied Army Campus.
The sky had just begun to brighten, and the camp started lighting fires and cooking.
Today’s task is exceptionally heavy; yesterday’s battle was only the beginning, and the final achievents depend on today’s performance.
“Marshal, the Seventh Offering Team One Two Sub-team reports!”
The loud voice echoed through the clouds, audible throughout the entire camp.
Looking toward the direction of the voice, one would see approximately a hundred Flying Dragon Cavalry appearing in the sky.
Though not nurous, each emitted an aura of strength, even the weakest among them was of the Eighth Order.
According to Hudson, as the prominent power of the Alliance, the Seventh Offering Brigade consists of five teams, each with a main and deputy leader, both reserved for Sanctuary Powerhouses, totaling fifty-two people.
Each team consists of ten groups, each group fully staffed with ten people, led by one leader.
Full staffing of two teams should be one hundred and four people; this ti there are only one hundred and two, which ans two are missing.
With the principle of preferring short staffing over subpar staffing, it’s common to be understaffed, so missing two people is not surprising.
What truly astounded Hudson was: the slightly higher than expected number of Sanctuary Powerhouses in the team.
Within a team of one hundred and two mbers, there were ten Sanctuary Powerhouses, four of whom were Second Order Sanctuary.
If it were during prosperous tis, such a lineup would not be surprising.
After centuries of accumulation, even if the Sanctuary count doubled, it would not surprise him.
But now things are different!
In this era where Second Order Sanctuary outnumber First Level Sanctuary, having six First Level Sanctuary within two offering teams is indeed quite attention-grabbing.
“Welco to the team!”
Hudson said cheerfully.
Despite the doubts, in front of everyone, he maintained his composure.
The Offering Group, being a special organization, having so unique circumstances is entirely understandable.
After all, Strongn are different from soldiers; they cannot be strictly constrained by discipline.
The Offering Group’s structure is relatively loose, and its personnel composition is not fixed. Due to one task, temporarily reorganizing the structure is not unheard of.
Even during the execution of a task, temporarily recruiting so Strongn to join is possible.
This flexible approach makes it difficult for outsiders to discern the real strength of the Offering Group.
Even soone at Hudson’s level cannot guarantee that the information he knows is exhaustive.
After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Hudson led the group into the Marshal’s Camp.
Due to space constraints, mbers of the Offering Group below Sanctuary remained outside, along with the array of commanders from the command center.
Hudson remained seated in his place, while the two Vice Commanders naturally beca attendants serving tea and water, without the slightest sense of discord throughout.
After a brief overview of the battle situation, everyone’s expressions changed.
The count of enemies doesn’t greatly affect the Sanctuary Powerhouses; they are devoted practitioners long detached from worldly conflicts.
But to slay five enemy Sanctuary beings in one battle, including two Second Order Sanctuary, is indeed highly impactful.
Their presence this ti is essentially due to the killing of two Sanctuary beings from the Black Forest Kingdom, which humiliated the Human Alliance.
If it were a fair and open duel, regardless of Strongn deaths, the Human Alliance would say nothing, as this is the deanor of continental overlords.
No Strongn can arise in a nursery-like environnt; the Human Alliance also hopes that Strongn of Different Races can pressure their internal Strongn to facilitate better growth.
But organizing a massive number of Strongn to encircle Human Sanctuary beings violated the rules set by the Human Alliance.
Based on previous continental conflicts, it’s clear both Humans and Different Races alliances tacitly agreed not to involve Sanctuary Powerhouses in battles.
Only these clueless Earth Core races dared to foolishly break the rules.
If it were other surface races, they would undoubtedly think thrice before acting.
To truly provoke the Humans, only the elf race with nurous ancient entities can contest Humans in peak combat power.
“Marshal, your strength and military strategy are as unpredictable as supernatural forces, truly a deserved title as the continent’s top Strongman!”
Venerable Aelfred couldn’t help but praise.
To battle against nine enemy Sanctuary beings single-handedly, including two Second Order Sanctuary, clearly elevates him above their level.
Even a Third Order Sanctuary Powerhouse cannot guarantee better performance than Hudson in such a situation.
To dare ambush such a monster, it’s deservedly unfortunate for the Giant Centipedes and the Demonic Crocodile Clan.
“Haha…”
“Venerable Aelfred, the continent is teeming with hidden talents, countless secluded Strongn.
Who can guarantee invincibility? Perhaps sowhere, an ancient entity erges with skills vastly beyond ours.
In the mundane world, an individual’s power can never achieve invincibility; invincibility belongs to groups, to species!
With the power of our Human Race, we can dominate the continent. Singly, individuals or nations appear insignificant when scanning the entire continent.
After the defeat of the Giant Centipedes, they will surely choose to ally with the Demonic Crocodile Clan. Initially uncertain, your tily arrival changes everything.”
Hudson cheerfully deceived.
The title of the strongest has always been loaded with animosity; others may speak it, but he himself must never acknowledge it.
