Under the relentless firepower of the Arcane Cannons.
The puppets continued to advance inch by inch.
Over 8 billion puppets used their bodies as a wall, shielding against the rain of bombardment.
At first, the soldiers of the Moonlight Empire wore confident smiles, believing their enemy was marching to their death.
However, as time passed, they noticed that the enemy didn’t diminish in number.
As they fell, it seemed another one would come at their back.
“Is this what the Field Marshal said?” Johnson muttured gloomily.
He had long noticed that something was wrong with the enemy.
Instead of spreading out and using their numerical advantage, the enemy used the puppets like disposable garbage.
This should have been a suicidal move.
However, after he noticed the enemy’s trump card, Johnson could only conclude that the enemy was stupidly strong.
Immortality!
It’s the indestructible puppets.
No matter how foolish the person commanding such an army, it’s a genius strategy.
Thinking of his army, Johnson couldn’t help but clench his fist.
“Since you want to play this way, then let’s play!”
“Immortal Army Vs. Unlimited Fire Power. Let’s see who will be exhausted first.”
Although he knew that even with various replenishments and treasures, his army couldn’t continue to fire the arcane cannon forever.
Johnson also knew that the price for such an immortality was not cheap either.
…
A month later.
The fight between the immortal puppets and the Moonlight Empire Army continued.
While the fight continued, the believers of the Gods was in the ship, drinking in celebration as victory neared their sight.
“Hahaha, Cheers!”
“Soon, that Moonlight Empire will be trampled under the Light of His Majesty!”
“Tsk, We didn’t have to do anything, and they are already on the verge of collapsing!”
“Heh, no matter who the enemy is, the winner has already long been decided!”
“Cheers to His Majesty!”
“Cheers!”
They cheered, chanting the name of the Emperor instead of their God.
During this time, the influence of Khan already bloomed in their hearts.
The belief that they had in their God gradually faded as time passed.
Sometimes, their hearts couldn’t help but long for the Curse Continent, especially living under the light of Emperor Khan.
During this month-long war, they witnessed vast and unimaginable means of Emperor Khan.
The flow of time seemed to be on a loop, as billions of puppets were destroyed and regenerated every day as if nothing had happened.
From a distance of millions of kilometers, they were now only a hundred thousand kilometers away from the Moonlight Empire.
A few more weeks, and they could tear the Moonlight Empire to pieces.
“Don’t be too complacent; we are only fighting some ordinary people,” Looyt reminded.
Looyt was the only Divine priest who joined this war.
Although he didn’t have combat power, his support capabilities were top-notch.
It can be said that he was an arsenal that could boost an army a thousand times.
Last time, he wasn’t much help during the battle because he too was focused on saving his own life.
The soldiers under his command were also too busy saving themselves to listen to his commands.
Joining this war was so he could avenge himself.
Looyt couldn’t forget the despair of facing the enemy waiting to take his life away.
“You’re too worried, Divine Priest! With His Majesty behind our back, we are invincible!”
“Divine Priest should rest himself so we can quickly guide the lost lambs after we conquer the Moonlight Empire.”
“That’s right. What more can they do to us? Kill us?”
With the guarantee of His Majesty, who can kill them?
They are immortal!
No matter what tricks the enemy had in hand, it was useless.
“Oh, I’m just too worried…” Looyt sighed.
Another stupid teammate was in his midst.
They were already celebrating the victory that they hadn’t even won.
Spouting ignorant words of invincibility.
Although the ability of that Emperor is indeed godlike, it’s not omnipotent.
Who can be so sure that they could be resurrected again after they died?
Who can be so sure that the enemy didn’t have the ability to invalidate this miraculous ability?
Furthermore, had they thought why the seemingly invincible Emperor didn’t fight with them?
Couldn’t the Moonlight Empire be hiding a bigger threat that even he was scared of?
Too many questions didn’t let Looyt relax.
Looking at the small land surrounded by the vast sea.
The tenacious people fighting the seemingly infinite puppets.
Looyt wondered what mysteries were hidden in it.
“Moonlight Empire, just what are you…”
…
In the Moonlight Outpost:
Isabella was processing some documents, coordinating the army like a machine.
Although it seemed like only a hundred billion were fighting at the front.
To support such a force, trillions of people had to work.
Isabella was the core of it all, holding these people together so it wouldn’t collapse.
“A month…”
After surviving for a month, instead of being happy, Isabella frowned a little.
Her goal was to buy time.
Yet under the suicidal method of the enemy.
The distance between them shortened to a mere hundred thousand kilometers.
Just a few more weeks and the enemy would be within an arm’s reach.
Tapping her finger on the table, she fell into thought.
“Now, what should I do…” ᴛhis chapter is ᴜpdated by N(o)vl(F)ire.nt
First, the puppets that Maximus left behind were useless.
Under the billions of the immortal army, a mere millions of puppets would be quickly torn apart.
The mobility of such puppets is a little lagging, so they would be destroyed the moment they were caught.
Those desperate immortal puppets would devour them at a moment’s notice.
As for taking them to wipe out those believers who were partying at the back, Isabella held back in doing so.
She already investigated that those believers were the ones they killed last time.
Seeing them alive and kicking, it’s not hard to guess that the Emperor of the Westle Empire had the capability to resurrect them.
Once she touched those believers, the war would escalate.
Instead of only the puppets, those mad believers would also join the battle.
Even though she could easily wipe them out with immortality, it would only be a waste of time and manpower.
While thinking of a solution, a knock came at the door.
“Come in.”
“Mother!”
“Grandmother!” 2x
“Asha, Lila, Maya, you three are here!”
Isabella, who was originally frowning, smiled upon seeing them.
“How is the Chaotic Sea?”
“Mother, we didn’t find Dad…” Asha pouted.
The three had come to the chaotic sea to find Maximus.
Initially, Asha was confident that with her overpower luck, finding her father would be easy.
However, after years of searching, they found nothing.
It seemed that her father was in another dimension, where her luck didn’t work.
“Don’t worry, you will be able to find him soon,” Isabella smiled, patting Asha’s head.
“By the way, how are you?”
“You look tanned; you must’ve been working hard these years.”
“We’re fine, and this is nothing.”
“Finding Father is the first priority.”
“We also helped Grandmother!” Lila shouted, seeing Asha didn’t mention her due credit.
“Duh! Your charm is useless in the sea. What help did you offer?” Asha muttered, rolling her eyes.
“Hey, I cooked your food, washed the dishes, and… and…” Suddenly, Lila paused.
She just now realized that she was really useless, reduced to a miscellaneous servant.
Her overwhelming beauty that transcended dimensions was useless against those manic, chaotic sea beasts.
“Heh, now you know that you’re useless,” Asha said haughtily.
She had long wanted to suppress this niece of hers.
Although she was pretty lucky and was the favorite, it couldn’t hide the fact that Lila was more beautiful than her.
As a girl, she couldn’t accept that there was someone more beautiful than her, even if it was her niece.
Seeing her deflated look, she couldn’t help but smile.
“But… but…” Lila muttered, thinking of a rebuttal.
“You also didn’t do anything! Even your luck is useless. We also didn’t find Grandfather!” Lila suddenly thought.
At least she helped with the chores, but her aunt Asha hadn’t done anything.
“Oh~” Asha just rolled her eyes at Lila’s incompetent fury.
Meanwhile, Maya just looked at them blankly.
Her aunt and cousin were really a piece of work.
During their journey, Maya was like a nanny who needed to arrange everything.
From daily training to tasks, objectives, and various exchanges.
Without her, the two would probably make the world chaotic even before they find Grandfather.
“Anyway, Mother, what happened to the Empire? It seems that you are at war with someone,” Asha asked.
Before Maximus disappeared, Asha and the two were already playing on the Arcane Continent.
Thus, as soon as they received the news of Maximus’s disappearance, they set off for the chaotic sea.
All the news and events in the Empire were unknown to them.
If it were not for returning, they wouldn’t even know that the Empire was at war.
“Indeed, we are at war with the Westle Empire,” Isabella sighed.
