Chapter 671 Fighting back
"Damn it!! First division, retreat quickly!!" The commander of the first division, Ohon, shouted to his followers, but he remained standing like a peg
The first squad of elite vanguards, which was supposed to be made up of 500 high-leveled sages, armed with the best weapons of the Great Serpent Emperor, and at their head was an officer with the strength of a mid-level Emperor... Did not look well at all at this moment.
Their shiny silver armor was filled with holes and broken pieces, some even missing a limb or two, and their current numbers did not reach 300 at best.
"You\'re not going anywhere!!" A human carrying a heavy golden sword raised it to the sky and brought it down with all his might, and he was not alone
Behind him were over 3,000 people from the various intelligent races in Nihari, each one of them carrying a different golden weapon and all of them striking at the same time!
"HEYAAAAA!!!" In response, 1st Division Commander Ohon gathered all his strength into his fist and unleashed a powerful attack from his silver gauntlet.
Again, a massive explosion occurred, forcing the first division commander, Ohon, to retreat and causing the death of a number of his division members, but the rest were able to retreat to a safe distance, and Ohon quickly followed them, with his tail between his feet and a thread of blood appeared next to his mouth... This was the first time he was injured since he was transferred to the Vanguard spacecraft and was appointed head of the first divisions, no, this is the first time he has been injured since he became a Martial Emperor!
...Almost two months have passed since the invasion began. On that day, Commander Seagal ordered the soldiers to be divided into six divisions, each division headed by an officer, and each division must advance in a specific direction to collect the largest possible amount of energy pearls. Of course, this can only be done by destroying any city they see.
In the beginning, the mission went smoothly. No walls could withstand a Martial Emperor, and no defenses could withstand 500 fully armored high-leveled sages. It would not be an exaggeration if it was said that almost a quarter of the central region was leveled to the ground during the two months, and during this period Commander Seagal and his companions gathered more than 20,000 energy pearls, This huge amount almost drove them crazy!!
But their rush and enthusiasm did not last long. After the initial confusion and fear, the residents of the central region began to realize the situation and began to gather, and unknown golden weapons began to appear.
It soon became clear that these golden weapons, although their composition was noticeably different, were equivalent to their silver weapons in terms of power and had almost the same uses. In the beginning, ten people carrying these strange golden weapons appeared in one city, and they were enough to confront a number of the Vanguards, but in the next city fifty appeared, then a hundred... And today they found three thousand of those weapons in one place!!
And it is not just the appearance of weapons, but there is clear coordination. Some soldiers said that they saw people dressed in black and wearing black masks guiding the local soldiers from behind!
"You\'re not going anywhere!!" One of the locals shouted loudly and followed Ohon and the rest. Because of the force of gravity, they were all running on the ground, which made escaping much more difficult.
"Don\'t push your luck, you local worms!!" Ohon stopped again and sent a quick attack backward, killing 10 pursuers, then continued his long jumps again.
As a fourth-stage Law user, Ohon could undoubtedly escape anytime he wanted, but he definitely couldn\'t confront 3,000 Sages and Saints attacking at the same time, especially when they were using those damned golden weapons!
What was forcing him to stay in the rear to endure all these attacks was that he wanted to return to Commander Seagal with at least a few of the soldiers entrusted to him!
But at this rate, they will all...
*Vroom*
At this moment, a huge metal serpent appeared in the sky, opening its mouth. It was the spacecraft!
*OOMMMNNN*
A huge energy ball gathered in the mouth of the huge metal serpent, and then: *Boom*
*Boom* *Boom* *Boom*
Twenty giant energy balls headed toward the locals one after another without stopping
"NOO!!!"
When the local residents saw the huge energy balls approaching, they raised their weapons and launched their attacks at them as well, but the exchange of attacks was of no use this time... The energy ball evaporated the attacks on its way and continued on its way until it exploded among the local residents. In an instant, a two-kilometer diameter hole appeared in the middle of the forest. The bodies of the Three Thousand Sages no longer exist, they have evaporated...
*Fssss*
The side door of the vehicle opened and Commander Seagal emerged from it, signs of anger clearly written on his faces
"Oh.. hello, boss." The giant Ohon finally breathed a sigh of relief, but he did not look his leader directly in the eyes
After the golden weapons began to appear a while ago and the resistance became more powerful and traps and a clear organization of the resistance began to appear, Commander Seagal issued an order to stop advancing further in the same way and to merge every two division into one, but Ohun ignored the orders and advanced anyway.
"We salute the commander." The remaining soldiers gave the Great Serpent Empire military salute, then sat down and treated their wounds.
"Hello? Do you even realize how much damage you\'ve caused?" Commander Seagal shouted at his officer as he descended towards him
After a few seconds, Ohon sighed and scratched his head before he also took a military stance and shouted, "I apologize for my negligence. I caused the death of 200 elite soldiers and this is an unforgivable loss that has weakened our great empire."
"Damn the 200 soldiers, in order to save you I had to use the maximum power of the cannon and I consumed a thousand energy pearls in total! I will write this in the report about you, you will pay for them one way or another, you reckless bastard!" Seagal came forward and kicked his officer in the face n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
"A- A thousand?! Just to save me? Who do you think I am?! Those bastards wouldn\'t even touch my hair, you\'re the one who hastened!!" When Ohon heard about consuming a thousand pearls, he forgot to wipe his face from the traces of mud and responded quickly.
"Idiot, there was a trap waiting for you ahead with 4,000 locals carrying these same weapons. Had we not come, they would have closed in on you from all sides and killed you." Commander Seagal pushed his officer away
"Four thousand? But I decided to attack this settlement today. How did they plan and prepare for something like this?!" His shock quickly turned into fear. If he were attacked from all sides with those golden weapons, there would be no way to escape.
"What happened requires careful monitoring and analysis at the highest level. They even predicted the direction in which you would flee, or at least pushed you to take this specific direction... There is a hidden web being woven around us. Those in black are plotting something, and what happened today will certainly not be the last." The commander sent one last angry look towards his First Division Commander and looked towards the horizon, "Enough looting for now, we have already lost half of our soldiers... 19,000 energy pearls is not bad loot either, we will choose a city in a good location and settle there until the main army comes... I want to see what the black-clothed bastards will do now!"
