172 Mutated Beast Horde (2/2)
Greeted Lucien with a small bow. Nalthos was Lucien's teacher on many things ranging from swordsmanship and Kenjutsu to the military strategy and art of war.
”Teacher Nalthos, I will take on the Double-Headed Flame Lion to test my skills. You together with other Holy Imperial Knights would kill everything else at Type 8 and Type 9 to prevent unnecessary danger for our troops.”
Said Lucien as Nalthos just nodded his head in agreement. After one hour of waiting, finally, the rest of the army arrived together with the rest of the Holy Imperial Knights. All of them were already on their position while waiting for the mutated beast horde to arrive and for the battle to start. Magitek Dreadnoughts were already hovering in the orbit of the planet, waiting for their moment to strike.
Only after twenty more minutes of impatient waiting, the mutated beast horde finally arrived. It was imposing sigh at them, as tens of thousands of mutated beasts were closing to their position, they were of various species and sizes, as they were preparing to attack the Holy Niflheim Empire under the leadership of the Double-Headed Flame Lion that was Peak-Grade Type 9 mutated beast.
”Send the order for Magitek Towers to start long-range attacks.”
Ordered Lucien as tens of Magitek Towers started shooting laser-like attacks from their Magitek Crystals, that were tearing through the mutated beast horde like a hot knife through the butter. Mutated beasts only roared in the despair and pain, as they were mercilessly killed with just one hit from the Magitek Towers. To this, Type 9 mutated beasts ferociously shot forward to the defensive line as they wanted to destroy the Magitek Towers, only to be stopped by the Holy Imperial Knights who were waiting on the stand by.
The real battle didn't start yet, only top powerhouses engaged themselves in a fight while the main armies were still on stand by. The mutated beast horde was closing to the defensive line at fast speed and Imperial Army and Magitek Infantry Soldiers were waiting for their enemy to arrive.
Same went for commanders of the battle, Lucien Etras von Aeon and Double-Headed Flame Lion that were just observing each other from the distance.
”Signal for the Magitek Assassins to go and assassinate all Control-Type mutated beasts and all Command-Type mutated beasts. Send in half of the Magitek Assassins.”
Lucien issued another order, for more than one thousand Magitek Assassins to assassinate all dangerous mutated beasts in the large-scale conflict. Control-Type mutated beasts were troublesome from the aspect they could control directly other monsters, but more troublesome were Command-Types. They had superior intelligence that could easily outmatch the biggest geniuses and could easily command the mutated beasts army, so it was important to dispose of them at the start of the battle before they could cause them some serious damages.
Then thousand of Magitek Assassins went at top speed to assassinate all of their targets, fortunately, there weren't many of the Control-Type and Command-Type monsters here and all of the Magitek Assassins were of the Initial-Phase Count-Rank same as the Type 6 mutated beasts, though their biggest advantage was superior speed as their true speed was comparable to the Early-Phase Count-Rank / Type 7 and also their weaponry that was suited for assassination.
