Chapter 1296 - 1296 874 Frontline Battlefield
?Chapter 1296: Chapter 874: Frontline Battlefield Chapter 1296: Chapter 874: Frontline Battlefield One must admit, Duanmu Huai is indeed fortunate this time.
Following the path pointed out by the village chief, they arrived smoothly in the Kingdom of Paretia. Initially, Duanmu Huai worried whether they would need some form of identity verification, but to his surprise, the guards merely checked and then let the three of them in.
At first, Duanmu Huai thought it was sheer luck, but after entering, he realized there was a reason for the guards’ actions.
It so happened that the northern border of the Kingdom of Paretia had become a battlefield.
Led by the Demon Clan, a massive army had completely blocked the passageways of the Northern Land, even sporadically sending demon beasts to harass them. Fortunately, as a major power, the Kingdom of Paretia was surrounded by ancient magical barriers created by great magic users from ancient times, which prevented aerial attacks by the Demon Clan like before.
Well, but conversely, Duanmu Huai and his companions could no longer leave.
No, strictly speaking, it wasn’t impossible to leave, but there was a precondition.
That was to recapture the fortress ahead.
Simply put, during the previous attacks by the Demon Clan, the fortress in the Northern Territory, responsible for defense, was conquered by the Demon Clan, and the barrier was lost as a result. Now, the Kingdom of Paretia was confronting the Demon Clan behind the second barrier, with three layers of barriers in total—the first being the border wall, the second being the Royal City where Duanmu Huai and others were located, and the third at the Royal Palace.
Since the first barrier was breached, the Demon Clan could invade the territory within the Kingdom of Paretia. Thus, to reclaim the lost grounds, the Kingdom of Paretia had recruited adventurers and troops to repeatedly charge towards the Northern Fortress.
But it is undeniable that…
“It looks like we’re thoroughly trapped here now.”
Duanmu Huai smashed the last demon beast with his hammer, then helplessly looked around. The main job of adventurers was to act as the vanguard and clear threats ahead. However, after several consecutive attacks were repelled by the Demon Beast Army, it left Duanmu Huai rather displeased; honestly, if it were just the three of them, they would have run away long ago. But they always had to cover others’ retreats—although they did kill a significant number of demon beasts and members of the Demon Clan, this back-and-forth tug-of-war was not to Duanmu Huai’s liking.
“The last demon beast is also taken care of, let’s head back.”
Duanmu Huai turned his head and glanced at Ogis sitting on his shoulder, who nodded slightly, then Duanmu Huai turned around and walked back the way they came.
The adventurers’ station was on the edge of the city, gathering adventurers from all over, who had also come here to resist the Demon Clan and the Demon King’s Army—well, no wonder that guard didn’t ask them for any identification documents earlier and just let them in.
