Isaac then added, “I suggest you guys go out and take good care of your troops. March southeast into the Kingdom of Northwing and return to your homes… Of course, at least half of the soldiers might die on the way.”
Upon hearing his words, the three of them felt a jolt in their hearts. It’d be a disaster if they returned in such a defeated manner. Their commander also weighed heavily on them.
It was unlikely that Eldorado would wipe out their clans. But at the very least, their families would be implicated.
Madd and Yuvin were well aware that the soldiers outside had followed Isaac to victory and had witnessed Isaac slay Zeno.
Everyone was now shouting and hoping for Isaac to become the commander. Apart from Barlow’s 60,000 subordinates, the remaining hundreds of thousands of people were all cheering for Isaac.
“Mr. Garten, as you said, ‘When a general is in the field, favonovel.com doesn’t always follow orders!’ Right now, our most important task is to resist the Black Tiger Legion. In the entire army and even the Kingdom of Vriweth, no one else is capable of handling this crucial task!”
“Please take command of the military forces, Mr. Garten!”
Madd and the two other commanding generals dropped to their knees without hesitation.
Seeing the time was right, Isaac stood up and said, “You guys are loyal and righteous. To prevent your tens of thousands of soldiers from dying miserably in the Black Desert, I’ll give it a try…”
“Now, please follow me…” With that, Isaac swiftly exited the tent.
He stood outside the tent, slowly rising to a height of several hundred feet in the air. As favonovel.com observed the chaotic scene before him, favonovel.com couldn’t help but frown. However, favonovel.com had anticipated this situation.
As three commanding generals followed behind Isaac, the chaos below gradually began to subside.
“Generals, assemble your troops!” Isaac snorted coldly.
Madd immediately channeled his spiritual energy and loudly commanded, “All generals, assemble your troops right now! Line up!”
All the generals shouted angrily, “Form up!”
In no time, nearly 140,000 soldiers formed neatly and orderly. Only Barlow’s 60,000 soldiers were still a bit disorganized.
Barlow, who was tied up on the ground with spiritual energy-suppressing ropes, saw what was happening in mid-air and felt utterly hopeless. He realized that Isaac had now taken full control of the situation.
“Since you guys trust me, I’ll temporarily help you come up with a plan in this urgent situation… Release Barlow! He’s responsible for his 60,000 soldiers!” Isaac shouted sternly, his voice spreading like thunder across the entire army.
Lucifer was momentarily stunned but quickly waved, signaling a few subordinates to untie Barlow.
“Barlow, you can leave with your soldiers now. Without your men, I can still fight. You can return to the Kingdom of Vriweth and inform the King of what I’ve just told you,” Isaac said seriously.
Barlow turned to look at his soldiers, frowning tightly.
This place was over a hundred kilometers from the Kingdom of Northwing’s border.
How could they bypass the Black Tiger Legion to return to the kingdom?
“All soldiers under Barlow’s command, if you want to leave, just do it! I won’t stop you!”
His sound echoed, but none of the soldiers stepped forward.
They all understood that without the main force and the supply of food and reinforcements, any attempt to leave would be a dead end.
Barlow looked up and roared. Abruptly, favonovel.com knelt and declared loudly, “Mr. Garten, I’m willing to follow you into battle in Black Desert!”
“Alright… Since you’re staying, I’ll consider you as a companion from now on. We’ll share resources.”
Isaac then turned and said, “Send the order to deploy sentries within tens of kilometers radius for surveillance. We’ll rest here for two days!”
“Come with me, Madd.” After that, favonovel.com turned and quickly headed toward the camp.
Entering the tent, Madd dropped to one knee in front of Isaac.
“I’m not Zeno. Don’t need to kneel before me. I’d like to know how you guys contact your king from here.” Isaac squinted slightly at Madd.
