Some shadowy people sent letters from Diablo's base in the form of birds. Each bird containing secrets to the mission that Rex and Diablo were currently doing.
"Damn!" A giant black demon shouted.
Several other demons who were dark black also felt the frustration.
"Prepare for war! Summon all available bandits! I do not care if they are human, demon, or beastman! We have to crush these armies coming!" The giant black demon commanded.
All across the Nine Realms and Demon Realm, bandits were either ordered to come or summoned to join the war against the Demon King.
For those bandits who refused, death awaited them from the bird messengers. For those with weak will to battle, death awaited them. Across the Realms thousands of bandits died and attacked the birds. The casualties were far greater than expected for the bandit side.
For every one bandit who joined almost ten bandits died. The numbers were not in favor of the bandit side.ihf4 ik k
"This has been only the first day!" He growled.
He had not expected such loses from just the summoning. Yet, he was here trying his best to prepare ambushes, traps, and even weird Qi Fire techniques to destroy the two armies.
Now, he has almost no chance of anything going right. Even when the advisors all tried to communicate this to him. He did not think that ik 8t would have been this bad.
"Sometimes, I hate being wrong. This is not the time for me to be wrong. I can cripple their armies slightly and get the rest of our family to safety if only losers had not joined a Bandit Cause or became a bandit because they were too upset with the rules of their city, town, or Kingdom!"
The demon smashed the table in front of him.
Everything he wanted to do was currently being destroyed in front of him. Now he was truly mad.
Each day that passed the more bandits that died. Each one dying made it less likely for him to take the remaining forces into hiding.
"Two days is all we have to prepare and leave." The giant demon said.
As the group of advisors all took that into account, the other bandits knew what the plan because of the amount of deaths.
"Glory to Bandits!" They started to chant.
The ground rumbled with great fury. As they continued to chant and stomp.
"Fellow bandits, we are currently almost ready with a plan to slow down the armies and make sure that almost all of us leave." One of the advisors spoke.
True to his words, the giant demon did have a plan but the night would be devastating to the group and their escape.
That night, all bandits gathered and took the stance of preparing traps. Several of them placed Fire Talismans around of the ground, some Earth Qi users made pitfalls and placed more Fire Talismans in there, some had a rare Lightning Qi and made Lightning Strike Talismans with their Lightning Qi, generally though, most of the bandits dug holes to lead the armies into a singular or two path.
While most of them worked has hard as possible, a few of them rested between and started shifts.
By noon the next the day and the day before the armies would arrive. With Poseidon leading the armies, the bandits did not know that they had just wasted resources and time.
Poseidon leading the armies was not told to the men under Diablo. Just the fact that two armies coming were already unheard of.
As the group of bandits continued to move forward, the shift in the air was evident. The shocking revelation that none of their hardwork paid off was soon sent to them.
Poseidon did not honestly care about the fact of people telling the bandits. Has he continued to lead the army to the town, the townsfolk roared and cursed the armies for coming to their aid.
Poseidon did not take their cursing lightly. Has such, several of the people were executed on the spot due to them cursing the Demon King. Poseidon did not think that just a few deaths would cause a massive upbringing. He and Rex would have to deal with the consequences of this and he would bear the shame of having to clean up his mess afterwards.
