Chapter 278: The War that Decides the Fate of 'The Bridge' Part 81

"They're holding on a lot better than I initially expected," Kayn can't help but mutter in a remark.

Along the way here, he was already expecting the walls to have been destroyed and crumbled to the ground, and they have no other choice but to use what's left of it to hold their ground and continue to defend until the reinforcement finally arrives. Yet, it has already been more than thirty hours, probably close to forty, yet the walls still didn't fall.

"Now what?!" Wesley looks at Kayn and Gilbert.

"We go to the bridge," Gilbert maneuvered his horse in the direction of one of the three bridges around the moat.

When they constructed the moat, they specifically built three bridges that directed to the north, northeast, and northwest.

They've chosen the northwest bridge as it is the closest to them.

Obviously, the forces of the Assembly of Freedom had thought of using the bridge to get inside the Dream Village. But, because of how narrow it was and the fact that it is a choke point, they abandoned the idea and went to find other methods instead.

Contrary to them, however, they don't have to worry about it.

"There are so many soldiers ahead!" Wesley expresses his concern.

"Over there!" Gilbert pointed at the part where there were only a few rows of soldiers in the formation.

Kayn, Gilbert, and Wesley didn't hesitate as they charged inside the weakest part of the formation of the Freedom Fang Brigade and made a path straight to the bridge.

Since nobody was prepared for the sudden arrival of the trio, thus there wasn't any sort of defense that prevented them from breaking inside.

Bang!

The orderly formation of soldiers was swiftly disrupted by the charging horses, sending them flying and clearing a path for the trio to reach the bridge.

Similarly to the Freedom Fang Brigade, the forces inside the Dream Village also didn't expect the sudden arrival of these three people.

"It's Kayn, Gilbert, and… is that Wesley?!" Jericho strangely looks at the last person. "Anyways, open the gate!"

Hearing Jericho's order, the gate of the southwest bridge slowly opened.

Seeing the gate opening, the soldiers of the Freedom Fang Brigade stationed close to the southwest bridge immediately started chasing after Kayn's group, intending to get inside the gate and prevent it from closing down so that the rest of their force can get in.

All of a sudden though...

Whaaasssh!

The distant roar of surging waves suddenly echoed across the horizon, rapidly approaching the bridge with great force.

"What the!" Jericho stared with wide eyes at the incoming disaster. He quickly turns to look at Kayn's direction and started waving his hand to motion them to hurry up.

Kayn clearly knows already what was about to come as they have brought it along with them. Hence, he stood up on top of the horse while balancing himself, making sure that he won't fall.

Seeing Kayn's action, Gilbert and Wesley nodded at each other before following.

Meanwhile, the eyes of the soldiers from the Freedom Fang Brigade immediately lit up upon seeing the huge wave as they hastened their chase after Kayn and his group. In their minds, their plan has immediately changed from helping their force to get inside the bridge to helping the crashing wave to get inside the Dream Village.

As long as that huge wave gets inside the Dream Village, it would become easy for their Freedom Fang Brigade to invade all the gates as the soldiers of the Dream Village would be busy taking care of themselves.

Witnessing the strange sight of the trio standing on their respective horses, Jericho quickly understood what they intended to do next, thus he directly ordered the men stationed at the southwest gate. "Slowly close the gate!"

The soldiers didn't understand and thought that they are going to abandon Kayn and his group, making them hesitant about it.

"Just do it!" Jericho exclaimed.

Hearing Jericho's loud outburst, the soldiers no longer hesitated as they started slowly closing the gates.

Kayn nodded his head and quickly grabbed the leash of the horse.

As they got closer to the gate, he prepared himself in order to be ready to jump inside at the perfect moment.

Kayn reminded. "Make sure to pull your horse before jumping," In that way, they can save the horses from getting swept by the wave.

"Understand!"

Gilbert and Wesley both acknowledged.

When they were finally close enough to the gate, Kayn, Gilbert, and Wesley immediately jumped inside. Because their strength was enough to pull a horse, the horses were easily brought along their jumps.

Bang!

The gate closes.

Whasssh!

Quickly afterward, the sound of crashing waves came forth echoing behind the gates.

Whoosh!

Two Mages immediately cast an earth wall spell on the gate to hold it down and prevent it from breaking due to the strong crashing waves.

In addition to that, two pairs of mages respectively went to the north and northeast gates to cover the gates with earth walls.

The roar of the giant wave continued to travel from west to east, devouring anything and everything along its path as if a hungry dragon starved for many days.

Nothing was spared; the bridge to the three gates, the boats, the small bridges, and the unlucky soldiers from the Freedom Fang Brigade who were in the moat.

Boom!

A loud explosion sounded as the wave crashed to the ground on the other side of the moat.

The excess water instantly started flooding the nearby surrounding land and it continued heading in the direction of the Slumbering Forest, tumbling almost every small tree along the way.

As the wave subsided, a downpour of rain ensued, casting a somber atmosphere over the moat and unveiling the destructive aftermath it had inflicted upon both sides.

For the Green Horn Village, only the walls were damaged. And due to the quick response of the mages, they were able to swiftly fix all holes and prevent the walls from crumbling down.

On the other hand, a significant portion of the Freedom Fang Brigade's formation was decimated, with the unfortunate soldiers left lifeless in the moat, their bodies floating as victims of drowning.
