Chapter 536: Battle (1/2)

Sam stood at the vanguard of the normal soldiers. He was stationed here along with Arman.

He and along with these few hundred soldiers has to 'test' the strength of the blood mutants.

Sam couldn't help but feel amused at this.

At this moment, Yodha came to him and said.'

”I tried my best, but they don't take this seriously, they still held blind hope that the special divisions can change the outcome of the war. I am a bit afraid.”

”Don't worry, the special division might not be able to beat them, but they can still escape if they want to. Maybe they will retreat and regroup in the camp. I hope the formation of the camp is strong enough to hold for a few days.”

There are only a few minutes till the war started and Sam is on the forefront of the battlefield. As soon as there was any movement from the blood mutants they have to attack. If there is no movement, they have to wait until the superiors give them a signal.”

Sam could see the camp of the blood mutants from far away.

After speaking to Yodha for a moment, he sent him away and looked at the situation calmly. After a few minutes, the blood mutants finally made their move.

But they are not barging in by running, instead, they are in a rectangular grid-like formation as they marched forward in unison.

The commander gave the signal at the moment and Sam charged along with the troops towards the slowly marching mutants.

There are more than a thousand people attacking the five hundred mutants. This is essentially the entire Nascent battalion and all they are using them is to test them.

As the two sides clashed, the blood mutants still didn't move away from their formations. They are marching just like they previously did, it is just that they started attacking the soldiers from their position without any large movements.

They threw all kinds of ranged attacks. The wind type, the water type, the earth, the fire. But all of them are in the blood-red color. Even when they used the earthen attacks that used the ground below, the blood-red pattern appeared on the rocks.

The attacks are extremely powerful and many soldiers fell just after the first wave, they couldn't take the intensity of the attacks and many of them suffered a one-hit kill.

The rest were able to barely defend and most of them did so by dodging.

The formation of the mutants is as solid as it was when they started the march.

Even though the numbers are high on this site, they are still being pushed back.

In fact, the wave of soldiers couldn't even meet the rear lines.

The formation stayed like that until Sam and Arman joined the fray.

At first, they didn't attack at all and only defended. But the situation changed when a person who is at the last line of the formation saw him and yelled.

”He is our target kill him.”

Sam looked at him and noticed that he is one of the thirty people who came along with the master, he seems to be the one in charge of these people.

He also noticed that there are a few more people from that thirty within the formation and they also looked at him at the same time.

All of a sudden, the mutants all only have one thing in their minds and that is to kill Sam.

As for the rest of the soldiers, they are just fodder in front of them.

Sam and Arman already jumped into the middle of the formation and all the mutants are charging towards him, but most of them are held up by the soldiers. Even though the soldiers are weak, they are not weak to the point that they would collectively die in a single move.

The people who could die like that are actually dead. The people who are standing now can barely take it, but even then, they don't have any chance that they could kill the mutant.

But still, they are trying desperately.

This at least gave Sam and Arman some time so they can fight it out and the mutants wouldn't have time to gang up on him by too much.
