'I told everyone,' Gege returned after a few minutes, 'when will we act?'
Arthur checked the fights around. "Tell the werewolf and others resting there to be ready," he said, "the front will be handled by the werewolf force and the rear by the monsters."
'What about mechas?' Gege asked.
"Let them have a moment of peace with Doaf and Amera," Arthur said, "they did a great job for now. I bet the upcoming fight will need their strength."
Gege went to relay his new orders while he kept moving forward amidst all this mess. It wasn't a secret now he was leading this kamikaze army, and so many attacks tried to sneak and target him.
Yet no matter who, none managed to break through the tight defense around him. Doaf and Amera left behind a group of elites who were able to kill anyone with ease.
Even if they were outnumbered, the werewolf acted as his last line of defense and showed up at stressful moments. Just barely keeping his balance over the thin edge of the sword, Arthur kept moving forward without getting a single wound.
But he didn't hurry to execute his plans. He knew any mile they crossed now would be considered a great gain.
He knew his plan would be applied only once. To reuse it again he had to do many things, wasting more time in doing so.
And thus he didn't hurry to execute the plan, waited patiently while trying to select the best timing.
"The best timing will be when you all are on the verge of collapsing," he muttered to himself while keeping a keen watch over everything around.
'You are ruthless,' the golden dragon noticed his silence and weird attitude and linked the dots. 'I thought you would use your plan right from the start.'
"It would be a waste," Arthur slowly said, "the fast team took two hours to reach their place. That means we need at least double or even triple that. We have to cross that as fast as we can after starting my plan."
'Ding! So you are trying to bide your time here,' the system said, 'Ding! It's too dangerous, but I commend you for your cold nerves.'
"I have to," Arthur took a deep breath, "I won't interfere unless it's already desperate."
Arthur kept watching while Doaf and Amera were nervous. The pressure on every front was getting unbearable at this point.
They started to get swarmed with their foes, making them feel like moving their legs in very heavy waters.
Each step forward was now accompanied with many losses on their side. Yet Arthur didn't use his plan until an hour later.
Even Doaf and Amera lost their cool more than once, shouted from their places with extreme anger:
"Do it now! What the hell are you waiting for?!"
But Arthur chose to keep his calm and silence, watching with rare patience everything going on around.
"They are at their limits," he noticed the rear and front lines were flickering now and would be breached at any moment. "It's time to act."
He simply raised his sword high in the air before shouting with his loudest voice: "Everyone listen to my call… Run with your fastest speed! Run like your lives depend on it!"
His mark was too loud, too clear, and eye catchy enough to be spotted by his enemies. But he didn't care.
All he cared about was to deliver the signal clearly to everyone around before finally acting.
Those around once heard his shout and didn't hesitate to run. They already received head on notification from Gege through the tree, so they were ready to run the moment he shouted.
"Gege…" Arthur finally turned serious as he started activating his sword again, "release her now…"
'Where?' Gege calmly asked.
"Just over there," he pointed his phantom sword towards the forefront.
'Are you sure?' Gege asked in doubt, 'this will isolate you from everyone, not to mention the danger from both sides.'
"I know what I'm doing," Arthur didn't think twice, "release her now."
The next moment a portal opened just at the place he pointed at. It was a normal portal at first, before it got enlarged in an accelerating way.
Many lycans thought it was a way for their foes to hide, so they foolishly entered that portal without second thoughts.
"Morons," Arthur sneered while watching this, "they all are walking to their deaths, hehehe."
'All of them couldn't live a single moment inside,' Gege laughed evilly, 'they are really stupid.'
'I wish you two can share what you are doing,' the golden dragon was impatient yet the system suddenly gasped before saying in shock:
'Ding! Damn! This is something I never expected at all!'
'What? You know what these two are scheming?' The golden dragon was frustrated from the fact he was the last person to know. 'C'mon, be a good friend and tell me.'
'Ding! everything will be known very soon,' the system said, 'Ding! But I have to admit… I never saw this coming.'
Arthur simply smiled while watching the portal getting larger at a fast pace. More lycans entered the portal with no regard to anything.
And that helped to clear a lot of enemies in that area.
"Damn! If I knew this would happen, I would prefer to use this as a tactic from the start," Arthur regretted not seeing this coming before. If he had the chance then he would use such a way to eliminate more enemies fast.
'Ding! You can still use this later on,' the system suggested, 'Ding! I believe you will need that trick when dealing with those elites.'
"Agreed," Arthur nodded, "and here she comes…"
"Rumble!"
Just in front of him, the portal got enlarged enough for a gigantic thing to pass through it. The first thing that appeared were long and giant tentacles that kept dancing fiercely in the air.
Then the main body of that brutal monster appeared with a thundering roar coming out from it.
"Roar!"
"Wow, she is very pissed off to be dragged outside the Golam lake," Arthur laughed while watching the monster land in midair.
And the first thing she did was to aim for the portal, yet the portal was instantly closed by Gege.
'All is set in place,' Gege said, 'now it's a question if she will follow your lead.'
Arthur smirked evilly before saying, "Tell her this, she will follow and kill any of my enemies in return for entering my lake again."
