66. A Conflict Begins (2)

Rendered speechless by Iron’s confidence, the 2 commanders nodded after a short time. 

–I perceive. 

–I want you luck within the battle. 

Having obtained the commanders’ assist, Iron bowed as he smiled. 

In the event that they didn’t belief within the Empire’s biggest hero, then who may they belief?

Having thought that, the 2 commanders determined to place their religion in Iron and focus solely on their frontlines. 

Within the meantime, the confederation’s troops steadily superior in direction of the southeastern Command, the place Saeridan was holding guard. 

“What in regards to the Commander?”

“He’s two hours away. He’s nearly right here.”

The intelligence officer replied instantly to Saeridan’s query. Saeridan gave a small nod when he heard the reply. Then he turned to hearken to the scouts’ report, whereas wanting on the confederation military’s formations. 

“What’s…… this confidence?”

As if able to push again your complete southeastern command, the opposing military had positioned all their important models on the very entrance. The 2 masters and the strongest among the many other-worlders had been rapidly approaching. Since Saeridan had returned to the Command, there was nothing blocking them; they subdued the monsters within the space and arrived within the territory of the command very quickly. 

“Put together for battle.”

“Sure, sir!”

At Saeridan’s order, all of the troops that had been within the Command started getting ready for battle. Because the twenty third Corps ready, the command defence guards additionally started preparing for fight. The storm troops, the knights division, artillery division and even the rangers had been all deployed. All of the airships rose into the air concurrently, the drake knights densely surrounding the ships. The retailers and commoners who had been contained in the Command went into the bunker, whereas all of the troopers who had been beforehand tasked with sustaining public order went up the Command’s partitions. 

As everybody within the Command was getting ready for battle, Saeridan and the opposite commanding officers continued to watch the enemy forces. 

“They don’t even look the slightest bit afraid.”

Saeridan seemed on the state of affairs unfolding on the video crystal earlier than bursting into a brief snicker. He was totally dumbfounded. Trusting within the masters that had been main them, the confederation’s military continued to advance regardless of being within the vary of the command’s fortress weapons. In the event that they superior only a bit extra, they might be within the vary for artillery fireplace. 

Saeridan was positive that they’d intel in regards to the command. In any case, the battle they’d fought within the southeast was well-known not solely within the Empire, however all through your complete continent. Regardless of that, the enemy forces had been advancing so fearlessly. 

“We could reply with some fireplace?”

“I believe we must always.”

Carl, who had approached Saeridan sooner or later, stood beside him, a dumbfounded look on his face. 

Within the absence of the commander, Carl had been answerable for the command’s defence. On high of that, he was additionally answerable for your complete air drive unit, together with the drakes and the airships. This meant that Carl was answerable for each the big mana weapons that had been put in on the airships and the command’s fortress weapons. 

“We must always knock them down a bit.”

Instantly Carl completed his sentence, the commissioned officers moved to start working the fortress weapons. The airships that had been gliding by means of the skies additionally launched the big mana weapons they had been fitted with.

“Let’s have some enjoyable whereas sending them packing.”

Carl smiled at Saeridan’s phrases, earlier than giving the order. 

“Hearth!”

As quickly as Carl spoke, all of the fortress weapons fired on the identical time. The airships opened fireplace as effectively, flashes of blue mild coming from the mana weapons as they shot on the enemy. 

A number of limitations unfolded across the confederation’s military, stopping the photographs. However the fortress weapons’ immense firepower was not one thing magic limitations alone may cease. 

It was presently that an unlimited determine appeared. 

“That they had a hidden energy?”

Saeridan seemed on the giant-like determine that had appeared abruptly. It was an incarnation of an historical god, its incarnate physique not but totally fashioned. It had come right down to reveal itself for a short time.

An historical god may solely seem if the a number of individuals who had woke up by its energy joined their strengths and paid a sure value.

Nonetheless, its energy was certainly nice. 

“It appears they’re planning to drive us again.”

“It doesn’t matter what, now we have to carry on till the Commander arrives.”

Carl replied to Saeridan with a scowl on his face. 

As they had been talking, the artillery started to fireside on the command of the artillery unit’s captain. The cannonballs, fortified with a particular materials, fell like rain, pummelling the incarnation that was shifting from the enemy frontline. Proper after that, the fortress weapons and mana weapons that had refuelled fired once more. The flashes of sunshine from the mana weapons painted the sky blue as they flew in direction of the confederation’s military, whereas an enormous variety of bolstered cannonballs had been let unfastened. 

As is to be anticipated, the confederation’s military started their counteroffensive. Additionally they launched long-range assaults utilizing their artillery, and the woke up amongst them used their talents to assault. 

Flames surged from the barren earth, whereas flashes of lightning swept by means of the sky: these assaults had been all carried out by the woke up. 

However woke up individuals didn’t exist on the facet of the confederation’s military alone. 

All of the individuals of the Empire had woke up too. 

Though their expertise had been nonetheless weak as a result of it had not been lengthy since they woke up, they united their particular person powers and withstood the big scale assault. The troopers stopped the lightning that drilled previous the limitations and the surging flames all on their very own. 

However then, the 2 strongest people within the confederation’s military, stepped ahead. 

“Are they masters?”

As Saeridan spoke, he opened the window in entrance of him and flew ahead. The opposite commanding officers additionally headed for the partitions of the Command, the identical thought as Saeridan’s operating by means of their heads. 

Now that the Commander was current, they needed to go face to face with the masters and purchase a while. 

“You assume issues like yourselves can cease me?”

Carlos sneered as he seemed on the commanding officers who had gathered on the partitions. 

However as an alternative of responding, the commanding officers of the Cell Subject Military drew their swords as an alternative. 

Feeling their resolve, Muradin grabbed Carlos by the shoulder and drew his personal sword as an alternative. 

“I respect your braveness. I’ll make sure you provide you with a clear demise.”

Instantly he dropped that sentence, Muradin flashed to the gates of the southeastern command and made an enormous sword. Behind him, Carlos made an sad expression earlier than turning away. 

It was a sword assault with the total energy of a grasp. Even when high-ranked knights wrapped a magic barrier round themselves and joined all their powers, there was no approach they may cease that assault. 

Nonetheless, that thought was quickly disproved. 

Kwoong!

Muridan’s sword that had been headed to chop down the gates to the Command in addition to the commanding officers was blocked enroute. 

It was two lions that had blocked his assault, one shining brilliantly, the opposite darkish as night time. Behind the lions stood the knights division and storm troops, supporting them. Everybody of them was proficient within the lion swordsmanship, in order that they gave extra energy to the lions of the leaders of the knights order and the storm troops. The 2 lions absorbed that energy and have become twice as robust as they had been initially; each time the 2 leaders swung their swords, they moved and withstood Muridan’s sword assaults. 

However then Muridan started utilizing the facility he had obtained from his historical god. Rocks flew up in direction of the sky, and fashioned 1000’s of metal swords. 

However these had been additionally blocked. 

“A flame lion this time?”

Muradin seemed to search out what had blocked his powers. It was the sword that Saeridan, commander of the twenty third Corp had drawn that blocked his assault. He had united the lion swordsmanship together with his personal fireplace powers to make a sword approach that was distinctive to him. 

As well as, the 2 leaders’ swords had additionally blocked his aura blade. 

“Tsk, tsk! It appears you’re struggling due to these little issues.”

Carlos spoke, Muridan as if he was pathetic. Muridan attacked once more with all his energy, the veins on his brow tense and palpable. 

Even when he had been judged as weak among the many masters, he was nonetheless a grasp. With the addition of the powers given to him by the traditional god, he was a professional disaster. 

Increase!

Together with his sword approach on full show, the 2 lions that had fended him off for a short time had been pushed again a far methods. 

Just like the Leopold household’s sword approach, the facility of Muradin’s sword approach may very well be amplified the longer he used his sword. Due to that particular high quality, the knights order and the storm troops had been finally pressured to retreat little by little. 

As they had been being pressured again by Muradin’s overwhelming energy, Carlos additionally raised his sword. It was a quickblade of the very best high quality. Such a sword belonged solely to Carlos. 

In an effort to cease him, all of the Rangers, Saeridan and the Ravens stepped ahead. 

Clang clang clang!

Carlos fully parried the Ravens’ shock assault in addition to Rangers’ lengthy vary assault, swinging his sword with a leisurely expression on his face. With one blow, he lower by means of Saeridan’s flame lion. 

“Cough!”

“It should really feel like your insides are being crushed. It’s the facility I received from the traditional gods. The second you block it, it should rend your insides.”

Having fused his sword approach with the facility of the traditional gods, bringing it near perfection, Carlos’ energy was so robust that nobody dared to go up in opposition to it. 

With the assaults of the 2 masters, the troops and even the twenty third Corps had been at risk of being defeated. So as to add to the combo, the other-worlders started attacking the Command zealously. 

In the meantime, the confederation’s military troops seemed on on the battle taking place earlier than them. Seeing their commanders’ immense energy, their morale went by means of the roof. It appeared they might be capable of take down the command inside a couple of minutes. 

As they had been considering this, the masters who had been displaying their may in all its splendour had been all of a sudden pushed again. 

Boooom!

There was the sound of a large explosion. It was two flashes of sunshine that had pressured the 2 masters again, an influence that everybody in Cell Subject Military couldn’t be any extra aware of.

“Tsk! That’s a disgrace.”

Carlos seemed regretfully at Saeridan and the Rangers that he had nearly completed off. Muradin positively felt the identical approach too.

These defending the Command had been stronger than they anticipated, in order that they’d struggled a bit. But when they’d had only a bit extra time, they may have decimated the principle forces of the Cell Subject Military. 

“Is that…… divine energy?”

They felt an vitality surrounding and suffocating them. Muradin frowned as his swung his sword. His sword lower by means of the vitality, a light-weight shining because it was lower. 

“You’re right here.”

“……are you the Empire’s hero?”

Muradin and Carlos each seemed on the younger man that had pressured them to retreat. 

Nonetheless, the person didn’t reply and raised his sword as an alternative. Instantly the identical highly effective drive surrounded them, whereas huge divine beasts appeared within the skies. Concurrently, the aura from the sword, his divine energy and holy energy closed in on them, and weighed down on the 2 masters.

“Impudent!”

“You dare consider urgent us down!”

With rotten appears to be like on their faces, the 2 masters launched all of their energy. 

Out of the blue, an immense energy started to collect within the skies. 

-The lion of the Lord God!

-He should die!

-Kill him!

-Kill!

Abruptly, a number of incarnations started showing all over. They confirmed deep animosity in direction of Iron, raring to kill him. 

That instantaneous, a notification alarm rang within the ears of everybody there. 

[God Game’s Apocalypse first story, the war between the ancient gods and the Lord God begins.]

-Big reward for the victors! Losers obtain solely demise and extinction. Please battle to win this struggle. 

-Reward considerably will increase all expertise and skills. 

-Second awakening potential relying on stage of contribution to victory. 

The notification got here out of the blue, and may very well be heard on each side of the struggle. Seeing that everybody had heard the identical factor, they checked out one another’s faces. Quickly, greed started to glisten of their eyes. 

“It appears this struggle is extra essential than we’d thought.”

At Iron’s phrases, Muradin and Carlos’ faces hardened as they tightly grasped the swords of their fingers. 

Watching them, Iron spoke to the divine beasts. 

‘Block the incarnations as a lot as potential.’

The divine beasts cried in response and nodded their heads. 

These issues had been incarnations of the traditional gods, however they had been but incomplete. 

After having their powers stripped repeatedly from them for a very long time, and their ranks diminished, the traditional gods had been infinitely weaker than they’d been within the legendary occasions. And now, since their incarnations had not fashioned totally, they had been all of the weaker for it.

Nonetheless, their appreciable numbers couldn’t be taken as a right. There have been all types of incarnations, however a few of them had been so robust that even a stage 6 would have a troublesome time going through them. 

“Are you planning to battle us with out your divine beasts?”

“Even with out them, I alone can take you.”

When Iron replied to Muradin that he was greater than sufficient to battle them, Carlos charged at him in anger. 

“Impertinent factor!”

Carlos roared in rage and flew at Iron, his quicksword on the prepared. Muradin rushed as Iron proper after him. 

As the 2 masters used their full energy to assault him, Iron did the identical too. 

With the battle between the masters begun, the confederation’s military and the Cell Subject Military started to battle in earnest.
