Chapter 630: Casting a hook
With Sophia and Wilfred infiltrating each wing, they were causing tremendous chaos. Among the powerful, even their leaders were reduced to rolling on the ground. Meanwhile, the weak were hardly worth mentioning.
In just 10 minutes, Sophia and Wilfred had killed more than 3,000 people.
"Haah..." Sophia took a deep breath. ’Too bad they’re so weak. They barely give me any power.’ She thought and looked up.
There were more powerful leaders, but they were directing everything from behind the large army. If she could reach them, she would surely gain a great deal of power, possibly exceeding 120,000 in an instant.
"Too bad..."
Despite this, she didn’t stop moving. Her murderous and ruthless movements left no room for screams, and even though they tried to kill her by surrounding her with many people, it was too easy for her to clear a path.
The most powerful among them immediately noticed.
"There are too many saint weapons. A single move could kill many of us, even if it’s not aimed properly. What kind of attributes do they have?"
Despite noticing this, there was nothing they could do. The difference was too great. The vast majority of soldiers had less than 10,000 power, between 2,500 and 5,000.
Meanwhile, the most powerful ones between 5,000 and 10,000 were few and far between in each group.
Those above that category were powerful commanders and generals. However, to Sophia, they were nothing more than a pile of dead meat with some semblance of strength.
"But we still win drastically in numbers. There’s no way they can kill us all if it’s just this group fighting." The generals knew what advantage they had.
The numbers. They knew perfectly well that a vampire clan could destroy an entire kingdom if it wanted to, but the Murphy Clan was weakened. Besides, their hands were tied.
Although Sophia and Wilfred were taking action, none of the elders were doing anything because they were at a disadvantage in terms of overall power, which was because the kingdom was not a single kingdom.
They also have powerful Pillar Clans.
And those powerful guys were behind them. If the elders within the Murphy Clan moved, then the Pillar Clans would act.
Neither of them was sure they could defeat the other side, so they had to be careful. Consequently, on the ground, they held the advantage.
They may not have much power, but they have numbers.
The more than 2 million people of the Kingdom also had powerful infiltrators who would move at the right moments. Meanwhile, the Murphys and their army of just over 50,000 men were far behind.
Even if they were powerful, could they face 50 men accompanied by 500 or 1,000 men?
’Surely not.’
That’s why the generals were confident and immediately called for a massive frontal attack: "No one stop. Let’s all go straight at them. Treat each one of them as if they were a regiment of 100 of their men."
"Advance!"
After the first shout, many of them raised their weapons and shields.
Those with shields, who had previously been easily passed by Sophia’s cunning and skill, began to advance forward with a roar, placing themselves in front of those with long spears.
The swordsmen advanced differently. They grabbed the flanks, trying to ram them.
Something was amazing about this. Despite the large movement of people, they were not using mounts or chariots.
The large beasts that are typically characteristic of these great wars were not even in sight, which made the Murphys wonder, "Where are those big beasts?"
They couldn’t completely abandon the Murphy base, so their large beasts remained behind with the tamers to protect their lands, as they were aware of the traitors in their ranks.
They couldn’t afford to lose them to treachery, because then they would be ambushed.
But why weren’t the Kingdom’s forces using them?
It is known that the Blacksmith Kingdom has a large number of incredibly armed beasts, but with none in sight, the situation became a little suspicious.
Many were expecting some kind of flanking attack with these beasts, but nothing happened.
Not even Sophia could have known, as her clairvoyance couldn’t see it. That’s why she was the most confused.
But seeing the kind of charge they were trying to attack them with, she smiled. "A bunch of idiots. But the one I want to take the bait..." She suddenly looked up.
She seemed to frown, but she was actually smiling. She thought the fish she wanted to catch wouldn’t fall into her trap, but there he was, ready to bite her bait.
’He’s much more powerful than the rumors.’ She realized.
’He must be the one who attacked my father. Well, bastard. Come here. There’s a big surprise waiting for you.’
She leaped forward and brutally attacked those who sought to charge them. Her attack was brutal and filled with murderous intent. This opened a huge gap among the attackers, where the shields became useless, and no one behind them could withstand the onslaught.
More than 70 people died in an instant, having been pierced by one of Sophia’s daggers.
At the same time, she aimed in different directions, and four of her daggers wreaked havoc once again, creating huge gaps between the attackers.
As a result, Murphy’s forces broke into a frenzy and rushed forward, ready to kill as many as they could.
They did not charge recklessly. They were true professionals, and no matter how many ants there were, they could still win!
And even more so if they moved strategically, advancing together at the right moments.
In a matter of seconds, carnage broke out once again, this time even more powerful. Of the more than 100,000 enemies in this area, they were soon reduced to less than 30,000, and it was then that Sophia fired a strange shot into the air, causing the other regiments to advance finally.
They did not do so in an orderly fashion. To the surprise of the Kingdom’s members, they advanced in complete disarray, heading wherever they pleased.
But at the same time, an incredibly powerful person appeared in front of Sophia and struck her in the chest. She managed to defend herself in the end, bringing one of her own weapons to bear on her chest, which mitigated some of the damage, but the power was so strong that she ended up being dragged backward.
