Full Engagement.
The clash didn’t last long before the Tier 4 mages quickly made short work of their foes, it didn’t matter if the goblin they faced was even in the Tier 5 realm, if it got caught by them, all that awaited it was to be impaled by a flurry of long-range weapons. While many wondered how the Gordons were so skilled at this, despite it clearly being their first time fighting in such a cavalry-based style, Alec simply smiled, as only he knew the truth behind their fast progress.The main secret behind their prowess lay in their training, and more importantly, the influence of Alec’s system. All the mages under him had received the Basic Equestrianism skill, after training with their golem mounts. The lowest among them had already reached level 3 in the skill, and it didn’t just improve their riding—it enhanced everything tied to mounted combat: balance, speed, coordination, reaction time, and syncing with their golem mounts, all this had only been possible because of the influence of
Gordons Calvary.
“Fire!” the sub-leader of the Tier 3 mages shouted, and in perfect unison, the mages launched their earth spears like javelins, each projectile shot forward with deadly precision, impaling targets on impact. Without pause, the mages conjured new spears and hurled them again, targeting fresh enemies with terrifying speed.With Earth Spear being a basic spell, it had a minimal mana consumption, but the Gordons had long pushed it to the limits of the Low Tier due to the training Alec had them on. Empowered to the peak of the low-rank tier, the spell now carried explosive force, and with over a hundred Tier 3 mages unleashing them simultaneously, as the hill turned into a thundering storm of destruction.The air filled with rapid bangs as explosions tore through the goblin ranks, smoke erupted across the field. Alec’s training regimen had drilled near-instantaneous casting into them, and now the results were devastating, as the could just instantly cast the earth spear again and aga

The moment the separated goblin army began heading toward the Gordons mages who stood atop a makeshift earth hill they’d conjured through elemental manipulation, Marcus felt a surge of satisfaction. As even if Alec had intended to avoid the battle, he’d be forced to intervene now. Marcus silently hoped that this time, the Gordons would finally lose at least a portion of their forces, as the only reason they’d maintained their elevated status for so long was that most of their members always survived the Blood Moon unlike the other clans. And those survivors—seasoned by each event, were the very veterans that made the Gordons clan so deadly in large-scale warfare. “Tier 1, 2, and 3—execute the first plan,” Alec ordered calmly, without even bothering to look up, as the three sub-tier leaders stepped forward with the surrounding mages parting, giving them space to advance. Alec had already drilled them through multiple scenarios, and now it was time to act. The goblins, seein

“Don’t you think it’s really time to move the mages of the clan?” the fourth elder eventually asked Alec the moment Marcus left.He was genuinely concerned that the city’s forces might be wiped out if things continued this way, but Alec simply shook his head.“Definitely not. It’s not time yet. I’m still observing their formation, trying to learn more about them so I can craft the perfect tactics when we finally engage them in battle.”“I’m sure you can also tell that this set of goblins is much stronger than the ones we used to face, but they’re still not an impossible army to defeat,” Alec added, eyes still fixed on the battle unfolding below.After hearing Alec’s reasoning, the fourth elder didn’t press further, and the third elder hadn’t cared to begin with, Alec had already promised he’d get the chance to fight to his heart’s content, and that was enough for him.As more time passed, the high-rank human mages started to realize that the Gordons high ranks might really not be join

The battle between the humans and the goblins erupted as expected, with the city guards leading the charge and clashing head-on with their Low rank goblin counterparts.At first, the goblins were at a significant disadvantage due to the sturdy shield formation of the city guards, but as more goblins pressed forward, they began to break formation and veer off to the sides.From those flanks, they rushed toward the other Mage clans positioned behind the city guards, the sudden shift forced the mages from the various clans to hastily cast their spells, sending waves of bombardments forward in an attempt to thin out the advancing goblins.Initially, the tactic worked, but as the battlefield filled with corpses, the goblins simply used the fallen as stepping stones, charging over their own dead without hesitation, in some instances, groups of two or three goblins even carried corpses in front of them like makeshift shields, determined to close the distance.This level of coordination and t

It was finally the day of the Blood Moon War, and as usual, the other clans had already assembled outside the city gates waiting, this time, however, the city gates didn’t appear battered and worn like they had during the last Blood Moon battle. That was because the zombie horde had failed to breach them in the last war, giving the repairmen time to continue their work uninterrupted from where they had stopped.By now, the city gates had been fully restored, though at a steep price, as the city lord had emptied much of his personal savings to make it happen, with the clans no longer leaving beast corpses for city hall to process, one of the city’s primary income sources had dried up, forcing him to shoulder the burden alone since he had spent all that was given by the capital to boost his strength.As always, mages from the city hall led the frontlines of each Tier battlefield. Though the Gordons Clan had announced they would participate, but even as the battle was fast approachin
