Chapter 954: Chapter 597, Soul Coffin_3
Watching the dead soldiers, the Bone Giant severely damaged, couldn’t stand up under the crushing pressure of the shells.
Boom boom boom!!
Explosion after explosion echoed from within the city.
Odys suddenly turned around, only to see streaks of fire lighting up the city.
It was coming from the direction of the arsenal.
Boom boom!!
...
Another explosion went off, this time at the South City Gate.
Explosions and combat broke out throughout the city.
Countless Undead swarmed into the streets, all rushing towards the South Gate.
…
“Watch out for the Bone Dragons…” someone else shouted.
Several hundred Bone Dragons, led by a desiccated Giant Dragon, flew directly over the city.
Soaring at low altitude, beams of red and black light swept across the city walls.
Clearing away the Undead guards on top.
After one sweep.
The walls were empty of any living being.
And more Bone Dragons circled around, spewing black beams of light, enveloping the Bone Giants within them.
Their massive bodies began to decay, the iron chains draped over them turning to orange-red molten iron, dripping downward.
Eventually, like ordinary Undead, within the black beams of light.
They turned to ashes.
East City Gate.
A black, towering storm began to swirl and spread throughout the city.
Everything in its path, whether troops or buildings, were reduced to ashes in the storm, disappearing without a trace.
More and more Undead, marked with red on their chests, stormed the city walls.
Like a deluge, they covered the walls, spreading into the city.
The enemy had launched their final assault.
It was over; they couldn’t hold out.
“My king, we can’t hold this position, let’s retreat from the South Gate,” a Skeleton officer said, pulling at the somewhat dazed Odys.
“Right, gather the troops, follow me in the retreat,” Odys said, coming to his senses and shouting loudly.
He dashed down from the city wall, running towards the South City Gate.
Along the way, he encountered quite a few soldiers who had scrambled down in panic.
They quickly gathered, nearing a thousand men.
The city walls, without command, could no longer withstand the assault of the army.
The city gates were flung open in an instant, an army like a flood pouring through.
They slaughtered their way towards the Royal Palace at the city’s center.
…
South City Gate.
Odys, with nearly two thousand battered and beaten soldiers, rushed frantically toward the South City Gate.
Behind them was an enemy surge like a Tsunami.
After a mad dash, abandoning helmets and armor, they finally saw the barricades set up at the South City Gate and the soldiers guarding them.
Odys paused.
These barricades and soldiers were all here, so what was that explosion about.
And how did those fleeing get out.
Without time to think further, he had already run up to the barricades.
He yelled, “Quick, open the gates, come out with me.”
However, under the anxious eyes of Odys and the accompanying Undead.
Several more barricades were added in front of them.
Blocking their way.
“What are you doing, has everyone lost their minds? Move these barricades and open the gates,” Odys demanded furiously, kicking the barricade in front of him over.
The soldiers next to Odys couldn’t care less anymore.
The enemy was right behind them; they all reached out to remove the barricades themselves.
“Are you Odys?” At that moment, from the city gate, a tall Skeleton stepped forward.
Odys was startled and immediately drew the Giant Sword from his back, eyeing the other warily.
He could confirm that this Troll Skeleton was not one of Black Horn City’s own.
Then there was only one possibility, when the South City Gate was opened.
These enemies had sneaked in.
“Who are you?” Odys demanded, staring straight at the other.
“Quite obviously, your enemy.”
