MMORPG : Rebirth Of The Strongest Guild Master

Chapter 637 The power of one man

Rudra arrived at the eastern battlefield and started to casually mount his offense without straining his body.

He picked up a random blood stained spear from the ground and buried it firmly in the ground before mounting scar-face's dead head on it , as he kept it on display for the blood merchants to see and cower in fear.

Rudra was very casual in his fighting as he let his bone dragon and Furball do most of the damage as he himself would only rarely throw out one or two sword slashes using the grim reaper.

While his physical presence did not change the tide of the war at all , his psychological presence changed the entire game.

The elites soldiers felt their morale soaring as they saw their guildmaster coming to assist them as they recieved an psychological energy boost to beat back the opponents.

In wars morale was a mysterious thing and a group with a high morale often overcame even the most difficult adversities.

Rudra had chosen to enter the Battlefield from the second lane where Neatwit was not physically present , as that lane was the most poorly defended area of the entire city.

There were only two blocks left until the enemy reached the gates of the inner city from that location .

While the inner-city was heavily fortified , in terms of area to cover it was only as large as one sector and if the walls of the inner city were breached then even Rudra had little confidence from stopping the merchant army from storming the gates.

On an average , for every 3 Elite that fell , about 7 merchants died as well and the balance of war was starting to ever so slightly tip in the direction of the elites.

Having created a sophisticated system of Reinforcements and first aid centers. Rudra had converted the city into the ultimate battleground as every other roof had some sort of defensive structure mounted on it and every street had blockades and traps set up.

For every time the elites retreated , they would bring out the handheld pulse cannons and shoot 10-20 shots creating a space vaccum before calmly retreating without casualties as they threatened the charging forces with the same sort of death should they get out of line.

Technically the elites only had so much ammunition for the handheld pulse cannons. Should they use it on one mass Slaughter , they would be rendered defenseless in later stages of the war , hence guild management had tactically advised the members to use the weapons only for retreating or reducing enemy numbers when things became out of control.

Rudra's presence was both a deterrent and a bait as while the common soldiers did not dare fight Rudra head on , his lousy way of fighting definitely made breaking news as the tier 4 generals in the eastern front recieved information that Shakuni was injured.

The war was reaching a critical stage and the blood merchant generals knew that with scar-face dead someone needed to take command of the forces.

Currently the best bet that the merchants had was to exploit the two lanes created by scar-face's attacks and swiftly take down the walls of innercity and storm the palace.

Although it was easier said than done , with an injured shakuni and 5 tier 4 generals present within the Eastern Battlefield , it was very much possible.

Two of the most senior generals talked amongst themselves and decided that only one of them would continue fighting Neatwit in lane one , while the other one would go on and free the other tier 4 generals who were fighting against tier 4 paladins of the Church in the eastern battlefield , before the four of them rallying a legion of troops against Shakuni in lane 1.

The plan was simple :

1) Outnumber Shakuni and kill him while he is injured , and restore troop morale .

2) Use best moves to punch a hole in the inner city wall

3) Storm the inner-city using the might of the eastern legion , and rally troops from other Battlefronts to abandon their attack lines and focus on the one opening that had been created.

4) win the war by storming the palace and retrieving the kingdom token.

Enacting this plan , one of the two tier 4 generals fighting Neatwit in lane 2 retreated and went off to support the others in getting rid of the paladins from the church first.

Albeit a risky plan , the merchants bet it all in busting through lane one , where they had the least ground to cover.

After 30 minutes of fighting and forcing the tier 4 paladins from church to run for their lives , four tier 4 blood merchant generals banded together , as they rallied their troops towards lane 1 .

Coming out of the biggest fight of his life , Shakuni was headed into another one . However with his physical state restricting his combat potential to 30% of his peak prowess , could he hold the fort down once more for the elites?

Or would this be the moment where he finally fell and his invincible legend ended?

*****

( Meanwhile Dronacharya )

Dronacharya was in a prison cell , being held captive in the blood merchant camp as his cell was fitted with anti-teleportation properties .

Restrained with hard steel cuffs meant to hold tier 4 prisoners and awaiting his judgement as a war criminal , all he could do while sitting in the cell was scroll the forums and see bits of the war videos being posted.

His eyes popped out of his sockets when he saw Rudra decapitating scar-face , as while others may not know the true extent of that mans powers , dronacharya knew it perfectly well.

Wondering where and how he went wrong , the only thing he prayed for now was the demise of the elites.
