Chapter 372 - An Army Of The Trifle Clan
It took a couple of hours to meet the first army of the Trifle clan. The army was leading a large group of pathetic looking people.
"I found you," he roared, and his sudden appearance startled everyone. The people cheered creating such an uproar, while the hostile army tried to gather up their lines fast.
Yet Arthur was faster to react.
"Open many gates and let my armies out," he said before opening his mouth and those who tried to group had the bad luck first.
His fire got much augmentation after the upgrade he had. So, with simple spray of his fire many died; none remained alive after getting in touch with his fire.
His armies, led by Jack and his group, joined the fight with this mighty scene of their master killing everything in his path.
"Let's join the master, kill all!" Jack had his blood boiling after seeing such a scene, shouting with his lungs to his men and new army.
And the next moment tens of thousand moved fast to attack those scattered everywhere.
The Trifle clan warriors weren't that much to begin with; scattered and with the first strike Arthur landed they lost all the will to fight.
It wasn't strange for some to start running, leaving behind their friends and fellow clansmen.
Arthur wasn't that kind to let anyone escape, so he left the main battle to his grand army and went to hunt those deserters.
There was no end other than death for those here. In less than an hour, the fight ended. Just before the end, the leader of this army made sure to leave behind a bitter memory; ordering his remaining men to leave everything and turn their blades to the peaceful helpless people.
This caused a small massacre, yet when Arthur interfered, he managed to decrease the losses by a great margin.
"Go inside," he was enraged by this defiled last act of these enemies. He cancelled his transformation while adding to his system: 'Make sure their slave marks are removed.'
'Ding! I haven't removed the previous batch yet!'
'Add them then to the queue,' he simply said before glancing over the portals, 'and add some more.'
'…'
The system did what he asked for and it took roughly another half an hour to absorb a population of a hundred thousand or more plus his army. "Be ready for the next fight," he shouted at Jack and others, as they nodded before vanishing from his sight through the portals.
"Next," he muttered before returning to his dragon form and soaring the sky again.
Despite not having a detailed map of this region, he still had the map Olor drew in his mind. He always returned to it to figure where he was and where to head next.
He kept jumping from one place to another, attacking many armies, releasing hundreds of thousands of population and leaving none of his enemies behind.
After a couple of times, Jack and his men leading the giant armies of his warriors got used to his tactic. The scene of him spraying fire on the largest group of warriors in the area.
And this scene never got old in their eyes at all!
However, after an entire day of hunting these armies, the first reaction of the Trifle clan came strong and in such a grandiose way.
An army of hundreds of thousands led by tens of thousands of monsters appeared looming in the distance; cutting the road on him to press forward.
"Tsk, can't you let me hunt in peace for three days then?" he shook his head while laughing in an amusing way. "Anyway, I need my armies to train better on large wars, not these small skirmishes that give them nothing."
The next moment hundreds of portals appeared and he stood in front of them all. Hundreds of thousands of his warriors appeared from the portals in the next minutes, while the opposing army pressed hot on them.
"Roar!" and Arthur roared before he muttered to his system, "Bring those thousand monsters that I gained from the quest here, with my dragons."
The next moment a thousand monsters appeared in front of him. They weren't flying monsters as he expected, instead they were giant elephant-like monsters with sharp spear-like trunks that could be used as mighty weapons.
And they had another thing that made him surprised and amused.
"They can attack from distance?" that reminded him of his scorpion, and Sara. "Bring Sara over," he said before adding ,"come forth my scorpion."
The scorpion queen appeared on the ground while Sara appeared on the air. His army started to rival the enemy in their grand formation; warriors with formations on the ground, and monsters in the air and ground.
Even the numbers look matched! Yet the personal strengths and the team work would determine the outcome of this large fight.
Both armies stretched for miles, and Arthur dominated the sky with Sara and his dragons, while his enemies sent thousands of flying monsters to stop them.
As for the rest, they had to dispatch the major part to stop the ground monsters. Or else their ground armies would be done for.
"You finally remembered me!" Sara seemed quite annoyed by his lack of contact with her.
"You need to adapt to that," and he didn't apologize, as he couldn't be with her all the time.
"Then take me to your academy," she asked.
"Sure, I have plans for you," he promised before adding, "now let's focus on this fight."
"This?" she laughed before adding, "we will crush them."
He laughed with her as he took out his bow and arrows. It had been long since he used the arrows in fights since coming back, and now it was the time to devastate his enemies.
"Rumble!"
"Rumble!"
"Rumble!"
The next hour sounds of explosions rumbled the entire battlefield. He made sure to target those behind, to make sure his army wouldn't be caught in the middle of his arrows.
Besides, the leaders of the army would be stationed there.. Keeping them busy defending seemed a good choice for him.
