Chapter 2775 Awaiting Sacroria
Black Hawk was impressed with Levi’s foresight to invoke the name of Sacroria.
Smythe and the other high-ranking officials must have received orders to await the appearance of Sacroria before giving the command to act! Zarain will dive into battle at the moment Sacroria reveals himself. That must have been the plan all along, to fight Sacroria the moment he appears. It’s all clear now!
At that moment, the attacks on the harbor had not cease.
The Defenders of the Galaxy became enraged by the provocation.
“Diviniteria does not respect us at all! They will pay for this! Defenders of the Galaxy, attack! We will smite them for their insolence!”
The Defenders began to plan a large-scale invasion into Diviniteria.
Smythe and the others stood up. “Remember to bring along the equipment we have prepared for Sacroria,” they said to each other with knowing winks.
Black Hawk was stunned at the words.
They really were waiting for Sacroria all this time. Everything that they have been preparing was for Sacroria’s appearance. They even have specialized equipment!
Fearing for Levi’s safety, Black Hawk sent a surreptitious text to get him to evacuate as he was aware that the plan to use Diviniterian weapons to attack the Zarain coast was Levi’s.
He was right. At that moment, Levi and his group had been watching the Divine Brigadier of Zarain leading his party.
Not too long ago, the Divine Brigadier had finally received Levi’s order for him to lead a group of men to the base camp of Diviniteria to raid their armory and use the weapons against Zarain.
On top of that, they were to join forces with Black Hawk with the aim to force the Zarain faction into action.
Contrary to how it appeared, Levi did not intend for Zarain to attack Diviniteria. Instead, his main aim was to mobilize Zarain’s military might in the hopes of forcing Sacroria to reveal themselves.
It was in that slow and methodical manner that Levi had achieved the goal of forcing the battle in his favor with three steps.
The first was to conjure an image of the Ecclesiastic Order and the Esoteric Guild’s involvement to play on the suspicions Diviniteria had about Forlevia to strengthen the credibility of the myth.
Next, the base camp of Diviniteria was invaded in a deliberate provocation toward the entire nation.
Finally, the assault upon the coastal regions of Zarain served to instigate the Zarain faction, a thorn in Diviniteria’s side, into battle.
With all of these measures in place, it would be impossible for Sacroria to remain in hiding for long.
The Defenders of the Galaxy took off with their cavalry after twenty minutes.
Upon the vanguard’s arrival on the battlefield, a roar erupted from the combatants.
Even the Zarain faction is here! Never before seen in the history of the world! It is now a world war!
“What?” Mr. X exclaimed in a panic upon learning of the news. “The Defenders of the Galaxy are here as well? They’ll arrive at our rear soon, you say? We’re in trouble!”
“Inform Sacroria at once!” he ordered, suppressing his fear through sheer force of will. “The Defenders of the Galaxy are here! We will be overrun unless they show themselves!”
For the first time, the forces of Diviniteria began to doubt the impossibility of their defeat.
The torrent of messages that came in did little to reassure them.
The Ecclesiastic Order and the Esoteric Guild are here. Even the Defenders of the Galaxy had joined the fray! The war is truly about to begin.
Mr. X glanced at Forlevia whose movements were beginning to slow down. “Her pill is losing effectiveness!” he shouted at once. “Let’s take her down!”
Given the sudden turn of events, it became more urgent than before for the Gods to subdue Forlevia. They intended to understand the Ecclesiastic Order and its weaknesses via Forlevia before Sacroria had to face them.
Only by doing so will we have a chance of winning this war. Dr. Erebus is scheduled to arrive at any minute. Once the girl is apprehended at the moment of the doctor’s arrival, the work of locating the weakness of the Ecclesiastic Order can commence at once. When Sacroria arrives, the knowledge can be put to use immediately.
