57 Reshuffling of the Forces within the Southeast (2)

At Iron’s orders, a lot of the troops of the Cellular Subject Military headed eastward. 

As soon as the Southern Command’s Frontlines could possibly be pushed again to occupy a fortress barely nearer to the Cellular Subject Military Command, each side can be given extra room to breathe. In spite of everything, each of their forces can be linked collectively and assist one another out.

Nonetheless, the Southern Command’s Frontlines nonetheless remained tangled with their very own wars whereas the Cellular Subject Military Command was introduced in a precarious state of affairs with nearly all of its troops headed eastwards.

Seeing that this could possibly be their final probability, the shrewd and intelligent monsters moved. It appeared like they didn’t need to miss this chance.

The unidentified but highly effective existence had already proven its presence off within the southern finish of the area whereas the large armored worm, which advanced into an imoogi, planted itself deeply with the large worm corps within the northern finish of the area. With these two ends taken, the monsters solely had one alternative. And that was to hit the weak-looking Cellular Subject Military. If they might efficiently occupy the world the place the Command was, then they might be capable of acquire a spot the place the entire mutants may dwell and survive. So, they flocked to this place like loopy canines out of the leash.

“Co… Commander.”

“It’s superb.”

The operations officer was flustered on the large variety of mutants operating from afar. It was a coalition of monsters, one thing that they hadn’t seen within the Southeast to date. It appeared like that they had all gathered collectively as a way to survive. 

“Is that this a monster wave?”

This was their first time seeing a monster wave within the Southeast.

All the monsters joined forces to begin an incredible motion that might assist them keep away from the robust enemies.

All the folks trembled in worry on the sight of their mad sprint in direction of the partitions that surrounded the Cellular Subject Military Command.

“What concerning the troops underneath our direct management?”

“They’re coming as quick as they will. Everybody can be again in 1 hour on the newest!”

The communications officer hurriedly reported what he heard after listening to Iron’s query. Then, Iron turned to take a look at the communications officer in control of the corps.

“What concerning the corps?”

“The twenty third Corps is an hour away from us.”

“The twenty second Corps may also be returning as quickly as potential. But it surely would possibly take three hours for them to reach.”

“The twenty first Corps will most likely take at the very least half-a-day.”

“Then, let’s say that we’re excluding the twenty first Corps…”

Iron nodded evenly after listening to the corps state of affairs from the communications officer as he turned to take a look at the intelligence officer. 

“Did you request help from Southern Command?”

“Sure, sir. They stated that two of their divisions are shifting straight away. And if they will nonetheless spare the manpower, they stated that they might nonetheless ship yet another division.”

“Good. Then, all that’s left for us to do is purchase a while. Proper?”

Iron appeared happy on the intelligence officer’s report. However the expressions of the opposite officers weren’t that good. 

Even when Iron was current, the variety of the troops current at Command was nonetheless small. All three of the corps have been exterior and a lot of the models underneath the direct orders of Command have been additionally deployed exterior. 

With the storm troops, knight order, magic unit, spirit unit, drake unit, airship unit and artillery unit dispatched exterior, solely among the guards and troops from the protection models have been left to guard Command. 

“I’ll block them upfront so that you simply must just be sure you don’t allow them to come inside.”

“Ye… Sure, sir!”

The operations officer answered rapidly however the different officers nonetheless appeared frightened. 

“Irrespective of how a lot the Commander takes on most of them by himself…”

“At this time limit, we should always simply urge the help troops to come back sooner.”

The intelligence officer spoke mindlessly however had no alternative however to rapidly go exterior after receiving Iron’s fierce glare. 

“If all of you don’t panic, you are able to do effectively and cease them along with your energy.”

Iron slowly left the Commander’s workplace after the officers scrambled exterior to comply with his orders. 

He didn’t lose his composure regardless of the darkish clouds led to by the incoming monster wave. If he, the middle of Command, appeared like he was in a rush then everybody would develop into anxious. So, Iron had no alternative however to fake like he was relaxed as he stared straight forward. 

However…

“That is going to be a bit onerous.” 

Iron grew tremendously throughout his combat in opposition to the large armored worm however he was shedding his confidence as he watched the black sea of mutant monsters flocking straight to Command. He had fought and blocked the large worm corps within the north alone and calmed down the Southeast however he nonetheless thought that this is able to be a tricky combat. 

However this was simply an hour. It might damage his pleasure as a grasp if he couldn’t block a wave like this for days not to mention an hour. 

“Guys, let’s attempt to block it for simply an hour.” 

Gigantic birds appeared within the sky on the finish of Iron’s phrases. 

The divine beasts, which made him into the grasp that he was now, confirmed off their presence by releasing their overwhelming energy in direction of the flock of monsters. 

An enormous storm all of the sudden appeared which created a twister that spinned in the midst of the enemies. Then, flames all of the sudden poured down and wound across the whirling twister, successfully sweeping every little thing in its path.

All the folks current within the fortress stared blankly at Thunderbird and Phoenix’s cooperation.

The phantom species underneath Iron have been all highly effective in their very own rights. Nonetheless, that they had all the time fought on their very own. However after blocking and combating in opposition to the large worms for months, they lastly opened their hearts to one another. That was why the 2 divine beasts may assimilate one another’s energy and showcase an unimaginable assault like this.

“Hearth Storm…” 

This was the primary talent that the divine beasts had provide you with. 

The divine beasts had created some abilities which led to their power catapulting to new heights over the previous few months. And proper now, one in all them was getting used. 

Unable to pierce via the ravaging Hearth Storm, a huge water buffalo appeared among the many numerous monsters. 

The water buffalo stood on its two toes and resembled a minotaurus. It was just for a second but it surely appeared prefer it was larger in physique in comparison with an ogre. However even when it was only for a brief second, it’s large physique allowed them to interrupt via the hearth storm. 

“Owl.” 

― Hoot!

This time, Two Moons got here out. 

Two Moons’ eyes shone brightly because it focused the large water buffalo taking the lead. 

As quickly as a ray of sunshine flashed from its two large eyes, Thunderbird’s lightning wrapped across the gentle and gave the ray of sunshine an extra increase of energy. 

The locations the place Two Moons’ rays of sunshine handed via have been burned and become lava. The enormous water buffalo didn’t even have the time to point out off its formidable power earlier than it disappeared into nothingness. The rays of sunshine with lightning wound round it have been so highly effective that it melted every little thing that it handed by.

This was the fusion of Two Moons and Thunderbird’s energy and was named by Iron as…

“The Two Judges.” 

Everybody current felt worry as every little thing disappeared and not using a hint underneath these two rays of sunshine. They have been all stunned and shocked by the overwhelming energy and majesty that they have been displaying. 

However this was not the tip of Iron’s divine beasts’ energy. 

They lastly confirmed what hell was wish to the monsters that broke via the Hearth Storm. 

This time, it was Phoenix and Two Moons who assimilated their powers. 

Intense hearth unfold in all instructions as Two Moons amplified the mana and elevated its depth even additional turning tha land within the surrounding space into lava. 

The surroundings appeared like hell had descended as flames soared and lava devoured the lands. The monsters, which had been strengthened by the contaminated mana and void vitality, melted and become ashes one after the opposite. 

“Hell…”

The title of this third fusion talent was none aside from ‘Hellfire River Rim’. Identical to what its title prompt, it confirmed an unimaginable sight as if hellfire descended on earth and burned the entire land. 

The scene in entrance of Command was full chaos. The Hearth Storm was raging wildly whereas the land was nonetheless being ravaged by the aftermath of the Two Judges’ ray of lights whereas hell continued to wreak havoc with the Hellfire River Rim.

Fusion Ability – Hearth Storm

Fusion Ability – Two Judges

Fusion Ability – Hellfire River Rim

The three fusion abilities made the ability of the three divine beasts stronger. 

Nonetheless, the reality was that the entire divine beasts that acknowledged Iron as their masters had distinct personalities and pleasure that nearly reached the skies. To not point out the 2 phantom species Phoenix and Thunderbird, even Two Moons, who was in a position to create a completely inaccessible space within the Northeast, was prideful. 

It was solely due to Iron that they got here collectively like this. Since they couldn’t exert their authentic energy but, they made this resolution to develop into useful to Iron. 

The variety of large worms evolving to nice worms was growing. Even the unevolved large worms have been getting stronger. However the charge of development of Iron’s divine energy was sluggish. If one in contrast it with different people, then the expansion of Iron’s divine energy could possibly be thought of astonishingly quick. Nonetheless, should you examine it to the expansion of the large armored worm and its subordinates then the expansion of Iron’s divine energy was extraordinarily sluggish. 

So, the divine beasts made the choice to open their hearts and minds to one another. 

If Iron didn’t have any alternative aside from to lose to these worms, then it could damage their pleasure much more. 

So, for Iron to not be overwhelmed by these worms, the divine beasts determined to affix forces collectively. And on account of months of steady makes an attempt, they have been lastly in a position to attain the assimilation stage. 

“Solely up so far, huh?” 

The divine beasts’ fusion abilities confirmed super energy however their energy and Iron’s divine energy was not infinite. As their power step by step light, the flames that burned like hell and the hearth storms that soared up within the sky step by step subsided and disappeared. 

Even when the divine energy was taken out of the image, the aftermath of the Hellfire River Rim and the Hearth Storm nonetheless remained. Nonetheless, their opponents have been mutated monsters. Their our bodies had been strengthened by the void vitality and have been in a position to trample on the burning floor as they rushed in direction of Command.

― Ppiii!

Iron smiled barely after listening to Phoenix say that it may do extra.

“I do know. However I’ve been resting all this time. It’s been some time since I warmed my physique up.” 

The three divine beasts checked out Iron in disappointment. 

They have been in a position to combat fierce battles repeatedly after they have been nonetheless combating in opposition to the large worm corps however after that they had returned to Command, there weren’t many battles that that they had fought. Even when they fought battles, they have been these bland and boring battles particularly after that they had in contrast it with the battles in opposition to the large worms. That was why the entire divine beasts have been excited to combat this battle. They felt like they lastly had the chance to stretch their wings a bit and use their powers after a very long time. 

However Iron didn’t enable them to take action telling them that it was now his time to combat.

― Hoot~ Hoot, hoot, hoot!

Two Moons flew up within the sky once more and ignored his phrases. Phoenix and Thunderbird instantly adopted swimsuit earlier than releasing their powers once more. 

“Hey! You guys…!” 

Iron tried to leap off of the wall when he noticed his divine beasts ignore his phrases and fly away. However a small chicken all of the sudden landed on Iron’s head and stopped him from doing so.

― Tweet!

“Ah… It’s additionally been some time since I warmed up…” 

― Tweet, tweet! Tweet, tweet, tweet, tweet! ( You’re fatigue nonetheless hasn’t worn off, you already know? Are you out of your thoughts? )

Iron bowed his head with a slight disappointment as he listened calmly to Baepsae’s phrases.

“B… However as soon as the monsters arrive on the fortress then…” 

― Tweet! Tweet, tweet, tweet! ( Are your subordinates simply there for adornment? )

Iron sighed at Baepsae’s nagging. He had no different alternative however to take a seat on the Commander’s seat and watch his divine beasts combat after being informed to settle down and take a relaxation. 

Nonetheless, regardless of the onslaught of lightning, flames and rays of sunshine, many monsters have been nonetheless in a position to attain the fortress on account of their sheer quantity that flocked to Command. 

They instantly fired artillery from the fortress partitions as a small variety of airships flew up and poured down bombs on them. 

Iron nonetheless continued to observe them calculating the time when he would step up. Ready, simply in case the monster wave broke via the divine beasts’ assaults and fully arrived on the fortress. 

However the one factor that drained his steam was the looks of greater than dozens of airships and tons of of drake models within the sky.

Upon listening to the information that Command was in disaster, the twenty second and twenty third Corps instantly despatched over help troops utilizing their quickest drakes and airships with much less baggage. 

― Tweet, tweet! ( I don’t suppose our grasp must do something, proper? )

Iron sighed softly at Baepsae’s phrases. 

He thought that he may attempt to heat his physique up after a very long time however there was nothing left for him to do the second the help troops arrived sooner than he anticipated. 

The drake models dropped bombs as they escorted the twenty third Corps airships. Then, as soon as the twenty third Corps’ airships arrived in the midst of the monster wave, they started to mercilessly drop rains of bombs on their enemies. 

Bang, bang, bang!

The heated rush of the monster wave died down because the bombs fell. 

With the drake models and airships wreaking havoc within the rear and the divine beasts blocking them upfront, the monsters have been left in chaos. Nonetheless, with their sheer quantity, waves of monsters continued to flock in direction of Command. 

The black sea of monsters continued to flock. However the Cellular Subject Military Command nonetheless held out and fought easily. Over time, with the arrival of the 2 divisions from Southern Command and their seamless convergence with twenty second and twenty third Corps, an impregnable protection was created on the fortress. 

Because of this, there was no probability for Iron to come back out. 

― Tweet! Tweet! Tweet!

Iron turned sullen as Baepsae chirped loudly round him. It appeared just like the chicken was gloating at his sulking look. 

“Ha… I need to combat too.”
