Chapter 86: Counteroffensive!

Hearing that their main force was fighting against the thunder wolves was not a good sign and Shane decided to make a short report to clarify everything.

"We called reinforcement and the shelter should be able to hold out. The main issue is that they stalled time while the awakened crystal feathered eagles and the majority of awakened scaled lizards haven't attacked us yet.

There is an extremely intelligent awakened beast among the three races! Survive and come back without too many casualties!!"

Having said everything, the other part disconnected the call, causing Shane to frown, but he wasn't aware of what exactly happened on the other side.

He was about to imagine the worst-case scenario when an Elite-stage crystal feathered eagle dived down towards him only to be shot by one of the Archers next to him.

Thanking him, Shane decided that he had more important things to take care of, as he gave out more instructions, while he assigned a few Expert stage archers and crossbowmen to focus more on the awakened stage beasts with the priority on the crystalized eagles that appeared.

Even though their morale increased by a large margin, some Archers couldn't evade wind blades and crystal feathered eagles severing and tearing them apart, which was a demoralizing sight for the surrounding soldiers.

However, Shane gave his best to hold everyone's morals together while trying to take out the most dangerous threats for the soldiers and citizens at the same time with a few instructions.

Another few minutes passed and he noticed a soldier unit with green leather armors and long spears in their hands rushing towards the northern gate as he perceived the emblem on their chest.

His mood leaped and Shane was immediately overjoyed.

Fortunately, he remembered his current position and he calmed down, while he told the Archers to continue like this and that he would be back in a moment.

Rushing down the stairs, a particular young green-haired young man who looked like he around 20 years old stood out from the crowd and Shane approached him.

"Are you the Cavalry captain? If that's the case, ready yourself. We have to open up the northern gate soon, otherwise, the whole northern wall will fall!" The green-haired young man noticed Shane and was astonished about his behavior when he remembered his superior telling him that a young black-haired man was in charge and that he would immediately know if he was the right one.

Following his superior's order who told him to listen to everything Shane told him, he saluted Shane, before replying "Understood, Sir!" causing the surrounding soldiers to look at their captain in astonishment.

Turning around, the green-haired young men said "Prepare to move out!", while Shane decided to rush towards the close combat unit in order to instruct them what they should take care of first.

Shane noticed that everyone listened to his orders and his prior low profile was completely destroyed, which was rather disappointing but still negligible.

'At least only the RadiantRing shelter and a few soldiers will remember me and my face' Shane tried to console himself.

In the end, it was only fortunate that nobody knew about his real identity, and not even his full name was known by them.

As such everything was still fine.

After he gave out his orders, Shane rushed back the stairs in order to take a look at the current situation, before he waited another 30 seconds until he ordered a bunch of soldiers to open the northern gate.

In front of the gate were already quite some scaled lizards and Shane ordered his archers to take care of them before he sensed a large mass of mana fluctuations behind him.

Suddenly around 300 wind rider horses stood on the shelter's main street, ready to charge out of the shelter once commanded, as the cavalry riders sat on their back with their spears ready.

Once the gate was open, Shane couldn't help but shout out excited "CHARGE!" with mana amplifying his voice, as a unit with three hundred cavalry riders charged out of the gate followed by hundreds of Warriors, Berserkers, Assassins, and all kinds of branch-occupations.

Shane smiled lightly, seeing the scaled lizards being overwhelmed by the sudden opening of the gate, as hundreds of Wild- and Elite-stage beasts were massacred within seconds.

'It's not an Elite unit without reason, huh?' Shane praised in his mind, as he saw ten smaller units separating from each other in order to overwhelm the scaled lizards that threw fireballs, earth spikes, water jets, wind blades, and so on, only for them to see real speed.

Wind rider horses weren't called like this for naught and with their stage being at the peak of the elite stage, they would be able to fight their way through a few scaled lizards by themselves.

However, fighting was not something they were capable of, while a kick was the only thing allowing them to flee from predators.

Rather than that wind rider horses were extremely fast and even faster than most normal awakened stage beasts like scaled lizards.

Only beasts like crystalized eagles would be faster but with the current situation on the ground, Shane noticed that the scaled lizards were completely overwhelmed.

He suddenly saw a lot of crystal feathered- and crystalized eagles appeared outside the radiant-sun magic circle, causing him to frown lightly.

But with the current situation on the ground, he could order all of his Archer's and Crossbowmen to change their focus towards the sky

With the cavalry and the close combat units clearing the ground, the Archers and Crossbowmen could easily take care of the flying beasts, which caused the whole perilous situation to end up in a massacre.

However, what Shane astonished the most was the extremely short amount of time the cavalry required to prepare themselves to enter the RadiantRing shelter.

In his opinion, such a discipline should be common for every unit, as he looked at the cavalry in amazement.

Nodding his head, Shane was sure that the whole situation would be over soon when another bunch of evolved scaled lizards with large horns appeared far away from them.

They were almost as large as trucks and Shane immediately furrowed his brows, wondering if this was the scaled lizards' main force...

'There are still more?!'
