Chapter 1014 Pushing Towards The Tower



"Let me give you a helping hand," William delayed his advance until his friends drew closer from the trench. The moment that happened, he released lots of his arrows, releasing them one by one to make each arrow cross the distance to the walls, land, and explode fiercely over the heads of the forces back there.

His attack came just in time with the arrival of his friends and masters of his guild. When they saw the arrows landing and exploding fiercely, they all got that William saw through their intentions, and he was agreeing with their decision.

"Let's go! The boss is helping us even in such a situation! Don't let us look bad in front of him!" Sara, who acted like the temporary leader of this team and the entire guild in William's and Ibra's absence, shouted to flare the flames of fighting inside all of them.

William watched them build up the bridge as they expected. Even if his grenades helped, there were still many dark masters who attacked them. The deadliest attacks came from the few remaining ballistae scattered all over the walls. And once he spotted these, he aimed his arrows and hit all of them in succession.

Yet the damage these ballistae caused was severe. Many gaps appeared in that bridge, and a few masters fell to their deaths into that trench.

They didn't even put up a single struggle to survive, just fell and vanished, leaving behind a large pool of red blood, one that kept growing fast before slowly vanishing.

"Quite scary! Killing a strong dark gold grade master in a single second! That's insane!" William sighed, knowing that he did everything he could to help them, and they had to depend on themselves from now on to survive and join him.

As they crossed the trench at last, he finally returned to push forward. He knew there were many enemies back there and they'd come and try to kill his friends. But as they decided to join him, they had to fight and do their part.

As for him, he'd take the frontline toll and shoulder most of the deadliest enemies here. As he returned to advance forward, he released tons of his arrows and grenades, either around him or back to help his friends and guild masters.

The moment their feet touched the ground, they were welcomed by a tsunami of fierce enemies. They didn't fret, as they already saw everything from far, and knew what they threw themselves into.

They did just like how William envisioned, fought fiercely back, secured a spot, before moving forward, trying to catch up with him.

They faced strong resistance, but it was nothing compared to what William faced before. And when the latter released his grenades toward their direction, the pressure they faced greatly decreased, and they could finally breathe.

As they started to roll on, they gained momentum. The guild masters had a tacit understanding between themselves, and William's friends knew each other quite well.

So the two worked fine with each other. While William kept pushing forward, they managed to pass through the initial hurdle, then started to pick up the pace.

They started to close in the distance, especially when they finally arrived at the exploding grenade zone. The dark masters tried to fill the gaps to surround and stop him, ending up getting squeezed between him and them. In less than ten minutes the two sides finally met, and William couldn't help but give them an appraisal look.

"You did great this time," he psaised on the decision they took, "but I can't promise it's going to be an easy run."

"We faced worse," Lang laughed, and others nodded while smiling or chuckling, "but... Why are you going all of a sudden towards the heart of them? This is going to end up getting surrounded, any plans here that I missed?"

"See that tower?" William pointed towards a direction that all missed even when they were close to it. They got no blame for that, after all it was well hidden behind the tall hills, "that's our target."

"Seize or destroy?" Sara asked.

"Destroy," William paused, "and we need to do this in the next five minutes at most."

"Let's go then," Ro waved her swords, the same as how Ibra used to do with his glaive, "let's kill those mtherfckers and take that thing down!"

Crossing the remaining distance to the hills didn't take more than two minutes from them. William just released his grenades around, and they did the rest.

As he had such a grand boost to his followers, he shifted and used the old grenades instead. At the same time, he made sure to spread his grenades over a much wider area, increasing the area between the explosive zones to accommodate hundreds walking side by side.

Like this they all marched in one big group, heading towards the hills. The moment they arrived there, Anjie shouted:

"The top of through?"

"The top!" William looked at the tower before adding, "You cover me from up there, stop any incoming enemy and prevent them from taking the high ground."

"You..."

"There is no time for that," he rolled his eyes, stopping anyone from bringing this topic again to the table, "let's go! We have less than three minutes to do it!"

He didn't stand there for a single second, and dashed forward, forcing his way through the enemies using his brute force, his monstrous weapons, and his grenades.

He didn't spare anything to reach the tower. He passed through a wide passage in between the hills, killing anything that stood in his path until he finally arrived at the tower.

"This will be the furthest you'll reach," and before that tower, there was a master clad in black armour, holding a giant scythe in one hand, a big rounded shield in the other, "and this will be the end of your journey and adventure!"

"I beg to differ," William could tell this master was at least at high stage dark gold grade, or even higher.
