After all, they were not foolish.
The Eternal Knight Empire had so many elite warriors.
If it came to a direct battle, they had no chance of winning at all.
Rather than that, it was better to continue wearing them down.
Thus, both sides, each with their own ideas, began the exchange of fire.
Although it sounded simple, in reality, the scene was terrifying.
Forbidden spell strikes, Legion convergence strikes, meteor strikes.
Any one of these could be deemed a strategic strike, possessing the capability to turn the tide of battle.
At least for the foreign spectators watching, it was so.
It was too insane.
They could not comprehend it.
The Eternal Knight Empire is so powerful.
But why is this indigenous force which has no divine favor also so strong? How did they develop to this point? It's just absurd.
Looking at the scene below, they felt somewhat frantic.
Eternal Knight, aren't you going to help? Seeing the situation, the martial artist chuckled and said, "With just your followers, it seems impossible to take this city anytime soon.
" Glancing at the battlefield, Sushing Yu shook his head and refused a suggestion.
from beginning to the end unless absolutely necessary.
Sushingu preferred not to interfere with the affiliated forces.
Even though his intervention could reduce a lot of trouble and allow the Empire to develop more smoothly, he still disliked taking action, choosing to watch from the sidelines and letting the Eternal Knight Empire handle it themselves.
This was very different from other players.
Most players valued the affiliated forces highly.
If their intervention could lessen the casualties of the affiliated forces, they wouldn't hesitate for a moment.
It's hard to say who is right or wrong.
After all, everyone is an individual and has different views on how to develop the affiliated forces.
Sushingu didn't know how others viewed the affiliated forces.
For him, they weren't fragile like glass, but rather his left and right arms that could grow alongside him.
Since they were his arms, they naturally needed sufficient strength.
How could they grow without experiencing some hardships? Therefore, unless it would lead to significant losses, even if they were dying before his eyes, Sushingu wouldn't lift a finger to help.
And clearly, the current situation was far from reaching the standard of significant losses.
For nearly 7 days, both sides exchanged blows, and the Alliance finally began to struggle.
Although this was their home turf, defending the city was relatively easier than facing the Eternal Knight Army.
The Eternal Knight Army had to consider when the troops inside the city would break out while they did not need to worry because even if the Eternal Knight Army launched a surprise attack, they would first have to deal with the city's defenses.
However, for the time being, even though the Eternal Knight army was very powerful, it was impossible to break through the defensive system built over many years, so they could rest a bit more at ease.
But this was only in theory.
In reality, the Alliance army was besieged within the city, constantly facing bombardment from the magic cannons, while the massive black armored warriors below were watching closely, ready to attack at any moment.
And there was that dark future that seemed to stretch endlessly ahead.
It could be said that every day they endured was a torment.
The pressure in their hearts was immense.
They couldn't live and they couldn't die.
One word to describe it would be suffocating.
In this atmosphere, some Alliance soldiers were nearly driven mad, wishing they could rush out and fight the Eternal Knight army head on.
At worst, they would just die.
After all, considering the current situation, they were doomed anyway.
So why endure this torment? It could be said that as time went by, with each passing day, the morale of the Alliance soldiers decreased by a point.
One must say that humans are truly remarkable beings.
Sometimes driven by sheer passion, they would engage in unimaginable reckless behaviors that they would later look back on with fear.
For example, fighting to the death.
The current Alliance soldiers were still willing to fight to the death against the Eternal Knight Army.
But as time passed and they calmed down, they might not be willing anymore.
The Alliance's generals naturally noticed this, but there was little they could do.
in a makeshift conference hall.
Gentlemen, we need to decide today whether to fight, surrender, or break out.
We cannot drag this on any longer.
Otherwise, before the Eternal Knight army attacks the city, our soldiers will collapse first.
The important alliance, General Bell said to everyone with a determined look.
Damn it.
With so many troops and still using magic cannons every day, how can we sustain the consumption? A nobleman cursed, unable to understand why.
After preparing for so long and defending the city, they were the first to falter.
What good is it to say this now? Make a decision quickly.
The army is already starting to waver.
If we wait a few more days, we won't even have the right to choose.
Another nobleman said irritably.
Those bastard from the Eternal Knight Empire are ruthless.
I thought they would launch a strong attack.
But unexpectedly, a general's face was extremely dark.
The Eternal Knight Empire's tactics this time were completely different from before.
If they continued to attack, no matter how fierce, the Alliance wouldn't be afraid.
As previously stated, it would just be death.
But now, surrounding without attacking, slowly wearing down the will of the soldiers inside.
That was truly disgusting.
No matter how resolute the soldiers were, facing this situation for too long would inevitably lead to wavering.
Surrender was out of the question.
They'd rather die than surrender.
If anyone wanted to surrender, they could wait until I was dead to talk about it.
A peak ninth tier giant looked at everyone with cold eyes.
And even though these people were his companions, he showed no courtesy.
Before I die, anyone who dares to mention surrender will have their head offered as a sacrifice.
Rather die than surrender.
We ve come this far.
If we surrender now, wouldn't he te the sacrifices may be in vain? It's just death.
Let us fight.
Another ninth tier general immediately responded.
You some nobles looked at them, their faces pale, "Duke, what do you think?" Someone looked at the noblemen, their gaze cold, asking softly, "I.
" The noblemen felt a chill all over, realizing that things seemed to be beyond expectations.
I I don't understand military matters.
I'll listen to you then.
Thank you for your support, Duke.
Everyone retracted their gaze, exchanged glances, and nodded slightly, seemingly reaching some kind of agreement.
Let us fight.
Let this city become our grave.
Chapter 203.
Opening the city to battle.
The gap between both sides.
2:15.
The next day, during daylight, it was early morning.
Unlike normal troops who attack during the day and rest at night, the eternal night army, as dark believers, had a completely opposite schedule.
They prefer to launch fierce attacks at night and reduce their intensity during the day.
This abnormal combat timing initially caught the Alliance forces offguard.
However, things had improved significantly now.
The Alliance had adapted to this unusual battle schedule.
