When I looked at their faces, I could clearly see how eager and ready to fight they were.

“Listen up, you are in the middle of the enemy’s deep lines,” after just a few minutes, hundreds of thousands of soldiers appeared from the portal, and many more were still coming.

I held my horn and started addressing them. I briefed them about the situation of this entire war, where this place was, and what their missions were.

In general, they just needed to press forward, kill anyone they faced without any reservation. They were going to handle the ongoing battle on the surface, expanding its range to reach further places, and try to take control over the entire defences here.

I knew before coming here I planned to let these five armies take control of the places we already cleared here. But plans were made to get broken, and I didn’t care about what they had in their minds before coming here.

They were soldiers, and killing was their way of life. I kept narrating everything to any new batches, before deciding to leave a group behind to educate the newly arrived ones about the current situation.

In one hour, the entire battle here changed drastically after the joining of my five armies. Before their arrival, the Hescos were racing against time, fighting against my warriors, and trying to get to me.

But after the arrival of my forces, they faced great difficulty in doing that. In fact, the Hescos almost lost all the encounters with my newly arrived forces.

They got pushed back, while the path was littered with endless dead bodies. The fight kept expanding without an order, and it was now my time to add more fuel to the fire.

I jumped over my chariot and moved so fast towards the frontline. I passed in no time over there, and kept flying forward.

After flying for a few minutes, I stopped. It was enough distance from my coming forces from the portal.

“Thundering Might!” I didn’t hesitate and used my shield skill. The moment the shield appeared, I didn’t stop there and started to move fast towards another direction.

In the middle of all this, I took out enough warriors to fill up this shield.

After the upgrade of my pillar, I didn’t need to worry over my shields anymore. They could sustain themselves for a long time without the need for my intervention.

Not to mention after that scary explosion from before, the Hescos crazy attacks ceased. The only danger that lurked here came from the ground forces that survived this attack.

The remaining Hescos surviving troops were already so far away from here. They’d need a long time to come, and they had to cross such hard to trespass terrain.

That meant my forces here were safe for a long time. Not to mention the Hescos generals hurried their plans and started invading the underground tunnels and forts.

They had to send tons of forces there to do their desired plan. And that meant they wouldn’t be able to muster lots of troops here to threaten my forces.

But that didn’t matter to me. I’d never miss this golden chance.

From the beginning I realised how deadly this trap was here. If I focused on gaining control over the underground forts and layers, then I’d be doomed.

Ruling over such a complicated defensive pit was pointless. The forces who had the higher ground would crush those who were lower to them.

So from the first moment I realised this deadly flaw. If I played according to the enemy plots, and focused on taking control of that pit, then I’d end up losing too much without gaining anything.

The end result would be my defeat. And thus I started to shift my gaze upon another point, the surface.

pA n,dan0ve1.c0m When I first came I got bewildered by how massive the enemy preparations here were. But that didn’t stop me.

At this point, I could honestly say that I did a good job. All that I needed was to flip the coin and let my forces stall the Hescos main bulk armies down at the pit instead of the opposite.

The enemy must have planned to pin my forces deep down the pit layers and stop us from coming up here. Yet the enemy fell at last in his own trap, ending up sending most of their forces to the pit hole and losing too much of their forces to stop me.

That was why I asked Sara to try her best and stall for time down there. The longer she bought time for me the better chances I got to control this entire defensive zone on the surface.

Winning this war could be achieved by different ways, including killing me or exterminating my forces. But for me, I could simply take control of the surface defences, and then this war would be my victory.

Even if things went south down at the pit and my forces got crushed by the Hescos, I’d still win if I ended up securing the surface first.

Taking the surface defences as a base, I could easily harass the Hescos remnants inside the pit and clear the entire place of these hostile foes.

That was why I totally ignored defending that pit fiercely and instead shifted my full attention on conquering the surface here.

I had to admit, things went out of my plans. If not for the pleasant surprise of my pillar growing out of control and releasing such a deadly attack, I’d have to say my entire situation here would have been helpless.

I threw away all these useless thoughts and focused on forming more shields, scattering more warriors, and even left enough stat crystals for them to get strengthened.

The shields proved to be durable, able to sustain any attack coming at them from the direction of the Hescos faraway forces and didn’t shatter.

The Hescos’ leaders once spotted my movements, they tried their best to stop me from deploying more shields.

They seemed to mistake my shields to be like before. Just before I deployed twenty shields down, the attacks came fiercely from the far distance and rained down on my shields.

But that didn’t result in anything worthy to mention.
