Chapter 539: War Outbreak (2/2)

“It’s fine. Let Grandmaster Yi and Charlotte stay here to wait for Ayin. The rest of us should go to the stronghold walls first.” Ferguillo calmly spoke.

Stingham rolled his eyes and suggested, “Why don’t I stay here as well?”

“You bastard! You still want to slack off!?” Meraly immediately exploded, “No, anyone else can stay, only you cannot!”

......

“Metal Shield Brigade assemble! Equip!”

“Flying Messenger Fish Brigade assemble!”

“Sky Scar Brigade assemble!”

“......”

A mysterious flow was sweeping across nature in the distance. The atmosphere in the entire Fearotz Stronghold was completely boiling.

Over a thousand Corps arcane masters were assembled under a tall metal wall facing the Kingdom of Doa.

The buzzing stronghold suddenly became quiet.

“Ayrin and Rinloran......”

The frustrated Stingham followed behind Ferguillo and climbed the wall using the narrow staircase.

Although he detested Rinloran and Ayrin for constantly annoying him, now that they were not with him, he felt uncomfortable as the three of them had always fought together.

Arcane teams and artifacts filled the top of the wall.

Stingham felt it was too crowded and grumbled, “Why are there so many people? Shouldn’t the arcane masters spread out as far as possible in battle to prevent the enemy from wiping out a large number with a single powerful arcane skill?”

“That’s the case in an open-field encounter or sudden assault, but it’s completely different in a siege defense. The large number of artifacts will not give the enemy any time to prepare a powerful large-scale arcane skill. The initial stage of this type of war is attrition. When the artifacts from both sides are more or less exhausted, the arcane masters will be forced to exhaust their arcane particles which they cannot recover within a short time. The enemy will then make a force assault through that opening. Only at that time will the decisive tactical arcane masters be joining the fray. At the current stage, we must ensure a certain level of arcane master density on the walls. This is to prevent the enemy from using blitzkrieg or aerial assault methods to wedge into the wall and conquer this line of defense. This wall provides a great defensive utility. However, if the enemy captures it, they will enjoy the advantage of a high vantage point.” Shanna quickly explained in detail.

Nobody mocked Stingham at that moment.

It was because two strange floods had already appeared on the plain in the distance.

“What’s that?”

Everyone focused their attention on the towering structure within the Sequoia Corps.

Elsewhere on the wall, Mody calmly stared at the tall structure with unknown uses.

Based on its appearance, it was a mast made of a huge red tree trunk. The bottom half was covered by curtains which also hid its method of transportation.

On the platform of the centermost structure within the Sequoia Corps, an arcane master wearing a thin, silver full plate armor was staring at the ancient and majestic stronghold.

He looked to be about thirty years old. He had a handsome face, but his lips were naturally crimson. Hence, even though he was wearing full plate armor, he gave off a creepy and cunning feeling.

On the opened up scroll in his hands, the information of the Acting Corps Leader Mody was recorded.

“Mody, male, thirty six years old. Passed the Royal Thorns Corps recruitment at the age of eighteen, entered the Flying Messenger Fish Brigade...... Became the third scouting team captain at the age of twenty...... Became the Third Assault Brigade leader at the age of twenty five...... Became Acting Corps Leader at the age of thirty six.”

“What a strange profile...... I still feel surprised and interested no matter how many times I see it......”

The arcane master looked at the scroll in his hands again and muttered to himself, “What kind of experiences and abilities allowed you to be trusted by people like Emila and Philp despite being a brigade leader, and get voted to become the Acting Corps Leader? Such an interesting fellow...... I’m also looking forward to fighting you......”

“Lord Divana!”

A tall arcane master appeared behind the silver full plate arcane master and deeply bowed.

The tall arcane master wore thorned, dark red armor. Each spike on his thick armor was half a meter long. It made him look horrifying.

Divana smiled and ordered, “Farok, first wave will be Gale Brigade.”

“Gale Brigade?”

Farok showed a look of surprise. However, he did not hesitate, “Understood!” He immediately turned around and passed down the order.

The two massive armies creeped towards Fearotz.

The Undead Corps maintained a steady march.

Suddenly, streaks of light shot out from the dark red flood-like Sequoia Corps!

There were almost a hundred arcane masters who were so fast only their afterimages could be seen. There were special artifacts attached to their feet which greatly improved their acceleration.

Those flying arcane masters clearly knew all the entrances of the metal wall. They immediately dispersed into groups and approached the five shut entrances. Previous ChapterNext Chapte
