Chapter 1148 - Can You Scream?

~Din. Din. Din. Din. Din. Din. Din~

Like a well-fueled army, the heavy steps of the Adonis warriors echoed out around the dock, as over 260,000 of them formed the most intimidating legion tripline of all.​​

Some with spears, some with arrows, some with chariots, some on horses, others as Thamans, and so on.

Very quickly, they turned to face the sh.i.p.s, to listen to their Kardinal, who would be staying back on the sh.i.p.s as the base alongside their Holy Generals standing beside him.

The Holy Generals would eventually go out and fight, but not until the war was half done.

After all, they had to leave a fierce image of themselves to their troops, who would then retell the stories when they got back home.

Please!

With the rings on their fingers, how could they not fight?

It was just that they wanted to step into the battle with full strength at a time that many would be a little worn out.

And don't get them wrong.

At present, only 4/5th of their entire armies had gone out all at once.

The only 1/5th were still on the sh.i.p.s, as emergency reserves, as well as their own personal units they would use to show their vigour to the world.

Usually, battles could take up to a week or even up to 4 months when trying to take over a single city.

Well, this would undoubtedly be the case if they were trying to break into just 1 city or town in Morgany.

But this was Pyno. And the fact that they also had the element of surprise made them feel that the battle shouldn't even take up to 3 days.

Today, they would clear out 90% of the enemy forces.

In fact, the smarter ones should be having for the next town or village nearby.

So all in all, this shouldn't take too long.

.

For now, these Holy Generals would oversee the battle before joining in later.

Of course, Kardinal Ratum had also decided to join in later as well, to release his rate for the sinking ship and chariots too.

All these things were money to him. And now, they were several feet under the cold icy waters.

So how could he not be pissed?

Ratum looked at the thousands and thousands of units stretched and spread out through the region with full metal armour and helmets... And quickly had someone hear him bring the Megaphone closer to him.

His megaphone was a golden conical shape, with special symbols on it too.

"I won't go into why this battle is important or why we must win because you all know this.

We are the chosen ones in this work, the only light tasked with bringing people closer to Adonis.

Moreover, we are better, stronger, skilled and more equipped than these beggars.

So go out there and give them hell!"

"Yeah!!!!!!!"

The entire army cheered, raising battle morale, before doing several symbols with their hands and chanting a few words too.

At the same time, Ratum also chanted a few words before retaking a deep breath.

"All warriors, move out now.

And may Adonis be with you!"

Everyone beated their c.h.e.s.ts twice: "Yes, Holy one!"

With that, those at the very back turned around and now became the leading teams in their groups.

Of course, those who stayed at the back during the speech were actually the leading forces of the group.

And the Thamans in each unit were strategically placed at the ends of the rectangular-shaped formations and also at the centre.

Now, the real battle was on!

.

~Ding. Ding. Ding. Ding.~

The faint cries of the city warning bell echoed out, as well as the faint sounds of disorder too.

But so far, none of these savages had dared to come down and fight yet.

He looked at the slippery and icy terrain and couldn't help frowning.

Without a doubt, with Spring here, the rains had tightened the snow, creating ice instead.

Some places still looked like balls of snow, while others were just pure ice.

And the sloppy hill terrain was putting more pressure on them, causing them to slow down their pace instead, as if... Well, as if they were walking on several thin sheets of ice.

And any harsh movements could make them slip and mess up the formation because once one person falls, he triggers those behind to fall as well.

And soon, balls of people would be rolling down instead.

Fortunately, from the map, after they pass this stupid sloppy, they shouldn't be meeting any more deeply slated slopes again.

Yes. There was another slope after this one, but it wasn't so deep and was very walkable.

Of course, after that one, they would then be on even ground, making it easy for them to raid these bastards and spread out onto different directions across the vast city that would take one over 3 hours to move in a straight line from one end to another.

.

The air was tense as the undefeated Army steadily Marched their way up the slope.

Now, they were just about halfway through the slope.

The sounds of faint worry still entered their ears, but no one had shown up yet.

Mikel furrowed his brows thoughtfully as a deep sense of uneasiness made him subconsciously shower.

Why?

Why did he constantly have the feeling that something was wrong?

He did indeed hear the sounds of chaos, but wasn't it strange that there were no noble or patriotic guards who didn't even feel like fighting or taking a look?

Till now, no one, not even a stray dog, had come over, even to check the situation here.

Were they all trying to flee instead?

This... This... Well, this wasn't all too strange.

7 years back when they headed towards one of the empires in Dania to begin their conquest, they did meet a similar situation to this with everyone running and fleeing for their lives.

Morgany was positioned to the Right of Lampe/Adonis... And Dania was postponed to the left of Lampe.

So of course their first continent of conquest was actually Dania.

At present, 1/4th of Dania had been taken over by them.

But it wouldn't take too long before the entire continent became the next Lampe.

That said, they had met a few situations like this, where the people and soldiers fled to take refuge within the next cities, towns and even empires without even fighting back the moment they saw the Adonis symbol.

So it stands without reason that the same thing might've happened here.

But why?

Why did his guy tell him otherwise?

As a man who has been on the battlefield and fought endless battles since the age of 7, his instincts were giving off very bad vibes.

And it wasn't just him, but the other Battlefords too.

They kept feeling that something was off but couldn't quite put their fingers on it.

But as they ascended and saw that nothing was happening, they slowly let go of their suspicions.

Heh. The other regions they had conquered for Adonis were far superior to any entire in Pyno.

So if even those places had fallen to them, then what more of this Teriquen empire in this Village Continent of beggars?

Mike and the rest all shook their heads and shook off the uneasiness.

If anything, they should be grateful that no enemy had tried shooting flaming or black powder-tubed arrows at them.

Because the icy show was really a headache.

Mike took one step at a time and couldn't help praising whoever had made this slope.

Tsk! What a waste!

The slope was made for battle defence ages ago.

But too bad that the current inhibitors of the place didn't know how to use it, and we're complete cowards, fleeing instead.

Of course. What else could he expect from the current Terique?

.

Everyone's morale was still high and steady as they ascended the snowy slope.

They even joked a few times too.

"Battleford Mikel, Hahahhaha... As expected, these savages are scared of us."

"Yes. Just look at how fast they're trying to flee?

100 copper coins on the fact that they're trying to take as much treasure as they can into their marriages and run."

"Hahahahaha! This is another victory for Adonis!"

With deeply stained yellowish teeth, they all smiled merrily, still advancing at their steady pace.

But soon, they saw something... No! Several people right above, at the very top of the slope.

"Look! Look! They're here! I see some people holding bows in their hands. It looks like they want to shoot us down with arrows.

But their numbers are really disgraceful.

They only have 100 or so archers?"

Everyone saw this and almost laughed.

Mike sneered after listening to his men and seeing the archer's take their positions: "Men, Shields up, Block formation!"

Everyone nodded and did as they were told.

But just when they were ready to receive the arrows, something spring happened.

The Archers, already pointing at them, suddenly smiled and withdrew their focus, relaxing their hands.

Everyone was shocked and confused.

Eh?

Don't you want to kill the enemy?

Things were not making sense to them at all.

But soon, it did.

"FIRE!"

~Boom! Boom! Boom!

Question of the day: How high can you scream?

~Boom! Boom! Boom!
