Chapter 327: walking into an ambush (1/2)
Rudra did not expect an ambush from Eternal Rebels , it was a tactical error on his part to think that Edge would tuck his tail and run. Hence when the arrows and magic spells suddenly rained down on the group , for a second he was clueless.
Many of the slaves died , even some of the soldiers got injured. Immediately Karna shouted ” Ambushhh!!! ”. As everyone became on guard.
Rudra was calm now , the initial surprise had waned , he was not the same man he was once when edge snatched the merit toke his hand and he just froze.
After winning against nightmare he had found confidence in himself and his skills , as he was calm and critically started to analyse his position.
They were surrounded by a hill on one side and forest on the other , the road was overall narrow , and places to retreat were non-existent. Truly a great place to lay an ambush.
When Rudra looked back , he saw some people wearing eternal Rebel guild colors , as they dropped boulders at the road where Rudra and group came from , cutting their means to retreat.
Rudra spotted about five thousand enemies on the hill , and two thousand more inside the forest line.
He made an assumption that a total of maybe 10,000 members laid ambush , and thought that maybe 3000 or so would march on the narrow road towards them , engaging in close range conflict.
Rudra gave the call ” Alright guys , it's the rebels camping us , Karna and Neatwit will take the front. PinkLotus you have to guard Medivh at the centre. Tank you are with PoisonToadGamakichi , you take the forest line. Naomi keep the soldiers healed as much as possible. Only use mass heal spells and not individual ones. Conserve mana. I take the hillside. Go!”.
Saying so Rudra used blink , suddenly teleporting at the top of the hill , elven sword and Excalibur at hand , starting to massacre the hillside troops.
Rudra wasted no time as he started with using the world Slash and 10,000 cuts , it was one special move after other , as he used twin blade hurricane, overhead slash , cross Slash , claymore and swift retret in quick succession.
He was a walking slaughter machine , as he alone had a damage output greater than Neatwit and Karna combined , who were also on a terrific slaughter run.
The forest side was performing weak , however with Medivh's support and Naomi keeping the soldiers alive , the situation seemed balance as of yet. However , it was all about to change very soon.
As edge lead a party of 10,000 troops from the front! All clad in level 55 or more fullset Armour , the slaves were quickly slain , and Karna and Neatwit started to be progressively pushed back as they started to loose a chunk of their health.
