Chapter 1274: Sudden Reinforcements
"Yes! At fucking last!" Sara's mother shouted out of excitement, couldn't believe she finally got the chance to learn about the formation and how to make it without paying or begging for it, "what? I'm happy we have the upper hand on them at last."
"..."
Everyone looked at her in a very suspicious way. She didn't show up till when William came. And she showed weird excitement, one that made everyone realise her aim from being here, not to help but to learn.
They all looked at William, but the latter looked as if he didn't notice anything. "The formation is formed of twenty-five groups, each group…" William started to speak about the foundation of the formation.
In fact, Sara's mother knew all of this. And even when he narrated the needed materials to use in every hole, she could already say all of them without missing a single one.
Slowly her excitement died down, and instead got replaced with a look of doubt and disappointment. Her last hope shattered when William ended his talk with saying:
"This is it! Just do as I said and leave the rest to me."
"Mfer!" Sara's mother couldn't control herself anymore, "you lied! You didn't tell us anything of value, bastard!"
"Who said I'd do that?" William evilly laughed, "come on, let's go and do our part in this battle. Others are risking their lives down below, and we have a short window to act before Lingerie fixes that portal."
Everyone gave Sara's mother a weird look while they moved after William and followed him through one tunnel. It was clear like a sun in the middle of a clear sky, that Sara's mother was after learning the formation secrets, not here to help!
This entire battle was directed to help her live through the upcoming enemies attack. And despite that, she never showed a single speck of appreciation, nor the will to step up and help!
It was a very complicated situation, only Sara's mother and William knew the ins and outs of it. She knew William framed her, forced her hands into such a situation. And so she didn't see any of this as helping, but instead a way to further deepen her legs into the muddy water.
She didn't know what was in it for William to help in such a way, but she was sure he must have a great gain from doing this or else he wouldn't do any of that in the first place!
She was the best one reading his mind, even among all of his friends who accompanied him all this time.
It wasn't weird to not see her following them down to the portal area. She knew she wouldn't get anything of value out of William. The latter was determined to keep the juicy part of how to lay the formation only to himself!
She was right indeed. When William decided to ask everyone for help, he made up his mind on only sharing the basic type of help everyone could offer to make the formation.
As for the most essential part, of how to link the materials together using spirit power, he decided to keep it for himself. It wasn't just only for Sara's mother's presence, but also the lack of an essential skill that everyone didn't have. Discover stories with m,v l'e-NovelBin.net
To do such a thing, they needed to learn how to project their spirit power in needle shaped lines. This wasn't an easy trick to learn, and it was literally impossible to learn it in this low world.
To learn such skill, one had to have a purified spirit power in his body. Trying to learn this using the impurified spirit power in this world would end up with spirit power getting shattered and falling apart.
As they stepped into the portal area, the situation there looked more tense and deadly than what William himself imagined!
Without the help of the Humming Bird formation, the two sides were directly clashing against each other. Even if the masters coming from the other side of the portal were far stronger, they still weren't accustomed to the limits enforced upon them by this world.
Using numerical, morale, and tactic understanding advantage, Fang and Sloth led everyone to slowly crush the outer world masters. But that didn't come without paying a hefty price in terms of great losses on their side.
Be it dying or getting severely wounded, the number of masters on Fang and Sloth's side was getting crunched slowly by the outer world masters.
That was good until the portal flashed and another batch of reinforcements arrived. This time, the batch didn't have a couple of thousand masters, but a whole lot of fifteen thousand masters!
There were already five thousand masters from the outer world in the portal area. Adding the newly joined ones up, the entire lot was now around twenty thousand! It was a staggering force to fight against, especially when the other side lost many of their top masters and elites!
"Just in time!" Yet when that disaster happened, William finally arrived. Seeing him get into the portal area with lots of his guild masters, made Fang and Sloth feel there was still hope.
"Don't tell us we are going to retreat!" Fang was the fastest to go to where William was, followed by Sloth.
"We had them, were this close when the portal gushed out tons of those bastards!" Sloth was frustrated. The big win was in their hands to grasp, and yet the sudden incoming wave turned the tables around!
He hated how the situation turned around when the win was in their pockets already!
"We will keep pushing," William responded in a serious tone, "provide protection for us, we'll start surrounding this area with the weakening formations first."
"Hell yeah!" Sloth clenched his fist while Fang shouted in excitement, "let's show these bastards that our world isn't a pushover! Let's fcking go!"
Seeing William coming here, saying these words, inspired even the top and old masters here. Everyone thought it was the best move to retreat, and yet when William mentioned the formations, they all got hyped again!
