1633 The End Game
It seemed what I discovered at the central continent belonging to Karoline’s territory wasn’t an exception. Karoline simply focused on killing, fighting armies and crushing them, controlling an entire continent before moving her forces to a new place to fight at.
She never cared about building anything, never left behind any forces to keep a continent under her control. So it was expected that a large part of her supposedly controlled continents would get lost and return under the control of the combined arms armies.
What was the point in doing all this? Aside from just fighting for killing, there was no point at all in doing such useless tactics.
If I was in her shoes, if another race was in her shoes, then after controlling a single continent, we’d have left behind forces to safeguard it from falling again under the enemies’ hands.
But it seemed like Karoline never cared about any of that. All she wanted was to just kill more forces, and then jump towards another battlefield to kill more forces.
This was insane! Literally insane! But this wasn’t just the only weird part about her forces and movements.
She got a weird source to gain tons of fresh forces every now and then. No matter how her armies got severely hit, new armies always appeared to crush her enemies.
On top of that, these armies were all made out of different races, not just from one. Yet she didn’t have a single human there, as if she didn’t get any access to my and her race or something.
As the entire situation now looked a lot better for my forces on the surface, but looked more difficult on the ground, I knew I had to select my next target carefully.
Getting advantage for a long time to just mess things up at the end wasn’t going to help anyone. In the path of victory and defeat, there would be a point where things would be determined afterwards.
My enemies weren’t simple. They were just waiting for a single chance to turn tables around. And I’d be a fool if I gave them such a chance.
“Trying to act reckless and haughty, going towards Karoline right now is wrong…” I knew working by my earlier plans wasn’t going to do any good at all.
I got the upper hand after all. Even if my enemies got stat crystals from an unknown source, even when they merged forces together, they weren’t a challenge for me.
But if I went to meet Karoline, I felt like something big would happen. So it was better to deal a deadly blow towards the various forces first, before dealing with Karoline later on.
As for how I’d deal with these forces and races, I decided to look for the future of my kingdom. I already got my revenge against the Berserkers and Selvators, entirely wiping these two races out.
I knew after ending this apocalypse, these two races wouldn’t vanish. They still had tons of normal people who were going to join my kingdom. I didn’t plan to hold these normal people the same sins their armed forces suffered.
As for the forces of other races, it was better to add them to my side. And that meant it was time to use my technique and cube again, time to add tons of forces to my side.
I’m going to start attacking the coalition army of different races I sent this message over to Lily, Make sure the different armies are surrounding these forces and pinning them down. Leave the rest to me
Are you sure? They combined their forces together, and they are building tons of defences as we speak
You know that nothing can stop me when I’m serious and I was truly serious this time, Just make sure Karoline and her armies wouldn’t get to make trouble in the middle of all this
Are you scared of her perhaps? Don’t tell me that, hahahaha!
I’m just acting cautious I felt as if she got amused by what I said, She gives me a bad vibe
Speaking about that, I met her once… But she didn’t show any sign of being human
You did? You didn’t tell me…
It happened while you were away working on these bombs. I wanted to see what she looked like, get a direct look at her and see what she was made of
And?
She gave me a bad feeling, like… Like she won’t stop until she turns the entire world into hell
I also have the same feeling I felt more pressure about Karoline when I learnt about Lily’s viewpoint. Lily wasn’t just a normal general, she was someone I truly respected and admired.
If she said such a thing, then the vague doubts I got before were indeed true. And that meant the end of the clash between me and Karoline wouldn’t end by anything else but the death of one of two of us.
Sigh! It was such a damn curse that I suffered from. But for a reason, I felt like many things would get revealed after meeting with her. And by defeating her, lots of things would also change.
I didn’t know why I was feeling like this, but I threw all this behind my back and looked again at the map. Then I started to arrange things over with Lily, planning the next moves and where I’d start my grand attack and where I’d move from there onwards.
Then it came down to the last war that’d put an end to all this, let the end game start!
I selected a continent that wasn’t that far actually from Karoline’s main forces. I aimed to see how she’d act, and also that place was the densest place filled with enemy forces.
If I hit that cluster of five continents and emptied them from enemy forces, then by numbers the enemies would lose around ten percent of their total forces. But in real value, they’d lose around fifty percent of their total fighting power.
