Rebirth Of The Strongest Guild Master - Chapter 449
Chapter 449: War (11) : The Emperor Has Not Yet Fallen
Cervantez shrugged off the multiple muscle spasms he was currently feeling as he dragged his ragged body towards the battlefield. But the moment he laid his eyes on the current situation he wished that he would not have gotten up .
The undead were running wild on the battlefield , supported by 5 massive golems , they were troubling the soldiers from his kingdom. While most of the undead were the once killed Hazelgroove army soldiers.
Cervantez knew at that moment that it was Aman’s doing , but as a father he was just not ready to accept that fact. Although he was always harsh on Aman , the fact remained that he loved him dearly , and even after sending him to exile , cerventez always cared for him. Hoping that he could redeem himself someday .
Even though he descended in the battlefield as an even more progressed necromancer than before , Cervantez was only proud of his accomplishments , thinking of letting everything be bygone and even gain heat with the Church by letting him back into the kingdom.
However his dreams were cut short . His son had not changed , he was still harming his people , as an Emperor Cervantez could not let it happen , however as a father it tore his heart.
Putting his face between his hands , cerventez sat down for a minute , trying to gather his thoughts and make his resolve about ending this for once and for all , by giving Aman what he deserved ….. Which was Death !

( Meanwhile Rudra’s POV )
The moment the 5 giant golems entered the battlefield , Rudra became alert. These creatures were not stone golems , making them light and comparitively more mobile . They could actually avoid attacks instead of taking it all like a tank.
However they still had incredibly high amounts of HP , and were perfect to break enemy lines and give an opening for troops.
Rudra knew that he needed to get rid off the golems first before he could continue his assault on the undead . However the problem was that he did not have the means to deal with all 5. The strength of the golems was their defence and the weakness was their lack of offensive capabilities . Unlike stone golems who had their massive weight to rely on to crush people , bone golems were weaker in offense. Meaning that with sustained damage they would fall .
Rudra decided that it was best to slowly retreat and keep damaging the golems from distance and let them fall below 30% before engaging in a charge.
But the problem was the undead. The brainless creatures just kept swarming the front lines irrespective of Rudra advancing or retreating.Making it hard for the elites to retreat safely. Also the golems speed made it hard for the elites to really create distance , which made the plan to retreat pointless.
Rudra knew that if the golems tanked the damage for the other troops , then the thin front line of the Elites would crumple very soon. However with retreating out of the option , only holding the lines was an option. Unfortunately he was too far out of the city for Medivh to provide any sort of protection , like he did with the dragons.
Rudra really did not want to use his second and last solar beam on defeating a single golem , knowing that the war was still not over , and unknown dangers lurked untill it was.
However against the golems he felt hard pressed. Even his own sword slashes just created a hp loss of -1500 against the bone golem , against a massive pool of 1.5 million hp points. Much less the normal elites who could barely dish out 200. Which was a huge issue.
In the next 2 minutes a lot of Elites found themselves in red HP bar and a few even died , as the advance of the bone golems caused a dissarray in the front lines formation , leaving troops open to assault by the undead.
Thankfully Patricia and two other senior tier 4 paladins stepped up looking at the situation and started to hold back 3 bone golems. While Rudra along with his 2000 strong mana legion held off one . And Neatwit and Karna inside Yume’s buff range held off the last one.
It was a uphill battle for everyone , as even the tier 4 warriors could only shave off a maximum of 6000 hp with their normal moves and coming soo deep into the war , they were already on reserve stamina barely having enough gas in the tank to keep fighting , much less dish out the big moves.
However at this moment , five scarlet blue sword slashes descended from the sky , splitting the bone golems in half. When one looked above , they could see the emperor who was calmly standing on what appeared to be a purple cloud . As a voice boomed across the battlefield , which was Cervantez’s as he said ” Don’t worry , the emperor has not yet fallen “.

Cheers rained amongst the troops , as there was newfound energy to fight. The emperor was with them? With him around what was there to fear anymore?
Virtually , with Mazikeen gone , the route of the enemy forces was only a matter of time for Cervantez . But with him barely having any energy left he was already stretching himself trying to move his upper body.
Although he looked cool standing on a magical floating device. The truth of the situation was that he could not even move his legs properly . Should he actually try to run around in the battlefield currently he would probably stumble after taking 5 steps. That’s how sore his muscles felt to him. However unwilling to stay down while his people were in trouble , and unwilling to show his moment of weakness , Cervantez stood high in the skies as steady as mount Tai , giving hope to win to the people.

( Meanwhile Aman )
Aman stopped conjuring the darkness blast spell , as he looked disturbed.
The connection between him and the bone golems was cut off . He knew immediately that the only one who could take 5 of them out in an instant , together was only cerventez.
Inspite of him gaining immense strength today , he was not tier 5 and unfortunately hence not strong enough to survive a confrontation with his father.
Aman felt a chill run down his spine thinking that his father probably figured out that he was upto no good , and did not rule out the possibility of him coming for his life.
At first Aman thought about fleeing , but a voice deep inside his consciousness told him a crazy idea … An idea soo ridiculous that on any other day Aman would have not rushed into it. But drunk on the feeling of rapidly gaining powers by absorbing someone else’s powers and being uncertain about his very father taking his life , a dark thought creeped inside Aman’s mind.
The thought being ‘ Can i steal the power of Lucifer ? ‘.
Staring at the giant stone tower , Aman wondered if he could take this opportunity to steal the powers from the lord of darkness himself!
