532 Godly Kingdoms Attack (1/2)

General Shidan paced along the corridor of a room. He had assembled the remainder of his troops. Though many of his soldiers were captured by Sherlock, his remaining troops were sufficient to deal with the Victorians.

Due to some consideration, he didn't inform the King. Instead, General Shidan made the decision to attack.

He didn't inform the King because the King was angry with his loss. Before he could atone for his loss, he didn't dare to antagonize the furious King. Who knew if the King would remove his General post?

His previous loss was nothing if he could bring the Little Fairy Princess back and capture the creatures of Eternal Kingdom as gifts to the King. He could redeem and bring honor to himself.

Though the thinking and plan were perfect, General Shidan wasn't sure if he could defeat the Victorians, capture the creatures of Eternal Kingdom, and rescue the Little Fairy Princess.

”General, we have assembled the soldiers. We can set out anytime!”

General Shidan steadied himself and said with determination, ”Set off!”

…

The gamers had never felt that NPCs could be such a great hindrance.

When the remnant soldiers of the Godly Kingdom set off from Goldshire Town, a few gamers informed Dragonborn. The other gamers also got to know about the news.

Dragonborn, Arthur, and his companions weren't bothered. A few gamers went to collect intelligence on General Shidan's soldiers and were chased away. They didn't obtain any information.

When Dragonborn, Arthur, and his companions walked out of Victoria Forest, they saw the Godly Kingdom army.

Even though thousands of soldiers were captured by Eternal Kingdom, the Godly Kingdom army was still too formidable for the gamers.

Dragonborn tried to negotiate with the NPCs, but General Shidan noticed that Dragonborn was with the Underworld creatures and the two Fairies. One of the Fairies was shivering in fear. He was sure that the Victorians were colluding with the creatures of Eternal Kingdom.

”For the glory of the Godly Kingdom, kill these Human traitors!” General Shidan shouted loudly, and the soldiers of the Godly Kingdom charged at Arthur and Dragonborn while shouting fiercely.

The battle erupted without any recourse.

Normal people would feel hopeless, but the gamers weren't normal people. When they saw the start of a battle, they weren't fearful. In fact, they were happy to pillage the Green Excellent Equipment from the soldiers of the Godly Kingdom.

It wasn't an easy feat to obtain equipment in this game. When the gamers of Victoria City heard about the battle, they immediately rushed to the battlefield.

But their numbers were inferior to the soldiers of the Godly Kingdom. Moreover, the gamers weren't prepared and didn't have a nearby Teleport Portal for reinforcements. Most importantly, the target of the soldiers was the Little Fairy Princess and the Underworld creatures.

The soldiers didn't fight with the Victorians. Instead, they went for Arthur and his companions. The advantage of the gamers came from their attrition tactic, but the soldiers went for a blitz attack. The gamers were massacred by the well-trained soldiers. General Shidan didn't show any mercy to the Victorians and didn't consider them allies. He viewed the Victorians as enemies who colluded with the Underworld creatures.

Otherwise, how could the Victorians survive such a brutal war with the Underworld creatures? How could Victoria City remain unscathed in the middle of Victoria Forest? They must have colluded with the creatures of Eternal Kingdom.

General Shidan became angry at his thoughts. His soldiers suffered massive losses, and many of them were imprisoned in the Dungeon, perhaps unable to return to the Surface World and be reunited with their families. Yet the Victorians were still able to laugh happily even when coming face to face with death.

General Shidan grasped the hilt of his Sword tightly. It was because of them that he was in a precarious situation. If he didn't turn the tide, the King would punish him, and everything would be too late.

He looked excitedly at his soldiers, who had pierced straight into the formation of the Victorians without much resistance and arrived in front of the Little Fairy Princess. The Orcs tried to stop the soldiers, but they were unable to defeat them. The soldiers who broke through the Victorians' formation switched to blunt weapons. They didn't intend to kill the Underworld creatures. This was according to General Shidan's order. He wanted to capture the creatures alive and bring them back to the Godly Kingdom to stand trial.

If he could rescue the Little Fairy Princess and capture the Underworld creatures, his previous loss would be insignificant. He could deceive the King by saying that his troops suffered losses because they were trying to rescue the Little Fairy Princess.

Suddenly, he noticed that the soldiers who were fighting in the front came to a stop. Both sides held back, and the bloodbath halted. A horseman rode back to General Shidan and informed him about the frontline situation.

”What? The Little Fairy Princess followed the Underworld creatures of her own accord? Those Underworld creatures rescued her?”

General Shidan felt as though his brain was being hammered. He heard ringing sounds in his ears.

He weighed the pros and cons before coming to a decision solemnly.

”This must be one of their deceptions. Don't believe them. Those Victorian traitors colluded with the creatures of Eternal Kingdom. They must be delaying for time, wanting us to release them.”
