Chapter 359

Chapter 359: Where the hell is Darius?!

Hoffenheim’s appearance had caused many to let out a sigh of relief because even though he was just an Angel, it was better than Lovren going against 2 emperor beasts on his own.

“I just received news that a tier 2 fire Capra has appeared at the northern gate.” Professor Gibson showed Major Briggs live footage of the battle at the northern wall.

The fire Capra was a 15-meter-tall mountain goat that possessed thick black hide and flaming hooves.

Its horn was 16 feet (4.8 meters) long and was glowing red hot due to the constant fire mana passing through it.

At the center of its horns was a back-length flaming hair that was continuously fueled by the mana being fire mana being absorbed by the horns.

Emperor rank Fire Capre were masters of the fire and earth elements and possessed absurd charging power.

“Fucking hell! How are they so many?!” Major Briggs cursed on hearing the bad news.

.....

At this point, there was currently nothing less than 2 emperor beasts at every gate. It made them wonder when emperor beasts became common like cabbage.

“The only person that can solo a tier 2 emperor beasts is Colonel Darius, and he is still fighting the elder Treant.”

“By the time he is done, the northern and most probably the eastern wall would have also fallen. All we can do now is pray for a miracle.” Major Briggs said.

Emperor rank beasts were nothing close to being dumb. Once they breached the Northern wall, they would help out the other beast armies by attacking the humans from both sides.

If 2 walls were to fall there was a 70% chance that they had lost the entire city because almost all of the city’s defense resources were positioned at the walls.

So even if they were to get through one of the walls, the city would suffer a lot of damage.

Best

...

Back at the southern wall.

Red-haired royal knight, Rayzer, was in his golden armor watching Blake’s steam from above.

His previous task had been to watch over Blake, but when they had been sent to the wall at the start of the beast tide, it had changed to protecting Blake and also Luciano.

If someone planned on assassinating them, the chaos caused by the beast attacks was the perfect opportunity to attack them.

‘At this rate, I might have to get involved.’ Rayzer thought when the wall’s barrier had been breached.

The beast army had broken 3 large holes in the lower parts of the wall’s barrier. Once they had gotten through, they swarmed through the hole and formed walls by the sides to make sure the humans didn’t take back control of the position.

That was when the king-rank beasts that had awakened the earth element created multiple ramps that made their way to the top of the wall.

With the beast walls giving a free passage, beasts began rushing up the ramps and climbing the wall as they made their way to the top.

‘The situation is getting worse. At this rate, if nothing is done the southern wall would fall.’ Rayzer thought as he assessed the entire battlefield, but remained unmoving.

That was when he felt a mind-link connection with Prince Bryon.

‘Your Majesty...’ Rayzer knelt with one knee as he awaited the words of the prince.

‘A tier 2 fire Capra has appeared at the northern wall and all of the city’s powerhouses are currently busy. I want you to go take care of it.’ Prince Bryon said.

‘Then what of me protecting his highness and Blake? The wall’s barrier has just been breached and the beasts have already made their way to the top of the wall.’ Rayzer reported the situation of the southern wall.

‘What is the current situation of Darius’ battler with the elder Treant?’ Bryon asked.

‘It would take a little bit more time before he is done. The same goes for the newly advanced angels.’

‘Then the kids should be able to take care of themselves for a short period. If they end up dying before then, then they were not worth it.’ Prince Bryon said.

‘Yes, your Majesty.’

When the mind link had ended, Rayzer took one more look at Blake’s team to make sure they were not in danger, before moving to the northern wall.

...

“Focus on the beasts!” Everyone was ordered to switch their attacks from the insects on the walls to the beasts coming their way. This order would cause more openings in the wall’s barrier, protecting their lives was the most important.

When the announcement had been made, the ash corps teams beside Blake’s team told them to move away from the wall and stay behind. This was to protect them and prevent them from getting taken by surprise.

Just like they had expected, it didn’t take time for the beasts to reach the top of the wall.

“I and Luciano would defend the sides while Castiel uses the elemental cannon and you 2 support us.” Blake said to his team members as he brought out Ebony and Ivory from his dimensional space.

Unfortunately for them, 2 earth ramps had formed close to them. The 1st one was 2 ash corps teams away, while the 2nd was right in front of a mini magic tower beside the ash corps team by the right.

The first set of beasts that came up the ramp instantly rammed into the mini-tower, destroying it and killing the operator before turning to the humans by the side.

2 members from each ash corps team beside them were tasked to kill the beasts that were climbing and flying up the wall, while the other 6 were to defend against those using the ramps.

Thanks to their training, the six ash corps seamlessly worked together using different arrays and spells to form an impenetrable wall, but that was soon coming to an end when a king rank wasp appeared.

“Where the fu*k is colonel Darius?!”
