Rebirth Of The Strongest Guild Master - Chapter 771

Chapter 771: The March

Chapter 771 The March

( the day of the March )

The elites combat unit was ready mentally and physically for the war. Tensions were naturally high as in the briefing the night before the elders of the guild had told them that the fight today might get really nasty and that everyone needed to be at their best.

Although the elders made it absolutely clear that survival was the first priority, it was also important for the elite legion to create an opening for the rest of the army to enter , which was a critical task.

The other legions on the other hand were much more relaxed than the elite division, as

1) their roles were much less critical than the elite legion

2) their commanders did not approach the task with the same intensity that Rudra did , for them it was just another day at work.

As Rudra and Karna geared up side by side , karna asked Rudra if the men at the other side will comply or not , to which Rudra gave a really interesting reply .

Rudra said ” Ofcourse they will comply karna , they are spineless men with no leadership structure.

I think you understand if a man is solid or not when you see him behaving vainly in public , in this last decade of gaming that we have done together, how many times have we posted our achievements ourselves on the forums?

How many times have you gone on the social media and posted your Olympic gold medals or your shiny equipment?

Is it because we can’t flex?

No , it’s because to us the vain glory of other people’s approval doesnt matter.

However when a man becomes influenced by public opinion and influenced by a crowd mentality where they want to win public approval , like the men who entered hell and pretended to be heroes on the forums , you become a type of man who has a very low baseline and someone who marches on the beats of trends and popularity.

For those types of men , to put their lives on the line for a cause is not something they can intrinsically stomach. Which is why i know for a fact that the glory chasers will obey , as they need to obey to survive , as if they die here there will be no more opportunity to grasp glory “.

Karna put his sword in the scabbard as he heard Rudra’s explanation and said ” I see , well if they don’t obey then don’t worry , your brother karna will punch a hole in the damn wall himself “.

Rudra chuckled as he put his arm around karna and said ” Haha for sure my brother , for sure “.

( The March )

15 tanks rolled out filled with 3 tier 4 generals and a driver in each tank , however none of the elite elders were inside one as they were on foot alongside Rudra leading the infantry troops towards the walls.

Rudra had created a marching formation where a group of 1000 troops had 2 tier 3 mages amongst them , all having learnt the spell called ‘ wind dispell’

It was a spell Rudra had not seen in his previous life but in this one, as one night as he saw a video on the forums of a fight between two miniscule third rate guilds he saw this ingenious technique used by the attacking side to evade arrows.

The wind dispell spell reduced the speed of incoming arrows and messed with their trajectory with a pretty reasonable area of effect , hence having two mages protect a group of 1000 men , Rudra ensured that the damage from incoming arrows could be minimised.

Naturally when the troops came in the range of the arrows , ballistae and javelin machines not all of the incoming damage could be neutralized as despite the marching men being well equipped with shields and armour , there was still about a 100 casualties every 10 seconds.

However this amount was pitiful compared to the humongous size of the first legion as with Rudra present , none of the tier 4 demons Manning the walls had the balls to try and use an AOE spell on the advancing army.

Although there were trenches and holes throughout the plains that made crossing it extremely slow for the tanks. The Alshaikh-1 tanks had a robust and powerful engine that could powethrough all pot holes while Rudra’s object Manipulation got it across the trenches one at a time.

Rudra had practically became a complete warrior with his moveset now , as he controlled an impressive trio of space , time and gravity , some of the most mysterious and powerful forces in the universe.

However the real show had not started yet , as while the elite troops marched on , the dark faction humans Manning the walls waited in anxiety over Rudra ‘s signal .

Rudra was in no rush to give the command as he knew that he could only make the most of the distraction if he had only 500 meters or so to cross with the army , because the three – five minute window that the chaos would bring him was only enough to cover this distance at a full speed.

The elite legion faced it’s first actual difficulty when 7 sandworms appeared out of nowhere and started tearing down the weaker sections of the legion . However 7 shots by the tanks and a few hundered attacks by the tier 4 generals saw the beasts slain in a matter of 4 short minutes.

The elite legion was an well oiled unit that was rigorously trained , unlike the March of the fifth legion where the formations broke as soon as their commander asked them to charge. The elite soldiers marched shoulder to shoulder by holding their lines tight and hence minimizing damage.

As the elites marched closer and closer the dark faction players anxiety grew larger and larger as the orders to attack were being given by their superiors and if Rudra did not give them the order to rebel soon then the demons would realise that they were not complying.

It was a race against time now …
