Rea narrowed her eyes, looking at the incoming monsters. There were more than ten thousand monsters coming her way. Meanwhile, she had thirty thousand people.
At one glance, they looked superior to the monsters. But this monster wave was only the opening since the enemies only used them as a distraction.
All the strong monsters would come after them. She was afraid that their quality couldn't be compared to the monsters.
So, Rea had to watch the monsters for the time being, letting them get closer.
"It seems that the enemies have arrived. The Magic Power fluctuation is fierce. And we also have another problem. The spies seem to have made their move, causing commotions inside the base."
Rea glanced to the side. The one who reported all the situations to her was none other than Isaac.
"I see. Thanks." Rea nodded.
"Are we going to attack? The troops are ready."
"Hmm…" Rea seemed to be hesitating as if she was thinking about something.
Isaac and Rea were smart people, but they were in different fields, so they couldn't understand each other at this time.
In the end, Isaac asked another question. "How about the chaotic atmosphere in the base?"
"Agata will handle the base. As for us, we'll be focusing on the monsters before us." Rea turned around, looking at the armies.
"According to the report, we have three thousand Magicians and one thousand Rangers. They can be the ones to start the attacks, suppressing the enemies with their firepower.
"We can sweep the enemies with the help of the Knights, Fighters, and Magic Warriors. The Healers shall be at the rear and prepare to heal nonstop.
"The Enchanters can't stop their support ability while the Summoners are to use their beasts to stop their advance. The Assassins and Illusionists shall help them accordingly. As for the scouts…"
Rea furrowed her eyebrows. "I need to spread all of them past those monsters."
"Huh?" Isaac was confused. Sending those people past the monsters meant cutting off their means of reinforcement. If this was Theo's group or the military, they would gladly do it.
But the organizations weren't that patriotic or loyal, so they would frown upon this decision. That was why Rea said, "It's fine if they escape the moment they find enemies. But I'm afraid these monsters are preparing something behind them, so we have to find them first."
"…" Isaac stopped for a moment. "Alright. I will relay this matter to them. To make sure they're going, I'll also follow them."
"…" Rea frowned, worried that Isaac would die from this.
However, Isaac smiled while pumping his fists. "When everyone is risking their lives to protect what we want to protect, I, too, have to risk my life. If you are worried about me, then I can bring Walker with me.
"Besides, my ability to see Magic Power is something we need right now. At the very least, this is one of the rare moments where I can contribute greatly to our group!" Isaac smiled.
Rea didn't think that way. After all, Isaac had done a lot of research. His knowledge and research helped them greatly.
However, Isaac didn't mean the research. He might be their researcher, but Isaac was also a Supreme Rank Expert whose strength couldn't be underestimated.
And this battle gave him an opportunity to finally contribute with his might instead of his brain.
But before she could say her concern, Isaac already ran away.
…
The other two areas also experienced the same attack.
Ray and Valerie stood on top of a hill, watching the monsters coming their way.
"We have to make our move right now." Ray narrowed his eyes.
"I'm going to spread our people. After all, we have to protect every inch of our border. So, you will only have ten thousand people to work with. Is that enough?" Valerie asked.
"It's enough." Ray nodded with a serious expression. "I'll be leading the first charge."
"Alright then. I'll return to my post." Valerie waved her hand before walking away.
Ray had a different perspective than Agata. It was true that as a leader, they shouldn't make their move easily.
However, Valerie was concerned about the army. The soldiers they currently had came from various organizations. Their disciplines were different and they had their own purposes on this battlefield.
So, Ray wanted to lead the first battle so that they could work together and gain some confidence.
Now that he had confirmed their plan, he also walked away to find the people that would help him command their people.
…
Ava also had a different approach. It might be due to her instinct as a monster, but she felt the situation wasn't as simple.
"Ava. Everyone is ready." Ergene came to her as her adviser.
"Do you think you can lead the army in my stead? I think I have to leave the battlefield for the time being to confirm my suspicion."
"Hmm? Do you find anything?" Ergene tilted her head in confusion.
"My senses are tingling. Whenever I'm in this situation, there will always be an ambush. However, I don't know what kind of ambush they have, so I'm going to check it personally."
"An ambush?" Ergene frowned. "The base has been ambushed as well. But for now, the situation can still be controlled. Do you mean this kind of ambush?"
"No. I'm talking about the ambush that will come from this direction…" Ava pointed at the north while looking at the horizon as if she was trying to discern something.
"Is that so? Leading them should be no problem. Though, we aren't in a good position because we don't have a lot of people."
"I'll be back shortly." Ava nodded.
"I understand. This will exhaust you a lot, but…" Ergene bowed to Ava. "Thank you for doing everything for the humans."
"I am not doing it for humans. I'm merely helping Theo. That's all."
"I see."
Ergene nodded while Ava hopped onto the tree and used her small form to slip past the enemy's rank.
