Chapter 486: Chapter 486: Capturing the Coastal City

The number of troops is too large. If these were regular troops, amassing this many all at once would be simply unfeasible. Logistics aside, even coordination among the troops themselves would be extremely problematic.

Even though these soldiers were produced via special buildings, coordination still took two days.

Similarly, the response from the opposite side wasn’t so quick either, not because they didn’t want to, but because they fundamentally couldn’t.

Such massive troop movements aren’t something you can just decide to do on a whim. Additionally, Kapala Island is currently under attack; they still have many areas that need troops, and it isn’t possible to dispatch them all.

Two days later, the integrated troops began their attack, leaving behind a large expanse of temporary camps.

These camps wouldn’t lose their function, as they were only the first wave of people to arrive on the island, with a second and third wave to follow.

Under the Commander’s orders, the troops moved forward in different previously designated directions.

"This battle should result in someone obtaining the Legend Certificate—then we would have our own Human Legendary Experts. But managing these Legends won’t be easy."

Fang Jie felt somewhat helpless—it couldn’t be helped, after all, he had developed the Human Faction’s forces for too short a time.

Previously, he had tried every possible means to ensure that some soldiers had their loyalty reach 100. But since they were living beings, once they became Hero Units, their loyalty would significantly decrease.

Raising it back to full wouldn’t be an easy task.

However, even so, their loyalty had still reached over 90.

Fang Jie had selected these individuals to obtain the Legend Certificate, confident that their loyalty would reach its maximum again when they did.

After all, if this sort of cultivation couldn’t increase their loyalty, that would be truly strange.

Yet, when they eventually ascended to Legendary Level, their loyalty might decrease again.

Fang Jie had no data on this aspect, but inferred that this was likely the case. However, even if it declined, the loyalty wouldn’t be too low—most likely due to his own affiliation with the Undead Camp.

Previously, Fang Jie didn’t hide this fact and had shown them his vast Legendary Army.

Therefore, even if they reached a Legendary status in the future, they surely wouldn’t dare rebel.

Then later, he would just need to find a way to cultivate their loyalty again.

Indeed, the Life Camp was troublesome, far more so than the Undead Camp. However, the development speed of this Life Camp was truly fast—it hadn’t been very long, yet many operational units and Hero Units had already emerged.

And these Human-born Hero Units had potentials and flexibilities far exceeding those of the Undead Heroes.

The only downside was that the Undead Heroes could be made to do anything, even constantly crafting materials without issues. But for these Human Heroes, unless at full loyalty, who would dare try such a thing?

Their loyalty would continuously decline, ultimately resulting in desertion.

Those around nodded in agreement, also very much looking forward to the appearance of numerous Legends from the Human Faction.

At this moment, numerous legions surged forward.

For the Human Faction, Fang Jie deployed purely Human Army forces, with not even Puppets being utilized. The costal cities of the Sea Alliance, being the most fortified and even the most prosperous.

Under normal circumstances, if a battle occurred anywhere, support from other cities would arrive almost immediately.

The cities formed a defensive line among each other, making them very difficult to breach.

But the amount of troops sent this time was too large; the cities were already overwhelmed, leaving no spare forces to aid others. Suddenly, all the cities felt a severe shortage of troops.

Such a scenario had not been anticipated by anyone.

After all, wars of such magnitude were indeed rare. Moreover, attacking such a top-level island was even rarer. But there was no choice, they could only withstand this assault now.

The airborne units, the Griffin Knights, were already in the sky, while the ground-based archers and mages awaited orders.

The standoff between the two forces continued, but the army itself didn’t stop advancing at all, continually pushing forward.

"The city ahead is their target, push forward and attack."

The army split, revealing their homemade siege weapons. These siege weapons weren’t products of specialized buildings, as Fang Jie didn’t possess such functional buildings—thus, all were previously made from wood.

But the cities on the opposite side weren’t any kind of functional buildings either.

Kapala Island wasn’t developed based on a powerful territory; thus, these cities were just ordinary ones, their walls constructed from stone.

Rune enhancements bolstered the city walls, yet the siege weapons also shimmered with runes.

The catapults hurled stones, with energy runes concurrently enhancing these stones. When these stones struck the city walls, they exploded like bombs.

"Bad news, take cover, Cavalry, charge out and take down those catapults."

Our own catapults didn’t have such long range, which left the troops in the city in a bind. If they allowed the enemy to continue their assault like this, there would be no need to fight at all.

As a result, the city gates swung open, and cavalry troops rushed out.

But the enemy also had cavalry; the Silver Knight Order and the Red Lotus Knight Order led their cavalry troops out. Due to the numerous Gold Level Troops, their strength far surpassed the enemy.

Seeing their cavalry faltering, city commanders had no choice but to send in reinforcements.

Thus, the siege turned into a skirmish.

But the city’s troops were no match for the external forces. After intense warfare, they were forcefully pushed back. Only a few cities could hold the enemy at bay, but soon, these too were overwhelmed by supporting enemy forces.

The cities could only watch helplessly as their walls were demolished, and then the enemy troops crossed the barriers, entering the cities to completely annihilate any resistance.

"Everyone, quiet down. We won’t harm you, but if anyone dares to incite the public, don’t blame us for being merciless."

As the army entered the city, people slowly began to realize that these troops weren’t targeting them. At the same time, the personnel specially trained by Fang Jie began addressing the city’s civilians.

Gradually, as they sensed no danger, the fear in the hearts of those city dwellers started to diminish.

But even though the fear disappeared, they still didn’t dare to wander outside as some unfortunate souls were still hanging from poles.
