Half a day later, we were already conforming to the army consisting of kobolds and goblins. Still, instead of combat, I ordered bombardment as they were individually too weak and numerous, so we just blasted them off.
I helped with several Strategic-Tier Spells as I released them upon my enemies. After annihilating goblins and kobolds, I led my army group deeper into the central region until we finally encountered some settlements that I swiftly destroyed.
Unless there were General Level monsters or huge numerical disproportion, I let Mechanical Legions deal with them. They didn't need rest or anything, so they could be used 24/7 if required.
Thanks to that, our progress was very smooth until we achieved our destination, which was the capital of the Gorru Kingdom. When imagining the capital city, it wasn't some city, I thought it would be built from stones, but instead, it was an enormous settlement, just like any other.
Huts, tents, wooden houses, and some palisades from huge trees. We started lying the siege, as I have seen other two Army Groups belonging to General Zagan and Venelana, who arrived half an hour after me.
Now, there was a high probability that enemies would play a defensive battle with us, but that was okay with me. I had enough arcanoctech artillery, Voidships, and three Ultimate-Class powerhouses with fearsome long-range attacks, including me.
From early detections, I have detected that there were more than twenty General Level monsters in the settlement, maybe even more, which was a bit troublesome. That was too much to fight against in open combat, as they could easily destroy many of my common troops, which won't be pleasant.
"What to do... Architect, what is the probability of killing all of them in several salvos from 14 Lunar-Class Cruisers?"
I ask Architect.
[68,78%. The probability itself is rather low; if they are not killed simultaneously, it could be troublesome. Problematic is their strength, as there should be at least 4 or 5 pinnacles General Level monsters.]
Answered Architect.
"So, what do you propose?"
I asked him, knowing he had already formulated some kind of plan.
[Using on Cruiser to detonate itself. The Anti-Matter Magicule Warp Drive explosion would be so great to annihilate even Monarch Level monster several times over. This could be the easiest way to end this entire conquest of the Central Region. There is a very high possibility that General Level monsters there would be annihilated if there is a confrontation, but losses inflicted on the army would be between 40% to 50%. While Mechanical Legions could be completely destroyed.]
Explained Architect.
"Chances?"
[100%. In every simulation from 1,356, the result is the same. Complete annihilation of every single living enemy in diameter of several kilometers. I would recommend casting a defensive barrier to prevent unnecessary collateral damage.]
In truth, this could probably be the best-case scenario. While the loss of a single Cruiser pained me right now, as I wasn't in a state where loss even of the entire fleet would be just a minor obstacle, alas, it could prevent unnecessary losses.
The problem is that inside that settlement are many General Level monsters, and several of them are terrifyingly strong. Now it made sense; we didn't encounter as many General Level enemies on our way.
They were all on their way to the capital to prepare for the final defensive battle.
On top of that, I wanted their corpses to be my nourishment, but alas, fate has other plans.
"Then start implementing the plan."
I ordered as 13 Lunar-Class Cruisers started changing their location and surrounding the capital from a distance of fifteen kilometers. When they were far enough, I started casting a spell with Lord Mephisto Pheles. Soon enough, with energy support from all thirteen Lunar-Class Cruisers, it created an enormous barrier that enveloped the entire settlement, creating a huge dome.
Only one Cruiser was in that dome, which was empty, loaded with additional explosives, which were small unfinished cores for Anti-Matter Magicule Canon Batteries. Architect controlled the Cruiser from a distance, and he directly crashed it at the settlement.
When the Cruiser crashed, the earth shook a bit, but soon it substituted, and everything went quiet. After several seconds, everything went white as the ship exploded, creating an enormous explosion that I felt even through the defensive barrier, shields, and hull of the voidship. Soon enough, the barrier started having cracks all over until it cracked in full force.
"Damm... that self-destruction is too fearsome... how strong it was?"
[Comparable to the full power of Pinnacle Level Satan-Class / Intermediate Divinity Stage God in terms of energy reserves. Fortunately, the barrier absorbed most of the damage before it cracked, and the void shields of the Cruisers absorbed the rest. Altogether, the ship's damage level is only between 5% to 9%.]
If left unhindered, that kind of explosion could destroy an entire continent and annihilate all life on it. Thanks to the barrier, it absorbed 99% of the power that was released during the explosion, but it still cracked and was destroyed.
It took almost half an hour for the dust to settle, for me to see a crater in the earth that was deep several tens of kilometers. Really terrifying thing. In the future, If I would want complete annihilation, I could always send some voidship to self-destruct.
"How long till we can once again access this area?"
[Due to post-radiation released from the explosion, probably one month if we include all purification of magic and arcanotech. This entire area is now a pure death zone, just like on the planets Federation used those things.]
Informed me, Architect, as I nodded before turning around to give orders.
"Continue in original Army Groups to conquer rest of the mainland. Now that this thing is finished, there should be practically zero resistance. General Zagan will go to Northern Region, Venelana to Western Region, and I to Eastern Region."
Everyone nodded in agreement, eager to finish the entire planar conquest and return home.
