Chapter 688 - Crushing The Enemy
"Kill him!"
"Watch out!"
"He is that damned dragonair!"
"Attack with all your might!"
At once many shouts appeared from the depth of that gigantic ball of monsters with orders to kill him.
Arthur heard all their shouts yet he wasn't fazed. "Let's see if you can handle my sword," he sneered before moving like an arrow towards the gigantic ball and monsters directly with his superb speed.
His phantom sword flashed to meet the incoming monsters up ahead. He moved it left and right and didn't forget to flap his wings changing his position at perfect timing.
Sometimes he moved forward, other times he would turn right or left, and even at some times he would just extend his wings and soar in the air high above or even descend suddenly downwards while shrinking his wings.
He was like a real phanom, flashing and appearing anywhere before disappearing and appearing in another place.
This made the task of attacking him fail every time his enemies thought they already got him.
Unpredicted like this he kept fighting while his sword was like a death reaper, giving his enemies deadly wounds that were enough to make them all fall like weakless flies from the air.
'Ding! It's good, you've disturbed their formation… retreat now,' the system suddenly said.
The main goal of this kamikaze attack wasn't to kill as many he could, but to disturb that tight formation and create holes big enough for Gege to insert her portals all over the place.
"I was already having fun!" he complained, yet he didn't hesitate to draw back all of sudden and start to run away.
"Wait until I lure as many away as possible," he said to Gege.
'I will be patient,' Gege was still mad, 'as this next wave of attack should be enough to make them unable to pull such a defensive tactic ever again.'
Arthur laughed and his roars made many monsters restless, yet they kept pushing forward after him.
"Don't let him go away!"
"Hurry! He is alone now and we can hunt him down."
"Don't let him escape!"
Many shouts came ordering the grand army to kill him. For those leaders hidden deep inside the gigantic meat ball of monsters, Arthur was the head of the snake they needed to cut.
And Arthur saw them exactly in the same way.
'Ding! Great! Many are now chasing you and their formation is so loose.'
'I'll attack now!'
"Aim for the leaders," Arthur stressed, "leave the cannonfodders for later."
'I know,' Gege evilly laughed,'I won't let that army have a single leader after that attack.'
Arthur couldn't help but turn his head. His gaze crossed over the shoulders of his large number of pursuers before landing over the far distant group of leaders situated in the middle of this tattered formation.
And the next thing he spotted was the sudden appearance of the portals in very hard places to evade.
And next the ones to come out were Amera, the crow, and their forces.
"You sent them?!" Arthur was surprised by this.
'They said they were the only ones able to kill those leaders,' Gege explained, 'or perhaps they wanted to vent their anger, I dunno but at least they are able to do the job.'
'Ding! Don't let anyone help those bastards.'
'I'm now sending the mecha out to do exactly this.'
Arthur nodded in content when he noticed the larger number of portals appearing just around the small circle of the leaders. His mecha appeared next and started their massacre to anyone around the leaders.
As for the leaders, this sudden appearance of Amera and the crow forces came out of their expectations.
"Hahaha, they thought I would summon them to help me to run away," Arthur couldn't help but laugh while his roars kept making many enemies chasing him unsettled.
'Ding! They never thought you would be the bait, the real bait,' the system laughed as well as this plan was his suggestion after all.
'I'm glad they are this dumb,' Gege was still vengeful towards the failure of the tree to spot these monsters, 'let them all perish under our blades.'
"Yeah, keep cutting their rear and let me draw the rest away until they finish their task," Arthur nodded as he returned to glance at the surrounding monsters.
Their faces told him how deeply conflicted they were. In front of them the leader of their enemies was in reach, yet hard to get thanks to his speed and his annoying roars.
And from behind their leaders and friends were now being severely hit by the enemy forces.
"They are retreating," Arthur found some of them started to turn around, heading towards their far friends. "Don't let them come to their aid. Crush this hope for them!"
'I'm glad you said that,' Gege laughed before the next second many portals appeared around those retreating forces and the mecha appeared here to spread their devastation.
And no one managed to defend against such an unpredictable attack, ending up in creating a large distance void of any monster between the two armies.
'Ding! And like this we divided them successfully,' the system sneered, 'Ding! And they will perish.'
'Yeah!' Gege shouted in excitement before she returned to take care of the portals and the rear fight.
As the system predicted, in less than ten minutes the rear army was totally annihilated alongside the leaders who were the first to fall.
As for the group hunting Arthur they lost all hope to go back and help their leaders and comrades. They accepted their fate and from the dark faces of them and their persistence in hunting Arthur, the latter knew they put the goal of killing him before dying in front of their eyes as a must do thing.
"Keep dreaming," yet he only sneered while leading them in big circles away from the main battle until Gege said:
'It's time to clear this group.'
"Wait," Arthur suddenly said, "let me try something first."
