Chapter 443 - 444 – First prince and second prince move – Part 5.
"FUCK! HOLD STILL YOU FUCKER!" – shouted Conquest as he swinged his axe over and over, creating giant shockwaves of energy as well as blast of lava that completely demolished everything nearby, but were unable to stop GreyHunt who just forced his way through everything with his bullets and swords, destroying Conquest attacks, before then securing an decapitating slash on the Conquest, with resulted in his cursed mark to spread around the area.
"What's wrong? Tired?" – said GreyHunt in mocking tone, provoking Conquest to swing his axe around, trying to hit GreyHunt with enchanted attack, only for the GreyHunt to easily block the attack without even getting pushed back, alarming and scaring Conquest before he ended up getting hit multiple times with the Arch Devil Seven bullets.
"!?" – Conquest got alarmed even more upon realizing that the black vein marks through his body were spreading even faster, causing Conquest to quickly retreat and use [Berserk Will], boosting his defense and HP regeneration.
However, GreyHunt did not showed even bit of mercy as he unleashed an hail of bullets at the man, forcing on Conquest on defense as he used his defense skills and giant axe to defend himself… However, it wasn't enough as he was taking damage non stop as was even getting pushed backwards while the dark marking on his body that just started shrinking had once again started growing.
"?!"
(SHIT! AT THIS RATE THE ARMOR EFFECT WILL REACH ITS LIMIT!) – though panicking Conquest.
"!"
Suddenly, something came crushing right between Conquest and GreyHunt.
As Conquest looked, he realized that the thing that went flying was Leonidas dead body that started disappearing already.
"?!"
(Leonidas?!) – though panicking Conquest before moments later Long cam also flying, as he stabbed the ground with his claws and as soon as he came, Conquest realized that the Long was missing both his right wing and right arm.
Moments later, Rampage came flying, bashing into Long as he raised up his guard, before then dragging both of them away instantly from the Conquest and GreyHunt.
"FUCK!" – shouted Long as he mustered enough strength to knock back Rampage and stop her charge.
"[Qiongqi Vitality]." – Long used his skill to quickly regrowing his missing wing and arm.
"Oh? That is new." – said Rampage while smiling before then rushing at Long and engaging an close range battle with Long.
"[Vermilion Shot]!" – Long dodged Rampage spear before then quickly landing an counter attack right on the Rampage face with an fist covered in fire.
However, even after getting punched right in the face, Rampage was unbothered as she used the [Shield Strike] to land an solid hit on Long, before then using [Domination Thrust], an [Spear Master] skill to land an piercing attack right in the Long stomach that went through his body.
Rampage lifted up Long giant monster body into the air, however this gave an chance for the Long to use the [Knock Out Hit], hitting Rampage right in the head from two sides with his fists, applying an stun effect, with in turn allowed Long to get off the Lance by pushing him out of it.
However, before Long could gotten away, Rampage rammed her lance into Long body once again.
"YOU FUCKER! I WAS READY FOR THE STUN!"
[Great Knight] skill.
[Stand Against Foe]
[Increase your defense and resistance against negative effects while gaining an high resistance against stun type effects.]
Rampage slammed her lance into the ground alongside Long who was impaled against it, before then starting to beat up Long non stop with her great shield and lance.
"…."
"Welp. I think he is finished." – said GreyHunt as Conquest tried running at him, only to shot the guild master of the Red Lions in his leg, stopping his charge.
"Give it up already Conquest. You lost."
"If you didn't noticed, the so called "Ranker Players" are getting killed left and right."
Ampi was dominating the fight against Lilium.
Lil was literally using metal plants to tear off Deven limbs one by one.
Leonidas was already killed.
The female vice guild master of the Champion Scales guild Huánghòu had all of her tamed beast get slaughtered by Shri before then getting her head ripped off with Shri whip.
Bullet came flying down out of nowhere near Conquest as he saw his headless body that was killed by Oron who was sniping all the way from the fortress.
Bariv tried using his elementals and spirits to stop Howl, Swim and Wretch, only to get destroyed alongside his monsters.
Tail alongside the Litle Bastards were cutting down any members of the Champion Scales and the Iron Will guild with ease while using the monster army under their command to hunt down anybody escaping.
"Welp. I honestly did not expected you to pull out the rankers to your aide… But by the look of things, it wasn't enough." – said GreyHunt as he looked around and saw the destruction happening everywhere while laughing.
Conquest tried rushing in at the GreyHunt who wasn't looking, however without even turning around, GreyHunt shot Conquest with [Bomb Bullet], hitting Conquest and blowing him up.
"Hey. You know you can just die already and stuff? You are just now wasting everybody time." – said GreyHunt.
"SHUT UP! I WILL- "
Conquest tried standing up in anger and hatreat, but as soon as he tried to, the dark marks had spread through his entire body, before moments later Conquest fallen on the ground dead since his armor effect had reached its max limit.
"…. Welp. He died an pathetic death." – said GreyHunt.
"OKAY! SLAUGHTER THEM ALL ALREADY! THEY LOST ALREADY!" – shouted GreyHunt as he commanded the army of monsters and the members of the Purple Hyena guild to go all out and destroy the enemy army.
With the defeat of the Conquest, one of the people leading the first prince army, things did not ended well afterworlds.
The rankers and their guilds that were supposed to provide massive support were taken down one by one without even taking down an single player from the Purle Hyena guild.
The rankers guilds were easily taken down, resulting in the soldiers morals dropping rapidly.
However, it wasn't all as the second prince army was destroyed.
Hawk and the general in charge of the second prince army had been both killed by the ClownFrog.
Hawk tried ordering the forces of the second prince to retreat after the situation turned for the worst, but unfortunately many of people that tried to escape were hunted and killed. Its unknown if anybody had survived.
The results went as fallow.
Both of the sieges attempts made by the first prince and the second prince armies resulted in the failure, with them not being able to take over the fortresses city, but managing to deal an lot of damage to it to the point the urgent repairs are needed.
The Garog did ended up losing a lot of soldiers from this fight, however demons can be resummoned while the undeads and golems can be replaced with new ones.
Even though it wasn't an one sided victory, both the first prince and the second prince had lost their entire armies and the one that took the much bigger hit was non other than the second prince since the dragons and wyverns he invested in did costed him a lot of money.
With the second and the first prince armies getting destroyed, an armies that were supposed to make some progress ended up dead, the reputation of both the first prince and the second prince took hit.
But not only that, the fear of the Garog kingdom was spreading.
The people of the Empire were now properly terrified of the Garog kingdom.
Before it was just fear, but now? It was despair.
The first prince army and the second army did not went down without fighting and heavily damaging the fortresses as well as reducing an good number of the Garog kingdom soldiers. but that did not changed the fact that the first prince and the second prince lost, resulting in chaos among the people of the empire.
This wasn't just some big lose, it was an massive lose that was heard through the empire as well as neighboring kingdoms later on, but that is the story for later.
As of right now, the chaos was spreading through the empire, but while that was happening, the first princess of the Oin empire and the king of the Garog kingdom had held the secret meeting.
"Any progress?" – asked ClownFrog as he used the communication mirror.
"Yes… And no." – replied princess Amelia.
"As of right now, the entire capital city is extremely heavily defended, since it's the main base of my brother Apollo."
"And there is also the contract still hanging a noose around my neck."
"This is an limit what I can do…. And so, I had made an announcement today that I yield my rights to the throne this day. I had already made and speech and spread the news, meaning that the contract of the heavenly and hellish dragon has stopped affecting me."
"!"
"You sure about this?" – asked ClownFrog.
"Well, after what you did, neither of my brothers have enough power right now to do anything reckless against me… But it won't be long before they find out the truth, they maybe be already putting pieces together. Unlike Simons, these two bastards are smart." – said princess.
"Then you want to sign the contract between us as soon as possible to secure your people safety?" – asked ClownFrog.
"Yes. However, I don't think any secrets meeting will work, since both of my brothers boosted their defenses even more after losing and using any form of familiar to sight the contract wouldn't be good idea, since it may end up getting found out." – said the princess.
"The only way for you to do it is for you to get to my territory."
"I understand, however it will end up taking sometime." – said ClownFrog.
"The damage your idiotic brothers did were somewhat huge and resurrecting undeads in massive scale takes a lot of time."
"To make things worse, there were slave traders attacks happening, attacking not only mine people, but also the people of the empire."
"!"
"Wait, are you… Are you saying that the 'benefactor' had finally revealed themselves?!" – asked worried first princess.
"We don't know. They could had been the remains of the third prince faction that somewhat escaped our notice… But something is off about their timing and how they appeared quickly out of nowhere." – said ClownFrog.
"They attacked the exact moment the two attacks took place, as if they were prepared for it and knew in advance about the attack."
"This can't be just random coincidence."
"The question is of whenever or not the 'benefactor' had been behind it OR did he launched multiple slave hunts?"
"Either way, we need to investigate it before worse comes to worse and we will have an rampaging army of humanoid monsters wrecking both the Oin empire and Garog kingdom."
"You do understand that, right?"
"Yes." – replied the first princess.
(Shit. The 'benefactor' is moving now of all the times? Does he know that we know what he wants?) – though the princess.
(I kept the informations about the staff only to my most loyal agents…. So, was there an rat by any chance?)
(NO! This isn't important right now!)
(Right now both my brothers may find out the truth regarding my announcement and may end up attacking me and now we are also possible dealing with the 'benefactor' making an move?!)
(As soon as thing started looking good…. For fuck sake.)
