Lord of the Truth

717  Welcoming

*Sshhhh*

The spacecraftʼs main gate slowly opened and two individuals appeared behind it

One of them was holding his hands behind his back. He was more than two and a half meters tall and had pale skin with snake-like features, That person took a deep breath as soon as the gate opened, ”When you said that you had found a planet that could be the new capital of our majestic Empire, I doubted your words, but after seeing this place for myself... Amazing! Whatʼs the matter with this energy? If it gets any denser I can use it to swim!”

”I know, General Sully, that you doubted my report, you have already submitted a request to have me put into military jail for lying, but the request was rejected.” The person behind him spoke with a forced smile. He was as tall as a human and his features were also close to human, but he had pale skin and eyes as sharp as a snake. It was Bandal, a member of the Vanguard squad who had gone to call for backup. ”May I ask what are we doing here? We have to quickly go to the location that Vanguard has secured and prepared for the arrival of the army, you are throwing their hard work away! Donʼt let your personal problems with Chief Segal prevent you from making the right decision.”

”Tsk~ If it were another distant planet, I would have listened to you, but look at this place! Ever since we came out of that wormhole, I have been in awe... Its size is abnormally huge, almost five times that of our home planet, it has the advantage of creating energy pearls, and its atmosphere contains energy dense enough to feel on your skin, on top of all this, you mentioned in your report that the inhabitants of the planet are mere savages, and there does not seem to be a central authority? No, no, this place is a dream... It is too good to be true!!” General Sully opened his arms and floated out of the ship with a smile. The gravity pulled him several meters before he could balance his body again. Then he laughed, ”Haha, oh my heavens, the gravity here is irrationally strong! We have to convince the Emperor to somehow open the treasury and buy a cultivation technique for Grivity... if We trained a legion of Gravity users and stationed them here. We will have an impenetrable fortress that no other Planetary Empire would want to mess with us. This place is perfect in every way!!”

 Then he looked at Bandal as if he were looking at a fool. ”Doing great feats while subjugating this planet will undoubtedly earn me the rank of Marshal! I, Sully, will finally become Marshal Number Ten!!! But if I land there, it will be said that I used The base that the elite Unit No. 7 built as a starting point, and this will belittle my achievements and raise the value of your lowly unit, why would I give that bastard Seagal such an achievement on a silver platter? Let him burn with the rest of his clowns in the middle alone and I will over from the sides, haha.” The General laughed loudly and then looked at Pandal with a smile, ”Of course, no one should hear about this, huh? Weʼll say that the planetʼs strong gravity landed us here by accident.”

”...By coincidence? How could the fleet be divided and half of it landed in the West while the other in the East by coincidence?!” Bandal looked away

”Are you saying something, Bandal?” The General turned to him with some anger

”No, no... I think Commander Seagal is the one who should come and join us quickly!” Bandal panicked and quickly responded

”Haha right!” Sully patted him on the back, ”You are smart, Bandal, and the fact that you have achieved such power and status with such a small share of Durger the Devourerʼs blood speaks volumes about your true potential. My offer is still open to you, Join me and I will make you a lutanit immediately and triple your blood share. Do you know what this means? You will have enough blood to establish your own noble bloodline.”

Bandal took a step to the side, ”I will seriously consider the offer.”

The General fixed his eyes on Bandal for a few seconds and then shook his head, ”You want to consider an opportunity to take an increased dose of Durgerʼs blood? Hesitating about something that will open up limitless horizons for you and your entire bloodline after you? Forget it then, it seems that Seagal is not the only idiot in that group Hmph.”

”Itʼs not like you have the authority to grant Durger the Devourerʼs blood anyway...” Bandal looked to the side again and spoke in a low voice.

”Stop mumbling, you bastard, and go with the men. We have a lot of work today, haha.” Sully laughed loudly and then shot a signal toward the sky

*Vrooooomm*

More than twenty spacecraft behind him began to turn in a different direction each and take out the cannons

Then the general announced, ”According to the geographical configuration of the planet, we are now in the Eastern Region, while my deputy Kisha has been appointed to the Western Region, along with half the fleet. If he ends the subjugation of the Western Region before us, all of you will be severely punished, understood?!”

”Yes!” The soldiers in all the spacecraft shouted, then entered their spacecraft again and closed all doors and windows, preparing for a massacre

They all knew that now was the moment of truth, now was the time for real bloodshed.

Even Bandal furrowed his eyebrows and lifted his weapon, preparing for a massive battle... He did not know what happened with his leader and the rest. He had been sent to bring support at the moment they landed on the planet, so he did not see the battles they entered and did not know what was happening in the central region. Even if he spent a hundred years thinking, he would never guess what was going on.

The landing of the vanguards is to test the pulse, choose and secure a good landing site for the army, and perhaps communicate with the locals to collect information and recruit some traitors to facilitate the invasion, but the landing of the first fleet is followed by the real war against the local population.

As usual, the 20 spacecraft form a large ring with the face of each spacecraft facing outward, and then all of them advance slowly to attack anything that moves... This strategy came from experiences that the Empire accumulated over thousands of years and after the invasion of 9 planets.

This strategy is really cruel, but it sweeps the entire area and gives the armyʼs General the whole picture. If one of the spacecraft happens to receive any opposition, then he would increase support there. It also informs the locals in other areas that there is no room for negotiation and that they must submit in order to gain the opportunity to live.

Blood will inevitably flow today, but within a few hours the flags of the Great Serpent Empire will be raised over a large part of the planet, and everyone will tremble at the sound of this name.

”Haha good,” General Sully laughed loudly, then raised his face towards the sky and raised both hands, ”I, General of the Fourteenth Fleet, announce... The Tenth Saga has begun!!”

*BOOM*

Immediately after the general finished making his announcement, he heard the sound of an explosion. His eyes automatically turned toward the source of the sound, and he found one of the fleetʼs spacecraft hugging the ground, smashed.
