Calidia nervously looked at the arrival of the Dragon Riders at the northern side of their city.
She was planning to dedicate five shots of Mana Cannon in their area to eliminate most of them. However, after seeing how the leader easily split the beam of light into two, she realized that it would just be a waste of energy…
It is better to save the remaining shots of the Mana Cannon for an emergency situation.
For now, she can only trust the Magicians and the Magic Knights stationed at their side.
"Commander… Should we send Grand Knights Millie and Ceri to their side?" Hirtia, one of the staff who was monitoring the City Barrier's durability, made a suggestion after considering their few options.
Millie and Ceri were stationed on the southern side of the city with a squad of ten Magic Knights. They were sent there since this is their weakest spot at the moment…
Calidia and everyone in the command center just couldn't believe that there are no Barbarian Kings sent to attack them and there are only Dragon Riders from the Black Magic Organization.
It was too suspicious like they wanted to catch them off guard. Calidia would obviously not fall from this trick. Since the enemy is not showing all their forces, she won't be showing theirs as well.
If they concentrated their forces in just one spot, they might suddenly see numerous warships heading on the other side of the city.
"Should we send them?" Calidia asks for their opinion instead.
There are ten people in the command center right now so she wanted to hear what's in their minds.
Rufia thought for a moment before she spoke.
"Let's just leave them for now… Those two are incredibly strong but they will be facing Dragon Riders up there. They might have a few tricks to kill those flying beasts and bring them down but Thyrus can probably do the same thing with his multicasting… For now, we should reserve them in case of emergency…"
"That makes sense… Then, send the support team to the northern gate quickly. If the potions on hand weren't enough, order Rudy and Boeres to take out those in the warehouse."
Rufy and Boeres were Severin's assistants and has access to the potions at the warehouse.
They were probably working nonstop to get the potions distributed to the eastern gate quickly. Nevertheless, now that the enemies have shown in the northern gate as well, they would need more potions and support teams on the ground.
"I sent the order… Sir Vincent also contacted us that they were already on their way… They'll be here in five more minutes."
"Five minutes? That's good… We should be able to hold on for that long." Calidia heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this news.
However, before she could even announce this to everyone on the field, they heard a thunderous roar outside the city…
Boom!
A huge boulder crashed on the City Barrier! It was thrown by a group of sneaky barbarians at the southern gate!
It didn't stop there.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Several boulders that seem to be enhanced with magic continuously rained down on the barrier! Millie and Ceri may be able to slice two or three of them if they go out but it would be very dangerous even for Grand Knights like them.
These boulders that were thrown from a long distance had a force stronger than the artillery guns they are using.
The explosive force behind each boulder wasn't something they can easily ignore…
"How did they get there so quickly?! There should be two artillery guns on that side! Order them to stop those barbarians!"
Calidia wasn't expecting this to happen. Did a portal also appear on that side without their knowledge?
It was possible.
They tried scanning that lush area before but they did not find anyone at all. It was impossible not to notice 50 or so barbarians who are carrying huge boulders.
Since that was the case, they can only blame themselves for being incapable of detecting the appearance of portals with their current magic technology.
The few Magic Knights stationed in that gate immediately operated the artilleries and started firing.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Several artillery shells were used up disrupting the barbarians from throwing another set of boulders.
The intensity of the barrage had also created a smoke screen blocking their view… Because of this, they stopped firing at them and waited for the smoke to clear up…
This only took a few seconds to happen and as soon as they saw the Barbarians again, they realized that they were actually Barbarian Kings!
They do not have tattoos like the Totemic Barbarians they just obliterated but they are all Barbarians with incredible aura around them…
'Kingly Rage is it?' Millie thought as he saw the fifty or so Barbarian Kings…
According to the reports she read before, one King can normally lead five thousand Barbarians. They have a skill called Kingly Rage that allows them to empower the racial trait of those around them.
However, right now, they are seeing fifty Barbarian Kings empower each other with this same ability!
The result was incredible as everyone could feel the pressuring aura looming over the city! It doesn't matter whether you are on the opposite side of the city, you would be able to feel the dense aura that these Barbarian Kings are emitting right now!
"Hey… I don't think we can stop these guys even with the two of us working together." Ceri commented after seeing the enemies racing to the city.
"The barrier is still working… There's also the Tower's Cannon that can help us… We should still try and delay them." Millie replied after assessing their situation. She wasn't nervous or panicking in this situation. Instead, she remained calm and considered their best option.
Two other sides of the city are being sieged so they can't call for reinforcements.
The most they could do is to block the barbarians under the cover of the Artilleries and Mana Cannon.
"Fine… Let's get our revenge, Millie…"
"Of course… We're stronger now. They will not capture us again."
Millie said with a hint of excitement.
