Chapter 957 Battle of Andora 2

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Loud deafening sounds resounded in the air as numerous explosions were seen appearing in various places on the yellow plains in the distance. The massive explosion managed to slightly hinder the horde's advance, killing countless Crawlers while injuring other Abyss creatures to varying degrees.

The explosion was not an accident. It was part of the traps that Julian had built.

In fact, there were many traps that had been set and scattered at the area a few miles away from the base. It was a way to alarm them whenever the hordes were closing in.

Emery stood alongside with the others at the northern wall of the base, watching the oncoming horde of Abyss creatures that looked like a plague crazily infesting the horizon and the plain.

This time, the first thing that welcomed the hordes were the 10 Plasma Turrets that Roran and his Harlight men had painstakingly set up on the walls of the base, which were able to shoot at everything that entered their one-mile absolute range.

Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam!

The deafening sound continued to reverberate through the air as a scene of destruction unfolded across the yellow plains. The Abyss creatures were advancing, but their journey was not one without obstacles.

They were forced and had to go through several hidden pitfalls that Julian had created and past the relentless bombardment that the ten Plasma Turret unleashed. After that, they were welcomed by a wide trench in front of the walls that filled with countless metal spikes, before finally being attacked by the acolytes of the Magus Academy.

Before long, the familiar scene of the base being surrounded by Abyss creatures and acolytes attacking them wildly repeated itself..

"Attack!! Everyone, don't hold back!"

Just like before, Julian bravely led the acolytes that defended the northern wall, together with Arcana and the recently healed Trish. The three of them cooperated with one another and wreaked havoc in the midst of the Abyss creatures.

In the west, Roran Harlight led the battle against the Abyss creatures alongside Orion and Rayne's squads. Meanwhile, in the east, the battle was led by Anas the Kaleos together with the Gasa siblings' squads.

It was clear that defending a base with all the defensive structures in place was a much easier task to accomplish than defending a makeshift line of defense on the vast yellow plains. This was especially so in the first fifteen minutes of the battle when the creatures that appeared were mostly the stage 2 Crawlers.

However, the same couldn't be said when the higher stage Abyss creatures such as stage 3 and 4 started to enter the fray. Together with the Flyers that threatened the base from the sky, the situation escalated quickly.

Bamm! Baamm!! Baaamm!!

The siege battle that Emery and the others currently fought in was at a completely different level than before. The Abyss creatures had come in much higher numbers and with greater strength, forcing the acolytes to use their most powerful spells and buffs in order to deal with them.

Roran, who had just killed the stage 4 Abyss creature that had emerged from the river in the east, paused for a moment to look around him. Seeing the chaos surrounding him, he couldn't help but scream out loud, "Madness! This is madness!!"

Emery himself had already created a total of 200 Mineralized Warriors to tackle the seemingly endless amount of Abyss creatures. Coupled with the consecutive casting of offensive spells he had also performed, he was fighting within the limit of his spirit pool.

Even so, they were just barely able to keep the defensive line from collapsing and the base from being overwhelmed by the Abyss creatures.

Those who were proficient in close combat quarters such as Sigurd, Orycon, and Thrax jumped into the middle of the battlefield where countless Abyss creatures could be seen. In the meantime, acolytes that excelled in ranged attacks like Chumo and Rayne would focus their attacks onto the Abyss creatures in the sky while occasionally providing cover for those on the ground.

The battle went on fiercely, and eventually a few stage 5 Ravagers joined the table. Seeing the monstrous figure gradually approaching the base, everyone naturally did everything they could to stop them from doing so.

Unfortunately, despite having been hit by many attacks, one of them still managed to reach the wall.

BOOOOMMMMM!!!!

Struck by the Ravager's massive arm, a section of the northeast wall was destroyed and crumbled into pieces. This naturally exposed those in the second line of the base to the dangers of the Abyss creatures.

Fortunately, Arcana quickly cast [Eye of Mistra] at the said Ravager and used its massive body to fill the opening and block the Abyss creatures from entering the base.

However, this incident led to another situation. As if the problems weren't enough, the two squads led by Captain Ryan and Wage Gasa that were stationed to guard the East Gate decided to use this situation as a justification to retreat from their post.

With [Blink], Emery quickly arrived in front of them.

"Stopp! Returned to your post!"

He tried to reason with them on how the base, being together will be the safest solution for them but to no avail. It was clear that the two siblings remained adamant about not following orders. Another notification deducting their points even came once more, but the two still wouldn't obey his orders.

"Please, Get Back, now!"

Emery was so enraged by the behavior of these two that the primal urge within him was ready to take over and force them to submission when suddenly the two siblings trembled for a moment and their eyes turned a glowing blue.

A kid-like figure appeared behind the two of them, with the third eye on his forehead wide open.

"I believe this is the best solution for our current situation. You can thank me later!"

He didn't even wait for Emery's response before he told the two captains to return to their posts and continue to fight the Abyss creatures. As for the rest of the squads were in fear when all quickly followed their leader to return to their post.

Emery stood there as he watched Arcana return to the battlefield. His body trembled for a moment as he hated what Arcana did, but the next moment he hated himself even more for inwardly approving his actions.

In the end, he just clenched his fists and let out a long emotional outburst.

Knowing that many lives were at stake, Emery forced himself to put his ideals aside.

Another sigh escaped his mouth before a sharp glint returned to his eyes. He was about to dive into battle once again when he suddenly received a message on his device. It came from Klea who should be currently flying over the eastern area of ​​the base.

[Emery, the horde is acting strange! I saw them heading in the direction where the transport was! Are they going to attack the transport?!]

The unexpected news that Klea brought quickly made Emery worried. He had never really thought about the possibility of defending the transport ship from the hordes of the Abyss creatures.

If the Abyss creatures were able to destroy it, wouldn't that be the end for the survivors?

Before Emery had time to think whether he should send some squads to protect the transport, another message came to his device. This one was even more difficult to receive. It came from Atlas who was currently on guard in the underground cave.

[Your guess is correct. My scan caught a lot of movement underground. The stone walls will not last long. What's your order?]

Multiple problems came at the same time, and Emery had to make a decision quickly.
