Chapter 265: This battle couldn’t be lost
Hearing that, Cicero’s brows furrowed slightly, his eyes flickering with thought.
A deep, contemplative look settled in his gaze.
Compared to Kyros—or even Ethan—he had a clearer grasp of Emerald Castle’s true strength. So he knew Kyros wasn’t wrong. This battle... it wasn’t going to be easy.
But the biggest problem wasn’t the Hero Units, or even the Crimson Ultimate heroes. No, the real issue lay with the regular troop-level Legendary and Mythic Units.
They just didn’t have enough of them.
Their foundation was too weak.
Which meant going up against hundreds of Leviathans and Deep Sea Leviathans was putting them under insane pressure.
It was like trying to fight off a tidal wave with bare fists.
"That’s not necessarily true," Ethan suddenly spoke up, his voice calm. "Kyros, did you forget the plan Auremax mentioned earlier?"
"My lord, I didn’t forget," Kyros replied, shaking his head. "It’s just... I’m worried we won’t be able to take out those Leviathans and Deep Sea Leviathans without getting dragged into a full-scale war. To kill them, we’d have to go underwater. And once we’re down there, we’re on their turf. I can handle myself in the sea, but the others..."
He glanced around at the rest of the group.
