Reincarnation Of The Strongest Spirit Master

If not for his monster weapon, he'd not be able to even come near such a point. Monsters kept coming at him like a flood, coming from everywhere. And even his arrows started to lose their effect to some point.

"I tested what the entire war would be like when this monster army arrived at the city gates… It will be really hard to control…"

William didn't delve this deep inside the monster army to try and take them down. He wasn't this delusional to commit such a mistake. He just came here to test how hard it'd be when things would be heated up.

From the look of it, he could tell how bad the future war would be. It wasn't just the issue of the difference between the two sides' overall grades, but how these monsters fought.

They were using tactics in the middle of their attack. If one didn't look closer, he'd not notice such subtle moves and changes in formations these monsters used.

Any monster tide in the tiny world depended solely on the human wave tactic. But monsters coming from the higher realm got their level of intelligence, were able to change their targets and even their lineup in the middle of the ongoing war.

As William tested, when he went deeper, they started to dispatch large numbers to keep his weapon busy. Then they flanked him, and tried to come at him from the totally opposite point of his weapon.

When he tried to move his weapon using fast dashes towards the incoming large group of monsters, this group shifted its role, and took the task of occupying the weapon and keeping it busy. Then another group appeared from the totally opposite direction.

This made William's experience here a bit hard. Yet he didn't struggle as he knew the best way to counter such moves from the enemy. He stuck closer to his weapon, and headed anywhere the monster went towards.

This wasn't a hard thing to pull as William was the one giving orders to the monster weapon. Yet this also limited his ability to collect loot. After staying there for one hour, he decided to end this experiment and retreat.

Monsters didn't leave him alone for five more hours, even when he retreated for tens of kilometres. Yet at the end, they either dropped the idea of chasing him, or got killed by the combined effort of his weapon and arrows.

"Shall I prepare for losing that city or what?" William could already see the fall of the city under such unstoppable monster tide. They were relentless, smart, and hellish strong. Putting into consideration the currently terrible status of the city and its forces, William knew their chances in surviving this and keeping the city were very low.

He had no choice here. If the city was in its prime condition, then there might be a good chance of fending off these monsters.

The number of high end masters in the city got shrunk by a lot. Many got wounded and killed during the last civil war. Not to mention those who ran away. William could only sigh and accept such a result, promising to come later and reclaim the city if it fell.

But he'd not even think about running away without killing lots of monsters. This wasn't just to weaken the defending monsters after the end of this war, but it was also for the loot he was collecting right now.

As he finally got rid of the scary numbers of monsters chasing him, William continued his activity like before. Things weren't as hectic as they were when he went deeply into the army of monsters. And that made him collect tons of loot.

Time passed fast, and back in the city things were quite depressing. William didn't tell Lara or anyone about the nature of this monster tide, but many forces already dispatched their scouts and examined the current situations using their spirit sense.

They soon delivered the grave news over, speaking about the endless ocean of leopards. They also described how these leopards looked different, looked much stronger than any leopards seen in the world.

Then when few of them witnessed what William was doing, and noticed how hard it was to take down these leopards, they realised how different these leopards were.

They weren't just bigger, but they were much advanced than any leopard in this world. In their rough estimate, the entire monster tide was formed of dark gold grade monsters only. And that was quite scary.

Many forces started to experience cold feet, thinking about dropping the task of defending the city and running away for their lives. They'd lose a ton if they did that. But in the end, they'd keep their lives, and that was more important than anything else.

William didn't know this, but after close to twenty hours from the arrival of the monster tide in this world, a grand meeting occurred, an explosive one.

The different forces just got out from a deadly and bloody conflict with the Vancouf family. So it was expected how things went south in that meeting.

"Are you telling me we lost most of the forces? They decided to retreat?!" William was in the middle of doing the usual, killing monsters and collecting the loot, when he received such news from Lara. he couldn't help but curse at these cowards, knowing they must have learnt about the true nature of the incoming monster tide.

That was the reason why William didn't tell Lara, didn't tell anyone about this. Yet the response from these forces exceeded his worst estimates.

[We… We are alone now] Lara tiredly sighed, [I tried to corner them, pressure them with threats, even tempt them, and yet all failed]


"You can't ask a deserter to be in the frontlines and put his life on the line," William knew trying to convince the forces now was a futile attempt. And by this, all the hope about saving the city was gone, "but there is still little hope. Spread out your people, let's recruit any master from these forces if possible."
