"Oh my god! The Commander killed it!!"
"This is incredible!!"
"The Commander is an Elite Medal Holder, of course, he can kill it!!"
"Wow!!"
Commander Wang stood on the Geryon staring at the other three, he then looked at his members behind him.
"They are powerful, but if you confused them, you'll be able to end these things."
*Graaaa!!!!!*
The remaining three Geryon let out angry roars, and shot towards him.
"[Mist of illusion]!!" Celina yelled seeing the Geryons' actions.
A white mist appeared around the place, covering all the soldiers and Geryons.
"[Earth marker]!" A soldier yelled, green veins shot out from the ground, curling around the Greyons, then strangle the four.
"Glow!" He added.
The veins instantly started glowing, showing the soldiers the Geryons' exact locations in the mist.
"Attack! My skill can only last for 5 minutes!" Celina yelled.
Commander Wang, and his soldiers nodded at her and shot towards the Geryons... Thanks to the glowing veins, they quickly attacked, slashing right and left.
The Geryons were both confused and irritated, not being able to detect the enemies, but get continuously wounded was really frustrating.
After five minutes, the mist slowly vanished, revealing three Geryons on the ground, with green blood flowing out of their bodies.
**I'm Impress, Such teamwork is good, I just hope it'll work on me. Come on, I'm waiting!**
The Soldiers looked at each others, and sighed.
"Something isn't right." Commander Wang stated.
"I know, these Geryons don't have soul essence, maybe it has something to do with the new server announcement." Celina guessed.
"You might be right, come on, we lost 20 soldiers here, I hope we won't lose anyone in the next attack." Commander Wang walked up to the soldier who created the Veins, and tapped his shoulder.
"You did good, Glen. Keep up the good work."
"Just doing my best, Commander." Glen nodded.
"A question, Commander. Why can't we summon our pets?" He asked.
"Not yet, We need to keep our strength hidden, and only reveal it when facing the Boss." The Commander said with a small smile, then turned his gaze to Kay, who stood at the side.
"Let's go!!" He yelled.
The group nodded, and continued their journey deeper into the passage.
_
After walking for god knows how long, they finally got to the end of the passage, coming into a clear Field.
"What the hell?!"
They all exclaimed, seeing a huge army of Orcs standing in front of them. Behind them was a huge bone throne, an Orc sat on it with a broadsword lying on its lap.
**Welcome mortals to your final resting place, I hope you all are ready to die?** The Orc said with a smirk, showing rows of yellow teeth.
"That thing is a Lv90 Monster! Strong enough to be rank as a Sovereign Medal!" Kay exclaimed, holding his sword tightly.
**Hmm... No answer? Fine by me... Defeat my minions, and I'll see if you can face me.**
"We can do this." Commander Wang held his sword tightly, then pointed it at the Orcs' king.
"We'll have your head, then close this gate!!"
**Hahaha... It will be amusing to see you try! Kill them all.**
"What about now, Commander?" Glen asked.
"Fuck this! Summon your pets! If you can use fusion, do it! This is a life and death battle!! Fusion!!" Dark smoked rose from his feet, enveloping his body, the next moment, a Silver armored man with long silver wings appeared.
Without hesitation:
"Icegon! Fusion Mode!!"
"Zillion! Fusion mode!"
"Mauve! Fusion mode!!"
Half of the group fused with their pets, while the rest summoned one or two pets, then charged towards the huge Orc Army.
**This is surprising.**
___
[East Gate.]
"Which path should we take, Guild Master?" Jasmine asked.
Out of all the paths in front of them, only one leads to the Boss, and the others to their death, the main issue here is; which one is the right one?
"This is a A-Rank gate alright... We don't know what gate is the right one, so we can only gamble." Karen stated.
"Gamble with our life?" Jasmine turned to him with a frown.
"Do you want us to stay here till whatever that thing is entered our city, and leave us here?" He asked back.
Jasmine's face turned ugly, not knowing how to answer, rather, she turned to Daniel.
"We'll go with the Guild Master's choice."
Daniel was silent for a whole minute, then turned around to face his members who had been waiting patiently for his word.
"We must kill this Bastard before leaving this place, so we have to choose a passage..." He turned to the five passages in front of him.
"...We can't pick one, because that one can be wrong, we'll form groups of five, and head to each gate..."
The members looked at themselves with unreadable emotions.
What if four groups picked the wrong passages, and meet their death? How will the fifth group face a A-Rank gate's Boss alone?
"We are 70 members, and have 7 diamond holders and 20 gold medal holders, the rest of us are all platinum... Five diamond holders will form five teams... Each must have four gold medal holders... Now start... Make sure to pick a team which has a member that can fuse with his/her pet, just for safety..."
"We'll go with you Guild master!" Karen and Jasmine quickly stepped forward.
"Both of you are the remaining Diamond holders, So no... You two will have to stay here."
"Huh?"
Everyone was stunned, Karen and Jasmine are both Diamond holders, they will be very useful in the passages... Then why asked them to stay here?
"We don't understand, Guild Master."
Daniel heaved a sigh:
"We don't know which passage is the right one here... You two will wait here with 18 other members and listen, anyone of you who comes in contact with the Boss should yell in the passage... Your voice will echo all the way here, and the twenty of you will head to that passage to assist."
"But..." Jasmine's face was filled with worries. "But, what if you choose the wrong gate?"
"Then leave me, and assist those who choose the right one! We must close this gate, millions of lives are resting on our shoulders, and losing 40 won't make a different!"
Tears formed in all the members eyes.
"Don't even think about crying here! We have faced a lot together, and this won't stop us! Do you understand!!"
"Yes, Guild Master!!!"
They all held back their tears, and nodded with a determine expression.
"Good!! I'm taking the middle passage." He turned towards the passage, and blinked twice, clearing his eyes from any tears that was about to form.
"Good luck, guys! I'll meet you in the other end."
With that said, the five groups of ten each, walked inside the five passages, leaving Jasmine, Karen and the chosen 18 back.
