°°°

Facing the Bone Griffinsʼ attacks, the Divine Unicorns thrust their horns forward like cone-shaped battering rams, which punctured their chests and extinguished their spiritual flames of life. At the same time, the Divine Unicorns stomped their hind legs on the other Bone Griffins. In the blink of an eye, the pitiful Bone Griffins shattered to the enormous impact and fell from the night sky.

Everythingʼs going according to plan.

Alex displayed a smile. If the Bone Griffins were light surveillance aircraft, his Divine Unicorns would be medium-sized attack aircrafts. The parties didnʼt belong in the same category. At the same time, he let out an inward sigh of relief. Normally speaking, the Bone Griffins were the investigative units of the Undead Army while the Gargoyles were used for air warfare.

The Gargoyle Legion was basically the direct subordinate of Death Knights and Necromancers.

At this point in time, Rairhan had dispatched the Bone Griffins and Gargoyles were almost non-existent. This meant that Alexʼs Fortress wasnʼt the main target of their attack. If not, the situation wouldnʼt turn out this way, so it was much better than Alex had expected.

He initially thought that his Fortress was the first line of defense for Paphield and perhaps the enemies might prioritize their attacks. But it seemed like… This group of bastards totally disregarded Alexʼs presence.

But… it was hard to determine if their opinions would stay this way after this battle.

Alex looked down from the city wall.

After two waves of constant bombards, the front troops of Rairhaʼs army were heavily damaged. Even though many fishes had slipped past the net of defense, they were swept away by the torrential current of the moat instantly and vanished to nowhere. Up until this moment, the defense was still solid and stable. But Alex knew that this was only the start of the war and it was going to be a long night.

”Alice, Cecilia. Ready?”

Alex said softly and the two young ladies nodded firmly. He swung his hand to the left and commanded.

”Get ready for the second part!”

°°°

Rairhan had never thought that this battle would be so tough. Thatʼs right. Ever since he had become a commander, he had never experienced such a headache when he fought with the mortals. The opponentʼs aggression had forced his head down. He thought that the Bone Griffinsʼ ambush would scatter the defense and attention on the city walls so he could swarm the opponent.

But he didnʼt expect to face so many alchemy constructs.

ʼDamn it!ʼ

Rairhan was sure that not only was the young man aware of their plans, but he was also prepared for it! It was apparent that the magic arrows had been stored for a long time. In this time and age, every elite squad possessed a formidable weapon. But a regular army definitely wouldnʼt have so many alchemy constructs.

Rairhan was sure that these alchemy constructs were built to deal with his Bone Griffins!

In an instant, this Death Knight was horrified and fuming in rage. He clutched the rein in his hand. His head burned like boiling magma. He didnʼt know what went wrong. It was a top secret for them to ambush thre Mainland, where not even every superior commanders knew about. It was impossible for the alchemy constructs to be produced at the very last minute.

They must have been built for this moment!

That was an instant when Rairhan had thought of retreating to report this matter to his superior. But his pride as an Undead Creatures took the better of him.

ʼItʼs only a small set back, so must I give up?ʼ

”S-Sir?”

Raoulʼs voice disrupted Rairhanʼs thoughts and the latter glared fiercely at the flustered young man. At this moment,

Rairhan suddenly felt something strange going on in the battlefield. The intensive explosions had gradually weakened. He lifted his head hurriedly and gazed at the top of the city wall where torch-like flames were burning. He revealed a malevolent smile. Of course. He knew what those things were: fire arrows.

One of the most common weapons used by Humans against the Undeads.

Instead of worrying about this threatening scene, Rairhanʼs eyes glinted!

ʼAs expected! Their magic arrows are almost used up!ʼ

Rairhan felt a burst of excitement rushing into his head. He finally understood the enemiesʼ tactic. It seemed like the enemies had used the powerful magic arrows to delay their advancements and forced them back. In fact, that was indeed effective. Facing this tough nut to crack, Rairhan had temporarily thought of retreating. But it seemed like the enemies were a spent force!

ʼThey couldnʼt hang on until we retreat! Theyʼve finally used up their magic arrows!ʼ

Even though the fire arrows could also deal a certain extent of damage to the Undead Creatures, such damage wasnʼt as significant as the magic arrows. The next thing that Rairhan could do was to make their move! He didnʼt know if this was a trap or not, but so what if it was? Would the enemies purposely keep their magic arrows and only launch them at a critical juncture instead?

ʼI shall let them realize whatʼs the true assault of our Undead Army!ʼ

”Attack!”

Rairhan ordered with his sword pointed forward. The Undead Creatures gathered and swarmed forward like a ferocious wave that engulfed its way toward the mighty Fortress!

The explosions had stopped entirely. The rain of fire arrows descended from above and shrouded the Undead Army within. But they were an utterly inadequate measure. The Undead Army braved the burning arrows even as they pierced into their bodies. Some of the Skeleton Soldiers collapsed in a body full of flames, but were immediately extinguished as the wave of Undeads washed forward.

The fish has taken the bait. The enemy was moving exactly as he had intended to.

Alex could not stop a small chuckle from escaping from his mouth. He turned and gestured to the two women with a malevolent smile.

”Do it.”
