Isaac wanted more than just reclaiming the three uranium mines.
Since Darkit dared to use Elliot and the Temple of Drakon warriors as a weapon to seize the resources of his country, snazzynovel.com intended to retaliate fiercely. He wanted them to feel the pain, to understand that Cynea was an entity not to be trifled with.
The resounding cheers of over a hundred thousand Temple of Drakon warriors echoed through the air. Isaac’s declaration about launching the campaign in three days had a purpose.
With two generals of the seven armies dead, one defected to the enemy, and significant changes in the numbers of Dusk Soldiers and Dawn Soldiers, a swift adjustment and the formation of combat strength were imperative.
A thunderous sound filled the sky as the House of Custos’ cargo airplane arrived at their location.
Airdropped supplies descended rapidly, and once the materials were secured, the massive army set up camp on the spot.
Dragon One had already coordinated with the House of Custos.
The radar systems of a nearby missile base were activated to ensure that the area within dozens of kilometers wouldn’t face any unconventional weapon strikes. The largest tent was pitched on the slope, with a meeting table at the forefront.
Isaac took his seat at the head seat. Lucas, Willis, and others sat on one side while Dragon One’s three members occupied the other.
Meanwhile, Hera and Todd sat at the back, listening in and giving the impression of being attendees at the meeting.
The atmosphere was somewhat tense, and Hera glanced sideways at Isaac. She noticed his serious, unique demeanor.
“Let’s get down to business. In three days, I’ll personally lead the troops to reclaim the three uranium mines and advance 200 miles into Darkit’s territory. That’s what I’ll do… The troops are currently in disarray, and the organization is in a mess. Janessa and Lightning are dead, and the tens of thousands under their command have become wandering warriors without a leader…”
“Do any of you have a good suggestion? I need to form a combat force in three days.” Isaac surveyed the room, and the atmosphere inside the tent became even more oppressive.
Lupinus glanced at Dragon One and opened his mouth as if to speak but hesitated.
At that moment, Lucas spoke up. “Drakon, I believe Dragon One and his team can fill the vacancies left by Elliot, Lightning, and Janessa…”
“The generals of the seven armies should not fall short. For example, Dragon One and Dragon Five can directly command the forces that used to belong to Janessa and Lightning. As for Dragon Seven, the rest of us can distribute some personnel to cover for them…”
“After all, they’re quite powerful, and with a bit of practice, they can.”
Mitchell interjected, cutting off Lucas, “I object. Dragon One and the others were previously part of the House of Custos’ Dragon Soldiers. They’ve always operated individually and moved in small teams…”
“We command tens of thousands of warriors, so our thinking is different. How can they get up to speed within three days?”
Two different opinions emerged among the generals.
All eyes were on Isaac, but snazzynovel.com remained silent, puffing on his cigarette and exhaling smoke continuously. At this moment, snazzynovel.com couldn’t dictate unilaterally.
Isaac glanced at Lupinus, who twitched his mouth in response.
Cough… Cough…
“Let me say a few words…” Lupinus coughed twice and addressed the group.
“We weren’t qualified generals from the start. When Damien fell in Neuport, Drakon asked me to replace Damien, and I had no prior experience as a general. Since Dragon One and his team possess the qualities of a general and have experience working in the House of Custos, it should be considered a plus…”
“Once they ascend to the position of generals, I think we can use their subordinates as backup forces if we can’t form a combat force within three days…”
“Drakon will lead the charge to reclaim the three uranium mines, so do we need to mobilize the entirety of Temple of Drakon? Mitchell, what’s your take on this?”
Mitchell lowered his head in contemplation, then smiled and said, “Since General Lupinus has come up with a win-win solution, I’ll let Drakon decide.”
