Path To Godhood Begins With Marrying Wife And Gaining SSS Rank Skill Chapter 716:Escape

Emperor Ezekiel slowly stepped forward.

His blood-red eyes swept across the countless Arcadia soldiers standing ahead.

A cruel smile slowly spread across his face.

He raised his hand without the slightest hesitation.

"Flatten them."

His cold voice echoed across the battlefield.

"Leave nothing standing in our way."

The next moment...

The Transcendent experts behind him exploded forward.

Like arrows released from their bows, hundreds of powerful figures shot across the battlefield at terrifying speed. The elite knights and commanders immediately followed behind them while the Allied Army surged ahead like a massive tidal wave.

The front lines collided almost instantly.

The earth shook continuously beneath countless impacts.

The carefully formed Arcadia ranks quickly descended into complete chaos as the overwhelming momentum of the Allied Army smashed into them.

Far behind the front lines...

Ethan silently watched everything unfold.

He did not say a single word.

His eyes remained fixed on the battlefield while the sounds of countless clashes echoed across the ancient plain.

The coordinated advance...

The overwhelming strength...

The complete lack of hesitation...

Everything happened exactly as the four rulers had planned.

His heart slowly turned cold.

This was no longer a battle between a few powerful experts.

It was an all-out war where thousands of lives could disappear within moments.

The sheer brutality of the battlefield silently unfolded before his eyes, making him realize once again how merciless a true war between empires could become.

Even though Ethan had joined the Allied side, he had fought alongside Arcadia for many years.

Many of the soldiers now lying on the battlefield had once stood beside him. Some had trained with him, while others had followed his orders during countless campaigns. They were not all evil people. Many were simply ordinary soldiers carrying out the commands of those above them.

Watching them being overwhelmed by the perfectly coordinated assault of the Allied Army did not sit well with him. His heart felt heavy as he watched wave after wave of attacks crash into the lower-ranking soldiers. They barely had any chance to resist before being swept away by the overwhelming difference in strength. The battlefield had become nothing more than a one-sided slaughter, and every passing moment added more casualties.

Ethan slowly clenched his fists.

His expression became increasingly grim as his eyes swept across the battlefield.

Then...

Something suddenly caught his attention.

His brows immediately furrowed.

He quickly searched across the battlefield once again.

Haster...

He was nowhere to be seen.

Not only Haster, but the majority of the Transcendent Realm experts had also disappeared.

The realization immediately struck him.

Without wasting another second, Ethan quickly turned toward Heliana, who was standing nearby observing the battle. He hurried over to her and spoke with obvious urgency.

"Lady Heliana."

"Please ask Their Majesties to stop this."

He pointed toward the battlefield ahead.

"The ones remaining are only fodder."

"The Crown Prince has already escaped."

"Killing them meaninglessly won't do any good."

Heliana quietly looked at Ethan.

She did not answer immediately.

Instead, she carefully observed the seriousness in his eyes for several moments. Seeing that Ethan was not speaking out of sympathy alone but because he had noticed something important, she gave a slight nod.

"I understand."

The next moment, her figure quietly disappeared from where she stood.

Only a few moments later, the relentless attacks that had been pouring onto the battlefield gradually came to a stop.

The loud explosions slowly faded.

The charging soldiers also began slowing down after receiving new orders.

Just then, a powerful voice echoed across the battlefield.

"Ethan."

The sudden call immediately drew everyone's attention.

Without hesitation, Ethan shot toward the front of the advancing army.

When he arrived, he saw the four rulers already standing together while countless commanders and Transcendent Realm experts gathered behind them.

Emperor Aldric looked directly at Ethan.

His expression remained serious.

"Do you know where Crown Prince Haster might have gone?"

Ethan lowered his head and thought carefully for a few moments.

Then he slowly raised his eyes toward the distant mountain range.

Beyond those mountains...

Thick miasma continued spreading across the land like a dark sea.

Ethan pointed in that direction.

"I am sure..."

"He has gone there."

The moment those words were spoken, the expressions of the four rulers immediately became solemn.

Queen Ophelia quietly looked toward the distant sea of miasma before speaking in a calm voice.

"Since he has gone there..."

"I am sure he has already prepared measures against us."

Emperor Caelus slowly nodded.

"He must have gathered the remaining forces there."

"They will probably make their last stand.And they will try to delay us for as long as possible."

Before anyone else could respond, Emperor Ezekiel let out a cold snort.

"So what?"

He looked around at everyone with an impatient expression.

"Just because he prepared a few measures..."

"Should we retreat?"

His sharp eyes swept across the gathered experts.

"Who are we?"

"We are Emperors."

"And today we stand here with our full strength."

"What is there to fear from such puny tricks?"

His voice grew even louder.

He tightly clenched his fist.

"A knight fights upfront."

Queen Ophelia gently curled her lips as though she wanted to say something.

However...

After looking at Ezekiel for a brief moment, she simply shook her head and remained silent.

Seeing that nobody objected, Ezekiel took another step forward.

"In that case..."

"Let's go."

The moment he finished speaking, he immediately shot toward the distant mountains with the experts of the Valorant Empire following closely behind him.

His sudden action startled everyone else.

The remaining rulers briefly looked at one another.

Even Emperor Caelus could not help muttering under his breath.

"Damn..."

"These hot-blooded bastards of Valorant..."

Just then, Ezekiel suddenly stopped in midair and turned back.

His loud voice echoed across the battlefield once again.

"Ethan, my boy!"

"Come here and lead the way!"

Ethan could only smile bitterly after hearing those words.

The other rulers exchanged helpless glances.

Since the Valorant forces had already charged ahead, there was little point in delaying any longer.

Without another word, they nodded to one another and led their own armies forward toward the mountains covered in endless miasma.
