A Girl's Life in a Gaming World

Chapter 58 - Cavalry

Akkar took a deep breath as he gathered air in his lungs. The air condensed deep inside his steel-like body. His body then blew the air out as his voice echoed across the battlefield. "30 minutes!! Hold on for 30 minutes, and we will win this fight!!" Akkar lied... He didn't even know if Alex and Ezekiel were still alive. But what can he do? They need hope in desperate times. Even if it's a false hope.

He needed everyone to give their all to buy more time. Enough time for him to think of something or for Alex to kill the enemy's commander. 

Akkar crushes every goblin that rushes towards him. Light particles flew in the air every time life was taken. "All melee fighters, with me!! We can't let the goblins breach our walls." 

"Stop hiding and show everyone what you can do!! It is your time to shine!!" Akkar turned around and faced them with a smile at the end of his sentence. This time he is the one that needed to be a role model. 

"Incredible!!" The melee fighter's shoulders trembled as they laughed. "Our commander is incredible." Then a guy with a dual sword stepped out of the shield wall and stood by Akkar's left side. It was then followed by all the other melee fighters. They killed the few goblins first who managed to enter their defenses. 

"Good." Akkar nodded, seeing that at least 90% of the melee fighters stepped up. 

"What are we going to do, commander!?" A player questioned as he struggled to kill a goblin with his sword. 

  As soon as they left the cover of their shield walls. A lot of players are having a hard time coping with the goblin's rampage. They are now experiencing what their frontline has been enduring all this time. 

The melee fighters start to doubt Akkar's decision to fight on the frontline. All of them felt that they couldn't even last for a minute in the frontline. 

  After contemplating what to call his plan, Akkar uttered. "Cavalry... We will become the cavalry!!" It was the only plan he could think of in just a short amount of time. He believes that it should be enough to ease the burden on their shield wall. 

"Cavalry?"

"Cavalry???" 

"How can we become a cavalry without a horse???" Everyone looked at Akkar as if he had become insane.

"We're going to run around the battlefield!!" Akkar answered as he stormed through the goblins. He called it cavalry because he couldn't think of a better term. He thought that they should have understood it. Since they are going to do the same thing. What a cavalry does on a battlefield. 

"Follow me!!" He just needs everyone to trust him for now. He isn't even sure if they'll follow him. But if they do, he will definitely make it worth it for everyone. 

Everyone looked at each other first before following their brave commander charging alone to the army of goblins. 

It's just a game; no one dies, so everyone trusted Akkar and followed him without any hint of fear. 

Besides, what Akkar is going to do looks fun. Everyone did not realize it, but they felt envious of Alex and Ezekiel. They both looked like they were having fun when they fought the goblin army. 

"Follow the commander!!"

"For the commander!!" 

"For the village!!" 

Akkar smiled when he heard everyone's battle cry. He suddenly remembers a fun memory he had with his viewers a long time ago. It is the same situation, All of them gave him blind trust in a war, but it is all he needs. "Ooooorahhhh!!" The melee fighters started there 

The first thing he needs to do in his plan is to have everyone gather behind him. So they can keep moving to avoid being surrounded. 

Akkar knows they can't stay in one place. Because they will be surrounded by the goblins in a few seconds without their frontline's support. 

However, they can't move their shield wall. Because their main forces the long-range attackers will be in danger of a wipeout. If they leave them defenseless. 

As they marched with him. Everyone swung their weapons left and right, clashing against the goblin's rampage. They were like a lawnmower exterminating the goblins to create more space to move in. 

There are unfortunate ones who got left behind and died, but everyone needs to keep on moving. 

"Keep going!! Keep going!!" Akkar said as he cleaves 2 goblins in half. 

"In my signal, I want everyone to throw their skill in front of you at the same time!! And push all the way!!" 

It is now time for Akkar's next plan seeing that everyone is now sticking close with him. 

"In 3!! 2!! 1!! Pushhhhhh!!! Northeast now!! Northeast!! Throw your SH*T at our northeast!!" Akkar's ordered echoed throughout the battlefield. As he leaped in the middle of the goblins.

Everyone who had an active skill poured everything they had on their northeast. While everyone who didn't have an active skill followed Akkar as they attacked their own ways. 

At the same time, Elder Jin also followed the command Akkar had given to him before he left. The command of the long-range attackers has been given him. 

"Magic Division!! Fireeeee!!! Support them and fire at southeast!!" The magic division fired simultaneously as all kinds of magic rained upon the goblins on the southeast side of the melee fighters. 

He first did not know why Akkar told him to use the magic division's skills in a coordinated manner. But when he saw their stampeding direction. Elder Jin understood that he needed to create a space to retreat in. Once all of their abilities were on cooldown. The magic division is perfect for this job creating a space by obliterating all the goblins in one area. 

"Now retreat to our south!!" 

"SOUTH!!" 

"SOUTHHHH!!" 

"DON'T GET LEFT BEHIND!!" Akkar was shouting and repeating his commands with all his might. For everyone to hear him with all the noises on the battlefield. 

A few players were slow to react got drowned by the sea of goblins. While those who were able to follow him felt the adrenaline in their body as their heart pounded faster and faster.
