Chapter 713 - Legion of the Dead 4 (1/2)

-… That was what happened.

At the entire explanation from Count Ferrero, Luke stroked his chin.

“If the testimony of that prisoner is current, it would mean that there was a warlock in the enemy troops right from the beginning.”

-It was my responsibility. If the prisoners were managed thoroughly, this wouldn’t have happened…

Luke shook his hand at Ferrero who was blaming himself.

“No, that isn’t your fault. It was my fault for not calculating this likelihood.”

Luke hadn’t taken a closer look at the reinforcements of the Libiya Kingdom. All he thought was that he had to hurry and kill Rudolf and destroy the Ruins of Time.

-Anyway, we hurried up and tried to move. The 3rd squad is in danger, but it is even more dangerous for the towns and cities near the region.

Honestly, Count Ferrero wanted Luke to go over and fix the situation.

He already had the experience in solving the zombie poison situation in the Holy Empire.

However, he couldn’t say that out loud, especially since he knew that Luke had something important to do.

“With the 3rd squad members, it might be impossible to stop them. While retreating, make the local men evacuate. When the civilians are attacked by the zombies, it will only turn troublesome for us.”

-The civilians are already being moved and helped, Count Darland has already proposed that.

“That so? That was a good move. I’ll contact the 1st squad and make sure that you get the support from the Holy Empire. They have experience in it and can cope well.”

Luke chose to send in the Holy Empire rather than going over to support his men.

His priority was the destruction of the ancient ruins.

-Understood, Your Majesty.

After finishing the communication, Luke directly contacted Commander Rogers.

He then ordered the Holy Imperial Army to be moved to the 3rd squad, right away.

In addition, he told them to send in priests and wizards along with Symphonia troops.

“Your Majesty, our army is rapidly advancing towards Nemesis. I am concerned that the decrease in military power will cause disruption in the further operation.”

The reason why the 1st squad was able to advance that rapidly was because the enemy commanders and lord either fled or surrendered because of the scale of the troops.

If the number decreased, there was a possibility that the reaction of the enemy forts would change.

However, Luke thought that it was highly unlikely.
