Chapter 449: A Problem
Chapter 449: A Problem
My giant just jumped ten times before he finally reached one cliff. There he simply used his gigantic hands to clear the path and then climbed easily to the top.
And the next thing he started to turn into a grinding machine, killing anything he reached, and clearing many areas.
All of sudden the reinforcements these monsters once enjoyed vanished in many places where my giant visited.
In no time my armies controlled the pit, and finally they started to climb the cliff, moving the fight to the surface for the first time in this war.
The moment my army arrived there, things started to be more bloody. All the encounters here were tough, and even with the help of my giant, my army had a rough time stabilizing themselves on the expense of losing so many good skeletons, monsters, and races.
But I wasn't that sad. After all I knew coming here would be challenging and costly on my armies. I kept moving around on the top of my giant, attacking everywhere, and even he kept harassing any incoming flying legions with the deadly rocks.
"Head to that mountain there," I shouted at him as we were moving much slower than a turtle now.
The next instant he moved towards the mountain and when he reached there he asked: "Want me to merge with it?"
"Nah," I shook my head, "just break it into rocks and throw them around," I said my plan and he simply followed my orders.
For him, standing in the middle of the enemy ranks was nothing to worry about. His gigantic body was armored and protected against all attacks, and he simply didn't need to do anything to defend himself.
And when he started using his deadly rocks, chaos and death spread all over the place. I watched large numbers of my enemies fall under these rocks, and I didn't feel any sympathy for them.
"Keep hitting, break down this mountain to the bottom, let's kill them all!"
I raised my spear and shouted in great excitement while he kept attacking and throwing rocks non-stop. For me, without the presence of this giant, assaulting this place would be a long fetched dream.
Doing this gave my armies spaces to expand, breath and fight on much easier than ever. I simply kept pushing my demon to kill everywhere, while the size of the mountain started to shrink with time.
In the next ten hours, the fight kept raging hot everywhere, but soon the place started to be paved with many rocks.
And eventually my army was destined to prevail over these enemies.
"Move forward," I shouted at my giant and my armies while the number of incoming monsters here got dwarfed by much.
I didn't slack and pushed over my victory with all the power I had. The next stop was another gigantic mountain in the distance, where my demon stood alone and kept causing ruckus all around.
It took my armies ten more hours to reach me, and during this I ate some pearls and blueberries to restore my stamina and strength.
The fight was so intense, and everywhere I spotted enemies to kill. I didn't have time to even take a single breath of rest. That made my energy be consumed at a rapid pace, but I managed to keep my energy full all the time using the pearls and bruberries.
Just as my armies reached my place, I pushed my giant further. The world here seemed endless, and from time to time I tried to think how to crack this place.
"This is supposed to be a city, but all I see is endless damned wilderness," I complained after three continuous fighting days here. Despite killing endless monsters up till now, and even many skeletons evolved to something frightening to their enemies, we never reached the walls of the city.
Or even found the end of this world.
"Let me think," I muttered to myself, "if the city is the most precious place here, then it should be the most protected place here," I said while glancing over. "Focus on hitting there," I shouted when I noticed there was a place had denser population of monsters than others.
"Go over that distant mountain," I pointed my spear all of sudden toward the direction of that heavily protected place, "and climb over the mountain."
When we moved, my army was startled by the sudden change in pace and direction. We didn't clear the monsters here yet, and we never had to do that.
We didn't come here on personal vendetta to kill monsters, but to find and claim the Golam city.
When my demon reached the mountain, he climbed it. for me, it seemed like the mountain grew another mountain on top of it, and from such height I could see more clearly far in the distance.
"It's there," I finally saw something shining, something other than the usual scenes of monsters running endlessly on the ground. "break that damn mountain into pieces and kill everything around," I finally laughed again in pure heart.
The past couple of days I was burdened by the lack of knowledge about the direction I should take. And now, after spotting my target, I knew what I should do.
My giant worked his best to kill everything around. This place had the highest defenses ever met in this world, even much more stubborn than when coming out of the pit for the first time.
Yet no matter how resilient and resistant they were, in front of my armies and deadly rocks of my giant, everything seemed to be futile.
"Don't slack, we need to kill them all," I shouted, not only to my giant but to my distant army approaching here fast. The giant attracted most of the attention of the monsters in the region, so my armies found it much easier to advance and crush anything standing in their path.
The only problem here was that I could spot a distant mountain up ahead, but it was only one. "That means that would be our last standing point," I muttered while deciding to break this mountain to pieces first before heading to the next.
Up till now I didn't allow for my army to advance on me, yet right now I had to do that. To crush the enemies, I had to stay behind while they took the real pressure.
They would act as the tip of the spear, and me and my giant would act as the rear support for them.
And this was the only solution I had in mind, this and another impractical solution.
This was to make my army stop fighting and act instead as labor. Going all around, collecting the rocks my giant threw all this time here and bringing them to him to use to hit the distant monsters and city defenses.
For me this wasn't a good solution, a solution that I had to drop and postpone as the last resort for me.
As my giant kept breaking down the mountain, my army managed to reach my spot finally after long hours. "Keep pushing forwards," I shouted and then added to my giant, "we will stay behind for now."
"Alright," he said before continuing to attack.
This time he didn't have to attack all around, just focusing his throws over a certain direction. That helped a lot in increasing the death toll and making the monster army grow smaller in size, with much casualties than before.
But a problem started to emerge with time my army.
They started to push the monsters back, claiming more areas to control. That limited the areas where my giant could throw rocks, or else he would hit them by mistake.
"I can't guarantee their safety," after twelve hours of fighting, he simply stated the obvious.
"Sigh, we have no other option then but to go to that mountain," I pointed towards the distant mountain before adding, "but this will be our last stop."
"I hope we can find other sources of rocks on this mountain," he said and I knew this wasn't possible.
We were in a wilderness world where only rocks existed in the mountains. Even hills didn't exist and that made my options so limited, down to two.
"If this didn't bring good results I have to ask them to work as laborers," I sighed while waiting for my giant to reach the distant mountain.
Once reached there, he started to hit everything around first. My army was still far behind, and so it was safe to hit everywhere as crazy as this.
Yet my focus was attracted to the distant shining walls in the far horizon. "Damn, it's too far," I gritted my teeth as I knew how far it was.
And in between me and these walls, not a single mountain appeared, or even a small hill. "It seems we need to use labor work then," I shook my head before waiting for my army to reach and go beyond my location before thinking about turning them into workers.
