Zephyrwolf slamd his fist onto a wall and wanted to charge out again. However, Hades imdiately held him back and shouted, What are you doing!
Zephyrwolf yelled back at him, Bullshit! Of course Im gonna save them!
Hades looked pissed off and said coldly, You idiot! Cant you tell this wave is entirely different from the first one? You wont be so lucky this ti! You cant just go and kill everything and beco the saviour! Youre exposed already!
Just when Zephyrwolf wanted to refute Hades, Drako Yau interrupted. Hades is right. He had a troubled look beneath his mask. Youre already exposed to the enemy. They now see you as our main fighter. I dare to say that once you show up, hundreds of monsters will imdiately take care of you. Once you die, our morale will plumt and the fight will be over.
Shaking off Hades arm, Zephyrwolf was downhearted. Then what? We just let them die?
Hey, dont tell that youre treating this as ancient warfare. Its a ga, a ga. They can imdiately resurrect after they die. What we have to do is to hold out until our main forces return from the altar to the frontlines. Hades snickered.
During the ti of their short conversation, the thousand players had been utterly decimated. On the other hand, the beastn army looked completely unscathed. They reford their formation and started charging at the city of Yoda.
The clerics who were situated right outside the city walls turned ghastly pale. The seemingly secure line of defence that consisted of a thousand players disappeared in just 10 minutes.
At that mont, Hades shot his cold glare at the ranged players who stood at the battlents on the city walls. The first wave was too weak, so all of you werent called to action. Now is the ti to show your skills.
Ranged players consisted of not only hunters, but also mages. They were a force to be reckoned with.
Mages had extrely high area-of-effect and burst damage, whereas hunters had quicker attack speed and higher single target damage. They both had common weaknesseslow health and defence. Hunters had it better because their main attribute was Dexterity, and they also had relatively high Evasion. anwhile, mages were really weak when it ca to close quarters combat. In exchange, they could dish out overwhelming area-of-effect damage, making them an indispensable force on the battlefield.
It could be said that they were one of the trump cards. The more Drako Yau thought about it, the more annoyed he felt. He had not expected that they had to mobilise the ranged troops on just the second wave. There were a total of five waves
The most annoying part was that while the enemy were rely monsters that had respawned, they actually employed tactics! Baiting the enemy into their ranks, then rounding them up from behind in an encirclent? What the hell? Looking at the dense battlefield of human and monster, Drako Yau felt that the number of mysteries about this ga was only increasing.
Take aim. Hades command sounded icy-cold as he looked at the approaching army of beastn.
Four thousand tres.
Three thousand tres.
A player couldnt hold back and asked, Cant we attack already?
Shut up. All he received was Hades frosty glare.
Two thousand tres
A thousand and five hundred tres
Mages! Fireball! Cast it at maximum range!
Receiving Hades command, the mages held their staves high and each conjugated a fireball on the tip of their weapons. The balls of flas dashed through the sky and descended from above. The beastn turned their gazes towards the sky, shock and terror filling their minds. The legs of the beastn who led the charge almost ceased moving upon the terrifying sight.
Ill kill those who stop! Charge! A high-ranked beastman roared.
The beastn could only bite the bullet and continue their charge. The mont they crossed the one-thousand-tre mark, they were within range of the mages fireballs.
The earth shook and a series of deafening booms shrouded the battlefield. The outskirts of the city walls had transford into a sea of flas. The screams and wails of beastn could be heard everywhere. Hades, however, spared no rcy and made another command.
Hunters, prepare to fire Heart-Piercing Shot! Those below Level 15, fire Double Shot at an angle! On my signal! Five, four, three, two, one, fire!
The sounds of arrows whizzing through the air sounded like an orchestra. Countless arrows embedded themselves into the bodies of beastn and wolves.
Mages! Attack at will! Hunters, prepare to fire again once the cooldown is over! On my command!
Be it Drako Yau or Zephyrwolf, they admired Hades from the bottom of their hearts after witnessing him in action.
If Zephyrwolf was a brave general who personally led a charge and could boost the armys morale with his actions, then Hades was the most standard general you could possibly find. Cooldown ti, range, everything was calculated and tid to perfection. Under his command, the effects of every ranged players attacks were maximised.
Hades was the best player in War of the Daemons for a reason. It was only natural that he was experienced in large scale wars between guilds or even nations. After overcoming the barrier of uncoordinated movents in Real World, he was now showing his forr glory as a well-renowned player.
Tens of thousands of tres away from the battlefield, the purplish teenager who was sitting on his luxurious chair was sowhat startled. Oh? Such a fine general. His timing is perfect even when attacking at such a long range. Well, its partly because our armys not very well-trained. If theyre trained to stop once they see the mages chanting, there would be much fewer casualties.
Hearing the young mans words, the beastn tribe leader Hiller imdiately said in awe, Sir, I beg for your forgiveness!
Dismissing it by waving his hand, he said, I dont an to bla you. I never had high hopes for you anyways. Looks like itll be a failure again, try harder the next wave.
After hesitating briefly, Hiller said, Sir, our commander is still in reserve
The young man humd, seemingly intrigued. You seem confident, dont you? Put up a good show for then.
As the ranged players were getting close to a spectacular victory, the lee players who had been surrounded and killed had finally rejoined the fray. One after another, they rushed out of the tunnels. Also, friendly fire was disabled thanks to the sieges unique setting. The lee players were now slaughtering the beastn who were suppressed by the ranged attacks raining down from the city walls.
Hah Zephyrwolf let out a long sigh and smiled. Great, looks like this waves ours. Turning to look at Drako Yau, he realised that despite the mask covering Drako Yaus face, he could tell the face beneath it wasnt a happy one.
Hades also returned from his commanding post. The situation no longer required his commands. There are five waves in total. Just comparing the first two waves, the monster armys strength was an entire tier stronger in the second wave. I really dont get why youre feeling optimistic.
Zephyrwolf had sothing to say, but Drako Yau started speaking before he could. Thats not what Im worried about.
The two imdiately turned to look at him. Yet, Drako Yau only looked down at the battlefield emotionlessly. Im worried about the enemys true commander. If an actual person is commanding the army of monsters from behind, itll get really troubleso
