Vengeance of the Returner

Chapter 211: The war of chaos mainland (8)

The sages were defeated, Ferandel was captured, Feran knights were utterly destroyed. The main variable that played a major role in the war was the dynamism drugs that Raes Henil carefully prepared. They were typical suicide pills that doped the soldiers with adrenaline bringing out the vital force and their whole potential.

Raes Henil didn't waste further time. He had claimed the throne and announced to all of Chaos mainland the very day he won the war. And he didn't wait either. he was still continuously sending forces and the shift in the mana that covers the continent had given him another vantage over the war.

By the time he claimed the throne he already prepared soldiers from his city. Men above sixteen were enrolled and the women who volunteered to participate were enrolled and stationed near portal gates for a greater cause.

In the meantime, there was a man accompanied by a few knights and soldiers was traveling through the ocean current, in order to enter Chaos mainland. It has been months and He didn't know what was happening. Yet, he was in a hurry to enter waiting for the materiality barrier to open the way.

***

The soldiers have settled in the allotted place as per Waltner's direction and Nix released the Outlaws. He gained huge fame unconsciously. A man who won a war and released the soldiers. People may see it as pity but, from his viewpoint, he did it because he was reluctant.

Clearing things up he got himself a room in Waltner's clan house.  At the very moment, he was about to take a rest by removing his armor, the siren of the city alarmed from all different sides.

"Looks like they breached the portal gates."

Waltner said as Nix rushed out of his room in a startle.

It seemed like Waltner was already expecting something like this to be happening. In the backside of the room was the Balcony.

"Follow me."

Waltner said and casually walked towards the Balcony and pointed at a complicatedly constructed building, a teleportation center where the portal gates are located at.

The door of the teleportation center was broke open from which soldiers rushed out.

They were several times larger in number than Nix could ever imagine.

"Some like that could happen?" Nix asked in shock whilst tightening the straps of his armor in a hurry.

"Well, don't you remember the sudden shift in the flow of mana when your army was marching towards us?"

Waltner questioned.

"Yes?" Nix said shooting his eyebrows up. He was beyond shocked and he was tense by the fact that he cannot repel such an army.

They may seem untrained but the number was rather huge and all the soldiers were unprepared and this event was an unexpected variable.

"That could have possibly caused fluctuation in the frequency receptors of the teleportation c... Well, there is no time to explain get ready. We'll have to fight a big swarm of soldiers."

Waltner said tightening his gauntlets as he picked up his sword.

In the next second, Waltner finished his words several people came knocking on his door. Ranrak could surely be in trouble at the same time along with several other cities.

The shift in mana in Chaos mainland had literally caused chaos all around the cities. Though there could be cities that already knew this fact so, they might have shut the portals down.

Barani was an exception, Rae henil would have already known about the fact that they needed reinforcement, and there Waltner sure caused a blunder. 

He didn't mention the thing about the portal gates being active since he had his hands full.

Kalaranga was the only vantage point near them apart from Ranrak. But the gates and walls of cities would be protected for sure and people outside of the wall would be permitted to enter. In conclusion, Nix's team and the soldiers were all trapped at that point.

Swiftly a loud sound occurred and the cause was Tarok and Reegan. They kicked open the door.

"Buddy! Looks like we are in trouble. What should we do now?"

"Wait a minute... I am already anxious about this."

Nix said massaging his temple.

Soon, Cinzia, Camila, Dae Seok, Rebecca, and Yeril entered, flooding the whole room. And all of them possessed weapons.

"Darling, anxious about the disruption?"

Rosalie asked placing her chin on Nix's shoulder appearing from the back.

"Yes..."

"Why don't you ask that good friend of yours?" Cinzia asked.

"Who?"

"The guy who helped in commanding the soldiers."

Camila replied.

"I saw him in the alley he has already started running along with his women."

Rebecca reported.

"Hmm, alright let's just get to where the soldiers are."

It was a good choice. He cannot outright win such a huge swarm. Also, there were a few Outlaws who came running to the Clan house.

"My clan members are here"

Waltner said with a smirk.

The Outlaws were about two hundred in total but those were truly a bunch of loyal ones to Waltner as such Nix can count on them. Moreover, the swarm contained nothing but untrained and inexperienced soldiers.

They did not waste any further time and rushed to the colony of buildings where Soldiers of ranrak were. Surprisingly Nagendra was already commanding and directing them towards the gate.

"Nix!"

Nagendra yelled sitting atop of a Mutino.

"What's the plan man?"

"First climb up!"

He said and slightly signaled Shreya who was at the back and told her to drop the ladder.

Climbing up he turned and saw the soldiers holding their weapons and ready to march towards the enemies.

Soon his clan members climbed onto the Mutino as well.

"Yeril lookout how the situation is."

Yeril began to scout the area approximately to find out the total number of soldiers whilst flying. At the same time, the remnant soldiers steeled their hearts and marched towards the teleportation center.

"There are about fifteen thousand soldiers and there are soldiers who are still flooding out of the gates."

Yeril said to Nix by whispering in his ears she certainly knew this could severely affect the Soldier's morale.

He slightly nodded his head and looked at Nagendra whose face showed the same distress and helplessness similar to himself.

"Nagendra... We have two options. One is to flee and the other is to fight head-on. Fighting head-on wouldn't possibly mean victory and the chances of winning are slim."

Nix explained looking at his eyes.

He knew damn well, this guy has what it takes to boost the morale of the army unlike anyone else. He possesses a private ability that was inherent since he obtained the system also the Eloquence surely helps a lot, unlike Nix who lacks the ability to persuade others.

"I believe we should just flee through the city gate instead of fighting. Don't you know about the dynamism drug Raes Henil had amassed for his soldiers?"

Cinzia questioned.

Nix knew it full well, but he did not want to lose the city he had captured but, sure it is something very impossible.

It was at that moment an Idea surged through his mind.

'Should I steal their uniform and enter amidst them and try to shut off the portal gate?'

He thought it might sound lame considering the fact they'll be commanded by a general or a Commander so, it won't be easy to intrude on the army.

And, there was no time to waste. And so he made one choice which was the only safe and possible way to leave the city with more soldiers alive.

"Soldiers! We have already won this! But, under certain unexpected circumstances, we have to retreat. We will leave this city!"

"Krigon riders and Foot soldiers step up to the Vanguard! You will be the impregnable walls!"

"Archers and mages in the center!"

"Rear will be protected by the remaining foot soldiers!" 

Nix ordered standing in the center whilst pointing men to form in the direction.

There was only one portal gate in Barani and it was straightly opposite the northern gate of the city, a place that has to be unfortunately passed through.

The formation was simple. The formation wasn't impregnable in the least. They clearly had gone on the offense instead of defense. Since defending themselves will get them surrounded.

The army was rather small. Waltner said he'll distract the soldiers since they are of the same faction and allied forces.

"For your family and for yourself, you will have to return. Steel your emotions endure the pain. Raise your shields!"

Nagendra yelled in a loud voice piercing through their hearts.

"You have already won! You can win twice! You can win thrice! You can always win and you have already won! For now, we will return to our families alive!"

"Yes! We will return!"

The soldiers screamed.

"We will return!"

They cried and tapped their spears on the floor as the frontline began marching at immense speed.

Nix was certainly dazed by the boost in morale all though it was cringey for him
