Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate

"It seems that aside from the Dryads from East Haven, we are on our own," Lady Avyanna said softly as she looked down on the map on the table.

Barca, and the other Orc Warlords, also looked at the Map with critical eyes. This was a map that shows the entirety of the Western Region of the Wanid Kingdom.

They were now all looking for possible ambush points that they could use in order to thin out the Human army, as soon as their Fortress fell.

Yes, the Orcs were now planning how to decrease the manpower of their enemy as they made a strategic retreat deeper into the Wanid Kingdom.

"As expected, our last stand will be in our Capital City," Barca said as he rubbed his chin. "If it is going to fall, we will make them pay a heavy price for it."

"They will pay a very dear price for it!" Oreg said as he gnashed his teeth in anger.

Tanabur sighed as he crossed his arms over his chest. "I guess we should start preparing our plan for retreat after testing the abilities of our enemies. At the very least, we should kill several thousands of them before we abandon this fortress, right?"

Mogazar nodded his head. "Leave it to me."

As the Orc Warlord that specialized in long range attacks, Mogazar was confident that he could kill many enemies as soon as the battle started.

Baronar, whose main role in the upcoming battle was to help maintain the magical shield of the Fortress, closed his eyes as if he was forming a strategy inside his head.

The atmosphere inside the room was stifling, but Lux simply listened, and watched the reactions of the Orc Warlords as they discussed their strategy.

In the end, the meeting ended with all of them agreeing on using the Fortress as a way to better understand their opponents, which Lux thought was the best thing that they could do at the moment.

Although their enemies had the advantage in numbers, it would not be easy for them to scale the Orc Fortress, now that their strongest warriors were present.

—------

To their surprise, the Haca Dynasty's Army didn't launch an attack on the next day, or the day after that.

Even so, the Orcs remained vigilant as they observed the greatest threat that they had ever faced in their lifetime.

Finally on the third day, Mogazar noticed several war machines moving within their enemy's formation. This was the first time he was seeing such weapons of war, and he deemed that these weapons had arrived just a few hours ago.

'Is this why they didn't attack us right away?' Mogazar thought as he took one arrow from his quiver and nocked it on his bow. 'I better destroy them while I still can.'

Pulling back the string of his bow to the fullest, the Orc Hunter eyed one of the War Machines that were slowly making their way at the front of the enemy's army.

After making sure that his aim was true, the Orc Hunter released his arrow, creating a whistling sound.

Suddenly, the Commander of the Vanguard Army, Ronan, jumped up in the air and blocked the speeding arrow with a golden shield.

A metallic ring resounded in the surroundings as the metallic point of the arrow collided with the shield.

Ronan was blown away by the impact, but he was able to regain his balance mid-air before landing harmlessly on a floating silver shield that materialized out of nowhere.

Mogazar snorted, as he took three arrows from his quiver and nocked them on his bow simultaneously. A moment later, he unleashed these arrows, targeting three war machines that were out of Ronan's reach.

Unfortunately, just like what happened earlier. Several High-Rankers blocked his attack, preventing them from destroying their weapons of war.

Unfazed by his setbacks, Mogazar then chanted a few Orcish words, making a magical arrow appear in his hands.

He planned to use his strongest Area-Wide attack, which he was sure would devastate his enemies, who was preventing him from destroying their War Machines.

"Raining stars from the heavens above, Hit your mark now!" Mogazar channeled his magical energy as he shot his arrow high towards the sky.

"Starfall Mirage!"

The magical arrow exploded in the sky, and created countless rays of light that descended upon the Haca Dynasty's army.

The thousands or Rankers mobilized in order to block all the attacks, but the attack covered a very wide area, which made it impossible to block the attack completely.

Because of this, dozens of Rankers prioritized protecting their Magical Cannons, which they had prepared just for this battle.

The corner of Mogazar's lips curled up into a smile as hundreds of Human soldiers were annihilated by his strongest attack.

His only regret was that he was unable to destroy a single War Machine because the Rankers guarded them all with their lives.

Garret, who stood at the very center of the Human Army's formation, raised his hand.

One of his aides then issued an order, and several soldiers started to blow the horns they were carrying.

"Show these monsters that in the face of humanity, their only option is to submit," Garret stated as all the Magical Cannons started to gather energy.

Mogazar, who was standing on top of the Ramparts became alarmed because the Magical Cannons were still a mile away from their fortress.

No one, aside from him, had the ability to attack their enemy from this distance, and it made him realize why the Rankers prioritized defending their War Machines instead of their soldiers.

"Bastards!" Mogazar hatefully roared as a silhouette of bow and arrow appeared above his head.

If Starfall Mirage was his strongest AOE attack, he was about to unleash his strongest, single-target attack that would obliterate anything it hit.

"It's useless," Garret sneered as he saw Mogazar gather magical energy in order to power up the arrow in his hand. "Accept your fate, Monsters!"

The twenty Magical Canons of the Haca Dynasty all fired at the same time.

Mogazar's eyes became bloodshot as he unleashed his strongest attack in order to destroy one of the cannons, as well as kill as many soldiers as possible.

The Orc Hunter's arrow met the magical cannon ball mid-air and instantly obliterated it. It then continued its trajectory towards one of the Magical Cannons at the speed of sound.

Due to how fast it was, the Rankers failed to react in time, and the arrow hit the Magical Canon destroying it completely.

Mogazar's attack was so strong, that the explosion also killed the soldiers that were manning the cannon.

At that exact moment, the remaining 19 Magical Cannonballs collided with Baronar's barrier.

Before the Orc Hunter could even celebrate his success in destroying one of their enemy's weapon of war, the barrier protecting their Fortress cracked, which made Mogazar's body stiffen.

"Burst Fire!" Garret ordered, and the nineteen cannons fired another one of its magical cannonballs. However, instead of firing just once, the magical cannons fired twice in quick succession before the Beast Core that powered the artifact shattered into several fragments.

The moment the second batch of cannonballs hit Baronar's Barrier, the sound of countless crystal glasses breaking at the same time spread in the surroundings, which made Mogazar hastily order all Orc Hunters to jump off the ramparts to save their lives.

A moment later, the ramparts exploded as the third volley of Magical Cannonballs hit their targets, and destroyed a large chunk of the defensive walls, making Baronar, and the Orc Shamans who were maintaining the barrier, cough out blood due to the backlash they received from the enemy's bombardment.
