Chapter 196 - The First Clash (3)

Hearing the excited Crimson Princess, Randy looked at Crimson Cloud Kingdom's army. Rosikh told them they were acting as reinforcement with total 50.000 troops with 20.000 troops from Vanguard Battalion.

He wondered what about the army which stationed in this border? The beast horde about a million, then what about the main force? Could the Crimson Cloud Kingdom's army hold this border?

"The scout reported, the beast horde comprises the level 180 Common Beast and level 200 Uncommon Beast, it's time to harvest EXP," Audrey licked her lips as her eyes glowing with excitement.

"Aren't you worry at the least?" The princess' excitement really made Randy wonder. It was a war, and she didn't feel worried at the least. Instead, she was so excited; it was like she could not wait to jump in the war.

"Worry?" Crimson Princess snorted contemptuously at Randy, "We, Crimson Cloud Kingdom, Never lose, war against this brainless beast since the Crimson Cloud Kingdom founded. These beasts are our resource, resource for us to grow stronger for As…"

Crimson Princess stopped, she snorted at Randy before focusing her attention at beast horde was about 10 miles ahead of them.

"For what?" Randy could not help but curious. But Crimson Princess ignored Randy, pretending heard nothing.

Randy also not insist. At least there was a word which caught his attention, resource. The Crimson Cloud Kingdom never regarded this as equal war, but it was a resource for them. Suddenly, he was struck by a sudden realization.

'No wonder King Andreas agreed to let his children joined the Vanguard Battalion,'

But he caught her words about harvesting EXP. Indeed, in the front was EXP, but the amount of the beast was too many. Also, even though the beast horde only consisted of Common Grade and Uncommon Grade, but the level beast was high, twice higher than him.

Suddenly, Randy felt the ground was vibrating while sound a "Dump Dump" could be heard. He looked at the front and the beast horde was launching the attack.

"Get Ready!" The Vanguard Battalion's General shouted.

Clank! Clank! Clank!

The troops drew their sword up while Audrey took out her crimson long spear which was glowing with a faint crimson light. Not only the spear, but her armor was also glowing with crimson light.

Crimson set armor, Crimson Spear, and all of these were glowing with crimson light. Not only Crimson Princess, the other troops' armor and weapon also glowed with crimson light.

'This Crimson Cloud Kingdom really obsessed with the crimson color,'

Looking at the others were drawing their weapon, Randy also pulled out his Infernal Blade from his back. Actually, the most eye-catching in the Vanguard Battalion. Two long swords on his back, black armor with orange stripes, and his cloak with a smiling emoji in it which made him the most eye-catching compared to his friend.

Even though his friends were wearing blue armor, green armor, and black clothes, but the surrounding people were looking at Randy cloak with a strange glint in their eyes.

Randy was used being stared with those kinds eyes, so he ignored them as he held the Infernal Blade with his two hands, the main Infernal Blade on his right hand while the sub Infernal Blade in his left hand.

From the three, Evan and David who had fought, but how strong they were; it was still unknown. But this was the right time for Randy to gauge how strong they were, including the people from Crimson Cloud King.

Just as he was getting ready, waiting for the General's order to charge forward, he heard Shana's voice traveled into his ears.

"Uncle, why are you showing you rank? It's only the lowest rank but you are so gutsy to show off your rank,"

Randy looked at his top before letting out wryly smile, "Do you think I want to show off that rank? It's because of my status as trialer, I cannot hide it,"

He asked how to hide his hologram rank, but Audrey told him he could not as it was to identify him as trialer. With that, Randy gave up to hide the annoying rank on the top his head.

"Tsk, who said that lie? Of course, you can hide your rank. You only need to give an order to Ascension System," Shana grumbled.

Randy looked at the excited princess, indicating it was the Crimson Princess who told him so. He didn't expect the princess would lie to him, even though she always told him everything he wanted to know, but looked like he could not believe Audrey entirely. It was even possible what she told to him, all she told him was a lie.

Randy sighed at this before ordering the Ascension System to hide his rank. He wanted to tell the other three, but he didn't have a chance to as the Vanguard Battalion's General released his order out.

"Charge!"

"Charge!"

With that, the troops charged forward with the General and Major General in the lead. Randy also followed along, but of course, the troops were charging in orderly at the same speed.

Randy was not sure how strong the level 180 Common Grade beast and level 200 Uncommon Beast, so he just stayed near the excited and fearless princess, lest something bad happened to her later amidst the chaos of war, at least it was what in his thought until the army clashed with the beast.

With her crimson spear in her right hand and a fist on her left hand, she was running amuck amidst the sea of the beast. She charged directly toward the center of the beast horde. On her face, plastered a happy laugh and excitement laugh.

Randy stunned for a while. The mischievous and the beautiful princess turned into madwoman which slaughtered the beasts as she laughed. He immediately chased after the crazy princess into amidst the beast horde.

If you looking at the top, it was like a crimson bullet which penetrated a black wall. From the top, the 20.000 people of Vanguard Battalion were like a crimson bullet which shot toward the million beast horde.

But the Vanguard Battalion was fearless as kept charging forward. They didn't worry if they would get surrounded by the over million beast horde as a hundred thousand the Crimson Cloud Kingdom from behind was also charging toward the beast horde.

Meanwhile, Randy was reserved amidst the beast horde which was unusual for him. He only killed a leftover beast which had not killed by Audrey. There was the only beast surrounded them as the crazy princess kept advancing recklessly.

Basically, both separated from the Rosikh's squad, but soon Randy found that the beast was not different much as he could kill them easily despite its high level. Also, the EXP from killing the beast was pretty good, he only needed to kill 7 to 10 beasts to get 1 percent EXP.

Soon, not only the princess was becoming crazy about killing the beasts, but her private guard was also becoming crazy. Randy didn't even care about the Crimson Princess' safety as he realized the beast horde posed none threat toward the princess.

Randy chugged down a Rare grade Stamina Potion and slaughtered the beasts.

"Horaaa horaa horaaa," Randy shouted as he kept swinging his Infernal Blade. Sometimes, there was an explosion caused by his sword, sometimes there was a flame pillar shot toward the sky.

Looking at Randy which fallen into the same state as her, Crimson Princess even became more excited. She immediately caught toward Randy.

...

Meanwhile, Vanguard Battalion reached the center of the beast horde after half an hour charged and the beasts kept swarming toward the Vanguard Battalion.

But soon, there was a change in the Vanguard Battalion. The Vanguard Battalion was split into two, half of the Vanguard Battalion kept charging while the other half was charging back.

Afterward, the Vanguard Battalion split again into four... into eight... into sixteen…

The Vanguard Battalion kept splitting until split into a squad which consisted a hundred people per squad. After splitting into a squad, the squad spread in all directions.

Of course, from many squads, there was a squad which only consisted of 98 people as the two people of that squad had gone mad and charged all over direction without caring about the formation.
