BXBX NOVEL Chapter 51 - Time To Slaughter
"So, what is the plan??" Ezekiel whispered to Alex\'s ears. While watched the wave of green-skinned goblins coming closer and closer to them. He feels like he will be buried alive if he doesn\'t hide behind the shield wall. "How can we survive the enemy\'s charge??" Ezekiel followed Alex without any plan at all as he couldn\'t think of any.
"I need a weapon... Just stay behind and follow me... I\'ll handle everything." Alex replied as she bent her knees, intending to charge forward when the enemy got close enough.
Alex peered for any good weapons that the goblins were holding. Alex has a tiny selection of weapons. She only sees the goblins carrying a few hand axes, daggers, short bows, short swords, and shields.
These weapons aren\'t perfect for a large-scale battle because of their attack range. But it was the ideal weapon for the goblins. It perfectly utilizes their small stature. Where they could take advantage of their half the size of a human.
She doesn\'t see any good weapons because the goblin\'s weapons can only kill one enemy in one attack. She prefers having a weapon like Akkar, where one strike of the great ax can quickly kill a lot of goblins
"GUARDIANS!!
"The enemy is right in front of you!!"
"But with our strength..."
"Even the goblin army is nothing to fear!!"
"I believe in all of you..." Akkar whispered his last words through the air. But even though no one heard what he said, everyone gleamed with radiance as they waited for the enemy to come.
"Hold your shields with all you\'ve got. Yours and your comrade\'s lives will depend on it!!" Von also gave his words to the people beside him as he gripped his shield harder than ever in his life. "As long as we are here, they won\'t get through!!"
"Ready?" Alex mumbled as she turned around to look at Ezekiel, who was now clenching his staff.
"Always..." Ezekiel replied as he returned the smile at her. He can tell that she is very excited and delighted.
"RANGE ATTACKERS!!"
"ON MY SIGNAL!! Throw everything you have to the enemy!!" Akkar commanded as the goblins were now almost in the range of their attacks. The attack will be wasted if everyone fires at the same time. The range attacker needs to coordinate for a better outcome.
"WAIT..." Akkar ordered as he raised his palm to the range attackers. He is waiting for the fourth wave of the goblins to enter their range. So that they can to take advantage of their magic attacks that can hit multiple enemies at once.
"WAIT..." The second wave of the goblins passes their range.
"Commander, the goblins are closing on our shield wall." A village guard cautioned with worry.
"A little more..." Because of his strong trust with the people on the frontline. He isn\'t worried of a few goblins reaching their shield wall at all.
"MAGIC DIVISION FIREEEEE!!!!" Akkar howled at the top of his lungs seeing the right time to engage.
"NOW!!" At the same time Alex pushed of his feet off the ground as she started charging.
A barrage of small-scale magics devastated the fourth wave. The fourth wave mainly consist of goblins that are carrying small rounded shields. Goblins fell one after the other as they ate fireballs, ice shards, as well rock bullets.
Akkar made sure to destroy the ones carrying a shield with magic first. So that they wouldn\'t be able to reduce the fatality rate of their bow users with their shields.
"GUNS DIVISION FIRE!!!" As for the cannon fodders on the first to the third wave of the goblin army. He will let the players using guns handle it.
"BOWS DIVISION FIRE!!" Then as soon as the fifth and sixth wave of the goblin army entered their range. Akkar instantly gave the order to execute them.
"While others FIRE AT WILL!!" Akkar then slow
While this horrifying yet breathtaking scene of magic, arrows, and bullets is happening.
Alex and Ezekiel are storming through the battlefield like it is nothing. Luckily the players behind them are not idiots as no bullets are coming straight their way.
Alex leaped as the first goblin arrived on her face. She then stepped on the goblin\'s head as she traveled one head after the other. She wouldn\'t waste her time on this cannon fodder that doesn\'t have any weapons. Her goal was the goblins on the 9th wave that carries a short sword.
Ezekiel followed Alex\'s footsteps. Even though Ezekiel doesn\'t move as smoothly as Alex. Since she is purposely slowing down her pace, He can still somewhat copy what she\'s doing.
Yet currently, Ezekiel feels like he is a heavy burden for Alex with how weak his current self is compared to hers.
"Hurry!! The second wave of attack is coming." Although Alex looks like she is just charging ahead. She is actually making sure that Ezekiel is able to keep up with her.
At the same time, Alex passed by the third wave of the goblins.
The remnant goblins that were able to survive the onslaught of their range attackers. Has died in the hands of the village guard\'s spears.
And just as Alex expected, the melee fighters were not able to help much at all. It will take quite some time before the melee fighters will have their fun. Until the range attackers deplete all of their mana. The melee fighters can only laze around behind the tanks.
"Commander, two people are running across the range of our attackers. What should we do?" A village guard said as he saw Alex and Ezekiel charging on their own.
"Everyone, hold your fire for 3 seconds!!" Akkar ordered.
"But sir... the enemy will get close to our line of defense."
"Trust me... Trust our frontlines... And trust them..." Akkar mumbled as he counted three seconds in his head. He doesn\'t know why Ezekiel and Alexandria are rushing on their own. However, Akkar owned them big time, so he needed to somewhat help them to the best of his ability. Akkar guesses that three seconds should be good enough for them to be out of their range.
"EVERYONE, FIREEEE!!" Without wasting any second, Akkar roared as soon as the 3 seconds were up
Alex and Ezekiel smiled as they realized that the barrage of attacks had stopped for a few seconds. It gave them enough time to run through outside the range of their allies. "I did not pick a bad commander this time..." Ezekiel mumbled as he followed behind Alex.
Alex licked her lips as her target was now in front of her face. "Time to slaughter..."
