MMORPG : Rebirth Of The Strongest Guild Master
chapter-760

When the dust finally settled , Max found his right leg to be profousely bleeding from a stray piece of metal that cut him after an explosion. However except for that and some minor bruises he was fine with 72% of his total HP intact.

Death and destruction surrounded him as the 100 man unit that he was a part of at the start was reduced to just 3 men as the other 97 were killed in action.

The tier 2 knight wannabee overseer of his was also dead and the other units around him were not faring much better either.

Yellow and Red HP bars were common amongst the survivors and even the men in the best condition had 15-20% of their total HP depleted.

Max was one of the few with a slightly green HP bar and was truly fortunate to be in such a good shape.

However the troubles for the army of death did not stop at the explosions , as soon after the explosions stopped the escaped defenders of the village , rushed back to swarm the village once more.

Tier 2 and tier 3 forces started to make short work of the red and yellow HP bar Survivors as the army quickly lost 30% of the progress it had made in claiming the village in just 10 short minutes.

Wherever Max saw , men were retreating and fleeing for their lives , as nobody wanted to put their life on the line to stop the charge of demons , and with their backs turned towards the enemy there was naturally no mercy.

" STOP , FACE THE ENEMY , DON'T RUSH BACK " Max shouted as he tried to rally men around him to fight back , however no-one paid any heed to his shouts , as they kept running away.

Max became more and more desperate, this was not how he imagined a war to be! A war was supposed to be glorious, it was supposed to be a struggle to triumph over evil , however the war he was fighting today was just pure despair.

Pulling the splinter of metal from his right leg , Max let out a war-cry as he rushed towards a charging tier 2 demon.

It was a stupid choice , and a fight that was wayy out of his league , nonetheless he gave it a valiant effort as he managed to trade two blows with the demon and give it a -450 damage before being smacked across like a fly and landing 15 meters back crashed into a wall.

-1700 critical damage!

A critical damage marker appeared over max as his HP came close to a dangerous red. A few bones in his chest felt broken and he had no energy to fight his opponent anymore. Even then his eyes still had a fighting spirit as he let go of his swords and clutched his daggers tight , waiting for the opportunity to strike back.

The Demon slowly closed in for the kill , as it raised its scythe to slash Max 's head off . However Max threw his dagger right at this moment hoping to hit his eyes , but a tier 2 opponent was not as slow as a tier 1 opponent and his attack was deflected easily by the demon.

Max closed his eyes and let out a smile thinking ' This is it ' , as he accepted his fate of death. He had gotten a real experience of a war and although it was one short fight , much less than what he hoped it to be , it was a valuable experience of his life.

However the dreaded scythe slash never came , as when he opened his head , was shocked to see the demons head roll off instead of his own as it's lifeless body dropped to the ground.

' Who? ' , Max thought as he struggled to his feet , only to realise that the demon's that were once advancing like there was no tommorow were now running for their lives scared as if they were staring death right in the face.

Max could hear loud cheers from the human camp as he saw the same men that had ran away from the fight moments ago rush back into it with renewed morale .

Although it took him a while to realise what was going on , when it finally clicked , he just let out a grim smile and looked towards the heavens.

There was only one man who could affect a fight in this manner ..... There was no question about it , his brother had arrived in battle !

*********

( Rudra's POV)

Rudra saw the situation deteriorating and decided to personally intervene. For him every human life was an asset and while there was nothing wrong with Belphegor's plan intrinsically, the execution of the plan was plain moronic as the generals leading the plan were utterly garbage.

Under such circumstances the losses on the side of the army of death were already too much to bear for two small villages and would only pile up the more time he took to reach the battlefield.

Rolling out , he only said to karna " I'm going " , as the next moment he used gravity manipulation to take it to the skies as he reached the vicinity of the village in 130 seconds.

As Rudra reached the vicinity he saw swarms and swarms of men retreating , and decided that he needed to motivate them all to return to battle.

Rudra said " MEN , HEED TO ME , I SHAKUNI AM HERE ".

Saying so Rudra used 10,000 sword cuts to kill 10,000 demons at once as heads of tier 2 demons rolled all over the village.

" WITH ME HERE THE SKY WONT FALL. GLORY TO HADES , DEATH TO DEMONS , HAR HAR MAHADEV! ".

Just a simple speach and a show of strength reaffirmed the men that they could indeed pull this off , as the fleeing men stopped running and found a newfound confidence within themselves that with Rudra around the sky would not fall.

They swarmed the village back with newfound confidence, as the tides of the war changed with one simple move of Rudra 's sword.
