1265 One Man Changes Everything
If the Hescos gathered up such a formidable force outside and planned to turn this world into a black hole for my forces, then they must have left behind capable generals and might even have left behind a few paragons.
That move was expected and didn’t make me nervous or angry at all. However I was mad at Sara. This girl knew nothing at all but to venture forward and fight without any care about anything else.
I liked her ferocious nature, but I didn’t like the fact that in each battle I had to babysit her like this, acting every single battle to save her neck and life.
She had to start reading the general image, and know when to step forward and when to stop advancing and act quietly.
I didn’t say anything to Matte, but that didn’t stop that talkative dude from sharing his opinion and thoughts.
I totally ignored him. I learnt from what he unintentionally exposed that doing that was already doing him a great favour.
Instead of wasting my breaths over him, I decided to give him space to speak as much as he liked without even trying to interrupt or respond to him.
After all he didn’t want any answer from me, he just wanted to speak and express his opinions out loud. His life in the Hescos before was like a prison in my eyes. What would it be like if I was prevented from saying what I had in my mind all the time?
As my chariot went out of the pit hole, I finally saw what was going on.
Using my Hawk Eye skill made me see far away and as I expected, Sara and her army was strangled in the middle of an ocean of Hescos.
That girl… Tsk!
“Follow me!” I held my horn and without any hesitation, gave such an order to all the forces around, “go and kill the enemy out there.”
The place Sara was entrapped within was at least five miles away from the edge of my grand shield here. It didn’t take that much to cross that distance by my chariot, yet my forces had to spend at least twenty minutes to arrive there.
The moment I arrived, I didn’t say anything and simply started my barrage of attacks.
First I started using my pillar’s shield skill and created isolation spaces in between the densely packed enemy forces. Such shields might not endanger the forces entrapped inside, but they messed brilliantly with the enemy line up.
As making these shields didn’t take much of my energy, and as they became eternal after the last upgrade, I could easily scatter them around while flying with ease by my chariot.
The Hescos didn’t stand idle though and watched me do all this without trying to stop me. They sent tons of flying Hescos, and even used long ranged attacks at me.
But all was futile in front of my invincible chariot’s shield. As I was moving unhindered like this, I started laying out the base for the upcoming battle.
Since my approach, I released my threads around and took over many of the Hescos. If I got a chance to add more Hescos to my roster, why would I refuse that?
I scattered enough shields in the direction where my forces were coming from. Then I started to move deeper and mess more with the enemy tight formation.
Gradually I got near my entrapped forces. Sara might suck at defence, but she got other generals who were helping her at the moment to keep her forces alive.
Seeing the nearly perfect circular line up her forces adopted made me smile. This girl learnt something from the past entrapment inside that pit hole. And she seemed to learn a trick or two about how to arrange her defences.
At the same time, she listened to the opinions of the other two generals by her side. She wasn’t as stubborn as that jerk, the jumper, at least, and knew where her weakness and soft spots were.
When I looked closer, I was surprised to see an isolated group of soldiers passing in the middle of the tight enemy lines, killing everywhere they went.
Looking more closely made me recognise her face leading everyone around her to kill the enemies entrapping her.
This girl… Even in such a deadly situation she never gave up on attacking! I smiled and if not for the urgency of the situation here, I’d even laugh.
As I got to them, I started to summon shields in succession. With each summoned shield, they merged together, and added a perfect covering for the entrapped forces.
I didn’t cast these shields to be precisely next to each other, or to just cover up my forces. I acted randomly as in my eyes, this entire battle was practically over the moment I joined it.
My shields expanded and even covered part of the enemy forces. In return, my entrapped army got the chance to retaliate.
When I got done from securing the entrapped forces, I noticed another battle not far from here.
It seemed when Sara got surrounded, the other troops here on my side tried to help and relieve the pressure. So they gathered up and came to attack the Hescos, but the Hescos were ready for them.
The span of this battle was huge! It expanded for miles in every direction while smaller groups of battles were happening in scattered places around as well.
It was a bit chaotic, but all this was going to stop right now. I kept using my shields to spread chaos in the middle of the enemy lines. Then when I reached the other battlefields, I used my shields to change the entire course of these fights.
In less than two hours, the entire situation changed. I didn’t stop in my tracks and went towards the broad and endless stream of forces coming from the far away places to here.
