*******
Twilight City was only a level 3 city, so it did not occupy a large area.
When the 10,000-strong kobold troop surrounded the city, they immediately blocked the entire city.
!!
Richard stood on the city wall and looked down.
Above the yellow sand, the moonlight shone on the kobold troop.
Countless green eyes appeared in the darkness.
Even a veteran would feel an inexpressible sense of fear if one saw such a scene.
‘Woohoo!’
The long battle horn sounded round after round.
A murderous aura cut through the night sky.
The atmosphere was as heavy as ice.
The city residents had already entered their houses. They looked at the city walls through their windows in the dark.
They had long extinguished in the room the candles made of oil.
It would be easy for the residents to become the enemy’s target when the lights in the house were on during a night battle.
It was knowledge they had learned in the literacy class. The literacy class not only taught people how to read and write. It also taught them practical knowledge.
Determination shrouded the residents’ eyes.
Many still held crude weapons as they silently stated their choices.
They would never let their lord fight alone. They would rush down to fight the enemy at the first moment when the need arose.
Were they not afraid?
Of course, they were afraid, but so what?
Even if they were to die, they would not dodge!
They were willing to die in battle for Twilight City!
They were fighting for their beliefs!
When the enemy’s battle cries reached their ears.
Everyone began to pray at that moment; for the Twilight City, the great Lord, and themselves.
The people’s will.
Richard had returned to Twilight City from the quicksand.
After he removed the Concealment Power, his figure appeared on the west wall.
He stood at the center of the room, and the city gate was below him.
In a siege battle, the city gate was often the most intense.
The defensive side would no longer have the geographical advantage if the attackers on the side could take down the city gate.
Richard looked into the distance.
The kobold soldiers rapidly approached the city wall with their bloody mouths wide open and sharp fangs exposed under the moonlight’s illumination.
He could smell the cold killing intent.
The war had begun.
Richard waved his hand.
“Sand condensation archers, get ready!”
On this side of the city wall, a squadron of sand condensation archers had all drawn their bows.
‘Yihaa!’ The sound of a tightened bowstring came into his ears. It made his heart tense.
Richard’s eyes glowed as he watched the enemy approach.
It was his first time to set forth command to an official battle while defending a city.
His enemies were players, heroes, and regular troops that believed in gods.
That feeling was completely different from the chaotic attacks of the troops in the wild.
When the enemy approached a certain critical point.
“Attack!”
A cold shout.
‘Bang!’
The bowstring sounded.
The sand formed an arrow that tore through the sky and fell.
‘Hu!’
One of the kobold soldiers that charged felt a sharp pain in its head before it lost consciousness.
‘Puchi!’
Blood spurted out like a broken tap.
Its fellow turned around and saw a special arrow pierced through its head.
There was no fear in its heart at this moment. Its heart’s brutal side stimulated instead.
It roared toward the sky and accelerated.
As the first kobold warrior fell, arrows lunged down like rain.
They nailed the kobolds one by one to the ground.
The smell of blood filled the air.
The kobold’s eyes charged gradually became bloodshot, and the veins on its body popped out.
Its speed increased again.
Meanwhile, the sand condensation archers seemed to have activated acceleration. The moment they released the previous arrow, the bowstring pulled back.
Rapid shots continuously released 30 arrows within ten seconds.
‘Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!’
The arrows were like the grim reaper’s scythe. They willfully reaped the enemies’ lives under the moonlight.
Corpses draped the ground behind the kobold when it reached the city wall bottom.
The kobolds did not carry any siege weapons.
Sharp hoofs that could pierce through armor popped out of their claws after they rushed to the city wall bottom.
Then, the soldiers began to climb up the city wall like geckoes.
The rare-level undead soldiers stationed above saw this scene and immediately threw their tomahawks down from above.
The rare-level soldier of the Axe of the Dead had an attack range of 30 meters. It was incomparable to the 60 meters of the glorious-level.
However, it was more than enough to deal with the kobolds on the city wall.
‘Hu!’
The tomahawk howled.
Although they were agile, the kobolds could only dodge to a limited extent as they were on the city walls.
Twilight City troops struck some kobolds and could not react. Blood instantly splattered everywhere.
They would fall from the city wall and lose their threat even if they survived.
The kobold troops crashed into the city walls like eggs without long-range attacks.
The Twilight troops shattered the kobolds one by one. A few aimed to reach the top of the city wall, others to capture the city wall.
The President of the Secret Society, Chris, who was in charge of commanding the rear, was a level 8 player. When it saw this, it heaved a sigh of relief.
“There’s no quicksand under the city wall…”
It was still terrified of the significant loss it had suffered at the hands of the treant boss.
After the President of the Secret Society got the information it wanted, it looked at the B-rank kobold hero beside it. Chris was proud of this general. Its eyes turned cold.
“Orke, lead three large groups of soldiers and press forward. Take this city down!”
