The Geared Immortal

Chapter 1156

(Unedited)

…

In front of the town, the large army of enemy soldiers is lined up neatly in a formation while exposing thick killing intent in the air.

In front of the soldiers stood their commanding officer who looks like a burly yet fat middle-aged man wearing his thick armor. Beside him are his officers who are leading this large army of more than 10 thousand men.

They know that in the town… there are only around 5 thousand soldiers along with the recent reinforcement that just arrive a few days ago. With their number of twice the size of their enemy, they have the confidence to take down this small town this time.

Large catapults are being deployed in the area of the battlefield protected by a few runemasters. Although catapults have long ranges and huge destructing power when it comes to destroying buildings and walls, it is susceptible to powerful archer attacks.

Hence the catapults are less likely to be deployed first. Meanwhile, the archers are the ones who are set up on the battlefield to do the attacking first to try and test the capability of the enemy.

As the kingdom of Glysko soldiers advances, while exchanging arrows with the soldiers from the kingdom of Jimal, it has already signified the start of the battle.

…

"Medic! Someone was hit by an arrow!" shouted a soldier as he held on to his companion.

A medical master and an assistant immediately run while being protected by a runemaster. The medical master quickly deployed what he has learned from the quick training they have undergone into. Using three needles, he quickly removes the armor and then controlled the pain. Then using a dagger, he removes the arrow which immediately made the soldier on his side widen in anger and disbelief. When he was about to do something, the assistant stopped him.

"Do not worry… this is the new technique we have learned. Trust us…" the assistant said.

The arrow was removed and the medical uses a few drops of potion to heal the wound from the inside. Then he slowly closes the wound by using a few drops of a high-grade potion.

It did not take long before the soldier is back on his feet.

Those who saw this became excited as they feel their blood boil. In this war, all they needed to do is to be careful and not get hit fatally. If this happens, then their lives would be saved and they could return to battle.

This same scene is actually happening atop the wall and it raised the morale of the soldiers from the kingdom of Jimal.

And so, right now, the most protected personnel at the top of the wall are the medical masters.

The battle continues and the soldiers from Glysko noticed that something is wrong. Many have noticed that those that were fallen a while ago would suddenly stand up a few minutes or seconds later and continue fighting.

"What is happening? Why are their numbers not dwindling?" shouted a commander in the front lines while looking at his bronze spyglass.

"We don\'t know commander, the number of the soldiers at the top of the walls is not decreasing…" shouted one of his officers.

"That is impossible! Even if they use rune barriers, those are not effective against our Ki arrows!" the commander shouted in agitation.

He continues observing the situation but he could tell that the decrease of the number of his soldiers is greater than the enemy which made him feel a bit confused.

"Bring forth the catapult!" he shouted.

The catapult lying on the ground slowly moved forward as the runemasters control their movements.

As soon as the catapult moved, a golden arrow suddenly flew towards it.

Wheng!!!

A strong force hits the barrier surrounding the catapult which pushed it back.

"There! Takedown their long-range shooter!" shouted an officer.

A series of arrows was sent in the direction of the one who shot the golden arrow.

That guy was hit with a couple of arrows and immediately went down.

"Got him! Continue advancing!" shouted the officer.

Another arrow flew and hit the barrier of the second catapult, and then another. There are four catapults, so four golden arrows went flying and hit their barriers. The retaliation was quick which take down two of the shooters from atop the wall.

The snipers continue shooting at the remaining two, but they have already fled behind the protection of a barrier.

After a few minutes later, the catapults have already been positioned to fire.

But then suddenly a golden arrow flew which startled the soldier arming a catapult.

This time, the golden arrow broke through the barrier which has already been weakened by the first shot.

The wielder of the golden arrow could only shoot 2 times before their Ki energy would be spent. And those people are usually 10th level Ki fighters. So taking them down after finding them is the crucial key to saving a catapult.

But who would have known that the soldiers from the kingdom of Jimal would be able to still stand and fire another arrow after being struck down?

When the golden arrow penetrated through the barrier, it immediately hit the catapult and it exploded. It sent debris flying all over the place and even hit many soldiers around it.

Then it did not take long before another catapult was destroyed.

"Fire! Fire at the walls!" shouted an officer as a catapult is already prepared to fire.

Swoosh!!!

A large boulder was sent flying in the air and its trajectory is towards a wall.

Ka-Boom!!!

A loud explosive sound reverberated through the air as the large boulder hits the wall. It immediately tore through the wall and made it crumble into pieces.

The soldiers caught in that part of the wall fell and those behind it were crushed.

"Yeah!!!" the soldiers from the kingdom of Glysko cheered as they saw the wall crumble.

"Tell everyone to attack that wall!!!" shouted the commander feeling elated at the scene.

Boom!!!

But the catapult was then shut down by a golden arrow.

The rest of the catapults were destroyed, but the commander and the officers did not mind it.

Since there is a hole in the wall of the enemy, it is time for them to send all of their forces through that hole and penetrate through the defenses of the town. With this, they are already assured of their win.

If the first attack they have no choice but to withdraw because they fail to puncture the wall of the town. This time, they knew that they can now conquer it.

"All cavalries!" shouted an officer after receiving a signal from the commander.

With his shout, a large number of soldiers on horseback form a line. Their aura and powerful forms show their gallant spirit as they prepare to charge.

"Commander the infantries have already reached the breach!" shouted one of the officers.

"Good! Tell the heavy infantry to also advance…" shouted the commander.

With a signal from an officer, the heavy infantry began walking forward.

  The fighting at the breach of the wall became intense as Ki attacks began glowing and flying all over the place. Both the opposing soldiers are giving it their all as one advance and one defends.

In the midst of this battle, Xin Ja has finally finished the weapon he has prepared. It took him a bit of time, but at last, he was able to finish it. Feeling a bit proud of himself, he immediately hid them in his space and quickly ran outside.

As soon as he walks out of his tent, he was dumbfounded upon seeing the large hole on the wall. Then he could see intense fighting happening on that part and the soldiers pushes to defend the breach while the enemy began pouring inside.

Xin Ja immediately feels a hint of fear in his heart upon seeing this brutality and horror in front of him. Although he has been in battles before, yet this type of gravity of battle is something that he has not experienced.

It was like every soldier in front of him went insane as they began to attack like crazy as if they did not have any regard for their own lives.

Seeing the carnage and the bloodshed happening, Xin Ja suddenly feels a bit shocked and seems to have felt his knees weakening.

He is just a 15-year-old youth who has not seen the gruesomeness of war. And right now, he is seeing it first hand and he could only shake in fear as a response.

Suddenly, he shifted his body to his left as he dodges an arrow. It was his automatic reflex that seems to control his body. This type of automatic reflex is what has saved him in the forest when he is just a weakling.

And this same automatic reflex has been ingrained in his bones through his constant training in the forest.

And now it seems to have served its purpose.

This has woken him from his stupor as he quickly gritted his teeth. He has no choice now but to face this horrifying scene if he wanted to live.

Extending his hand to the side, Xin Ja finally takes out the new weapon he created for the purpose of this battle.
