Chapter 819 -7: Charging into Battle_2
Afterward, Link inspected the Grande Family enterprise core, consisting of the Grande Potion Shop and Grande Tea House, under Jasmine’s management.
Two days flew by in the blink of an eye.
Considering their frequent partings and rare meetings, Jasmine was particularly clingy at night over these two days.
If it wasn’t for her pregnancy, she would have probably been insatiable.
This was a case of once tasted, never forgotten.
“Ah!!! Why must I be pregnant!”
Fearing she might harm the baby, Jasmine couldn’t even explore other avenues, which left her extremely frustrated.
Being of noble birth, she was no less experienced in these matters than Link.
However, that was the reality, and no amount of frustration on Jasmine’s part would change it.
And then the time to part arrived again.
Link used the Inter-Dimensional Teleportation several times and returned to his loyal Grande Sage Army.
“How are things?”
Upon entering the command hall of the newly equipped Fifth-level Star Destroyer Fortress, Link immediately switched into work mode.
The Water-Based Fourth Level Demon that had set its sights on this Water World had made a surprising counter-attack, gathering an even larger army before striking back fiercely.
“Report to the Legion Commander, our scouts have discovered that the Abyss Demon Army consists of two legions, with two fourth-level Demons, one of water attribute, and the other a Power Demon. Fourteen small Abyss Gates have already been established, and two medium-sized ones, there’s currently no sign of any large Abyss Gates being constructed.”
Chief of Staff Drozan Lorry briefly introduced the situation.
The wizards refer to the black hole-like portals used by the Abyss Demons as Abyss Gates.
There are three sizes: large, medium, and small.
The large type is a permanent inter-dimensional teleportation portal, capable of both individual and group teleportation, and is considered strategic-level.
The medium type is semi-permanent, also suitable for both individual and group teleportation, but with a limited load capacity for group teleportation, suitable for small-scale troop movements.
New novel chapters are published on freewёbn૦νeɭ.com.
The small type is also semi-permanent but can only support individual teleportation.
“Mmm.”
Link turned his gaze to the huge screen in front of the command hall.
It displayed various pieces of information about the Grande Sage Army as well as intelligence on the Abyss Demon Army they were facing.
In the days while he was away, upon detecting the enemy, the Grande Sage Army had calmly dealt with the situation according to the plan and had fully scouted all the information available.
“Report the battle plans.”
After getting a more comprehensive grasp of the situation, Link ordered.
“Yes, Legion Commander.”
Following the command, the Chief of Staff immediately had the staff present several battle plans that Link had drafted during his time at the Supreme Council.
They were displayed and explained one by one.
The staff had come up with three strategies after synthesizing all kinds of information.
The first strategy was to build a strong fortress and engage in a protracted battle;
An interstellar fleet centered around a Fifth-level Star Destroyer Fortress and two Fourth-level Fortress held an advantage in space battles;
They would mount a frontal assault, inching forward, steadily pushing the battle line, continuously inflicting casualties, and ultimately choosing an opportune moment to launch a decisive battle.
The second strategy was a raid;
Also highlighting the interstellar fleet’s superiority, this plan entailed a full-scale attack on the Abyss Demon Army before it could fully entrench itself, aiming for a large-scale annihilation.
The third strategy was a confrontation; attrition; a tug of war; followed by a decisive battle.
This approach primarily leveraged the logistical support advantage to wear down the Abyss Demon Army.
After reviewing and listening to the three strategies, Link remained silent.
Overall, he found them quite satisfactory.
The Water Demon had only returned after Elise Clark’s advancement to Sage and the completion of the Five-Person Mission selection.
Considering the two days that Link rested back home, it had only been a total of three days to date.
With Link having delegated authority, the Grande Sage Army had done well to independently scout and formulate battle plans.
However, in Link’s view, these three strategies were too safe and conservative, each more cautious than the last.
Link was not an impulsive person, nor did he underestimate the two Abyss Demon Army legions before him.
On the contrary, he took the Abyss Demons very seriously; after all, the Abyss World’s civilization was one that stood at the pinnacle of this universe, alongside the Wizard World, the World of God, and the Undead World civilizations.
While wizards are a bane to demons, that doesn’t mean they can simply crush them at will.
Accidents, though rare, can happen.
It’s precisely because of this importance that Link preferred a more aggressive approach.
The battle cannot drag on, we must settle it in one fight, directly taking down the Abyss Demon Army before us.
The great upheaval prophesied by the Saint of Nostrodamus, which hasn’t been seen for thousands of years, has entered a new phase when the Five-Person Mission went to the Parallel Universe, and the phrase “Infinite blessings” reached Link’s ears.
It’s entirely foreseeable that, in the near future, countless tumults will arise, and one after another, heroic figures will emerge.
Link does not want to waste his precious time on conflicts with the Abyss Demons.
So…
“Pass my command, assemble, rally the troops, prepare to strike, execute plan zero,” he said.
Link had made up his mind and issued his order resolutely.
Chief of Staff Drozan Lorry was slightly startled but quickly regained his composure.
He indeed did not expect the legion commander to be so aggressive.
Not just him, perhaps the entire legion, everyone had not anticipated this.
However, as a subordinate, once the legion commander has made a decision, faithfully carrying it out is a sacred duty.
The Chief of Staff immediately relayed Link’s command to the Grande Sage Army above and below.
The three main battalions, the Personal Guard Army, logistics, and various functional departments were set into booming action.
In space, the Interstellar Fleet adjusted its formation.
This commotion was tremendous.
The Abyss Demon Army, which was stationed far away from the Interstellar Fleet, immediately noticed the new developments.
“The vile wizards are moving, what are they planning to do?”
The newly promoted Water-Based Fourth Level Demon had also participated in the wars across the Heavens before, but only as a “pawn.”
This was also its first time leading troops into battle.
Therefore, even though the Power Demons were somewhat lowly in the Abyss, the Water Demon outwardly showed great respect for the battle-experienced Power Demon.
“Get ready, the despicable wizards wish to fight a decisive battle with us,” said the Power Demon, making a judgment through real-time reconnaissance.
“A decisive battle?”
The Water Demon was quite surprised, “Is it a decisive battle already? Not even testing the waters first?”
This sentence fully revealed the Water Demon’s lack of experience.
If it wasn’t for the need to rely on the Water Demon, the Power Demon would not have made a losing deal.
“Just prepare for the battle,” was the response.
With a creeping sense of foreboding, the Power Demon dutifully issued a warning, then left the Water Demon and returned to its own army.
Soon, the Power Demon Army was the first to act, preparing to engage the enemy head-on and to retreat back into the Abyss promptly if needed.
Power Demons might have a low status and often be used as cannon fodder by higher-ranked demons, but this one had ripe experience in warfare and naturally had a few tricks up its sleeve.
If things go south, retreat immediately.
This eight-word mantra was the Power Demon’s heart of war.
It was precisely because this Water Demon had been recently promoted and didn’t understand these things that it had asked the Power Demon for assistance.
Would any other seasoned Fourth-level Demon choose a partner who was battle-worn but always managed to survive?
Under Link’s command, the Grande Sage Army took less than a quarter of an hour to fully enter combat status.
The so-called plan zero is to charge, charge, and charge again.
In space.
A Fifth-level Star Destroyer Fortress took the lead, flanked by two Fourth-level Star Destroyer Fortresses on the left and right, forming the arrowhead.
The three main battalions boarded interstellar battleships, forming into left, center, and right fleets behind the arrowhead, creating the arrow shaft.
A few supply and repair ships stayed at the rear, forming the arrow fletching.
The dart formation was now complete.
Link ordered, “The whole army, charge!”
This time it was a true all-out charge, the Grande Sage Army staked everything, launching an assault on the Abyss Demon Army.
Under the command of the Water Demon and Power Demon, the Abyss Demon Army did not retreat but met the enemy in echelons.
The Water Demon Army was in front, and the Power Demon Army was behind.
There seemed to be a snag, the link between the two wasn’t tight, leaving an opportunity to exploit.
Link spotted this immediately and teleported out of the Star Destroyer Fortress.
Plan zero was all about risking everything on a charge!
As the legion commander, Link would lead the charge!
