Killian and the reinforcement army set off for the front lines. The battlefield of war of races is very different from normal battlefields. It doesn't have any fix front.
The whole dungeon floor is shaped like a round circle. There are dozens of resource points in the middle of the dungeon. The nine kingdoms surrounded those resource points.
And the kingdoms fought for the control over these resource points. The more resource points they control, the stronger they will become.
There are various resource points that could provide the owner with food or raw materials. For example the resource points like croplands can provide food for the citizens and resource points like mines can provide the kingdom with materials for weapons and armors, increasing their military power.
Demi-human kingdom control a total of three resource points before. However in the past few days, they acquired a new resource point.
The other kingdoms sent multiple waves of attacks to this resource point to pressure the demi-human kingdom. No kingdom want their enemy to become stronger. Even now they are facing attacks from various forces.
There is no friends in the war. Every kingdom fight for their own benefits. Countless lives were lost in the chaotic war.
Now some strong kingdoms are attacking the newly acquired resource point of demi-human kingdom. Killian's job is to join and reinforce that resource point defense.
The reinforcement army finally arrived at the newly acquired resource point. It was an ore mine. There is a small defensive camp set up here guarded by demi-humans.
Since the demi-humans recently got this, there is no solid defense set up yet. Also the other kingdoms did not want the demi-human kingdom to gain another resource point and sent many attack waves to pressure them.
Thus the demi-humans were having a hard time constructing the solid defense.
Naha step forward and talk with the commander of the camp. The commander's expression is not good after looking at the reinforcement army. The number is too little.
He had requested reinforcements from the main army. However the main army only sent a thousand soldiers? He felt like he's being scammed.
A thousand soldiers can die in just a day when the other kingdoms invaded them. They need more troops. If they were elites, it will be fine. But the ones that Carnoal sent are bottom tier soldiers. They are no more than common fodders in the chaotic war.
The commander sighed and assign them to different positions. Killian was in the back lines since he was a mage. His job is to provide support with his magic spells.
'Ding ding ding!"
Killian heard the sound of alarm. It is the sign of the enemy attack. The demi-human soldiers quickly armed themselves and rush towards the front. He also followed them to the front.
Killian saw a massive army of orcs surrounding the camp. They let out terrifying growls and their war cries sounded through the whole place.
The demi-humans are clearly outnumbered. Not only that, the individual strength of demi-human soldiers and orc warriors are also differ.
The equipments of the orcs are way better than the demi-humans. One orc warrior can properly take on three to four demi-human soldiers. Seeing the massive army, a cold sweat flow through the back of demi-human commander.
However for Killian, the massive orc army in front of him is a walking treasure trove.
"So many essences."
Killian's eyes flickered with excitement. With this many enemies, he can finally make more chaos units. Its been a long time since he made one chaos fiend.
Since he lacked money, his army is not increasing anymore. However now the whole dungeon floor is filled with life. He would be a fool if he doesn't collect these essences lying in front of him.
"Everyone get in your position!"
The demi-human commander shouted. The soldiers form a defensive line around the camp. However their morale is low. There is clearly difference in both strength and number between the two army.
The commander secretly cursed Carnoal. The reason he requested reinforcements was because of this kind of situations. However Carnoal only sent a thousand low level soldiers.
There is no way they can defend this attack successfully. They don't have enough troops. The situation is dire. The commander gritted his teeth.
At that time an orc with a huge body came out from the orc army. He was riding a giant dire wolf and wields a huge axe.
Behind him were hundreds of orcs riding dire wolves. They are the infamous orc wolf riders.
The wolf riders are calvary forces of orc race that feared by many. They are fast and great at ambush. Their raw strength is slightly higher than a human knight riding a war horse.
"I am Rasnar. 'Wolf Champion' of the great orc kingdom. Surrender yourselves and we will spare your lives."
Rasnar's words sounded.
"The orc kingdom actually sent the wolf champion, Rasnar! Are they trying to conquer this whole resource point?"
The wolf champion, Rasnar is a well known figure among the kingdoms. He is one of the pillars of the orc kingdom.
His position in the orc kingdom is the same as Carnoal in the demi-human kingdom. However because of the strength difference between the kingdoms, Rasnar is even stronger than Carnoal.
Sending him to pressure this resource point is like killing a chicken with a giant axe.
Normally pillars like Carnoal rarely leave very far from their kingdom. Their duty is mostly to guard their home. However as a powerful race, the orc kingdom can afford to send their pillar to outside battles.
The objective of the orc kingdom is clear. They are planning to take this resource point for themselves.
They would immediately construct a stronghold after they drive out the demi-humans. With the help of a pillar like Rasnar, they don't have to care about the other kingdoms attacking. Even if someone like Carnoal came, Rasnar doesn't fear.
"Commander what do we do? Should we surrender?"
A demi-human soldier asked the commander dryly. The morale of the whole army is already low after they saw Rasnar.
If they surrender, they might live. But they will become prisoners of war and slaves in the orc kingdom. As a different race in another kingdom, the lives of the slaves are very harsh.
No matter what happen to them, nobody would care. There are people that would rather die than becoming a slave. As a commander, he cannot possibly surrender without a fight.
However the defensive camp is rather weak. It was not a fortified stronghold. They have to fight the orcs in the open. But fighting this massive orc army head on is a straight up suicide. The demi-human army is clearly outnumbered and even the 'Wolf Champion' is here.
