《Eternal Soul》Chapter-25
Advertisement
Grekorio brought down the greatsword on a wood elf, who died right away. Arrows keep raining on them undead, while from his side only 6 arrows could be see on the sky, with fire balls flying above him that destroyed the undead behind him, soon there are only 50 undeads.
Grekorio began to retreat while hiding behind his greatsword, only dodging the fire balls that crash near him. They accomplished their objective of tiring the enimies and a few unlucky ones that died.
"Get ready.", He said to Woody after getting behind the few dozen undeads left.
The weak bony wall in front of him was soon destroyed, and the enemy army marched forwards whilst Alexandre ordered full retreat and the few of them without difficulty entered the cave.
After Alexandre and the others entered the cave, the enimies stopped at the front of the cave and after staring at it for few moment the their leader shouted to everyone to rest, which they did, or tried to do, before they could even sit down the ground shaked, almost knocking them down. After stabilising themself, the search for around and only after looking up they could see the reason, their reaction was to run inside cave, but the passage was narrow, so the ones behind pushed the ones in front of them forward for more space to them hide.
The rocks didn't caused casualties, but closed the road that allowed them to retreat. Seeing everyone alright the leader shouted the same thing again and all of them started to sit down, but they're interrupted again when two trees above them disconnected with the ground, dropping in front of them.
They tiredly readied themselves, the mages still need to recover their mp, arrow are limited so the archer couldn't use much which only left the warriors, taking theirs shields one of them approached one of the treant, but the fool was innocent and never fighted anything like this, not paying attention to the ground below him, when he was one meter of distance from the treant, a root appeared from the ground thrusting upwards, impaling him before receding back to the ground.

The scene that happened before their eyes raised their awareness, the leader at the back was thinking hard, mulling his brain, burning his neuronies. before he decided to do exactly what Alexandre and Grekorio wanted, first he ordered to kill the treants but wasn't successful at that, when the killed the two treants more tree appeared raising the death counts in this campaign.
Seeing the situation getting worse by the second, he couldn't retreat with the rocks in the way, and the mages will take a one hour to recover from the mana that they used early.
The leader ordered twenty soldier to stay behind to fight whilst all the others orderly entered the cave, they marched 100 meter into the darkness slowly, stopping their march the leader said to four mages to use a spell of light.
Grekorio was hiding behind a rock and using the woody's vision so he could see through the rock, staring at the energy light at the distance, he then turned to Alexandre and seeing him at the same place without change, Grekorio too continued to wait for them to get closer.
With a light ball above them, the enemy army started their march, as they are getting closer Grekorio moved his eyes to the side and noticed the energy inside Layla body moving in a pattern, slowly gathering together to form a ball in hers mouth.
The soldiers under Alexandre are hiding in crevices and behind rocks, like Grekorio, and all of them are looking at Alexandre's direction patiently waiting for the order.
The enemy soldiers are already passing below Grekorio, the shadows cast by the lightball gave the cave a even more spooky feeling. Grekorio stared at the soldiers below him whom are frantically looking around for enemy sign.
As half of them passed by Grekorio, Alexandre gestured to get Layla attention, which he got, and lifting his hand and quickly bringing it down gave Layla a clear ideia of what should so had to do.

Making the same action as the last time, the ground shaked and from it bony hands reached out, whilst it was happening the archers with theirs arrows already ready, sharp sound could be heard by the arrows just released.
Killing a few just in this suprise attack. Now the warrior jumped out from the crevice and while the enemy is stunned they killed as many as they could and among them was Grekorio swinging his greatsword with energy.
The undead rised from the ground while other simply grabbed the ankle of the enemy warriors, their leader shouted to calm everyone down while he ordered the mages to use their mana without worry.
Grekorio hearing that began to aim for the mages by throwing knives at them while trying hard to get closer to them, but the meat wall in front was too much for him alone to do that.
The skeletons help diminished with the time but their help tilted the balance to Grekorio's side, as the meat wall in front of him diminished over time too, it left a few mages unguarded, Grekorio took as many opportunities as he can to kill the mages.
Grekorio hid in a shadow to recover his breath, while in the shadow a opportunity came, in which he jumped in, with a downwards swing Grekorio transformed the mage head in meat paste.
Before he could celebrate in front of him appeared a challenger, who shouted at him,"I dare you to duel with me!"
Grekorio thought,'I could ask, why should i? But why not, just one more kill for me.', then he replied the wood elf in front of him,"Sure, why not."
Grekorio just after saying that jumped at his next target.
