Chapter 494: The Battle for Restoration

Chapter 494: The Battle for Restoration
Demon King Calendar, early May of the year 649.

Weather: cloudy.

8am.

The troops that had been assembled long ago were lined up in neat squares. The footsteps of tens of thousands of people brought a dull echo, like a giant beast pacing.

The soldiers' iron boots stepped on the farmland that had been turned into scorched earth, approaching the City of Silver step by step.

The Enwei Demon Kingdom army currently occupying the Silver City will certainly not turn a blind eye. There are large plains all around, and Viola's army was discovered as soon as it set out.

A large group of people hurried up the city wall, with crossbows strung and swords unsheathed, mixed with the beat of military drums, and a murderous atmosphere arose.

"My loyal and brave soldiers of the Avarus Demon Kingdom!"

Viola rode her horse back and forth between the infantry phalanxes, her voice amplified by magic to ensure that everyone could hear her.

"One year ago, we fled our capital. I never doubted whether we could come back. The invaders will be destroyed and they will pay the price!"

Amid the cheers of the soldiers, Viola continued to shout:
"No one can take away the honor of Avarus. We must fight. We must take back our homeland from the invaders, from the capitulators, from the cunning and ignorant pagans!"

"For Her Royal Highness the Princess!"

"For the Demon Lord!"

"Today is the day we take everything back! The previous kings are watching us! The Demon King is watching us! We are invincible!"

Drawing her sword, Viola spurred her horse forward.

"Soldiers, follow me and attack!"

The soldiers shouted slogans such as "Glory to the Demon King!" and "Follow the Princess!" Tens of thousands of soldiers formed squares of varying sizes and followed closely behind.

They started out by walking fast, then progressed to running fast, and their formation became a little chaotic.

At this time, a ray of light descended from the sky, and all the believers of the Demon God in the army seemed to hear the exciting military music, and seemed to see the angel of revenge with four wings of fire on its back walking with them.

The defenders saw this scene.

For the Enwei Demon Kingdom's army, Viola's troops are all problems.

Even though the morale seemed high, since most of the soldiers came from lords who defected to Viola, their affiliations were too mixed. It was very difficult to just break up and reorganize these people, let alone do any coordinated training.

The second is weaponry and armor. Since the heavy industrial area in the middle is still in the hands of the Enzo Demon Kingdom, Viola's soldiers basically only have leather armor and one or two weapons. To be honest, this level of armament is similar to that of peasant soldiers.

The last disadvantage is the number of people.

The Enwei Demon Kingdom's army guarding the Silver City has as many as 70,000 to 80,000 soldiers, and Viola's army combined has about the same number. They have no advantage in numbers, and the defenders have the advantage of city walls and defensive facilities. Under such circumstances, it is actually very difficult to attack the city.

In fact, the Enwei Demon Kingdom did not intend to hold on forever. The four countries that had originally agreed to divide Avarus, the Subia Demon Kingdom remained indoors, and the Tandron Demon Kingdom had to deal with the rebellion of the Oswaya Demon Kingdom and the Lakshurya Demon Kingdom, which meant that the Enwei Demon Kingdom was left alone.

The defenders planned to wait until the friendly forces in the central occupied zone retreated, and then they would leave the Silver City and return to their own territory.

And it wouldn't take too long, a month would be enough. Viola knew this, but she still chose to attack instead of waiting for the invaders to hand over the city.

Regardless of what Viola is thinking, the defenders must hold on here to the death. Once the Silver City is recaptured by Viola, the friendly forces left in the central Avarus will be cut off. The Enwei Demon Kingdom is likely to lose a large number of manpower and young people of working age. They are not only soldiers but also productive forces. Without so many people, the Enwei Demon Kingdom will not have an easy time.

Even though Viola was at such a disadvantage, she still launched an attack even though she knew she could take back the City of Silver by waiting for a month.

There was only one possibility, and she was sure of it.

The fortifications of the Silver City were not as good as those of the Gate City, but the difference was not too big. A standard circular city had four gates. Viola concentrated her forces to attack the west gate. It seemed that she was planning to break through at a single point, but in fact...

The noisy exclamations of the soldiers broke into the ears of the general defending the city. He looked up and saw a huge hole suddenly appeared in the dark sky, as if the hand of a giant came out of the hole and smashed the soldiers on the city wall below with clenched fists.

The terrible wind pressure was enough to blow people around like a rolling gourd, and the shrill screams and rumbling sounds seemed like the roar of some ferocious beast.

The soldiers who were originally keeping a close eye on the enemy outside the city were frightened and fled in panic. The mortals' fear of giants was activated at this moment.

Viola's soldiers cheered even louder. Now that the gods have fallen, only the Demon King is still showing his divine power, and the Demon King is on our side!

However, when the fist approached a position about ten meters above the city wall, it suddenly stopped.

It was not that the fist itself wanted to stop. The soldiers waiting for the impact opened their eyes slightly and saw something like a transparent shield blocking the fist and them. It did not make any sound, as if it had cut off the connection between the fist falling from the sky and the mortal world at the moment of impact.

The most important reason why Viola was able to restore her country so quickly was the help of a powerful creature whose identity is currently unknown.

The defending generals did not know his true identity, and they did not believe the enemy's talk of the Demon King at all.

After all, the existence of the Demon King has long become something similar to a myth, so the Enwei Demon Kingdom Army does not believe in the existence of the Demon King at all. They only think that he is some kind of powerful creature of unidentified identity.

It could be a powerful wizard, a demigod, or some unknown creature.

The multiverse is a world that creates miracles. As long as the probability of anything happening is not zero, it will happen with the blessing of the huge base number of planes in the multiverse.

So even though it was outrageous, the Enwei Demon Kingdom Army quickly accepted this fact and began to think of ways to counter it.

Compared with the blocking magic circle in the field environment, this time because of the sufficient preparation time and they are still in the city, they have enough time to open more than a dozen blocking barriers. Even if the situation of being shattered like outside the Kaimen City occurs again, there are still plenty of spare magic circles available for use.

All the mages of the Enwei Demon Kingdom's army were transferred to maintain the barrier. They believed that without external interference, it would be impossible for Princess Viola's current army to break through the Silver City.

The morale of the soldiers defending the city was boosted by this. They were not afraid of fighting alone, but they were afraid of this unreasonable and absolute violence. Since there was a way to defend, they naturally would not panic.

In contrast, the morale of the soldiers attacking outside the city obviously dropped, and they even slowed down in following Viola's charge.

Especially the soldiers brought by the lords. Unlike the soldiers under Viola, they have almost no believers and are very aware that without external help, they cannot climb the city wall even at a high price.

This situation is even more unfavorable to Viola.

The giant hand that fell from the sky seemed unwilling to give up and struck twice more. Seeing no effect, it had to retract it. As the force grew stronger, the morale of the soldiers became even lower.

However, just when the defenders thought they were safe, a beam of strong light broke through the dark clouds. It was clearly the warm light of the sun, but it felt a little too dazzling, and it only shone on the city wall...
