time lost

The Red Mine was one of those unpredictable events this last time, as the matchup was different from the beginning of the week, so the enemies could be new or old acquaintances. Vangark, as always, was in front of the mine at dusk, waiting for those who wanted to participate to arrive. He knew that his role as leader of the K276 kingdom was not only to give orders, but to ensure that his companions had the opportunity to achieve a place in the rank and advance in raising the weapon to four stars. That time, it was Raymond's axe, useful for training and at four stars gives five thousand more army men.

Upon summoning his companions, Arthurion, Uriel the Great, Sigrid and Paco arrived. The usual tactic was that, at the beginning, Vangark and Arthurion would be there to hit the enemies, making sure that the rest of the members could take advantage of the time needed to add minutes in the mine.

The battle began with Paco on entering the mine and staying in rank as long as he could to add minutes. However, the intense pressure of enemy attacks soon began to take its toll. It was a member of the MDB Alliance who kicked him out.

-Will you try again,- asked Vangark. The answer was a resolute -no-. -That's enough for today. I'm going to rest,” said Paco, showing no signs of frustration. He knew that the next day he would have the opportunity to stay longer, but it was already too late for him.

It was then when Uriel the Great took his place, after Vangark hit the intruder. The battle was not long in coming. The members of the BTA and MDB Alliance, began to attack with force, and in a coordinated manner as the members of K276 do. Quickly, Vangark hit the attackers, using his spears on other spearmen or cav wielders. After the blow, Vangark gave the signal so that his partner could return to the mine and continue adding time.

The battle, although intense and always in favor of the king, gave the respite that Uriel needed to hold on for several more minutes. Until the enemies intervened again, this time with a strong warrior in infantry, the king's spears could do nothing against him. And so as not to change lines he asked Arthurion to intervene. It was easy for him to displace that enemy with his cavalry. Vangark suggested him to stay there for a long time, to dispel any further enemy attack.

That seemed to work, Arthurion did not receive a single attack and with that Uriel returned to the mine, but a few minutes later, Sigrid, who was waiting, asked for her turn. Vangark, gave way to his friend, so he could stay as long as necessary. Forty-five minutes or an hour had been requested by the king, so that both could secure a place.

The permanence of Sigrid was strangely calm, nobody attacked him, it was only when he withdrew and Uriel re-entered that the adversaries of the MDB and BTA Alliance did not take long to make their appearance and return to fight, it seems that they were determined with him, the strange thing is that Uriel only placed T1 troops, he did not risk troops of a better class. At this point, it was when Vangark saw that the situation was starting to get out of hand, so he asked Arthurion again to intercede, he immediately intervened with his cavalry and drove his opponents back. 

With Arthurion in the mine, the enemies were forced to retreat. Uriel wanted to go to rest, he only stayed a few more minutes and then retreated. So after that, he left his alliance partner in the mine. Vangark asked Arthurion to continue helping those who wanted to stay, he nodded.

The next day things were quiet. Only during the time when everyone was resting were the enemies able to occupy the red mine. Paco was able to get the second place, but the third and fourth were taken by the enemies. Vangark asked Arthurion what had happened, as those times were easy to overcome. -There was no one there when I asked,” he answered immediately and Paco backed him up, ”I also asked more than once and got no answer.

Vangark knows that both Uriel the great and Sigrid only fight when the event starts, but the others can be there the next day. So once the mine was finished, he asked everyone not to waste these instances, especially when it is easy to get a place in the rank, even if you only get a chest, it is one more step to get the weapon.

Despite the difficulties, Vangark was confident that the strategy of working as a team would still work, and that his kingdom mates would get the message. In the end, although not everyone was able to be in the top spots, the perseverance of the K276 kingdom ensured that everyone who was present was able to obtain a weapon chest.
