Chapter 363

Chapter 363: Not yet over.

With the southern gate being the first to be attacked, it was natural for it to be the first to either fall or repel the beasts.

So with the beast tide officially being over at the southern wall, the 3 powerhouses had to take care of some things at the southern wall before they could support the other gates.

At the center of the wall, Colonel Darius, Major Reeves, and Brock Ulrik had gathered to hear the city’s status report and receive their next orders.

“Ashely, status report.”

“Just like you had predicted, the Northern wall was attacked by a 2nd emperor beasts, but luckily Royal Knight Rayzer came to the rescue.”

“There are currently no problems at the eastern gate thanks to Zirrack supporting them, but things are not looking too good at the western wall.

Principal Lovren is currently in combat with a tier 2 Arachne, and so is Hoffenheim who is at the angel rank.” Ashely’s report made it clear that the western wall needed backup.

.....

Since it was the only the western wall that needed help, Darius was more than enough to handle the problem. So before he left, he gave out tasks to both Major Reeves and Brock.

Major Reeves was in charge of supervising 2 teams. The work of the first was to bring the corpse of all beasts into the city, while the 2nd was in charge of bringing in and preserving the corpse and remains of their fallen comrades.

As for Brock, he was tasked to stay at the southern gate to prevent any form of surprise attacks that might take.

...

In a matter of minutes, Colonel Darius appeared in front of the city barrier at the western wall.

Best

Although the city barrier had been breached, the human army at the western wasn’t in a bad position.

The battle has been raging on for almost 5 hours but even at that, the wall’s barrier hadn’t received any damage. This was because of the presence of the demigod professors.

The only problem the western wall had were the emperor tier beasts outside the city barrier. If they ended up killing Lovren and Hoffenheim, the thousands of beasts they had slain so far didn’t matter.

He ignored the thousands of beasts swarming in through 5 large holes in the city barrier and locked his sight on the battle some distance away.

In a matter of seconds, Darius had appeared in front of the 2 mirror worlds where Lovren and Hoffenheim were battling it out.

“Just like I expected.” Darius said with a smile on his face as he looked into Hoffenheim’s mirror world and saw that he was winning against the Deathworm.

“Shit! Hope I am not too late.” Darius hurriedly dived into Lovren’s mirror world to save him.

“Why didn’t he help out Hoffenheim?!” Major Briggs and Gibson blurted out when they saw Colonel Darius diving into Lovren’s mirror world.

Both Lovren and Hoffenheim were facing emperor beasts of equal ranks. So it was common sense that he saved Hoffenheim who was weaker. They had no idea that the reverse was the case.

“Let’s hope he pulls off whatever he is planning.” Major Briggs said as he continued raining down demigod spells from the top of the wall.

...

After almost 20 minutes, the mirror world collapsed revealing a large hole at the head of the female Arachne corpse, and the unconscious Lovren in Colonel Darius’ hands.

“I guess I came just in time.” Colonel Darius said as he appeared at the center of the western wall where Major Briggs and Professor Gibson were present.

“How is he?” Gibson asked as he rushed toward the pale and unconscious Lovren.

“The Arachne’s poison had already done a lot of damage before I was able to extract most of it. He is still alive, but he would be out for a long time.” Colonel Darius replied as he handed Lovren over to Gibson.

“Time to end these beasts and wrap up this war.”

“What about Hoffenheim?” Major Briggs couldn’t help but ask.

“Don’t worry about him. He will be fine.” Colonel Darius said, causing both of them to stare at him like he was mad.

He didn’t need to explain because the mirror world collapsed and the Deathworm’s large corpse crashed into the ground, drawing the attention of everyone.

That was when a beam of light shot through one of the large holes and landed at the top of the wall.

“That was rough.” Hoffenheim said as he materialized from the ray of light.

“Shit! Lovren is Injured!”

He immediately ran to Lovren and began using light spells to diagnose and treat him for any injuries.

“I will have to take him back to the academy to begin proper treatment.” Hoffenheim said as he opened a spatial gate that led to his office to avoid the questions that were coming.

“What the fuck?!”

Colonel Darius had left to wipe out the army of beasts, but Major Briggs and Gibson were rooted to the spot as both shock and confusion were written all over their faces.

Not only was Hoffenheim still alive, but he look like he just went on a field trip instead of battling a tier 2 emperor rank beast.

“Are my eyes playing tricks on me?”

They couldn’t help but ask because common sense was that Hoffenheim was meant to be the unconscious one while Lovren carried him back to the academy.

“Are you saying Hoffenheim is the strongest in the academy?” Gibson pondered in a confused tone.

They had no idea that Zultra could only beat the Deathworm because he had control over all the elements and was also in possession of peak epic tier artifacts.

“Now clear up the battlefield and be on the lookout for surprise attacks.” Colonel Darius who had returned said to Major Reeves who hadn’t moved from the spot.

“I have to make sure the other areas are okay.” Colonel Darius said as he disappeared from the Western wall.
