Chapter 222: War in the Nephilim Sealing Mountain (2/2)

”If being concerned that a hasty march that will allow the traitors to either backstab us in the battlefield or burn this kingdom as we leave is traitorous, then I am indeed a traitor to common sense! Go to those humans, you newt!”

”Enough!” The powerful shout of Komodo echoed out.

”Among you are three Champions that I trust with my life. Two Champions will stay here, and one will remain in this castle to defend. I want all Champions and Captains to surrender their wives, husbands, sons, daughters, or the closest person they have. Champion Claw 3. You will be the Champion that will guard over them. Should any instance of betrayal occur from any Captain or Champion in this kingdom, kill them! The weakening of our Message Talismans has disappeared. I will send you a message of who or how many to kill if there are anyone who will betray the forces I lead out to war.”

The announcement shocked everyone.

”Commander! That's!”

”That is not enough as the stakes are too high! But it will do! I will not tolerate traitorous activities from now on. I can easily send a message to turn all of those who are here into traitors if needed. You have kept the secret of a dragon from the kingdom! So be quiet and have your loved ones sent here, or you will die!” Komodo roared.

”We march to war in ten minutes!”

The orders caused everyone to scatter. The Champions and Captains hurriedly did as stated. The announcement caused the night to be full of action as the groups began to follow the command.

Those that were late had someone among the people brought in to be killed. The fear against the Commander spread throughout the Kingdom, and the hasty preparations that seemed impossible finally happened.

Komodo had learned of what transpired outside and understood why there was a delay. He cursed at how crafty the Poltergeist was and ordered the Champion that remained to clarify and keep investigating the possible traitorous actions being done in the kingdom.

Without delay, the march of the Lizards began.

Komodo Dragon brought with him thirty Captains headed by three Champions. The danger of the traitors creating an insurrection forced Komodo Dragon to divide among Champions. As a result, the army was not united, and morale was low.

The Commander led the way. He had already sent the message to his nation about the secrets of the dragon, and more lizards were coming.

”And here I thought I would be the Lizard Lord in this region. But there's no helping it. So I guess that Commander is the best for these situations. I need brains, and that Commander has it!” Komodo muttered as his army marched out.

Back in Golem City...

The humans had made barricades and barricades around the area. The scouts confirmed the existence of several lizard races.

What was horrifying was that several large Char Vermillion Lizards were spotted.

”Champion! Those Lizards suddenly became more organized!” One of the Captain gave his report.

At first, the appearance of the Vermillion Lizards was scattered, but suddenly they had become organized.

”We saw a large lizard leading them!” One of the scouts added.

Champion Ordeus turned sour as he heard this.

”Prepare for war. Steele family! Is it possible to create more Golems with the lizards we kill?”

”Yes! But this strange artifact acts in randomness. Sometimes a golem is created, sometimes one of the existing golems are strengthened, on some occasions, nothing happens.” Branze reported.

”We will create a corpse extracting team so that we can deploy more golems to the field.” Ordeus nodded.

”Forgive me, Champion. But I wish to talk to my son.”

”Champion Mezal. You need to rest with your sons. Leave this battle to us. You have already taught us how to operate. Rest well. You may rejoin the battle when you feel you have fully rested.” Ordeus ordered.

Mezal bowed, and he and his sons moved towards the back of the battlefield.

”Alright... Tell me everything.” Mezal finally spoke as they were an earshot away from everyone.
