Chapter 209: The Wall of Sighs was always breached from the inside

The cavalry charging at full speed is terrifying. Their extreme speed combined with their skilled techniques are enough to crush all enemies under their iron hooves.

But this is a world of the extraordinary.

The runes outlined by magic connected the entire cavalry. The violent original magic turned into docile sheep. The winged cavalry entered full speed and mobilized the magic power in their bodies into magic rituals.

"Light wings spread out!"

As Lancelos gave the order, the decorative wings behind the Winged Hussars spread out, and magical light flashed, turning the wings into huge wings of light, as if they had a pair of white wings, and their speed increased even more.

woo-

The sound of a horn rang out, and the green wind magic merged into the light wings, adding green spots to them. Lancelos then hung the horn back around his waist.

War Horn: Wind Frenzy: It comes with a legion spell and brings swift speed with the blessing of the wind spirit.

The Winged Hussar had already transformed into a streak of light under the second stage of acceleration.

Adam raised his hand, and the closely connected spells gathered the magic power of the knights. A huge dragon lance appeared. He did not hesitate and shouted loudly!

"With thunderous roars, all things come to an end!"

"Shine! Dragon Soaring Death Spear!"

As the real name was released, the golden body of the lance flickered, and tiny lightning bolts entangled and spread out, enveloping the entire Winged Hussar.

Countless flashes of lightning flashed on their white armor and lances, and wherever they passed, there was a charred black of thunder.

Adam pointed his gun into the air, unleashed a huge amount of magic power, and magic arrays gathered together. A dozen cavalrymen in the center of the Winged Hussars chanted spells loudly.

With the cooperation of Adam and the knights, a huge portal opened. The winged cavalry raised their horses' heads, waved their wings of light with the power of wind and thunder, and stepped into the air.

Fly! The Winged Hussars are no longer bound to the earth, but roam the vast sky.

With the sound of wind and thunder, this extremely fast army plunged into the portal.

Wall of Sighs.

In fact, this place should be called Jero Fortress, but it has always stood on the front line, blocking wave after wave of monster attacks, making the Demon King's army sigh, hence the name of the Wall of Sighs.

The commander of the Jello Fortress was a man in his forties, General Semir Sutton.

"General, there are more and more monsters!" his subordinates reported.

"Has the message for help been sent out?" Semir was a little worried.

"It has been sent, but it will take time for the nearby troops to arrive." The officer replied with his head down.

Semir slapped the table and sighed again: "Have you found out the source of the monsters in the city?"

"There was an insider in the city who destroyed a corner of the barrier node, causing the barrier to close for three breaths. Although the magicians in the city were activated quickly, many monsters still entered the city through the teleportation array." The officer replied.

As a strategic pass, the Jero Fortress always keeps the protective barrier open. First, it is to guard against the magical attacks of the invading Demon King's army. Second, under the cover of the large barrier, there will be a magic-banning effect, which will make the teleportation magic ineffective and avoid the outcome of the most powerful fortress being breached from the inside.

But now the worst situation has occurred. Although the monsters that rushed into the city have been eliminated, the opening and closing of the great barrier has caused a loophole. Frequent opening and closing and repairing consumes a huge amount of magic stones. The cost of forced opening is that the magician who has been maintaining the barrier has overdrawn his magic power and body. This alone consumes more than half of the magic group stationed in the fortress.

The flesh and blood attacks of monsters can be resisted by barriers and soldiers, but if a large-scale spell controlled by the demons appears and there are no magicians to counter it, the situation will only get worse. The more likely result is that the Wall of Sighs, which has stood for hundreds of years, will collapse from then on.

Thinking of the consequences of the monsters marching in head-on, even the battle-hardened Semir felt a chill in his heart.

"To get close to the node of the great barrier, we need the consent of two of the quartermaster and magic group commander. How could the demons sneak in?" Semir had a bad premonition.

The officer hesitated for a moment and said, "Some demons used camouflage magic to sneak in when the node was delivering supplies. They had...the warrant of the quartermaster Fake and the signature of the great magician Shupu. The soldiers on guard confirmed that they were all genuine, so they were allowed in."

"Damn it, have they all surrendered to the enemy?" Semir drew his sword and chopped off the table in front of him, then took a few deep breaths and forced himself to calm down.

"Where are those two bastards now? Also, how long can the magic reserve of the great barrier last?"

The officer flipped through the data on the list in his hand: "The Great Barrier can handle the current monster attack for a month without any problem. The magic stone reserves are sufficient, and the soldiers are in good condition now. However, we don't know the exact number of monsters in this wave. Moreover, if high-level demons appear, their magic will greatly consume the power of the barrier."

"As for Lord Shupe and..."

He was interrupted halfway through his speech.

"Samir, I'm here."

As the words fell, an old man in a wizard's robe appeared in front of Semiel carrying a short and fat man.

"Don't talk yet, listen to me." Xiupu said to Semir who was about to speak.

"The bad news is that less than one-third of the magicians in the magic group are in good condition. The good news is that as long as we hold on until dawn, half of the remaining magicians will be able to join the battle."

"The demons destroyed several important nodes, which have now been repaired by me, but I have consumed too much magic power and need to recover." Xiupu said, pointing at himself who looked a little listless.

"The seal on the demon's hand was indeed given by me and Falco. Because I have been practicing magic recently, the signature was given to my disciple. It has been confirmed that he is a demon in disguise for twelve years. I did not kill him and now he is imprisoned in the Mage Tower. This is my fault. I will bear all the consequences alone. I will not run away. Even if I am executed after the war, I will obey."

"That requires us to hold on until victory." Seeing what Shupu said, Semir relaxed a little. He was afraid that the leader of the magic group had surrendered to the enemy, and then it would be all over.

After saying that, he looked at Falco: "What about him?"

Xiupu threw Fake at his feet: "His warrant did indeed leak out from his hands. This idiot took advantage of his position to secretly buy and sell military supplies. He also took out the warrant to ensure the transaction."

He sneered, "It's a pity that he made a deal with the demons. Now not only is his finances at risk, but his life is also at risk. He has dragged down the soldiers of the entire fortress."

"No, no, no, you can't kill me. I am a noble, the Grand Duke's man. Even if I am to be executed, it should be decided by the Council of Nobles!" Facco shouted.

Semir held the sword with hatred, and finally sighed, his hand dropped weakly. Suddenly he remembered something and his heart felt numb.

"How long has he been reselling military supplies? How much has he lost?"

Seeing Semir coming to his senses, Xiupu said word by word, "You are right. Apart from armor, weapons, and food, the biggest shortfall is magic stones. If there were no losses caused by the destroyed nodes, the magic stone reserves could last for about two weeks."

"But now, we can only hold out for three days. If an elite demon shows up, we can completely use up our magic stone reserves before dawn."

"Besides, the demons have been planning for so long, I'm afraid things won't develop in the direction you want."

As soon as he finished speaking, the great barrier began to shake with a roar.
