Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 1443: Act on One's Own Accord

"That's Lamar's order, not His Majesty's. Do you think I have to listen to that clown's order?" Mirion sneered.

'"But the clown has His Majesty's authorization. Why would Lord Ganli bother to fight him? Besides, this battle is not to break Mokedan. More importantly, it is to force the Dark King to the negotiating table. So, Lord Mirion, you don't need to do this." Mirion said.

"What's the point of this war if we don't destroy the Mork Pill and kill the Dark King!" A foot of lightning shot out of Mirion's eyes, causing the entire room to tremble with electricity.

Ganli still looked lazy. He picked up a bottle of wine and poured it. He wiped his mouth and said, "Why is it meaningless? I don't believe you didn't see it. His Majesty doesn't want to force him too hard. In the end, His Majesty is not afraid of him, but of the Land of the Lost behind him. As for you, as a blind man, you know why you are fighting."

'"But Lord Mirion, even though your brother died at the hands of the Dark King, there's only one brother. We Barbarians are so capable of giving birth, so it's over to ask your mother to give birth to a few more brothers for you." After saying that, Ganli laughed so hard that he choked on tears.

A streak of lightning shot into the sky and directly split the temporary barracks into two. The earth and rocks collapsed, and the dust surged. Only the two generals remained standing on the spot.

The soldiers in the camp who saw this all looked at each other and quickly left. Whoever dared to interfere would simply not be able to live with his own life, let alone the two people standing there, how could they allow others to interfere with one hand?

Mirion's eyes turned blue to purple. "Ganli, I told you you don't have any sense of humor, so it's best not to tell these funny jokes."

"Isn't that funny?" "But I think it's funny, Lord Ganli. You're just too serious." Mirion reached out his fingers and dug his ears.

Mirion snorted coldly, and Ganli spoke in a relaxed tone. However, everyone knew how great the potential of a general who came into contact with the Void Origin Energy was. In time, Rupert would be an imperial general. Just imagine that the Mirion Clan had two Great Generals at the same time. Whether it was honor or strength, it was a great thing.

However, now that Rupert, who had boundless prospects, had died in Mockedan, how could Milion let him go so easily? Originally, he didn't have Mirion's name in the crusade against Mokedan. He had forcefully kicked out another general and squeezed himself in. The empire also knew what he was thinking, so they placed the power of command on Ganli. If Mirion wanted to do anything, he could only do it with his own private army.

"I'll tell you again. I understand. Let's go!" Mirion said in a deep voice.

Ganli simply said, "No, if you want to leave, you can leave by yourself. Don't drag me into this."

Mirion took a step forward and a wave of lightning snakes appeared beneath his feet, rushing towards Ganli. The latter's expression changed slightly, and a drop of blood fell from his fingers into the lightning snake. The lightning waves could not enter inch by inch. "Lord Ganli, what do you mean?" Said Mirion coldly.

"Can't you see what I mean?" Mirion asked, "Either leave tomorrow morning or hand over command of the army."

"You can give me command if you want."

"Is that so? If General Ganli dies suddenly, I don't think that old dog Ramo will be able to find another general to replace you for a while, right?"

Ganli laughed and shook his head. "Alright, General Mirion." You don't have to be so hard on me. That's right, I can't beat you. But if I want to run, I believe you won't be able to stop me. If you dare to make a move, I don't want anything. I'll immediately run back to Demoic Ring City. Of course, you have to go to Shadow Castle to explain yourself afterwards. "I'm just curious. If His Majesty knew that you wanted to ruin his arrangements for your own selfishness, would His Majesty still reuse you as he did?"

Mirion stared at Ganli, and the sky above the barracks darkened. Blue lightning snakes occasionally spat out from the lowered clouds. Lightning flashed, causing the figures of the two generals to become uncertain.

The atmosphere was extremely oppressive. Just as the soldiers in the camp couldn't help but roar to vent the pressure, the thunderclouds gradually dispersed. Mirion didn't say anything and turned around to leave.

Ganli smiled and drank another mouthful of wine, but the smile on his face disappeared after Mirion walked away. No one knew that his back was soaked with cold sweat.

The next day, Mirion brought his own private army and drove away three transport airships and 30 combat airships. Hearing the news, Ganli remained indifferent and smiled at the worried officer beside him. "Isn't this a good thing?" Lord Mirion, how noble is it to send out two thousand private troops to fight for us? "Of course, don't forget to send a detailed report on this matter back to Demoic Ring City. It's a headache for me for this lord to act on his own accord."

As he spoke of the headache, Ganli stretched out his hand and rubbed the chest of the waitress beside him in all sorts of strange shapes.

Almost ten minutes after Mirion set off, Alan, who was in Mokedan, received the news. Looking at the few lines on the spy report, he clapped his hands and said, "It's rare for the Great General of the Empire to send himself to the door and even ride over lightly. Whoever doesn't eat the fat meat that comes to the door is a fool."

He wrote to Hablola and the others to inform Hillon to gather his troops. At this moment, the Burning Legion was as efficient as a machine. In less than half an hour, the six thousand troops had gathered and boarded the transport airship in an orderly manner.

Moments later, 50 combat airships, four transport ships, and a thousand Poison Fire Vultures left Mokedan. Allen had only brought his Burning Legion with him, leaving behind the Forgotten Realm and the army of Mokedan. Apart from the old tribes like Hubble, there was also Twilight on the experts' side.

But against Mirion's private army, it still held a huge advantage.

An hour later, the two fleets met on the Starfall Plains.

The Meteorite Plain was located behind the southern line of the empire. This vast plain was said to be a mountainous area thousands of years ago. Until one day, the meteorite fell, and even though it was destroyed by the empire's experts, the meteorite fragments still caused serious damage to this mountain region. To the point where the environment in the hills had become as flat as a river.

At this moment, the two fleets began to enter the plains. Almost without any distinction, the transport ships on both sides began to drop troops and ordnance.

On Mirion's side, the bottom cabins of the three transport airships opened, and land war chariots flew down from the sky, smashing dust onto the ground, and then they began to rumble forward. Following closely behind the chariot were soldiers wearing dark blue armor. The low-flying transport ship was only a dozen meters away from the ground. This distance was nothing to the trained soldiers. After landing, they quickly formed a formation and used the chariot as a shield to move, following closely behind the chariots.

As for the battleships, they flew directly in formations. They were greeted by Mokedan's flying ship and the thousand Poisonous Fire Vultures. Forget about Mokedan's flying ship, the Poison Fire Vulture was definitely beyond the warrior's expectations.

It was not that there were no exotic beasts trained to participate in the war in Mokedan. Dobia had a legion of beasts. However, there weren't that many exotic beasts on the battlefield. Normally, there were several hundred of them. Moreover, the exotic beasts on Agares did not look the same. Even Mirion could not help but ask, "What is this?"

Of course, no one would answer his question.

The enemy and our air units quickly clashed.

The moment they touched, Mirion's air fleet instantly suffered heavy losses.

Mo Kedan had more warships than Mirion, plus those birds with triangular heads and spitting out miserable jade poison flames from their mouths. Mirion's fleet was far apart in number and firepower.

The scene of thousands of Poisonous Fire Vultures spitting out fire was simply spectacular. Hundreds of fire streams converged into a sea of fire. Those extremely corrosive and sticky flames landed on the enemy ship, and in a few seconds, they ablated the outer armor. Following that, many of the circuits and components exposed either stopped working or directly exploded.

Often after a sea of fire, a dozen fireballs would rise in the sky. With the Poisonous Fire Vulture coming and going like this, there weren't many warships left in Mirion.

As the Poison Fire Vultures fought against the air fleet, Mockedan's transport ship also flew at low altitudes. Following the opening of the cabin door in the abdomen of the ship, groups of Blaze Knights rushed out from inside and launched their charge when they landed on the ground.

Very quickly, the three thousand knights drew an arrow on the plain, and Hillon was on the arrow tip. This king had already used the Blazing Flame Armament. He stepped on the Blazing Flame Chariot and took the lead, leading the Flame Cavalry to charge forward.

As ripples swept past the cavalry formation, all of the Flame Cavalry's helmets spat out flames, increasing Hillon's basic abilities.

Seeing this, Twilight snorted.

The monarch who had provoked Allen was now riding a panther-like beast. It was a mount specially built for her. The beast was agile, but no matter how much it jumped, the Twilight Shoulder on its body didn't shake at all.

The two thousand throwers galloped behind Twilight. Although the throwers did not have mounts, they did not slow down. They followed close to Twilight like a tidal wave across the plains.

A shocking aura surged into the sky on the battlefield.

Mirion's heart skipped a beat when he sensed this aura. It was a mighty general-level aura. After that, Miriam saw three Datura flowers appear on the other side of the battlefield. He thought, "Not good." A majestic pillar of light crossed the battlefield and rushed towards him!

As soon as his head lit up, Hillon saw a beam of light pass over him and land in Mirion's army. As a result, a sun rose on the other side of the plain, and then violent attacks filled the entire battlefield. After a strange moment of silence, the explosion came late. The scenery on the other side of the battlefield was twisted, and a suffocating pillar of fire was roaring into the sky. Hundreds of spatial rifts were floating around the pillar of fire like black ribbons of light.

As soon as Twilight issued the Dark Flame Judgment, it wiped out most of Mirion's troops.

Looking at the damage report on the tactical board, Mirion's eyelids twitched.
