God Is A Game Designer - 56 C56 Fleeing from Madness

The air was silent, the beast surrounding him staring at the disbelief. It was a similar power that was deeper inside the burrow, instead, this power was destroying them instead of improving them. This was power stronger than anything they had ever seen.

The first time they had felt fear this strong.

The rampage was terrifying as thousands of beasts burrowed, fled and ran towards the only exit. Fighting a group of vampires was the better options than fighting a man who could carve out the earth better than them. That weapon could obliterate anything in its path.

Nathan watched with disinterest as the beasts scurried away, it would take far to much work to chase them all down. He had a more manageable plan than trying to catch the rats.

He turned from the fleeing rodents as he continued down the central passageway. Senshi fading from his hand as he looked on with determination to complete this job.

Delina heard the rumbling, explosions and detonations in the distance. She felt her heart quaking as she knew that this was the one thing that made her feel alive again.

Jelia felt the same rumbling as she looked at the entrance, keen senses telling her that the ratmen were coming. Her hand was grabbing one of the halberds as she sought to seize everyone’s attention.

“Listen to me. Another wave of Ratmen is coming. Pick up a weapon and get to the front. We shall not give them an inch!”

Delina shook her head as she stood at the head, holding her halberd, swinging the weapon in her fingers as she smiled.

“They are not attacking us sisters. They are fleeing; I can sense fear! It will be a hard fight, but let’s enjoy that they truly fear against something!”

Every vampire coming to the front lines, each one staring down at the entrance as they waited for the foe to approach. Fangs poking out of everyone’s mouth as the scent of blood was sharp in the air, everyone ready for the bloody moment to come.

“Here they come!”

Delina shouted as the first ratmen burst from the corridor, every one of them panicing instead of forming battle lines they merely scurried in every direction.

Arrows flew from bows as the first line of Ratmen fell to the ground, shots to the head still providing fatal as they crumpled to the ground. The next line with haste crawled over the dead bodies as they started to creep up the walls, claws digging into the stone as they tried to flee as fast as they could.

The Halbards came. Next, the massive weapons were smashing into the Ratmen as the heads became caved in, bodies falling and crushing those below them in the process.

The Ratmen who had less fear inside them tried another approach, rushing towards the ramp on the right side of the defence, each one forming up as they ran up the incline.

Jelia turned over, her body rushing with the speed of someone of the night and death as she reached the ramp, vampires firing bows rapidly as they picked off opponents with accuracy that put human sharpshooters to shame.

“Is it ready?”

The young vampire turned, her fangs poking out as her eyes blazed crimson, clearly drunk in the bloodlust.

“Oh, crispy rat coming right up!”

Dropping the bow as she used both hands to grab the cauldron, quickly other vampires followed suit as hot boiling oil flooded down onto the rats, screeching and cries as the beasts struggled in the oil that flowed all the way down the ramp.

“Burn in whatever miserable place you came from!”

Jelia quickly took up a lit torch, tossing it down at the Ratmen, one of them stupid enough to raise its hand to grab it, becoming engulfed in cleansing flames as it began to spread rapidly, screaming renewed as the scent of cooked flesh was everywhere.

“Jelia, get back to the front with some others. We are going to get overrun. It’s almost the entire pack here. How many did he scare away!”

Jelia moved back as she sliced one of the ratmen who had just climbed over the side, almost able to start fighting on the equal ground before getting dispatched.

“Everyone pay attention, let them climb but do not let them stand next to us, we need to hold the high ground!”

Delina shouted to everyone as the vampires responded in kind, more vampires showing up from the gates as they got locked quickly behind them.

Over one hundred and fifty vampires were fighting against an overwhelming force of thousands of these creatures that used to be rats before getting corrupted.

Delina sent a silent prayer to Nathan, not for his safety as she knew he indeed would be fine but more for her vampires.

The entrance still outpouring with large Ratmen as the walls started to breach, new tunnels into the central area with Ratmen climbing inside screeching.

“Hurry Nathan.”

Nathan continued onwards, his body moving along the main path as he stopped seeing so many burrows. Instead, it became rather smooth as he came into an ample open space with clean walls, floors and ceiling.

It seemed to be thoroughly clean without dust, dirt or any vegetation with carved stone. Sitting correctly in the centre brightly glowing with dark radiance was an orb of pure darkness.

It only took a few footsteps into the room before a dark cloud surrounded the orb, forming rapidly as a massive beast stood with the globe embedded into its head as it let out a roar.

It was like the Ratman before except this one was oozing death energy, the same kind as a god. It’s body three times larger than the previous beast as it hand’s were coated in a black mist that seemed to grow stronger as it stood straight.

“I’m the God Mytthicus! You are trespassing on my land foolish one, it’s now time to die!”
