Chapter 1804 Against Army of the Void Creature (2)
Khaya looked at the stone wall which was the same height as the frontier wall. She could not tell how thick the wall was. If the wall was not that thick, it could be destroyed easily by the army of the void creatures, but…
If the wall was destroyed from the bottom, the rubbles would hit the void creatures below. It might not kill many void creatures, but the debris would be an obstacle for the massive army. Just like that, the skeleton army created a new battlefield on a battlefield for themselves. Even though the army of the void creatures was still outnumbering the skeleton, she could see the chance for them to win against the isolated void creatures.
The giant skeletons with the massive shields moved forward in rhythm. The void creature was a bipedal monster with a big body that reached six meters in height with a muscular body. It had the leg of a skinny deer which was out of proportion when one looked at their body, and it had the head of a bull with four pointed horns. The hands were normal considering the other part of its body, holding a war axe as they charged forward.
The second species was similar, a bipedal monster with a similar body, slightly shorter in fact, a little over six meters in height. It had a similar body except this one was red-skinned with the leg horse as the hoof was the tell. The second had the head of a rhino with a single massive horn on its head.
The two species of void creatures did not care that their back was walled as they kept charging forward. Instead of using their war axes in their hands, they lowered their heads.
The Guardian Skeleton stopped their advance and put their shields forward. The distance was quickly closing in, and then the black beam shot out. The beam was no longer as potent as before, or maybe these void creatures were much stronger than the Orc Rider. The black beam killed around fifteen of them in one shot, and the shot was enough to disrupt the enemy.
After the tenth black beam, the void creatures' speed slowed down, and the formation in the middle was a mess as the void creatures behind hit the ones that slowed down because of the black beam. That would help the giant skeleton with a giant shield. The impact from the charge became less powerful.
The clash between the skeleton army and the void creature army started. As everyone expected, the skeleton with the shield stopped the charge in time. The void creature bounced back from hitting the giant shield, causing the void creatures behind the first line stuck.
After the first line of the shield bearer skeleton stopped the charge, the remaining shield bearer skeletons spread out, trying to encircle the void creatures. They didn't have enough numbers to completely surround the void creature, but they formed a strong barrier that protected the skeleton mages behind them.
The skeleton mages finally made their second move. After creating the massive earth wall, ten massive fire tornadoes rose in the middle of the void creatures. It burnt the void creatures in its way, and it kept moving, searching for more victims to burn. The skeleton mage controlled the fire from a distance while the shield bearer skeletons contained the void creatures.
The battlefield had been set up, and the other skeletons moved. The swordsman skeleton, the skeleton with the mace, and the skeletons with reaver jumped into the fray and fought the void creatures in tow. The assassin skeletons moved discreetly, killing the void creature discreetly.
Khaya thought it would take some time for the skeleton army to win, hours or maybe an hour the fastest but the battle was over in less than fifteen minutes. The skeleton army came out victorious by setting up their own battlefield.
'Does he control the skeleton?' She thought to herself. The strategy was too good to come from the skeleton. If it was Tang Shaoyang who controlled the skeleton, then it made sense.
[Even though I don't want to admit that they are strong, your captain doesn't control them. It's their own strategy and likely that guy, the skeleton in the black armor and red cape.] Radiance answered for Khaya.
Khaya spotted the skeleton mentioned by radiance. It wore full plate armor like a knight along with a helmet. There was one word written on the cape in gold, Skelly. There was an emblem, a dragon skull with two bones crossed right behind the dragon skull.
'Skelly?'
[It's their family name. Master called them the Skelly Family, and they lived up to Master's expectations, forming their own noble house and growing their army. That ruby-like skeleton with the dragon wing was the head of The Skelly Family, the strongest skeleton, a skeleton with a dragon bloodline.]
'What!? How?' That was the most confusing thing she ever heard, more confusing than the fact that her captain died twice. A skeleton with no blood, but had a bloodline.
[We can have more conversation later after the battle. Let's join the fun with them instead and raise your pathetic level first.]
Khaya did not like the idea of abandoning her post. First, Commander Edson would not like it. She was not Tang Shaoyang, and he would not tolerate her for ignoring the command. Second, this was the safest place to fight the army of the void creature.
[That's why your captain became much stronger than you all despite his short time in The Game. He always pushed himself, putting his life at risk, and he was rewarded for that. Even Castor knows what is best for him, fighting next to his captain because that's the safest place.]
Sure enough, Castor jumped off the wall and glided with his newly acquired wing. It was then followed by Renan, the elephant beastmen.
The situation changed after the battle against the isolated void creatures. The skeleton mage opened a gap, around twenty meters gap at the center of Earth, allowing the void creature to push through as the skeleton army pushed forward to the gap.
Meanwhile, her captain's summons went to the left to cover the flank. The earth wall did not cover their flank, and the summons guarded the flank. Her captain was on the right flank along with Castor who just landed and Renan who looked eager to fight.
At the sight of the gorgeous woman next to Tang Shaoyang, Khaya jumped off the wall. She had a flying skill which was why she did not look that impressive when the others gained wings to fly. She did not use the skill, letting herself free-fall. Until her feet were a few inches away from the ground she used the flying skill, stopping herself from crashing.
Khaya landed next to the fallen angel, and she blinked her eyes a few times, confused. She did not understand why she also jumped down. Even Castor and Renan were surprised to see the former Daenelis Clan's captain jump down with them.
Because she jumped down, her clan members followed her. They landed behind her, albeit confused because this was not something her captain would do before.
'Did I fall to Radiance's provocation?' Khaya herself tried to think of the reason why as she also did not know why.
After that, the remaining The Reds members followed and they occupied the right flank.
"The enemy is here! Get ready to engage!"
Her captain's voice snapped her out of her thoughts as she pulled her swords. She was dual-wielding, holding a sword in each of her hands. She got rid of the useless thoughts in her mind and focused on the enemy ahead of her. Even though she heard Radiance snicker at her for an unknown reason, she ignored him and focused on the minotaur void creature.
She was the first one to make his move, dashing forward toward her first prey. The swords glowed in green, and her figure blurred into the first void creature. She jumped toward the minotaur and cut the neck. It happened in a split second, and she killed it in one strike.
Khaya furrowed her brow because it was weird, something like this never happened before. She was strong enough to kill them, but she never killed them in one strike like this. She landed right on the minotaur's shoulder as she severed the head.
[It's Stats Diff! You have more stats in anything, some of them were tripled, and of course, you will be able to kill them in one strike. That's enough dilly-dallying, it's time to fight before your captain takes them all. It's time to dance!]
Khaya glanced at her captain behind her, fifty meters behind. The man was holding a battle-axe and still had not made any move yet. She kicked the body of the dead void creature and jumped in the air. Her figure glowed in white as she dove into the middle of the void creature.
Four minotaur's heads flew over as she landed on the ground. At the same time, snow spread out from her leg, covering the whole area in snow.
[It's showtime!] Radiance cheered in her head.
