Outside Dark Night City, the sky was getting dark. The bright moonlight shone on the 300,000-odd soldiers stationed around the city.
Every troop was disciplined. Even though there were so many of them, it was still so quiet outside the city that one could hear a pin drop.
At the rear of the army, there was a middle-aged Gray Mage man in silver armor. He was the commander-in-chief of the army. His name was Gedon, and he was the most trusted subordinate of the Lord of Stormwind City.
In order to help the lord deal with the Dark Night Castle, he volunteered to lead his troops and stationed outside the temporarily impregnable fortress for ten days. Even though he did not know how long this situation would last, he did not complain or say anything.
However, his adjutant couldn't take it anymore and couldn't help but say,"Lord Gedon, how much longer do we have to endure? It has been ten days, and the barrier of the Dark Night Castle has not disappeared yet. Are the people of the Dark Night Castle plotting something inside? Why don't we storm in?”
Gedon gave him a sidelong glance and snorted coldly."My lord has said that the strategic treasure of the Dark Night Castle will not last long. We just need to wait patiently for the moment the barrier disappears. If we rashly attack, not to mention whether we can break through the barrier, it is very likely that our troops will suffer a great loss.”
The adjutant opened his mouth but did not dare to reply.
"Ten days have already passed," Gedon said."What's the last few days? I believe that my lord has not missed out on anything, and it will not be wrong to do as he says. If you can't wait any longer, you can return to the territory at any time. I won't stop you, but if you dare to raise any objections to the Lord's plan again, don't blame me for treating you as disrupting the morale of the army and punishing you with military law!”
Hearing this, the adjutant shrank his neck in fear.
He knew that Gedon was always a man of his word. Naturally, he did not dare to say anything more, nor did he dare to leave rashly. Otherwise, he would be regarded as a deserter and his fate would be even worse.
Sighing, the adjutant silently retreated."What's there to be proud of? Isn't it just a loyal bootlicker who became a lord earlier than me? If it were me, I would do the same. When I squeeze out your position one day, I'll let you have a taste of this too.”
The adjutant felt even more indignant. If it was any other time, he would have found something to vent his anger on.
However, with Jayden guarding this place, he did not dare to make a fuss. He could only kick away the stones that were an eyesore in the way as the only vent.
"Damn it."
The adjutant kicked a stone away and caught a glimpse of a light in the sky from the corner of his eye. He was stunned."Something is flying over?"
At this moment, the soldiers who were staring at the gate of the Dark Night Castle suddenly shouted,""The door is open!"
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone's eyes immediately gathered. They were like a pack of starving wolves. When they saw the fat meat coming out of its hole by itself, their eyes were about to shine with green light.
It looked even stranger under the night sky.
The opening of the city gate of the Dark Night Castle undoubtedly excited the army that had endured for ten days.
Was the war finally about to begin?
Gedon narrowed his eyes. For some reason, he felt that something was wrong.
Did they just open the city gates and give up resisting? This made sense. If it were anyone else, they would probably make the same decision after being surrounded for ten days without any hope of victory.
However, the barrier that enveloped the entire Dark Night Castle did not disappear.
Moreover, he saw the lord of the Dark Night Castle standing on the city wall. Although he looked haggard, his eyes seemed to have obtained a certain method of victory.
At the same time, under the city wall, the Dark Night Castle's army of less than 100,000 was ready to set off. Under the command of the Dark Night Castle Lord, their morale was boosted, and they all let out deafening shouts.
"After hiding for ten days, could it be that he has thought of a way to win? Or was he playing tricks? Or was he planning to fight to the death?”Gedon frowned and was very suspicious.
But soon, he threw away all the miscellaneous thoughts in his mind.
"The lord said that this battle will definitely annex the Dark Night Castle, which means that it will definitely be foolproof. No matter what tricks he plays, he won't be able to defeat my 300,000 strong army.”Gedon's eyes were firm, and he firmly believed in the lord's plan.
He waved his hand and ordered the other adjutant to pass down the order for the entire army to be ready to charge.
The Dark Night Castle's gates were wide open, and he definitely did not want to greet them.
It was very likely that the barrier was about to disappear.
The two armies looked at each other, the atmosphere was tense and the smell of gunpowder was unusually strong.
Both sides were waiting.
However, one side was waiting for the moment the barrier disappeared, while the other side was…
"Lord Gedon! Look at the sky, something is flying over!”
A loud shout instantly pulled Gedon back from the tense atmosphere.
He had a bad feeling and his heart thumped. He quickly looked up and saw a light in the sky. When he looked carefully, it seemed to be a huge airship!
The style of the airship was very familiar to him.
Was it Storm City's own airship?
The airship was getting closer and closer, and Gedon was even more certain of this. He could not help but smile with victory in his hand.
There was no mistake. Anderson had led thousands of Dragon Knights back in an airship, and they must have brought back the daughter of the Dark Night Castle Lord!
This battle was a sure win!
"Anderson! Beautifully done!" Gedon waved his hand and shouted.
He saw a figure at the edge of the deck.
Although he couldn't see clearly, he was certain that it was Anderson and no one else.
Soon, the flying ship was above the 300,000-strong army, but the smile on Gedon's face froze.
He saw the figure standing at the edge of the deck clearly. It was a strange face that he had never seen before!
The unfamiliar face had his hands behind his back as he looked down at the 300,000-plus soldiers. It was hard to tell if it was contempt or indifference.
What was going on?
Where was Anderson?
Gedon suddenly felt an unprecedented sense of foreboding. He was about to ask loudly when he heard an ear-splitting roar from the distant sky!
"Roar!"
A formless aura swept over like a huge wave. Everyone who heard it trembled and instantly disrupted the formation of the entire army.
Immediately after, a huge figure swooped down from the sky with an unstoppable momentum, instantly flipping over a group of soldiers who had no time to defend!
"It's a dragon!"
" A giant dragon!!"
Someone reacted and shouted in horror.
Why would a giant dragon appear in this place?
Gedon's face turned pale. He was about to command the formation when he saw the barrier of the Dark Night Castle suddenly disappear. The Dark Night Castle army, which had been ready to go, roared," Kill!”，In an instant, blood rushed into the sky as the 70,000 to 80,000 strong army charged out with intense killing intent. Like a spear, they stabbed into the Storm City army with great force, catching the Storm City army off guard and causing their formation to fall into chaos.
