Chapter 390: A Battle Of Strategies 2

Standing on the top of the boulder, Noah stared up ahead with a rotten expression as if he had just stepped on some kind of shit.

All the squads he had sent to the place were either gone missing due to being lost or died inside.

Out of the two, Noah believed the latter.

He clenched his fist and stared ahead with hateful eyes.

'I can't let that bastard live. He is turning out to be a great threat with each passing second.'

"It's all my fault. All of them died due to my recklessness. I am useless."

General Zhang and General Den fell onto their knees and shouted"Please don't blame yourself."

"It's all our fault. We subordinates are incapable of carrying out your order."

General Zhang bowed his head and said"Your Highness, there had been no news from those who had entered the place so this humble one would like to make a suggestion."

Noah nodded and muttered, "Speak."

"We shouldn't send any more soldiers. It's useless. The enemy tactics are quite deadly and since they are fighting in a terrain where they have a natural advantage either we should lure them out or wait for the time being."

"We have killed all the survivors of Kinley so we can't lure them out so why don't we wait for the sunrise and begin the seizure? In two or three hours the sun would be over us and the enemies can't use the darkness."

Noah shook his head and sighed"Look the forest is too dense and even if the sun rises, the floor inside would be still gloomy. Moreover, there is still a mountain ahead.No matter what, stepping inside is deadly."

"If I order every soldier to go in and kill them. We might achieve the result but the loss is something which might outweigh the gain."

"So, what should we do, Your Highness?" General Zhang spoke while staring at Noah with an inexplicable expression.

"I remember you said that they have a home advantage in there so what if we destroy their home advantage," Noah spoke with a vicious expression.

General Zhang swallowed his saliva and looked with confused self-expression"Destroy their home."

"Hmm!"

"But how?"General Den asked with a confused expression.

Noah nodded and said"Order the troops to burn the forest. We will burn everything and trap them inside."

"Unable to bear the heat, they would be trapped on the mountain or would to go out."

General Zhang's expression lit up upon hearing Noah's expression.

Counter-attacking others in such a way, he believed only this man could think like this.

Burning the entire forest of Terror of Ranvier would not only make another side immobile but will also make the suffocate and lose their temper due to all the smoke and dust.

"But Your Highness, what about our people who are inside and what about their corpses?"

"Send a signal so that anyone who is still alive may come back."

"And about the corpse, we can't do anything." Noah shook his head and walked away.

Noah's order was carried out within a matter of minutes, first, they cleared the area near them so that they wouldn't be the ones to suffer after which they carved some walls with rocks to stop the fire from spreading to another side.

The mages then took over the job and shot their spells. The shot rose towards the sky.

One..two...four...eight.The number of shots reached a hundred and fell over the forest.

They were ordered to fire their spells as much farther as possible so that if there was an enemy close to the radius, he might be caught up by the attack.

BOOM!BOOM!BOOM!BOOM!BOOM!

The spells exploded one after another clearing the entire mass of green vegetation and soon a wildfire spread all around the forest crazily.

A cracking sound echoed and the entire path was emitted. Everyone gasped as they saw the extent and destruction of the fire.

The fire was beyond their control.

"Let's see just how long the mouse is going to stay up in the bill," Noah muttered with a smirk.

Deep Inside the forest, a shadow flashed through the space and hurried its way.

The shadow soon encountered the man who was looking straight with a grim expression.

The shadow stopped before the man and Riya emerged from it.

Her breathing was a mess and her chest went up and down and she muttered with panic" Alex, they have set the entire front of the forest on fire."

Alex didn't speak anything and sat there silently.

Soon, Max and Aeon, followed by many, walked out of the forest with grim expressions.

The heavy black smoke hovered like a cloud above them. It wasn't a good thing for them as the smoke was going to cover the entire wilderness.

It was already an area which gives an indication and smoke on top would make it more difficult for them to breathe.

If this goes on, soon they are going to be suffocated to death.

After a few moments, Alex got up from the place.

It was at that moment, everyone's hearts skipped a beat as a dark mass of blood-red figures materialised around him.

Alex's expression was as cold as a thousand years of blocks of ice. His eyes were cold enough to freeze anyone with a single glance.

"He is crossing all limits and doing everything he can to win this war," Alex muttered.

"Listen, clear a patch of land and set the place on fire and let it spread forward. Both fires would soon diffuse each other."

"Before that, ask the earthen mage to form the earth mounds and start forming a barricade because as soon as the fire is over, we would have already lost a significant chunk of land as well as our advantage," Alex spoke with a hoarse voice.

"Also ask the mages to push the smoke with wind and clear away the sky. Our breathing may be impaired due to all this and may affect our fight."

"What will we do now? Our initial tactics had been countered now. We can't use the terrain to our advantage like before. Even if we put out this fire, they would advance and light another." Riya spoke in a worried tone.

Alex looked up towards the sun that was rising above the horizon slowly.

"He has mobilised most of his forces here because he thinks that the defence line is safe."

"Those who fear getting burned shouldn't light the fire in another house. Since he dares to start a fire here, he should prepare to handle the fire in his fort." Alex muttered and his figure rose in the sky.

"Riya just do what I have and ask those lazy bums to start preparing. The situation is getting worse."

"Soon, we need all the hands we have. Ask them to prepare for the fight."

"Meanwhile, I will sneak out from this place and bombard the defence line and force him to step back or compromise which I doubt would happen but at the least, he has to think twice before acting."

Alex's loud voice was accompanied by a loud sonic boom as he flew over the sky.
