Chapter 165: War (5) (1/2)

( The war arena , virtual world )

Rhino and Cola were the leaders of the tankers division inside the game. And they were the only two who were not assigned to any pillars to blow up , their jobs was to hold the enemy , as much as possible.

And it was by no means an easy job at all as currently there were about 20 thousand alliance members swarming the fort , with all 10 archers aldready killed and the archballistae's destroyed.

Although the number seemed massive , realistically with their backs being covered against a wall , there were only about 5-6 enemies that could attack them at any given moment , just that even after killing those 5 or six enemies , other 5 would replace them at a seconds notice , meaning that they needed to face and endless swarm of enemies and hold out for as long as they could.

Rudra was also present as he danced his way through hordes and hordes of enemies , elven sword slicing enemies left and right as if they were made of butter.

He was not overwhelmed by the massive force , as he slowly but surely retreated towards the southern side of the fort , drawing in as many enemies as he could.

3 minutes in , all the tankers were still alive albeit many had aldready taken close to 50% damage in their hp bar. Cola and Rhino , faring a little better at 65% health.

Even Rudra himself found his health chipped a little as he sat on 94% HP , however it dint bother him , as his goal was started to be realized.

In the face of such overwhelming odds , the tanks did not budge a single inch as the elite tankers held their ground strong and proud , defensive skills were used left and right. As their superior armour and shields helped them minimize the damage they took.

4 minutes in , less than 20% of their HP was remaining , but close to 75 thousand had entered the fort , their job was close to completion. However they had not heard the sounds of cannon firing yet , they could not self explode yet , they needed to hold on a bit more!

Beachboy along with his Elite guard finally made it through the wall , as he tried to act heroic as he lead his troops to victory.

He looked at the fort , and found a pitifully low amount of Elites struggling for their lives , he found nothing odd about it as he thought that majority of them had been slayed , this was a good thing as he would have smelled the trap otherwise.

He looked around as he finally found Rudra , and thats where he redirected his guard , towards Rudra.

Even Rudra was at the southernmost wall at this point as he was desperately waiting for SMG's cannon fire before he could use blink and get out of the fort.

He saw Beachboy enter the area and instantly he felt panicked , if beachboy noticed the lack of Elites inside the fort he would understand that something was amiss , however to his delight he seemed clueless.

' Thankgod for stupid people ' Rudra thought as he continued his gruelling fight against the swarm of soldiers.

Pinklotus also entered the fort soon after Beachboy , and started to scan the area ..... She looked at the few Elite tankers desperately struggling , but found it odd that the other assaulters were not visible.

She instantly thought about how the Elites had absolutely superior warriors like Neatwit and Karna , and how they would not fall before the tankers , something was amiss here .

But before she could voice out her concers a loud BOOM ! Was heard .
