Hmhm, so far, so good.
Looking down at the labyrinth of ramparts from atop an observation tower, I confird that things were progressing as I planned.
Rauls army moved as anticipated, which was to split up into smaller groups so that they could find the exit faster.
Whenever a group runs into a dead end, I made the ramparts move so that they would be locked in.
As a result, Rauls army has gone from 5,000 soldiers to only 1,000.
That being said, even if they didnt do that and moved as one instead, they wouldnt be much better off. In all likelihood, they would run into dead ends multiple tis and be exhausted by the ti they make it to the village.
So, in the end, simply moving as one couldnt be called a flawless decision either, if there ever was one.
I know theyre our enemy and all, but I cant help but feel a little sorry for them.
Whata labyrinth whose paths can be modified at willhow is this even remotely fair
Selen and Selius said so as they looked at the panicking soldiers with eyes filled with sympathy.
The labyrinths still solvable, though. The more of them I trap, the less routes there are, making it easier to reach the exit.
Again, whats the point of being so virtuous?
By the way, I did think of making a three-dinsional labyrinth by also adding in underground tunnels, but decided against it in the end since it would be impossible to do in such a short ti.
If only I had the tiit sounds a whole lot like a dungeon though
Raul-sama! Weve lost contact with another unit that has scouted ahead!
Damn it! Whats going on here!?
Rauls irritation has reached critical levels.
He has been receiving such reports one after another. Apparently, the units that have went ahead to check on so routes have all vanished.
In anticipation of enemy ambushes, each unit had about 500 people. Like that, as long as the ambush wasnt anything grand, the unit could repel it by themselves. Or, at the very least, hold on long enough for the main body or any other unit to arrive and provide help.
A-actuallytheres this, uhm, preposterous, yes, preposterous rumor
Enough beating around the bush! Just say it already!
They say that the wallsthat the walls moved
huh?
*zugogogogogogogo*
At that mont, a rumble could be heard coming from sowhere.
It even frightened the horse that Raul was riding.
Actually, they have heard similar noises several tis before, but they had no idea what its true nature was.
Wait, dont tell
I-Im afraid so
Raul felt a shiver down his spine.
If the walls are really being moved, then no matter how much we search this damn labyrinth, well never find an exit
N-no, thats not possible! How can these walls be ever moved!?
Gah!?
Overco by his rage, Raul kicked away the soldier that delivered the report.
The main body of his army was now composed of only roughly a thousand soldiers. Moreover, after traversing the labyrinth whose exit seed less and less certain to exist, the soldiers were now tired, in both body and mind.
Even so, resting in such a place was just too dangerous. And turning back, well, Raul would never allow such a thing. The only option left was to keep moving forward.
And when the main body was composed of only 500 soldiers
Its a gate!
Look! Can you see the buildings beyond the gate!?
Then, is that finally the city!?
For so reason, the gates were wide open.
Beyond the gate was a vast and vacant land. At the mont, about 200 ard individuals were waiting on that land.
At the head of that group was a person who Raul knew all too well.
Luke! Ive finally reached you!
It was only natural to feel suspicious in this situation.
The enemy side has such splendid walls and gates, yet they kept them open. It would have made a bit of sense if the enemy side far outnumbered Rauls forces, yet they were clearly nurically inferior.
Despite all of those signs, Raulwho was thoroughly consud by his ragegave an order to his troops to take the enemy head on and without regard for whatever trap that might be lying in wait.
Chaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarggeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!
Whipping his horse hard, Raul led the charge.
however, when they were but a re 200 ters away from their enemies, the ground beneath them disappeared all of a sudden.
Hiiiiiiiii!?
!?!?
