On the battlefield, He Kai finally received the order to charge.
Although there was signal interference, signals remained unaffected near the warships.
The enemy fire ahead had opened a gap, but He Kai still felt it was not enough. It would have been better if they could get closer.
What was a sparse blank area to the entire fleet still carried some danger for individuals.
The closer they were, the shorter the assault would take, and naturally, the safer it would be.
But there was no room for bargaining now.
War was about making the enemy uncomfortable while making yourself a little more comfortable—unless everyone on the other side was a traitor.
Very soon, war revealed its brutality.
Many knights died on the way to the battlefield before they could even reach their positions.
But He Kai had learned to be cold. He knew that mercy would only cause more casualties.
The only way to give their sacrifices meaning was to kill a few more enemies for them.
Soon, the knights at the front began clashing with the knights of the Sacrificial Civilization.
At close range to the fortress, the Sacrificial Civilization knights responsible for sniping had long been waiting.
But in terms of numbers, there were still more on this side.
The Dark Faction conglomerates might have seemed to suffer a devastating blow, but the Sacrificial Civilization's sheer scale was there for all to see. Even if its proportion of knights was higher, it was still far inferior in total numbers.
Besides, the Sacrificial Civilization's knights had to cover several battlefields, and they were not even men of the Blue Star Federation Military Government.
Mercenaries would always face a measure of discrimination.
He Kai stopped hiding at this point. Seeking self-preservation could be justified as serving the greater good,
