89 Defense Of The Turtle (1/2)
The last deafening cries of the Water Elemental Guardian Eels brought attention to the inner guard soldiers of the said realm.
It was also a warning cry to remind them of the terrifying power of the incoming intruders.
”Everyone in position! We have a powerful opponent ahead. I don't have any idea what they did to the Guardians that made them into such horrifying screams. Therefore, we must not underestimate this new enemy!”, a commanding soldier that held a bigger golden spear shouted to his comrades.
Despite their last battle, their morale had been spiking lately especially after seeing the image of their beloved late Great Lord Mahar.
Even though the current Lord of the water realm is unconscious, they still hoped that Dash could wake up on time. Not to mention, there is a powerful human with power strong enough to take down an elemental Lord himself. The only problem is that they have no idea where he left.
Intelligence report stated that the human has gone far to the south in order to escape responsibilities of the damages he had done. Other more pessimistic gossiping creatures claimed that the human had already left the water realm after given a good punishment by the late King Mahar.
While there are also those who are hopeful and optimistic ones that Elric had only gone to rest and will surely come to their aid.
Whichever is the truth, one thing the commander is for sure, and that is they can only count on themselves for this time.
Whether a help will come or not is up to the almighty Fate.
”We must stand our ground and not let this foolish intruder come even a single inch-”
SLAM!
WHAAAM!
SLAASH!
WHAAM!
BAASH!
Just before the commander could finish his words five long distorted images of eastern Dragons charged in their post with a terrifying force.
The guard armies did not even see them coming as the intruding Thagdas used their water camouflage to hide their bodies. Only a faint water distortion could reveal a hint of their presence but with overwhelming speed, they looked as if nothing but a passing current.
”Ughh...”
”My body... I can't feel it.”
”What happened...- aaaghhh!”
Thanks to their golden armors, the guardian armies had managed to survive the forceful charges of the Thagdas, however, the sheer impact force left them stunned and terrified. Right before the guard armies could recover from their state, the Thagdas revealed themselves while munching on their feeble bodies.
CRUNCH!
MUNCH! MUNCH!
Aaaaagkkkkkg!
Like dogs biting their favorite bones, the five Thagdas munched on the disarray soldiers with furious greed.
”This water elemental soldiers taste a bit salty compared to humans.”
