The Imbecile Lord Is Married to Five Beautiful Goddess-Novel
373 Chapter 372Alex had taken the shortest route possible to the rear which had been filled with danger but even after all of this, he was a step late.
He had always thought of the worst possible outcomes but this was even out of his expectation.
The Western Garrison units were in ruin. Bodies of soldiers were scattered everywhere.
As soon as he found some survivors, he quickly ordered everyone to clear out the remaining enemies and rescue the survivors as soon as possible.
Max and Aeon quickly took the charge and ordered the troops to spread around.
Rescuing and finding the reminding warriors took precedence over the killing.
Alex and Riya cleared out the ones inside. They found the corpse of Arkham soldiers lying inside but most of them belonged to Kinley and Alex could see the tactic of Arkham soldiers worked well.
Cutting the reserve forces of Wester Garrison was akin to cutting off the root.
Alex was greeted by the sight of the familiar people who had trained with him.
He soon found Johnson along with a few people near the training field surrounded by enemies.
All of them were exhausted and their armour was in tatters.
Hearing the sound of Alex and Riya's steps, a commotion broke out among Arkham soldiers.
"What!!! Reinforcements are already here?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"How is this possible?"
The Arkham soldiers were startled and they grasped in the cold air as Alex and Riya walked alone.
"But where are they?"
One of them questioned but it didn't take too long for them to find out as soon as Alex and Riya appeared before with the swing of their weapons, the heads of Arkham soldiers started to separate one by one.
Arkham soldiers were bewildered as according to their calculations no reinforcements should have arrived here as the Defence line was attacked and they were still in a fierce struggle against them so it made no sense for them to get here.
Johnson, who was already in his last breath, was fighting fiercely trying to save the young soldiers behind him.
He was trading blows against the blows that were bad. He had gained big cuts all over his body. He had been using one hand to cover the abdomen to stop his organs from falling while using the other to strike the enemies.
But he was perplexed to notice that the enemy soldiers' influx decreased and they turned back to point their blades towards a person filled with hostility.
Johnson along with the others was stunned for a moment as Alex took turns looking at them
'Thank la heaven! He is still alright.'
Although Alex was drenched in blood and his face looked haggard, Johnson could feel the strong aura and spirit from him when he started to march.
Alex and Riya made their move and although Arkham soldiers warned them to kill Johnson and others, Alex didn't stop and directly appeared before them.
Alex smashed the soldiers while Riya started her butchering as usual.
Johnson didn't sit still and clenched his teeth, he pushed himself for the last time and clashed with enemies.
THUD!
Huff.Huff...
Johnson along with others lay down flat on the ground. Their mind was hazy and they felt as if they were on the last run.
They could feel the approach of death and be sure that once they closed their eyes, they wouldn't wake up again.
As they were closing their eyes, Alex appeared in their blurry vision.
"You can take a rest. Leave everything to me for now."Alex muttered while waving his head.
The bodies of Johnson and others were engulfed with a bright golden light and they felt a warm sensation spreading over their bodies, due to which they let go of their consciousness.
Alex started to sort out the mess immediately. After checking the entire training centre, they only found 60 survivors.
"Out of 1500 Arkham soldiers, all are dead except 10 we have left for the prisoner as per your order and there are 70 survivors from our side. Out of 3000 stationed here, they were sent to other defence lines with 500 left here. And we also found the corpse of the commander."
Aeon after giving a brief took them to the wall at the northern side of the wall where Commander Earl Ruth was pinned on the wall with many spears piercing him.
Alex's expression became cold as soon as he saw the scene.
Early Ruth can be said as negligent. But at least he wasn't a corrupt official and once Alex corrected him, he did his work diligently.
"Bring him down and give everyone a proper burial."
Alex didn't speak anymore and just stared at the scene all around him silently.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Where are survivors from Arkham?"
"Yes, we locked them up."
Alex nodded and stepped into that building.
"Riya take care of things here and can you lend me your dagger."
"Here!"
"Thanks!"
Creak!
The door to the building where Alex had gone was closed.
And as soon as Alex went in, the soldier's expression distorted and yelled"Torture us as much as you can. Kill us! We will not speak about anything."
They shouted and screamed trying to scare Alex but he neither responded nor cared for their emotions.
Alex walked in and stood before the man who was barking loudly and without any warning, he slammed his knee on his face which exploded into thousands of pieces.
The grey and white matter of the brain along with the blood scattered and fell on everyone.
The entire place became quiet. The Arkham soldiers were so shocked that no words came out of their mouths.
It hadn't even started when this man killed one of them brutally.
Alex felt satisfied seeing the look on their face after the demonstrations and spoke in a cold tone.
"I will give one minute to each person. The rules will be quite simple. I will ask a question and you will answer and if you give the answer that I had been expecting then I may let you live otherwise I will give you such a beautiful pain that death wouldn't be enough to free you from the pain."
