The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order

Chapter 656: Taking care of friends

”All soldiers under my battalion, adopt formation now!”

An old Peak Wave King shouted with a voice that seemed to echo across the streets, and soon, one thousand soldiers appeared in front of him, displaying great military discipline and training.

The group consisted of ten Wave Kings, one hundred Wave Champions, and over eight hundred Wave Warriors. Some were old, while others were young. Still, after three years of endless battles against the Inferno Daemon Invasion Force, every single one could be considered a war veteran capable of great might on the battlefield and with a mind of steel.

The old Peak Wave King nodded as his soldiers aligned in formation. After ensuring they were all paying attention, he proceeded.

”I have good news. Lord Laurifer, the Scarlet King, has gifted us a massive amount of resources we can use immediately. All of you will receive a Peak Wave Armor and Weapon according to your cultivation base, along with top-tier cultivation resources.”

With a wave of his hand, a space ring flew to every man and woman present. As they inspected the contents, a sense of shock and awe appeared on their faces. Their armor, worn and damaged after years of battle, could be now replaced with these new Wave Artifacts, a significant upgrade that would improve their battle power and survival abilities.

Not to mention, the cultivation resources in each ring were top-tier and would greatly assist them.

The old Wave King continued after giving the soldiers a moment to examine their space rings.

”Soon, you will be summoned to the Titan Tower. The Scarlet King also brought a massive amount of healing drugs and resources. Everyone will enter the Recovery Capsules to treat their wounds. According to what they told me, these drugs can not only repair your body but also enhance your bloodlines and energy pools, so make sure to be in peak condition to take full advantage of this lucky chance.”

Thrill and delight appeared in the eyes of the soldiers. The continuous battles against the members of the Inferno Daemon Race had left hidden wounds all over their bodies. While these did not impact their battle power significantly, they prevented them from exerting themselves fully. It seemed that soon, they would no longer have to worry about that.

”Lieutenant Colonel Hellblazer and Major Sinar, stay. The rest, leave.”

The soldiers could not help but turn to the duo but did not dare to disobey the old manʼs words and soon departed the place, leaving the trio alone.

”Colonel Jukar,” Levi and Lurin stepped forward and stood before the old Peak Wave King, clasping their hands and performing a deep bow.

It had been several years since Cain last saw the duo. Now, Levi was an Early Wave King, and Lurin was a Peak Wave Champion. Although their growth could not compare to Cainʼs monstrous progress, they were considered geniuses in their own right, having advanced very fast thanks to their hard work and the support Cain gave them during their youth.

Colonel Jukar glanced at the duo and softly nodded. He had nothing but praise for Levi and Lurin, as they had always been very hardworking and reliable in managing their squads.

”Here, this is something special the Scarlet King gave me for you two,” he announced, presenting each with a new space ring.

As Levi and Lurin explored the contents with their Ego Wave, they were shocked to find not just armor, weapons, or cultivation resources but something much more astonishing.

Each ring contained a Peak Apotheosis Deus Behemoth!

The Apotheosis Masters in each ring were in a meditative position, revolving the energy inside their bodies, keeping their cultivation at full power.

Just as the duo wondered what they were supposed to do with the Deus Behemoth Peak Apotheosis Master, Cainʼs voice echoed inside their minds.

”This is a death row criminal of the Hyperion Continentʼs Tier 0 Dark Factions whom I have hypnotized. Once awakened, it will extract you from the battlefield before going on a suicidal rampage against the enemyʼs army.”

The duo looked at each other in disbelief, realizing just how powerful Cain had become. Cainʼs plans to protect his friends and loved ones were ingenious. He could have easily removed them from the battlefield with his military authority, but he chose a method that honored their duties as soldiers and didnʼt send the wrong message to the rest of the troops.

That is why Cain came up with the Hypnotized Death Road Warriors. It took a lot of effort and time to hypnotize these Deus Behemoths, and it was not really cost-effective, but it would prove efficient in protecting those who were special to him while still allowing them to carry on their duties on the battlefield.

Colonel Jukar did not have the authority to inspect the space ring, but just by seeing the expression of the duo, he could tell that whatever was inside must have been shocking. Of course, the man did not ask since he was not the type to pry into the affairs of soldiers under his command, especially since the duo was now under the protection of a man who could face a True Titan.

”That is all. Return to your duties.”

Levi and Lurin immediately regained their focus as they heard the old Peak Wave Kingʼs voice and adopted a military stance before clasping their hands, bowing, and leaving the area.

Scenes like that were repeated all over the Golden Core City as the battalion leaders were handing over treasures to their soldiers before passing unique space rings to some special people.

Just as the millions of soldiers obtained Wave Artifacts and resources, the Divine Ascension Masters of the Collapsing Lightning Alliance were also given powerful treasures that could help them improve their battle power and cultivation.

And on the highest level of the Titan Tower, all the great generals and Titans of the Collapsing Lightning Alliance were present, facing the First Collapsing Lightning Pillar, the Patriarch of the Aegon Family, and the Scarlet King.
