Extra's Path To Demon King-Chapter 190: Defending The Fortress [2]

"Let the battle begin."

The moment these words were announced, Jaden Redmar glanced towards his division leaders and ordered each telepathically,

[First division Attack with everything you have.]

[The second division starts the siege machines and fires the siege arrows at the enemy fortress gate]

[Third Division, prepare all your long-range spells and attack their shock troops the moment both armies clash.]

[Understood x3]

His orders were replied by three understanding statements of the three division leaders from the side of his section.

100 Seekers of the 1st division of Section-C rushed towards the bridge in coordinated and practiced movement, it was the march of a well-organized army, each holding a shield at the front, like the warriors of Sparta, unafraid even in the face of their death.

Each of the steps from 100 powerful Seekers moving at once shook the ground slightly, but unlike traditional soldiers, they were not wearing armor, but their matching clothes were able to manage that part, so they indeed looked like they were part of the same army. Each section had its own uniquely designed attires after all.

Another thing common between them all was the shield they were holding, like a trained soldier with no faltering or excess movement. It can be understood just from that, how well they must have practiced, because it was much more difficult practically than how easy it looked.

The moment Seekers of the 1st division of Section-C started to walk onto the bridge, it began to hang low, and the sound of ropes stretching could be heard, but without fear, they continued walking at a fast pace, no matter how unstable the bridge seemed.

Right behind them followed 100 sharpshooters of the 3rd division of the Section-C. They also moved with practice precision; most of them were magic branch specialists, good at long-range attack through magic. They were chanting and preparing for their special long-range attacks at the very moment of the clash.

The bridge hung down even low, at the weight of 200 Seekers walking on it at once, As the first division of the Section-C came closer and closer to the other end of the bridge, the view of the fortress became larger as well, they spotted the first division of Section-G, surrounding the mouth of the bridge, ready to lunge at them just like the hungry creatures of the waters, which were jumping up constantly sensing so many live energy sources pass through the bridge at once.

The evaluators intentionally put those kinds of aggressive and dangerous types of water creatures there. The sight of the powerful sea creatures jumping like that itself was disturbing enough that it could easily break their coordinated movements, but it did not break the concentration of any Seekers on the first or second division coming from Section-C as they continued to march forward in their organized manner.

Heinz saw the enemy, the 1st and 3rd divisions crossing the halfway mark of the bridge. He banged the sword on his shield, and with that signal, everyone readied and adopted the perfect posture for defense and attack. Their shields were held in a way that covered their chest area almost up to the shoulders, and their swords or spears pointed towards the front from the sides. Everyone was ready to clash with their all, the moment the 1st division of the opposition reached them, that is.

Sophia who was gazing down from above with a cold and calculating gaze, waited quietly, the tension in the air became palpable, the only sounds that could be heard were the sounds of the 200 enemy Seekers marching through the bridge, the stretching of the hanging bridges fibers, and the sounds of growling and hungry noises of the sea creatures jumping up high from the water constantly.

She ordered through the telepathic bands, each message sent to the right person intuitively just from her thoughts themselves.

[Prepare to fire the arrows.]

[Be ready to intercept the siege arrows fired at the gate]

[1st division defends at the first attack and retaliates in full force]

Vyra commanded everyone in her division, "Be ready to fire the arrows at my signal."

All the archers were ready, holding the large crossbows, aiming at the 3rd division of the enemy army. Ready to rain down arrows at a moment’s notice.

Thorian heard the message of their commander and relayed it to Lumina, who was in charge of the small team made up of long-range attack specialists, a team capable of intercepting the siege arrows. [Princess Lumina, would you kindly?]

She received the message and nodded, along with herself a total of 20 mage branch specialists were standing right on top of a sunset like marble platform which was on top of the steel gate of the marble fortress, they could have also been situated on the ground, but that would make them prey to the ground battles, as such they opted for an out of the box approach like this. She relayed it to her team members,

"Okay, everyone, let’s do this right."

As for Heinz, he simply grinned, hearing the message of the Valkyrie, because of the warlord aspect, his blood trembled in excitement and expectation. Mana flowed from his Nexus core, and a violent battle aura or war aura surrounded his body and increased his strength tremendously. Notifications from Prime Nexus flashed through his eyes, but they did not distract his attention from the main focus point of the impending battle.
