YM778.TV Chapter 716 Arrival
*Swoosh* *Boom*
"Damn, I need support! Shoot twice here!!" One of the Ten Emperors was unable to hold back any longer and shouted
"We have run out of pearls."
"Liar, we still have at least 500 of them!! That officer shouted again
His colleague closest to him repulsed another group attack and then replied to him again, "This exactly means that it has run out. We can no longer go out to collect more. 500 energy pearls will be enough to fire a few shots and then get out of here in case of emergency. Or do you want to exhaust all the pearls and get stuck here forever!!"
"...FUUUCCKKK!!!" That officer shouted again and then went back to throwing attacks randomly, "What the hell is going on here!? Come here and die already you little bastards! AAHHH!!!"
Another three months have passed since Robin met Holak, and almost a year has passed since the Vanguard team arrived---
None of them knows what is really happening anymore.
After the locals began to gather and besiege this city, something strange happened. At first, the army besieging them exceeded fifty thousand, then their numbers decreased to forty thousand, then thirty, then~ then~~
This is not because the siege army is being killed quickly and the dead are not compensated. On the contrary, they almost face a completely new army every few days! But these new armies come in smaller numbers, then they leave and another army comes after them in smaller numbers, and so on~ And they notice that for some reason, whenever members of their team die, part of the local army withdraws. There is always a very delicate balance between the attack and defense parties so neither of them can win nor be defeated!
Currently, including the commander, only the ten Martial Emperors remain from the Vanguard team, and another 20 soldiers, who are the crew operating the spacecraft and they do not leave it under any circumstance.
Two months ago, Commander Seagal had had enough and tried to escape from the city. He took everyone and pushed their way to another unknown area, but they found 40,000 soldiers armed to the teeth in golden looking their way and attacked them with full force. The commander had the choice of either using the spacecraft to leave the planet or returning to the city and continuing this play... In the end, he chose to return to the city.
It is clear that they are being used in the city as training dummies, and he even noticed several times people coming to watch them from afar and then leaving as if they were watching a circus show, but they cannot leave!
If they left, how would they explain the loss of all those elite soldiers to the command center?! At least if he remained in the city until the backup came, he would tell them that they valiantly uprooted this headquarters from the locals and get rewarded for it.
This plan was boosted by the fact that the local army is reduced to only 2000, changing every day. They are all within the Dragon or Sagehood Realm, fully armed with golden equipment, and they attack in high coordination, but they also do not try to penetrate the city or kill a specific Martial Emperor among them. They act as if it were a real training session on how to deal with the Martial Emperors!
The feeling of humiliation was fatal, Seagal and his officers could no longer bear it. The decision to withdraw and leave was presented every day and was no longer closed immediately as usual, but every time they got back to fighting again... It is better for them to be insulted here than to withdraw and be treated as losers, or worse, be tried as traitors.
"Boss, we have detected a signal! we have detected a signal!!" At this moment, a strong warning was issued from the spacecraft
"What?!" Seagal looked up in shock, then gathered all his strength and used two attacks to push his opponents back, then he rushed towards the gate of the spacecraft with a powerful jump, "What did you say? Has support arrived?!"
The soldier gave a military salute, "Yes, sir, we have picked up the automatic identification signal from several spacecraft. This means that the fleet has already entered the planet\'s sphere!"
"Hahaha finally, this is great!!" Seagal grabbed the soldier by the shoulders and lifted him enthusiastically, then put him on the ground and shouted down toward the city, "Guys, your wait is over, finally the---"
In the middle of his call, he seemed to remember something, so he paused and looked up at the sky, then turned back to face the soldier, "...Where is the fleet? We would have noticed by now that dozens of ships had entered the airspace above us, hey... If it was a false report, I will kill you."
"How could I lie about something like this, Boss? The entire fleet has successfully passed throw the atmosphere, and they have even been stationary for a while. It seems that they all landed safely!"
"They landed? Where did they land!?" Seagal grabbed the soldier\'s neck, feeling like his mind was about to explode!
The one who went to call for support was his close friend Bandal, and he would certainly tell them about their location. They have also been issuing distress signals for months that can be monitored by any spacecraft belonging to the Great Serpent Empire. How is it possible that the fleet entered the atmosphere and even landed, and they were ignored!?
"Arghh come on boss, my neck hurts!! According to the signals, it is clear that they are from the Fourteenth Fleet, leader. They are followers of General Sully, you should know what that means, and as for their location... Half of them landed in the Eastern region, and the other half in the Western region."
