The grand army's advance created an imposing sight of an unyielding tide of steel and magic marching forward to confront the malevolent forces of the demons.
As the soldiers neared the portals, the ground beneath them trembled, and the cacophony of demonic chants and roars swelled, saturating the air with a menacing aura that intensified the already eerie and somber atmosphere.
The human ground forces orchestrated their ranks, forging cohesive legions, each endowed with a distinct purpose; shields ascended, spears poised, and swords unsheathed in synchronized harmony.
The formation showed the unity of the diverse legions, standing shoulder to shoulder, ready to die for their cause but more so to slaughter the demonic army.
The archers stood at the ready, bows drawn, prepared to unleash arrows upon their foes, awaiting the command to let them loose, while the mages prepared to unleash the best of their long-range spells.
The tens of flying warships roared into life, humming with a vast amount of mana as the intricate array's runes got activated, making them enter into their battle mods.
Their Mana canons pulsed with a brilliant glow, casting an otherworldly radiance on the surrounding darkness, while their Arcane Ballistae, Elemental Projectors, Apocalypse Spheres, and secondary barriers also came to life.
After reaching only a few hundred meters from the demonic army, the human army came to a halt, their ranks forming into a solid front that stretched as far as the eye could see, outnumbering the demon forces looming in the distance.
The deafening roars and taunts of the demons filled the air, a cacophony of chaos and malice. The tension was palpable, the heavy atmosphere seemingly charged with electricity as the two forces stared each other down, separated by a mere few hundred meters.
ραndαsΝοvεl.cοm The battlefield hushed into a breathless pause, tension was at an all-time high, and the stillness was eerie, as if time held its breath.
On one front, the human army stood steadfast, hearts pulsating, their gazes unwaveringly fixed upon the demon horde, with their confidence growing seeing the smaller number of demons, boosting their spirits and morale.
But soon, doubts began to creep into the minds of every human soldier, seeing the demons standing still, showing no signs of preparing for their expected barrage of attacks or setting up any defensive barriers.
The warriors exchanged puzzled glances, brows furrowing in confusion, uncertainty gnawing at the edges of their determination.
What were the demons doing? Do they have some protection plan? A number of questions hung in the air, unspoken yet shared by all, but no one had any answers.
Even Kerubiel, the grand commander, who stood high above on his mount, gazed down with a furrowed brow, but he didn't linger on that thought for long and a moment later raised his legendry sword high into the air and gave the command to commence the attack.
"For Honor, For Glory, For The Future of Humanity!"
"ARCHERS" Kerubiel roared, and instantly the attack commenced.
A flurry of motion erupted as the archers let loose their strongest attack, a hailstorm of death that blotted out to the sky. The arrows were a spectacle of magic and steel, some gleaming like ice in the gloomy night sky, others igniting like fiery stars, and some splitting into a cascade of wind-borne projectiles.
The sky was painted with this breathtaking display of elemental might, and moments later mesmerizing dance of destruction unfolded as the rain of arrows reached their mark in the distance covering the area in various elemental explosions.
An invisible barrier materializes before the demon army, distorting the air and taking the full brunt of the first attack, and seeing it, many soldiers and players got startled, knowing that the rain of arrows had hundreds of Fifth Rank attacks capable of leveling hundreds of meters in area.
"MAGES" Kerubiel roared once more, and mages rained the invisible barrier with the second volley of attacks.
The mages' onslaught of destructive spells crashed against the invisible barrier that shimmered with magical energy. Fireballs, boulders, and lightning spears all met an unyielding force that absorbed their impact.
Massive Meteors and wind blades were halted mid-air as they struck the barrier, causing energy ripples to cascade across its surface. Beams of elemental power converged upon the barrier, their immense force creating a dazzling display of magical collisions.
The barrier held strong against the onslaught of multiple colossal wind blades, small size suns, grand lightning strikes, meteor showers, and so on, showing no signs of breaking.
The battlefield was transformed symphony of chaos, an awe-inspiring spectacle of unleashed power that painted the sky with brilliant flashes of light and color.
The demon army remained unharmed behind the invisible barrier, roaring and laughing while shouting curses and insults toward the human army.
The ground before the barrier was torn asunder, with craters forming from the impact of the barrage, while smoke and dust billowed into the air, creating a haze that hung over the demons like a shroud.
The contrast between the two sides was stark and surreal as one side was utterly destroyed, while the other side was completely fine with the demon army being untouched by the onslaught.
The tension among the human soldiers grew as they witnessed the barrier's resilience, and even Kerubiel's expression shifted from pure determination to a flicker of concern, a sentiment shared by many.
Kerubiel and every other individual joined the first clash against the demons, knowing death was very much possible, but they wanted their ends to be in glory in a battle and seeing the laughing demons taunting and insulting them didn't sit well with any of these soldiers.
Kerubiel's resolve remained unshaken as he raised his legendary sword high once more, and his voice boomed across the battlefield, carrying a mix of command and Rage.
"WARSHIPS!" Kerubiel's command echoed through the air, and the massive flying warships prepared their mightiest weaponry.
The sky above the battlefield became illuminated by the radiant glow of charged mana canons and elemental projectors as the warships unleashed a devastating barrage of energy, beams of pure elemental power that streaked across the distance with incredible speed.
These beams of destruction made the previous round of attack look lackluster, and as they crashed into the invisible barrier, their impact caused the barrier to ripple and distort out of form like a boulder was thrown into a water pond.
The barrier was deformed as cracks formed on it, putting a smile on every soldier, but their smiles faded as a booming voice echoed, and the barrier returned to normal in mere moments.
"Humans, Your struggle is in vain," A man floated before the barrier, his voice echoing like thunder as he a think killing intent covered the entirety of the human army.
The demon had two sets of pitch-dark eyes a set of goat horns, and his skin was crimson red, and he had massive pitch-dark bat wings while the upper part of his body was humanoid, yet his lower half was that of a goat.
The mere presence of the demon was sickening, and a single glance and every soldier knew that he was leagues above anyone present on the soon-to-be battlefield.
The army was startled by the appearance of the Sixth Rank High Demon, but it did nothing to their resolve as everyone knew that it would require the sacrifice of many, but the demon could be killed.
"Humans, My Name is Wrathahr, and I shall be the one to claim your lives," The demon said with an evil, twisted smile as he spread his arm wide, and a colossal floating structure appeared below him.
The emergence of the war fortress onto the battlefield had an immediate impact on the human army, as those who recognized it for what it was felt dread and even those who didn't know felt fear seeing its colossal form and its malevolent aura.
As fear and confusion spread among the soldiers, Alex remained composed and poised, ready to set his plan into motion.
