Guild Wars

Chapter 1034 Vita's War 9

Cobra shuttled through the battlefield like the cold blooded killer he was, reaping lives like they were weeds on a farm. He wore a light smile the entire time he moved and he could only be vaguely sensed by his fellow core members with their various methods and Control.

As for his targets, their chances of sensing him was as high as the chance of Draco remaining celibate, perfectly non-existent. He had a Divine Rank leather equipment set along with two Divine daggers in each hand that formed a system with his class.

Every stab yielded blood from the body of his targets which would form another floating dagger that would rush out and pierce the body of another foe.

So as he moved along, the fellows were practically killing themselves… literally!

.........…

To the west, a giant airship carrying 100,000 men was slowly cruising forward, and on it was a group of elites who looked down as lived were reaped by the cold guns.

These elites smiled and laughed as they chatted, not bothered by the sheer death and destruction below. Whether NPC or player, they seemed to take this as the natural state of the world, which was quite chilling if you thought about it.

In the main seat was AP_Berzerker, a known ruffian and hooligan with no scruples and no bottom line. In his arms were some exotic beauties who were strippers in the Rank 7 Pub who had signed on to accompany the regiment in this war charge as 'entertainment'.

He laughed uproariously as he hands roamed their lush and voluptuous bodies, and they shamelessly moaned and cried out with joy, making the loins of some of the soldiers heat up.

They couldn't help but cast a few glances his way to enjoy the sight of the scantily clad beauties being folded ruthlessly. Just a look at the wrong angle, and one could see sights that were meant for private lovers only, which made their heat rise.

However, they could only look on with envy and jealousy. Some of the fellows walked over to the female soldiers who were about equal to them in number and tried to solicit them.

After all, when recruiting, Deployed Soldier knew that basing war on men alone would lead to many problems, especially when lust rose. It was better to have equal men and women soldiers so that when both were tired from killing, they could satisfy each other on the spot and prevent unnecessary actions.

Some men were successful in the solicitation, but they were beaten up by their superior officers since now was not the time. They could deploy downwards at any moment.

As for AP_Berzerker, he watched this all with amusement. In truth, he wasn't horny nor did he really enjoy this kind of thing. He just liked the fact that these fellows could only look and not do anything, ken ken ken!

AP_Berzerker was accompanied by the following core members; Armonia, Tunder Power, Noble Soul, Gentle Flower, Rambunctious Buttlover, Silent Walker, Cold Summer, Rina, Jada and Jade.

Soon, they encountered the force that existed to the west of Vita Kingdom, which was actually a large empire called the Akuma Empire. They had occupied about three Area Zones worth of territory and even the defeated Purita kingdom where Deployed's first Divine Sword came from was among them.

Back then, they had refused Vita's 'kindness' in taking them as a vassal state and decided to move. They had then been swallowed by another empire and then ravaged into pseudo-slavery, causing them to regret their earlier decision.

So when they saw Vita's airship coming over, their eyes were red with hate. Had it not been for Vita, would they have been severely weakened and forced to move?

Now look, in this huge army mustered to defend the Empire's borders, they were thrown at the fore front as cannon fodder to exhaust the enemies forces.

It was all their fault! When they came down here, slaughter them all and drink their blood to quench our hatred!

As for the members of Umbra, they saw the Army below and felt disdain in their eyes. If they used their bloodlines, a few movies would turn the entire army below into meatpaste.

However, they were forced by Draco to use only their class skills in order to reduce reliance on the bloodline and train their gaming skills, so they would have to slowly kill the enemy to death.

Anyway, that too was fine since they could bathe in their blood, guts and tears.

"Deploy!" AP_Berzerker roared with a cruel expression, still casually fondling the babes as he prepared to watch a good show.

The soldiers roared and descend upon the army below, slaughtering the first few in the wave like a harvester passing over crops, there was absolutely nothing the enemy could do in retaliation, and this terrified the opposing troops so much that many shat themselves.

As for the core members, in the lead was Armonia who was casually heading towards the area where the officers controlled the cannon fodder army to perform a decapitation strike!

Along with this skill, his Theory of Violence skill was also forcefully activated in tandem.

｢Theory of Violence – Active skill

He was kitted in Divine equipment suitable for his bearing, which was a golden circlet, a bo staff and a vestment full of power. With his current power, he easily dodged the attacks coming from below and reached the officer's locations.

The fellow's face were full of fear and horror, regretting choosing to lead these cannon fodder. The past few days, they had enjoyed whipping the men and raping the women freely under the guise of military law.

Now that decision was coming back to bite them as they were first in the line of fire to the officers of the other side.

Armonia wasn't one to hold back as she smashed forward, turning their heads and torsos into meat paste. Sometimes his force was a bit too excessive so some of their bodies were sent flying into the air.

While Armonia slaughtered freely, Tunder Power by the side was standing on the airship, glancing down at the battlefield coldly. His hawk like eyes scanned the battlefield and identified many targets that needed his work to clear.

After all, while this army may be trash compared to them, they had vastly superior numbers and most importantly, had a few elites who actually weren't shit.

There were even a few shameless Rank 6 fellows who rushed over to fight some of the Rank 5 soldiers and suppressed them using superior Rank. The Vita soldiers had to band together to barely survive and rely on their Epic sets to manage.

Tunder's eyes flashed with disdain as he casually nocked his special arrows into his bow, energy from the world rushing over to form the body of the arrow itself.

With his newly crafted divine bow, Tunder was alike a God of Archery, which was a very apt description given his power.

｢Divine Archer - Divine Class (Rank 5)

｢Energy Quiver – Passive skill

Effect: The Divine Archer no longer needs to fill his quiver, now gaining the ability to condense ambient Worldly Energy to form arrows which them covert into your affiliated element. Arrows made from this deal 100% of your affiliated element's damage!｣

Tunder glanced at the 3 or so fellows who had rushed froward to try and score some easy kills as well as reduce the pressure on their cannon fodder army.

Tunder's eyes flashed as his body lit up with his familiar purple glow, and he activated one of his skills before he released the arrows he condensed.

｢One Shot, Many Kills – Active skill

Effect: Nock a powerful arrow in your bow that contains your focus and concentration. The arrow splits into up to 100 different copies that are created through Worldly Energy when fired out. The arrows will become unblockable unless the defender has a power equivalent to your own. This deals 100% ranged damage per arrow.

Cooldown: 3 minutes.｣

The arrow split into 99, 33 of them separating and heading towards each target. They entered the void of space and vanished from the current layer of space, but had not disappeared truly.

The Rank 6 fellows who were having a great time suddenly coughed blood as they felt a sharp and unavoidable aura of death land upon them. Because of the suddenness, the power and absolute nature of it, they already suffered damage before even being hit.

They knew that this was the last moment of their lives and their eyes became red with unwillingness and fear at the sudden end to their lives.

They were filled with regret!

They should have stayed back like the other powerhouses rather than think they were smart to cheat the system and gain some military merits easily.

The void beside them opened up and released the 33 arrows meant for them and they roared with madness as they mustered their best defenses.

Sure, it was possible to avoid a few arrows and even resist them at the cost of injuries, but the 20 plus ones easily killed them as they could only helplessly watch their bodies turn into sieves!

After Tunder Power dealt with these impudent fellows, he focused on direct parts of the battle and continued to provide air support, being a one man nuke!
