Chapter 233: The Tin Knight and The Witch of Heaven’s Change (3)
Around the Tower of Control, a crowd of over tens of thousands was bustling.
Soldiers in orderly formations. Knights with gleaming silver armor. Mages commanding them with a tilt of their chins.
It was a sight that seemed like a miniature representation of the values held by the force called Control.
At the center. Inside a luxuriously spread military tent, Teur Rognir watched the image of the enemies reflected in a crystal ball.
“They really came.”
Instead of robes and staffs typically associated with mages, a bizarre group wearing suits that enhance the body or swords spewing flames.
A crowd of magic dolls and golems marching as if surrounding them.
Seeing the Tower of Protection’s forces burning with fighting spirit clear even from afar, Teur inwardly sighed.
It would have been easiest if they just fell apart without doing anything.
It was a bit awkward to say this as a commander responsible for the previous defeat, but rather because he was a commander, Teur knew well just how bad the current state of the Tower of Control was.
While the quality might be inferior to Annihilation’s side, the mage force that had been the largest in scale within the Magic State had shrunk to less than half, and the damage to high-ranking mages, who couldn’t be easily nurtured, was at a fatal level.
They had managed to turn back the scales that had once tilted due to the Witch Mombi’s activity, but in other words, it meant they had fallen as a force to the point where they had to rely on Mombi’s individual ability.
