While Woldemir was fighting two of the elite archers who seemed to have decided to fight against him with their bare hands, one Elite Archer grabbed the still functioning bow that the Archer who was stepped on and killed by BlackWind dropped.He grabbed it as he both saw a light from the far(more precisely he saw Eric) and he felt the ground shaking. Of course an effect of the Calidum Lutum Guard caused by his running.
But unlike Eric, the Guard wasn"t far. He long pa.s.sed Eric. But his pitch dark body colour gave him advantages in a dark tunnel.
The archer who already had an arrow pulled against the bow, shot as soon as the Calidum Lutum Guard was in obvious sight.(about twenty foot apart.)
The arrow pierced the Guard"s Skin and the body of the arrow followed and went halfway deep.
But unlike an explosion, an arrow penetrating his skin was no more than a scratch to him.
Well at least that"s what he felt under complete rage. Once the rage disappears, the pain will likely be greater.
But for now, the arrow did obviously not stop the Guard on his feet.
It didn"t stop the Guard at all as a matter a fact.
With his shoulder brought upfront, the Guard ran over the archer like a bull. And after taking several meters to stop his speed, he managed stop in a rather fast time compared to his size, he pulled the arrow out of his left chest without effort and of course without breaking it. And threw it towards the Archer at the brutal speed a ten foot man"s strength has to offer. The arrow thrown, penetrated the back of the archer"s head and made its way through the whole head quickly and surfaced on the front part of the head. Which continued penetrating through the dirt, practically nailing the archer to the ground.
Rather ironic.
The Two other standing Archers, considered elite, witnessing the death of their partner in war made them urine their breechers as the Calidum Lutum guard turned his attention towards them.
As he was approaching, the two remaining archers bend to their knee and begged for them to be spared.
But of course all the guard could see was his co worker who was also his childhood friend, being shot down and killed by these ruthless people.
The guard grabbed both of them by the neck, lifted them above the ground and was witnessing their death on his hands as they were gasping for air.
The more they kicked, the more he tightened his foot long hands around their necks.
A minute pa.s.sed and the two archers weren"t kicking anymore.
The innocent Guard"s death was well avenged, he can rest in peace.
Woldemir watched in slight fear as he saw three ill.u.s.tratio archers being killed by one man.
One Calidum Lutum"s impact in battle seemed almost equally impactful to a Magician(Level three) Fire Witch or Wizard even if the Calidum Lutum individual could not control lava.
Sure a Witch or Wizard can throw life threatening fireb.a.l.l.s who would kill you on the spot or ruin the rest of your life.
But a Calidum Lutum"s skin seems more protective than a set of armour.
Blind spots in a battle of one against ten would hardly harm a Calidum Lutum if used to the enemies advantage. As if they were immune to it.
And let"s not forget the Strength they possess.
If compared, A five hundred pound man"s strength sounds equal to the strength of several ill.u.s.tratio guards of which they would possess.
If Eric could perhaps convince Commander Alia, the few hundred Calidum Lutum the Town of Lan Zhe has to offer could take on and win a battle against the thirty thousand People Kingdom which King Xakro lll rules.
But of course the Gang Knows quite well that the man beast they faced(King Xakro lll) is a Grand Master Fire Wizard.
He seemed immune to Fire. What else could he be immune from?
Underestimating an enemy is the greatest flaw in battle. Expecting less, you would lower your guard which could ultimately lead to your defeat.
And King Xakro lll practically being a more twisted and actually in a few ways more powerful version of Electus himself, underestimating him in battle could lead to the Calidum Lutum race being enslaved or actually extinct this time.
However, getting back to reality. Eric reached the battle field and landed on his feet.
He instantly noticed the total destruction one Man caused.
"Judging from the scene, this situation seems taken care off. But where is that lap Dog Chan?"
Said Eric with fury in his eyes. He to wanted vengeance for the poor soul. As Guard Commander Chan was clearly the one who shot the Guard to death, Eric seeked him.
"Commander Chan was here? I didn"t see him in the tunnel. He must of ordered his archers to stand here as a barricade as that bootlicker made his escape."
Said Woldemir with his voice raising while he was putting two and two together.
"That coward killed a Guard, ripped his heart out and ran.
Lucky for us Alia saved this other guard, then Mogranius saved Alia, then i saved Stefan and then the Grand Masters saved me.
It was like a cycle of saving."
Said Eric with a grateful but also griefed voice.
"That coward couldn"t of made it that far. As soon as i heard whatever caused that explosion, i made my way to the cave.
At first i thought i was hallucinating but the second explosion got me worried."
Explained Woldemir.
"However the case might be, there is no time.
I need to hunt down and ki...
As Eric tried to finish his sentence, he wasn"t able too. He was struck by Mogranius who flew his way above Eric"s head, grabbed him by the shoulders and carried him out of the cave. Which was short lasting, as they met the exit after half a minute of flight.
Eric Blaster Fire out of his feet and started flying himself again.
