Chapter 207: Demonstone of Malice
Facing the gaze of all the Ghost Beastn, Douglas wore a faint smile.
"The Demonstone of Malice has absorbed enough souls. It's ti to shatter the crystal!"
Hearing this, the group of Ghost Beastn showed expressions of excitent.
Ten years ago, the demons already had the ability to break through Garrison Fort.
The reason they fought back and forth with humans ti and again was solely to let the Demonstone of Malice absorb enough souls.
Now, the Demonstone had finally devoured enough.
------
Eastern Border Territory of the Irisis Principality.
The Ogre Mountains, Windward Valley, Garrison Fort.
The news of the demons' invasion shrouded Garrison Fort in a tense and oppressive atmosphere.
Early in the morning, the black stone walls were filled with soldiers clad in blue armor, ard with long spears.
In addition to the soldiers, there were nurous adventurers and temple priests.
A glance showed the wall densely packed with figures.
"Are they really coming?"
"They're really coming!"
On a section of the wall, so adventurers were engaged in heated discussions.
This was the first ti the demons had approached the fortress walls.
In the past, Earl Mors would always launch a preemptive strike.
He utilized the complex terrain of the Ogre Mountains to engage the demons.
But this ti, Earl Mors chose to rely on the walls for defense.
"Why is there no support from the Papal States?"
"In past large-scale demon invasions, the Papal States would send Holy Canon forces. Why is there no sign of them this ti?"
The Papal States had six major Holy Canon military organizations:
The Radiant Canon, the Shadow Canon, the Marsh Canon, the Blazing Canon, the Earth Canon, and the Wind Whisper Canon.
They corresponded to the six elents: Darkness, Light, Wind, Fire, Water, and Earth.
Each mber of the Holy Canon was a top-tier powerhouse.
If the Temple Knights were the conventional ard forces of the Papal States, then the six Holy Canons were elite units.
At this mont, on the wall above the main gate of the black stone walls.
Earl Mors stood in silver armor, holding a sword and shield.
Sandra, on the other hand, wore a sky-blue robe and held a staff.
"Dear, is there any news from the Papal States?"
The absence of Holy Canon forces troubled Sandra.
In previous wars against the demons, the Papal States had never been absent.
The six Holy Canons practically took turns showing up.
Without the Holy Canon powerhouses, humanity's combat effectiveness would drop by at least half.
Elite powerhouses played a vital role in wars.
And every mber of the Papal States' temple was an elite powerhouse.
Captain-level mbers were even king-level or saint-level entities.
Earl Mors's face darkened as he gazed intently at the distant gorge.
"My lady, I'm afraid the Holy Canon forces won't co this ti."
"Why?"
Sandra looked puzzled and confused.
In the past, the Papal States never missed a war against the demons.
There was no reason for them to miss this one.
"I received news from the duke that the Papal States are lobbying all nations to launch a holy war in the Outer Realms. They need a defeat to warn the nations and push them toward closer cooperation. Garrison Fort has beco the perfect sacrificial pawn."
Her husband's explanation made Sandra's heart sink.
She hadn't expected Garrison Fort to beco a pawn in the hands of powerful figures.
Nor had she anticipated that the Irisis Principality's critical eastern border stronghold, Garrison Fort, would be abandoned.
"Dear, I'm sorry. If only I were stronger..."
Sandra lightly tapped her staff on her husband's back.
"My love, protecting the people is also my responsibility. No matter what, I will stand by your side!"
Her words brought a self-deprecating smile to Earl Mors's face.
As a man, he found his wife more clear-sighted than himself.
Earl Mors took a deep breath, his gaze sharpening.
"Then let them co!"
As his words fell, a sudden sandstorm rolled at the end of the gorge.
It looked as if a sandstorm was sweeping in from afar.
"They're here! It's the demon army!"
Exclamations echoed along the walls.
In the distant gorge, a black torrent surged forward.
The arrival of the demon army caused the soldiers on the wall to tense.
Their faces turned pale as they gazed at the vast, dark mass of figures.
Even with the tall walls beneath their feet, the overwhelming demon army filled them with dread.
As ti passed, the demon army drew closer to Garrison Fort.
Their marching formation gradually shifted into an offensive line.
Just as the demons approached the walls, a few figures appeared on a distant mountaintop.
Standing at the peak, Li ng gazed at Garrison Fort in the distance.
"What a tall and massive wall. The magical world is truly fascinating!"
The nearly fifty-ter-high walls resembled a great mountain blocking the gorge.
From afar, the towering walls looked imnsely majestic.
Conquering such enormous walls with ordinary siege equipnt seed impossible.
Breaking the walls or destroying the gates were the only options to breach Garrison Fort.
But breaking the walls was easier said than done.
The walls were entirely black, clearly made of magic-absorbing stone.
Weaker magic could not shake the walls.
Even a million goblins would likely be powerless against those towering walls.
