Warning prepare for the first wave. Total enemy: 70+50 due 85% corruption.
"Everyone, prepare for battle!"
Said Anton activated 'Call To Arms' order. Call To Arms is a unique order for the player's all civilians and workers for arming themselves from everything they could find from storage and prepared for battle. In-game, it was order used for the last-ditch effort or creating a meat shield for more important units. But Anton already prepared weapons and armors enough for all of his people, so it turned his defenseless peasants into an armed militia rather than cannon fodder.
Following his order, all of 20 people armed with spears and bows along with simple but good armor that protect their body. Standing around the village's fence, prepared for enemy attack.
A few minutes later, Anton saw many figures stepping out of the forest, at the same time The Lost ones rising from the ground bolstering the enemy's number.
"Ahh, shit!"
Anton couldn't help but curse the forgetful head of his. Only when The Lost ones start to raise from the ground, he remembered things about corruption. As its name sounds after the great war were gods successfully sealed the old gods, but almost everything corrupt by their power except a small part of the land was alliance pushed back.
Unless it's purified in a special way, corrupted earth and water will slowly corrupt every living being, eventually turning them into all kinds of monsters or lost ones. Then there is also a problem that corrupted water and earth can't be used.
"After this, I must build a church and summon hero that has an affinity with holy, life, or death. Then farm, defense, production, and ahhh so many things to do. "
With a long sign, Anton stood in front of the fence preparing to receive the enemy. Behind the lost ones stood a short, ugly creature called goblins armed with makeshift weapons along with a slow-moving rotting corpse armed with broken swords and damaged armor looks about to fall off.

"It seems my predecessors."
Noticing their master's mortal enemy standing in front of them, the enemy immediately changed their target and rushed towards the half-naked young man in a frenzy. In their frenzy, they failed to notice incoming
arrows.
Even though they are just peasants who don't have any combat experience each one of them knows how to thrust their spear and fire an arrow, no matter how bad accuracy is firing an arrow in the middle of this mindless enemy force will hit something.
*HAK!*
Following the sound, Anton saw at least five or six of them turning into a light followed by another three.
"They look more disgusting up close."
Anton mocked two goblins that charging towards him with his makeshift spear.
'Counter!'
Even though after fights with lost ones in the forest he couldn't open his eye and observe his opponent normally, Anton found out while using a skill he can observe his own body and his opponent without any problem.
Just like last time, Anton's body takes a usual stance on a moment he decided to use the skill. On moment makeshift spear moved past his wrist area he moved his right leg back moving right part of his body dodges an incoming spear by hair length. At the same time, he immediately followed up the swing of his left arm blasting one goblin's head with a back fist.
Without pause, he punched other goblin's head with his left arm then followed by his right hand caving goblin's chest in. With two opponents caught in is hit the effect of the counter is ended giving control back to Anton.
"Huuuh..."
Taking a deep breath Anton begun to fight normally until his counter can be used again. Due combination of his skill, a status he got from fight and support from his militia Anton able to withstand the enemy's attack at the same time killing both goblin and the lost one with a single punch.

The battle has begun to drag on as some of the enemy forces begun to rush towards the militia knowing it can't reach Anton but immediately put down by arrows and spears behind the barricade.
'Fack my life, fuck my life!'
Cursing in his mind Anton continues to endure the incoming attacks. Their poor spears and swords couldn't cut his strong flesh but he still felt pain. He knows to dodge in this situation impossible for him who just recently learned to punch and kick somewhat properly. He thought of rolling away but immediately realized it only make him easier to hit.
'When those things will end? It better be the about to end or else I gonna be beaten to death.'
Even though it only a few minutes passed since the battle started as in mid of fight, Anton felt like an eternity.
'Shit! My head is spinning... Guess it's only natural for every blow I land I get pounded six or ten times in return. At least I thankful that I got a body similar to the game character.'
Shaking his head to get rid of dizziness, Anton continues to pummel any moving thing that entered his vision.
Anton doesn't how much time has passed but he suddenly felt a little bit weak but familiar pain.
"AAI!"
Screaming in pain Anton noticed The Lost One with its leg in between his legs kicking his treasure behind a leaf.
"YOU!"
Using rage as power Anton high kicked the lost one with all of his power, after receiving his kick The lost one disappeared into light immediately at the same time he saw system message appear in front of him.
Congratulations on surviving the first wave. Reward: 500 mana stone. The Hero Summoning function is unlocked.
