Rudra was a force to be reckoned with when he went wild on the battlefield. Not only could nobody even scratch him , he was faster and more agile than war horses sprinting at their full speed.
Rudra used [ Cloud Feet ] to have extremely nimble movement as he was a one man train wreck for the advancing forces.
Rudra’s goal was clear : – Don’t let any of the invading forces past the 1 killometer line .
And his wishes were conveyed clearly to the 200,000 elite assaulters that charger onto the Battlefront with him , trying to hold down the enemy forces as the archers and the mounted weapons on the Elite walls gunned the enemy down.
It was undoubtedly a bloody battle , as losses mounted on both sides at all four Battlefronts , however while the losses on the side of the blood merchants were larger , so were their numbers , hence every loss of life hit the elites way more than it hit the pushing enemy forces.
The biggest issue was that the enemy was a well trained army advancing as a tightly packed unit with highly efficient PvE classes like mages running amock their ranks on war horses.
This meant that while the line was held solid , the wizards had free reign to practically deal real damage to the clustered defending forces using AOE spells.
The elites were continually shelled with spells like fireblast and waterblast and thunderblast , as the tight concentration of forces made the spells supereffective as a lot of elite defensive forces were damaged because of it.
This was where the difference in quality between armies started to show as even after being backed up by thousands of archers and war machines from the wall , the elites were infact being pushed back systematically a few meters everytime as the enemies gained ground.
Rudra understood it early on , that 200,000 wasn’t going to cut it out but he did not want to reveal the special weapon yet . Being hard pressed for choices Rudra could only look for one solution.
Rudra shouted the command ” ALRIGHT BOYS , HOLD STRONG “.
The front lines clashed hard with the enemy forces at this command as they went shoulder to shoulder in trying to push the enemy lines back.
Rudra knew that if densely packed troop cycle was a disadvantage for them , then it would be the same for the enemy forces as well , and while he did not have wizards on the ground with him …. He did have bombs!!!
Rudra used the skill [ One legged leap ] as he soared above the enemy forces nearly 35 meters into the air.
Up there Rudra tossed out nearly 70-75 bombs in a timespan of 4 seconds as when he started to come back down , there was a field of explosions within enemy ranks , blowing them all up .
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Christmas came early for the elites as the bombs completely ruined the formation of the advancing forces as the debris injured the legs of many horses too!
” CHARGEE! “. Rudra commanded as he personally lead the slaughter of the enemy forces who were currently being skewered by arrows with their shield formations all blown to smithereens.
Everytime the enemy tried to reorganize , Rudra would greet them with a wave of new bombs as the casualties kept mounting on both sides in what could only be described as a bloody battle.
Although Rudra did not lose any HP , the doom armour got splattered with blood constantly as it glowed with red aura converting the blood into HP .
On the southern front , Karna was actually faring even batter than Rudra , as his chosen legion was tanks that were practically built for holding their grounds as the anti Rhino ballistae pummeled the troops behind them.
Karna with his three sword style and a 99% damage reduction was impossible to stop as he was a one man wrecking crew for the enemy forces.
Killing over 20,000 enemies alone in a span of only three hours he was a walking slaughter machine!
The side being handled by Sir Jhonny was facing a bit of problems , however Sir Jhonny had decided to solve them with trickery.
Taking a page out of Rudra’s old tricks he decided to flood the entire battlefield with water before asking Medivh in the mage tower and all the mages behind him on the walls to electrocute the bastards to death .
And while the technique had it’s flaws the best thing the electrocution caused was that while it did not kill everyone it did damage all of them including the horses who could only wobble on their feet after loosing motor control .
This made the threat of a tier 3 wizard suddenly closing in the distance and blowing the wall apart much less likely as he was able to hold the enemies past the 1 km line.
*****
The side that Neatwit was handling could be said to be the most ridiculous sight seen in war history ever.
Unlike the other warfronts where Rudra and Karna lead an entire legion of elite troops to combat the enemy tooth and nail . Neatwit decided to solo it.
Riding a giant duck , Neatwit commanded a legion of harmless ducks to fly and stick onto the faces of the enemy.
At first this entire thing was soo stupid that even the enemies were confused about what was going on , that was until one of them got annoyed by the duck pecking it’s blunt beak over his head and killed it.
That guy said ” HUH? WHAT THE HELL , IS THIS A JOKE? THESE DUCKS ARE WEAK ? Who is this guy anyways ? A dumb duckmancer? “.
Neatwit laughed when he heard this as he said ” Oh my ducks are not weak , and as to who i am? YES I AM A DUCKMANCER . BUT THIS DUCKMANCER WILL BE YOUR DEATH !
DUCKIES , IT’S QUACK QUACK POOP TIME “.
Right as Neatwit commanded them , the ducks started to squirm ‘ Quack Quack Quack quack’ like idiots and taking a dump on the heads of blood merchant soldiers who were pissed beyond beleif and started killing the ducks mercilessly.
Little did they know that this was the worst choice they could have ever made in their lives as 20 seconds later all sorts of natural disasters started to befall on the enemy troops.
Sometimes an asteroid would randomly drop off from the skies and kill a hundred soldiers or sometimes a tornado would appear in between perfectly calm winds taking off hundereds of troops , while sometimes the earth itself would open and gobble a few soldiers up before closing itself shut.
Overall the enemy forces were miserable as they could not even begin to comprehend the source of their sudden miseries as they had no means to protect themselves against it.
” HAHAHAHAHA FEEL THE POWER OF THE DUCKMANCER “. Neatwit laughed like a madman standing ontop of mama duck , as the world watched on in confused expressions as an army of ducks annihilated an entire enemy legion while shitting on their heads and pulling their noses.
