Lord of the Truth

Chapter 982: Support arrives



"ROOOAAARRR~~" One of the nine beasts next to Durger raised his head to the sky and let out a loud roar.

That beast looked like a wolf and its aura was undoubtedly the strongest after Durger, especially when it came to the aura of bloodshed and tyranny, so with that single roar, he was able to move the beast hordes forward again after they had lost momentum with the arrival and stability of the human army.

"Keep the line!" Caesar shouted loudly, then he himself headed to the worst point in the Death Flame Wall and closed it with a waterfall of black flames, reaping dozens of lives, "... Damn it!"

But the situation did not improve much, until this moment Durger and the nine beasts did not interfere and left the front lines of the beasts to fight freely and towards their certain death, the speed of beast deaths remained somewhat low in this way, but after two days of battle it was slowly accumulating to a mind-blowing number, and there did not seem to be any purpose behind this strange strategy, Caesar just went with the flow.

That strategy that Durger followed continued even after Robin used the Great Space Portal in the Imperial Palace Military Square to send army batches to help, the only thing that changed was the momentum of the beasts that calmed down with the exit of all those enemies.

At first, Caesar did not understand why his father sent the army into such a hopeless situation, he was only trying to scare Durger a little with the death flames perhaps it would go back, and if not, then would just buy some time for his father to think about something.

The number of beasts was simply mind-blowing, 200 thousand soldiers or even 2 million would not make a difference here, on the contrary, it would make their escape even more difficult!

The army of the True Beginning Empire had no experience in fighting beasts and now they found themselves facing those numbers, and with every passing hour, the number of beasts increased more in the back, what exactly was His Excellency thinking?

Perhaps the only good thing about all of this was that the number of beasts killed increased, producing a massive amount of life force in the air which Richard gladly devoured, and the number of energy crystals collected by the Shadow Swords was also accumulating very quickly, in this battle alone they had collected crystals equal to the empire's current stockpile!

Of course, all these are side issues, not reasons for Robin to bet the lives of all these soldiers, however, since his father thought this was the solution, Caesar did not wait, immediately began to organize the soldiers between defense and attack and made the best use of the Draco Corps in particular.

Within a few hours, he was able to dig several trenches behind the Death Flame Wall and made a fortress using the soldiers available to him, which gave the warlords and martial emperors on his side a chance to catch their breath and were left for emergencies.

But now the roar of that huge wolf moved hundreds of thousands of beasts forward at the same time, the gaps that Caesar left for the beasts to pass through and intensified the defenses in them began to collapse, he could literally see the soldiers being crushed under the hooves and feet helplessly, the defenses that he spent almost a day preparing collapsed in more than one place!

*Baaam* One of the other nine beasts began to move personally, if he did not participate himself, it was clear that he would at least roar as well.

"Richard!" When Caesar saw a number of other gaps expanding, he had no choice but to look behind him and shout at his heavy weapon.

"Understood." Richard slowly stood up and cracked his neck left and right, the immense life energy he had gathered over the past two days began to move throughout his body in preparation for combustion.

*BZZZT*

"Hmm?" Caesar turned towards the source of the voice he knew well, a large portal had opened behind the army lines and more soldiers dressed in gold began to emerge!

"From where...?" Caesar straightened up completely, his face showing a suspicious expression, his father had already sent him all the available soldiers, but his question didn't last long.

"Hello- Supreme General, you look busy!" One of the people coming out of the portal was Victoria, who approached Caesar with a smile on her face, "I was told that you needed some help here, it seems like I got here just in time."

"Victoria? Didn't I send you to Planet S3?!" A bit of anger appeared on Caesar's face.

"His Excellency sent orders that if I complete taking over the planet assigned to me, I must gather exactly 60% of my assigned army and head to Planet Poison Rock immediately." She then waved lightly at her army, "Here they are, two warlords, 30 martial emperors, and 30,000 soldiers at your command."

"You have already completed taking over S3?" Caesar let out a relieved sigh

"yes, the planet is empty with barely any human locals and they all work in the mines, all I had to do was hunt down the remnants of the Great Serpent Empire, and there weren't that many anyway because there is no local population to oppress," Victoria then shook her head, "That's why I didn't want one of the S-ranked planets, it was too easy!"

"You just make it look easy, how can hunting down thousands of remnants is an easy task? Anyway, it's good that you already cleared S3... but...?" Caesar frowned.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

His questions about his father's plan increased again, why are soldiers being piled up on this front?!

*Bzzzzt* Once again the sound of a space portal emerging caught Caesar's attention immediately

*Bam* *Bam* *Bam* Rows after rows of golden soldiers came out of the portal in a defensive formation, and General Cassia Levan came out with them, "Greeting to the

Supreme General, I have come to help on His Excellency's orders."

"...!?" Opening his mouth wide, Caesar no longer knew what he understood anymore, he just nodded and started shouting, "Victoria take the left flank, Cassia take the right flank, use your armies as temporary support to close the gaps then let them retreat!"

"Yes!" The two girls received the orders and immediately started

"...Father, I hope you know what you are doing." Caesar clenched both his hands tightly, in front of all those hordes of beasts, all the reinforcements Robin could send were like throwing sand into the sea, what could he possibly do against a handful of beasts?

Even if they did somehow manage to gather sufficient soldiers to take this battle head-on, will it be worth it?

There is a reason why Pythor spread his huge army on 9 planets and even sent them into the middle planetary belt, but not one day did he stop and say I would rather obliterate those beasts that live under my nose!

Victory or defeat in front of these mindless things was the same, a waste of good men!

*Bzzzz* While Caesar was distracted, another portal opened and more soldiers started

pouring in.
