Chapter 178 - Boost of power



Chapter 178 - Boost of power

On the ground floor of the city, knights were quickly running around gathering in front of the academy. Gary had just finished gathering up the other members of the Red wings to prepare for battle.

Gary and the others had also informed the other knights to prepare for an attack, even though they weren't members of the Red wings. The knights took there warning very seriously even though Gary and the others were just students. This wasn't something to joke about and there would be a serious punishment if they were lying.

The only problem was when Gary looked at how many people were ready for battle, it was an extremely low number. There were around 100 knights at most. There had been so much infighting and the men that Sir K and Wilfred trusted were sent off for battle against the shadow plague somewhere else.

Most of the students weren't expected to do battle either and stayed in the academy.

"What do we do now?" Monk asked.

"There isn't much we can do, we just have to wait," Gary replied, "here!" Gary then threw over the spear he was holding over to Dan. "Ray told me to pass that on to you."

Dan looked at the spear for a while and noticed it was quite similar to the one Nes had used that time in the arena against the Dark Guild Leader.

"Wait a minute, did you say Ray!"

Before Dan could even ask questions about what was going on, each of them had received a message of where the attacks were coming from but not only that, Ray also added at the end of the message to be careful.

The message stated that there were three main points of attack where they had built tunnels. The Cemetery was the first one, the Library, and just outside the North gate. These were where the biggest detected Aura's were. There were also a few other tunnels but Ray couldn't see anything major heading their way.

Gary then turned around to face the others behind him including the knights. Gary started to shout to make sure his voice was loud and heard between everyone.

"As you may know, only a few months ago we had a devastating attack from the Dark guild. Many friends and loved ones were lost in the battle. Today we are facing that very same thing. I know I'm only a student here and you may not all listen to me but we know better than anyone else about the Dark guilds dealings. The last time they attacked, there was just us fighting against them in the arena, yet we still managed to fend them off."

Many of the knights started to look at the students up front, some of them with their heads hung in shame. A lot of the knights when they first came to the academy came with a dream to defend and protect the people. It was why they chose to stay at Avrion rather than work as some Nobles guard.

But that day, when they were told to stay at the academy rather than go back and help. It was truly a sting to their pride and one of the biggest regrets they held in their heart. Gary and the others didn't realize it but at that time, the knights looked up to every single one of them.

Gary continued to shout out loud.

"We can succeed again, but this time I need all our help! Who's with me!"

The knights in an instant all cheered together

"Rahh!"

"Who's with me!"

"Rahh!"

Just then though, the ground started to shake and their eardrums started to vibrate as they heard the sound of several beasts roaring out loud into the sky. The sound had echoed through the whole city and everyone knew they weren't dealing with something small.

"Monk, Martha, you two head to the cemetery and deal with whatever is there, take a group fo 20 knights with you."

Monk and Martha immediately agreed and headed off with the knights as soon as possible.

"Badger, Sloth, and Dan you three head to the library, take a group of knights with you as well. And lastly, you guys come with me, we're heading to the north gate. The rest of you search the city and let us know is there's anything you can find."

All the knights agreed in an instant. Usually, they would feel odd following someone like Gary. He was younger than them and only a second-year student but his instructions and his talk naturally made them view him in a different light. Gary was a born leader.

The three groups immediately headed to the three areas and it didn't take long for them to see the enemies they were facing. At the cemetery were Monk and Martha were, they could see three Minotaur's standing among the graves destroying everything in their path.

By the library were the twins and Dan were placed, they could see a giant like a snake creature with spider legs. It was the Slime snake.

And lastly, at the north gate, the entrance to the city was the giant tentacle one-eyed slug that Gary and the others had met at the bridge. Only this time there were two of them.

As soon as the knight's eyes met with the creatures, they had instantly frozen in place. The knights had never faced or even seen creatures as powerful as these before. The other problem was there was no one to take command.

The master knights weren't there and most of the Squire master had gone out to do battle out of the city.

At the front gate, Gary noticed that the people behind him had stopped moving and froze.

"What are you doing, if we do nothing, we all die!"

But this time, Gary's words were completely useless. They were too scared, paralyzed by fear. Many of them wanted to turn and run but they knew they had nothing to run too.

Just then Gary had received a message from the other two groups stating the exact same thing. That the knights were frozen and too scared to do battle.

Gary was stumped. It was going to be impossible to face these creatures on their own.

Then suddenly a very loud deep frightening roar was heard from behind them. A roar that was louder than any of the beasts they ever heard.

The roar was so loud that even the beats were paralyzed with fear. Then suddenly all members of the Red wings received a message.
