Greenie and Aelrinder immediately charged forth and clashed with the two monsters, doing their best in order to stop them in their tracks and block them from doing any major damage to the players.
The old demon and centaur were behind the army, calmly walking and taking in the sights, not looking nervous or bothered about the huge battle at all.
The two monsters Greenie and Aelrinder stopped were nothing special and each one of them could easily deal with them.
Greenie had taken on a dinosaur-looking monster that walked on four legs and had six large horns coming out of its head. The head was about 1 meter in diameter and instead of a mouth, the monster had a beak.
Its body was huge, larger than an average house and its tail was slim and looked similar to a sword.
With a roar, the monster charged at Greenie, only to be stopped in its tracks as Greenie planted his feet into the ground and grabbed two of the horns. With a shout, Greenie suddenly lifted the monster up before swinging it around and knocking many monsters down.
That action alone had killed tens of monsters.
Aelrinder, on the other hand, had used his spear to stab the other monster, but the latter managed to dodge it. The monster walked on two feet and had no head but a long tentacle on which multiple eyes could be seen.
The monster's two arms extended all the way down to the ground, making for an eerie sight. Its feet were also armed, spotting dangerously sharp claws on them while two tails extended out of its back.
Each of the tails was about 3 meters long, which, paired up with the monster's 2.3-meter-long body, made for a weird sight. The tails were all pointed at their ends and Aelrinder could only imagine how dangerous they could be when used as weapons.
The monster suddenly moved, its speed great, but not above Aelrinders. He quickly moved to the side before stabbing at the monster's head, only for two of the tails to block his spear while the last one stabbed at his head.
'I was waiting for something like that.' Aelrinder thought as he ducked before suddenly swinging his spear to the side. It had managed to penetrate both of the monster's tails and he was able to move the monster's entire body with a swing of his spear.
Being caught off guard, the monster lost its balance and almost fell down, only being able to stay upright by stabbing the last tail into the ground to stabilize itself. It then quickly attacked Aelrinder with its powerful claws, only for the latter to block the claws with the spear before quickly kicking it back with force.
"It seems those monsters have no chance of winning against those two." The old demon said as he stretched his neck. He smiled ferociously before charging at Aelrinder while the centaur charged at Greenie who had slammed the large monster down on the ground and summoned his hammer in order to smash its head to pieces.
Losing a Tier IV monster right away would be incredibly bad for the army, so the centaur quickly threw its spear at Greenie, forcing him to jump back in order to dodge the blow.
He stared at the centaur that passed next to the monster with incredible speed and picked up his spear that had penetrated four monsters before stopping. Even though they were on the same side, the centaur leader had no remorse for killing monsters.
"An ogre working with humans, it seems we are not the only ones that have started cooperating with them." The centaur said as he stared at Greenie who had a smirk on his face.
"Well look at this, a horse that can talk, he also wields a spear."
"I wonder how your flesh will taste like after I kill you and tenderize it with my hammer," Greenie said before releasing his full aura, prompting Aelrinder to do the same as he had just met with the demon.
Both of them had previously been holding back as they knew that they would have to face two opponents each. Even though going all out could have allowed them to take out one or both of the monsters, it was possible that it would have also allowed the enemy to strike at them while they were unaware or unable to defend themselves.
The old demon summoned a sword and stared at Aelrinder with a bloodthirsty smile on his face while the three-tailed monster stood next to him. The tentacle wiggled around and the eyes stared at Aelrinder with hatred as the tentacles started changing.
From a half a meter long tentacle, it suddenly turned into a ball that stood on the neck of the monster while multiple small spikes were visible on it. The eyes were still there and they allowed the monster to have a 360 view of its surroundings, making it nearly impossible for it to be ambushed.
The two armies had now come close enough and had clashed against each other.
Magokur's orcs were at the frontline, not because Reign wanted to use them as fodder, but because they themselves had requested it.
They were a race of warriors and never shied away from the battle, even though they knew the casualties they would take would not be light, they didn't care and wanted to fight. They were more powerful than normal monsters in the same realm, and together with the players, they were able to immediately force the tide of monsters to a halt and started unleashing all their powers against them.
Elijah and his team were also at the very front of the army together with the other top teams. They all had their little areas where they fought against the monsters, and a couple of the enemy top-tier combatants had clashed with them.
Carlo and Marco fought at the side of the army, blocking any monsters from going around and flanking the army. Both of the men were peak Tier III combatants, but it was clear that Carlo was the stronger one.
Their teamwork was exceptional and the two of them together were able to take most of the pressure, allowing their men to easily combat the remaining monsters and deal with them.
"This won't be an easy fight if only Reign and the others were here," Marco said with a sigh as he blocked a monster before attacking and killing it in a single hit.
"Any news of them, are we really left to our own right now?" Carlo asked Marco who shook his head.
"I have no idea, nobody knows how long it would take them, hell, nobody even knew they were gone!"
"They probably did it like that in order for the enemy to not find out," Carlo said as he killed a monster and blood splattered on his body.
"Yeah, I do agree with the way they have done things, it's better to be safe than sorry after all," Marco said as Carlo suddenly used his mana and summoned multiple earth spikes to impale tens of monsters that were in front of them.
One thing that shocked not only Marco, but a lot of people around them, was the fact that one of the earth spikes was not the normal brown color, instead, it was gray and shone like metal.
Blood flowed down from the spike as Marco stared at his chest. The gray spike had risen from behind him before impaling him through the chest and destroying his heart.
"Unfortunately, I know you won't join us, so I can only give you a swift and painless death, old friend," Carlo said with a sigh as about half of his men suddenly turned their weapons to their comrades and started slaughtering them.
"You … you!" Marco stared at Carlo in disbelief as the latter shook his head.
"For how long?"
"It has been a couple of years, we just decided that it would be better for me and the others to stay hidden before the organization had a need for us to show ourselves, like right now," Carlo said as he suddenly raised his hand before taking off a ring.
His aura suddenly exploded from around him, much more powerful than it was before. Carlo was a Tier IV combatant.
"A deception ring, allows one to show a different level of power to others, this is what has served me very well in the past, but it has lost its use now," Carlo said as he put the ring into a spatial ring he had on the other hand before willing all the spikes to go back to the ground.
Marco's eyes were left wide open as he exhaled one last time, still focused on Carlo, in utter shock and disbelief at his betrayal.
"Now, let's take care of the others," Carlo said with a smile as he looked at Greenie and Aelrinder, only for his eyes to suddenly widen in shock as he jumped to the side as a ray of light passed next to him.
The ray penetrated through more than ten monsters in the distance before dissipating.
"You won't be doing such a thing today." A hooded figure said as it appeared a couple of meters from Carlo.
