Chapter 448 The Cheers of Kalunberg

The world of Eslazer, the Kingdom of Skagen, the capital Kalunberg.

On the top of the city, the soldiers defending the city fell to the ground one after another, taking advantage of the idle time in the battle to recover some of their strength.From the scars and tattered armor of these soldiers, as well as the pair of red and rabbit-like eyes, it can be seen that they have been fighting for a long time.

There seemed to be no trace of anger in the red eyes of all the soldiers.The protracted battle and the terrifying enemies beneath the walls have drained all the will to fight from the most elite soldiers of these kingdoms.

If it weren't for the knowledge that if the city was captured by the enemy, everyone including them would not be able to survive, a large part of these extremely tired soldiers would definitely choose to surrender.

At the beginning, many other cities in the kingdom chose to surrender when facing those terrifying enemies.But what shocked everyone was that those enemies didn't care whether you surrendered or resisted, as long as they broke through the city, they would massacre the city.

The cities that surrendered at the beginning, after sending out some desperate magical messages, never heard from them again.The rest of the cities that had been warned began to resist vigorously.But the strength of the enemy is unexpected. In the magic tower of the kingdom, news of the fall of several cities spreads every day.

Finally, three days ago, the enemy attacked the capital Kalundborg.

As the capital of the Kingdom of Skagen, Kalunborg has a relatively strong defense force, so it was able to survive the enemy's non-stop attacks for three days.But even if the royal family sent out the palace guards and used a defensive rotation method, the physical and mental strength of all the soldiers in Kalun Castle had reached a limit.

On the top of the city, there was no sound at all, even those soldiers covered in wounds were already used to pain.The soldiers all knew that they might lose their lives in the next round of the enemy's attack, but they, who were already the last fighting force in Kalunberg, could not tolerate any retreat.

Suddenly, there was a commotion at the base of the city wall.Almost all the soldiers stood up vigilantly, clutching their weapons tightly.But immediately, they relaxed.It wasn't the enemy they expected to attack the city again. The place where the riots occurred was inside the city walls.

Although they didn't know what happened, the soldiers rarely probed out of curiosity to see what was going on under the city wall.They are already the last soldiers of Kalunburg, and it is impossible for friendly troops to replace them in rotation; other than that, they don't care about everything that happens inside the city walls—the only consciousness of the soldiers now is to use Everything of oneself resists the enemies outside the city.

However, to their surprise, the commotion at the base of the city wall grew bigger and bigger, and gradually spread to the top of the city wall.At this moment, a trace of bewilderment appeared in the eyes of the guarding soldiers who had originally had lifeless eyes, and then they began to check the situation one after another.

When they poked their heads out from the city wall and glanced down, an unbelievable thought suddenly appeared in their minds.The source of the commotion was actually armed men who looked like soldiers climbing up the wall!

how come?Aren't we already the last soldiers of Kalundborg?All the soldiers who were still fighting on the city wall knew clearly that there was no army in Kalun Castle at this time.Now among the defenders on the city wall, there are the original city guards, the palace guards, and even the private guards of nobles and ministers.

After three days of fighting, there is no good thing to rotate in batches.All kinds of troops have suffered heavy losses, and in the end only the existing soldiers on the city wall that originally belonged to different troops are left.

Even the royal palace guards and the noble private army lost a lot, and had to mix with the general city guards to defend. Where did these soldiers coming to the city wall come from?

With confusion, the soldiers stood up one after another and prepared to welcome these sudden reinforcements.No matter where the soldiers came from, it was a good thing for them.With more strength, the defense will be easier to score.

But as the new soldiers scattered to various places on the city, they finally revealed their identities.Shouts of doubt or shock suddenly resounded on the city wall.

"Father? Why did you come here?" "Brother! Who told you to come here! Go home quickly, this place is too dangerous!" "Elena?! Why do you look like this?" "..."

The soldiers on the city wall were shocked to find that these "reinforcements" who suddenly appeared were all people they knew.Some found their father, some saw their brothers, and even some women were among the "soldiers" who came to support them.

People who recognized each other hugged each other tightly.During this war, they thought they would never see each other again.And more "soldiers" who came to help, all looked sad.The one they wanted to see again had died.

A burst of excited noise passed, and the original guards on the city wall asked why their relatives or friends came here dressed as soldiers.The answer they got was to keep them all silent.

Their relatives, loved ones or friends were not forced to come to the city wall to participate in the battle as they imagined.In Kalunborg, His Majesty the King personally mobilized and brought the crisis of national subjugation and extinction to the citizens.

Those enemies outside the city are demonic existences that will slaughter every city after they capture it. After the mobilization of His Majesty the King, many people, especially those who know the city soldiers among their acquaintances, have chosen I also participated in the battle.

The king set up an armament department in the center of the city, and distributed armor and weapons to all who would fight.In normal times, things like full body armor are regulated.But these are not important now, it is good to have more combat power.

The original defenders of the city sighed and remained silent.The reason why they fought hard and never flinched in the face of death that would come at any time was to protect these relatives, loved ones or friends who came to the city wall now.

Now, the people they want to protect have also come to face death together, which makes them feel very relieved while feeling uneasy.Even if it is death, being able to die by the side of the person you care about is happiness, right?
The hand holding the weapon strengthened, and the soldiers were more eager than now to drive the enemy back.

While the above-mentioned events were happening on the city wall, the palace in Kalundborg was not peaceful either.King Skarn, in royal robes, walked anxiously outside a door at the top of the mage's tower.

King Skagen has just mobilized the citizens of Kalundborg and mobilized the last force he can. He knows that there is no more power in Kalundborg.Now all he can count on is the enshrined mage inside the door.

Don't get me wrong, although the worship mage who can reach the legendary level is powerful, even with the help of the mage tower, it is still difficult to reverse the situation in a war of this scale.What the king of Skagen had hoped for was the magical message that the consecrated mage would bring.

Finally, with a "squeak", the door opened.King Skagen, who was pacing back and forth, stared closely at an old magician who walked out of the room, his eyes full of expectations and inquiries.

Not disappointing him, the old magician nodded slowly.King Skagen was overjoyed immediately, and let out a low cry in excitement.

It can't be blamed that the lord of a country doesn't pay attention to his image. It's because he's under too much pressure during this period of time.As a king who still loves the people, the news that every city in the kingdom fell and was slaughtered caused a wound in his heart.And the endless enemies outside Kalun Castle made him feel even more desperate.

Now, there is finally the dawn of a solution to the crisis, how can this make him not excited?

Without hesitation, King Skagen quickly entered another room in the magic tower with the old worship mage.It didn't take long for the king's voice to spread throughout Kalundborg with the help of the wizard's tower's constant super-large sound amplification.

"My people, it has been three days. In front of those terrifying undead, we have persisted for three days. The soldiers on the city wall have gradually lost the strength to take up arms, and even I, the king, have begun to feel hopeless .”

King Skagen said these words in a deep voice, which made the hearts of everyone in Kalun Castle sink.Could it be that His Majesty the King is about to give up resistance?Impossible, His Majesty just mobilized the citizens to participate in the battle, and even if they give up resisting those undead, they will massacre the city!

The king's words continued: "However, what I want to tell you now is that the dawn has appeared! Karon Castle, and even our entire Skagen Kingdom have been saved! Master Andler has just been contacted by magic communication. The army of the Night Empire, they are only half a day away from Kalunberg!"

"That's right, the reinforcements from the Night Empire are coming! Persevere, you only need to hold on for another half a day, when the army from the Night Empire arrives, the undead outside the city will be nothing to worry about, we will be rescued soon!"

The whole of Kalunborg suddenly fell silent, followed by cheers from all over the place.There is nothing more exciting than seeing a glimmer of light in the darkness.

The strength of the Dark Night Empire is known to almost all human beings.Now that the elven reinforcements are coming, it means that the danger will soon disappear!Half a day, just hold on for another half day!On the city wall, whether it was the original soldiers or the later militiamen, they once again strengthened their will to fight.

In the mage tower, the king of Skagen was not idle either. He also put the last remaining magic spar in the magic circle to let the enshrined mage guide and cast the magic that strengthened the city wall.In order to save magic spar before, he was not willing to use the super large sound amplification technique on the mage tower when mobilizing.
