Chapter 87: 94 Overwhelming Victory

After Marcus had managed to defeat the ice ant royal guard he nearly fell into despair as the ants were climbing over the walls of River Landing.

Luckily though, the ants were stopped by a powerful mage that had created a blast of sound that killed every ant within a hundred feet of the city wall.

Seeing this impressive feat Marcus no longer felt despair and could tell that the town would be safe since this mage had just demonstrated a level of power far above anything he had ever seen.

'I do not know what tier spell that was or what level she is but that old lady just wiped-out thousands of ice ants with one move. I wonder how long it will take me to get to that level of power.'

With the security of River Landing assured Marcus reverted to his ghost form and floated back towards the wall of River Landing to watch the rest of the show.

While he was making his way back to the wall, he saw the two mages next to the old lady that had repelled the ants fly off in the direction of the ice ant queen and her guards.

Marcus watched the two mages' epic battle with the ant queen and the thousands of ants protecting her, and was incredibly impressed by the power of their spells.

'Those two are also incredibly strong, the spells they are using must be tier five spells since the destructive power they have are well above mine. This just shows that I was getting too overconfident with myself. There are still plenty of monsters like them out there that are far stronger than me.'

Marcus continued to spectate the mages do battle with the ice ant queen and her forces when seemingly out of nowhere a bear the size of a small aircraft carrier fell out of the sky and shook the entire battlefield.

The ground began quaking and splitting in the area around the bear causing fissures in the ground to form that swallowed up scores of ice ants.

'What the hell is that… wait there is a guy riding on top of that things head. I remember now Joras told me that the knight commander of the kingdom has an epic grade magic beast under his command called a glacial bear. Except I thought that meant it would have some ice-based abilities and powers not that it is the size of a small glacier.'

Marcus stared out in awe at the massive bear and could even feel the powerful aura the creature emanated.

However, as strong as the glacier bear was its master was even more so as Marcus watched the Knight commander leap off the bear's head and pull out a massive ax.

The knight commander then swung his ax and a massive blast of green energy shot forward towards the ice ant queen and caused a huge explosion that blew her and her royal guards apart.

Marcus' mouth stood gaping open unbelieving at the sight of raw power that had just been unleashed.

With the addition of just four people and one magic beast the tide of the battle had turned, and River Landing was no longer in peril of being run over by monster ants.

With the death of their queen every single one of the ice ants could feel their connection cut off from her and they began moving around in a frenzy.

No longer receiving any orders the ants fled, many heading back towards their nest while others simply went in random directions.

'Looks like it's over now. Those four really are incredibly strong to be able to turn the tide in just a matter of moments. Hm now that I look at it, those fleeing ants are just free exp for me to farm now that I do not need to worry about the town being overrun.'

Seizing the opportunity Marcus floated back towards the battlefield where the ants were fleeing and started systematically eliminating the strongest ants he could find.

He stared going after the tank sized ants hitting them with his tier three lightning bind spell to hold them in place before he unleashed fire shots on their helpless bodies.

Once he had managed to kill around two dozen of the tank sized ants this way, he found that there were no more of them left so he set his sights on the remaining soldier ants he could find.

After around thirty minutes of exterminating the fleeing ants Marcus heard the familiar sound of a level up.

'You have leveled up to level thirty.'

A big grin creeped across Marcus' face as he had finally made it to level thirty and now had a new supply of skill points to use.

'It has been a while since my last level up, they keep getting harder to get as the exp I need gets steeper and steeper. While I would love to slot all of these skill points into some of my combat skills, since I plan on learning how to craft weapons using my forge skill, I should probably save them.'

Having made it to the next level Marcus no longer continued his slaughter of the fleeing ants as the only ones left within his effective range were in the single digits and practically worthless for someone of his level.

Turning back towards River Landing Marcus floated back towards the city that had just managed to survive an assault from thousands of ice ants.

Once he made it to the wall, he turned off his ghost abilities and became tangible and visible again.

He then began walking towards the front gate so that the soldiers could see him return after he had leaped off the wall to intercept the ice ant royal guard.

When he came to the now destroyed gate the soldiers and knights that were guarding it looked out at Marcus with surprise.

They all wondered who this young girl was that had managed to survive beyond the safety of the walls.

However, when they got a better look at Marcus, they could see that his right arm was missing up to the elbow.

One of the knights immediately ran forwards and took a healing potion out of his magic bag, and when he arrived in front of Marcus said, "Miss you are badly hurt drink this and then I will lead you to the emergency medical station."

A bit surprised to see the sudden arrival of one of the knights Marcus looked at the bottle in his outstretched arm and took the bottle and downed its contents.

Marcus immediately felt the warm sensation of the healing potion and his arm actually started to heal at a visible rate as the potion stimulated his natural regeneration.

Unfortunately, that single potion alone only helped to regrow his arm by a few inches, and he was going to need about another full day before his arm was fully recovered.

The knight who had handed Marcus the potion looked at his arm in complete disbelief since the normal healing potion he had given should not have been able to regenerate part of a lost limb.

Marcus seeing the shock on the man's face said, "I happen to have a regeneration skill and it seems your potion has helped me regrow my arm a bit faster. I will be fine after a day of rest so no need to worry about me anymore."

Marcus walked by the stunned guard as he stood outside the gate with his mouth hanging open from the incredible sight he had just witnessed.

When he walked through the now destroyed gate many of the guards and soldiers looked at him wondering where he had come from.

Marcus hoping to quickly go find Lilia and make sure she was safe tried to leave the area around the wall but was intercepted by the old man he had seen defending the gate when it was first breached.

"You there young miss please wait. I am General Erastalven of the Borealia Army, would you mind identifying yourself."

Marcus looked at the general with a look of annoyance since he really just wanted to make sure Lilia was safe, but immediately realized that offending the leader of the kingdom's northern army would not be in his best interest.

Marcus opened his mouth and was about to responded when he heard a loud shout from his left side that interrupted him.

"I see her, it is the darklight princess, she has returned safely."

Marcus looked over to where the man who was shouting was and could see a bunch of soldiers and guards beginning to clamor and come towards him.

When the group of men got closer, Marcus recognized some of them as the soldiers and guards that had been fighting with him on top of the wall. Apparently, they had given him the cringy nickname of darklight princess.

Sighing Marcus realized that this was probably going to give him a massive headache later as more and more of the guards and solders approached him.

Of course, as they got closer and saw who Marcus was with, they immediately straightened themselves out and saluted the leader of the army in River Landing.

Erastalven seeing the group of over four dozen soldiers and guards that had started a commotion after seeing Marcus looked at one of the soldiers and said, "Soldier report, who is this woman and how do you know her."

The young soldier gulped before promptly responding, "She is the person that held the section of the wall that lost its mana supply during the battle. She dropped down from the sky and unleashed a powerful spell onto the ants before they could climb over the wall. She is also the one who intercepted the massive flying ant that attempted to breach the wall. Without her sir the city of River Landing certainly would have been invaded before reinforcements arrived."

The general then looked at Marcus with a newfound respect in his eyes as he had seen the massive explosion of darkness and ice in the sky between Marcus and the royal guard ant.

"Well then miss sorry to hold any suspicions of you, I am eternally grateful for the service you have provided for this city. If you would not mind coming back to army headquarters with me, we can come up with a suitable reward for your act of heroism."

Dollar signs stared to form in Marcus's eyes wondering what rewards he could get, when he heard a familiar voice say, "Erastalven are you trying to poach my subordinate out from under me."
