Clash

As the dust settles the Mammoth stood tall perfectly unharmed.

"What do we do now captain?" The numerous reserved troops are becoming restless again. They started ignoring their squad leader and looking at Arthur for answers.

Seeing all this Arthur look at his fellow Sergeant apologetic. 'Me and my big mouth' he thought.

[It's no problem kid, as long as the soldier can maintain their morale, we can turn a blind eye.] Arthur received numerous well-thought messages coming from his fellow sergeant but he also received messages from hot-blooded people who can't stand his antics.

Arthur decided to ignore these individuals and continue along with his act.

"No worries, let them come. 900." Arthur said in a very calm voice, putting the soldier's worries at ease.

"900! 900! 900!" Every one of them shouts following Arthur.

Arthur then walks over the edge of the wall, looking down at the orc army.

Every veteran even those that didn't mind Arthur, can't help but think. 'Shameless'.

Like following Arthur's command, another volley of cannon fire falls at the orc army, killing thousands of orc.

"See," Arthur said, looking back at his thousand followers.

"But sir the Mammoths are still alive."

Seeing that the Mammoths came out again totally unharmed shocked Arthur. 'How tough is this behemoth supposed to be? That's two barrages of cannons we're talking about.'

Although perplexed he didn't let it be known to his followers. While holding his blade and acting cool he said. "No worries they will taste my blade soon enough."

Seeing this Emmanuel can't help but be amazed. 'How shameless can you be?'

Meanwhile, Arthur is already sweating. 'Shit, they're already at the 800 marks, Do we really have nothing to combat those things.'

"800!" Arthur shouted so as his follower but unlike before there's no response from the army.

Everyone looks at each other, then they turn to Arthur without saying anything.

Arthur's face remains calm with a hint of mystery in his eyes 'Well this embarrassing.'

'Busted' Emmanuel can't help but laugh inwardly.

But as everyone is wondering what's going on. Giant Crossbows within the wall show themselves. It started firing volleys of arrows one after the other.

It's not long after a giant arrow hits one of the Mammoth's eyes.

"Waahhhhhh!" The mammoth wails in pain crushing all the orcs below it.

"Horrrayyy!" A loud cheering once again sounded.

Arthur senses a strong pressure coming in one of the towers within the wall. He locks in at the source and finds a girl wearing a military uniform holding a fully extended bow.

Seeing an opportunity Arthur brings out the basic pistol in his inventory.

Clocking it right Arthur pulls the trigger as the arrow clothed in mana hit the mammoth's remaining eye.

"Fall," He said as the arrow pierces through the mammoth eyes all the way into its brain.

Bang! The Mammoth's falls to the ground dead.

Seeing this the soldier is dumbfounded.

"Yaaaaahhhh!!!!! All hail the captain" After composing themselves, they cheer like a bunch of fools.

The veteran soldier stared at Arthur with bulging eyes 'OMG, shamelessness is over 9000! It's cleared that it was an arrow that killed the mammoth, stop taking others credit.'

Contrary to what others thought, Arthur is sweating 'Damn, I already felt that girl is quite strong but I never thought she would be this powerful, let just hope that she doesn't find out about this.'

While the death of a mammoth is a monumental achievement within Arthur's group, to the massive orc army it was nothing but a small inconvenience.

The orc army continues their march without minding the death of their comrade.

'This is bad'

Arthur is not feeling too good about their chances, due to his recent blunder, he decided not to shout the distance anymore.

That turned out to be the right call as after the death of the mammoth the orc army became even more vigilant.

Every time the girl shoots an arrow a giant arrow coming within the orc army will come and immediately intercept it.

700 mark... 600 marks..... 500 marks. The Asgard army fired numerous cannons in an attempt to halt the orc's march but to no avail.

After the 500 marks, the mammoth started to accelerate. They charge towards the wall with the intent of ramming it.

400 mark!

300 mark!

200 mark!

There is no stopping the Orc army.

On the hundred and filthy mark, various captains within the Asgard army decided to step in. Using their most powerful long-range skills they attacked the charging mammoths.

Various powerful attacks that can easily decimate entire platoons rush towards the massive mammoths but before it can hit them, giants in a full set of armor show themselves, destroying this powerful attack with one swing of their weapon.

The only one strong enough to view all of this is the veterans, who watch it with horror.

'Damn'

.....

The mammoth continues charging amidst the army's bombardment.

100 mark!!!

After the mammoths passed mark 100, everyone became tense, some even became so frightened to stand. To make matters worse the orc started a bombardment of their own.

Numerous boulders hurl towards the wall, cannons do their best to intercept but there are far too many boulders for them to take it all down.

A rock with the size of the basketball field manages to evade the cannon fire and hurl toward Arthur and his thousand followers.

Arthur's location is presumed to be a relatively safe place. The army noted that there are no Gobakji amidst the orc in that area and because of the death of a Mammoth earlier there is only one Mammont that they have to deal with.

The army is already stretched thin and they had to prioritize.

The reason that Arthur can act so successfully is that his area is void of a higher-ranking officer, the highest officer there is only a sergeant and most of them are only temporary squad leaders, unlike Arthur who already has subordinates under his command.

"Captain! Captain! Captain!" The soldier is panicking and asking for Arthur's guidance but he remained unmoved.

Numerous squad leaders are already leading their members to safety. Lieutenant Jeffrey, Arthur's superior is already charging there at full speed but it seems that he would not be able to make it.

When things seem hopeless. Arthur smiles.

'It's time' Seeing that the rock is close enough, he started to make his move.

He looks at Emmanuel conveying his plan.

Emmanuel nodded and grabbed the shield behind his back.

Arthur runs towards Emmanuel and using his shield as a flat form he rocketed toward the rock.

Unsheathing his blade he executed [Slash].

Swoosh! A rock the size of the basketball field is cut in half.

Everyone stared dumbfounded. The whole battlefield became silent for a second before a thundering cheer reverberated.

"Hooooooooooooo! Captain!"
