Lord of the Truth

Chapter 905: Reception party

Five minutes ago--

”Damn, where is the General when we need him? Did he escape?” One of the Fleet Generalʼs assistants looked around frantically, they had started preparing to attack the monster

crouching at the space portal, but they still couldnʼt find their leader.

”Maybe... he was killed?!” Another assistant muttered pessimistically.

”Shut up! Are you saying that that monster managed to kill him while he was standing among us? Is our general weak or are we the ones who lost our sight? Thatʼs absolutely impossible!!” His colleague slapped him on the back of the head.

”Whatever happened, we have to get rid of him now, the blood sea has disappeared and those strange blood flowers are gone, itʼs time to kill him!” The First Assistant General pointed at Sakaar, ”Advance, if we kill that monster and destroy the space portal, the entire southern region will be ours!”

”Advance!”

”Avenge your brothers, show him the wrath of the Great Serpent!”

The entire Great Serpent Army had retreated a great distance when they felt the power of the mothershipʼs cannonball, currently only the strongest among them could see Sakaarʼs features from this distance!

*Step* *Step*

Tens of thousands of soldiers began to slowly step forward, then their steps quickened until they started running at full speed!

The strength that Sakaar showed certainly shook their being, but their accumulated experience as elite soldiers told them that he had reached his limits, no matter how strong a person is, he cannot fight an army alone!

*Vrooomm*

The ships also turned on their engines, but they did not head directly toward Sakaar, but rather leaned to the side and began to circle around the space portal at high speed, ready to rain cannon shots on Sakaar and the space portal as soon as they received the orders.

In front of their eyes, the majestic monster crouching on the space portal cracked his neck right and left, then turned one arm into a sword and the other into a huge cleaver, his confident appearance ready to clash with a huge army took some more fear into their chests. ”Donʼt stop! Itʼs one last trick heʼs trying to play! Go go go!!” The generalʼs assistants jumped and flew toward Sakaar at the same time, encouraging the rest to follow them. ”Kill!!”

”Heyaa!!!”

*Bzzzzt* At this moment, the space inside the space portal liquefied and started sending waves as if someone had dropped a stone on the surface of a lying body of water... It has been activated!

But this did not discourage the first assistant who maintained his momentum. Even if the space portal was activated, everything would be fine once they destroyed it. The one who would emerge now must be a shadow sword or perhaps a small army unit. What do they have to fear?

”Hyaaa!!!!”

Before their eyes, four individuals emerged, each with a different appearance. One was wearing the distinctive black-gold armor of the True Beginning Martial Emperors, another had flames on his hair and a fur apron that covered only his private parts, the third had the head and claws of a fox, and the fourth was a demon that looked like the one who had tormented them for the past hour.

”Khaaaa!!!” The assistants increased their shouting and rushing when they saw only four of them. Even if there were four more martial emperors, they wouldnʼt offer anything significant in a battle of this scale.

*BZZZZZ* The gate made its noise again and more began to emerge.

”HYAAAAAAA!!!”

”Hyaaa...”

”...Eh?!” The generalʼs assistants and the rest of the emperors slowed down until they stood back in place, and behind them their army also stood staring at the space portal, and those who came out of the space portal were staring at them...

Over a hundred people wearing golden armor came out of the space portal and stood behind Old Man Gu, 50 people with flaming hair and fur aprons stood behind Samson, 50 demi-foxes stood behind King Volpe and another 100 demons stood behind Morin.

The people standing behind Samson and Volpe were mostly old men with wise, calm regiments, but their aura was undoubtedly that of a martial emperorʼs realm!

That is, the ones who just came out of the space portal were at least 300 individuals, all were martial emperors.

”Brother Morin? All of you...” Sakar was surprised when he smelled Morinʼs distinctive scent and then smelled the scents of another hundred of his men!

”Oh, Brother Sakar!” Morin finally withdrew his surprise a little and looked up, ”Whatʼs going on here?”

”Hehe, a massacre, thatʼs whatʼs going on.” Sakar laughed out loud, it had been a while since he felt this happy to see his kind, ”Follow me, you can eat whatever you want but leave me half of their blood, I have to make up for what I lost.”

”You got it.” Morin didnʼt ask anymore, the word eat was all that mattered, ”Letʼs go!”

*Swoosh* *Swoosh*

Sakar charged with tremendous momentum, followed by Moren, and behind them were a hundred enthusiastic and bloodthirsty Demon Emperors.

The strange thing was that neither Sakar, Moren, nor even the hundred Demon Emperors tried to convince Old Man Gu and the rest to help, they ignored them as if they didnʼt exist! ”Return to the ships, return to the ships quickly!!” The generalʼs assistants felt their hearts jump out of their chests, wasnʼt one of those monsters enough?!

”...Well I didnʼt expect this.” In front of the space portal, Samson muttered as he watched the Great Serpent Army, he had avoided them for hundreds of years only to find them right in front of him when he went to visit another planet!!

”The Great... Serpent... Empire!!” As for King Volp, he bared his fangs and set off to fight, behind him, Sandria and fifty demi-fox martial emperors jumped into the fight with hearts filled with hatred and rage.

”Tsk- That guy is always enthusiastic, I guess his animal side has an effect hehe...” Samson rubbed his beard and then looked at Old Man Gu, ”Hey bro, did you know this was happening? We came to take a tour, not to fight you know.”

Old Man Gu shook his head with his eyebrows furrowed, ”This is the planet you mentioned we were fighting over against the Great Serpent Empire, when I took off for Planet Gudah the fighting had just broken out in the central region, I didnʼt know that the war had spread to the southern region as well.”

As far as he knew, the southern region was home to the army of the True Beginning Empire, and this space portal was the most active one on the planet. Could it be that they would be

defeated in war?!

”Haha, you guys seem to be in a bad situation.” Samson laughed and waved after him, ”Come on guys, letʼs kill a few thousand snakes to deserve the feast we were promised today!!”

”Oh! Oh!” Like barbarians, Samson and his men pushed towards the Great Snake Fleet, wielding clubs and axes.

”...Shoot the war ships down but cause them minimal damage, donʼt let a single one escape.” Old Gu finally gave the order to his men.

”Yes, General!” The Martial Emperors of the True Beginning spread out in an instant, leaving direct combat to the rest of the groups as they focused on shooting down the ships and establishing a blockade.

Old Gu then inserted his soul sense into his ring, and chose the contact to be the second-in-

command of the Shadow Swords: ”Hey Charles, Iʼm back, yes Iʼm in the southern region, excuse my manners but what the fuck is going on here?!”
