Chapter 3169 Charge
RIP! PUCH!
I took the injury before piercing my sword into the chest of the Crowman, which came from above.
A second later, it had disappeared, and I immediately moved to another Grimm. There is not a second to waste; since the call for the last charge, the s.h.i.+t had hit the fan.
Not only on the ground, but also above.
There are several attacks have come down from above. Killing many people, I had been lucky to survive such a stray attack, but many didn"t, with no fault of their own.
It had been an hour since the last charge and more people have died than four hours before then.
All these people are strong, but they are dying every second. It had become less of a battle to conquer the gate than of survival.
For me, it had become a battle for survival. With both sides using everything, they have to kill the other.
The b.a.s.t.a.r.ds are responding aggressively. Especially in the past half an hour, as their numbers begin to decrease rapidly, that now there are more natives than the Grimms.
I truly had not expected this would happen.
With the difference in number and unexperienced in fighting the Grimms. I thought we would need to charge madly at the gate. Those who are lucky will survive, while those unlucky will die at the hands of the Grimms.
Seeing our edge increase by the minutes, the Grimms are fighting like mad, but it will not help them.
It had become irreversible. Within an hour, we will kill enough of them that the gate would be in our control. Even the dumbest seemed to understand that, as they are matching the Grimms" fury with their own.
I am fighting more calmy than my peers, but my killing rate is not slow.
I am killing them one after another, preferring the ones with bloodlines, despite the great risks of fighting them.
The rewards are just as great. I am harvesting a large number of resources, with the help of growth energy. If I survive, then these resources are going to help tremendously.
So, it might be a risk, but it is the one I am willing to take.
Slas.h.!.+
"Die!" I shouted as Bullman slashed it across its leg. It is a harmless wound, but I cut it to annoy it. The more annoying it gets, the sooner it will make a mistake, and one and half minutes later, it did, and I exploited it.
An hour pa.s.sed, and a drastic change occurred on the battlefield. Much bigger than I had expected.
We have a surrounded by the Grimms in a circular formation and now, like a noose, we are tightening slowly.
It is the first time the natives have used any strategy. It is Grimms" fault, even a decreasing number. They have been too confident in their abilities, and thus give us the chance to envelop them.
The leaders above were directing it all, and we were just following the orders.
eαglesnᴏνel "Strengthen the southern flank. We will let none of these b.a.s.t.a.r.ds escape," said the voice telekinetically, and a few seconds later, a more native appeared on the southern side.
I am on the southern side, the most dangerous one, and I have come here intentionally.
It is also the best place as those who want to escape come to this side since there are more natives than the Grimms. I get a hand in killing them, which is a huge incentive for me.
Slas.h.!.+
"Now," said the blue-horned woman as she gave the gruesome injury to the Grimms. I, who was ready, immediately appeared behind it and finished with the killing blow, and a moment later, it had disappeared.
It had left behind storages and artifacts, which the blue-horned women quickly collected.
When it comes to bloodline Grimms; I take the body while the rest go to those who helped me. It might seem like a bad deal considering the storage of Grimms contains a ma.s.sive number of things.
It is a better choice to take the storage since the strengthening energy is useless to me and the storage has far more resources than I could grow with the growth energy it provides.
It might have more resources and something more, but the bloodline essence is more important to me.
It will strengthen Nero and Ashlyn, but also the seedling of the world tree, which produces the growth energy. Those resources produced through it couldn"t be found even in the stores.
I need those resources, not only for the breakthrough but also for the many treatments I am going to have. They have become even more important now, with the things I was able to find out.
"RETREAT!"
I was fighting when the loud command of retreat rang out from above. The Grimms had been waiting for that and the moment they received the command; they came at us.
We parted.
We might have a number more than Grimm"s, but numbers are spread, and we tried to spot these b.a.s.t.a.r.ds directly. It will give be us getting trampled by their feet, not them getting killed.
Though that does not mean we will not attack. We will attack and kill these b.a.s.t.a.r.ds.
BANG BOOM CLANG…
We created the gap before started attacking them with everything we have. The humans from the other side rapidly gathered around us, attacking the Grimms even with greater intensity.
The attacks are ferocious and the Grimms are only focused on running away while defending against the attacks.
Countering would be a death sentence with the sheer number of attacks we are launching at them. If they stop to counter, they will be targeted with tens of attacks in an instant and even the most powerful ones wouldn"t be able to survive it.
As we also have quite a powerful people and I do not want to go against them. Even for a single attack.
"Chase and kill as many as you can!"
Came the command as all the Grimms came out of the circle. Immediately, we followed the Grimms, attacking them with everything we have.
I, like, always moved toward the Grimms with bloodlines. Going after those, we are injured, as those are the easiest to kill.
"f.u.c.k off!"
The Grimms screamed and attacked me and I moved my sword to defend against them.
CLANNG!
I defended the attack while it continued to run when its expression changed as the powerful attack came from the panther beast women appeared in front of it and launched the powerful attack.
CLANNNNG!
It defended it barely, but the very next moment, it widened as my sword pierced into its chest.
It disappeared inside me a second later and I moved toward the different prey. I want to get as much as Grimms as possible, not just to harvest them, but to also save the souls.
If they survive, they will create trouble else. The more they die, the better it will be for us.
Thousands of Grimms ran toward the forest, while we chased them. Killing hundreds by the minute, using everything we have.
We only have a few minutes. Once they entered inside the forest, we will have to stop.
We did not get that command yet, but it is a simple common sense.
