Chapter 479: Old Enemies Meet

"Don't die too soon, little baldy. I still have to personally punish you someday."

Our bored gamer murmured under his breath and then he looked up to the blue skies as if gazing into the oncoming race war in the void.

* * *

Three months and a few spare days past but the legion of monsters still hasn't arrived in the domains of humans.

Still, that did not mean the latter has not prepared for this inevitable invasion.

"BOOM!" A gigantic war ship suddenly arrived in the empty expanse of space. It appeared sleek and dangerous with its all dark color theme.

What was more ominous was the two huge constructs on its front which looked like a giant barrel of a gun but only several thousand times more bigger in size.

"WHOOSH!" The war ship joined a whole fleet of its brethren as they numbered in the hundreds at one glance alone.

But this collection of war ships was probably not the most amazing in the picture.

There were more supernatural creations around it like a flying red moon, a mobile fortress, a large tree freely swimming in the void, and many countless others.

It was obvious to see that many have indeed answered the summons of the 3 legendary heroes of humanity.

Nothing could ever unite a single race with different agendas than the threat of an outside enemy in their borders.

* * *

Inside a mammoth deck of cards in the open space, 3 friends conversed in secret.

"From the 1 million able fighters that we have, less than a third chose to fight."

"The others tucked their tails like dogs and ran to faraway lands."

"We can't win this war, Jasmine. Not with only 250,000 Noble Emperors on our ranks." Grand Master Azodus stated the obvious as he read the information on his hands.

Although there were newcomers everyday but they were a mere drop in the ocean that they had yet to fill.

One should know that a Noble Emperor was equivalent to our bored gamer's level 9 measurement of power in this universe.

"I know, Graham. I know." Jasmine replied in just these words alone. Same as the last, she preferred to close her eyes and just sat there in the most serene posture one could have.

If anyone could come inside this sanctum, they would have easily concluded that Jasmine was meditating at this time.

"You should have never told them the number of our enemies, Jasmine.

I can't blame them for running since even I am not very comfortable in facing against 30 million Noble Emperors of the monster race with just the tiny force that we have now."

The Grand Master shook his head as he knew that talking about the past was a futile act already. Jasmine has always been this way. Too honest and upright.

Sometimes he wished that his old friend would learn how to lie once in a while.

A lie before would have absolutely encouraged the majority of their human Noble Emperors to stay here and fight.

"..." Jasmine reply was only of silence. Instead, another has answered for her at this time.

"How about we go at another round of drinks, old friend?" Dante offered and began pouring 3 huge cups thereafter. There was no doubt that they would enjoy today to the fullest.

* * *

Days come to pass but the atmosphere in the defenders' hearts became even more gloomier than before.

They knew what they were going to face but they still remained in order to meet the enemies bravely in their own terms. As such, war was truly an ugly truth of all that has life in this world.

"They are here." A female whisper in the void scattered to the more than 250,000 men, women, and warriors in the scene.

Everyone's eyes turned to one direction and they would not be disappointed in what they expected to see after a breath elapsed into the past.

"BOOM!"

"BOOM!"

"BOOM!" The space rippled and was torn savagely thereafter.

From within the broken envelop of the void came countess grotesque creatures that can only be fathomed in the most hideous of mortal fantasies.

Most of these invaders took the size of skyscrapers as their normal bodies and one can only imagine the immense strength of their physical qualities at this time.

The monster race arrived and their numbers spilled out without end.

Although the Noble Emperors in them numbered no less than 30 million experts but the minions that they brought were absolutely several times that number.

They would need all the hands they could get to assimilate the territories of humans and in this kind of conduct, one could easily see that they were truly confident in their victory today.

"BANG!"

"BANG!"

"BANG!" Without a word of caution, a collective strike went into the heart of the swarm of beasts. This attack originated from almost five thousands warships in the distance.

They spat out not missiles with nuclear warheads but something a lot more fatal than this historic weapon.

A big ray of light cruised at top speed that completely liquefied anything on its path.

This technology was called an anti matter laser beam that was more than enough to obliterate a level 9 creature without fail.

"DING!" Alas, to topple this enemy down was simply not that easy.

A gargantuan turtle shell covered the oncoming monster race and the white destructive rays scattered to the sides of this hard shield.

The impact was not even enough to make a dent unto this ginormous living treasure.

"So we meet again, Ancient Black Turtle." Grand Master Azodus' voice scattered in the area of conflict and a breath later, his middle aged form appeared in front of the human coalition.

Same as before, he still looked like a teacher with the same bald head in tow. It did not need telling that this was not the first time that he'd seen this wretched tortoise.

When a strong clan from the monster race attacked the human domains in the past, Graham Azodus led the team that wreaked havoc and death in retaliation.

In the end, they were stopped short by this very same Ancient Black Turtle who boasted a seemingly impenetrable defense.

That was the first time when these 2 races in the cosmos had gotten acquainted with each other not in pace but in war. 

"Yes, indeed." A deep hoary old voice replied kindly thereafter.
