The Imbecile Lord Is Married to Five Beautiful Goddess

chapter-114
Max, who was thrashing around with his double-edged axe, heard a loud bang and an enemy flew towards him like a bullet.
Max sensed danger and without blinking his eye raised his axe and slashed at the thing coming at him.
SHIIIIING!
Reddish liquid fell on him drenching his armour in blood as he sliced the man.
Killing him, he looked around to see Antwan coming toward him with a mocking smile while bashing everything on his part.With a large leap, Antwan landed beside Max and shouted"Maxxyyy!! Were you able to kill any?"
"Or you need this master's help?"Antwan spoke with a large grin on his face.
"In your dreams," Max shouted while slicing his axe.
"Let's compete and see who can kill the most?"Antwan suggested while raising his huge hammer in the air.
"Okay, let's compete even though it's useless because I will be the one to win," Max shouted and snickered.
"Only time will tell," Antwan muttered as both of them took a fighting stance with a serious expression.
They were about to step ahead when they heard a loud clicking sound.'Huh! What's this?'Both of them thought at the same time.
Followed by the large clinking sound, a chain of clinking sounds started to ring.
CLINK!CLINK!!
Clicking sounds reverberate everywhere followed by panicking cries.
"Aaaaahhhhhh!
"Arghhhh!"
Wild screams started to emerge from all around which frightened everyone for a moment.
They looked around to see that the metallic collar in the vest of Amidon's soldier burst and a darkish greenish gas rose which was directly inhaled by the Amidon soldiers.
Max looked at the scene with a frown and his eyeballs widened with horror.
"No, it can't be that." Max almost screamed while thinking about the horrifying scenarios that were going to come next and it made his whole body shiver and the hairs on his skin stood up in fright.
Max along with other Nevan soldiers' expressions distorted looking at the changes happening around them.
Mordek, who was keeping an eye all around, frowned and shouted"Step back and retreat to a safe distance."
"Don't inhale the gas," Mordek commanded.
Most of the soldiers of Nevan guessed what was going on and closed their noses with one hand and ran back while leaving the soldiers of Wright clueless about it.
"Huh! What happened?"
The soldiers under Frank's command on the left flank noticed the changes but didn't understand what was going on and dozed off for a moment which proved quite harmful.
The squire rank from their sides who were at the front inhaled a bit of the dark greenish gas and felt a tingling sensation crawling from their back.
Their vision became murky with their eyes becoming bloodshot, veins bulged all over their body and their senses became dull followed by a sudden outburst of shearing pain.
"Ahhhhhhhhh!" They screamed and fell to their knees.
As the inhaled gas went inside their system, the mana inside their body started to churn and wriggle in their vessel.
It felt as if something was forcing its way down a rough narrow path which caused too much pain.
"Will…..Will...."
"What happened to you?" One of the soldiers called out his friend's name and tried to lift his friend who was in pain but as he got closer and tried to lift Will, he was beaten by Will.
"Arghhh!" He groaned in pain as Will punched him and bit his hand like a mad hound and jumped on him while trying to pin him down.
After pinning him, he started to bite his friend to death.
This scene is repeated everywhere on the left flank as their own allies lost control and tried to take their friend's life by biting and scratching them like animals.
Christina, seeing the situation getting out of hand, suddenly intervened and raised her sword in the air and slashed.
A golden dazzling light shot from her sword which rose high up in the sky and divided into many parts and shot toward the frenzied people.
Swish!Swish!Swish!Swish!
The golden light changed its appearance into a sword and slammed down on the frenzied people and threw them away.
"Retreat quickly, gather here."
"Leave those who have gone crazy. Don't lose your life due to foolishness."Christina shouted and jumped towards Mordek and asked him to explain what was going on and how he knew about it.
Mordek took a deep and heavy breath and explained everything to Christina and Frank as their forces started to retreat while the scream of Amidon's forces along with their soldiers filled the vast land.
" Wait! Let me confirm one thing."Christina asked as her attention went to a particular point.
"You said Alex and his squad cleared everything off. Doesn't that mean they might have also inhaled some of the gases?"
"So weren't they affected by this poisonous gas?" Christina asked, raising her brows.
"No, they weren't affected. As far as I was told, it takes time to affect."Mordek spoke and further explained, "Moreover, weaker ones get affected first and unawakened ones are not affected by this."
"But by witnessing things here, I am 100 percent sure that the gas they are currently using now is more potent than the ones His Highness has encountered."
"Certainly the speed of affecting has gone up which might prove quite disadvantageous for us if we inhaled it," Mordek spoke while rubbing his chin.
Christina's expression became stiff on hearing Mordek words and a deep sigh escaped from her lips.
That's why one can't put down his or her guard for a minute.
Just a few moments ago, they were in quite a favourable position and the tide of the war had shifted again.
Previously, Christina had thought that they would win the war before sunrise but now since they have to kill each one of these people who had lost their sense and become monsters, it will certainly take too much time and the soldiers are going to be worn out by fighting these maniacs who don't even feel pain.
Moreover, the harmful gas is turning everyone in her troops crazy.
It was fortunate that Nevan soldiers knew about this otherwise they wouldn't even know how they died under the poisonous gas.
Christina closed her eyes for a moment, thinking about the next step.
She calculated various possible ways to counter things.
'Since, it's gas. It might work.'Christina muttered as her golden eyes sparkled and shone dazzlingly.
"Mages use wind spells to pull out the poisonous gases in one place."
"Create a tornado or something similar and collect the gas in one place and then cast wind spells and lift it to the sky."
We will first get rid of this gas."
"But before that create a layer of mudwall before us to prevent these frenzied humans from coming here."
"Anyone below mid Disciple rank stays back and leaves the front formation to stronger ones."
"Meanwhile archers take your position."
"Uncle Mordek and Frank, prepare yourself to follow me."
"We take care of the ones who tried to break through."
"Everyone try to stop your breathing as long as you can and close your nose and wait until the mages get rid of the gas."
Christina gave a series of commands in quick succession while deciding to fight from the front.
