BXBX NOVEL Chapter 154 "We're doomed"
Chapter 154 "We're doomed"
[Did his majesty just declare war on the alliance... I thought he didn't consider them a threat]
[Are you stupid?]
[Bruv, the goal is to conquer the entire region... The Human Alliance hinders that]
[Does that mean I finally get to use my powers in this world?]
[You're just looking for who you show off to]
[Okay that's enough... Before you all descend down that rabbit hole, which of us would act as the King's representative]
[That is a very good question]
[Would he chose that on his own]
[Yes but we need to narrow the options for him, there are nearly six thousand of us, he can't go through all of us quickly enough]
[That makes sense]
[Then I nominate Governor [Jerry], he seems to be the most qualified one amongst us]
With the comment came thousands of other nominees. Kingsley had no idea such a thing was going on instead he focused on setting up an administrative staff for the new land.
He now officially had need for his governors because his soldiers didn't only conquer lords during their quest.
There were also several small villages within the region that were conquered as well which also added to the empire's population as a whole.
Now he needed to form a true government that will rule over these spaces to ensure not only dominance over the region but also to create a more powerful foothold in the region.
....
The next day,
In the early hours of the morning, several lords could be seen gathered together in newly fitted armor but their tattered clothes remained.
"...In a shocking turn of events, he declared war on us. That means we all have to fight however the good thing is that he, himself will not be involved in the battle, we all saw him toy with the lady from yesterday" Lady Alina said with a genuine smile for the first time since this war began.
The battle was broadcast for all to see and even she could tell that throughout the battle, the opposition king didn't take it seriously. It was as though he was just testing out his skills.
"You have all been fitted with SS-rank armour, your weapons too are of the same rank, I don't care what they will throw at us, I know it isn't up to this rank" Li Ye announced
Only he knew the sort of work he had done to get those armour. No matter how lucky one was, they would never be able to find SS-ranked armour and weapons just lying around in the region.
It was all his talent and thankfully after a whole night of upgrading, he hit multiple critical and boom! he had more than ten SS-ranked armours and weapons
"However, in case they are beyond that, remember you were chosen because of your long range skills and logistics type skills, you are not to engage in close combat, leave that to the troops" Alina said to warn them.
They had a higher chance of winning, at least by what she saw. However, even she couldn't be too sure that they would win.
"If it were possible, I believe that it would be better of we try to level up as much as possible" A lord added in
"That is indeed a good idea but as you can see, we have no more time" Alina replied as she pointed towards the glowing portal before them.
"Ready your swords and may the good lord guide us" Alina prayed as she pointed her sword towards the portal and the alliance troops began marching into the portal.
The troops were a simple mixture of their strongest troops. All troop species were not only SSS-ranked but they also stood at the end of the path.
This was a battle that the Deus Empire had almost no chance of winning... at least based on what she knew. The troops that were used to conquer all were all secondary or conquered troops.
With that knowledge, it was obvious that while there will be some SSS-ranked troops amongst them after all they had more than two thousand governors but there was also no way they could match the full might of the Alliance.
Alina watched as all the troops entered the portal that had widened to accommodate them. Following them were the selected five lords before she stepped into the portal.
Five lords were to represent the alliance but the Alliance leader is still required to appear meaning there was no escape for this battle for her in the first place. However, thankfully their king wouldn't participate.
As soon as she entered the portal, she was greeted by its massively oppressive atmosphere. The dark sky and the soil that looked as though it was blood soaked,
"Who knew existing on the battlefield alone would be a struggle?" a lord commented as he chuckled before assuming his position on the line up.
She would disagree if it weren't true. She could feel some sort of burden on her mind that weighed her down greatly.
None of them had noticed this in the battle between the king and the lady. The two had bore the weight as though it was nothing while fighting for their lives.
"They're here" Alina noted as they all looked to see
Looking up, they all saw a portal open on the far end of the battlefield several thousand square kilometres away.
Out of it came six people, humans. Immediately accessing their strength. All of them immediately smiled knowing that they had the upper hand.
However behind them, they could soldier after soldier matching out. Out of the small portal came several thousand soldiers.
"We're doomed" a lord beside her said
"Plan B" Alina announced
