Chapter 86: Attacking The Oaks 2
He sat next to DalJeon for a moment to rest and he stood up once again.
-Should we take it easy?
-We can try.
The spirit then smiled and handed him another arrow.
“Lightly…” Jaehw.a.n.g started to shoot without the help of the spirit.
Although Jaehw.a.n.g was very strong on his own, he had no other skills besides being a Gagseog. There were times that he would be unable to do his best just because he couldn’t control his skill properly.
-Is everything going great?
-There’s nothing new so calculating should be easy.
The arrows landed effortlessly as Jaehw.a.n.g’s attacks got faster and faster.
Swoosh… Pong!
A big arrow flew towards him but it hit the wall instead. It was quite strong, he could have gotten injured but it slipped right through him. He then turned his head towards it and stared at it in surprise.
-Isn’t it amazing how that arrow flew over here?
He said to the spirit.
-Thank goodness you dodged it, you could have died…
She sighed.
-Yeah…
He replied. He almost got injured but that was all, it wasn’t all too serious. Nothing could scare him anymore after all that training he received from his father.
-Who launched it?
-Maybe someone like me.
They then looked over to the suspect and saw a long string coming from out of him. There were hundreds of Oaks lined up about one kilometer away from them. It was an Oak wearing a full-faced leather helmet and he aimed his arrow towards the people at Justin point. He shot a few towards Jaehw.a.n.g’s direction and pulled the string once again.
-Since he sent us a present, we should repay him.
-Hey, be nice…
-He seems quite strong, let’s raise the limit.
-Got it.
Pang!
“Unique arrow!” Jaehw.a.n.g launched an arrow in his direction.
Pong!
He screeched as the arrow went into his eyes. The monster then collapsed onto the ground with his helmet overflowing with blood.
+2300
-Hm…
Jaehw.a.n.g was a little surprised. He killed his target and the experience that he got made it look like as if he took down a fourth tier monster.
-He must have thought that because he had a special skill then he could easily protect himself.
The spirit scoffed.
-Haha… It could have been a wild ginseng.
-Ah, thanks for reminding me about food, we should probably step down a eat.
Maybe he had just a handful of experience because of the attack but he was doing a great job. The arrow he was using used a lot of energy and was faster than usual. However, if he learned to control his strength from now then everything would go fine.
“Argh!”
“Careful!”
“s.h.i.+elders! Protect the archers!” The Oak leader shouted as their strongest archer collapsed and screamed in pain.
Teuk!
The Oaks followed his orders and begin to s.h.i.+eld their archer.
“We can’t sacrifice any more soldiers.” One of them shouted.
They tried to gather the oaks who had a knack for archery specifically for this battle but it didn’t go as well as they expected it to be. There were just a few of them and they weren’t even as skilled as the humans that they wanted to beat.
Swoosh… Pong…
“Argh!”
“No!”
Another arrow flew through the air and hit their archer. The s.h.i.+elds were useless. It didn’t look so powerful but they were still incredibly anxious. Though the arrows took out most of them. It looked like it was pa.s.sing through their s.h.i.+elds and going directly at them.
“Focus on attacking!”
Teuk teuk teuk!
They tried even harder to protect themselves and others as they couldn’t risk any more sacrifices. They then followed the leader’s orders and focused on attacking.
“Argh… That stupid human archer…” He mumbled to himself as he watched the human on the rooftop. He made that empty building look like a watchtower.
“That stupid human! Kill him.” One of the Oaks said as he watched Jaehw.a.n.g shoot his arrows.
The severe human invasion had gone on for 20 years. The Oaks had been suffering from their arrows since then. They had to find a safe place to survive and live quietly.
Because of the human’s wide range of powerful weapons, they were unable to fight back and so the Oaks began to revalue archery on their side as well. They thought that they won’t have an edge in battle if they didn’t develop that skill just humans.
Although they didn’t have any devoted young talented archers, they began to train many of them and they all gathered together to join their campaign.
The Oaks soon continued to practice it and they soon established an entire unit of archers. It was all worth it. The cavalry and the infantry troops were their most capable soldiers and the presence of their archers made them stronger.
They got the archery arrows and bows that humans had used and practiced. All of their hard work had seemed to be paying off during that battle but…
“Get ready for the attack!:
Deudeudeuk!
They saw Jaehw.a.n.g launch an arrow.
“Look out!” One of his loyal soldiers jumped in front of him to block the shot and luckily, the arrows pa.s.sed right by him.
‘Wow… That was fast!’
The arrows looked slow at first glance, they practiced a lot so they could avoid them and that’s how they survived so far. Although it was easy for some of them, they could still make a mistake.
Swooshh! Pong!
One of the Oaks bravely took the shot that opened a huge hole in his stomach.
“Ah!” He screamed in pain.
Did he scream because he had managed to save his king? No, he screamed because he felt the metal digging right through him.
Teuk teuk teuk.. Pong pong pong!
One of the monsters who covered himself in leather got shot down. Blood was splattered all over the ground.
“This is a little intense…” One of the monsters said as he witnessed how their battle turned out. It turned out to be worse than what they expected.
“Uh…” The one who was shouting ‘fire!’ before was left speechless. He could barely hold his breath when he looked down at his soldier who got shot down. Blood was all over him but he did his best to stay alive.
“I…” He was having trouble speaking with an arrow sticking out of him.
“Argh…” One of the soldiers kneeled beside him once he noticed that he was struggling to make even the faintest sound.
“Leader!” One of them shouted as he noticed his presence.
“Sir!” The dying soldier yelled and the last thing that he saw was another arrow flying towards him.
+6,754
-Oh… Of course, those big strong ones must have lots of experience.
-Yeah.
The spirit replied to Jaehw.a.n.g as he continued to make his arrows rain.
The Oaks archers looked strong because they packed a lot of muscles. He then asked the spirit for unique, exploding and strong arrows. He wasn’t just aiming for their leader, he was aiming for their strongest shoulders. He was looking for the monster that could potentially deal a lot of damage.
-You can do it!
The spirit shouted.
-Thanks!
‘M-monster…’
DalJeon said as he stared at Jaehw.a.n.g. He had launched many arrows at the speed of light but what surprised him more was his light movements. He lightly and easily avoided the shots coming from the enemy as he continuously returned the favor for their attacks.
Pong pong pong pong pong!
He was shooting arrows like a canon. It was a loud sound that the entire neighborhood could hear.
DalJeon saw an arrow coming towards Jaehw.a.n.g and shouted, “Look out!”
“Huh?”
Pong…
“Ahgh…” The impact left a small crack on the helmet of his cover suit. He could have gotten shot in the head if it weren’t for that.
“Be careful.”
“Got it,” Jaehw.a.n.g replied.
Jaehw.a.n.g was keeping him safe. He was still scared but DalJeon stood up and said, “A-amazing…”
He had a mix of dirt and water on the palms. The place where Jaehw.a.n.g’s arrows had landed looked like h.e.l.l. The Oaks had a safe location to hide but Jaehw.a.n.g’s exploding arrows reached them.
“I didn’t know that there were people like him here in Justin point,” He mumbled. It was still flooded with Oaks but the beauty of Justin point was not gone. If they keep up their efforts then it would be sure that they would win.
“Huh?” A cloud of dust soon started to appear at the end of the horizon. There can’t see much since it was too big. Jaehw.a.n.g then asked, “What’s going on?”
They saw the military bus. Actually, there were twenty military buses driving at full speed and they ran all over the Oaks blocking their path. If they had received news of the attack later than that, they wouldn’t have found the way. DalJeon was then surprised but not because of that.
“Why are they coming this way?” Jaehw.a.n.g asked.
They were supposed to be on their way through a safe gate to escape but it looked like they decided to return to Justin point in the middle of the fight. DalJeon had no idea on what was going on. If the gate was blocked then they could have told them through the radio.
“Could the gate have already been closed?” DalJeon asked himself. That was so fast. Although the gates had been closed, it had a great defense that could rival Justin point. It had been protected for so many years but reality broke more than their expectations. “Those idiots, they should have just went to hide.”
The Oaks were still crawling around the place but the gate wasn’t a simple position that they could just abandon. It was dangerous but they couldn’t just run and hide.
DalJeon then realized their reason and regretted calling them ‘idiots’.
But he wasn’t the only one with regrets, everyone in Justin point fighting against them then realized they had made a big mistake.
Attacking The Oaks 2, The End.
