The First Legendary Beast Master novel Chapter 653

Chapter 653 Coordinator

Overlord Tabitha didn't realize right away what it was that the Rogue had done, but she was immediately certain that he was messing with her in some way.

It was only when she received the next message from Karl that she realized that the scoundrel had told the Beast Master to send all updates directly to her as the liaison to the Archbishop, to keep everyone updated on the battlefield situation.

"Did I do something in particular to you?" She asked, before relaying the message to the Archbishop and his team.

"Not at all. You were simply standing in the wrong place at the wrong time, and he only knows so many people who are here to pass on the status updates." Niall replied with his most sincere smile.

The Archbishop and Nacht both chuckled as they realized what the Overlord had done, right before Niall excused himself from the room by simply vanishing. That didn't stop anyone's planning, as he was only there to provide intelligence confirmation anyhow, and they had already discussed the majority of what had happened while the Overlords were out with Monarch Karl's team.

On the North Side of the city, Karl had his hands full with the constant new arrivals. Not just of Elites and soldiers to replace the ones who had been wounded in combat and brought into Lotus' radius for healing, but also the constant arrival of the Giants' allies. They were appearing from portals in the distance, in numbers that suggested they had cleared out the majority of the three nations.

Strangely, they had not brought many higher ranked monsters to this side, and were attempting to flood the city with weaker ones, instead of softening it first by defeating the most powerful Elites.

There must be more to their strategy that Karl wasn't understanding, he was certain of it.

[Hawk, remember how the Frost Giants were scouring the area in a search pattern before the First Advancement trial spawned. Do you think that they could be doing the same thing here today? Something is off with their tactics, and they aren't sending their strongest, just loads of cannon fodder.

They can't be expecting us to send all our strongest and tire them out before the real fight starts, there has to be a deeper motive.] Karl suggested.

[If there is, I don't see it. They're attacking in nice ordered lines, working together, but there are only a few of the strong Giants in the back guiding them. It doesn't look like some fancy search pattern.] Hawk replied, uncertain whether he too was missing something about their attack.

It looked perfectly normal to him, but deeper motives were the Karl's department, not his.

{The numbers are increasing too fast. We're going to need Commander led teams on the next bus full of reinforcements.} Dana noted as her central defence point repelled another attack wave.

This time it was mostly Ogres, with some Hobgoblins, but they were beginning to get more Commander Rank Beasts in the mix, and the defenders couldn't easily keep up, even with the High Priestesses blessing their weapons.

{Overlord, Please inform the Archbishop that the attackers have stepped up the assault by a Rank. We are now seeing many more Commanders among the assault groups.
