The big Lykos make a howl and the bears began their attack, Alfonso stood there while looking firmly at the Lykos.
"We have three lines of defense, the first one is one that I specially make for the bears, is a good thing that I prepared in the three zones just in case" Thought Alfonso.
The bears, despite their size, could actually run pretty fast. They were just 100 meters in front of the soldiers when suddenly something happened. The ground, that was covered with snow, suddenly tremble and the bears, who were rushing towards the soldiers didn't have enough time to react when they suddenly fell!
The Lykos made a gesture and the wolves that were surrounded the bears stooped their tracks, however some of them were unlucky and fell in the dimple.
"Artemis, SHOOT NOW!" Shout Alfonso.
Artemis didn't think twice and ignited a part of her arrows and then shoot it to the dimple, when the arrow fell on one side of the dimple, all the arc of the "dimple" ignited a became a huge fire that block the advance of the wolves!
"I made Camel and the others made this dimple like they were making a "bed" of compost, first they put the dried wood, then the branches, after that the compost again the dried wood and covered it with snow, this also prevent the wolves, who had a good sense of smell, find it. The bad thing about compost is that is extremely flammable added with the woods it was alike a huge barrel of gasoline, the minimum spark could ignite it! " Thought Alfonso.
The Lykos was taken back for a moment, the bears were growling while their huge bodies began to incinerate, the were being burned alive! The Lykos stay still for just some seconds before giving his next order, the wolves jump in the air and began to run towards the bears.
"What are they... I see! "
While Alfonso was pondering what were they doing, the answer became clear by their next action. The wolves leap up on the bears burning body and use them as a bridge to pass to the other side. It was a marvelous strategy indeed, just a bit morbid thought.
While the wolves were passing the barrier of fire through the bears, the falcons began their attack, they ascend rapidly to the air, because it was dark, just as they ascent a few inches in the air, they disappear front sight. This made the soldiers; how could they fight something they couldn't see?
"Squad one to three, use a defensive position, tactic number fourth, now!" Shout Alfonso.
Like they were a machine, the soldiers group up and lift their heavy shields making a barrier above them, every part of their heads were covered, just as they finish, a chirping sound could be heard and eight of the falcons descended and attacked the groups! Every time their claws clashed with the heavy shields, sparks appear, the soldiers felt the heavy claws of these animals clash their shields and felt glad that they learned this formation, if they tried to resist this attack with just one shield they will probably throw their shields due to the impact, however, now it was like the others were sharing the impact, so it made it more tolerable.
"Artemis!" Shout Alfonso.
Artemis grab her bow and began to point at the falcons.
"Sniper!" Shout Artemis.
Just as she said that, she stretched the string of her bow and an arrow flew, the arrow flew in the air for some seconds and pierced the head of one of the falcons, who, after the impact, fell from the sky.
"This must the sniper ability" Thought Alfonso while looking at the system.
[Sniper (Level 1):
Description: Artemis was born as a hunter, she and her brother, Apollo, were considered the best archers in all the Olympus, even Zeus couldn't say for certain that he could evade an arrow from Artemis without suffering injuries. The sniper ability makes Artemis able to maximize her range of attack and predict the moves of her preys with one hundred percent of certain.
Range limit: 100 meters.]
"Thank god my first ally was Artemis" Thought Alfonso while looking at Artemis who was shooting down the Falcons one by one.
Before he could relax Alfonso, He noticed that the soldiers were already engaging the wolves, they were getting trouble because the attack of the wolves were fierce, and the blades of the soldiers could barely penetrate their skins, obviously, they were different from the wolves on earth, however, something else made them extremely dangerous.
"They are absolutely fast!" Thought Alfonso.
The wolves were too fast! They were going side by side trying to bite someone, if someone got bitten by those huge fangsā¦ they were dead!
"Squad number one, two and three, make the formation!" Shout Alfonso.
"Yes, My lord!" Shout the soldiers while blocking the attack of the wolves.
They rapidly near each other and made a one sole group of fifteen, all of them raise their shields and made a fortress form all sides, the wolves try to attack, but they couldn't shake this "fortress", just went the wolves were backing up, the soldiers took out their blades, put down the Shields and make a stabbing motion with their blades.
"Growl!!" Some on the wolves were pierced by two or more blades before they backed up.
The soldiers made a swift motion and put back the shields, so they make the fortress once again.
This formation was used in an oriental culture, it was a perfect combination of offense and defense, however, to used it, one requires years of practice. The soldiers could barely use it thanks to their experience, the only problem was that they were using blades instead of spears.
It was a quite well-known formation on earth.
"The spartan formation!" Thought Alfonso
