DONG!
DONG!
DONG!
With loud noises coming from a gong being hit by a large mallet, an army was charging forward, towards the four armies fighting.
It was being led by a middle-aged man wearing a combat suit, riding a Tier 9 beast that looked like a mammoth, except, it was fast. The man had a fierce look on his face as charged forwards with his army that consisted of people from different races.
Looking at that, Lith recalled the things he had learnt in history books. It was said that a million years ago, the Neutral Continent was handled by the races in shifts. This shift was different from what it was at the present date.
Previously, nobody was allowed to be in the administration of the Neutral Continent except for a single race that was managing it. One race would manage the continent for approximately ten thousand years. This led to many problems and the Demons, Elves, Dragons, and Humans had a disagreement on such few problems.
These four races wanted to scrap out this rotating system and each one of them had plans to rule over the Neutral Continent by themselves. This led to war between the four and here they were, doing just that.
As for the other four races, they had their reasons to not participate in the war. The Witches were a neutral faction and decided to be neutral in this area.
The Vampires didn’t take part because the Neutral Continent had a day and night cycle. They wanted a dark atmosphere each second of the day.
As for the Werewolves, they saw no benefits in the Neutral Continent and were short on manpower. They hadn’t even explored their own continent, what are they gonna do with more?
The Angels were a peaceful bunch. They disliked war as it caused bloodshed and harmed the lives of many. They tried to stop the other races from going to war but it was all for naught. When they couldn’t stop the other four races, they decided to back off themselves and thus did not take part in it.
The other races, apart from the eight main races, did not like the fact that only one race controlled the entire continent which was located at such a great place.
The Neutral Continent was present at an equivalent distance from the other eight continents and this meant that one could go to any continent they wanted by having a stop at the Neutral Continent.
This meant that this place had the potential to become an economic center of the world and would bring in a lot of wealth as well as various cultures of the world together.
No one wanted to have just one race rule over this place and everybody, except for a few, wanted to have a piece of this pie.
Camps were formed due to this reason. There were five camps and everybody in the world who wanted to participate in this war could join any one of the camps. The Demons, Dragons, Elves, and Humans belonged to one camp each.
These few people from the enemy camps were smart enough to know that if only one race ruled over an entire continent, they would get attacked constantly by others and this would lead to severe losses. The losses would add up as time goes by and in the end, they would need to flee from the continent.
These people obviously cared for the benefits of their own race and knew that the decision to be overlords was wrong and had to join the enemy camp and fight their own people for it.
There were seven generals in the fifth camp and the head of these generals was General Minzoi.
Minzoi was the middle-aged man in combat suit on a Tier 9 beast and he was at the forefront of his army. He was a man that didn’t fear the heavens and even if it meant fighting four extremely powerful overlords of the world, he didn’t back off.
Lith looked at General Minzoi with a bit of respect as he recalled his achievements in this war. Today he had the chance to look at the achievements he had read with his own eyes. This feeling was something that he wasn’t able to put into words.
He remembered how back on Earth he had to mug-up history for his tests and exams. He didn’t like history because remembering the achievements, various dynasties and other stuff was tiring and boring.
But, history would have become his favourite subject there if he had access like this available. How cool would it be to actually experience the past things by being in those places in real time. It would be a concept similar to time travel but without the paradoxes or butterfly effect.
General Minzoi’s army was in a diamond shape. The pointy front the army consisted of their strongest warriors well versed in short range combat and the pointy back consisted of the warriors well versed in long range combat. In the middle were healers who were protected by tanks, mages, assassins and a few short range combat warriors.
They may seem to have to have a balanced defense and offense like the Demons and the Humans but when the trio looked closer, they found that it wasn’t balanced. The offense of this army was stronger than their defense. It was almost double.
“Here it comes. The point where the equilibrium is broken.” Lith said calmly as he looked at Minzoi’s army.
