Dc: The Brother of Superman

Chapter 65: Invasion (5)



It's been two days since Commander Braza and his soldiers came to Fort Gorn, and at last everything was ready.

Now all they had to do was wait for the horde to arrive, but that was not all. Some secret orders were given to specific individuals due to the recent information provided by the commander.

"Look for any suspicious activity and report back."

The order was vague on propose in case the traitor had any associates on their ranks, and patrols were more frequent around the Fort.

Around noon on the third day, the alarm was triggered.

*Ting* *Cling* *Ting* *Cling*

... immediately everyone on the fort took their positions, and the two commanders positioned themselves on top of the front gates.

"So this is it..." (Commander Thorn)

He saw the thousands upon thousands of monsters that were running towards the fort at full speed, almost as if they were running from something.

"Yes, don't get distracted; as we planned, I will go inside..."(Commander Braza)

He also saw this, but he thought it was just natural for monsters to attack, or maybe the demon leader ordered them to do that.

"Understood"(Commander Thorn)

_______________________________________

Inside the Fort...

Commander Braza was moving directly to a specific place, with everyone saluting and moving out of his way as he passed by.

Protecting an air of calmness and confidence on his way, but inside of him, he was everything except calm.

(Where is that f*cking rat?)

(I swear by the goddess I will kill him!) (Commander Braza)

The closer he was to his destination, the more angry he became.

(I will not let you escape this time!) (Commander Braza)

*Tap* *Tap* *Tap*

His boots were loud in the empty hallways, then he notice.

(Where is everyone?) (Commander Braza)

He looked left and right, but nobody was around.

(Impossible! Where are the patrols and guards!?) (Commander Braza)

With more quick steps, he ran through his destination, which was the safe room for the nobels and families that lived on the Fort and it's surroundings.

**********************

"So that's Fort Gorn, huh?"

Isaac, on top of another giant golem made out of soil and rocks, was chasing the horde.

*Ting* *cling* *Ting* *Cling*

He could hear bells ringing all over the fort.

(Probably some sort of signal.)

He watched as the horde collided with the barrier around the fort. From above the walls, archers and mages were attacking and casting spells left and right.

*Bang* *Crash* *Boom*

But then something caught him off guard...

*Clang*

*Flang*

*Fiuuu~*

...a giant metal ball was launched out of one of the catapults of the towers; its direction was where he was standing, or more specifically, it was directed at his golem.

(Right, if I also saw a huge golem with a horde of monsters, I would do the same.)

*Sigh*

"Punch it"

Isaac ordered his golem to punch the metal ball that was coming directly at them.

*Growl*

The golem moved its body, putting its right foot backwards and its left foot forward, then its giant right arm was moved backwards. It waited for the perfect time, and when the metal ball was in range, it moved its arm along with its hip, gaining massive momentum.

*CLANK*

*BANG**BAng**Bang**bang*

The metal ball was punched directly into the horde below them; it bounced a couple of times.

*Gia* *Grrr* *Guaagh*

Thanks to that, a couple hundred monsters were killed without their even noticing.

"Ho, ho,ho,ho, that's no ordinary golem, Commander!" (Mage Cron)

"...I can see that Cron"(Commander Thorn)

At the top of the gates, the Commander and the Mage were looking at the giant golem that they believed was the boss of this horde.

"Sir, your orders!" (Soldier)

A soldier came running from the left tower of the fort.

"Well, it is smart enough to deflect our attack..."(Mage Cron)

He peaked below, then looked at his commander.

"...at the cost of its allies (Mage Cron)

Commander Thorn was worried not only for the giant golem in front of him but also because Commander Braza hasn't sent any response since he left.

"How do we eliminate it?" (Commander Thorn)

He resolved to tackle one problem at a time.

"Ho, ho, distract it a little bit; I need some time (Mage Cron), he confidently said.

"You hear him(Commander Thorn) He looked at his soldier.

"Yes sir!" (Soldier)

*Growl*

*BANG*

*Growl*

*BANG*

*Growl*

*BANG*

Isaac was using this misunderstanding to kill a lot of monsters that were attacking the fortress; ball after ball was falling into the ground. The monsters didn't know what to do; without their leader, they were just mindless beasts.

(Huh?, this feeling?)

In the middle of these actions, Isaac felt something inside the fortress, making him lose sight of his surroundings for a split second.

"[Seismic Toss]"(Mage Cron)

Coincidentally, the mage Cron used one of his more powerful spells, the ground beneath the golem started to bulge.

*GROWL*

It lost its balance, but that wasn't all.

*CRACK*

The ground started to split apart, and from there, some huge rocks started to come out.

*RAWRGH*

These rocks launched the giant golem backwards with such force that the golem flew 60 feet into the air.

*BOOM* *CRASH* *BANG*

The golem crashed into the ground; its right leg was destroyed, along with his left hand, and it stopped moving at all.

At the same time...

**KABOOM**

...a huge dark red energy explosion destroyed the interior of the fortress, killing at least half of the forces inside it, if not all of them.

********************

*Cough* *Cough*

"What the f*ck happened!?" (Commander Thorn)

Due to the explosion, many soldiers were scattered all over the fortress, and a huge dust cloud was blinding all of them from seeing inside.

*Cough*

"A dark energy burst out of the fortress, Thorn..."(Mage Cron)

He came out of the dust cloud looking a little bit weaker; after all, casting a huge spell and then protecting himself from the explosion drained him a lot.

*Aggh*

"My leg..." (Soldier)

*Awwgh*

"My arm..." (Mage)

*Tap* *Tap*

Despite all the growling and moaning of the soldiers and mages hurt by the explosion, a set of footsteps could be clearly heard.

"Cron..."(Commander Thorn)

*Shink*

He immediately pulled out his sword.

*Tap* *Tap* *Tap*

*Cough*

"Yeah.."(Mage Cron)

He pull out a ruby wand and pointed at the set of footsteps.

*Tap* *Tap* *Tap*

From the epicenter of the explosion, someone came out; it had a humanoid figure, but it was definitely not human.

It was at least 10 feet tall, with blue skin, dark red eyes, grey hair, a couple of long and pointy horns on its head, two long bat-like wings on its back, and long extremities.

Now that the figure was close, they could hear something else...

*Graggh* *Gagh*

Another figure was beside it, but this figure was being choked with its right hand. When the Commander and the Mage saw this figure, they quickly recognized it.

"Braza!(Commander Thorn, Mage Cron)
