Chapter 247: Fight for survival (1)
“Let’s go.”
One of the Ainos spoke listlessly. But it wasn’t only him; the other Ainos around him also seed to be in despair.
“I never… never thought I would have to leave my ho again…”
An elderly Ainos moaned. They had experienced it once in the past, but now they had hope of regaining their old ways and living in peace. Yet all that work and effort had disappeared when the Gate opened.
“Do we really need to leave?”
Another elderly Ainos asked as the few of them turned to look at each other. A voice ca from afar and made them move.
“MOVE! We are evacuating to the Magnos mines!”
“Dammit.”
The Ainos sighed and began moving.
As the Ainos began to evacuate, the news was also sent to the Magnos. However, the reaction was different from that of the Ainos.
“What about the damn monsters? We have enough food and weapons. We should fight!”
One of the middle-aged Magnos, who had a full beard, pounded the ground with his hamr and shouted. The other Magnos frowned.
‘He’s up again.’
‘I wondered why he hadn’t shown up.’
“Tanos, the signal fire is not just a warning. It’s the black one. Emperor Joonbum warned us about the black fire. Have you not learned?”
One of the other Magnos ca up to Tanos to stop him.
“Yeah, I saw that, Nohran. But do you really believe that other world emperor? Don’t be foolish. We must stand and fight!”
Tanos shouted in anger, but Nohran shook his head.
“I know what you an, but we cannot put up a fight here. The food and weapons you speak of will not last us longer than half a year. Also, the Ainos are already on the move. They are Ainos, the proud ones that never leave their ho. I know what you an, but we must evacuate.”
Tanos slamd his hamr down but did not answer. He, too, knew that the situation wasn’t sothing that they could deal with anymore.
“S-sir Jackson! It’s the black signal fire!”
Jackson, who was concentrating on his work, turned to the interruption. Questions filled his eyes. The only problems they had in recent days were the war and the Gate. But Joonbum and Jinpok were each on their way to solve those two issues. The war was going fine with most battlefronts being victorious. Commander Jinpok was reported to be slightly injured, but that was pretty much it.
‘Black? Is it a mistake?’
The black signal ant one thing – a global disaster. It wasn’t sothing that could be used by mistake as it was kept separately.
“Is it from the Gate?”
“Yes, sir.”
Jackson frowned at Todd’s answer.
‘Hectos is too far…’
Jackson thought about calling in Hectos but he was out with the expedition team in the southeastern region to hunt down monsters.
“Todd, send a ssage to letoba in the Donian rchant Group to ready as ordered for the Black Light. It’s by the order of the Emperor.”
“Yes, sir.”
“Call in Billis Joel, Higgs Crain, Jorliado Valen, Davis Horliner…”
Jackson began reciting the nas of knights. Even when the situation was unexpected, the Khalodian Empire had a well-prepared system to deal with disasters per Joonbum’s orders.
“Send ssages to Galia, Dentrion, and the Benzen Kingdoms to prepare for the disaster coming down from the Khalodian Mountains.”
“Yes, sir!”
Jackson started to prepare and the Khalodian Empire began mobilizing its million soldiers for battle.
