Battle of Ascension

Chapter 404: We Can't for any Longer

As they planned, 21 Lords just watched from the hundred meters tall wall that guarded the fortress. Despite the catapult and ballista were getting destroyed by Asuka, they had no intention of protecting the weapons.

However, soon 21 Lords noticed there was a person dashed out from the opposite side. The person was wearing black armor and he held no weapon.

They recognized this man, the man was the leader of Happy Guild. At least, it was the result of their investigation since the day Happy Guild stayed at the Bedlam's border.

A man rushed to five million armies, 21 Lords did not know whether the man was confidence in his strength or stupid. But they could see over 20 thousand armies behind the man also began moving, but it stopped immediately afterward.

It seemed they received an order to not attack first as the archer kept wrecking the ballista and catapult. They bought these things just in case the whole of Europe turned against them and these things were good to bombardment a huge force.

However, using this thing to fight against a little force was not suitable. Moreover, Happy Guild forces were out of range of ballista and catapult shot range.

Ballista could only shot at 1,000 meters at the furthest farthest and catapult maximum shot range was 3,000 meters. Meanwhile, Happy Guild stayed at the least at 5,000 meters. There was no way these things could reach Happy Guild forces.

Moreover, Lord guessed Happy Guild already knew the shot range of ballista and catapult. That was why they stayed in the safe zone. After all, Ascension Guild was the who sold these things to them.

So, it was not surprising if all guilds knew about ballista and catapult as Ascension Guild would offer these two long-range weapons to the guild who had territory.

Moreover, ballista and catapult could be considered a cheap weapon a big guild like Devil Apostle. So the Lord did not care about these weapons. The most important thing was to get the detail of their enemy.

One of them had witnessed Long Xinya killed 3 Supreme Marshall easily and Long Xinya did not even use her full strength.

Even though Supreme Marshall was only one rank lower than them, but the difference in the strength was too far. They were much stronger than Supreme Marshall, even 20 Supreme Marshalls were not a match of one Lord in their Demon Transformation.

What they needed was to know the limit of their enemy. They would only fight when they were sure they would gonna win. What if the enemy power was far stronger than they expected, they would run away of course.

Even though it looked like a coward, they did not care. As long as they were alive, they could have their revenge later rather than dying like a fool even after knowing they could not win the fight.

Of course, they also believed that it was less likely to happen as the Happy Guild was not that strong. 5 million forces versus over 20 thousand forces, it was more than enough to extinguish Happy Guild.

At least, it was what 21 Lords believed. As for their subordinate, they did not care about their 5 million subordinates at all.

Subordinate was just like a number to them. They could get more subordinates later when they invaded the other three continents. So, they used whatever they had to confront Happy Guild.

They even called Devil Apostle explorer team. Explorer team was a team that explored the territory on the north of Russia.

Most territories on the south belonged to Yester Tribe. So they were heading toward the north to expand their territory. The problem was the beast and monster in the north.

Even though there was no strong tribe like Yester Tribe in the north, but the monster and the beast on the strong was hard to handle. The beast and monster in the north stronger than in the south.

Devil Apostle sent their elite force to the north and now they recalled them back just in case 5 million was not enough. 21 Lords never underestimated the enemy they faced despite they were low in number.

Now, it was time to see the Happy Guild guild leader's strength. When Randy reached a hundred meters away from the Devil Apostle army, a dark red sword condensed in his hand.

21 Lords noticed it, but then Randy stopped his advance and the dark red sword vanished from his hand.

21 Lords looked at each other, wondering what the Happy Guild leader wanted to do.

Randy stopped his advance as he remembered something. Just now, he wanted to use his Myriad Chiliastic Sword to kill the Devil Apostle army. He wanted to use that skill as he could kill the Devil Apostle army faster.

However, he remembered about Supreme Marshall Krasimir incident. If he showed his real strength from the start, it could scare 21 Lords.

What if they ran away? It would be troublesome as the main target was these 21 Lords. They could make another Devil Apostle, so they had to clean these 21 Lords.

The Devil Apostle army was a hundred meters away from him, but Randy stood there as he was in deep thought. He was thinking about what skill he should use against Devil Apostle.

However, even the enemy was standing a hundred meters away from the Devil Apostle army. Devil Apostle army also did not attack Randy, they just stood there with no intention of moving.

They were obeying the Lord's order. Defense, they have to defend the fortress and did not move from the spot to avoid the battle of attrition. It could a good option for Happy Guild, so Lord ordered them only attacked when the enemy reached their range of attack.

'Shall I use Rocky?'

But Rocky was at the peak of Eternal Grade.

'What if Rocky also show an overwhelming strength that scares them away?'

When this thought appeared, there was a satisfied voice rang in his head, "No, I refuse to fight against these demons. Demon meat taste is awful, I don't like them, "

It was Rocky's voice that rang inside his head. Rocky could not talk normally like a human, but he could talk with him. It was kind of telepathy and only Randy who could hear Rocky's voice.

"Then, the last choice is Fire Elemental Power, "

If he only used Fire Elemental Power to kill the Devil Apostle army. Maybe the Lord thing that he only excelled in the Elemental Power. It could bait them out.

After all, until now Randy could not see Lord. There was no figure that stood out amongst the Devil Apostle army that looked like a Lord. But Randy sure the Lord was watching them from afar, a place that could not be seen.

After that, Randy sent a message Asuka to look these 21 Lords as he was baiting them out.

Randy looked up and crimson fire swirled around his arm. Randy dashed forward while Devil Apostle army raised their weapon toward Randy.

Surprisingly, they did not use their Demon Transformation to confront Randy.

Randy slammed his fist toward the foremost Devil Apostle.

Boom!

Crimson flame raged out and it engulfed the Devil Apostle army at the frontline. The flame raged out in 10 meters area and burned everything there.

With the flame fist, Asuka also finished the catapult and the ballista on the wall. Now she had to continue another task that given to her, looking for 21 Lords.

"Charge!!!"

Udin and Gusti let out a piercing cry and the Happy Guild immediately charged forward.

Meanwhile, Randy continued his rampage. Currently, Randy's body covered in the crimson flame. He was attacking the Devil Apostle army like a wild beast.

Randy attacked brutally and blindly. There was no pattern in his attack. He just attacked whatever in front of him. He rushed to the center of 5 million Devil Apostle army.

Where Randy released punch, the crimson flame would engulf 10 meters area. When he shot fireball, 20 meters area would be engulfed.

An hour non-stop, Happy Guild went on Rampage. However, as Randy told the core member to not use their real strength. They were limiting their strength to not scare 21 Lords.

However, despite they were rampaging non-stop at Devil Apostle army's center, but there was no sign that the Devil Apostle army lessened. They kept charging toward Happy Guild guild member like a hungry beast.

Surprising, they did not run away like the first Devil Apostle army. The clash continued for another 3 hours but based on the number of the Devil Apostle army, the clash would still continue for a long time if this continued.

But then, Randy received a message from Asuka. Randy smiled when he read the message content.

On The Top Wall

One Lord approached the wall's edge and tilted his head down, looking at the current situation.

"Hmm, it's our turn now, I guess? They look exhausted, this is our chance!" The cold voice rang.

"Not yet, we have to wait longer, " A gentle voice voiced out her mind.

"But" Just as the cold voice wanted to refute the gentle voice, there was another voice rang.

"But we can't wait for any longer. How about if we finish it here, "

21 Lords turned their head toward the voice. They saw the guild leader of Happy Guild was there. Behind Randy, there was also a woman that categorized dangerous.

Besides these two, there were five men and two women besides these two. Seeing the Happy Guild core members were here, 21 Lords realized they had been found out. Whether they wanted to fight or wait, but now they really had to fight.
