770 A King Vs A King Battle
“Stop destroying walls, that’s enough already,” as the sky turned fiery red, and the rocks started to show up, I had to stop my little turtle now.
What I aimed for? Humph! It was obvious! This capital would be overrun by my forces, then we’d climb the walls and get the advantage of their strong defences here.
We started this war while facing an unfavourable situation when dealing with these walls of the capital. And this time it was going to be the total opposite of this.
I’d let my forces get a good taste of holding the upper hand. As for my forces, it was time for them to get a bitter taste of their f*cking walls!
As the rocks hit the ground, they exploded fiercely like each was a loaded missile!
[Use this chance and bring your boys inside the capital] I sent this to the jumper before turning to get my full attention over the capital war.
The situation here was just like a bowling ball slamming all the pieces in front of its path.
The war was simply described as one sided fight. The enemy was still in the state of denial and confusion, not even able to get what to do or where to run to survive.
The shouts of my forces seemed like they were coming from every possible direction towards them. The distance of my rear reinforcements made it enough for the shouts to echo around and scatter, looking like they were coming from everywhere.
And that added more chaos and fear to the enemy.
Fighting such enemy looked like a park walk for my forces. In the first half of an hour, the sheer losses of the enemy was really astronomical.
“Retreat,” just when I thought the Hectors were going to drop this war and surrender, a loud shout came with sparkling lights, “gather up at the magical castle, hurry!”
“Magical castle?!!” I stood in my place puzzled by such a shout. It came from the middle of the central zone of the capital. It felt like the one shouting used an item like my horn to deliver his voice in such a way.
In the middle, a shining large ball of light appeared all of a sudden. It was pure orange in colour, and it lasted for an entire minute as if it was a beacon for everyone here to flock there.
“Keep killing! Don’t let them group together!” In return for such an unknown figure, I held my horn and gave such order to all of my forces here.
Everyone got the order, and the ones fighting the Hector forces here started to push much faster.
If the enemy was trying to retreat and regroup, then it would be foolish to let them have this without taking as much as possible back from them.
p、a,nd a-n、o、vel My forces were in a much better situation, and they gained the higher ground as well. The attacks that came from the walls endangered lots of the Hectors at the ground, making them lose too much.
But the enemy already had large numbers here from the start. So even if my forces tried their best, it wasn’t that easy to stop the enemy from doing what he wanted.
And that was aside from what came from that ball of orange light.
It was a massive island, one that rivalled and beat any other island I saw to date.
To best describe it, it was at least ten times the size of the biggest island I had ever seen.
And that wasn’t the problem.
Saying it was a castle isn’t an exaggeration!
All the islands I saw before were like barren lands with nothing there except normal terrain seen on Earth and few scattering towers.
But this island… It got walls, towers, and even a massive city on its surface.
There was no single speck free there. I couldn’t see the ground thanks to all these buildings and defensive structures.
And in the middle of all this, the central part was elevated for almost fifty metres, having a big castle built on top of it, and had huge looking siege weapons.
And that flying castle was surrounded entirely with a massive globular shield, one that was shimmering in bright orange colour from time to time.
Everything about this castle island was much different than any other island I have ever seen.
To best describe the difference, it felt like comparing my mighty chariot with the weaker ones I bought out for my forces.
The difference was like heaven and hell!
And that gave me a clear picture of how hard it was going to be, that last stand the Hectors decided to put here.
Thinking about that order, it was clear what was going to happen. The forces would partially ascend up there and get the support of the entire castle to at least survive.
And the forces down below would also be protected by that castle. So it came down to just my chariot facing this castle.
Whoever would kill the other first would win.
[What should we do about this scary thing?] Hilary sent and I had no other answer but this:
[Just keep fighting the ground forces, and let me handle the rest]
[Won’t we test it first?]
[It’s better to test it using my chariot. Just keep pushing after those running forces. The more to kill, the easier it will become later on]
I didn’t need to say anymore. I then turned my vision towards the direction of the gulf, where my little turtle was showering the enemy with the fiery rocks.
“Little turtle, shift your rocks over the inside, aim at that damn castle now!”
It did great so far, buying enough time for the jumper and his forces to retreat away from the aquatic forces.
Killing them wasn’t going to make a big difference now. Instead, showering that zone around the castle and blocking the retreat route of the enemy was more important now.
