Chapter 94 - Chaos All Around
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!
A loud blast shook the entire fortress due to an explosion that rang like thunder clearing the silence that was prevailing in the darkness of night.
Christina who was inside the Fortress inside her office suddenly got up on hearing a deafening roar and rushed towards the wall.
“What happened?” Christina shouted with a cold voice while she stared at a huge fire spreading out on top of the wall.
“We don’t know what happened?”
“We just witnessed something piercing the darkness of night, came towards the topmost part of the wall and exploded part of the wall.”
The soldiers give a gist while treating the wounded ones.
Many have been wounded and have suffered severe burns due to the unknown attack.
Christina walked towards the sea of flames and looked in the distance.
Most of the wars were stopped by the evening and continued with the rise of the sun.
There was still an hour before the sunrise and Amidon had already started the attack.
As Christina observed the scene while staring at Amidon’s forces, she saw a huge beam of fire shot toward her.
“Vacate the left front quickly, ” Christina shouted with a panicked voice and alerted the forces guarding the left portion of the walls.
Hearing Christina’s loud voice, the soldiers stationed there moved back and retreated quickly but before they could reach a safe distance, the beam of light collided with the walls and blasted off a huge chunk of the wall.
The soldiers stationed there were sent flying and were thrown into the air by the sudden blast.
The loud shockwaves of the blast shook the entire wall of the fortress and cracks started to form the huge walls slowly.
“Mages, try to extinguish the fire quickly.”
“Everyone retreated for 30 metres from the walls,” Christina shouted while asking Frank to prepare the forces.
Christina poured mana into her eyes and her eyes glowed faintly which allowed her to see at the distance faintly.
Christina looked at the huge wooden mass of magical cannon which had a huge magic circle drawn on it.
Christina’s expression changed for a moment seeing the thing Amidon’s army brought out.
Frank was stupefied for a moment seeing Christina change in expression.
He had been with Christina for a while and knew that she always had an indifferent expression.
She doesn’t talk much unless necessary and always had a cold and aloof expression on her face as if she had no interest in world affairs.
“Commander, what is that thing?” Frank asked as he looked at the unusual wooden thing which looked like a mixed version of a catapult and a cannon.
“It’s a flare,” Christina muttered.
“It’s a magical cannon which is used to fire a shot of mass destruction at the enemy walls.”
“But that’s not important.”
“A flare is extremely costly and each shot costs a lot. Even tier 1 doesn’t use it casually and its development is not something a Tier 5 Kingdom like Amidon can afford.”
“They might have run out of crystal to recharge it. Otherwise, if flare shots continuously it would be enough to bring down the Fortress walls.”
“Frank, no matter what we have to destroy the flare before it causes more damage,” Christina spoke with a grim expression.
The situation had become quite out of hand and if they didn’t fight back, she was sure this place may fall sooner even before the reinforcements can make an appearance.
“Commander, we have trouble.”A soldier came hurriedly with a panicked expression and shouted.
“The Fortress gates had been breached and the enemy had already set up the seized ladders.”
Christine froze for a moment when she heard the message.
“How!” Christina spoke with panic.
“There was a traitor, a bastard opened the small passage near the gates allowing a small number of Amidon forces to enter and open the castle gates.
“Frank!”
“Commander, leave it to me, I will crush those bastards along with the traitor and then I will set up to destroy the flares,” Frank spoke and took a battalion while going down the castle.
“Do that while I will take down those who are climbing the ladders and try to coming here,” Christina spoke and gave a brief nod to Frank filled with respect after all only God knows if he could come back alive once he got out of the Fortress walls.
Christina stared at the huge army of Amidon that was rushing down here.
Christina thought of taking part in the battle and cleared away the minions when two strong auras appeared on top of the walls.
“Hey, beauty, why don’t you play with us.” Two men appeared and spoke with a sinister smile as they looked at Christina’s gorgeous figure.
Both of them excluded a powerful aura of Master rank which could pose a threat to those on the walls.
Christina’s eyes became sharp and a mighty pressure burst forth from her body as she drew out the sword and slashed at them without any mercy.
BOOOOOOOM!
……….
“Antwan? Antwan…where are you son of a bitch?”
“Don’t get killed by these cockroaches, otherwise I wouldn’t let others bury your corpse and I will piss on your dead body.”
A huge man of six feet who had black hair drenched in blood and was wearing a vast chainmail turned back and yelled while slashing at the enemy.
“Antwan! Pick some guys and get rid of these assholes and destroy those bastards who are putting the seized leader.”The man screamed as he pierced the sword at one of the enemy’s chests making a bloody hell in his chest.
“Yes sir.”
Not too far away from him, a brown-haired Antwan soaked in blood emerged from the sea of corpses which had been piled up on top of each other.
It was already hard to tell whether it was the blood of his or the blood of the enemies he had slain.
As he heard the command of his superior, he waved his hands and shouted”Come on guys! We have to kill these fuckers and smashed out those ladders which had been a pain in the ass and throw these invaders out of thr gates.”
“Let’s go!” His cry echoed on the sea of blood.
Antwan was a bulky young man who was known for his brutal strength.
Even though he was in the middle of the Disciple rank, he was able to defeat the master rank in arms wrestling.
He looked more like a barbarian than a human.
The veins on his arms bulged as he started swinging his huge iron hammer that was the size of a huge iron ball.
Like a mad berserker, he cleared off enemies in his way as if they were flies.
Anyone that stood before him was crushed and smashed into meat paste.
The enemies that were defending the gates from soldiers of George were alerted as they saw a huge man coming toward them while bulldozing everything on his path.
“Attention! Move Forward! Try to maintain the formation.Don’t let them come closer.We have to keep the gates open until the soldiers come in.”
The leader of the small group of enemies yelled on top of his voice.
Six squads ofenemies formed a half circle and tried to surround Antwan and his squad while trying to protect the leader and the armies that were rushing behind them.
With shark-like blades that were still dripping with blood, the sharp spikes on it that pointed outwards, they were like a metal hedgehog waiting for attackers to make a mistake before capitalising and finishing off their enemies.
“Go to Hell!”
Antwan yelled and gave the hammer a full swunh as if it was a javelin and threw it.
The hammer flew out of his hands and charged at the enemy formation.
The giant hammer made a beautiful trajectory in the air and crashed through the defensive formation with a devastating force.
“Bash!
The hammer hit them like a jolt and took many ofthem off, making a dent in the formation.
Seeing the opening, Antwan shouted and jumped onto the gap.
Extending both his hands, he clutched the hands of two enemy soldiers and thrashed both of their heads and hacked their skulls with a crackling sound and bursted their heads into blood.
He didn’t leave the dead body and holding them in both of his arms rotated like a blade of the grinder and hit the enemies with the dead bodies and sent them flying .
