Chapter 129 Old Man!
"What the hell are you waiting for? Go now!" Seeing such a reaction, the old patriarch shouted in an enraged way that jolted everyone awake.
'Yes… The situation is far more dangerous than we initially thought…' This mere flash of thought appeared in everyone's minds at the same moment.
However, the two who got selected didn't delay any further. They jumped off the walls and made a run as they were running for their lives.
Their scary patriarch was getting mad for no reason. Wasn't this war heading towards their victory? What was going on exactly? Yet such questions kept ringing alarming bells in the heads of the elders, even the two who moved away.
Only the patriarch and William knew the root of this.
On the frontline, the two elders surprised everyone by their sudden presence. Even William was taken aback before he understood everything.
"So, you are watching all this time? That's great… I thought you were growing old, becoming lazy or something!"
"Cough! Cough!"
When the two elders heard his words, they couldn't help but have a change in their faces and cough. William mistook that only the patriarch was listening and didn't know that he was delivering his words to everyone at this moment.
What would be the case when the patriarch would repeat such words in front of everyone? And how come William was speaking to their venerable figure in such a way?
"Don't forget, there is still another battle up there to fight!" but before any of the two elders would reprimand him for saying such mean words, what William said left them all stupefied.
What the heck?! They all cursed inwardly, even the far away elders. But at this moment, they all started to link up the dot, beginning to see the entire picture for the first time.
It was all William's doing! The message that Berry left must have something to do with the weird attitude their patriarch had.
There was still another fight waiting? How come?
Seeing the terrifying bears moving towards the gate and other monsters, they all asked the same question in their minds:
'Is there a much more terrifying enemy coming up? Damn!'
"This damn brat… Humph!" And on the far away walls, the old patriarch couldn't help but fume in rage when he realised what he just said on behalf of William.
Yet this was all a false rage, and he inwardly still admired such a kid. Even in this situation, he was still putting a strong front, acting in an attitude that befitted a real experienced powerhouse, not just a mere eight years old kid.
"Take these," William took out a few thousand extra spears, "these shall be enough."
He didn't wait for a single moment behind and went to resume his control over the battle, distributing more orders over the directions the other spirit masters should throw the spears at.
The two elders exchanged looks and each saw the seriousness in each other's eyes.
If they planned before to finish this task and return fast for the sake of avoiding the scary patriarch's wrath, at this moment they knew their clan was still in danger.
So, they'd better move right away and do their task before coming back fast.
"Come with me," each one took one team of the volunteer spirit masters and started running. They didn't even hold their speed or waited for their team members to catch up.
From a single glance, the two elders seemed to be in a fervent race, seeing which one would finish his task first or something like that.
"Father… What did Berry tell you exactly?" As things were starting to clear up in front of the elders' eyes, Berry's father decided to take the initiative and ask about details.
"You guessed it right, but we can't talk about it right now," the old man paused and before his stubborn son would speak again, he added, "we are watched by the enemy. So, it's better to keep our tactics and strategies hidden."
"..."
It was a shocking revelation. And none of them suspected that such an intel didn't come from this formidable patriarch but from William.
William left such a warning at the end of the message. Even Berry didn't take it for real and considered him joking.
Someone was spying over her mighty grandfather? This was insane!
Yet the old man realised that everything William claimed happened. Even if he claimed the sky to fall and the world to end at this moment, this old man wouldn't doubt his words anymore.
So, if he said they were being watched, then someone was really doing it. By the two elder's absence, the battle returned to the same old routine that William held total control over.
"Throw a few spears there, new monsters are coming out from the forest."
"Don't miss this bunch of bastards, take them down right now!"
"Attack that zone, stop any way of retreat for them."
"Don't lead bears to the walls, they will attack us afterwards!"
In the middle of all this, and even if William tried to exert total control over the situation, there were still many things that were doomed to happen.
Few excited spirit masters threw spears and directed a lot of the bears towards the walls.
They wanted to use the bears' help to clear all the monsters around the clan. 'Dammit! What did they take these bears for? Work slaves or something?' William inwardly cursed while watching the bears approaching the walls.
"Old man, you know what you shall do. Don't let them destroy the walls, it's your clan after all."
For some reason, William started to speak in such a way towards the old patriarch. The latter was feeling more embarrassed by such an attitude and wanted to go all the way down there and teach this rude kid a lesson.
Even if he was the hero of this battle, even if he helped their clan to survive, he shouldn't go overboard and act this arrogantly!
