Chapter 9 - Chapter 9: Battle for Spring Hills Part B…

As the Red Snow fell to the ground, bodies continued to pile until under 1/3 of each Army was alive and fighting. Solus's Instinct had fully taken over their minds.

-Kill, Survive, Conquer-

That's the sequence constantly playing inside of their heads, it's a thirst they can't resist. The leadership didn't want to resist, instead they went with the flow and slaughtered many as they got entangled with each other...

Most beings wouldn't be aggressive in situations where they're outnumbered, most would try and counter and survive until help shows up. But, the War Master wasn't cut from that part of the cloth, he would be more aggressive than he was before. No provocations, no fakes, or no taunts, only a state of aggression...

-Clang... Clang... Ssshwwwwiiiinnnggg.. Clang... Clang... Clang... Sssshhwwiinnggg... Clang...

He was peppering Oligwom & Drigom with many slashes and swipes, (Clang... Clang.... Clang... Clang.... Ssssshhhhwwwwiiiinnnngggg...) one after another... The brothers were pushed into only playing defense, waiting for War Master to tire out, (Clang... Clang... Clang... Clang... Clang... Clang... Clang... Ssssslllppp...)but that was a very dangerous game as he would not tire but one lapse of judgement and War Master sliced through the chest plate of Drigom...

(Drigom) Good thing he sliced my armor and not touched any of my skin or else I would've suffered the same fate as Hureglom...

-Ssssss fffftttpppp- His chest plate was smoking, and War Master noticed...

(Drigom) It's corrosive poison?? This Druid is truly a War Master. At this rate it will keep eating away until it gets to my skin, but he isn't letting up. Those blades are dangerous but his battle aptitude is his most dangerous asset...

It would only take War Master to land one slice and it would be over, he pressed Drigom while dodging swings from Oligwom's Battle Ax...

-Shhhwwwwiiinnnggg- Pppppffffttt-

War Master had swung his blade at Drigom but this time Drigom would not give ground and instead move in one step within his impact range. Catching War Master's arm mid swing and embraced him closer to the body with a bear hug so tight War Master couldn't move a muscle in his body except his neck and head...

-Hhhhhhmmmmm.... Ggggrrrrfffftttt...

War Master would head-butt Drigom in an attempt to force the Dwarf to let him go. But it didn't do anything to faze Drigom...

-Seismic-Intervention-

Drigom spread his base, then squatted down to gain power and with the War Master firmly in his grips he jumped to a height of ten feet into the air and rolled to the top of War Master so his weight along with the momentum would pound War Master...

-TTTTTHHHHHOOOOOMMMMMM-

They slammed into the ground causing a small crater upon impact. The snow around them seemed to stop mid-flight and decided to float in the air for a bit, but that was due to the back blast of the impact. Which affected the snow up to forty feet in the air...

Drigom couldn't finish him off as his armor was about to be breached by the corrosive poison. He jumped back to remove his armor in a hurry, but one of his shoulder latches was damaged in the altercation and it would give him problems...

He finally snatched it off of his chest and tossed it out in front of him, as it left his hands it was sliced open by one of War Master's Blades. He had jumped back up and caught Drigom off guard...

-Sssssshhhhhwwwwwiiiiinnnnngggg-

War Master's timing was perfect, too soon and Drigom would've noticed him coming out of the crater. Too late and he would've been welcomed by the blade upon showing his head. The old War Master had to feel for this moment, he had to know it down to his core that this was the best time to go for a kill...

-Ffffffffffttttttttpppppp-

-Hhmmm- Ggggggrrrrrraaaaaaoooooorrrrr-

-Ppppllllummmffpp- The severed arm of the War Master falls to the ground and blood splatters out. War Master grabbed his shoulder writhing in excruciating pain...

War Master hadn't accounted for the after effects of the slam administered by Drigom to have a lasting effect...

As his next slice would've surely put an end to the Dwarf, he had an internal tremor the moment before he swung and he was delayed, Hureglom took advantage and sliced off his arm and stood between War Master and the armor-less Drigom...

War Master Grunted in pain for a bit, then slowly raised his head and his eyes began to blacken, the blood slowed down and then stopped..

-Wwwwwhhhooooossssshhh- Solus flies in, knocks War Master down, and steps on him until he goes limp then tosses him to the side. Looks in the eyes of Drigom & Hureglom and tell them...

(Solus Rui'N) Go, Kill Waep & Gravf.. Help Frosst. Tonight we shall feast upon the flesh of our enemies..

Flame Sister come here.. Your fourth Ryder is your connector right? (Connector- Translator, communicator)

(Flame Sister) This is it right, this is what you need me for because you know I am the only person who the Ryders pledge loyalty too.. It's a blood oath you know, so I guess I'll be around for a while.. Yes, he's on his way..

(Solus Rui'N) He will be my connector to this realm, my voice is being stripped as we speak, that is my price for breaking the taboo.. A very small price to pay compared to the immense power I've gained..

But I feel a hibernation is needed before I can be complete. The end of this war is very near. Prepare for the finale as the end of the Druids is looming right over the corner. But, you should be pleased to know that the War Master will be part of my War Council... Crrgghg.. Cccrrgghh.. Squawk!! Squawk!! Mmmrrrmmhhh..

(Flame Sister) His name is Squallo and he's ready to serve you.

(Solus) You won't be able to utilize him anymore as his duty will solely to convey my wishes.

(Master Gravf) It's just us two left from the leadership Waep. We must find a way to kill all these enemies here...

(Madam Waep) Yes we must, there's no turning away now...

-Rancid Bloom-

Madam Waep raised both her arms and the ground beneath their feet started to shake and tremble. Gigantic carnivorous flowers arose from the soil and started snatching up those surrounding Waep & Grafv...

-Xeno Gamma-

A green light wave flashed from the tips of Master Grafv's hands and sparked each plant's stem. The light wave would shoot throughout the plant causing it to wither and die, instantly killing those inside of the plants struggling to get out...

The Two remaining Druids would fight for their lives as Sir Alon, Sir Frosst, Drigom, & Oligwom pushed the issue to eradicate them both...

To be continued...

Part C. Coming soon...
