Chapter 33: Target of All
Chapter 33: Target of All
The two wom quickly processed the information in their minds upon hearing what Charles had said.
Firstly, the emy had substantial numbers and likely dect combat strgth, otherwise, their master wouldn't be mobilizing the tire Zerg force.
Secondly, the emy wasn't overwhelmingly powerful. After all, they could establish Zerg-nests and relocate at any time. Ev if they abandoned some Zerg, they could still rebuild their forces with the Armory and main Zerg.
Lastly, the emy was likely from the Contint of Overlord channel, giv that their master only showed such thusiasm for conquest on the contint, otherwise, he was just a lustful homebody.
In conclusion, their Zerg territory must have provoked widespread anger, or those clueless fools planned to gain something, leading to a collective assault.
However...
Catherine cautiously asked, "Master, are the emies from that channel?"
Charles didn't bother to hide anything. He nonchalantly nodded and said, "Yes, it's those bastards. About three thousand mid and low second-tier units will clash with our Zerg."
"Perfect timing. We hav't flexed our claws in a while, and people seem to have forgott about us. Let's use this coalition to cemt our position in the Sere Forest."
At this stage, an army of a three thousand second-tier units could practically sweep the battlefield like an invincible force.
But there was one variable... the existce of Charles, the Zerg Overlord.
With over t thousand Zerg units, ev discounting the non-combat worker worms, there were still thousands of combat units. After a month of developmt, their forces had become quite robust.
Apart from not having aquatic units for now, they ev had biological satellites!
With such power, dealing with those ragtag armies would be effortless...
After giving the orders, Charles waved his hand dismissively. "Alright, you two go make preparations. Catherine, you should also observe how Medusa handles things. Giv your dominion skill and information network, you ought to learn more about commanding units."
However, the two female slaves didn't leave this time. Medusa knelt down first, her face full of guilt, and said, "Master, is this calamity upon us because we slaughtered that Goblin Overlord last night?"
This matter itself wasn't difficult to guess, Charles was a rather gtle person.
Therefore, the two wom could freely browse the parchmts and understand a bit about the matters within.
However, Charles's gtless had its limits—except wh he was issuing orders or during intimate momts... At those times, the master was particularly dominant and assertive.
Of course, they didn't dislike it th, in fact, they liked it ev more.
At other times, he was a relatively mild Overlord. So, the only variable was the death of that tainted blood, which had brought about this calamity.
As for the concept of "red names," Medusa, being a native, didn't quite understand... After all, she was born in an era wh the Contint of Overlord had already stabilized, with major forces trched in their territories.
Hearing Medusa's self-reproachful voice, Charles didn't lift her up but instead, with an inexplicable expression, asked, "Medusa, don't underestimate your master. Do you think I wouldn't know about these things?"
"You're overthinking, fearing that your master will abandon you. It's merely an ant, ev if it brought a swarm of ants, what differce would it make?"
He had be kind to people before because some individuals were worth such treatmt, driv by interests. Now that he had access to the Global Channel, his transactions in the regional channel had significantly decreased.
Inside the box was a Bloodthirsty Zerg, peacefully asleep.
This was the fifth Bloodthirsty Zerg that Charles had specifically commissioned Catherine to produce for his research.
...
Sere Forest.
Within the campmt of the Overlord Grand Alliance.
Countless second-tier powerhouses from various races patrolled back and forth, their movemts accompanied by heated debates inside.
"Idiot! Megan Takeshi was a warrior of our nation. Since he is dead, it is only natural that we, the Sakura Nation, lead the charge for revge. The position of alliance chieftain should rightfully belong to us!"
"Oh, give it a rest. What can a tiny country like yours lead? If you're really capable, go solo against Number One. If not, leave it to our Lighthouse Nation!"
"I believe our White Elephant nation is the most competitive!"
The argumts continued, with no one willing to relinquish their claim to the alliance chieftain position.
They knew full well that everyone was here with their eyes on the Heart of the Overlord from Number One, making guine cooperation impossible.
What if someone from a particular nation became the leader and th st other countries into the fray first to weak their forces?
Giv the currt scario, they were almost certain of victory!
With over three thousand second-tier combatants, what did it matter if Charles had a few top-tier third-tier experts? Surely, one third-tier powerhouse couldn't annihilate three thousand emies, could he?
If the disparity in ranks was that significant, why wasn't there a similar gap betwe the first and second tiers?
So, this meeting wasn't really about discussing strategies to deal with Overlord Charles (Number One), it was about how to sure they and their countries got the largest share of the spoils.
Number One was a treasure trove that could make someone immsely wealthy overnight!
They were like a band of pirates about to set sail for treasure, vividly describing the outcome of their success.
But... they paid no heed to the fact that there was the Contint of Overlord.
Treasures existed, yes, but whether they could claim them was another matter.
After all, the deep sea held not just treasures but also sea monsters.
If Charles were to be giv a name, he would be the Krak of the sea monster realm.
An undefeatable, god-like sea monster!
And at that very momt, the first vanguard dispatched by the Overlord Alliance was already suffering an unprecedted ambush.
"Aargh! Quickly inform the coalition, there are remnants of Number One's Zerg here, all formidable second-tier tities, and there are... three hundred of them!"
The coalition troops wailed as they were slaughtered by the weakest of the combat units, the Zerglings...
