Strongest Kingdom: My Op Kingdom Got Transported Along With Me Chapter 387 - 386: The Siege Begins

One of the generals clenched his jaw.

"We don’t even have a Quasi Tier 7."

"No."

"We don’t."

The answer ca quietly. The reality was cruel.

If Backwell couldn’t stop the monsters... How could Sodon?

Outside the command hall, soldiers continued preparing for battle.

Many tried to act brave.

Many pretended they weren’t afraid. But fear was spreading, rumors traveled quickly, and stories about cities falling.

Stories about entire armies being destroyed.

Stories about a monster king leading an unstoppable force across the kingdom.

A young soldier standing on the wall swallowed nervously.

Beside him, an older veteran noticed.

"First battle?"

The young man nodded. The veteran chuckled weakly.

"You picked a bad ti for it."

That wasn’t comforting.

The young soldier looked toward the distant horizon.

"Do you think we can win?"

The veteran didn’t answer imdiately.

His eyes remained fixed on the endless plains beyond the walls.

After a long silence, he finally spoke.

"I don’t know."

The honesty sohow felt worse.

The young soldier’s hands tightened around his spear.

"What happens if we lose?"

The veteran stared into the distance. Far beyond the horizon.

Toward the direction the monster army would co from.

After several seconds, he finally answered.

"Then we fight until we can’t."

The young soldier looked down. Neither of them spoke again. Because deep inside... Both of them understood.

The battle for Sodon City would decide everything.

And sowhere beyond the mountains and forests...

An army of hundreds of thousands was already marching toward them.

Getting closer with every passing hour.

-----

Hours later, the defenders finally saw them.

At first, it was only a dark line on the horizon.

Then the ground began to tremble.

The vibrations were faint at first, barely noticeable.

But they grew stronger, and stronger.

Until even the stones beneath Sodon City’s walls began to shake.

The soldiers stationed atop the battlents slowly turned toward the southern plains.

Then they froze.

A sea of black.

That was the first thought that entered many of their minds.

The monster army stretched beyond sight.

Rows upon rows of soldiers marched in perfect formation. Their banners fluttered in the wind while countless weapons reflected the afternoon sunlight.

Hundreds of thousands.

No.

Almost a million.

The sheer number made it difficult to breathe.

The young soldier from earlier felt his throat go dry.

"My... my gods..."

Beside him, the veteran looked equally pale.

"I’ve never seen an army of monster this large."

The walls fell silent.

Even the officers looked shaken. The army continued advancing. Like an endless tide.

Then sothing even worse appeared. Massive siege weapons.

The gigantic machines were slowly dragged forward by enormous beasts and specialized monster units.

Their size alone dwarfed ordinary catapults.

The mont several veteran officers recognized them, their faces turned white.

"No..."

One of them stumbled backward.

"That’s impossible."

"What is it?" a younger officer asked nervously.

The veteran swallowed.

"The Heavenfall Cataclysm."

Several nearby commanders imdiately looked horrified.

The younger officers, however, were confused.

One of them frowned.

"The kingdom’s siege weapon?"

The veteran nodded.

"Yes."

His voice sounded strained.

"The sa weapon that was once considered our greatest siege engine."

Silence spread. Everyone knew the stories.

The Heavenfall Cataclysm was a weapon specifically designed to break city defenses.

Entire kingdoms had feared it.

Countless fortress walls had fallen before its power.

And now...

The monsters possessed it.

A ssenger ran toward the command tower.

"The enemy has deployed a Heavenfall Cataclysms!"

Inside the command hall, the ten generals imdiately rushed toward the observation platform.

The mont they saw the battlefield, their expressions darkened.

The ten generals stood atop the observation platform, staring at the army gathering beyond the walls.

For a few monts, nobody spoke.

The sight was overwhelming.

The plains south of Sodon City had disappeared beneath an endless sea of monster soldiers.

Banner after banner fluttered in the wind.

Heavy infantry.

Cavalry.

War beasts.

Archers.

Flying units.

Siege divisions.

The army stretched so far that the end couldn’t even be seen.

One of the generals slowly exhaled.

"How many are there?"

A scout standing nearby swallowed.

"Our latest estimate is between eight hundred thousand and nine hundred thousand soldiers."

----

On the monster side, the preparations were already complete.

Alix stood atop a raised command platform overlooking the battlefield.

Behind him stood Vordon, Ruk, Varesh, Erel’na, Morgro, and dozens of officers waiting for orders.

Vordon studied the city walls through a spyglass.

"The shield array is active, my lord."

Golden light covered the entire city like a giant do.

Countless runes glowed along the walls.

Alix nodded.

"Begin."

Vordon imdiately turned toward the siege division.

"Ready the Heavenfall Cataclysms!"

His voice echoed across the battlefield.

Monster mages moved instantly.

The gigantic siege weapons were brought into position.

Thousands of high-grade qi stones were inserted into the formation chambers.

The runes carved across the massive weapons began glowing one after another.

The air started trembling.

Even standing hundreds of ters away, soldiers could feel the energy gathering.

One of the younger recruits swallowed nervously.

"No matter how many tis I see it, that thing still scares ."

A veteran beside him laughed.

"Good. It should."

The Heavenfall Cataclysms continued charging.

Brighter.

Brighter.

Brighter.

Then Vordon lowered his hand.

"Fire."

BOOOOOOM!

The first Heavenfall Cataclysm unleashed its attack.

A pillar of condensed energy shot across the battlefield.

The beam struck the shield array directly.

KRAAAAAASH!

The entire city shook, buildings trembled, and walls cracked.

Thousands of defenders nearly lost their footing.

The golden barrier bent inward violently.

A massive web of fractures spread across its surface.

Fear imdiately appeared on countless faces.

Inside the command tower, one of the human generals went pale.

"Impossible..."

The formation masters imdiately poured more qi into the array.

The cracks slowly began repairing themselves.

But before they could recover—

"Second Heavenfall Cataclysm ready!"

Vordon didn’t hesitate.

"Fire."

BOOOOOOOOM!

The second beam erupted forward.

This ti, the defenders knew exactly what was coming. And there was nothing they could do.

The attack slamd into the damaged shield.

For a single second, everything beca silent.

Then the barrier shattered.

KRRRRRRAAAAAASH!

The sound echoed across the entire region.

Millions of fragnts of golden light exploded into the sky like shattered glass.

The city’s greatest defense vanished completely.

The formation masters collapsed onto their knees.

Many vomited blood from the backlash.

The generals on the wall stared upward in disbelief. Only two shots.

Their strongest defense was gone.

Ruk burst into laughter.

"Hahaha! That’s more like it!"

Varesh grinned.

"They’re already broken."

anwhile, inside Sodon City, panic spread instantly.

"The shield is gone!"

"The barrier collapsed!"

"What do we do now?"

"Stay at your posts!"

Officers shouted desperately. But fear was already spreading.

Then another voice echoed across the monster army.

"ro."

Alix looked toward the floating spirit.

"It’s your turn."

The little spirit floated upward. For once, he wasn’t acting playful. His expression beca unusually serious.

"Leave it to , master."

The battlefield suddenly grew quiet.

ro closed his eyes.

Pure power of law began gathering around his small body.

The amount was so dense that the air itself started glowing.

The nearby officers stepped back instinctively.

Even Tier 6 cultivators could feel the terrifying amount of unknown power being condensed.

ro slowly raised both tiny hands.

"Tier 7 Support Skill..."

Golden light erupted from his body. The sky itself seed to brighten.

"Radiant Convergence."

BOOOOOOM!

A pillar of golden light shot into the heavens.

The clouds parted, and sunlight poured down onto the battlefield. Then the blessing descended.

Countless streams of golden energy spread across the monster army.

One soldier after another beca covered in radiant light.

Their fatigue vanished.

Their qi reserves surged.

Their muscles strengthened.

Their minds sharpened.

The entire army seed to co alive.

A Tier 5 officer widened his eyes.

"My strength..."

A Tier 6 commander clenched his fist.

"Still amaze feeling this again."

The buff spread endlessly.

Hundreds of thousands of soldiers received the blessing simultaneously.

The morale of the entire army exploded.

Ruk laughed even louder.

"NOW THIS IS A WAR!"

Alix calmly raised his hand, and the battlefield fell silent.

Then he gave a single command.

"Attack."

The war drums thundered.

BOOM!

BOOM!

BOOM!

The monster army surged forward, like a tidal wave. The defenders desperately fired, spells, skills, and arrows.

But the difference in strength was overwhelming.

The buffed monster soldiers crashed into the city defenses with terrifying montum.

The battlefield instantly descended into chaos.

"Hold the walls!"

"Don’t let them climb!"

"Archers, fire!"

Thousands of human soldiers unleashed thier skills, and spells simultaneously. The sky darkened beneath the barrage.

But before the arrows could land, countless monsters raised their hands.

Wind erupted.

Sheets of compressed air slamd upward and scattered entire volleys of arrows.

Others answered with their own attacks.

Fireballs.

Stone spears.

Lightning bolts.

Water blades.

Hundreds upon hundreds of elental skills streaked across the battlefield.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Explosions erupted across the walls.

Human soldiers were thrown from the battlents as fire engulfed entire sections of the defense line.

Then the true elites entered the battle.

The Tier 6 experts.

The mont the shield collapsed, figures shot into the sky from both armies.

Like teors ascending.

One.

Ten.

Twenty.

More.

The sky itself beca another battlefield.

A human commander covered in lightning exploded upward.

"Monsters!"

His spear thrust forward.

[Tier 6 Skill: Thunder King’s Judgnt]

A massive bolt of lightning descended from the clouds, aid directly at the advancing monster army.

Before it could land, a monster Tier 6 stepped forward.

Wind gathered around both arms.

The monster punched upward.

[Tier 6 Skill: Tempest Breaker]

The lightning shattered apart midair.

The resulting explosion illuminated half the battlefield.
