Chapter 394: Monarch (2)
Ghost, the leader of the Crimson Dawn, stood at the top of the fortress wall and looked down at the gorge.
Vulcan muttered quietly from beside him, “3 million... Seeing it in person is truly overwhelming.”
Vulcan had joined Siris Fortress along with the Warriors guild members. Rather than defending the southern region where most of their territories were located, they had chosen to block Siris Fortress. If the eastern front fell, the enemy would flood south in an instant. They had judged that it was much better to face the enemy in a narrow path like Siris Fortress than to deal with enemies flooding in from all directions.
Even if we lose here by any chance...
Their respawn point had been set in the southern territory. They could regroup according to the enemy’s advance and aim for a second chance.
“At least they can’t use those ridiculous catapults here.”
The human suicide bombers that the Black Dragon guild boasted about wouldn’t work on Siris Fortress. The height of the fortress, which filled the gorge, was nearly twice that of a normal wall.
“Besides, we’re more advantageous in terms of food supplies,” Minerva added.
Just as Minerva said, defenders had a much easier time securing food than attackers. In short, those defending Siris Fortress just needed to wait and make sure the gate didn’t break.
“The number of allies currently defending the fortress is 230, 000...”
“Only around 70, 000 can enter the gorge at once. That’s not bad.”
Vulcan remained calm even while looking at the Black Dragon army that stretched to the horizon.
