Though they could use potions and elixirs, it was just delaying the inevitable. Unlike them, the Andromedas can continuously pressure them without tiring out and the more time passed, the more stronger the Andromedas became.

Of course, the Andromedas weren't actually becoming stronger, it's just the humans slowly running out of stamina. Additionally, the Andromedas were continuously scanning them, their attack patterns and skills, and processing all that data to find the optimal strategy to fight them.

After a while, the Adromedas started adopting the tactic of attacking from the distance and mainly targeted the mages in the backlines providing powerful AOE magic.

"It's a chaos down there. It's too bad, I wanted to show them hell myself but from the looks of it, there won't be many of them surviving after this" Bea said enjoying the show that was going on at the base of the mountain.

Every time a person was injured and blood flowed out she would have an ecstatic expression and her body would wiggle continuously.

Except for Annette, Emma and Bianca who stay composed during all of it, Alice was no different. She would imitate holding guns with her hand continuously and utter pew pew pointing at the humans like a gunslinger.

"Those ones look different, when did you ask the Wisp to build all those?" Irene came near him and asked.

Still sitting atop the warhorse, Simon smiled at her question and asked a question himself.

"So you could tell huh?".

"Hmph, who do you think took care of your dungeon while you were gone? Although I don't know much about these golems that you call Andromeda, I can tell that those ones over there are different than the others" Irene remarked.

"You are right, those ones are Mark Ten and are different than Mark Eleven. Not only are they more stronger, but they are also far more agile and better at combat" Simon explained.

He who was the most knowledgeable about them, knew them inside out. A few days ago when Simon discovered the mountain that was producing all those ores on his main floor, he contacted Wisp and asked him to send a few Andromedas that could mine them.

Additionally, he also ordered it to start manufacturing other versions of Andromeda as soon as the workshop and the assembly line is ready. Though it was a tough order, the Null elemental still managed to exceed his expectation and produce twenty of them in the span of a few days.

If it's the Andromeda Mark Ten, they would be able to handle a person above level 350 and could contend against these people for a while or at least drain them of their energy.

"Huff.. Huff.. their numbers are just too much" one of the mage a powerful one at that said, by now he had taken out a few dozens of these golems and had used up all of his stock of mana recovering potions.

However, the number of Adromedas was just too much and the pressure did not seem to be reducing. He fired one more intermediate-tier gale magic and lowered his staff to take some rest when suddenly his teammate shouted from behind.

"Watch out you fool".

But it was already too late, one of the Andromedas mark ten broke out of the frontlines and used its chainsaw to attack him.

"Dammit… Gale Magic Mastery- Gale Wrath" a huge tunnel of gale was formed capturing the golem inside it before shooting it towards the distance like a cannon.

"Are you alright?" his teammate came towards him but was stunned the next moment. The mage who was just attacked had a huge chainsaw inserted in his stomach from which blood was continuously pouring out.

<strong>THUD…</strong> A few seconds later his body hit the floor and stayed motionless there forever.

With the fall of the mage marking the first casualty, the humans started becoming more frantic and one could even feel their panic from the mountaintop. Even if the Adromedas were not their match, a thousand of them was simply just too much for them to handle given that their formation had already fallen.

It was so impossible that it was straight up bullying. As more time passed and the Andromedas fell, the reserves of potions the humans brought was running out and along with that, their energy too.

Some of them who were not careful enough, died under the combined Blast Missiles from dozens of Andromedas who were spamming their missiles from the distance.

<strong>BOOOM…BOOMM…</strong> no matter where one looked, continuous sounds of explosion echoed out and destruction spread everywhere. The death on the human side continued to skyrocket until there was only twelve of them remaining standing.

These eleven people were far stronger than the ones that died and were on the upper spectrum in terms of levels. Most of them were above level 450 and around the borders of level 500.

"This is stupid, there is no end to them. We are simply exhausting ourselves by fighting them. You all follow me, we are gonna break through the encirclement and dash towards the mountaintop" Morgress said swinging his broadsword and generating a powerful amount of thunder reducing the attacks of the few of the Andromedas into nothing.

Lombus, Thiago, Sable, Kendric and Orson, all of the seven swords excluding Boris, nodded their heads and followed behind Morgress who tried to make a beeline towards the mountain.

On another corner of the battlefield, Bryan was similarly dealing with the Adromedas that came his way, his stats that was centred around his Agility, gave him quite the edge on the Andromedas and his tricky skills came at an angle that was hard to avoid.

The way he fought, seemed like he was more adept in dealing with humanoid beings rather than monsters. [Swift Backstab] appearing behind one of the Andromedas like a shadow, Bryan plunged his sword into the gap between their armors and destroyed their circuits internally before jumping back and avoiding the blast.

"Phew, that makes twenty three of them. But holy moly, there are just way too many of them. Hmm? What are those guys planning?" seeing that the Morgress and his team were making a formation and running towards the mountain top, a mysterious glint appeared in his eyes.

"[Templar Stealth]" reciting his skill, Bryan's body melded with his surroundings and disappeared from the Andromedas range of observation.

It was not only Bryan who found the weakness in the detection ability of the andromedas but also Boris who was an elite assassin bordering around the edges of level 500. He deployed a similar stealth skill and disappeared from the surveillance of the andromedas.

"[Storm Hammer] [Brutal Swing]" Lombus with his wild charge, brandished his huge hammer and pushed back any and all Andromedas trying to block their way with his overbearing skills. He along with Morgress and Kendric would hold the frontlines, Thiago would provide timely aid with his sniping skills, while Sable and Orson provided backup with their magic.

The members of the seven swords were used to working together and knew each other's skills and magic well, thus their coordination was far better than the rag tag team that was put together by the sea god's trident.

Even amidst the pressure of hundreds of andromedas, they were somehow able to reach the mountaintop where Simon and the other were. And the moment they did, the constant barrage from the golems stopped.

CLAP… CLAP… CLAP…

"That was a splendid display of teamwork; I must say you people are quite good" They heard the jubilant voice of the demon that was enjoying their struggle and his mocking applause.

As angry and impulsive Morgress was, he still restrained himself from immediately charging at the other party and took a deep breath of air to calm his heart.

"You have achieved your objective and reached the mountaintop so what comes now? Need I remind you that there are still more than eight hundred Andromedas remaining for you all to fight" Simon snapped his finger and the Andromedas spread around the surroundings immediately flew towards the mountaintop.

Looking at their line-up, one wouldn't be able to help but cower and at the same time marvel at their numbers that made them look just like a wall in the sky.

At Simon's command, they all activated their light blasters, blast missiles and locked on to six humans who already looked quite tired.

Seeing that they were targeted and surrounded by an army of golems, Morgress raised his hands and uttered words that made the teammates around him astonished.

"Wait.. wait… we give up, the numbers on your side are clearly too much, we surrender".

"W-what are you saying guild master? How can we give up just like that when we are this close to the demon?" Lombus shouted, angry and in disbelief that his guild master would decide to give up when they were so close to victory.

From his perspective, as long as they can kill the demon controlling the golems, they would be able to easily achieve the victory in this fight.

It was not only Lombus who was stunned by Morgress's decision to surrender, but all the other seven swords were too. However, when they observed his eyes and behavior, they immediately knew he was planning something and decided to go along with the pretense he was cooking without any question.

Though Lombus with his muscle brains was the only one to not get the clue and behave like an absolute moron.

The Valkyrie sisters looked at the group of humans who suddenly had a change of behavior after reaching the mountaintop and narrowed their pretty eyes suspiciously. It was not only them but even the Lightning draconic Serpent and Bloodthorn Demonic Warhorse had a dubious look on their face.
