Chereads / Nero: Biohazard / Chapter 3 - Siege

Chapter 3 - Siege

Although they were outnumbered, they are also ready to die as all hope is gone with the countless enemies the Rulers have bring with them.

As the undead marches, the marksmen of humanity are also getting ready as they raise their bows up the air. Special forces who have oiled arrow heads have lit their arrows into fire and await orders.

As the undead army marches and getting in range. The commander of the marksmen shouted, "Fire Archers! Fire!"

Rain of fire arrows lit the dark night that swallowed the light. The fire arrows that were resembles fireflies have landed on the dry grasslands were the undead army marches.

The dry corpse of the zombies have easily been caught by the raging fire and slowly burn them. The smell of burned corpse flooded the battlefield.

The clothes of the skeletons have also caught on fire but only some of them have fallen and a lot of skeletons still remain marching.

"Commander! The catapults are ready and the target is in range!" said by the soldier stationed on the catapult at the top of skyscrapers.

"Ring the Bells!" shouted by the commander.

Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!

Then, at the stroke of dark night along the groans of the undead and screams of humanity, the whistle sound came from the raging arrows along the strong wind, the great bells began to toll, once... twice... thrice...

Slow and heavy waves of sounds rolled across the city.

Four...

Five...

Six times the bell rang, like torpid pulse of a bronze giant.

Seven...

Eight...

Nine....

The rolling of bell grew louder with each ring, and the slow heavy roar of the bells were like music to the ears for Nero citizens.

Ten...

Eleven...

Twelve...

At the twelve stroke, the snap of rope could be heard, the snapped rope running through the wooden catapult could be heard. The giant debris has created a thunder like sound echoes through the dark night.

"For Humanity!"

All troops were shouting this phrase as this is one of their greatest weapons.

The giant debris have finally landed on their targets. It made thunder sounds as they hit the ground. It created craters large enough as a small lake. It also annihilated a lot of undead.

Grrrrr....

The Ruler who sent his troops ahead of other groan as its saw its troops getting annihilated by the prey they supposed to hunt.

So it claps its four hands as a signal for its elite skeleton troops at the back to get ready to fire their arrows.

As they March forward, the behind troops started to raise their bows getting ready to fire.

Roar!

The Ruler with four arms and one eye roared as a signal to fire. Thousands of arrows were like infinite rain of death.

"Commander! They have counter attack! A rain of arrows is coming on our way!" shouted by the soldier at the top of marksmen tower.

"Everyone take cover! All ground troops shield-wall!" shouted by commander.

A moment later, the rain of arrows from the skeletons landed on Nero 1st line of defence. Almost all of them were safe, but the ground troops at the shield-wall some got hit and lost their lives.

Smash...

The fallen comrades heads were smash and stab with sword because they can turn into zombies if not killed by smashing or stabbing the head after some time getting killed.

Finally, after a minute of blitz it has stopped. "All ground troops get ready! They are coming near!" said by Nero the leader.

"Oilmen get ready!" said by the commander assigned at the walls.

"Marksmen fire!" shouted by the commander assigned at the Marksmen tower.

Hundreds of arrows rain down towards the zombies and skeletons.

"catapults fire!" said by the commander assign at the skyscrapers.

Giant debris hit the bones of skeletons who are immune to arrows and crashed them into pieces.

"Commander Nero! They are approximately 500 meters away." said by the commander at the top of Marksmen tower.

450 meters away...

400 meters away...

"Ready... Ready..." said by Nero.

250 meters away...

100 meters away...

36 meters away...

"Hold!!!!!" shouted by Commander Nero the leader.

Booooooooooooom!!!!

The zombies collided at the walls and the gate of Nero City the last bastion of humanity.
