This was no fair fight. In equipment, Martial Arts, courage, and sheer size, the soldiers of the Guard Army were completely and utterly crushed by the Beastmen.
The moment the two sides collided, the front line of the Black Stone Castle Guard Army collapsed like dominoes. It happened so quickly that the men behind them had no time to react before they too followed suit.
In the first moments of contact alone, the Guard Army was cut down in waves by the Barbarians, suffering devastating losses.
They tried to raise their swords to parry, but the Barbarians swung their War Axes with the force of a hammer on an anvil, smashing through their blades and crushing flesh and steel together.
On the rare occasion their own swords managed to land a blow, they left behind nothing more than a harmless scratch.
In the wake of High Cliff Castle's advance, the ground was littered with severed limbs, which were quickly trampled into a bloody paste by the soldiers following behind.
