Chapter 423 - War(4) : The Counterattack Of The Triads
Rudra watched from a bit of distance as he could see that Jhonny had arrived at east gate , on a giant dinasaur at that.
The dinasaur and Jhonny were a two man wrecking crew , as the dinasaur stomped and flung away players with its tail , while Jhonny was a dagger throwing machine. Alongside the Archballistae and the Elite troops ground support. The situation at East gate seemed to have stabilized.
About 15 tanks stood shoulder to shoulder blocking the entrance to East gate , while the lifestyle guild players had quickly gotten to work making a makeshift wall trying to patch up the open areas.
However it was undoubtedly Jhonny's arrival that stabilized the situation at East gate , and with him on the dinasaur head , Rudra was able to take a second to breathe , to actually assess what the hell was going on in this war.
Naturally the moment that Hao Mi got news that a portion of the gate had been blown off at the East side , she staged a retreat and redirection of forces , as he efforts to breach north gate had been in vain.
Hence progressively the northern side troops backed up , as the front line retreated to 100 meters , while the backline changed directions and went towards the East gate.
Rudra knew that although things had temporarily stabilized , under a very concentrated attack from the Triad alliance down the east . It would be difficult to hold out.
The Troops who had retreated now recieved a fresh set of orders , clearly instructing them on how to deal with the Dragonhead flamethrowers and how to stage a concentrated charge down the east side.
Although Hao Mi had lost nearly 30% of her total forces for absolutely nothing . She still had enough to make the Elites lives difficult. The forces on the north gate , and the south both converged as the entire battlefront now became the East.
This was a very wise move on the part of Hao Mi , as one side of the wall , would only have a limited number of Archballistae and Dragonhead flamethrowers , which was better than a 3 pronged attack where they would face exponentially more of them.
The long range troops had one order now , which was retaliation. Hao Mi wanted the Archballistae and Dragonhead flamthrowers decomissioned . Although difficult , the task was not impossible , as thousands of Triad archers , rangers and wizards took aim to hit them from distance.
The Dragonhead flamethrowers had an effective range of only 30 meters , hence limited range was one of its major drawbacks.
With the Triads out of the 30m range , it was effectively useless. The moment the triads started to attack the Archballistae and the flamethrower heads , Rudra issued an order to retreat the dragonheads and put down the metal flaps to protect them.
If an Archballistae was destroyed , it was not a big deal they could always produce new ones , but the components to produce a dragonhead were only available in Draconia and not readily available here in the human lands . Making its damage very concerning to the guild.
Hence under heavy targetting from the Triads , the Archballistae did start to show mechanical signs of failure , as various spells and arrows hit it.
This was ofcourse a tradeoff , as while attacking , the wizards and archers left themselves vulnerable to counter attacks as well , and the troops stationed on the walls did their best to pick them off.
Hence although the Elites suffered the loss of a few Archballistae , they did cripple the opponents best PVE forces . Leaving them with only an assaulter legion.
Rudra , Karna , Neatwit and a few others reached the East gate , and started to check on the situation there.
Fatty had arrived and was taking over retrofitting the broken part of the gate , trying to wield the massive gate back in place.
Rudra looked at him and asked " How much time do you need ?"
Fatty , instantly said " 30 mins"
Rudra wanted to curse and slap the fat off his fat friend .... Did the situation look like he could leisurely give him 30 mins of time?
Jhonny outside was already under intense pressure , as the dinasaur he was on had already dropped to 40% of its max HP. Meaning that it won't last much longer .
Rudra knew that he needed to buy time for the defences to come back up , and with limited long range capabilities and a horde of enemies tunneling in towards this gate , it was going to become a hotbox.
Rudra cursed , as he knew that some of the Elites would need to go down on ground zero and take on the task of facing these guys head on.
He obviously knew who they were going to be , him , karna , Jhonny , Yume , SMG and finally Neatwit.
Before going out , Rudra had only one command to give , and that was to Medivh .... Which was " It's time ".
Medivh nodded and seemingly dissapoeared in Purplehaze city.
While a very small bunch of Elites casually walked out of the East gate of Purplehaze city .
15 tanks standing shoulder to shoulder protecting the exposed gate , infront of them were a handful of elites , infront of whom was one massive dinasaur and Jhonny.
This was the lineup Rudra decided to go forward with , while facing hundereds of thousand of triad soldiers.
On paper it looked madness , it looked hopeless for the Elites who were like lamb waiting to be slaughtered . However the eyes of the Elites who looked at the enemy were absolutely not afraid ... They were eyes of predators stalking their prey. As it was this moment that Rudra had been waiting for ever since the war started . The moment where he would establish the dominance of the elites and proove to the world , that the only players in Omega worthy of calling themselves as an Elite gamer , were them.
Rudra turned around and looked at Rhino , and said " Record this for me ".
Then at Neatwit and said " Here , it's ur time for revenge ".
Hundereds rushed , the walls of Purplehaze city now , as the troops on the wall gave heavy supression fire . The working Archballistae pelting the rushing troops. It was complete chaos.
Jhonny retreated his dinasaur when it's health reached under 10% , and joined the other Elites on the ground .
The second phase of the war was now underway!
