Chapter 1615: Chapter 73: The Might of the Knight Corps (Part 3)
Marshal Howell waved his sleeve and said.
Clearly, he still held on to the last fantasy about this war. Not exactly hoping for victory, but aiming to buy more time for the main forces.
With the situation developed to this point, the three centipede armies responsible for the rearguard are definitely not going to escape today.
Destined to be sacrificed here, they must at least die with value.
“Your Marshal, our task is to contain the Human Sanctuary powerhouses, not including the Sanctuary Divine Beasts.
You know, Hudson himself is a top powerhouse within the Sanctuary, and he even holds a Divine Artifact in his hand.
All four of us are just at the First Level of the Sanctuary, and even containing him is difficult.
To stop his dragon and bear, I’m afraid only by having all the Sanctuary members of our clan attack together can we have a chance of winning!”
Master Seyam answered expressionlessly.
Admitting defeat always beats losing one’s life; up until now in the war, the Giant Foot Centipede Clan has already lost two Sanctuary members to Hudson.
Even though we were unprepared last time, it proved that a three-versus-three battle approach doesn’t work.
Now it has turned into four versus three, yet Master Seyam still doesn’t see any advantage for our side.
Knowing Hudson’s prowess, when we had previously set up a scheme with the Demonic Crocodile Clan against the Human Sanctuary, we avoided this hard bone.
“Master Seyam, don’t you find these words quite funny?”
Marshal Howell said indignantly.
Magical Beasts are also considered part of one’s strength. Saying that containing Human Sanctuary powerhouses doesn’t include those with Magical Beasts is explosive reasoning anywhere.
“Your Marshal, Seyam is correct. This time, we only need to contain the Sanctuary powerhouses among humans and ensure your safety as the commander.
Since Hudson has not made a move, we naturally find it inconvenient to act.
If you are willing, we can take you out of here. If we delay further, we can’t guarantee we can get you out alive!”
Elder Mena delivered the final blow, completely leaving Marshal Howell without temper.
There have been shameless ones, but none as shameless as this.
With Hudson not making a move, it’s like they have contained the other side.
However, the problem is that Hudson, as the Commander of the Army, needs to maintain his identity. How could he charge like a mere soldier?
It’s one thing to argue, but to resort to threats is another. If this mess continues, he as Marshal will turn into a dead centipede.
To abandon his command and flee under normal circumstances shouldn’t happen, but Marshal Howell has no faith in the integrity of these elder clan members.
Before he could continue, his confidant the Six-winged Centipede intervened first: “Respected Ones, the situation is collapsing; think of the big picture.
Please take the Marshal away, then plan for later!”
Initially about to get angry, the four Respected Ones, upon hearing that last sentence, suddenly found the Six-winged Centipede likable.
Without any hesitation, Master Seyam directly knocked out Marshal Howell and carried him on his shoulder.
Beside him, Elder Mena also conveniently picked up the Six-winged Centipede and quickly dashed out of the camp.
It was clear they had a wealth of fleeing experience. Instead of foolishly flying away in the sky, they blended into the scattered soldiers and fled.
The Magical Beast Knight at the forefront charged into the enemy ranks, creating a path through them, while fleeing centipede soldiers were all over the place.
“Pass the order, no one is to engage in battle lightly. Follow me immediately to pursue the enemy’s main force!”
Hudson decisively ordered.
What lies ahead is just a starter; the enemy’s main force is the real target of this operation.
