Chapter 574 - 575 – War is here.
(So, we are dealing with demon lord emperor, eh?) – thought the dwarven general.
(Fucking holy kingdom. They were so confided that this bastard will go and confront them, but here we are. We are the ones with the demon lord on our hands.)
"…"
(And none of the flying enemies were taken down…. Did they counter attacked our barrage before it reached them?)
(True, the ones that we fired were long range and the most powerful ones were not fired, since their range isn't the best…. But still, it should had taken down some flying enemies.)
(Were the dragons the bait? Did they wanted to concentrate our fire on….?)
(Is something flying towards us?) – thought the dwarven general as he saw something coming down.
The dwarven general tried spotting what the "thing" that was falling was….. And after he finally managed to catch it in the telescope lenses, he saw that the "thing" was a person.
To be more specific, it was Rampage.
"!"
"ENEMY! GET READY TO FIRE!" – shouted the dwarven general, causing the dwarven gunman to prepare to fire.
The dwarves fired at the falling Rampage, but she deployed [Fortress Wall Shield], creating an giant barrier shield that blocked the bullets with ease, before moments later Rampage used [Rage Charge] to launch herself faster towards the ground, causing her to hit it and create a large shockwave that hit several dwarves and caused some of them to get flying.
"!"
"ENEMY IS ON THE GROUND! EN- "
Rampage without hesitation rushed in after falling down, impaling several dwarves on her lance before then getting shot by the dwarven gunmen.
"!?"
"The hell?!" - said confused dwarf.
But she didn't cared after getting shot, which confused the dwarves as she then started going on full out rampage, attacking anything near her.
The dwarves tried attacking her or restraining her movements, but it did not worked as she just smashed her way out.
And whenever she got hurt, she would just jump in feral way at one of the dwarves nearby and drink them dry.
"!"
One of the massive golems tried smashing Rampage from above with its giant mechanical fist, but she just raised her shield and blocked the attack.
"!?"
(She blocked it?!) – thought the general as he took out his rifle and aimed at Rampage.
"GENERAL! THE FLYING ENEMIES ARE ATTACKING!" – shouted the dwarven soldier.
"!"
(I see! So that bitch was a distraction!) – thought the dwarven general as she saw the flying enemies on the move, alongside ClownFrog who was preparing to cast a spell.
"Fire the- "
"NEW ARMY! FROM THE FLANK! UNDEADS ARE COMING THIS WAY!" – shouted second soldier as an army of undeads accompanied by vampires were running towards the dwarven army from the side.
"Tch!"
"THEN WHAT ARE YOU IDIOTS WAITING FOR?! KILL THEM ALL!" – shouted dwarven general as he then tried aiming with his gun again at Rampage, only to then see her sending dwarves flying left and right, before then appearing right before Rampage.
"?!"
Dwarf general tried using his rifle as an shield to block Rampage lance, only to then get knocked back after receiving an hit.
"WHAT KIND OF IDIOT GENERALS WEARS AS SHINY AS POSSIBLE ARMOR IN THE GOD DAMNED WAR?!" – shouted smiling Rampage, mocking the dwarf.
"A one that knows how to hunt." – replied dwarven general.
"!"
Before Rampage realized, three tanks were aiming right at her with their cannons, before moments later they all fired all at once, blowing up the area where Rampage was and even hitting some of the dwarven soldiers as well.
"Ha! Damn beast! Now you…..?!"
Rampage stood in the cloud of smoke, before then walking out of it, completely unbothered.
"!?"
"WAIT, WHAT?!" – shouted confused dwarf.
"What? Do you really think this is the first time I got hit with something like cannons?" – said Rampage.
"I've took on hits from dragons and some things that can easily kill them in one hit."
"Do you really fucking think that because you have a big cannon, it is enough to TAKE ME THE FUCK DOWN?!"
"…"
"By the way, look up."
"?"
"?!"
Dwarf looked up and saw an giant storm of necrotic energy coming down.
The dwarves opened fire at it, but it was too late and too powerful.
This was an [Necro Storm] that was packed up with several enchantment skills, causing it to gain so much power that it just the dwarven attacks before then swallowing dwarves themselves and slaughtered countless soldiers, even destroying some of the golems.
After the [Necro Storm] has dispersed after leaving an entire area is shambles, the other flying monsters started attacking from above while the army on the ground started an head on confrontation.
And with this, the two armies had started an large scale battle, covering the entire area in destruction.
…
<<And that is pretty much how the battle with dwarves started.>>
<<We did managed to ambush them and completely wreck them before the real battle had started…. But still, these dwarves were far more annoying than we had thought.>>
<<Or more specific, they were not willing to die at all! And I mean it!>>
<<Their soldiers were wearing heavy equipment and were able to take a hit.>>
<<And even more annoyingly were these golems and thanks of theirs that had high firepower.>>
<<The battle…. Well, it lasted for quiet long amount of time…. But we had won.>>
<<We managed to destroy the dwarven army.>>
<<But not without suffering some loses on our side.>>
<<Most of this army I led were undeads and not a special ones…. So, there was no problem with them being destroyed.>>
<<But we had also lost some of a vampire soldiers and some demons I've had brought with me.>>
<<Some dragons also took a hit and even one of the demon dragons alongside undeads dragons were defeated.>>
<<Damn… I mean… I know we would have some loses, but this was an perfect ambush and stuff….>>
<<Well, that army WAS massive and powerful…. So, is it really surprising?>>
<<…. Apparently the guy leading the charge was some dragon hunter…. And he had anty dragon weapons…. For fuck sake.>>
<<And to make matters worse, this won't be the last time these guys would be attacking.>>
<<These guys were preparing for this war for ages….. Yeb. We need to exterminate those guys.>>
…
<<Days went by.>>
<<The war continues.>>
<<Right now we are still on the defensive, blocking and stopping the enemies.>>
<<Sometimes the enemies were able to take some of our territory, but we were able to take them back.>>
<<But, there was also change in attacks.>>
<<The holy kingdom attacked the beastman kingdom directly.>>
<<Obviously we send our reinforcements and managed to prevent any huge scale damage from happening….. But the dwarves?>>
<<Yea, those guys are feral.>>
<<They have launched countless attacks on us from many different spots, causing some of our territory to be taken over.>>
<<Obviously we tried our best to recover the territory we had lost…. But then we had realized some annoying problems.>>
<<The dwarves battle style.>>
<<Their "destructive" nature was pretty much wrecking stuff more than we had thought.>>
<<And the territories they had conquered? They were scavenged and wrecked.>>
<<We managed to recover some of the stolen supplies, but the settlements they had destroyed were now…. Hard to defend.>>
<<This is bad.>>>
<<The longer this war will last with these bastards, the more damage will be done to our land…. Like TOO MUCH.>>
<<….>>
<<And there are also elves.>>
<<Some of their troops had started moving around… But they had valid reason to, since their neighbors are at war with each other.>>
<<But we still don't bloody trust them.>>
<<…. *Sigh*>>
<<And most annoying part about all this? We still couldn't go on the offence.>>
<<I mean, we could, but the enemies from all directions are hyper aggressive and attacking nonstop!>>
<<Especially these god damned fucking dwarves! I'm straight up stuck dealing with them!>>
<<Ah…. This is far more annoying than war with Oin empire was.>>
<<…..Yeb. I'm calling in meeting.>>
"Okay. I know, this is all sudden and everything, but we really can't do this anymore." – said ClownFrog as he was sitting in the room alongside several mirrors that each reflected different person.
"I know we need to focus on defense and stuff, but this can't go on anymore."
"The holy kingdom priest support is healing any of the wounded soldiers on the alliances side, while the dwarven kingdom machines of war are wrecking everything."
"We can't defend."
"We need to attack."
"…"
"The most annoying problem right now are both the dwarven kingdom and holy kingdom, right? Then why don't we just focus on either of those?" – asked the female vampire general.
"What about the two smaller kingdoms then?" – asked GreyHunt.
"They maybe small, but they honestly give the enemy room to attack from different directions."
"…"
"Agree. Even though both of these kingdoms are small, they can be still an annoyance." – said Oron.
"…"
"…"
"Then…. Why don't we just attack them?" – suggested the red antman general.
"?"
"You mean like the two small kingdoms?" – asked GreyHunt.
"Yes…." – said the red antman.
"They are weaker and they should be defeated much easier and much faster than other two…. Right?"
"…"
"You are not wrong…. But the holy kingdom would definitely send their own support." – said ClownFrog.
"Not only that, but we still have to worry about the elves as well. We still don't know on which side they stand on."
"So can we really spare troops we have on standby?"
"…"
"…"
"!"
"No! He is right! The general Na'ku is right!" – said Oron.
"?"
"What do you mean?" – asked the vampire general.
"We SHOULD aim for the two smaller kingdoms." – said Oron.
"This is way more simple that you can think!"
"If we take over the smaller kingdoms first, we can then launch attack from the flank at the holy kingdom."
"…"
"True…. This is indeed good idea…. But won't this tire us out as well?" – asked the vampire general.
"These two kingdoms would get support from the alliance, meaning that taking them down wouldn't really be completely easy."
"And then we would have to aim for the holy kingdom itself."
"So wouldn't the better option to just aim for the holy kingdom itself first in order to take down the healer support?"
"…"
(Both of them are right…. And this is the problem.) – thought ClownFrog.
(Both plans has downsides and upsides…. But either way, we would suffer and exhaust ourselves.)
(The attack on dwarves is straight up out of their questions.)
(The way they fortified the territories they had taken in short times just proves how strong their defenses are….. And their temporarily defenses are just that high, then what about the solid ones at home?)
(We can't attack the dwarves with the current forces I have on my end…. We need full power if we want to break through an minimize the loses.)
(…..And there are also the FUCKING ELVES!)
(And possible even benefactor…. But we still don't know.)
(2 weeks has already passed after the war has started…. But the witches has yet to report anything regarding the "benefactor" …. Maybe they are really not involved in this war?)
"…"
(I wish to think like that…. But they did appeared out a blue more than once without being noticed by anybody and then they just disappeared as if they never existed.)
"…"
(God…. Fucking…. Dammit… This will be fucking annoying.)
