Ric had barely finished speaking when the decision was set in motion. A few hours later the two thunder machines were loaded and ready, the remaining legions of Doom already sealed inside their holds. Their true objective was the Southern border; everything else had been carefully arranged as a diversion.Only forty percent of the legionnaires remained at the Eastern line. Their sole purpose was to keep the Starlight Dynasty occupied long enough for the main force to strike elsewhere. The real strength, sixty percent of the legions traveled with Ric and Morgana, aiming to seize the Southern border with far fewer losses than a direct assault would have cost.Morgana stood in quiet concentration as she fastened the last clasps of her crimson armor. The polished plates hugged her form without concealing the full, heavy curves of her chest. Ric waited beside her. Kahleen had already begun organizing the field hospitals, while Yan remained behind to anchor the Eastern defenses. The long-r

“Advance.”The moment the order was given, the legion officer immediately saluted before relaying the command to the Legions of Doom.The Southern border was already within sight.Morgana and Ric stood silently together, their gazes fixed upon the distant fortifications.“We need to take the River Port first,” Ric said as he studied the border ahead. “Once we control the naval port, the Empire will have no means of transporting reinforcements into the Southern Region.”Morgana's eyes lit up.“The trade routes will come next. We need to secure the major granaries and cut off the lifeline of the Central Capital.”Excitement flickered in her eyes as she imagined the coming campaign.Ric could not help but shake his head helplessly.Among his three wives, Morgana was undoubtedly the fiercest and most ruthless.Where others saw a battlefield, Morgana saw an opportunity to completely cripple her enemy.She turned toward the Legions of Doom riding at the forefront of the Thunder Machines and

Unit Two and Unit Three swept through the breached perimeter like a dark, unstoppable wave. Their blades glimmered beneath the moonlight as they fanned out across the courtyard, clearing the area before the Imperial defenders could organize a proper defensive line.The Imperial soldiers, many of them half-dressed and still clutching their weapons in confusion, were caught completely off guard. Some had barely awakened before the Legion of Doom was already upon them.Morgana leapt from the upper deck of the trailing war machine, her boots striking the cobblestones near the central storehouse. With a swift and fluid motion, she drew her sword just as an Imperial captain rushed toward a nearby alarm brazier.Her blade flashed.The captain's arm fell to the ground before he could reach it."Secure the perimeter! Don't let a single grain sack catch fire!" Morgana shouted, her voice carrying across the courtyard.The legionnaires responded immediately, spreading throughout the complex and c

The thunder of gunfire continued to shake the Eastern battlefield.Smoke blanketed the plains, mingling with the bitter smell of blood and gunpowder. The ground was littered with fallen soldiers, broken weapons, and shattered shields, while the relentless roar of flintlocks and crossbows echoed across the battlefield.General West stood atop the battlements, his expression grim as he watched the Legion of Doom advance with frightening discipline.Their formation remained almost flawless despite the chaos around them. Soldiers moved forward in coordinated ranks, firing their weapons before retreating behind the defensive line of their comrades. There was no panic, no unnecessary movement, and no sign of hesitation.The Imperial soldiers, on the other hand, were exhausted.They had endured volley after volley from the flintlocks and crossbows. Their defensive lines were beginning to weaken, and many soldiers were struggling simply to remain standing.Although the Eastern defenses were s

"Roland, move!"General West's roar echoed across the battlefield.But the warning came too late.The greatsword descended with terrifying speed.Roland's instincts screamed.He threw himself sideways at the last possible moment.BOOM!The greatsword slammed into the earth where he had been standing.The impact shook the battlefield.A deep crater appeared beneath the armored warrior's feet, while cracks spread outward like a spiderweb.Roland rolled several meters across the ground before forcing himself back onto his feet.His chest rose and fell heavily.A cold sweat ran down his back.If that strike had landed directly on him, even his armor would not have been enough to protect him.The Imperial soldiers stared in disbelief.Their commander had been forced to retreat from a single attack.Across the battlefield, the Legion of Doom remained completely silent.There was no cheering.No shouting, no excitement.The soldiers simply watched.To them, this was nothing extraordinary.Th
