Death Guns In Another World

Grrrr!

The Phantom Beasts lifted their heads and let out menacing growls.

Their body became even clearer and larger. In the blink of an eye, the wolf-sized Phantom Beasts became as huge and tough as rhinoceroses. Not only that, but razor-sharp ice thorns also extended from their shoulders. In midair, the transparent Batfishes were now equipped with thicker ice armor. Their beautiful long tail had extended by more than two-meters while the sharp, dazzling ice edges on their tails let off an ice-cold radiance. On the other hand, the Blue Elves became taller, took up the shape of the standard Elves with beautiful ornament adorning their bodies. Not only that, but their hair also became smoother and silkier and the constantly moving tentacles looked as though seaweed swaying in the sea.

Alex looked ahead and gave a short command.

"Attack."

At the next moment, the scorching sea of flames and silver-whitish waves clashed heavily.

Water versus fire. The perfect counterattack.

The soldiers above the city walls were completely stunned.

They stared blankly at the scenes in the air and on the ground that were filled with steam and chilly mist. Bright flares flashed from time to time and loud explosions were heard.

"Miss Mila."

Alex wasn't in the mood to admire this beautiful scene.

"How's the situation?

"We don't have a chance yet."

"Hehehe."

Alex twitched his brow and let out a grunt.

"Don't worry. I shall see how long they can hold back."

He extended his arm and along with his movements, his mana was consumerd and the waves that were as tall as the city walls extended once again. Then, tens of thousands more water elemental creatures emerged and joined in the battle.

°°°

Vandal stared at the crystal ball before him, where he clearly saw the battle between the fire and water elements. The inherent confrontations made the fire elemental creatures almost unwilling to listen to his commands. He was no longer furious about the chaotic nature of the fire elemental creatures. Instead, he felt incredibly shocked.

The enemy is so prepared?!

He was mentally prepared for the enemy to retaliate correspondingly after the Mystical Key to the Fiery Plain was stolen. After all, it proved that the enemy knew what they were doing to activate the summoning stone to create some trouble for him before stealing the Mystical Key. Moreover, Vandal had considered the high possibility that the enemy had stolen the Key in order to deal with the fire elemental creatures from the Fiery Plain. But back then, he only expected the enemy to increase the number of elemental Mages to set up counteractive spells or summon fire elemental creatures in response. However, never did he expect the enemy to hold the Mystical Key to the water plane of existence!

Come to think of it, since the enemy was aware of the elemental teleportation door, it wasn't surprising that they also had a Key as well. But how did they summon that many water elemental creatures in such a short time?

Vandal knew how difficult it was to establish and expand the elemental channels. But now, judging from the water elemental creatures darting out of the surging waves shown inside the crystal ball, the enemy's elemental channel wasn't only stable, but also high in level. This left him baffled because in the previous battle, there were neither reports of the enemy holding onto the Mystical Key to Silver Ocean nor mentions about them summoning water elemental creatures. On the other hand, they heard that there was a young lady who held formidable fire elemental powers, which prompted him to activate their Key that led to the Fiery Plain. If the enemy had a Key, they should have summoned the water elemental creatures. If he knew that it was the Fantasy Key belonging to the Silver Ocean, he wouldn't have done something so foolish!

Could it be that the enemies built the teleportation door that linked to Silver Ocean after the previous battle? Are you kidding me?! Establishing the channel required a lot of time and it had tougher requirements for high-level ones. This was why Vandal chose to use quantity to make up for quality. If it was possible, he wished to build teleportation doors of the highest level continuously and simply end the war by summoning the ultimate Flame Demon.

But the prerequisite was that the enemy must be patient enough to give him five to ten years to build them and it was obviously impossible.

"What's going on!"

Vandal scanned the crystal ball. After a few moments, he turned to the panicky vampire with a gloomy expression. Novel Fire - novelfire.net

The vampire shuddered in an ashen expression as he sensed the wrath and murderous intent exuding from Vandal's eyes.

He was equally puzzled over this situation.

"I-I don't know anything, Sir Vandal. I swear that the enemy didn't summon any water elemental creatures in the previous battle. General and the commander can testify it!"

"Hmph! Are you trying to say that the enemy managed to get their hands on such a high-level teleportation door in just a few days?"

Vandal let out a grunt. It seemed that it was meaningless finding trouble with this useless bastard any longer. The advantages and disadvantages in battles were largely due to the collection of intelligence. However, the results of his intelligence gathering had been terrible. All the scouts, including his Corpse Slave that he sent out, were eliminated.

The group of black-skinned fallen ones, so Vandal supposed that they were murdered. Moreover, there was a dense, extraordinary holy aura in the enemy territory, which kept them away from the fortress. Therefore, the intelligence that he gathered up until this point was all from Lars's battle. He didn't believe that the enemy could come up with huge changes to their forces in a short period of time, but it seemed that he was too naive.

Although both sides seemed to be evenly matched, Vandal was aware that if this continued, the fire elemental creatures on his side would be worn out. Moreover, the distance was also a big problem. The water elemental creatures fought from their doorsteps while the fire elemental summoning door was a distance away from the battlefield. Even if he increased the number of fire elemental creatures summoned, they still wouldn't match up to the water elemental creatures. He had initially planned to use the fire elemental creatures' self-explosion and igniting properties to catch the enemy off guard. But he didn't expect to receive this severe blow from them. If he continued this battle, perhaps his fire elemental summoning door would shut down due to over-exhaustion before he broke the ice barrier.

However, as a military commander, he had to always have the ability to adapt. Otherwise, Undead Creatures wouldn't be this powerful.

"Order the fire elemental creatures to back down and regroup. First, Third, and Fifth legion! Get ready for battle!"

Vandal commanded.

The chaotic battle instantly ended.

The fire elemental creatures suddenly turned around and headed off in the opposite direction. In the blink of an eye, the violent sparks vanished and the dusky, scarlet creatures retreated and left the attacking range of the fortress. On the other hand, Alex gestured and the water elemental creatures abandoned the thought of giving chase, which was closely tied to their personalities. Water elemental creatures were mostly calm and submissive while fire elemental creatures were rowdy and hot-tempered. Shortly after, the chilly wind swept the fog along and revealed the traces of explosions, burns, and presence of the shimmering Phantom Beasts and Batfishes.

The whole city walls was in complete silence. The soldiers were dumbfounded. They had never expected to witness such a fantasy-like battle. After the fire elemental creatures retreated into the distance, the soldiers broke into loud cheers. Although they weren't involved in the battle, they were fired up by the magnificent scene.

However, Alex wasn't as delightful as them. He gazed forward coldly.

"Alice, order the Healers to cast the defensive barrier. Now!"

"Yes, Mr. Alex!"

Alice turned around and commanded hurriedly. The Healers scuttled forward and chanted softly in unison, where sacred, complex runes appeared and merged together. Shortly after, a golden spiritual radiance flashed and a translucent barrier emerged over everyone. On the other hand, the leader of the Ocean Elves stepped back while their tentacles spiraled gracefully in midair to draw azure runes one after another. In the blink of an eye, a new, smooth, solid ice barrier grew over the fortress.

At the same time, sparkling radiances that resembled stars emerged in the darkness on the opposite side.

Those weren't the brilliance of stars. Those were arrows lit up with spiritual flames.

"Ambush—!"

A rain of countless arrows streaked across the dark sky and engulfed the entire fortress. The soldiers lifted their shields and hid behind the walls, only to find the arrows clattering on the invisible, defensive barrier over them. For the time being, all they could do was to take cover and wait for the arrow attack to end.

Alex stood on the peak of the tower proudly. The arrows that were about to reach him were deflected by an invisible strength. He clasped his sword hilt and narrowed his eyes.

Although there seemed to be nothing ahead, he sensed his heart pumping fast because he was familiar with this feeling. In the game, this was a usual scene from his battles with the Undead Creatures and now, the entire battle had set onto the path which he was most familiar with.

The rain of arrows lasted for about six minutes. The soldiers lifted their heads frantically. The ones who fought the Undead Creatures in the previous battle appeared fine. However, it was shocking for the newer soldiers to experience such a terrifying arrow attack. There was an instant when they thought that the arrows were indefinite and they would be buried by them like a wave.

Shortly after, they heard a deep sound from afar.

Boom… Boom…

Boom…
