Rudra had to make a bold choice , the shockwave heading towards his way was having tier 4 strength, usually he could trust his elders to handle this kind of power however with them kneeling on the floor when the violent earthquake started , many were not yet in position to counter the shockwave which is why Rudra needed to go out of his way to block it.
Rudra condensed gravity so much that the air particles infront of him became an invisible solid as he created a ma.s.sive barrier infront of the elite legion and braced for impact.
For a few short breaths , there was a constant antic.i.p.ation as to when the barrier would be pushed back , and soon the shockwave hit Rudra with all its force.
PHA!
Rudra felt his shoulders pushed back to the edge of his sockets as the wind was Knocked out of his chest in his attempt to stop such a large incoming force.
In and of itself , resisting winds of 35-40 miles per hour was possible , however while holding a parachute the same task was much more difficult due to air drag.
Which was the same issue Rudra was facing as while the shockwave itself only had tier 4 strength the pushback from covering such a large area was enormous for Rudra and hence strained his body to the extreme.
Rudra grit his teeth and exhaled while shouting with all his might as he used both his legs and his wings to provide him with the required strength to block the shockwave completely.
Rudra was pushed back a full 25 meters with his feet firmly buried into the ground below upto his knees , however after being pushed back so far he found Karna and Jhonny both supporting him in blocking the attack as soon the others joined in too and the elite legion managed to block the attack unscathed.
" Good one boss " karna said panting as he looked at Lucifer"s visage in the air with reverence and fear.
It had not even been the first hour into the war and already the fight was completely dominated by the G.o.d"s and at a scale where weaklings like them just being on the battlefield turned out to be a ma.s.sive liability.
Rudra popped one of his dislocated shoulders back into the socket as he m.u.f.fled a scream.
Drinking a HP potion he started to rotate his arms to heal from all the damage and was quickly back to his top form.
Scanning the battlefield he saw that Hades had blocked the shockwave for the second legion , while Omar had done the same for the third legion , however the fourth and fifth legion were in complete dissarray with atleast a million casualties within their ranks.
" Dammit ". Rudra cursed , as he impatiently waited for Hades to give the orders to charge , however the G.o.d of death was a veteran and someone who liked to approach war with a clear head.
Marching the army at this moment was akin to sending a legion to their deaths as with Lucifer Manning the fallen wall himself , it was impossible for the army to advance without facing his wrath.
Hades needed to find a way to bind Lucifer first and distract him from active battle before he could send the rest of the army up.
To do so either he or Omar needed to advance , however with so many tier 4 and 5 commanders backing Lucifer , getting his attention would not be easy.
This was an unnecessary stalemate created due to the fact that the G.o.ds had not engaged with each other in battle , meaning both sides were still free to deal astronomical damage to the small fry forces of either side.
However if there was one man who understood war and strategies even better than lord Hades it was the first commander of his army , the guildmaster of the true elites , Shakuni Won Knight!
Brash , undeterred and unrestricted, shakuni flew at a speed 4 times the speed of sound towards Lucifer as he charged on the devil alone.
His grey wings extended , his black aura erupting , and the grim reaper in his right hand and the divine blade Excalibur in his left , he looked like a black comet with wings as he approached Lucifer with a hypersonic sound around him.
" Idiot ". Lucifer said with a devilish smile as he prepared to kill Rudra for once and for all with his next attack , however naturally the leader of the elites was not foolish enough to charge at the devil without a plan.

( Meanwhile on the forums )
The war so far has completely blown the minds of all individuals around the world , and the viewers.h.i.+p numbers had already broken Through an unbelievable 2.7 billion and was still climbing fast.
Apparently everyone , irrespective of their faction or interest in Omega had taken a day off to witness this historic event , as many humans within the army of death livestreamed the fight after partnering up with media channels .
The power of the G.o.d"s had left everyone speechless , most felt like frogs living at the bottom of a well , as they had no idea of the destructive potential a tier 6 being could unleash on the world.
Many were convinced that if Hades ever tried to become the overlord of middle earth it would take him 3-6 months to conquer the entire world and n.o.body could stop him.
However when Rudra finally shot out towards Lucifer , it was at this moment that everyone forget to collectively breathe for a second as they saw the devil prepare his a spell for the end of the leader of the elites.
Would he survive?
