Chapter 677 (1/2)

Book 6, Chapter 69 – The Migration

Soldiers were shocked at the gall of the Green Alliance!

They had chosen overt aggression – so the wastelanders hadn't done in the three years following their defeat at Sanctuary An alararrison rushed out to meet the enemy

After martial laas imposed Southaven had been fortified with thirty thousand standard troops, in addition to tens of thousands of security personnel When they heard the inflaether quickly and prepared to attack

“Wasteland dogs! They're spreading lies to deceive people!”

“The Gods would never abandon us! Skycloud would never do what they say!”

“A couple days, then everything will go back to norht these infidels together!”

Elysian soldiers were trained to respond quickly They ordered residents back into their homes and told them to lock their doors Sector by sector they locked down the city

Boo the city under control, attacks fell across different districts Mighty blasts followed a keen tearing sound – nothing like the old weapons wastelanders typical used These sounded ht in the blast radius and hardly knehat hit theht struck in the middle of half a dozen troops When it detonated they were flung away as though h the walls of nearby structures Their captain stared in open horror What sort of weapon was this?! Hoas it so strong?

A contingent of Green Alliance soldiers ca down the street They bore crude black rifles which spat beale shot could blow right through a building Concentrated fire could bring the whole thing down The power behind these weapons far outstripped any ar ordinance the Elysians had ever encountered

Even , these eboncrys rifles were autoainst them

Thousands of Greenland invaders ared down the street They broke through the Elysians' defensive like it wasn't there Between their neeapons and upgraded ar tanks Skycloud crossboere useless

Logic dictated that if long-range was intractable, then

This was the first brigade of Greenland Regulars They were e and steroids, which turned theer than ordinary huility to match In close combat one soldier orth three Elysians

“Surround them! Quick!”

The Elysians quickly discovered they were facing Greenland's crack troops If they didn't match the likes of the Talons of God, they were at least a Greenland's elite Faced with these odds, the best tactic was to try and surround them and attack from all sides Demonhunters or advanced weapons could then mow them down

But as the Elysian soldiers positioned to encircle their enemies, wasteland airshi+ps appeared overhead Fros as thousands of drones were released This ht over from Ark Base, small in size but with varied abilities They were also equipped with forround level They fired viciously and indiscri Their already shaky morale took another hefty blow

Where the hell did wastelanders get such high-grade equip officer waved at the soldiers near hiuard “Send the signal Call everyone here, close off all the roads Let none of the shi+elds, crossbows and other weapons, the Elysians rallied for another attack The two forces erupted into a savage clash As well-equipped as the wastelanders were, they couldn't roll through the city without opposition

The Elysian officer surveyed the field with a grim expression Suddenly, shadows crept in fro, his vision was stained red as the throats of his subordinates opened up His guards crumpled to the floor, dead

“The the Court of Shadows!”

He was still trying to get a grip on the situation when the officer saw the dark-clad figures approach, escorting another in robes of cri to cripple the soldiers by elirily the man ripped his sword from its sheath “You think I'll be so easy to kill?!”

Before his words faded the officer thrust his sword into the red-robed fiend's body To get to this position, the Elysian soldier had to be a capable fighter But even still, what he saw next was so he could hardly believe With the sholly ih it wasn't there – like he felt nothing

“Monster! Die!” The officer pulled his weapon free and tried for another attack The man in red did not protect himself Several pieces of hihed down to the ground, quickly cru away into countless insects They skittered across the ground, surrounding the officer Bits of blood and gore on his sword gathered together, for pain ensued as the tendrils bore into his veins
