Chapter 622 - The Battle Of Unity Begins
Alec and his men rode steadily like unbeatable champions.
And as soon as those in their carriages and horses saw them, they quickly parked at the sides of the roads on the Pedestrian sidewalks.
Just seeing the mighty army marching forward, instantly made them realize why those Baymardians had told them to then back.
A war was coming!
A fierce one at that!
And to think that some of them had even cursed and accused these Baymardians of being insensitive.
Of course it was all due to frustration.
One had to know that some of them had been travelling for weeks and even months in their carriages and on horseback without even stopping by in Riverdale city.
So they too were tired as well.
But since they weren"t trekking, they could promptly make their way to Riverdale city and stay there for the time being.
But since Baymard had told them to come back the next day, didn"t that mean that they were confident about winning the battle?
They couldn"t help but look at the ma.s.sive army once more.
No matter how they looked at it, Baymard would lose.
So why were they so confident?
They silently made several prayers in their hearts, hoping that these incoming men wouldn"t dare to kill them.
As for those on horseback, they looked towards the ground in fear and couldn"t help but wish that they were hidden away in a carriage right now.
Dammit!
These warriors were really intimidating.
As for those within the carriages, they had long dropped to the carriage"s floor in terror too.
Their bodies trembled so much that their teeth were chattering nonstop.
And some of them even spied through the carriage curtains in despair.
Why?
Why had they picked such a day to leave or visit Baymard?
Sigh.....
.
As for Alec"s men, they sneered at these cowardly men in disgust.
They hadn"t done anything yet and had only looked at these men sternly.
But these men s.h.i.+vered even more and continuously looked downwards instead.
Pathetic!
Truly a disgrace to all men.
If they weren"t heading towards battle now, they would"ve definitely swindled some of the goods in those carriages and wagons.
The weak natured att.i.tude of these men reminded them of how f**king awesome and domineering their forces were.
It undoubtedly raised their egos higher than it already was.
"Klock! Klock! Klock! Klock! Klock!"
The steady rhythm of their horses soothed their minds once more, as they continued forward.
And soon, they could see Baymard"s magnificent walls.
"Your Majesty, we"ve finally arrived.
Now we can pay them back for what they did to us when we last visited." Said one of Alec"s most trusted aides.
Everyone who had previously escorted Alec to Baymard was br.i.m.m.i.n.g with excitement.
The humiliation they had suffered on that trip, was something that was imprinted in their minds and would never be washed away unless Landon died.
They had never been so disgraced and looked down on so much in their entire lives.
Even those who had peed on the spot when they had been tasered, all felt like settling this matter once and for all.
In short, they felt like it was their right to personally kill Landon with their bare hands.
Because now, some of their colleagues called them all kinds of weird nicknames because of this matter.
How hateful!
.
They rode for a bit in rage, before finally arriving on the open field.
Alex looked at the field for a bit before taking out a piece of paper from his pocket.
He compared what he saw with what was the paper, and nodded his head in satisfaction.
"Your majesty, are these the car statues that the scouts were talking about?"
"It appears so," Alec replied.
The statues that they were looking at, was very similar and at the same time different from the usual cars, trains and buses.
The statue had a very long nose, that looked like a tube instead.
And its wheels were funny, large and somewhat flat.
These statues were strategically placed on the perimeters and edges of the field.
If the field was rectangular, one could imagine several of them being placed on both widths of the field... And also along the length of the field that was close to the forest and roads.
Of course, the city wall area didn"t have any of them at all.
Anyways, from the reports that Alec had gotten from the scouts... these statues had been placed there for an entire month now.
Some people thought that they were there for advertis.e.m.e.nt purposes, while others thought that it was to showcase Baymard"s wealth.
But soon, Landon himself came out and clarified that they were just there for decoration.
Alec glanced at the "statues" for a few seconds, before focusing on his men once more.
They were just statues, so why should he pay too much attention to them?
But what Alec didn"t know was that these so-called statues would make him cry out blood later on.
While he sat on a stool provided to him, his men quickly removed the barrels of black powder from the wagon, and also took out several small tubes too.
Of course, they would fill up the tubes with black powder and make their marks against the city walls with them.
Some warriors quickly grabbed their armour from the wagons and hastily wore it instead.
And while everyone below ground was busy, those on the city walls were going over their battle and once more.
.
Oden and his family looked towards Alec"s Army silently.
No one knew what they were thinking about.
They all seemed lost in thought the moment they looked at Alec.
"Boy, are you sure that you can do this?" Oden asked sternly.
"As I said, it"s a piece of cake.
Well, I"m not the one in charge of today"s battle.
So all we need to do is watch.
I promise you all that you won"t be disappointed.
Now, we"ll just wait for Mr. King down there to hurry it up.
Oh... I also brought some snacks too if you need any."
"_"
All of them looked at Lanson speechlessly.
The enemy was about to invade Baymard and he was here talking about snacks?
"Hahahhhahhh... Just grab the snacks bro.
Trust me, the show will be good." Micheal said playfully.
And just like that, 29 minutes went by in a flash before Alec"s men finally made their move.
Good.
It"s showtime!
