Idle game leads to another world.

Chapter 501 It’s a sure thing
The magic circle looks high-end, but in principle, it is very similar to a circuit board, except that it is a channel for energy transmission. The only difference is that one guides electric current and the other guides magic power.

It is not easy to set up a magic circle. If there is any mistake, you have to start over again and cannot be careless at all.

But it is very simple to destroy it. As long as a small part of it is damaged, causing excessive accumulation of energy, the magic circle will basically lose its effect. And the excessive accumulated energy will eventually be released in the form of an explosion.

Hill's troops acted separately, not caring at all whether they could kill the mage who maintained the magic circle. Once they found the magic circle, they threw a row of alchemical bombs at it, and then continued to rush to the next target without even looking.

The sound of explosions continued to echo in the City of Silver, and one blocking magic array after another was removed.

The general defending the city has returned to the royal city and is organizing troops to defend and fight street battles at various intersections. Of course, he also heard the explosion.

This is not a good sign.

Then the messengers kept sending back news that the barrier array had been destroyed and the mages who maintained the array had suffered heavy losses.

The general's heart skipped a beat again.

It’s broken. The last line of defense is gone.

The original plan was to defend the Silver City for a month, but now it seems that it is a question whether we can defend until nightfall.

After losing the blocking magic circle, the soldiers guarding the other three gates on the city wall had become complete targets.

The general is now very doubtful about whether his Demon King's decision to join forces with the other three Demon Kingdoms to invade Avarus is correct. This matter is very strange in itself.

The Avarus Demon Kingdom and the Enwei Demon Kingdom have no territorial borders and no conflicts of interest, so it was strange to suddenly send troops, but the desire for flat land made the Enwei Demon Kingdom not hesitate, and the general did not hesitate when he received the order.

Now that I think about it, it might have been a wrong decision for the four countries to send troops at the same time, and the Enwei Demon Kingdom should not have gotten involved in this mess.

But it's too late to say these things now. The general wants to go back and ask His Majesty the Demon King why, but the prerequisite is that he can go back.

He immediately ordered the soldiers at the east and north gates to evacuate and enter the city to prepare for street fighting with Viola's army. He also sent reserve troops to defend the remaining barrier barriers, trying to save as many as possible.

As for the South Gate, the general ordered it to be kept as hidden as possible, leaving only soldiers to keep the gate open. This was a retreat for the Enwei Demon Kingdom army.

Leaving a retreat route itself means that there is already a plan to retreat. There is no time to wait for the soldiers in the central part of the Avarus Demon Kingdom to come back. The general's most important task now is to ensure that the tens of thousands of soldiers under his command do not make any mistakes, otherwise the Enwei Demon Kingdom will not have any troops that can be mobilized for a long time.

This is an extremely dangerous signal.

The general who was giving orders immediately felt the light coming from the window dim. Through the window of the castle, he saw a huge arm that seemed to be able to hold up the sky and the earth hanging from the clouds. Its fingers swept across the streets in the distance as if it was itching. It was not difficult to imagine what this hand was doing.

Time is running out.

–‐‐——–‐‐——

After Viola's soldiers entered the west gate, they did not launch an attack immediately, but rested on the spot. They waited until the fifth hour when the first horn sounded, and then they began to advance.

This undoubtedly gave the enemy time to prepare, but it also avoided uncontrolled casualties caused by reckless advances.

Looking back, when Viola was awakened by the noise in the palace and ran to the terrace to watch, the soldiers of the Four-Nation Alliance had already entered the city, and Viola could even see the helmets of the enemy soldiers.

But this situation is almost impossible to replicate, and it is generally impossible to push it that fast.

When the Four-Nation Alliance attacked the City of Silver, most of the troops in the city had followed Viola's father to the front line, leaving the city defenses empty, so the city was quickly breached by the Four-Nation Alliance's attack.

But now, the Enwei Demon Kingdom’s army still has some combat effectiveness. Rushing in rashly would be equivalent to getting beaten. It would be better to take a rest and recover their strength.

Wendy used this time to redeploy and assign the marching directions of different troops. She forgot that more than half of Viola's troops were from the private soldiers of various lords. It was fine when attacking the city from outside, and everyone worked side by side. Once entering the city, it was necessary to advance on multiple fronts with small groups of troops, and it was very likely that there would be a quarrel over the command rights of different nobles. After all, it was now the most critical moment for the restoration of the country, and these noble lords also wanted to make contributions to the establishment of the country, and each of them worked very hard.

Although some time was wasted and the pace of attack was not fierce, but instead a strategy of gradual erosion was adopted, the advancement speed was still not slow.

Especially when Wendy learned that the Enwei Demon Kingdom army had begun to retreat from the east gate and the north gate and was preparing to defend, she knew that the battle was basically won.

The other side has already started to retreat, and people will not fight desperately when there is a way to fall back. This is not only a military strategy, but also human nature.

The only thing they need to guard against now is to prevent the other side from causing too many casualties to Viola's army during the retreat. After all, there are still many troops from the Enwei Demon Kingdom in the central part, and soldiers will be needed to encircle and suppress them after the restoration of the country.

Apart from anything else, the only thing Wendy is worried about now is Viola.

"Where is the princess?"

"Forehead……"

The messenger hesitated, but Wendy understood immediately.

She couldn't help but hold her forehead with her hand. This princess really made people worry...

–‐‐——–‐‐——

Although Wendy's orders were to proceed steadily and gradually, it was easy to get carried away as the fight went on.

It's not just the nobles who want to make meritorious deeds. Soldiers also want to make meritorious deeds. Even if they can't become nobles, being an officer is better than being a private.

This impetuous atmosphere is not a good thing for the army, but they have their reasons for being impetuous.

On some streets, Oldie summoned huge fireballs to fall from the sky, directly blowing away the enemy positions at the street corners.

On some streets, the white dragon breathed out, and the soldiers who tried to counterattack were instantly turned into ice sculptures. Viola's army only had to follow up and smash them to pieces.

On other streets, several guard golems cut the tendons of war elephants in no time. As the tall war elephants fell to the ground with a thud, the guard golems shouted:

"Your Majesty's will guides my sword!"

"Death to the heretics!"

"Your blood will adorn my armor!"

Then the soldiers rushed forward and finished off the enemy who were still breathing.

What's more, the street was blocked by heavy crossbows, and then a huge arm descended from the sky, and with a light sweep, the whole street became quiet.

The decision to abandon the city walls and try to engage in street fighting was not a big mistake. If it were an ordinary army, it would definitely be entangled and it would not be able to be resolved in a few days. At the same time, both the enemy and our side would suffer huge casualties.

But the current situation is unusual.

All the troops stationed at important street nodes sent urgent reports. If it were displayed on a map, it could almost be said that the entire line was in emergency.

The defeat of the Enwei Demon Kingdom’s army is almost a foregone conclusion, and there is no chance of a comeback.
