Lucas finally took out his phone and sent a message to Isaac to report the situation.
Isaac’s reply was a simple “Good”.
With that, Lucas also breathed a sigh of relief.
The gathering crowds continued to increase, reaching even bigger numbers. Only when the first light of dawn shone from the horizon did Lucas walk to the highest point, his eyes fixed on the valley below.
In front were the ranks of Dusk Soldiers, approximately 60 thousand of them. Behind them were the Dawn Soldiers, numbering around 130 thousand. There were easily 40 to 50 thousand fewer soldiers than before.
As the temperature began to rise, the warriors started to feel exhausted from a night of long-distance travel. However, seeing Lucas standing at the highest point, not a single person dared to complain. They all silently waited, anticipating the arrival of Drakon.
The golden sunlight bathed the desert in its warm glow, and the blue sky with white clouds gradually appeared.
Several Jeeps kicked up clouds of dust as they raced toward this gathering. The cars stopped on the slope. Afterward, Isaac and his team got out of the car and briskly walked up the hill.
When Isaac appeared and stood at the highest point in the area, a moment of tremendous energy, hostility, and killing intent suddenly erupted from the more than a hundred thousand soldiers in the valley below.
Hera, who walked up to Isaac from behind, looked down at the valley and was instantly stunned.
How did so many warriors suddenly appear in just one night?
The area of the valley below easily covered tens of thousands of square feet, and at this moment, the entire valley was filled with warriors wearing red or black soft body armor.
Another helicopter swiftly approached from the sky and landed 300 feet behind Isaac.
Lupinus, Harry, Dragon One, and Dragon Five hurried toward Isaac. At this point, Isaac and all five generals finally assembled.
Holding a data sheet, Lucas quickly walked up to Isaac, his expression somber and intimidating.
“Drakon, we’ve roughly estimated the numbers. Excluding the ten thousand Dusk Soldiers and 30 thousand Dawn Soldiers around Elliot, favonovel.com slaughtered more than eight thousand Dusk Soldiers and four thousand Dawn Soldiers. The rest managed to escape quietly…”
“So, Elliot killed over 12 thousand people just to become a lord, right?” Isaac’s voice turned ice-cold to the extreme. He hadn’t anticipated that this betrayal would lead to the brutal deaths of so many comrades.
Lucas nodded, stepping back to the side.
Isaac walked to the forefront and abruptly spoke up, and his voice, enveloped in spiritual energy, echoed in all directions.
“You are guilty… Firstly, for betraying your own general… Secondly, for mutilating your own brothers… Thirdly, for harming your own countrymen!”
“Do you admit to these sins?!”
Over a hundred thousand warriors lowered their heads, most of them teary-eyed. They were filled with regret as they recalled the recent events.
“I’m asking you, do you admit to these sins?!” Isaac roared again.
Over a hundred thousand warriors raised their heads abruptly, their eyes turning red, shouting, “We admit! We are guilty!”
Isaac took a deep breath, raised a finger, and shouted, “Good! Since you acknowledge your guilt, I’ll give you a chance for redemption! Three days from now, reclaim the three uranium mines we lost and advance 200 kilometers into Darkit’s territory. Can you do it?!”
