Chapter 222 Improvement

Atticus walked forward and stood at the edge of the wall with the rest of the Ravenstein youths directly behind him.

Then he turned his focus towards the rapidly approaching wave of beasts.

Just like the last time, each form of the beast was just as tall as an average-sized dog, but the sight of thousands of them with their blood red eyes, razor sharp canines and claws, plus the sheer size of the approaching horde, would be enough to wet the pants of many, and it wasn't the good kind.

But despite the ferocity of their advance, each of the youths held their weapons tighter, determination etched on all of their faces.

They had been training like hell for 3 weeks for this day now. It wasn't like back then when many of them were trembling at the sight of the same horde.

Back then many of them knew nothing, with most completely being inexperienced and having even never fought any real life battles in their whole lives.

Many of them had been skeptical about Atticus's speech back then, not believe they could become strong.

But after 3 weeks of intense training, even they had to admit it, their improvement was astounding.

And now, none of them had any intention of backing off today. They were going to prove that the past 3 weeks hadn't been futile! nove-lB.In

The earth trembled with intensity as the beasts neared, their black forms charging towards the camp like an uncountable swarm of black ants.

Just as they reached 50 meters away from the youths, no order was given, not even a signal, but immediately they entered that 50 meters mark, the sky was instantly filled with hundreds of projectiles cutting through the air with speed, each one finding their mark on multiple beasts, piercing and impaling their forms in an instant.

As if responding to an unseen cue, they synchronized a powerful stomp with their left legs.

And as though that were a signal, each of the armored youths in the front line suddenly clicked a button like switch on the handles of their shields, and immediately, myriad of small holes, a perfect fit for the sharp tips of spears, opened up at the top of every single one of their massive shields.

And without so much as a word, the dealers surged forward with practiced fluidity.

Every single one of them all erupted with speed, thrusting their spears with unreal rapidity through the different holes that had formed on the shields, each time piercing and killing multiple beasts on the other side of the formation.

There was only one word to describe their actions: efficient.

The efficiency of their actions was nothing short of remarkable.

They were all moving in sync, rapidly piercing their spears and killing a multitude of beasts.

Some of the beasts managed to get over the shield, but they were instantly pierced by a barrage of thrusts.

The dealers joining in the fray and rapidly killing the beasts was able to reduce the heavy load on the armored youths, making holding the line easier.

They swiftly started pushing back the beasts.

"Not bad," Aurora remarked behind Atticus, her gaze on the chaotic battlefield. Although she had always watched them while they were training, this was the first time she would see them in battle.

Watching the unfolding battlefield, Atticus also nodded his head in approval.

If they were to compare the youths currently fighting down below with their past selves when they had just come to the expanse, it was like comparing heaven and earth.

It was truly a major improvement.
