Chapter 1748 Discovering Hye's Little Lie
Hye filled the entire ships he seized so far with his warriors. Then he took away the grand flagship he boarded before and boarded one big flagship.
Leading everyone, they started to move towards the incoming fleet. The scene was described and recorded by Major's men, making the latter feel quite impressed by such a move.
Hye was going to deploy the Trojan horse tactic and take down an entire grand fleet just with the small numbers he got!
Major didn't know how huge the enemy coming was, but he could imagine their overall size and number of ships when he recalled how fast and decisive Hye acted.
"This human… I must not get on the bad side of him," he muttered to himself while waiting for the reports of his men when they'd arrive at the enemy and meet them.
He was curious to see if such a simple trick would really work over the incoming enemies. As he waited, he kept monitoring the ongoing battles all over the place.
The entrapped enemies seemed to get wind of the incoming reinforcements, or perhaps they felt bad about the current development of the situation. They started to madly attack his ships, trying to break free with any means possible.
And yet they lacked enough coordination and numbers, ending up failing every single time. They tried to regroup, but Major and his forces made sure such a thing wouldn't happen.
Time passed fast, and in three days, Hye's fleet finally came closer to the incoming hostile fleet.
"Do your job properly, or else we all are going to die," Hye spoke in the general channel connecting all of his fleet, and he didn't try to decorate his words.
He simply delivered the harsh truth. If they failed, then everyone here was doomed. This was going to be one of the hardest moments for those men. As for him, he knew how to get away without getting much damage. The only loss he'd suffer would be the large number of ships he collected so far.
Even his warriors weren't going to be hit badly. He planned to call everyone at the earliest sign of anything going bad. To make sure he got his escape route secured, he already took out his small ship, ready to operate it at any moment.
He waited, hearing weird tongues being spoken by the members of Major's fleet. He didn't get what they were saying, but the response he got made it clear the enemies were speaking back, negotiating about what Major's men said.
"Please stop, they need to check the fleet," One by one they sent such an order to Hye, and the latter already expected such a scenario.
"Tell them we have no time for this! Our main fleet is getting killed by the enemies, and we need to lead them there to save them…"
"But…" Many were shocked by what Hye said, and the rest sent these words back to Major.
There wasn't another meaning behind these words other than the enemy didn't know about the ongoing battle between Major and the other universe's forces.
"Damn this human! He outplayed me perfectly," Major paused for a few seconds, before breaking out in laughter, "he is bold! I don't know why he took such a risk, going to stir up the hornet's nest… Wasn't he satisfied with the loot here? Or is there another reason behind this?"
Major's eyes shone brighter before adding, "Listen up, do everything he tells you to do."
"But boss…"
"Just do it!" At this critical moment, Major made a decision that would change the future of him and his forces without realising it. At this moment, he decided to align himself with Hye, get to know him better, and even start helping him in whatever he was doing.
He didn't have a clue about what Hye was doing, but he could easily tell that humans weren't the type to do things simply and easily. He used to do big stuff, and his presence here that defied all logic and news about him meant he was trying to do something big.
And he wanted to be part of this move, no matter what it was. After all, he got nothing left for him in the universe that could help him and his people to rise up.
As he gave the order, his men started to speak about the ongoing battle, how they came here, and how they ended up getting trapped by this universe's forces. They spoke as if they were truly part of the other universe, and even used many words and curses they kept hearing from their enemies all this time.
Hye was in his flagship, listening to all this mysterious talk without getting any clue about what was going on. The talk lasted for an entire hour as if the two sides were debating on something.
He didn't feel any worry, as long as the enemy was buying this story, it meant they were good.
"They agreed!" after one hour, he finally heard the magical word he waited for, "They want us to lead them as fast as possible to the location of our forces. They ask for us to be surrounded by them, just in case."
"Let them send ships to surround ours," against what everyone thought, Hye actually warmly welcomed such a suggestion, even proposing something that would make the enemy more relaxed.
"He is a real tiger!" Major laughed and shouted like this the moment he heard about what Hye said. He could already imagine the grand fleet coming from the other universe to get destroyed by Hye and his warriors.
Letting his fleet meddle with the enemies'? That was the best scenario Hye would dream of. The enemy thought this was the safest approach to take this mysterious fleet down if they showed any signs of lying or betrayal. Yet they never guessed they just invited the wolf into their home.
As things progressed as Major expected, the new fleet formed of the one led by Hye and the other that came from the other universe, started to fly towards his direction.
