The 5 Elemental Lord
Crazy idea Azure
Two days later, Zeno had a meeting to discuss something far more important. Attended by important people such as the general Lois, Admiral Mahaa, the higher-ups Nefd, daughter Aure and also Turse who is Zeno's right-hand man. There may be some other important people who took part in this meeting.
“We must accelerate the attack of Mare Enbarum before those who attack first. A month? No, one day after Kirin and Uron arrive, then we will leave immediately. But like what I said earlier, we have to wait for Kirin and Uron to return, because the arrival of those who will make the attack plan succeed.”
Indeed, just like what Zeno had said that he had actually sent Kirin and Uron towards Mare Enbarum after one day he became emperor. Either way, Zeno did not know they had done the task he had given them or had not. The thing is, Kirin and Uron are indeed fast, maybe the speed they make the journey to Mare Enbarum takes five days, and of course it will make them stand out for several days.
It did not rule out the possibility that Kirin and Uron had not been spying on Mare Enbarum because she was also still resting. However, Zeno truly believed that Kirin and Uron could spy much faster. Moreover, Kirin's ability can not be underestimated as well as Uron's ability.
“Then I want to ensure our military strength. With new information, there are 246 warships ready to operate.” Zeno continued his words.
“Wait a minute emperor. Aren't there 145 warships?” Lois spoke while frowning her forehead. He felt, three days ago the warship still numbered 145 units. Why is the ship growing so fast now?
“How do I explain it yes.” Mahaa thought for a moment in confusion to explain from which side, she knew exactly why warships were multiplying so rapidly. Then, he smiled faintly as he said, “Maybe you guys won't believe it. But the emperor was completely insane, the emperor might cancel building the forest for the upgrade of the ship fleet because the financial council could not afford to pay the workers. However, he actually made 100 ships himself, plus 1 large ship of ice for me.” Mahaa is a bit of a show off to the other guys.
“Wait for the emperor, is that true? You're giving a gift to admiral Mahaa?” General Lois made sure.
“Gosh admiral, can you not show off like that? If anything happens then I will sink your ship again.” Zeno took a very lazy breath.
“The emperor cheated, is it because admiral Mahaa is a woman that you gave him a gift?” Lois Protest.
“I only intend to increase the Fleet of ships because we will sail far away to attack Mare Enbarum. And who said I gave you a gift? I only handed one of the ships to the admiral so that we and the special forces could board the ship.” Zeno tried to explain, “Rather than you ask uselessly, you better explain the quality and quantity of your soldiers.”
Lois only sighed and smiled bitterly when she did not receive a special gift from the emperor, but she soon forgot about it and gave an explanation of what Zeno was asking. “There are about 980,000 ordinary troops with their abilities who can attack from close range, then there are 35,000 special forces who can kill silently, and for archer troops, you should ask the commander.” He said as he turned his head towards Turse who was standing behind Zeno.
“Still 150,000 like what I said yesterday.” Turse turned his face away from Zeno's gaze.
“Alright Turse no problem, I know improving the archers is also very difficult.” Zeno tried to keep Turse from feeling guilty. “If counted, there are 1,165,000 army troops, have not counted naval forces belonging to admiral Mahaa. And the ship couldn't possibly accommodate that many troops. Therefore, I will only take half of the ground military forces.”
“According to information anyway, my navy has 500,000 troops. All those troops won't even be able to board all of our warships. Are you going to take half of it too? no, it will also not be enough when merged with the ground team.” Admiral Mahaa spoke up.
“145 ships can accommodate 500 troops, 100 ships can accommodate 700 troops, and one ship the largest can accommodate 1000 people. It will not be able to, even far from being able to accommodate such an army. Because basically the function of the fleet of ships is used by the navy, not to escort such an army troops.” Zeno sighed in confusion.
“You think it's easy? Making 100 ships feels like taking down the empire all by yourself.” Zeno answered Turse's statement very lazily as well.
Turse did not answer anything, he was instantly silent for a moment but did not want to look at Zeno anymore.
Zeno touched his head because he felt so dizzy, it felt probably very strange to do a cross-continental attack, because it was really rare, really rare, because the emperors themselves knew that attacking across the continent was impossible due to the limitations of bringing in troops. Unlike the Danze army, which can fly. Andi alone, Zeno troops can fly, maybe Zeno will not be this busy.
“Hei sir. I have a pretty crazy thought.” The Azure that was inside Zeno's body spoke.
“Say.”
“You are the ruler of five elementals. One of them is water. What if you make your troops ride on the water? No matter how far the journey, if carrying a qualified stock, it is not too problematic. What's so hard? Strange enough if the ice elementalist feels thirsty in the middle of the trip, a troublesome obstacle is hunger.” Azure said quite strangely. Even Zeno who heard it felt quite crazy with Azure's words.
“Riding on water? And when tired, rest on the water? No, I mean resting on the ocean? Totally bonkers. But that's a very good idea. Thanks Azure.” Praise Zeno.
“I have a pretty crazy idea. But we better wait for Kirin and Uron to come first. And this meeting was dissolved first.” Zeno dissolved the meeting so quickly, because he wanted to test something like what Azure had said.
Everyone nodded and left the place. But Turse was still silent on the spot while staring at Zeno's sinister. No one other than the two of them, Turse said, “You are evil, why are you only giving gifts only to admiral Mahaa?”
“So you want a surprise gift anyway?” Zeno smiled faintly towards Turse. Then, without waiting for Turse to reply, Zeno pulled out his hand and carried away Turse by passing through the imperial window. More precisely when they came out, they also floated up and Zeno instantly moved as fast as lightning towards the south.
In an instant, Zeno was already on the coast with many people who enjoyed the beach by riding a horse. More precisely the place as a tour in the glaciers.
As a result, Zeno rode a horse, and asked Turse to ride another horse. Then, Zeno pulled the horse rope that the Turse was riding on and carried it away towards the middle of the sea.
“Master Stop!” Shouted Turse, “Do you want to commit suicide?” Turse protests when he finds out that Zeno is riding a horse pulling his horse rope towards the middle of the ocean.
However, Turse was instantly speechless as the horse he rode and Zeno's horse seemed to walk on the water. Then with a sweet smile, Zeno turned his head back and said to Turse, “You can ride a horse? If you can then chase me on this vast sea. Let's just say this is a special gift for you.” Zeno immediately spurred his horse and further away from the coast.
“Alright, even if you get to the other continent I will chase you.” Turse also spurred his horse to chase after Zeno. He did not expect that Zeno could conjure an ocean as if it could be stepped on, as if Zeno was subduing the ocean.
