(Diao Chan POV)
Everything was turning out to be quite disastrous.
I was originally supposed to follow the second rotation of troops to relieve the first group alongside Gamma, Cai Hong and Eris, but now that plan was rendered moot by our wall collapsing way before we anticipated.
And since the princess has blown the horn, everyone will be pushed to the fight immediately instead of rotating out in reserve.
It was already our final stand before we knew it.
I rushed ahead of the soldiers, muttering a Spell under my breath that propelled me onto the roof of a building where Lian Li was standing.
"How is it?" I asked.
She didn't answer and instead jerked her chin in the direction of the Dong's army.
I followed her gaze and froze.
"About another hour till dawn comes… I fear we may need to use your trump card earlier than expected, Diao Chan."
The end is coming.
