I BECAME A SKULL IN ANOTHER WORLD WITH THE LABYRINTH MASTER'S WORK.
CHAPTER 54: MEETING AN OLD FRIEND, PORTE
"Dividing the team into 2? We can defeat the enemy faster, but it might hurt our own group. After all, the enemy will become easier to defeat us if we divide the army. Moreover, you only brought 1000 troops, the plan was too risky. I don't doubt your abilities, but we shouldn't underestimate the enemy either" Elos said thinking carefully before answering Lumina's suggestion.
Lumina looked at Elos determinedly "I know what you're worried about, but Lumina didn't underestimate the enemy at all. Lumina could convince master that as long as Lumina brought 1000 warriors then Lumina would bring victory to master, trust Lumina! We must seize 10 enemy cities as quickly as possible before Marquis Nate can realize it, as long as Marquis Nate is aware then they must increase their guard. Therefore, only by using the means of dividing the troops can we capture all the enemy cities as quickly as possible. Sir, give Lumina a chance, I'll make it!".
Elos remained silent for a minute before sighing "Alright, I can let you lead 1000 troops, but remember to always be careful. Besides, you need to retreat as quickly as possible if you lose, I won't get angry if you lose. But I would be angry if I lost a great army leader of mine, do you understand? Your life is more important than getting the enemy city".
"I understand master!", Lumia replied with a happy smile.
Elos nodded "Tomorrow you will lead an army of 1000 undead, although the undead are a little troublesome because we have to keep moving them, but they are very loyal and do not fear death. So you're best suited to bring this army".
"Thank you sir, Lumina won't disappoint your trust" Lumina said.
...----------------...
Elos and his followers did not waste any time, it only took 2 days before they could gather all the troops.
The undead had 3000 troops, but Elos divided 1000 troops into Lumina which left him with only 2000 undead.
Then the army of animal humans that belonged after the lion-man race, scorpion man and snake man rejoined the Animal Man Kingdom was 5500 troops, the army said, they also had an additional 500 free adventurers who were not part of any kingdom. They agreed to join the war, but Elos had to pay them.
Elos did not mind recruiting these adventurers, even Elos paid them to have the adventurers join the order of the soldiers. If not, they will be given the law according to the military rules that Elos made recently, this makes these adventurers should not steal the population they have defeated later or attack residents who are not carrying weapons.
Overall, Elos this time brought 7000 troops which is not a small number. In addition, Elos can continue to make undead troops from the corpses of enemy troops, therefore the number of Elos troops can increase again.
Actually Elos thought of recruiting the undead army from the Deathly Forest again, but when Elos tried it some time ago then Elos realized that he could not move further into the forest.
There seemed to be an extremely powerful death aura, as long as Elos remained stubbornly gone then that death aura could drive Elos crazy.
But Elos knew that if he increased his strength again then Elos could go further into the forest of death, even searching for the undead king who might actually be there.
Elos stood in front of all the soldiers again, he wore a useful rank 7 robe to hide his identity. While the rank 9 robes that Elos wore before, he had given them to Zeyi to give to the Intel Ministry soldiers.
Standing in front of the entire army, Elos drew his sword while pointing towards Hiam City in the distance "The whole army is departing! We will take down and take Hiam City! From today on, we will destroy the power of man in this world! We animal or undead humans though can also have a prosperous life in this world, we will show all those things to those humans!".
"Aaaaa!", the soldiers took up their weapons and shouted excitedly like Elos, then they all moved towards Hiam City.
The faces of these soldiers were filled with fighting spirit, after all as Elos said that they had always been defeated by the humans who made them have to live in this barren land. But since the arrival of Elos, the city has always won the war and the city has become more prosperous, causing the soldiers to have considerable confidence in Elos. At least they were sure that as long as they followed Elos, then they would definitely win.
As the soldiers began to move, Elos walked towards Lumina "What about you? Which city will be attacked?".
"Master, I've decided from yesterday that I will attack Ruher City first, then seize Leit City. So you only need to capture the other 8 cities, our 2 troops will regroup in Leit City. How?", asked Lumina.
"You sure you can beat those 2 cities?", asked Elos a little hesitating.
Do not see Elos who captured 8 cities while Lumina was only in charge of capturing 2 cities, but the defense or soldiers in Ruher City and Leit City were the best defense cities owned by Marquis Nate, except for the Nate Capital which is currently unknown to its power.
As for Hiam City and the others, they had weak defenses as well as his soldiers as well. Even Hiam City was only protected by a wooden fence, so Elos was confident of being able to win.
"Master don't have to worry! I can take all these cities in just 3 days at most. Take care of yourself sir, I definitely brought victory to master!", Lumina said confidently.
After which, Lumina left with her soldiers. Elos did not stop Lumina because he looked very confident, this made Elos interested in whether Lumina could really seize the 2 most powerful cities or not.
Elos turned to look at Riona who was already waiting behind him "Then we should also leave, our old friend Porte must be very surprised at our arrival!".
Hearing Elos' words, Riona slightly smiled coldly "Porte might be very happy to see us coming to see him".
Thousands of troops were moving towards Hiam City as well as other territories belonging to Marquis Nate, while the Marquis was currently completely unaware that the enemy was already moving to attack his territory.
More precisely, the entire people in Ray Kingdom would never think that Elos who had less troops had the courage to attack Marquis Nate.
