Like a swift wind, Riya passed by Max and her swift hands took the axe at the back of Max dealing with the barrage of enemies, she appeared quite close to Alex and threw the axe.
Alex caught the axe and a tyrannical pressure emanated from him as soon as he touched it.
Lightening started to crackle from Alex's body like a venomous snake wanting to devour its food.
The sky started to rumble and spewed out lightning one after another which condensed and fell on Alex as he jumped up towards the sky.
The lightning struck him and illuminated the entire region while blinding the vision of everyone on the ground.
He slashed with his axe and crashed on the ground like a meteor which was followed by a huge sonic. explosion.
BOOM!
By the time Meller and the other nobles appeared, they were horrified to witness the scene of an explosion occurring one after another.
"Did we arrive at the wrong defence line?"
The nobles had the same thought as they heard the Second Defense was on the verge of collapse but the scene relaying before them was quite different.
Instead of Arkham soldiers, it was the Kinley's force that was slaughtering Arkham.
A massacre was going on which was headed by two people who seemed to lay everything to waste.
The nobles shuddered to see the scene. All of them were mesmerised by Riya's beauty and tried to hit on her during the training camp they were shooed away by Alex's men.
These nobles weren't aware of the recent affair and since they were from the far west, they didn't actively seek news of the events happening at the centre.
They all thought of her as a pretty flower and Alex's maid who had accompanied him to serve him but seeing the scene of the woman drenched in blood and chopping humans like meat without baiting an eye almost made them fall on their knees.
If they were successful in getting close to her and spouted those shits, only God knows what disaster might have struck them.
Unlike, Riya who was silently murdering her enemies, a man seemed to be dominating the battlefield with an overwhelming force that didn't allow anyone to fight back.
At that time huge shockwaves echoed which swept away the dust and debris creating strong gales which even shocked them to the core.
Craters started to appear on the ground which was getting filled with the blood of the enemies.
Meller's eyes locked on Alex. His presence was standing out even in this situation.
'So this is the power of Alex.'
'An absolute monster who seemed to be defying common sense. How did such a person manage to remain hidden till now?'
He had seen warriors fight before and each one of them was on another level but nothing came close to this man.
Meller was the one who returned to his senses first and shouted"Stop wasting time and engage immediately."
"Help them and do not let those bastards from Arkham run away. Follow Sir Alex's example and slaughter them."
With the help of the reinforcements brought by nobles, a new life seemed to be added to the battlefield and things started to sort out easily.
Some manage to sneak out from Alex's bombardment but Alex didn't pursue them.
With the fear of annihilation engulfing them, some abandoned their colleagues and ran away.
Alex let some of them go as these people need to be alive to spread the tale. If no one survived, who would spread his myth and the horrifying scene that had happened here?
And there was also no way for him to kill so many enemies and he was also getting tired.
And when the battle finally ended, Alex asked Max about the casualties.
From his hundred men, there were no casualties.
It was a fierce battle and no one died from his side. Still, it didn't mean everyone was safe.
From the initial 20,000 stationed here, 11000 were already dead by the time Alex arrived and 2600 died later. The initial troops of Kinley that were stationed here were nothing but cannon fodder.
Even though they were informed about the disaster and fall of the first defences line before, due to the worthless Commander, they perished.
The reserve unit that followed him also suffered some casualties.
It was a fierce battle.No one died from Alex's side but that didn't mean, all of them were safe. Each one of them had serious wounds.
Their bodies were soaked with the blood of the enemies along with the wounds that were gashed open.
"Due to all your support and hard work. We have won the battle. Now use the potions we have brought to heal yourself."
"Yes, Your Highness."
They gave Alex a salute and went back.
The other soldiers along with Barack were shocked.
'He is giving potions to his soldiers for free while the commander hardly gets one or two.'
Barack begins to admire Alex.
Alex certainly had many strong points because of which many followed him. The trust between him and his soldiers seemed to be like a bond formed by blood.
Alex suddenly turned towards Barack and said"Start preparing for the second wave. Gather everyone and start taking care of rations and other things."
"Will you go to another front?" Barack asked.
"I don't know, it depends on the situation. The war is happening on many fronts. While we are taking a moment of rest soldiers are dying at other defence lines."
Alex clapped his hand and shouted, "Bring that bastard traitor."
The soldier dragged a man wrapped in a chain and threw him towards Alex.
"You dirty peasants. You dare to touch me." Count Macon screamed at the top of his lungs.
Alex gave him a cold glance which made him shudder.
"The only reason you are alive is that back then because I found it a waste of time to kill you."
"Bring out the communication stone," Alex ordered.
Every commander of the Defense line has two communicating crystals.
One relay the message to the General of the front and the other to the centre.
Since the enemies had been taken care of and the mana jammer crystal which is put on the flare had been broken, they could communicate with the centre.
The soldier took out two sets of stones from his pocket and gave them to Alex.
"You are going to talk now. Good, good.."
"You will be punished for imprisoning me."
"Hahaha!"
Swish!
Macon's laughter didn't last long as his head was cut off by Alex.
"Annoying!"
After killing the commander of the defence line as if he was nothing. Alex used the crystal which would connect him to the centre.
He didn't want to beat his brain and argue with Shen who might start pissing him off.
Buzz...Buzz.
A blue light illuminated before Alex and a small screen appeared.
As soon as the call connected, Alex's expression turned ugly as he saw a big fat round bastard sitting on the chair while yawning heavily.
"Hush!"
"Say, for what did you call me?"
"Huh...Alex?What are you doing in the Second defence line?"
"....."
