“He ca in a big army… Great!” Just from the look of the vanguard, I could tell he brought a very large army here. I waited for half an hour before he ca to my chariot, leading a group of ten thousand elites.
“We finally t, my dear bro,” once he boarded the chariot, he ca to give a greeting. He grabbed my two arms with his, making feel the pressure he exerted unintentionally.
But I wasn’t the old weak self. I had my cultivation already opened. It wasn’t as high as his, but that gave a slight backing against his strength.
“It was hectic,” I said with a warm smile, “are you ready?”
“At your order.”
He moved to stand by my right while I decided to keep my boys down below. The army size this ti was really massive, exceeding millions.
[Let’s move out] I sent to all of them before turning to him, “let’s start rolling then.”
“Go,” he just said a single word before his elites spread the word. In the next hour, I stayed behind while watching the grand army spreading its wings all over the world up front.
“Where are we heading first?” he asked when my chariot started moving.
“We are going to scout the area up front,” I said, “we will go to Frankfort city, but we might get ambushed along the way.”
“By whom?” he asked in doubt, and I shrugged.
“I dunno… Perhaps… Everyone?”
“I don’t care,” he harrumphed, “my paragon started to give a cold shoulder recently. The words coming from his close circle says he isn’t as excited to work with as before. I want to prove him wrong here.”
Wryly wasn’t like Fang, that dude was always direct and straight. I nodded in understanding, looked at the horizon while my chariot crossed most of the grand army down below.
In less than half an hour, we passed the frontlines of our army. From there, there was only my chariot and nothing else.
The world was in a state of ruins and desolation like what I used to see. According to the map I had, I went towards that triangular area first.
On the way there, I passed over many towns and a few cities. Yet I didn’t care about these. After all with my current army, dealing with the forces was a breath.
But that also made know the news would spread fast to every camp here. I hoped the enemies would place more importance over ending their current battles than coming for my head.
I just wanted to slip through this long road until reaching my desired target. If I got distracted in the middle, I wouldn’t only lose ti but I’d also be strangled against a force or two, giving the opportunity for more to join later on.
Just as I flew for almost an hour, I reached that place.
There was a city there, one that stood with many ruins, portals, and castles. I could see many races in there, and they seed to have reached an agreent.
They weren’t fighting, seemingly leaving the fight for the big nas of their races elsewhere.
This city was the last bordering city of West Virginia. Up to north of it there was Ohio’s lower border, separated from West Virginia by a river.
[Bad news! Bad news!]
Just as I reached this city, the first thing I got was a distressing ssage from Fang.
Fang was moving already behind us, leaving a distance in between our two forces.
[What?] I hated it when he brought bad news in such a way. Dude, if you had anything to say, just tell it directly. For a mont there I felt he was enjoying bringing such bad news to .
[You are a hot cake bro, all races are breaking free from their fights and going as fast as they could towards you] what he said made startled.
I expected a force or two to co at , but it seed I jinxed myself when I said to Wryly that we’ll wait for everyone.
[From which direction?] I knew there were four hot zones in the big map. So which zone was coming at right now was the question.
[Till now the northern forces fighting at Michigan are coming at you. I also got the news that the ones fighting at Wisconsin are also preparing to co at you if you managed to survive this]
[We’ll survive]
[Don’t group with the likes of you. You are like a bad news magnet dude!]
[Just take a detour] I didn’t comnt on his coward decision, [I’ll handle this]
[How?]
[I wanted soone to keep certain people busy] I evilly smirked, [and they just offered themselves to like this]
I then closed the chat with Fang, ignoring what he said next. I knew he wouldn’t say anything new, and would just keep asking about my next move.
[We are going south] I sent this to everyone before turning to Wryly and said, “order your boys to go south with my forces.”
“South? Why?” his eyes shone brightly when he heard that. This dude was really a war lover, one who would act like crazy in front of big battles.
I briefed him about what happened while his elites distributed the word. As I left him burning in desire to fight, I took out my staff and marked this location.
“Make sure our forces are moving fast,” I gave this order to him before spreading it to my boys.
We had to catch up speed if we wanted to outrun the incoming armies.
According to the big map I had, these forces had to pass through Ohio entirely to co to .
And by going south, I entered Kentucky and placed another state in between the two of us.
“Aren’t we going too close to those Hectors?” Even if Wryly loved wars, he wasn’t this fool to seek a fight against such a deadly enemy.
