“Pom—!”
A black Giant wielded a huge Hammer and crushed the Eternal Fire troop formation into disarray like a wolf deep into a herd of sheep. He used his brute force to destroy everything in his path.
TakeASpearHit looked at the black Giant swinging his Hammer and turned to say to his companions, “I think our chance to become famous has come. Arthur used a trap to kill a Large Lizard and became famous. If I can kill a Giant on the battlefield, I will be prominent!”
“You are out of your mind. How do you kill the Giant? By using the GM account?”
SealHeadLingChong was knocked to the ground by a red-skinned monster after he finished speaking. Dragonborn pulled him up quickly.
“What do you know?” TakeASpearHit shouted excitedly,
“Did you see the single eye of the Giant? A monster like him has a weakness in the eye. I can’t remember in which fable, but Kratos killed a single-eyed Giant using this method! My plan is simple!”
TakeASpearHit pointed at the distant Giant and shouted, “When the Giant smashes down his Hammer, I’ll use my acute senses to predict the Hammer’s location. Then I’ll climb up to his head via the Hammer and give the single eye a fatal stab! Then I’ll become the battlefield hero.”
Dragonborn and SealHeadLingChong were puzzled after TakeASpearHit finished shouting.
“Are you daydreaming?” SealHeadLingChong asked.
“D*mn, you have no aspirations. I’ll do it alone!”
TakeASpearHit yelled himself hoarse as he charged at the Giant.
The gamers’ formation was close to the formation of the NPCs in order to maintain a consistent front line. There was only a small gap between the two formations.
Crossing this gap became the first obstacle to TakeASpearHit completing his plan.
Before they thought of how to solve the problem, tens of Magic Cannon shells flew in an arc above their heads and landed.
“Boom—!”
It was another series of carpet bombings that killed all the monsters in the gap.
“Take action now!” TakeASpearHit yelled and bashed through the red-skinned monsters and gamers in front of him. He brought along the gaping Dragonborn and SealHeadLingChong as they charged forward.
The Eternal Fire deputy commander, Fishballs, fired a long-barreled gun continuously at the Black Giant. If the Airship at the forefront hadn’t fired its cannons and decimated the enemy at their rear, the army of Eternal Fire, whose formation was in disarray, would be suffering massive casualties.
“Brace yourselves! Don’t let that Ancient Giant move forward!”
Fishballs felt three figures dart past him just as he finished yelling. He noticed the green words above their heads. They were Gnome warriors from Eternal Kingdom!
“Give way. That Giant’s mine!”
TakeASpearHit held his Short Sword with determination and charged towards the Giant.
Fishballs was stunned. Before he could stop them, the three Gnomes had dashed forward.
“Wait! What are you doing?” Fishballs yelled after the back views of the three Gnomes.
TakeASpearHit turned his head and struggled to give an evil smile, but the Gnome’s anatomy didn’t allow him to do that. He said calmly, “We’re killing the Giant, you imbecile NPC.”
Fishballs was dumbstruck as he witnessed the Gnome dash at the Giant.
TakeASpearHit grasped his Short Sword tightly and dashed towards the raised Hammer.
Now!
TakeASpearHit braced against the falling Hammer and was crushed flat.
“Shucks! This silly dude!” SealHeadLingChong cursed and saw a Gnome run up the Hammer.
Dragonborn held onto the edge of the Hammer and was lifted up together with the Hammer.
That sudden acceleration almost made Dragonborn lose his grip.
The Black Giant with a single eye felt something on his Hammer. He lifted his head to take a look.
Dragonborn took the chance and released his grip. He fell straight towards the eye of the Giant.
The blade of his Short Sword impaled deeply into the Giant’s eye.
“Ao—!”
The horrific screams of the Giant shook the entire battlefield. The Giant backed up two steps and fell backwards to the ground.
Dust flew up and obscured visibility as Dragonborn stood in a daze upon the Giant’s face.
“Waaaagh—!”
The Orcs of Eternal Fire broke into wild cheering. They looked in awe at Dragonborn.
It wasn’t the time to celebrate as more and more red-skinned monsters flooded towards them.
On the distant Airship, the Gnome commander shouted to the Gnome Magicians on the deck, “Quick! Infuse Mana! Prepare for the next volley of the Magic Cannons!”
“Captain! The Magic Cannons have exceeded their load!” one of the Gnome Magicians shouted.
“Captain! Forty degrees to the port side! We discovered the enemy commander!” a Gnome that was perched in a crow’s nest yelled to the commander below.
The Gnome commander took out a telescope and looked in said direction. A tall and burly Devil that was corrupted by the Ancient Gods had become more devious. There were decaying blisters with dripping pus on his green skin. He held a huge Trident and focused his Mana as he aimed the weapon at the Airship’s location.
“Full rudder on the starboard—!” the Gnome commander screamed. Soon, the command was relayed with repeated shouting.
“Full rudder on the starboard—!”
“Full rudder on the starboard—!”
The Airship started to dip and turn starboard with the help of the tailfin and the differential angles of the huge wings at the ship’s body.
The corrupted Devil threw out the fatal Trident.
The Trident was infused with gray Mana as it hurtled towards the Airship. It impaled itself into the body of the Airship that was trying to change direction. The gray Mana started to contaminate the entire Airship.
Consecutive screams were heard from the Airship as it dipped in the direction of the gamers’ location.
“The NPC Airship is crashing! Find cover!” the gamers shouted to warn the rest.
In this situation, it was difficult to dodge the crashing Airship. Within seconds, the huge Airship crashed at a corner of the battlefield.
The crash of the Airship created a shockwave of wood fragments and rolling dust that engulfed the battlefield. It looked like a doomsday scenario.
The rolling dust engulfed the gamers and the Ancient Gods army alike.
Arthur’s elite team was sent flying by the crash impact. Then there was a gray mist shrouding their vision. Arthur inhaled and felt his lungs choking. He coughed violently.
When he stood up, he threw down his shield and covered his nose. In the gray mist, a creature that emitted “Hoo loo loo” sounds charged at him.
Arthur swung his sword and slashed the red monster, which fell to the ground. Another figure dashed towards him at the side.
“Gosh! This is exhilarating! This special effect is so awesome!”
That was the soiled and dusty looking NotWearingPants.
Arthur thought he would look as dirty as NotWearingPants.
“Don’t dust yourself. The Airship’s gone. Our battle plan has failed.”
Arthur frowned. It was the NPC Airship that suppressed the Ancient Gods army. Without its suppressive firepower, it was close to impossible to kill the enemy commander.
“Arthur, the Airship crashed at our side. Can it be…” NotWearingPants asked abruptly, “… that we’re supposed to restart the Airship? Is this a Battle Campaign Plot Mission?”
“Pom—!”
