Ch. 1701..1710
The Return of God of War Chapter 1701
Bruce smiled and said, “There’s a saying in Erudia that goes ‘Do not attempt the impossible.’“
“Today, I have finally understood the meaning of that saying.”
“It should be the Erudia’s raiders who have been very active recently. They didn’t go into the East Warzone. Instead, they have gone to the West.”
“Haha! So, they changed their plan, huh? Too bad for them that our stronghold in the West is insurmountable. They won’t be able to successfully spring a surprise attack on us. It’s hopeless for them!”
“Now, they’re planning to do a frontal attack, but to attack with just those people? It’s ridiculous!”
The Ruling Union laughed at the futile plan.
In their eyes, Levi had made a very, very stupid decision.
Even Tobias could not believe the ridiculous attack plan.
“Grandpa, please save me!”
At that moment, a voice sounded.
“Huh? Is that my grandson?”
“Carter!”
The Medical Elite ancient family could not help themselves anymore.
It was as if they had all lost their minds.
On a mountain top in the far distance, Carter fell to his knees.
A black saber had been rested on his neck.
Carter screamed in terror.
“Save me, Grandpa! They’re trying to kill me!”
The Medical Elite grew anxious.
“Release my grandson right now! Otherwise, I’ll ensure you meet a fate worse than death!”
“Let him go or we’ll skin you alive!”
The Medical Elite and the rest of that ancient family shouted over one another.
From afar, Levi was seen stepping on Carter’s back. He held a saber in his hand.
He shouted across the distance, “It’s nothing personal. I just want all of you to see what happens to a traitor!”
“The entire Medical Elite ancient family have squandered the privileges given to you by the Dragonites. You are not worthy of being Erudians! You are all traitors, and I’ll kill you all without mercy!”
“No, no, don’t…” the Medical Elite shouted.
He seemed to have a sudden realization.
Carter felt death creeping closer and his fear intensified. He shouted over and over again in anguish, “No, no, no…”
“Damn you, you traitor!”
Levi raised the saber in his hand.
Blood splattered all around them.
Carter’s lifeless body slumped to the ground with a loud thud.
He was dead.
Levi sneered and said smugly, “Do you see that? This is the fate of a traitor!”
The other traitors who witnessed Carter’s cold-blooded death were shocked.
Each of them imagined themselves in Carter’s place.
Only death awaited traitors like them.
“No! Are you seeking death? My grandson!”
“Ah! I will kill you!”
“I’m not done with you all!”
The entire Medical Elite ancient family was mad with anger and grief.
They did not even wait for Bruce’s instructions. All of them rushed forward to attack Levi immediately.
Levi merely smiled. “Don’t worry now. All of you will meet your deaths today! Come on! One by one!”
The Medical Elite ancient family was shocked by Levi’s bold statement.
“Bruce, save me!”
However, at that moment, a desperate cry for help sounded.
Bruce was stunned to hear that voice.
It was his younger brother, Byron.
“Wait! Stand down! I am ordering you to stop!”
Bruce halted the Medical Elite ancient family’s attack.
He had caught sight of Byron on the mountaintop.
His little brother was kneeling in the exact same position as Carter had been.
Is Levi going to kill him too?
Cold sweat beaded on Bruce’s forehead.
“Calm down! All of you, calm down! Do not make a move!”
“Let’s talk this out. Calm down! Please do not kill anyone else!” Bruce shouted in a horrified tone, gesturing with both his hands at Levi to stand down.
Levi smirked and asked cruelly, “Would you like to bet on whether I’ll kill him?”
Bruce felt panic and fear rise in him.
“No, don’t! Please calm down! What do you want? Let’s talk this out, please!” Bruce pleaded.
“Okay. If you fulfill my one condition, I’ll spare your brother’s life!” Levi agreed.
The Return of God of War Chapter 1702
The entire Medical Elite ancient family shuddered at the deal that had been struck between Bruce and Levi.
What would Levi want?
Bruce nodded fervently. “Just tell me what you want. As long as it is within my ability, I’ll do anything for you!”
“You want your brother to live? There is only one condition! Kill the entire Medical Elite ancient family! All of them!”
Gasp!
As soon as the words left Levi’s lips, a gasp sounded all around.
How could he demand such a thing?
The faces of the entire Medical Elite family drained of all colors.
Kill all of us? Does he want to turn us against each other? He’s too cunning!
“This…”
Bruce was dumbstruck.
He hesitated.
Levi’s intention was obvious; he was trying to instigate a fight amongst themselves.
This would greatly diminish their collective strength.
He wanted to use Bruce to get rid of all fifty thousand traitors.
How can I kill them all?
The Medical Elite and all the council members of the Ruling Union turned to look at Bruce.
“No, do not do as he says! You must calm down! Do not act recklessly!”
“That’s right! They’re exactly like us now; a Ruling Union!”
Various voices persuaded Bruce.
At that moment, Levi spoke, “It seems your brother isn’t taking this seriously. I guess I’ll have no choice but to kill you!”
“Bruce! Help me!” Byron shouted desperately.
“I…”
Bruce moved, almost involuntarily.
“No! Bruce, don’t move! Stand down and think this through!”
“Calm down, Bruce!”
Everyone begged Bruce.
The Medical Elite began to fear for all their lives. “Bruce, he’s trying to sow discord amongst us! Do not be fooled by him!”
“Yes, let’s try to save everyone here!”
“Save everyone? What a joke! We’re so far away! My brother will be dead before Rank Six even arrives!” Bruce retorted.
“Bruce, don’t act recklessly. There must be another way!”
Levi’s voice called out again. “You have three seconds to decide!”
“Three!”
“No, Bruce, please save me! I don’t want to die!”
Byron’s fear heightened as Levi began his countdown.
Having spent some time as Levi’s captive, no one knew Levi better than Byron.
Levi was a man of his words.
“No, stand down! Do not be fooled by him!”
The atmosphere was tense.
Cold sweat prickled Bruce’s forehead. His vein was pulsating at his temple and his entire body was shaking with fear.
“Two!”
Bruce! Please save me! I don’t want to die! Bruce, please! Help me!”
Byron screamed. He was going mad with fear.
“Don’t promise him!”
“Calm down! Calm down! Don’t make this situation worse just because of one person!”
The Medical Elite and the others glanced at each other nervously.
All of them were in a panic.
Every single heart was beating wildly and every single one of them was breathing rapidly.
Among all of them, Bruce was the most frightened one.
His brother’s life hung on one end and on the other, the lives of tens of thousands of other people.
His mind could not quite fathom the decision in front of him.
Bruce’s face had turned purple as if he had been holding his breath, and his entire body was soaked with sweat.
He was shaking uncontrollably.
His fists were clenched tightly by his side.
This is an impossible decision to make!
Levi’s face was void of any expression or emotion. None of their lives mattered to him at all.
His lips twitched and he slowly opened them, “One!”
At the exact moment that he called out the number, the mess in Bruce’s mind untangled itself.
“I agree to your condition. I’ll do it.”
In the end, Bruce gave in to Levi’s demand.
He was breathing heavily.
Never in his life had he been filled with so much fear.
All fifty thousand of the traitors were collectively stunned by Bruce’s words.
Their faces all turned white.
The Return of God of War Chapter 1703
Bruce had no choice but to agree to Levi’s condition.
That meant Ruling Union was going to kill them all in cold blood.
Bruce drew in a deep breath and ordered, “Kill them! Kill them all!”
“Bruce! Please think this through!”
The council members of the Ruling Union begged Bruce desperately.
“No! They must all die for my brother to live! Anyway, their death means nothing! It’ll not weaken our collective strength! I am your commander do as I have ordered!” Bruce explained as he commanded the Ruling Union to kill the entire Medical Elite ancient family.
The council members were relieved to hear Bruce’s explanation.
They were glad to learn that the death of these fifty thousand souls would not affect their strength; they could still storm into Erudia.
“Kill them all!” the council members of the Ruling Union echoed after Bruce.
The Ruling Union’s troops methodically culled all fifty thousand traitors, including the Medical Elite ancient family.
The Medical Elite was shocked at the way things had turned out.
They had no choice but to fight again.
In order to survive, one could only keep cutting down the enemy in front of you, but they were surrounded.
In front of them, Levi stood with his men and behind them, the Ruling Union’s troops were taking them off one by one.
There seemed to be no way out for them.
“Uh!”
“Agh!”
There were blood-curdling screams from all around. In no time, the traitors fell to the ground one by one, all the life drained out of them.
Everything happened so quickly.
The Ruling Union’s allied army was closing in on them.
There was no escape.
Countless lifeless bodies littered the ground.
There were hundreds of thousands of men against just fifty thousand of the traitors.
It was a bloody genocide.
Bodies kept falling and began to pile up like mountains.
Blood was flowing like a bright red river.
The martial artists’ skills were frightening.
No one could hold their ground against them.
However, the forces of the Medical Elite ancient family were strong and they were successfully resisting the attack.
“Medical Elite, our only choice now is to retreat and escape!”
“We may be able to fight the Erudian raiders!”
They had come up with an alternative plan to stop fighting the futile fight against the Ruling Union.
“Everyone, retreat! This is our only hope!”
“Run!”
All of them ran straight towards Levi.
It was as if a madness had infected all of them.
They were killing anyone who was in their way.
Tobias and his men began to panic.
Although there were less than ten thousand of the traitors left, there were some warriors amongst them.
It was not easy to defeat a warrior even after they have suffered heavy losses.
At that moment, Levi spoke up again. “What is this? Do you want your brother to die?”
When Bruce realized what was happening, he panicked.
He had thought that he did not have to care about the men who had rushed over there.
However, Levi had used his brother as a threat again.
His heart hammered wildly in his chest.
“Kill them all! Rank Six, Rank Six, go forward!”
Bruce was pulling out his trump card.
The warriors all emerged, going directly after the Medical Elite and his men.
Rank Five and Rank Six stopped in front of the Medical Elite.
“Kill them all!”
Rank Five and Rank Six attacked simultaneously.
It was terrifying.
“Agh!”
“Ah!”
“Huh!”
The Medical Elite was unable to withstand the attack. Rank Five and Rank Six together were just too overpowering.
One by one, they fell to the ground.
“Agh!”
In the end, the Medical Elite was killed by eighteen men from Rank Six.
He was the last one to fall out of all the fifty thousand traitors.
The killing took the better part of a day.
Finally, all the traitors were lying dead on the ground.
No one could have guessed that it would turn out this way.
They had all surrendered and yet, they had still paid with their lives.
This was all because of Levi.
Bruce turned to Levi. “I have done as you wanted. The traitors are all dead. Let my brother go!”
Levi sneered. “Who said I would free your brother?”
The Return of God of War Chapter 1704
“What?”
Levi’s words stunned everyone, and that included those who were on his side.
Everyone stared curiously at Levi.
Is he going back on his words? That’s… not right.
“You lied! You…”
Bruce roared because he knew that he was conned.
“What’s wrong with you? When have I ever promised that I’d set your brother free? All I said was that I won’t kill him,” said Levi.
“That…”
Bruce thought about it and realized that Levi was right. The latter never mentioned anything about setting Byron free.
“You despicable, shameless assh*le!” shouted Bruce angrily.
Levi grinned and added, “Awh, let me tell you something even more despicable and shameless.”
“What do you mean?”
“I am a very reasonable man. I killed those traitors because they betrayed Erudia and planned on murdering their own people. That earned them the death penalty.
“Your brother is an entirely different case. He is just a thief, so the worst punishment he’d get is decade-long imprisonment. Death was never on the table. You may have sent someone to rescue him from jail, but that sin falls onto your shoulders. It has nothing to do with him, so I never planned on killing him.”
Everything Levi shared was true, and he was infuriatingly honest.
“Urk!”
Everyone was flabbergasted.
So he had no intention of killing Byron? This is all just a setup to con me?
One con was all it took to kill off all fifty thousand men the Medical Elite had with him. The Ruling Union suffered a sizable loss as well.
The mere thought of it broke many hearts.
That assh*le!
“I have never seen anyone as calculating or as despicable as you!” insulted Bruce furiously.
The martial artists were innocent idiots when compared to a commander with sharp and diligent planning.
Anyone who knew Levi would be aware of how reckless his fighting style was.
He had always been aggressive and assaulted his enemy endlessly.
In fact, he would make it an all-out fight, even if there were only two people on the battlefield.
However, that didn’t mean that he was an idiot.
He was still a commander who would strategize and could see the bigger picture, and he would minimize casualty as much as possible.
All was fair in war.
Levi treated friends and family with sincerity and honesty, but when faced with enemies, he would do anything to eliminate them.
That was the only way to survive, and that was how things were on the battlefield!
What happened earlier was a great example.
He didn’t need to sacrifice a single soldier to kill over ten thousand of his enemy.
To top it off, he got the Ruling Union to reveal almost all of their trump cards.
That was how Levi was.
No one was happy, even though they dealt with the traitors. They knew that they would be facing the Ruling Union’s wrath soon.
Everyone stared at the army spread out in front of them.
Fighting against them is equivalent to dying…
“Fine, well, congratulations,” said Bruce sarcastically before he added, “You have successfully infuriated me and will die now!”
“Listen up, boys. You are to attack and breach the fourth defense layer within the hour and break through the fifth defense layer in three hours,” ordered Bruce.
“Attack!”
Over a hundred thousand martial artists marched forward, and their number was so overwhelming that even heaven would bow down to them.
Their combined aura was enough to make the Earth beneath their feet tremble.
Seeing that, Levi put his smile away.
He turned to his men and shouted, “This is it, boys. The battle of our lives is nigh. If we lose, Erudia will most likely fall. Our homes will be demolished, and our family will be separated and homeless. Our lands will also become someone else’s property. So I ask you this. Will you allow them to breakthrough?”
“Hell no!”
All it took was a few words to inspire everybody and get them fired up.
No one was scared anymore.
Instead, they were ready to go all out.
“It’s like they say. Only the brave will win a war!”
That was a battle where the discrepancy in strength and number was too much, but it was also a battle destined to happen.
“Attack!”
The Return of God of War Chapter 1705
At the East Warzone.
Floyd and the others had been resisting and fighting for a long time.
“This isn’t right. Why hasn’t Levi shown up?”
Floyd panicked.
He knew that given Levi’s style and speed, the guy should’ve been there ages ago.
Why isn’t he here yet? The most strategic time to attack is long gone. Does he have something else up his sleeves?
“What is taking our reinforcement so long? We can’t hold them off for much longer.”
Pained moans filled the East Warzone.
Their casualty was simply unimaginable.
Just then, a piece of important news spread out and shook everyone to their core.
“I just received some horrible news. We’re really doomed!
“According to the update I received, the raiders had gone to the West Warzone. The Medical Elite ancient family, who had betrayed Erudia and deflected, are all killed!
“It is also said that the raiders didn’t ambush the Ruling Union. Instead, they performed a full-frontal assault. That is truly surprising.
“They are at an impasse, and a battle is imminent. The Ruling Union is a few hundred times stronger in terms of skills and numbers. In other words, the discrepancy between the two sides is obvious, and the result is predictable. The Ruling Union will soon break through the West Warzone and occupy over half of Erudia’s land!
They smelled danger—crazy, immense danger.
At that moment, every Erudia citizen was worried sick.
“Have they gone insane? The raiders abandoned the element of surprise and are fighting head-on?
“Most of the Ruling Union’s forces are stationed in the West Warzone. Their number of Rank Six fighters is a few hundred times more than ours! How will our warriors win that battle? They’re practically being sent to their graves!
“The West Warzone will be breached! Erudia is done for…”
There was hopelessness in the air.
At that moment, all anyone felt was extreme hopelessness.
The Dragonites had already sent out all of their experts, and they really had no one else to turn to.
At that moment, all they could do was watch quietly…
The discrepancy in strength was too much in the West Warzone, and it was destined to fall.
The East Warzone was hanging by a thread as well, and it would be broken soon.
Given the situation at the time, It seemed that Erudia was fated to fall.
Everyone assumed that the Ruling Union would win because it seemed inevitable.
The difference in their power is just that strong, and that is especially true in the West Warzone.
Despite the overwhelming odds, the warriors of Erudia refused to back down.
Their opponents were martial artists, while they themselves were just ordinary soldiers who weren’t a match.
Still, their enemies would have to walk over their dead bodies to enter Erudia.
That was the spirit burning inside the hearts of the Erudia’s warriors.
They stood there like a wall and waited for the enemy to come…
Everyone who abandoned Erudia citizenship almost celebrated with firecrackers upon learning the situation.
Erudia would fall, after all.
We made the right choice when we leave that country.
Everyone thought that Erudia was done for.
Even Floyd and the others, who were in the East Warzone, felt hopeless when they learned that Levi had gone to the West Warzone.
In short, no one thought that Erudia could win that battle.
They weren’t the only ones thinking about it. Tobias and his men didn’t believe they could win that battle, either.
Courage was the brightest and sharpest weapon in a war.
Unfortunately, their enemy was too strong.
It’s an impossible situation.
Still, everyone refuses to back down.
“Kill them all!”
Both sides attacked each other.
“Leave no survivor and rescue my brother at all costs!” roared Bruce angrily.
He pressed his watch, and a metallic armor sprung out.
At that moment, Bruce had practically turned into a superhero, and his power was equivalent to that of a Supreme Class fighter.
Technology could be truly terrifying at times.
With Bruce leading the army, they shot forward like a tsunami.
“Abigail, keep the Erudian banner up. Do not let it fall to the ground!” said Levi as he assigned Abigail her task.
Hence, the Erudian banner flew proudly at the highest spot.
Levi’s eyes glowed with murderous intent as he growled, “Today, I will show you just how strong I am.”
The Return of God of War Chapter 1706
Levi was the last to march forward, but he was the first one to reach the battleground.
“I will overwhelm this army!”
Levi suddenly flung his leg over.
Voom!
A scary force swept across his enemies.
“Ah!”
“Urk!”
“Gah!”
The invading soldiers exploded and became bloody mist.
It only took a moment for over a thousand martial artists to perish.
Hiss!
One simple move was all it took to get people from both sides to gasp.
They were so stunned that they paused instantly.
This dude is really something else. Does he actually have what it takes to win the battle by fighting head-on?
Erudia’s warriors instantly got inspired, and they forged ahead in the heat of the moment.
Levi was like God of Slaughter, and he stood at the frontline as he crushed his enemies.
“Ah!”
“Arg!”
“Gah!”
His devastating attacks turned every step he took into a mountain of corpses.
Crimson blood tainted the ground beneath their feet and the stench was nauseating.
Levi was like a dragon. He was unstoppable and had his enemy under his feet at all times.
The martial artists were nothing more than ordinary citizens when fighting against him.
Everyone died from a single punch.
So what if you have more people on your side? As far as I am concerned, they are just maggots. One stomp is all it takes to kill a number of them.
Levi’s ferocious attacks stirred and inspired his army greatly.
Everyone shouted and pushed.
Their enemy had more fighters on their side, but with Levi there, Erudia’s soldiers went on their own killing spree.
They managed to knock the Ruling Union off their feet, and as time passed, they become more and more aggressive.
The soldiers from the Ruling Union, on the other hand, were knocked out of their senses even though they had more people and skilled fighters.
“He’s that powerful?”
“He… what?”
The leaders of the Ruling Union were flabbergasted.
“Bruce, what do we do? You’re the commander, so what are your orders?”
Everyone asked and turned to Bruce.
Boom!
Boom!
Just then, behind the Ruling Union, in the direction where their base was… Is that an explosion?
Everything was shaking, and it looked like an earthquake was about to descend on them.
Bright fire filled the base, and thick smoke rolled out of it.
Boom!
The booming sound kept coming, and the base kept exploding.
Seeing that stunned Bruce and the others.
Most of their men were on the battlefield, so the base was basically an empty husk at the time.
However, the Ruling Union’s gadgets and tools were still in the base.
That included a metallic armor similar to the one Bruce was wearing at that moment. They also had a lot of secret weapons stashed there.
Those weapons were not important to martial artists, but they were crucial to ordinary folks like Bruce and those who needed them to fight.
With the base in a sea of fire, it was likely that the Ruling Union’s assets had all been ruined.
“F*ck!” cussed Bruce in a fit of anger.
The secret robots and weapons there were crucial to him, and they were supposed to play an important role in the future.
In fact, the mysterious lab in Zarain would come after him if some of those gadgets were lost.
The culprits behind the explosion at the Ruling Union’s base were the soldiers Levi led earlier.
He commanded them to head back and ambush the West Warzone from the other side.
Fighting head-on would only end up sacrificing their soldiers, but fighting from a distance would be extremely favorable for them.
Levi had his men use modern technology and fight bravely.
As suspected, the result was incredible.
We even blocked the way, so our enemy can’t escape.
“Kill them! Kill them all. Gather all Rank Six fighters and have them gang up on the leader. I’d like to see just how f*cking long he can last!” growled Bruce, who was so angry that he had lost his mind.
It didn’t take long before all Rank Six fighters from the Ruling Union gathered together.
The crowd was bigger than anyone could imagine.
The Return of God of War Chapter 1707
The Ruling Union assigned their Rank Six fighters in the following way.
Eleven were sent to the North, thirty-eight were sent to the South, but the West?
In fact, three hundred were sent to the West!
That was beyond anybody’s imagination, and people from Wildefield were having an especially rough time trying to wrap their minds around it.
They had always found pride in having one Rank Six fighter among them.
Yet, their enemy had three hundred!
And that didn’t even include men like Bruce, who were wearing armor to gain the power of a Rank Six fighter.
If those soldiers were included in the count, there would be over three hundred fifty Rank Six fighters with them!
“You have one mission, and that is to kill Levi Garrison!” roared Bruce with his bloodshot eyes burning with rage.
Levi was the only one who had ever faced a predicament like that after the Gods’ Promise was broken.
Three hundred Rank Six fighters were going after him.
Although… no… it would be more accurate to say that this predicament was rare even before the Gods’ Promise was broken.
Levi had to fight against three hundred Rank Six fighters.
How infuriating and strong would a person have to be to get himself in that much trouble?
“Kill him!”
All three hundred Rank Six fighters dashed over in an instant. Every single one of them was after Levi.
“This is…”
Tobias and the others were stunned when they saw how their enemy had three hundred Rank Six fighters with them.
This is way too much. The total number of our Rank Six fighters is less than twenty! How are we going to fight them?
“Boys, let’s stay strong with the Crown King and go all out!”
Levi smiled and replied, “There is no need for that. Leave them to me.”
After that, he turned to the Rank Six fighters that were going after him and taunted, “Come on then. I’ll show you who’s the boss here.”
Levi didn’t run even though he was facing three hundred Rank Six fighters. Instead, he pushed forward.
“Die!”
It didn’t take long before Levi and the three hundred fighters started exchanging punches.
At the end of the day, Rank Six fighters were still a little different from the other martial artists.
They were extremely strong.
With all three hundred of them working in unison, they were even stronger.
If all three hundred of them were to charge ahead before anyone else, they would’ve already destroyed Erudia’s army in the West Warzone.
However, none of them was willing to be the first one to go in the battlefield.
They were influential and powerful, after all, so why would they want to run at the front like those foot soldiers?
That was the first time the Rank Six fighters joined forces, and they only did that because Levi got them mad.
When the battle started, everyone thought that Levi would die.
“Hang in there, Levi. You have to win this war,” murmured Abigail.
She kept the banner up and prayed silently.
“Go tear that flag apart! Erudians love symbolic things and regarded those items as the source of their strength. That is so freaking hilarious!” ordered Bruce.
Rank Five fighters rushed to the top of the mountain right away.
Erudia was on the verge of falling, and its citizen was watching and waiting.
“According to the news we just received, both parties had begun fighting.”
“Do you know that the enemy had three hundred Rank Six fighters, and about five thousand Rank Five fighters! They are simply too strong.”
“Our soldiers won’t hold it. They simply can’t. The fifth defense barrier in the West will probably fall within the hour, and Erudia will be at our enemy’s mercy.”
A gloomy aura engulfed every inch of Erudia and everyone looked down and depressed.
Even the Dragonites couldn’t speak.
“Hah! Erudia is finally falling. We have long awaited for this glorious day.”
“Erudia of Bayview had been keeping us down for so many years. Finally, someone is going to destroy that country.”
“We should celebrate the fall of that country. Come now. Let’s throw a party!”
Every foreign country was excited and was preparing to party.
The Lopez and the Black families in Zarain were also enjoying their privileged and luxurious lives.
They were delighted to see that Erudia was in hot waters.
“Erudia is done for once the West Warzone falls.”
“When that happens, we will take Grandpa and Grandma over.”
“But… What if Erudia doesn’t fall?”
Logan chuckled and replied, “That’s impossible. Hell, I’ll eat my hat if it doesn’t fall.”
The Return of God of War Chapter 1708
Every other country in the world had zero faith in Erudia because the country was in such a terrible situation.
The difference in strength on both side was too great.
It was virtually impossible for ants to carry elephants away, and there were more elephants than there were ants on that battlefield.
That was why everything was so terrifying.
No one believed that the army in the West could last.
It will definitely be over in one hour.
The battle had begun.
Almost everyone on Earth had their eyes on that battlefield.
Half an hour passed.
The battle was still ongoing.
One hour came and went.
Yet, the battle was still not over.
That was when most were stunned.
Wait, it’s not done?
“That proves just how strong the remaining soldiers in Erudia were. They actually managed to hold their enemy off for an hour!”
“They will definitely fall in two hours!”
Time dripped by.
Two more hours passed, but the battle was still not over.
Everyone was utterly shocked!
Fighting the battle for over two hours… that was beyond what others thought was possible.
Could there be some unpredictable changes? Did things turn around for Erudia?
“No, that is not possible! How can they possibly survive that?”
“They’re just stubborn. Erudians are famous for being tenacious, after all.”
“Let’s wait for a little longer.”
Almost everyone on earth held their breath as they paid attention to the news from the battlefield and waited for the results.
Three hours… four hours…
Ten whole hours passed, but the battle in the West still wasn’t done. If anything, it had spread out and affected its surrounding areas.
That battle was simply too brutal.
“W-what is going on?”
“How can Erudia’s puny squad possibly last that long against the Ruling Union’s army?”
“They had over three hundred Rank Six fighters! Fighting against them has got to be a suicide mission. How did the Erudians hold on?”
“Could it be… they get someone else to help them? Does Erudia have something else up their sleeves?”
The foreigners weren’t the only ones who were surprised.
Even the Dragonites were stunned as well.
As far as they knew, Erudia only had that small portion of soldiers left.
They wanted to send reinforcements, but there simply wasn’t anyone around.
What kind of men are the raiders? How did they manage to fight against an army that is several times stronger than they are? D-do we actually have a shot at winning this?
Almost twelve hours had passed.
The battlefield had turned into purgatory on Earth, and the death toll from both sides was immense.
At first, some Rank Six fighters went after Levi, then the remaining Rank Six fighters and all the five thousand Rank Five fighters ganged up against Levi.
Those fighters were terrifying and powerful.
When gathered together like that, they had the power to move mountains.
Yet, to everybody’s surprise, Levi actually managed to keep up with them.
On top of that, he stood in front of the Erudian banner and made sure that no one could even get close to Abigail.
At first, both sides were fighting as usual, but as time passed, everyone noticed that Levi was fighting the mass all on his own.
He was like a deity sent from heaven.
One hour went by, then the second hour passed…
Time kept dripping by, and the Ruling Union’s Rank Six and Rank Five fighters kept falling.
There was death everywhere.
Levi punched every single one of them, and he killed so much that his eyes were bloodshot.
He came through despite the overwhelming number of Rank Six and Rank Five fighters.
The battle lasted for twelve whole hours and the sun had set by then.
Levi kept going and going.
He never paused or rested for a second.
By then, Levi was already covered in blood, but his enemy’s blood kept spewing all over him, anyway.
It got to the point where even the soil in that area had turned crimson red.
The uneven spots on the ground had become pools of blood that were threatening to combine and form a repulsive river.
“Ah!”
The last fighter fell, and Levi had officially killed off every single one of the Ruling Union’s Rank Five and Rank Six fighters.
Naturally, that was exclusive of Bruce and his men, who were commanding the army from behind.
He is like a god and defeated an army all on his own. He actually did something that only happens in myths!
The Erudian banner kept flying in the air, but the Ruling Union had become quiet.
The Return of God of War Chapter 1709
It was done!
The Ruling Union’s martial artists were slowly dissipating.
First, it was the total annihilation of Rank Five and Rank Six fighters, but as time passed, the other martial artists fell as well.
With Levi in command, the raiders of Erudia crushed their enemies easily.
He was way too strong.
Bruce couldn’t even imagine, but a single lad had destroyed the Ruling Union’s allied army.
The battle was still ongoing.
Three hours later, the Ruling Union was completely obliterated.
The army of a few hundred thousand men had fallen.
Unfortunately, Erudia suffered a great loss as well.
About three-quarters of their men had died and most of the survivors were wounded.
Tobias, Bernard, and their comrades were barely hanging on as well.
“Help, come quick!”
Cries for help echoed in the mountain range.
Levi had a cruel expression on as he forged ahead menacingly.
All that was left of the Ruling Union was Bruce and the other high-rank officials.
They fled earlier when they saw that things were progressing unfavorably for them.
Levi chased after them and eventually met up with the army of four hundred thousand men.
Unfortunately, he couldn’t catch up to Bruce and the others, whose armors allowed them to fly and came with camouflage technology.
That allowed them to bypass all the radars and sensors.
“Gah, it’s fine. Who cares if the few of them escaped?”
Levi didn’t really pay much attention to that because they had already won the war in the West Warzone.
What Levi truly wanted to do at that moment was to thank the old man.
If it hadn’t been for the guy, Levi would not be that strong, and Erudia would have fallen.
The battle might have lasted longer than anticipated, and Levi might be covered in blood, but those were not the scariest bit.
The scary part was that Levi wasn’t injured at all.
Who would’ve thought that he would get out of a huge battle like that without a scratch?
He was no longer the same man he used to be.
He would still win the war, but that version of him would be wounded or have died.
The new version of him, however, didn’t even have a scratch.
Levi went to Abigail after he returned to the Warzone.
She had been holding the flag for over ten hours, so she was totally exhausted.
“We won!”
“Erudia won!”
Everyone cheered and cried tears of joy.
They risked their lives to squeeze out that victory, and it was precious.
“By the way, where is Byron?” asked Levi, who noticed that Byron was missing.
“Oh, no! He must’ve slipped away during the battle because we were too busy to keep an eye on him.”
The others had just noticed that.
Byron’s escape was not anybody’s fault, though.
The battle lasted for over ten hours, so it was understandable that no one paid attention to him.
“He escaped? Huh, okay! He should know something, though. I caught him once, and I can do it again. Once this war is over, I will fly over to Zarain in person and drag him back to jail in front of all his countrymen. Byron, you will never be rid of me!” scoffed Levi.
“What do we do now?” asked the others.
“I have to go to the East Warzone now. It’s likely that Floyd and his men can’t last much longer,” replied Levi, who didn’t stay a moment longer.
He rushed to the East Warzone right away.
That was an important spot as well, and it might actually be worse for the country if their enemy broke through.
It was close to Oakland City, after all.
The entire world had their eyes on the battle in the West Warzone.
The battle lasted for fifteen long hours, but everyone saw how the Erudian banner remained dancing in the air…
Smoke seeped out of the sea of fire burning over there, and it threatened to paint the sky into a permanent red.
However, it was finally over.
Erudia managed to hold on for over fifteen hours? That is incredible! How persistent and firm did they have to be to keep fighting for so long?
So what’s the verdict? How did things end? Are the Erudian raiders done for? Will the Ruling Union march into Erudia’s territory and occupy them?
The Return of God of War Chapter 1710
Everyone was waiting for the news from the West Warzone, but nothing came.
No one could approach the Warzone either, so they couldn’t investigate.
Bruce and his men were fleeing at the time.
Everyone looked terrible.
We have failed…
They planned for years, but it was all for naught, and every single one of them was upset about it.
No, we can’t let things end like this!
“No, we will not admit defeat just like that! We still have some forces in the East Warzone, and Jared’s Deicide is still operational. A portion of our power remains, and we still have a shot.”
“Yeah! Plus, we have people supporting us from behind the scenes, so we can’t let this opportunity slip out of our hands.”
Bruce was one of the people who refused to admit defeat.
“What do we do now? We have to get back at them for this!” said Byron.
“We’ll initiate our second plan and attack Oakland City directly. Victory will be ours so long as we destroy the city. Send some men over right away and implement the second plan! Hurry and do it as quickly as possible. Ambush them before they figure anything out,” growled Bruce.
He had gone completely and utterly insane.
He added, “And call Jared! Tell him to bring all his weapons over and let him know that he can ask for anything he wants. All I want is for him to reveal his trump card! Now, hurry over to the lab and retrieve the final and best weapons.”
……
Bruce had really lost his mind, and so were the others.
They were very close to victory, so they wanted to go all out and use everything they had at their disposal.
“If it comes to it, I will use that weapon too,” said Bruce as he panted.
“C-calm down! Things will be too terrifying if we use that weapon. We can’t deal with the consequences of using that weapon, so no matter what, we won’t use it.”
Bruce’s team opposed fervently as soon as he suggested using that weapon.
It didn’t take long before the East Warzone received Bruce’s message.
Lee Jong-guk, Jared, and the other high-rank officials of the Ruling Union were all flabbergasted.
We lost the battle in the West? Most of our forces were focused there, so how is that possible?
Bruce told them that the East Warzone was the Ruling Union’s last hope. He also ordered Jared to reveal all secret weapons and use everything at his disposal.
In exchange, Bruce would grant Jared anything the latter wanted.
“Okay, write up the contract and sign it. I will show you everything I have after that!”
In the end, Jared laid his terms and signed the contract as well. He even made the others grant most of his wishes on the spot.
Then, as promised, Jared showed them all the weapons and trump cards he had up his sleeves.
“Hurry! Faster!”
Jared’s weapon would be brought to the battlefield as soon as possible.
“Don’t worry. We will win this war. I will be using the upgraded version of my Deicide, so it won’t matter how powerful their fighting expert is. We will kill him, anyway,” claimed Jared confidently.
I wasn’t planning on showing this to everyone just yet, but what the hell?
The scariest bit of all that was the simple fact that the upgraded version of Jared’s Deicide actually existed.
It was rumored to be so strong that it could kill Rank Six fighters, but it had never been officially tested.
That made sense since there was no way any Rank Six fighter would let him experiment on him.
After receiving the news, Jared and his team planned for the most aggressive attack on Floyd’s team.
They needed to break through the East Warzone before Levi reached the place.
On the other hand, Bruce’s experts had departed for Oakland City.
They would destroy the prominent organizations in the city and deal a devastating blow to paralyze Erudia’s spirit.
That was the most dangerous moment of the war.
Levi knew that things would be bad, so he was rushing to the East Warzone as quickly as he could.
He sped ahead.
Unfortunately, a group of people barred his path as he rushed over.
“Your journey stops here!”
