Chapter 1818: Reached Its Limit
Rhathio, the head disciple, was the only one present at the moment. The other participants of his region were out, commanding their armies with their subordinates. Nevertheless, he was sure that everyone would have felt as angry as him in this situation. “You come into my region and ask us to surrender. Good, good! There’s no need for you to head back and tell your leaders that I refuse. Your death should be a good enough message for that.”
However, the emissary didn’t look that concerned. “That’s true. You could kill me very easily. However, how about you listen to the rest of the message? I only asked for you to surrender first because our leader told me to do so. There’s more.”
“Is that so?” Rhathio asked. “Then tell me what else you could say that would stop me from taking your head.”
The emissary nodded before continuing, “Your region has no chance of surviving against the Jutras Region and their Space Bending Realm participants. You probably think that if they really force it, you guys will give up on your region and ally with them. Later, you can try to take control again, right?”
Rhathio wasn’t impressed with the guy’s words, though. “So what? We still haven’t lost. Even if we do, joining forces with Jutras should give us enough soldiers to attack your region again.”
The emissary nodded once again, replying, “Indeed. That’s why you should take the chance to surrender to us first. If you do so, wouldn’t that mean you could use our communication method as well? We both know that your five-region alliance attacked us because of the huge advantage our communication method provided. Attacking the antennas showed no result whatsoever either. Which one do you think is better? Surrendering and helping the Jutras Region or surrendering and helping the region with the advantage in communication? Later on, you could attempt to betray us and take everything as well. Don’t forget that we’ve also found out how to make copies of the anti-cultivation suppression formation badges.”
“This…” Rhathio would be lying if he said he wasn’t interested.
“Report!” Suddenly, a cultivator entered the room in a hurry. “Sir, Walfure has made its move. Its armies are entering through the south and are marching deeper into our region.”
Rhathio immediately looked at the emissary after that. “Is this part of your plan? Distract me here with that offer while your army takes my region through the south?”
The emissary shook his head, saying, “Of course not! That’s just our help for your region. We will indeed conquer a few cities on the south side. That way, your region will finally reach the brink of losing, and you guys will get the green light to fight against Walfure and Jutras. However, it’s at this moment that we’ll both ally and attack Jutras instead. How about that?”
Rhathio gritted his teeth after hearing that. Wasn’t it working way too well for Walfure? “And what if I refuse?”
The emissary smiled in response. “Well, if that were to be the case, you can only send your region’s Space Bending Realm participants to defend against Walfure and Jutras at the same time. Oh, and also, I wouldn’t try to ally with Jutras if I were you.”
Rhathio had to make a difficult decision. Indeed, he could pretend to ally with Walfure but surrender to Jutras instead. When Walfure appeared to help them, Jutras and Crimew’s Space Bending Realm participants could take them down together. However, they ultimately wouldn’t be able to take the communication system with them. After all, the Jamai Sect disciples weren’t anywhere near at risk of losing their Walfure Region. They could not push this fight into Walfure due to the rules.
The emissary then turned around to leave. “It will take a few weeks for us to conquer the necessary amount of cities in Crimew before your Space Bending Realm participants can come out. Just send someone to meet our army on the south once you get the green light from the Rambram Sect supervisor of your region.” Just like how Hilanshi was the supervisor of Walfure, Crimew also had its own supervisor. It was the supervisors who determined whether a region was about to be lost or not.
Rhathio wanted nothing more than to kill the guy, but he knew that he had to ponder over this issue. Killing the emissary now could possibly stop Walfure from accepting their surrender. It was a lot more important to judge whether being Walfure was the best option or not.
‘Attack!’ Olly’s army received his Divine Sense message as they assaulted the first city near Crimew and Walfure’s borders, Tinka. However, because Crimew sent most of its armies to defend against Jutras in the north, there weren’t many soldiers to protect it. Well, since Walfure only sent its north armies into Crimew, it wasn’t like their advantage in numbers was that big.
The same happened to Givolp, Lalidrin, Qhwert, and other border cities in the south as the other disciples of the Jamai Sect commanded their armies. Behind all their actions were Rean and especially Roan. Not to mention that they had a lot of soldiers at the Transition Realm and below on their side.
But then again, it wasn’t like Rean and Havek were the only ones who could build support and protective formations. Thanks to that, the cities were able to defend themselves for several hours before falling. The good thing was that Walfure kept its losses at a minimum with the advantage in cultivation.
Though, moving armies of such sizes was anything but easy. The twins’ group took several days just to bring everyone to the cities’ borders. And that’s because Rean and Havek prepared the teleport formations ahead of time. Naturally, it took several weeks to conquer more cities deeper into Crimew Region with their limited personnel.
In any case, with Jutras conquering everything in the north and Walfure conquering everything in the south, the Rambram Sect representative finally made an announcement. “Crimew has reached its limit. The Rambram Sect now allows the region’s participants to come out and try to repel the enemies’ forces.”
