470 Hit and run tactic.
The moment the special ops unit had secured the perimeter, a signal was given to the majors at the walls which in turn was sent to prince Bryon.
The inscriptions as well as the city walls began glowing with a hint of purple. The thranium crystals in the large metal crates began levitating, before being pulled down to the surface of the wall.
Once the crystals came in contact with the wall, they began vibrating and those on the wall watched as the crystals melted and seeped through the wall.
“Go!” Major Reeves said as all the ash corps units made their way down the wall.
A group of them were tasked with clearing the area which included falling trees, pulling out their roots and transporting them back into the city to be used as lumber.
The second group was tasked with terraforming the area and protecting it. They set up protective arrays and weapons in case beasts were to attack since the wall weapons couldn’t be used.
Also, they used magic to change the land to a specified type, making the city walls expansion seamless.
Deep inside the forest, the mass killing of beasts and the falling of trees had alerted the kings of the Mina forest.
The king rank beasts had no problem with the mass murder of weak beasts, but the line was drawn when the humans began cutting down trees and destroying their homes and territories.

Although there were currently no emperor rank beasts in the area because of the beast tide that was not too long ago. The beasts were still confident in winning the battle because they had the environmental advantage, while the humans were out of their walls and lacked their war weapons.
…
With the use of air magic to cut down the trees, the ash corps had completed their part of the first stage of the expansion.
All that was left was for the wall to expand to a marked location before starting the next stage. So in the meantime, they kept their eyes peeled and watched out for beasts.
When it was getting dark, a group in the units were tasked to begin setting up dimensional tents, while the other was on the lookout.
Unlike during the beast tide when they were still within the city wall, they were forced to stay outside since they had to defend the wall.
“Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but the higher-ups felt it would be a waste of resources and manpower to go around asking everyone what they would eat. So they had given everyone the same meal which consist of rice balls and vegetables ” Camilla said as she met Blake currently sitting on a tree branch.
“There is no problem, I always come prepared.” Blake said as he began selecting what he was going to have for dinner from his dimensional space.
Camilla had forgotten that Blake had a rule of always storing large quantities of food in his dimensional amulet just in case something happened and they were stranded somewhere.
“Do you want some or are you planning to eat that?” Blake said as he offered her half of the cottage pie he had taken out from his dimensional pocket.
“Thanks.” Camilla said as she quickly put away the ash corps food and accepted the cottage pie.
“What do you think about the operation so far?” Camilla asked Blake as she stared at him munching at the pie.
“Nothing yet. If beasts were to launch an attack it would most likely be during the night time and not during the day.” Blake said.
The couple continued chatting, but after close to 5 minutes the alarms were heard in the camp.
“Hope whatever is attacking has said their last prayers.” Blake said in an annoyed tone as he had to place his food back in his dimensional pocket.
“I will be back soon.” Blake said to Camilla before going to the forefront.
“Sir, the sensory arrays have detected 26 elite rank beasts, 7 knight rank beasts and a king rank Koodron.” Radley reported in a bothered tone.
“As long as you properly make use of your battle arrays and elements, this would be like a walk in the park.” Blake said to his team before turning to the direction the beasts were coming from.
“Just leave the Koodron to them.” Blake said in an annoyed tone as they drew closer.
In less than a minute, the battalion of beasts had reached the special ops. The king rank Koodron scanned the area.
Their mission was to disrupt the process as much as possible. If they were able to wipe out everyone it would be good, but it had to make sure it wasn’t captured. That was why it was scanning for any threat.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOnce it saw that there were demigods around it, the Koodron ordered the rest to begin the attack on the humans.
“So this is the fool that decided this was the perfect time to attack.” Blake said as he saw the King rank beast.
The Koodron was a 5-meter-tall komodo dragon-type beast with rock-hard scales and had tall large emerald crystals protruding from its back. This was a sign that it had awakened the earth element.
“Make him pay for annoying daddy.” Blake said as he threw out Ebony and Ivory.
Awooo!
The 5-meter-tall Haiti and Skoll howled in anger as they turned to the unfortunate soul that annoyed their owner.
The Koodron felt chills run down its spine as it heard the anger-filled howls. Its instincts began screaming at it to run as far away as possible, and without thinking twice it turned its back and scrammed.
In the space of a second the Koodron had covered 40 meters, but even at that pillars of fire and ice shot past it.
In front of it were Haiti and Skoll and they were even madder than before.
