Chapter 226: The Final Battle (6)

There were murmurs everywhere, but the students were well aware of how powerless they were at this situation. All the soldiers behind them, who were shielding them, were disgruntled, to say the least.

“How are they sending the students back, and making the children fight? Do they have no shame?” a soldier quipped.

“What did you just say? I dare you to repeat that again.” one student heard what the soldier just said and was just enraged.

“Silence. You are all powerless here. Every moment that you stay here is another moment that you are wasting my, and everyone’s time. Move it. After the soldiers all move in, maybe we can use you all for some corpse disposal.” Liu Feng shouted. The last thing that he wanted was a fight amongst themselves. 

They walked, and quickly caught up to the first platoon that went on ahead. Liu Feng stopped the children behind him for a moment, who were all on horse back, and trotted forward faster to catch up to George and Liu Man.

“What are you doing, Liu Feng? Why are you breaking the formation?” Liu Man asked.

“I must ask you why you are here first. You did not participate in any of the subjugation.” Liu Feng asked.

“I am not that weak. This is the final battle, and it is important that every fighter comes out. I am one of the more powerful ones. Of course, I will come out. And what will everyone think if their king does not lead in battle?” Liu Man said. His entire demeanor had changed, and it was as if he was a completely different man than a few hours ago.

Liu Feng looked at him with suspicion but finally reeled his eyes off. 

“There are demons approaching. We must assume position and defend. Where are the seniors? Did the go ahead?” Liu Feng asked.

“They went forward, probably dealing with the higher ranked demons.” George nodded.

Liu Feng nodded back, and slowly the soldiers in the first platoon started splitting up to form an area where the children could stand. The children rode forward, and soon, they were flanked by one row of soldier on all their sides, like a shield that was stopping everything outside from coming in.

“Where are all the students? This many mages will hardly make a dent in the demon army, if their scale is what I presume it is.” Liu Man asked.

“They were sent back. In such an environment with such little mana, they wouldn’t make a difference because their spells wouldn’t work. But, a few elves have remained, and they all have their own mana storage, so they will be able to fight against the demons reasonably.” Liu Feng said.

“You shouldn’t make decisions like that without me. You could have outfitted them with a gun, and that way, they would have been useful.” Liu Man said harshly.

“What will they do with a gun? Guns are already few and far between. Better if we give them to someone who can actually use it. It seems that bringing all the students here was a waste.” Liu Feng shook his head.

Liu Man sighed as he shook his head.

“Do whatever you want. I just have to say. I am disappointed in you. I expect you to tell me what you do, and to ask me for permission for everything that is of substance. I hope that you will not make this mistake once more. This war is very important, and I cannot afford to mess this up.” Liu Man said.

“Yes, Father.” Liu Feng nodded. Then, his face changed. He looked around, and slowly, the mist around them was still present, but he could see silhouettes amongst them.

“The demons are here!” George shouted. All the children looked serious, and they all started chanting. As for all of the soldiers, they certainly weren’t there as placeholders. Every single one of them had a gun in their hands, and they were aimed at the silhouettes, ready to shoot.

The blurry figures became clearer.

“Demon soldiers and some demon spawn? How did they survive the nuclear attack. Looks like the minister wasn’t bluffing. They did shield the attack, and they still have a sizeable army.” Liu Feng thought to himself.

He raised his arm, and a greatsword appeared in it from his spatial ring. He got off of his horse, and started walking into the mist, towards the demons.

“What are you doing, Liu Feng? This is not a joke. Come back this instant.” Liu Man scowled.

“I am sorry father, but it seems that you are very troubled today. I am the biggest defense against these demons, and I want to make sure that not a single extra life is lost.” Liu Feng shrugged.

His figure disappeared as he ran into the mist. Clangs of swords and blood splatters could be seen through the mist. But Liu Feng could not stop all of the demons. They still came forward, and it was time for the children of the mage tower to get to work.

“Everyone. This is very important. Two mages will focus on one demon soldier. Or else, they will not die. They are very tenacious. Attack after the demon soldiers have been hit by a blast from a gun.” Hu Long was shouting at the children. He had taken up the role of the leader nicely after Liu Feng left this void. 

The children were also good followers of orders. With the soldiers of the army starting to blast the demons with the guns, spells from the children also hurled towards them. An all out fight had just begun. 

Behind them, the soldiers and the archers of the elves were also not standing freely. Barrages of arrows fell on the demons, and casualties were appearing in their ranks almost instantly.
