Release That Succubus-Chapter 280 Preparation

Zach was constantly in the process of concocting a rescue plan based on the distance the blip had traveled already. He would alter the minor points from time to time as soon as the distance increased past the feasibility limit of the current plan.

The final shape of his rescue plan began to emerge only after the blip stopped moving a long distance away from Greenland in the deep ocean, but his plan was bound to be unable to satisfy its intended purpose because it was based on a mistake; a small one but a mistake, nonetheless.

Zach waited for a few hours and locked down the location of the blip while finalizing his plan at the same time.

Zach had carried out several operations like this one before but never on such a large scale. He planned to mobilize most of his troops this time which spoke of the anger bubbling inside of him.

He hadn't been this angry when Violet had been kidnapped because it hadn't taken place in front of him, and he had been free from guilt. But this time, the situation had occurred because he, as the supreme commander of the battlefield, had failed to assess the potential strength of the enemy and had ended up losing his commander to them.

When Zach had decided to make this island his temporary base of operation, he had only planned to act as a business family that wanted to stay in peace with the city and its forces. He had never bothered anyone. He hadn't provoked anyone to suffer this kind of retaliation from them. But the Hunter family had, time and time again, bothered him whether directly or indirectly by going against his allies; the Windsor family.

In the end, the ones in trouble were his own people who were innocently trying to build and protect their home without caring about the outside world. They had no stakes in the power struggle of the city and weren't interested in it either. They just wanted to live in peace.

For that very purpose, Zach had even stopped them from using the name of the Luther family. It was to avoid the approach of the royal family that was already aware of Zach's capabilities and wanted to make use of him. Once he had to escape Elizabeth city because of that royal family and the people following him had to be uprooted from their long cherished home because of that.

Zach had always felt responsible towards these people throughout the journey and after they reached Byzantium city. Therefore, he had changed the name of the group and began to refer to the group as the Smith family so that no one would bother the relatives of a dark mage as they were going to stay away from the matters of the city anyway.

Although no one knew his true identity in the city, trouble came to find him even when he tried to live an anonymous life. He had even given up on using the sugar business to gain popularity in the city and yet the Hunter family came after him, enemies popped up one after the other and the struggle for power embroiled his forces in the turmoil.

Zach was unwilling to forbear it this time because this time those hostile entities had involved his family in their sinister schemes. This was a big no-no for Zach, and he was unwilling to let it go just like that.

He vowed in his heart that was filled with guilt and remorse, that he wouldn't let the enemies make their escape this time.

Even if he had to make blood flow like a river, he would be willing to do so as a deterrent to all the forces who had a similar thought in their minds.

He would make sure that no one in the city would ever dare to eye Greenland or its residents ever again. He planned to turn the island into a fortress so impenetrable that it would become a forbidden zone that no entity, human or otherwise, would dare to cross without paying the price in blood.

After studying the history of his previous world, he had come to the conclusion that only the forces versed in mystery and fear lasted a few generations. The remaining ones either prospered slowly or crumbled too early after succumbing to the pressure of the rival forces.

Therefore, shrouding the island in mystery and fear was the path he chose for his forces.

ραΠdαsΝοvel.cοm The first task he had to accomplish in order to do that was to establish his tyrannical might. As such, the plan for Diana's rescue involved a show of might that would frighten the powerful forces of the city for times to come.

After finalizing everything by himself he called for the temporary commander and issued a set of orders in a stern tone that made the temporary commander obey his commands robotically.

"Tell me how many men are needed to maintain the bare minimum defensive measures around the island. I don't want those hyenas waiting outside to infiltrate our home in our absence. "

The temporary commander stated the minimum number of soldiers who were needed for patrolling the outer perimeter and the ones who were needed to man the fixed defensive countermeasures like heavy artillery installed at various spots around the island.

"Leave that exact number of people on the island. They would be responsible for ensuring the safety of the island in the absence of the main force. Tell them to kill everything in their way should they encounter a situation where our enemies are dumb enough to try to occupy Greenland."

Aside from the number the temporary commander designated for island defense, rest every single soldier under Zach's command was gathered at the shore of the island. Their movement was extremely speedy so that none of the enemies would be able to get a glimpse of their actions. If they found out somehow, then the commander believed that they would definitely attempt to cause trouble in the absence of their leader.

"Get in. Don't waste time asking pointless questions. Just know that you have been chosen to bring our commander back with us. Now hurry up before I leave you behind." The temporary commander had no other way to convince the soldiers who were getting more and more inquisitive as they asked for the reason behind boarding such weird boats, so he told them the truth and the urgency of the matter. 𝑏𝑒𝘥𝑛𝑜𝑣𝑒𝘭.𝘯𝑒𝑡

The soldiers resolutely complied this time and began to board the torpedo boats along with their weapons. Zach had allowed them all to bring any kind of weapon they wanted for the trip as long as they were able to carry it.

Soon the two weird looking torpedo boats were ready to depart as they waited for the final lineup of generals that was going to accompany them along the journey.

The journey was going to be a very long one. It would take them about twenty hours to reach the blip in the deep ocean even with the help of the ship. Since the sea dragon had been able to cover the same distance in such a short time, it was considerably faster than the fastest means that Zach could muster at the moment when it came to marine transportation.

Bruce had been pacing back and forth on the quay as he waited for the soldiers to take their positions on the torpedo boats. He was extremely anxious to go after his sister who was probably suffering in the jaws of the sea dragon.

If it hadn't been for Zach holding him back, Bruce would have departed on his own to look for his sister even though he didn't have any means to locate her.

Zach understood Bruce's position. The latter had given up everything, his power and his family just because he wanted to protect his little sister from all kinds of disasters. But now the same sister had been taken away by a gigantic monster perfectly capable of devouring her like a single bite snack. How could he possibly rest easy knowing that every second he wasted could have been used to keep the sea dragon from harming his sister.

Therefore, the moment the boats were filled up with the soldiers who would be taking part in the operation, Bruce was the first one to board the ship among the leaders of the family.
