People like Farry who spurned the Unfallable Pill were a rarity

But seeing that he looked decently spirited, Jodel didn't think any deeper into it—fretting about his own survival was hard enough on this battlefield, let alone others

Eight days had passed since the truo, their line of defense had still been outside of Gust Castle The coun and cannon fire ress any further However, with the passing of ti all over their for in between Gust Castle and Metalstone Ridge, turning the weakly defended region into a Red Mist region Although the Aerial Knights attempted to stop them, it was to little effect

When the demons relied on these 'Fortress-like Monstrous Beasts' and launched a pincer attack from the two flanks, the fire of the cannons was scattered In order for the troops to avoid being surrounded, they retreated backwards to their subsequent for fire

These events repeated once more

The incessant attacks by the enemy caused everybody to feel an enormous pressure, their break times shrank froh the rear received a few reinforcee that it was plain to the eye There were atat the front line, while the assaults that the demons launched on them basically all consisted of over twenty thousand What's o around the defense line and directly charge in the direction of Cage Mountain Although it was impossible to understand the situation back there, clearly they were not in a good position

Three days ago, the front line troops received a command for the entire army to retreat into the city

At the same time, the deer, this was undeniably a signal: suggesting that it was likely that Metalstone Ridge, which was on the west side of the First Army, had already fallen, and they were next

The next day, the enemy broke past their line of artillery for the first tie battle with the soldiers

At this point, this war had become entirely a battle of wills

Jodel looked at the dilapidated short wall hundred of ed outer city wall of Gust Castle was now filled with holes, and its surface was filled with hanging demon corpses The blood that poured out of the corpses dyed the wall in a layer of eerie and ghostly blue
