His intent spread through the entire battlefield of the west wall. Panic and fear stroke the heart of the beasts, and it didn"t take more than a second for them to begin escaping.Clouds of dust rose due to their speeds, and the ground trembled due to their enormous size. The incredible scene encouraged the heart of the soldier; their hand raised toward the sky, and m.u.f.fled roars escaped from under their helmets.
The dull roar rhythmed with the incessant trembling under their legs held for a duration of a few seconds. And as the beast escaped further from their positions, the constant shaking gradually came to a stop.
"c.r.a.p!", cursed Fell before chasing the beast wave. In the distance, he noticed that the part of the beast wave that had attacked the west wall didn"t leave the city"s surroundings.
He left the small army of MechSuit with one last consign before disappearing in the distance. "Gather the troupes and go help in defense of the other walls!"
His figure pierced through s.p.a.ce as he chased the beast wave. The soldier stood in place for a moment, looking at his figure flash in the distance, before they darted away.
Fell noticed the beast wave divide itself in two, one coursed toward the left while the other went in the opposite direction.
"f.u.c.k, where should I go?", he thought with hesitation flashing in his amber-colored eyes. "What the h.e.l.l should I do?!"
"f.u.c.k it, I"ll start with the North!", he decided in a split second before turning to the right. As the beast wave was making its way toward the north wall from the west, and as the wall of the city was circular, it was forced to take a small detour due to Fell that was in their pursuit.
His presence could be sensed by any beast from a mile away. In their twitching nose, his odor couldn"t be any more nauseous due to the many types of blood that had mixed on his cloth — not even talking about the more evolved beasts that could sense the cloud of scattered souls that followed his every step.
Due to him being closer to the wall, he arrived first to the North defenses and was surprised by the horrific scene that appeared in his eyes.
The defenses from the human side were still standing solid, but many marks had appeared on the steep surface of the North wall. A sign that the securities had nearly been breached open a few times.
Thankfully, a quick scan from with his blood perception notified him that no beast had managed to climb it.
Horror flashed on Fell"s face, and he noticed a giant figure standing among the beast wave. A corrupt and depraved blood essence could be clearly seen with his blood perception. Its decadent characteristic was accompanied by a pure sense of strength that pulsed though a burning sun.
"What the h.e.l.l is that creature?", his vision followed his senses, and the monstrosity appeared in front of his sight: long thin legs, the size of a gigantic black pillar. Dozens of purple-colored tentacles, attached near the creature"s mouth, dangled and moved in a creepy manner.
Fell gazed at the spider-shaped creature and couldn"t help but tremble. He had a feeling that if he hadn"t broken through in his soul cultivation, trouble would have arisen if he had faced this creature.
"What a powerful beast…", he a.s.sessed before making his way toward the group of MechSuit fighters who were near the walls.
As he approached the battlefield from a deserted area. He felt a cold sensation appear in the back of his neck, and his movement nearly froze for a split second. "It sensed me from this far!", he thought before rationalizing.
"Not surprising with how much I stank.", he joked before accelerating his speed even more. A wry and self-deprecating smile hangs on his dirty face, and he could be seen bitterly moving his head in a dramatic fashion.
"I feel even dirtier than when I was living in the baby cemetery…", he said with a twitching nose. He had never been the time of an individual to be bothered by dirt or filth, but now he couldn"t start dreaming about taking a shower. But he knew that those were just reverie, and he came back to his senses when looking at the ma.s.s of numerous monstrosity that creped in the distance.
The MechSuit army fought with their utmost power to try and reduce the number of the beast wave. But they found out that their effort was akin to throwing buckets of water on sand. It didn"t take long for results to show, and with every beast, they took down, they could only bitterly swallow the loss of resource lost.
"Reload!"
"Keep them at bay!"
"Next charge in Three-Two-One!", engines roared, and dozens of black colored MechSuit rushed forward.
A yellow colored insignia was marked on the right part of their torso, and it was clear that they were part of the same group or organization. A mechanical screech echoed from their backs, and sharp wings glinted during their flights.
Just as they were going to make contact with the group of beast, they were supposed to stop; their arm moved in a fluid motion, grasped the sharp wings from the handle, and drew the strangely shaped blade.
The group of beasts in front of them roared before they pounced with claws and canine aimed toward the weak spot of the MechSuit"s. The wing-shaped blade pa.s.sed through the flesh of the beast with ease, and the charge successfully ended with a semi-circular aerial maneuver that redirected the flight of the MechSuits.
"Back to the standpoint!", a m.u.f.fled order escaped from the helmet of one of the black colored MechSuit.
One of them was glancing left and right during the road back and noticed a figure approaching in the distance. It was Fell, who was clad in what was left of his black martial attire. Clothes that had since long turned into dirty crimson rags.
