Chapter 15: War With Godenal Guild: Part 6
Chapter 15: War With Godenal Guild: Part 6
Although we agreed on making the chat as short as possible, he sent a long message to me. I felt warmth especially because I knew for sure that my next move would be really dangerous. But I was ready for it though.
I didn't intend to let this defender off the hook this easily. I started circling him with my high speed.
He tried his best to keep up with me and even tried more than once to flip himself and move in the opposite direction to surprise me. But these were all futile attempts of him.
Although I was hit more than once by wide-area skills from those nasty magicians and his HP was always in a safe range by the combined help of his skills and those far away healers, I wasn't in any danger as I used one potion to restore my HP.
Although he was also safe, my real aim wasn't him. I used him as a bait to lure all free amateurs in the area around me to finish them off one by one during my attacks on him.
What helped me greatly was my luck value in my stats. Nearly every time my skills caused critical damage and one out of four were AC.
I needed to lay just four subsequent hits to get rid of one player. With my speed, I could do it in just two seconds. When the effect of my potion was almost finished, I moved finally inwardly.
I looked at Shin before leaving. He was still bravely exchanging blow to blow with this swordsman. From my look I expected him to emerge victorious.
Although I was attracting most of the healers' attention over that defender, that crafty strategist managed to rearrange healers' duties so three was focusing on the defender and one on the swordsman.
The last healer was like a joker, he helped whoever needed help. Despite his admirable efforts, I and Shin managed to kite them to only end by 8 players from their original 30.
It seemed that this defender was crazy of me. Once I left heading towards those nasty magicians he followed my footsteps like a stalker.
Those magicians were really hard to deal with, especially if they had a brilliant brain like that strategist. Once my intentions were clear, those magicians fanned out in shape to scatter covering a wider area.
This reminded me of my past self. This move was very effective in small battles, especially with melee enemies.
Now the positions were in reverse. But that didn't mean I didn't own a trick up my sleeve. This tactic worked as it lured those melee attackers by believing falsely that their enemies were retreating from battle.
They would then enter a trap as the flanks of these magicians would close up behind these melees and they would kill them with ease.
To crack this tactic I must prevent them from finishing their sneaking motion behind my back. I had two options, not just one.
I chose the simpler as I had an angry stalker who wanted my head. With just ten meters between me and the center of their fan or trap, I jumped again in great flexibility to the side.
This move was like Shin's evading tactic. My sudden evasion made them surprised, but what shocked them more was when I jumped again to the right.
This time their intelligent strategist figured out my plan, but it was too late. I was near the tip of their right flank arch. How could I let this chance pass by me this easily?
"Start using your full speed."
Our first trump card was Shin faking his speed to be slower than me so I would hit them hard with surprise. The second trump card was Shin's speed itself! I didn't manage to see
Shin who suddenly raised his speed to be able to evade every skill and all the hits that he was always unable to. In his sudden burst, he managed to kill three more defenders decreasing his load by large weight.
The timing of this card was really brilliant as it managed to surprise the strategist for the first time in this battle.
Shin's sudden burst accompanied by my nonstop attacks on the thin arch of the magicians made the strategist stand there in a daze.
Although I wanted so hard to kill this player so badly, I didn't lose my concentration. This strategist still had that sturdy wall by his side.
I remembered Shin info about this magician CC skill. Its range was three meters in diameter. So when I neared the range of his skill I didn't continue forward and moved with my top speed towards their last hope and their biggest regret in the future.
I used my spear freely with stabs to the right and thrushes to the left. It didn't take me longer than ten seconds to deal with these healers.
Now what remained of my enemies was like scattered panicked cats. When I finished my part I didn't move and just stopped. That crazy defender was just at my back screaming in a very angry tone:
"You crazy girl! Who do you think yourself are? I won't rest until I zero you out."
I didn't bother with him and used my flexibility to evade all his skills while saying to Shin in the chat:
"I've finished the second phase. Start the final phase."
I looked then around me in contemplation. That toxic strategist was standing under the protection of this dangerous magician.
Actually I and Shin couldn't find any practical idea to solve him. If we can't solve him then we can't win this war.
That made me return to basics: use the simplest method as it would never cross your enemy's mind. Being there was a great victory for us. The Shin figure approached here with great speed.
Behind him were only three players: one defender and two swordsmen. That meant from the original 50 there were only 6 players only.
When Shin neared my zone, I saw that defender stop his slow attacks on me with obvious frustration. It seemed this strategist feared a lot for his life. I looked him in the eye directly and said in a firm loud tone:
"You must be their commander. I want to tell you a message."
He and the two beside him looked at me. This moment was all I needed. I didn't need to distract them for me, but for Shin.
My timing was perfect, as once they looked at me with attention; Shin bypassed them with his rapid speed. In one second he reached me but didn't stop.
I didn't look at them after that as I turned and ran very fast with Shin. When the 6 players awoke from their daze, they discovered that we were entering through the gate of the village.
It hit him as lightning as their faces turned pale white from realizing their silly mistake. It then turned deep purple from anger.
This war was started for them to kill us but it developed into a challenge from me to them about entering the safe zone of the village.
When I managed to kill all the healers, I was pretty close to the gate of the village. When Shin bypassed them and joined me, our two positions got reversed.
We became near the village gate and they became far from it. Our goal from the start wasn't to kill them all! Our goal was to just enter the village safe zone and now we brilliantly made it there.
We didn't enter directly into the village but stopped just at the forefront of the gate. One step we could take at any time and we would be inside the village.
No one could harm us then. I turned and looked at those 6 players. Their faces explained their crushing defeat perfectly. War was after all about deception and misconception.
These 6 players stood there trying to kill me with their eyes. I didn't like their reaction. Shouldn't they just run away now? Finally, I used my final trump card raising my spear high in the air whispering:
"Dragon Head Skill"
Suddenly my spear glowed in a frightening red color. Its tip transformed to become a dragon head of two meters wide.
It was a very fascinating sight. I kept my spear held high in the air for a second then pointed it towards the space between me and them.
My spear turned to be like a whip which landed heavily on the ground aggressively. Each hit caused a little vibration to the ground accompanied by a thunder-like high pitched sound.
Every hit caused a shallow pit in the ground with a diameter of one meter. It looked like it had a wide range attack too.
This was a pleasant discovery for me. This was really a trump card of mine. In the next second, they began to withdraw going towards the massive ocean of players in speed.
They feared I would really attack them with strong skills. I didn't stop my attacks on the ground to be like I was holding my whip driving those cattle away.
It was very thrilling to the degree that it silenced everyone who watched it. I looked around with pride and raised my spear with the last second of its skill. It was a heroic picture.
A hot female like me holding a dragon head spear! When I looked around I realized that we really had won! We won!
Shin was more experienced by game thrilling moments, so he moved at once and collected the equipment that dropped from those 44 players.
These players weren't just like any normal players we killed before. Those were Elites, not cannon fodders.
Shin took my hand firmly and looked around in pride. He stood there beside me at the village gate mouth, in front of all these players, in front of all the game players who were seeing the live broadcast of this battle.
He didn't say anything but raised his hand which held mine high in the air.
Suddenly a more earth-shattering cheers reverberated through the world, and I felt like I was a general standing in a huge battlefield in front of my army announcing our victory.
Yes, it was our legendary victory that would be carved in the annals of Destiny Game forever.
I began to really love this game.
