796: Chapter 796 I Want to Leave Here
[Whew~ March is over~ I've finally survived another month and managed to get full attendance. The new book will start again next month!]
As a top-tier combatant, Caesar naturally wouldn't be integrated into a battle group like ordinary classes. Instead, enjoying various buffs, he was thrown directly into the monster tide like a meat grinder.
Of course, this wasn't just Caesar's solo performance.
There were also many legendary figures!
For instance, the Commander of the Second Battle Group—Skullcrusher Quinn!
Wielding a warhammer, he was a Level 101 Warrior! He was also a legendary figure and a super veteran!
Although his strength was not as high as the Level 99 Caesar, he was still not to be underestimated.
Then there was the Commander of the Third Battle Group—Mira, Eye of the Storm, a Level 100 legendary Archer.
Legendary figures like these were rarely seen in the various towns in the rear.
However, in the Land of Sighs, they seemed to be 'everywhere'.
Looking around, there were no fewer than a dozen such individuals!
They were all battle-hardened, having fought for years, and the number of monsters and Hell creatures that had died by their hands was no less than a million!
Under the impact of hundreds of thousands of monsters...
What seemed like a massive number was merely a daily occurrence for the Land of Sighs.
Here, there were no low-level soldiers, no cannon fodder.
There were only the backbone forces and top-tier combatants!
Furthermore, it was impossible for any recruit sent from the rear to come here if they were below Level 30!
And once here, as long as they survived, within a month, none would be below Level 50!
Moreover, every single one of them was a super soldier who had been baptized by fire, had personally slain countless monsters, and had hands stained with blood!
No one complained, and no one retreated.
Because behind them were the lights of ten thousand homes, their relatives, their families, and the last civilization of humanity!
They were humanity's last line of defense! They were also humanity's last hope!
Once the Land of Sighs was breached and this threshold was crossed, humanity's vast rear would inevitably fall into the flames of war across all fronts.
Since all the top-tier combatants of all humanity were gathered in the Land of Sighs, if the Land of Sighs fell, it would mean that humanity had truly reached the final moment of life or death.
The battle lasted only about an hour.
Hundreds of thousands of monsters had already been slaughtered to the last.
In this world, Rank is the most basic measure of a person's strength and the most fundamental numerical representation.
Those above Level 90 can basically be called 'Legends,' because surviving to reach this level is a legend in itself!
And those from Level 100 onwards are called Demigod-tier class holders!
This means they live longer, their skills are more terrifying, and their strength is even greater!
At the very least, they have the achievement of killing a Demon Projection, so calling them Demigods is not an exaggeration!
As for Caesar, the fact that he could hold the title of savior at Level 99 was purely because of that battle two years ago!
Over ten Hell Lord Projections, leading hundreds of millions of Hell creatures, attempted to break through the Land of Sighs.
During the great war, Caesar alone managed to break through the battle lines and charge into the rear, personally slaying six Hell Lord Projections! These were not ordinary Demon Projections! They were projections from Hell Lords!
Coupled with the other legendary and Demigod class holders, all the Hell Lord Projections were killed in the surprise attack!
Only then was that battle—which could very likely have resulted in the extinction of humanity—overturned!
That was the turning point of human civilization!
Because of this, Caesar earned the title of savior!
It was also a battle where, if they had lost, everything would have been gone!
But they won, and while the losses were heavy, it also paved the way for the rise of countless legends!
With the fight finished, countless people began cleaning up the battlefield with incredible proficiency.
A large number of monsters would be sent to the purification station to be purified, then butchered, stored, and turned into meat rations.
The butchered monster Materials were sent to the blacksmith shops to be forged into piece after piece of equipment. Whether it was to update the soldiers' gear or for surplus and replaced equipment, besides being kept as spares, they were sent to the rear to enhance the strength there.
It was equivalent to the front line using the better gear and the rear using the replaced gear.
After all, the rear was not a safe place either.
Various monsters or some small demons that smuggled through were weaker and harder to detect.
They were used for the people in the rear to train. The rear was not purely weak either; there were many legends there, either those who had to retire due to uncontrollable factors or those who had left the front line for various other reasons.
According to custom, a victory banquet was still held. There was no alcohol, but there were various drinks, and meat was provided in abundance.
Everyone gathered together to celebrate!
"What's wrong?" The Third legion leader—Mira, Eye of the Storm, this female hunter wearing leather armor that accentuated her long, sexy figure, approached Caesar with a heroic air.
"There are many good prospects among the newcomers, and they've grown a bit in this battle." Mira said to Caesar, "My battle group has recently been replenished with some people... Caesar, you look like you have something on your mind?"
"Yes... I'm thinking about the future." Caesar nodded slightly and said.
The other few legion leaders had also arrived at some point.
"Legion Commander Caesar, there's no need to overthink what the future is; that's a matter for the younger generation.
What we old-timers need to do is protect the growth of the younger generation and hold the Land of Sighs to the death!" The Second legion leader—Skullcrusher Quinn, this muscular powerhouse, said to Caesar while biting into a large meat rib.
There were a total of eight battle groups in the Land of Sighs, and Caesar was independent as the Legion Commander, leading these eight battle groups and serving as the supreme leader!
Besides the eight battle groups, there were also many small squads.
But the strongest and largest were these eight battle groups.
"I know, but it seems I've found a path... a path outside of the world!" Caesar said to everyone.
"Hmm?" The commanders couldn't help but turn their gaze toward Caesar.
"I need to leave this place." Caesar spoke words that made everyone's eyes widen.
He said this for no other reason than because, after a battle, his source points were still 0!
He couldn't stay like this, just waiting and waiting; delays would lead to trouble!
He didn't know what would happen in the future, but Hell was constantly expanding!
The otherworldly invaders were constantly increasing their intrusion...
He could clearly feel that humanity's struggle was becoming increasingly difficult.
This was a profound feeling from his over ten years of fighting here, especially after he became the leader. In just two short years as the 'savior,' he had already deeply sensed the danger hidden behind the scenes.
It seemed like humanity's top-tier combatants were increasing, and the Land of Sighs was becoming more secure.
However, precisely because of this, the unease in Caesar's heart grew more intense.
This single sentence from Caesar gave the legion leaders a real fright.
They subconsciously glanced around. Everyone was reveling, and since this was the area where the Legion Commander and legion leaders were, others wouldn't rashly crowd in.
So, they hadn't heard anything.
This allowed them to breathe a small sigh of relief.
The savior, the Legion Commander of the Land of Sighs, the supreme leader, and a top-tier combatant who had deeply won people's hearts over the years—the leader everyone revered was saying he wanted to leave!
Are you freaking kidding me?!
