Chapter 770: "The Old Marshal"
Chapter 770: “The Old Marshal”
Bern, the Beast Tamer Guild master, reassured Ainsley as he looked at Benjamin, the monster tamer guild leader.
Well, he didn't have such a strong monster just like Benjamin's as his pet, but his beast was also not worse than a sacred beast.
Other than not having a legendary beast's bloodline, his best beast is still as strong as the current Cellino.
With that, the group finished distributing the troops and spent a day preparing for war.
What they feared the most was the air troops and the marines, but Ainsley caught tons of flying-type monsters at night and made them into temporary troops to help their team.
Just like that, a day passed by, and early in the morning, the troops who patrolled the island suddenly blew their warming trumpet throughout the huge island.
TOOOOT. TOOOOT. TOOOOT.
Three trumpet noises. It means that the enemy is already here!
Ainsley and the others immediately woke up and prepared in a rush before running to the source of the trumpet.
The one blowing the trumpet was one of the night guards, and he's one of Ainsley's air troops.
After he blew the trumpet, he immediately contacted Ainsley and the others through the special Airpods.
"Boss, I saw the enemy behind the fog surrounding the island. There are so many of them…mostly air troops and navy."
The guard told Ainsley that the enemies not only sent flying-type monsters with their riders but also sent bombers. They used both technologies and special ability users.
The navy was also tough. They were all armed with cannons, and they could absolutely destroy the island's barrier if they kept on shooting.
Right now, the enemy was still far away, and that's why they didn't attack. But they would attack in fifteen minutes at most!
Ainsley's face was dark as she asked the guard about the enemy position.
"Uh, so far, there are only around 8 troops. Two coming from the North, two from the South, two from east and another two from west."
Of course, one troop was an air troop and the other troop was the navy. It was a pincer attack from the sky and the ocean!
Ainsley tried to stay calm as she directed the teams to go in those directions.
"8 of us should go to those directions along with the troops. Grandpa Ben and Grandpa Bern should wait for a hidden attack or something."
With this arrangement, they would face around 1000 enemies with only 200 people.
The enemies' number was five times their own troops, but with two big bosses leading the attack, it should be fine.
"Our goal is to minimize the damage on the island and survive until our reinforcements arrive! Leave the mine to Cellino. He will guard the mine and won't let anyone destroy or steal it."
Since Ainsley had said so, the big bosses nodded and immediately teamed up before riding their flying-type beasts or monsters to wait for the enemies.
They brought 200 troops with them and although most of them weren't the air troops, a majority were long-range attack ability users.
With this, they didn't need to wait until the enemy landed on the island to attack.
At the same time, the enemies had already approached the island and when they're close enough, the black beauty hidden behind the morning's thick fog slowly revealed itself.
The grand commander of the whole army, one of the Godlif Country's marshals, immediately spoke to all his 5000 people.
"The island is already right ahead. Air bombers, go! The navy can start attacking after you are closer to the island."
The marshal was sent by the government to take over the island and rob the Inheritance Stone mine for the sake of the Godlif Country.
There's no way they could leave such a precious mine to the mafias!
Right after the marshal spoke, the air bombers immediately circled the island and dropped the bombs.
Several missiles and bombs instantly went out of the air bombers' lower body and rushed to the island's transparent barrier.
Swooooshhhh.
The moment the bombs and missiles touched the barrier, all of them exploded.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
One explosion after another continued to bombard the barrier, so much so that half of the island trembled slightly.
Even the barrier had signs of cracking, and yet the air bombers didn't stop. They continued to hit the same weak spot over and over again!
Ainsley and the others who heard the explosion immediately reacted.
The barrier ability users fixed the cracked barrier while Jake, as the logistic team leader, sent the members to put more energy crystals to the barrier-producing machine.
An island as big as Pandora Island had more than fifty barrier-producing machines, and yet Ainsley only put some tamed monsters to guard those machines.
Of course, the monsters were all high-level or at least middle-level monsters…
And so, although the enemy kept bombarding the barrier, thanks to the energy crystal supplies from Jake's Port Island that arrived last night, the enemies didn't manage to create a hole in the barrier.
The barrier regenerated too fast!
After almost exhausting all of their bombs and missiles, the pilots reported to marshal with their backs drenched in sweat.
"Reporting, marshal. The barrier is still intact. The Sloan Family used up tons of energy crystals to continue fixing the barrier!"
The marshal knitted his eyebrows at such reports, but he kept his calm.
"Bomb more areas. Don't focus on just one area. Let's see if they can keep up with our destruction speed."
The marshal's low voice sounded throughout everyone's Airpods.
The marshal was already fifty this year but still looked as imposing as when he was young.
The government is really serious about taking over the island, ah!
