Chapter 579 - War Started (7) (1/2)

”Hurry up! The outpost already on sight!” The Regalia's reinforcements' leader hurried everyone.

Meanwhile, inside the outpost, Gaia's soldiers had prepared to ambush the reinforcements.

From the outside, the outpost seemed calm, and there was nothing strange. That was why the Regalia's reinforcement didn't feel suspicious. They hurried, and several minutes later, they arrived at the outpost.

”Open the gate!” The Regalia's leader shouted.

However, there was no response from the outpost. The Regalia's leader frowned. Then, he shouted once more. And, there was still no response yet.

The leader confused and turned around. He asked his vice leader about his opinions. However, the vice leader shrugged his shoulders.

The leader turned around once more and intended to call for the last time. However, before the sentence could escape his mouth, a signal flare flew towards the sky and exploded.

As someone who was experienced in war, these unusual things alerted the leader. Not only the leader but every Regalia's soldiers were alerted as well. They immediately took out their weapons and observed their surroundings.

A minute later, three loud sounds were heard from the outpost's direction. All of the Regalia's soldiers looked towards the outpost and instinctively raised their weapons.

When the three mortars hit the groups, a shout was heard, ”Attack!!!!”

After that shout, a rain of arrows and magic spells poured down towards the groups. All of these arrows and spells were the most strong skill or spell from the users. Not only that, but all of these attacks were area attacks.

The Regalia's soldiers were surprised. They directly used their protective spell. However, several people reacted too late. This rain of attacks powered down towards the groups.

After the first wave of attacks finished, there came the second wave. Not long after, the third wave came.

From these three attacks, Gaia's side managed to kill 50 soldiers. The first wave managed to kill 30 soldiers by surprise. Meanwhile, the second wave only reaped the life of 15 soldiers. And, the third wave killed 5 soldiers.

Actually, the attack didn't stop until the third wave. The fourth and fifth waves came. However, both of these two waves didn't reap any life because all of the Regalia's soldiers had been prepared. The Regalia's clerics also took action and started to heal everyone.

When the leader had seen the attack didn't take more casualties, he intended to back first and rearrange the formation first before deciding the next move. However, after he gave the order and was about to move, from behind them, two big groups ran out from the forest and attacked them.

Smite, and Auron led these two groups. These two groups numbered 60 people. Almost all of Gaia's soldiers were inside these two groups.

The Regalia's reinforcement's leader had believed the Gaia's spies from before. Because of that, he had put a minimal heavy armored unit at the back of the formation. Moreover, he intended to hurry up, and this formation could speed up their march speed.
