Chapter 125

It was one of his great generals who asked this question. Froki took the role of answering his question by responding at once:

"You will make full out free attacks on the back of these monsters. Once you manage to create gaps in their ranks, then you can gather the soldiers at each gap and widen it."

This was the strategy he formulated at this moment. As his lord did, he improvised too. Ibro felt this strategist would play a huge role in the future by helping him with his advice.

Once he finishes he gives the order for the planned attack to happen. 4 armies were formed immediately and then each moved towards a specific target.

At the trapped zones, a bloody war was occurring there. At first, the monster's army surprise attack had caused great casualties to these armies.

The most losses occurred at the brutal battles of these armies' necks. When monsters managed to completely surround them, each army commander used the lethal weapon that Ibro gave them.

Each one of them assembled in a few minutes a huge catapult. These 6 catapults Ibro had bought before from the market on 2 occasions.

The emergence of these defensive beasts coupled with the large number of runes made these battles equally balanced battles. Monsters didn't have time to adapt as a large army appeared suddenly hitting their undefended backs.

The battle turned into a massacre. Ibro's personal army had very low levels as they didn't participate in the battles till now. But their sudden appearance and their surgical strike played a major role in disturbing the monsters' lines.

The monsters tried to fight back but their lines were already disorganized and the chaos was prevailing on the whole battlefield. They couldn't even defend themselves without fighting back.

They started to flee one after another. That wave of escape was the turning point of this battle. Ibro's personal army began to kill as many monsters as they could to level up in a crazy way.

As soon as these four armies got freed from the monster's trap, they started to move to the remaining two trapped armies. Their huge numbers and strong momentum caused the rapid collapse of the monster's armies.

The next battles were so easy to end as the monster's morale began to crumble with the loud cheer that echoed in the battlefield from the human armies.

Ibro didn't join the killing feast with his personal army, as he took it and moved rapidly heading towards the enemy's commander position.

When he reached there he found the monsters' commander and his army were engaged with his soldiers. Every time the commander tried to escape, the great general would use many runes to trap him.

The battle was very intense and nearly all lines of human and monster armies were intercepted. It was a chaotic battle which depended entirely on strength.

Ibro's appearance came to change this bloody situation. He led his army to totally surround this battlefield. This battle was over. Ibro then said loudly:

"Surrender yourself and I will pardon your life."

He was talking to the enemy's commander. He was in desperate need of information.

If this commander was smart he would choose this chance to live, but this commander was loyal and stupid.

"I refuse to betray my master. I would die here rather than selling him."

"As you wish. Froki, order the boys to kill everyone. Leave none alive."

Ibro's voice was high enough for the commander and his surrounding monsters to heat him. Ibro hoped to instigate the revolutionary desire for life inside these monsters so they would arrest their commander and give it to him.

Ibro was disappointed as till the last moment of this battle, all the monsters here tried their best to protect their commander. That was a very admirable loyalty, but it made Ibro very frustrated.

He wanted to gather some Intel about his enemy. Why was it so hard on him to get such info? The aftermath of this battle was simple. The monster's army tried to escape but Ibro's army started a hot pursuit till they killed all these monsters.

The total number of killed monsters exceeded 600 million monsters. These monsters' meat was very delicious, so the army started to gather these monsters' bodies and began to move them towards the two openings to the surface.

At this time, Ibro started to link all the gems that belonged to this battle. He got the gems of 32 areas which created a buffer zone before and also additional 35 areas from the defeated monster's armies.

This huge battle that lasted nearly two days had yielded a great won for Ibro. His losses also were big. 15 million troops at least lost their lives in this war.

The remaining had risen in level and the lowest had reached level 15. While Ibro was busy collecting his treasure boxes trophies from all these areas, Froki was responsible for handling the post-war situation.

In his opinion, they had managed to get a big victory with small losses. His initial estimates of losses were much higher than this number even in his most optimistic scenarios.

That change was caused by his young lord and his crazy fearless personality. He admired such lord. He hoped he would continue to grow up and develop into a mighty emperor.

Post-war arrangements took nearly another day. Ibro was very excited with his gains. In this war beside the huge meat mountains of these monsters, he gained 670 treasure boxes and was much closer to achieving 99 areas quest.

By the end of the day, while Ibro was resting in a small tent, a messenger came from the surface battlefield carrying bad news.

"My lord, I'm sorry to interrupt your sleep."

Ibro was awakened with this distressed voice of Froki. Ibro stood up immediately and left the narrow tent while asking in doubt:

"What's wrong? Are these monsters crazy enough to attack us?"

"No my lord. I have received bad news that I needed to tell you immediately."

Ibro's mind reached to the one logical conclusion so he asked in worry:

"What happened to Mamor?"

Froki wasn't surprised by Ibro's right conclusion. He replied at once:

"I got the news. The battle there isn't looking good.

There was a trap around certain strongholds. Although they managed to liberate 10 strongholds, the main army has been surrounded by a united monsters' army. General Mamor is being trapped with his men there."

Ibro felt deep doubt about this situation. He asked showing his doubts:

"Is this united army one of the standard features of the surface monsters?"

"No, my lord. It's not even a rare nature of these monsters. These monsters have strong egos even between themselves. They will never unite except under dire situations."

Ibro thought a little. He smelled his enemy's scent behind this scene. He didn't know enough info to judge so he ordered:

"Order the army to move towards the surface. Also, send some of the best scout soldiers to gather enough information about the situation there. I want to know the specific details about what exactly happened."

Froki had just experienced how Ibro dealt with war. He knew what his young lord wanted to know. He immediately began to issue a series of orders to everyone around him.

Like bees, the army started to get ready to move out again. This huge army who tasted the blood for the first time was very thirsty to taste it again. Their morale was sky-high.

Ibro was busy thinking about another issue. He was trying to unveil the mystery behind this situation. He didn't doubt even a moment for the interference of his enemy behind this mess.

Although he managed to get all the 10 strongholds he desired, it seemed he would pay a heavy price for it. His original plan was nave indeed. But he didn't have a choice.

He couldn't clone himself to be in two different places at the same time, right? In the next few hours, the news started to come to Ibro and Froki.
