章節 272: RETREAT TO KALEON FORTRESS

RETREAT TO KALEON FORTRESS

The walls were breaking and the Conjurer's Shield of Enimus was close to exhaustion.

"The wall is about to break soon", Anitor complained to us disappointedly and fearfully.

Right after he said that a section of the wall broke as one of the Flesh Meats rammed into the city. Once it was inside, it broke down again into its hundreds of undead parts.

The zombies from Flesh Meat's body rushed into the city, attacking soldiers, conjurers and basically everyone else.

Soon, the army of demons poured into Tarah city from the opening.

"The city is lost", Ratatouille told me.

"Damnit, it is taking them long enough", I said to him.

"Who are you waiting for to help the city? The apostles?" Chash asked me.

"Eirot and Rinna. They should be sending their Hell Tanks here but it's taking much longer than expected", I told them.

Once the demons entered the city, the scene turned into utter chaos. Even the armies of the Church and the apostles were powerless against the invasion.

"The city is lost", Ratatouille told us his opinion again.

"We should return to Kaleon City and defend the city from there", I told my friends.

"We will also return to the Conjurer Court, we have a secondary shield to protect the conjurer court", Anitor told me.

So, we returned to our respective bases, as the demons ransacked Tarah city.

-----

Prince Geoffraie has already repositioned the city's guards inside Kaleon city after the fall of the city's walls bringing many people in the city with him for refuge from the demon invasion.

"Oriese, what are we going to do now? The demons have entered the city", Prince Geoffraie, the city's governor, asked me.

"We wait for reinforcements", I replied to him.

"But the apostles wouldn't be able to reach here on time", he told me.

"I'm not depending on them", I replied to him.

Suddenly, the buildings in front of the entrance to Kaleon city was demolished almost in an instant as several Flesh Meat monsters broke them. That created a path to our enclosed fortress city.

From the other end, the main demon army was preparing for an assault on our city.

"Infernal Beams"

The demons started to bombard our city with their hell fire conjurations. However, to their surprise, our city was protected by a magic force field that wasn't much weaker than the Conjurer court's Shield of Enimus.

"When did you build such a powerful magic defense in Kaleon city?" Prince Geoffraie asked me.

"Since we started constructing this annex city", I replied to him as he wondered in puzzlement.

Kaleon city was an annex city in Tarah city that was built over a reclaimed forest. Our city was securely guarded since its construction and few outsiders could actually come here, including the governor.

Only during the demon invasion that we allowed the governor and his men to enter Kaleon city.

"You don't seem too worried about the demon army. I am surprised", The governor asked me.

"We have been preparing for this a very long time", I replied to him.

Suddenly, the enormous and meaty Flesh Meats stormed our force field. These monsters were considered the siege units of the demon army, and they were charged with breaking our defense.

"Can we defend against these horrible monsters? Even the Conjurer Court's magic shield couldn't stop them", Prince Geoffraie asked me worriedly.

"Don't worry too much. It is hard to say who is the real monster in this city", I replied to him who became speechless upon hearing it.

"Chash, let's go", I told my friend.

Chash was the only one among us who could face the Fresh Meats in direct combat. He quickly swung his divine sword toward one of the Flesh Meats and disabled it momentarily.

"Dominon of Ice and Fire"

"Spotlights of Truth"

We shone spotlights from the walls of our city toward the undead Flesh Meats, shining holy light toward the enemies.

Our conjurers quickly cast rains of fire over the battlefield to catch the undead that were detached from the Flesh Meats who became vulnerable to the flame.

Only when detached to the Flesh Meat, could the undead body parts that came to life be destroyed and burned under holy magic.

"What about the Flesh Meat themselves? We are only killing the undead splinters. They are not the ones storming the walls of the city, the demons are absolutely bullying us," the governor asked me worriedly again.

"Well, you'll see who the real Bully is in this city", I replied to him.

------

Suddenly, a long, enchanted chain extended towards one of the monstrous Flesh Meat creatures, catching it off guard.

Its initial surprise turned to sheer disbelief as a magical bell materialized at the chain's end, perfectly fitting the creature's head.

As the bell ensnared the Flesh Meat's head, concealed blades within it swiftly started to rotate and grind.

The once still sky erupted into a gruesome display of blood as the creature's head exploded, shattered by the relentless mincing of the bell.

Witnessing the horrifying display, the enemies recoiled in terror, realizing the dire threat posed by the chain and bell.

Their fears were not unfounded, for as soon as the bell finished with its first victim, it seamlessly moved on to the next without pause or respite.

-----

"What is that chain and bell?" Prince Geoffraie asked in horror as he witnessed the battle.

"That is the Chasing Blood Guillotine", Meera replied to the governor.

"Oriese already destroyed three Flesh Meat's heads in the short time he went down to fight with them. How is that possible?" Geoffraie asked.

"The Chasing Blood Guillotine is made from divine artifacts, even the cursed being of the Demon Queen could not defend against", Cassandra replied to him.

Soon, all the Flesh Meats who attacked the walls were beheaded by the Chasing Blood Guillotine.

"Why didn't he use this powerful guillotine earlier in the city. He could have saved our city if he had done so earlier?" the governor asked and lamented.


章節 273: THE HELIOSTAT OF THE CONJURER COURT

THE HELIOSTAT OF THE CONJURER COURT

"The city cannot be saved, so master would not save it. We save our strength for what can be saved", Meera replied to the prince.

"That…", Prince Geoffraie wanted to say something but stopped before he commented, "Now I realize who the real monster is in this city".

Prince Geoffraie wanted to say that we were selfish for saving our strengths for our own people instead of saving everyone in the city.

However, he soon realized that we were not obliged to help them. It was everyone to themselves in times like this. Blame couldn't be assigned for those who do not act benevolently.

"As you can see governor, even master's guillotine could only slow the attack of the monster Flesh Meats. He couldn't defend Tarah city for very long even if he tried to stop these monsters breaching Tarah city's walls", Meera told the governor.

As she spoke, the head of one of the beheaded Flesh Meat regrew from the body parts of undead that poured into it. There were plenty of undead to support the monster because many people were killed in the city.

Before long, the Flesh Meats recovered from their beheading and rammed the walls of our city again.

"What are we going to do now, the Flesh Meats have recovered?" Prince Geoffraie asked worriedly.

"The monster meat is the least we should be worried about", Cassandra replied to him.

Suddenly, the force field that protected our city was exhausted and became ineffective. Our city was ripe for the enemy's attack.

Hundreds and thousands of demons and other militias of the demon army appeared to charge into our city.

"Kaleon city is lost", Prince Geoffraie said to us hopelessly.

When all hope was lost, a sliver of hope appeared.

"Dada…dada…dada"

-----

Suddenly, colossal ships fashioned in the likeness of demonic faces emerged from the shadows behind Kaleon city. Gatling cannons mounted on these ships unleashed a barrage upon the demons below.

"Arggghhhhhh!"

The demons cried out in agony as bullets rained down from the flying demonic faces, piercing through their armor and inflicting severe wounds on their vital organs.

To their astonishment, the demons found that the bullets from these ships effortlessly breached their defenses, often causing critical injuries before they could even approach Kaleon city.

The Demonlords took to the skies, confronting these formidable demon-faced vessels.

With wings outstretched, they stood defiantly against the airships, channeling infernal magic within their bodies before unleashing blasts of hellfire upon the ships.

Much to the demons' dismay, their infernal beams failed to penetrate the ships. The vessels were constructed from materials resistant to the flames of hell, leaving the demons shocked and confounded.

------

"What are these ships? How did the Demonlords' flame do nothing to them?" Prince Geoffraie asked.

"The tide of battle has turned back in our favor", Meera replied to him without explaining.

Suddenly, the powerful Demonlords who could hold themselves against apostles and even Higher Apostles, fell from the sky in large numbers as they faced the Demon face ships, our Hell Tanks.

The demon army were surprised and shocked by the appearance of the Hell Tanks that so efficiently killed their Demonlords.

"It is still too early to be confident, the Flesh monsters are charging into the city together with the rest of the demon army", Prince Geoffraie told them.

Suddenly, a loud noise was heard from the Conjurer Court of Drachia. The roof of the main building of the Conjurer's Court opened as a large piece of equipment rose from the building that rose to the sky.

"What is that thing?" Meera asked but not many recognized it.

"Unbelievable, that is the Heliostat. The strongest weapon of the conjurer court is activated again after centuries of peace", Prince Geoffraie replied to her.

"What is a Heliostat?" Cassandra asked.

------

The Heliostat stood tall, visible from across Tarah city, a grand tower adorned with mirrors arranged in the likeness of an enormous blossoming metal petal flower.

As it absorbed magical energy from the surroundings, the device emitted a faint hum, growing louder as power surged through its mechanisms. Then, with a piercing whir, a concentrated beam shot forth from the mirrors, converging upon a hovering crystal at its apex.

This enchanted crystal absorbed the potent energy, filling itself with the gathered magic reflected from the mirrors. And when it reached its capacity, it unleashed the stored power in a blinding eruption.

The radiant blast surged forth from the Heliostat, aimed directly at the advancing demon horde in the city.

Thus was the might of the "Heliostat of the Conjurer's Court" revealed.

------

[Some time before this]

"This is an impossible battle, the Flesh Meat's head grows back every time we break it", Chash complained to me.

"This is a waste of time", Ratatouille commented about our efforts.

"We must delay the demon army's advance into Kaleon city for as long as possible", I reminded them.

"The Flesh Meats we can deal with but what about the demons behind them?" Chash asked me worriedly.

Suddenly, the force field that protected our city was finally exhausted by the relentless assault of the Flesh Meats and demonic fire bombardments.

"This is the end", Ratatouille commented.

"Damnit, they should be here by now", I complained to them.

Out of a sudden, large ships built in the shape and design of a demonic face with large horns over their heads appeared over Kaleon city.

"They are finally here", I replied to them as my chasing blood guillotine found another victim to crunch and mince its head.

Chash smashed another Flesh Meat with his Sword of Dominon, disabling it for a while.

"Our Hell Tanks are not enough to defeat the demon army, they are too many of them", Ratatouille complained to us.

From a distance, images of crimson red appeared.

Powerful beings born from the blood of corruption emerged, scouring the city for spilled blood to nourish their magic. The Bloodfiends created by the Demon Queen appeared again.

"Hell, how many of these Bloodfiends can the bitch summon?" Chash complained to us.
