Alexander ordered the terracotta army to march. The chamber the army discovered contained a part of the army only. Alexander had bound the army to his kingdom and came to know that the army could be evolved but not too much. As it was a star level- 2 world, the number of terracotta army was much greater than the one's in the world of mummy that Qin Yi conquered. They were more powerful too. Alexander had sacrificed 30 percent of his total king's might to make the terracotta army 4 times more powerful permanently. The terracotta army also gained a rudimentary intelligence.

As the land was claimed by him, he could see everything on it. He saw the shock on the soldiers faces when they realised the true numbers of the terracotta army.  The army was a 100,000 strong and 2 times faster than the speed of a motor car. As the army was now connected to the kingdom, it could recognise the people of the kingdom. The terracotta army would feel a resonance with his subjects and would not attack them and the same for his subjects also. Alexander then ordered them to attack anyone who is not his subject. Captain Wang was ordered to attack the terracotta army, the government had planned to use the people who had submitted to the emperor to attack the army but Wang replied that some sort of power was stopping him from attacking the army. The higher ups to test this ordered some soldiers to submit to the emperor and then attack the incoming army. But after submitting, they could not do so. All of this was planned by Alexander. Now, when this news will reach the common people, they will submit to him as for  attacking the terracotta army why would they do that? Moreover, this behaviour of terracotta army would convince the people that the terracotta army was not cruel as it didn't harm the people who had submitted. All this would create a positive impact on the people of the world and more would submit to him.

Alexander had previously ordered the terracotta army to attack but he had ordered them to move at normal human speed so that the experiment of the higher ups could be concluded. Now, Alexander ordered them to attack in full force.

Random Soldier's P.O.V:

I, Zin Shan, am a soldier in 35th Battalion. We were ordered to march to this remote place for unknown purposes. We reached here yesterday and few criminals were forced to enter a newly discovered tomb. None of them came back. We were ordered to prepare for battle.  We dug the trenches, installed the machine guns and even tanks were deployed. A talk was going around the base that we have to fight the immortal army of the Dragon Emperor tomorrow. Some bastard had violated the tomb and now the immortal army was going to invade. Word was also out there that anyone who submitted to the dragon emperor would be spared. I did not believe in this. I thought that the higher ups have gone mad. At dawn, alarms began to blare and we were ordered to take our position. As I reached my position, I noticed that all of my comrades were unusually silent and quite a few were shaking.  I looked towards the direction they all were looking and saw an army of people covered in mud were assembling in front of us. Then, I looked carefully and saw they were mud statues. There were thousands of them. The base was gripped in strange quiteness. Suddenly, some commotion was made but nothing happened. Then, I saw the opposite army moving towards us. At first, they were running like normal people but suddenly they starting moving very fast. We were ordered to attack so we attacked. Our bullets did not even manage to harm them. The only thing that could harm them were the tank's shots and machine guns. I was happy that they would be soon destroyed but then I saw a scene that filled me with horror, they reformed and started trying  to dodge  the shots fired by the tanks and machine guns. Some of them were successful and they threw their spears in the barrell of the tank. Then, the others copied them and we started losing ours tanks. Their spears also reformed after getting damaged. Then, they collided with us. They massacred the soldiers standing in front of me. They tried to run but they were faster. I also tried to run but felt something pierce my chest. I looked down and saw a spear sticking out of my chest then I lost conciousness.
