Four armies would work in four different directions while the fifth would act as support, moving to aid any place needing reinforcements.
There were two free armies, one led by Sara and the other was led by me.
I felt like Legend was behind the idea of placing Sara on top of a single army on her own. And that army was like an independent, all offensive, all crazy about fighting army.
I could already imagine what it would be like when Sara started her work. I'd only see the dust behind her army, and try my best to keep her safe.
If she was going to fight the locusts or Silences alone, then it wouldn't have been this bad.
However the fiends were already flocking the entire world, and it wasn't guaranteed for them to not interfere to stop her.
"We are going to ask you to use the bubble tactic," and all of sudden, Isac said such weird words.
"What bubble tactic?" I asked in confusion, while my mind was still attracted to the difficulties Sara was going to face.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"That thing you used by summoning shields and warriors inside," she said and I got her meaning at once.
"You want to nullify the locusts early on? Good move," I nodded before warning them, "but these locusts don't follow any logic. So they might be focused on the bubbles, but they also can move at any forces near them."
"At least we can remove a good part of them," Legend said, and I felt like this dude was behind such bubble tactic names and suggestions.
"I agree," I nodded before adding, "but sending Sara out… Are you sure? It's Sara, y'know…"
I couldn't find the right words to describe what I had in mind at this moment. However I was sure the two in front of me got what I meant perfectly fine.
"Don't worry, she is more than capable of handling such a situation," Isac said as if she grew up with Sara or something.
"Ok," I knew the toll of keeping her safe and extracting her from any bad situation lay on my shoulders, "what about me then?"
I got to lead the second independent army in their entire plan. And if they expected me to do anything besides taking care of the fiends, then they were quite delusional.
"Just take care of the fiends," Legend said, "if these fiends acted freely, then it'll be quite bad for all of us."
"I see…" I knew it might seem a hard task, but I already was preparing myself to shoulder it all, "but don't expect any help from me during such a battle. Dealing with the fiends will take most of my power. Besides, using the offensive attacks of my shields will also endanger the forces outside the shields."
"We know," Legend said, "you can use it after giving us a hint, ok?"
"Sure," if that was easy to do in the middle of a hot and wide expanding battle like the one we were going to have, then it'd be great.
But I knew doing such a thing was quite hard and nearly impossible. Even I wouldn't be sure to use such a method and take away all my soulers and warriors back inside the shields in time.
"Don't expect too much out of this," I said in warning, "anyway, let's wait until we see what lies down there for us first."
"When can we move then?" Legend seemed quite impatient. I couldn't tell if he grew up like a war addict like Sara or if he just wanted to see if his plan would work or not.
"We can move after clearing all the area here," I wouldn't take a single step forward before arming up all my soulers and reapers with the gears from these fiends here.
Without the addition of all these gears here, trying to take down a big zone down there and have the ability to secure it would be greatly reduced.
"Fine," Legend seemed to be struggling, "but we need to have our armies before that. We need to arrange them, select the leaders, put out plans,..." he started to narrate tons of things related to how he meticulously plans for things in big battles.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"I know," I interrupted him, "I'll get many warriors out for you to lead. How about this, each general will have ten million each?"
"Full state warriors? Not enough," Legend shook his head and started to bargain with me.
"Fine! I'll give each twenty-five million warriors, hopefully that'll be enough," I didn't like making a fuss about such a thing, "I'll take warriors up there, leave enough stat crystals for them."
"Thanks lord," he smiled and I felt like this dude was learning to act scheming and evil from someone. Was it the jumper? He was a good candidate indeed.
As I decided to do that, I stopped my current moves and moved back to the top ground.
And then I started to take out warriors in large batches, without even caring about their count.
I kept doing this for an entire day, and during which the other generals seemed to get the news from these two and showed up. Even that jumper made his presence in the last few hours before I got done.
"Arrange things here yourselves," I was eager to return to collect my precious bones and so I just left after taking out tons of stat crystals.
And then I spent three more days absorbing bones.
When I got done, I knew another task was still waiting for me, one that would bring me tons of happiness.
Seeing all the mountains of gears waiting for me made me smile.
My boys collected these gears randomly and they weren't arranged in sets. But I knew this was going to change with the magical effect of my system.
I simply went towards all the mountains inside the huge number of my shields, and started to collect them fast.
