Chapter 613 Troubles on the west front

Jhonny's front was cla.s.sified as the weakest by the blood merchant forces and hence his side saw the highest troop activity at the start of day 2.

Rudra had warned all three of them were that such a situation may occur and it was unfortunate that it was jhonny's side that was picked to be the target.

Unlike the other side where there were 3 tier 4 generals accompanied with 100,000 troops . Jhonny's side saw a total of 7 tier 4 generals alongside 200,000 tier 3 troops.

It was pretty obvious from the start that they were pretty much pushed back from the start.

Although Jhonny had the help of 3 tier 4 paladins from the church and one from the empire , they were still outnumbered 7 to 4 and even if he himself took one on , there were still 2 of them allowed to roam as they pleased.

This made the task of defending the wall impossible , as without tier 4 forces to deter tier 4 forces , one of them could literally run upto the wall and punch a hole straight through it.

Thankfully with Rudra's foresight , Medivh was asked to cover the side which was pressed the hardest and somehow with the help of the mage tower and relentless attacking , Medivh managed to keep the two warriors at bay for the first 4 hours of the day.

However with his attack patterns becoming more and more predictable the two were slowly but surely starting to gain ground while the defending forces on sir jhonny's side were near a complete route.

Jhonny who was already stretched to his limits by fighting against a tier 4 opponent formlessly realized the peril of the situation he was in , but he had absolutely no means to change the situation as all he could do was pray for a miracle.

If there was one thing that Jhonny did not wish for , it was being the one responsible for the Elites loosing the war as the division of responsibility was absolute and should the west side fall , it would mean that he had failed the guild.

After staying in the guild for so long , Jhonny had grown attached to the kids and he considered the guild to be family and his home , hence it's downfall affected him severely.

However miracles did not occur out of nowhere , and currently he had nowhere to go , with things being as they stood the wall was to fall within the next 20 minutes if nothing changed.

" haha ur finished ". Said the tier 4 general fighting Jhonny as he saw the fear creep into jhonny's eyes .

" To be fair , you never stood a chance . What did you take the merchants for ? A chimp circus or your run of the mill mercenary group?

WE ARE THE REPRESENTATIVES OF THE G.o.d LUCIFER ON MIDDLE EARTH , THE CHOSEN ONES . YOU STAND NO CHANCE AGAINST US! ". The general mocked Jhonny and exploited the desperation in his eyes to deliver a sword attack to his right arm.

Jhonny looked at his back , and saw the thinning defending lines as there were hardly 40 - 50 thousand troops left alive in his end .

' Is this it ? ' he wondered as he resigned himself to the fate of losing . There was nothing he could do about it anymore.

( Dronacharya's POV)

Dronacharya looked at the developments of the war as he breathed a sigh of releif.

Seeing the elites finally on the loosing end of the fight his unstable mind finally found some releif as he convinced himself that the elites were not in the possession of the handheld pulse cannon.

They simply could not be , otherwise they would have used it after being pressed so hard in the war.

He concluded that either the elites had got the manual to make the clay golems from another unknown source or they had not explored the ancient ruins to their fullest potential.

Either way , they were not in a position to deploy the game changing weapon in this war.

Knowing this fact , dronacharya somehow regained faith in the fact that the elites were sure to lose this war , as no matter how admirable their struggle was they were ultimately not a match for the blood merchant forces and their defeat was but a matter of time.

" Haha..hahaha....hahahahaha.. ha...ha " . Dronacharya laughed like a maniac as he paused ever so in between thinking twice about wether he should really feel happy or would the elites crush his happiness once again.

However once he covered all the possible angles , he truly laughed his sorrows out , as he rolled on the ground clutching his stomach as he mocked Rudra .

" SHAKUNII , No matter how cunning you are , you still are an ant infront of the prophet. BE CRUSHED LIKE THE INSECT YOU ARE , HAHAHAHA ".

Dronacharya was truly on cloud nine as he took to the forums to make yet another bold prediction .

' Today before the sun goes down, Purplehaze City would be destroyed

- The prophet '.

His post instantly gained a lot of attention , as he posted yet another selfie of him at the battlefield with a confident smirk plastered on his face.

His perfect social debut had been ruined , but now was his chance to make a comeback!

With a messenger delivering the news that the Western front should fall any minute now , another piece of good news came when the mercenary group that he had hired the ' Sigma Boys'. Arrived at the battlefield after being delayed by a day on their journey.

Looking at the 2 million strong reinforcements , Dronacharya had a hearty laugh as he redirected them in urgency to the western Battlefield where the chances of success were the highest.

" Go , go , although you people are late , rush to the western Battlefield , the wall should crumple any minute there , go help the troops storm the city . Hahahaha ". Dronacharya commanded as the Sigma Boys instantly sprang into action.
