Chapter 1401

Ares let out a sigh before saying, “General Maples, you should know why I’m here. If you are keen on keeping our friendship intact, then you’d better leave the archipelago.”

Ragnar answered, “I’m absolutely fine with that, but now is not the time to do so. A subordinate of mine who has entered the archipelago by accident is missing. I am only here to track him down. I’ll leave here once he is found.”

His excuse was ridiculous and there was no way Ares would have agreed to it. “If that is case then you leave me no choice but to attack you.”

Ragnar gave him a faint smile. “The men of Lundr will never cower from a fight. If you wish to fight, then let’s fight.”

Ares roared, “Bring it on!”

He took a leap forward and the jump was so forceful that it made the ten-thousand-ton ship sway vigorously.

“Charge!” Julian thundered.

The elite soldiers he brought with him swiftly set off the speedboats as they invaded the first island.

The battle broke out.

Like a cannon ball, Ares landed him on the first island with a giant leap.

The moment he landed; he crushed a large rock.

The fragments of the rock flew everywhere and even crushed ten soldiers.

“Die!” Ragnar charged toward Ares.

Ares sneered as he lifted his palms to face the enemy. “Scram!”

Like a King Class Warrior, a powerful force unleashed from within Ares and charged directly at Ragnar.

Being a mere Platinum Archduke Class Warrior, the poor Ragnar was sent flying by the intensity before he could even reach Ares.

He vigorously retched up blood after he landed on the ground.

He was trembling with his face pale as ghost. “You have the aura of a King Class Warrior! How can this be? It’s impossible!”

“Charge!” Instead of responding to his question, Ares struck while the iron was hot as he assaulted Ragnar further.

Knowing that he did not stand a chance against Ares whose capabilities was way above him, he immediately bellowed, “Retreat! Men, retreat! There is a King Class Warrior among the enemy!”

King Class Warrior! These two words struck terror into them.

The Lundrian soldiers who were ferocious just a moment ago instantly lost their fighting spirits as they swiftly retreated.

Both Ares and Julian were quick to go after them.

The two men were secretly overjoyed in their hearts. Their plans were unexpectedly smoother than they had imagined.

Julian thought that the title of the Great Marshal was bound to be his after the battle.

Yet, he wasn’t aware of the blind spots in the battle.

Zeke, who had been observing the battle in a secluded corner, noticed something amiss.

Lundrians was known to be courageous and unafraid of death. It is unusual for them to surrender without a fight. Knowing their mannerisms, Zeke felt like it was a trap to lure them in.

However, Zeke paid not much attention to it. No matter what kind of traps you have, they’re useless in the face of true power.

Ares and Julian easily chased the Lundrian army out of Island 1.

After leaving behind a team of elite soldiers to guard Island 1, they continued with the battle.

Soon, Island 2 was recaptured.

Their battle was smooth sailing without any obstacles.

Then it was Island 3, Island 4 and Island 5...

In a blink of an eye, Ares and his men had recaptured thirty-five islands.

By now, the Lundrian army was chased to Island 36.

They were only one step away from victory.

With a confident attitude, Ares ordered Ragnar, “General Maples, I’ll give you a chance considering our former friendship. Retreat now and I’ll spare your life.”

However, Ragnar, who was backed into a corner just a moment ago, answered confidently, “Is that so?”
