Civilization Game

- Party spell, Gravity Field.

Kuku ku ku ku!

When the magic kicks in, the ground around you splits apart. Then the whole rock stood up and began to ascend to the sky. It was a spectacle that made my body shrivel.

"... Th-there's no point in doing any magic!"

"I made a mess of anti-magic minerals at the gate. Can you get through it?" "

The Aland soldiers shout as if they were fine. You've already stopped Howard's great magic twice with the anti-horsepower setting. That's how confident I was.

Kuku Kung!

The rocks that ascended into the sky came together and fell to the ground in the form of a giant earthball.

Howard holds the 'Gravity Field' and moves the staff again. This time, it wasn't a party spell, it was just the magic he cast.

- Summon, Blast Golem.

Rattle, rattle, rattle! The golem begins to assemble in front of Howard. Materials spit out of the surrounding dirt, rocks, and inventory magical bars, forming golems.

This golem was a figure that appeared with only one giant head missing an arm or torso. Five out of seven disciples who had a magical exchange contract with Howard were knocked down just by the head construction process.

"... What the hell is that?"

"What are you going to do with your hair?"

Expectations on one hand, anxiety on the other, and everyone in the battlefield were watching Howard's magic with contradictory emotions.

It was a wrap up. The effect of Gravity's field brought a few meters of dirt ball down in front of Golem's head. I stayed slightly up in the air without touching the floor. At the same time, the golem's mouth flares like a hippocampus.

"Days! You're not the only one who's getting better!" "

Howard mutters and smashes his staff into the air.

Bang from the Golem's mouth! A saturation rang out. The earthball in front of you flies towards the gate with a missile-like force.

Shhhhhhhhh!

"Khhh!"

"Ugh!"

Soldiers on the wall have lost their center, and a massive impact has fallen through the gates and flows through the fortress. The hard-looking earthball shatters and lies flat on the floor.

"Sat, is it working?"

The waiting soldiers of Opectus quickly look at the gate. There was gold stolen from the Gate of the Third Resistance, which never moved with any magic or siege weapons.

"Wow! It works!"

"That's Madosa!"

"Go!"

A cheer erupted from Opectus, while soldiers on the Aland side were almost dead.

"Oh, my gosh! What are you doing? Hey, do something about that!"

"How can you be so far away?"

"Isn't that magic, too? I don't think anti-horsepower equipment works."

"Oh my! That's just using magic to break it with physical strength!"

"Why are you so mean? How do you know I'm magic?"

A second ball of dirt flew in between them.

Once again, the turbulent crash shook the atmosphere. The gate seems to burst soon. The minds of the Aland Soldiers watching are burning.

Bianca, a soldier, shuts up. There was no power here to open the gate and go out and disrupt the magic.

"Everyone, behind the gate! Prepare the Civil War!"

"Civil war! Move!"

"Prepare to enter!"

It was a judgment that we couldn't stop the gate from collapsing. The faces of the dwarves descending the walls are dim.

And a third ball of dirt flew in.

Shhhhhhhhh!

The gates were completely smashed and the anti-horsepower minerals and irons were flying everywhere. The earthball comes through the gates and stops rolling in front of the Aland soldiers.

"Ah..."

"The gate...!"

Desperate young moaning erupted from everywhere.

'Is it over?'

Bianca drops her head. Oliver, standing next to her, shouts with a magnifying bead.

"Keep your heads up!"

"… Your Majesty?"

She looks at Oliver with the rabbit's eyes.

"A breach doesn't end the battle! Our lives are still on the line! The Guan will die fighting here today! Follow them!"

Oliver said so and regretted it for a moment. I saw how demoralized I was, and I was in a hurry, and I just said what I just heard, and now I want you to die with me! There's no such thing as encouragement.

But the quick to notice deputies immediately heard Oliver's words and shouted.

"You're right! You haven't lost yet!"

"Let's all die together here!"

"To Aland!"

"To science!"

The soldiers regained their minds and raised their weapons with a determined look.

"You've shown a lot of new aspects of this war. Your Majesty."

Bianca smiles.

"... because it's the last."

Oliver replied with a smile.

The fortress faces two massive walls and is surrounded by the same tension as before the storm. Opectus' infantry forces are now ready to enter. Colin draws his sword in anticipation of victory.

'Now I pushed it to the edge of the cliff.'

It was a place with thousands of people, but it was quiet all around. Everyone was waiting for his final attack order. It was a moment when Colin was about to open his mouth, raising his sword to the sky.

"???!"

"Huh?

Due to the sudden loud noise, Colin missed the time to give the order. His impression frowned. Why are you so distracted around me at such an important moment? What are the deputies doing without control of the soldiers?

♪ Loud, Loud, Loud ♪

However, the murmur was not a temporary phenomenon. Like an epidemic, it spreads around uncontrollably. Not just the Opectus, but the Aland. Now, thousands of voices surround us. I don't think I can hear Colin issuing a strike order here.

'Suddenly, what is this…….'

"Horse tower! What a mess! This is bad!"

Boom.

As soon as he heard the messenger's "big deal," Colin felt like his heart was going down. He struggles to swallow and postpone his presence. Of course, it wasn't without guessing, but it couldn't be.

"Horseman! Unidentified forces approaching from the rear!"

The sword falls from Colin's hand.

He turned his head to the crazy face and said, 'Ah.' I gave the elasticity of a single horse. How did you get here so fast?

Colin finally hears the voices of the other soldiers.

"Paddy, reinforcements are coming!"

"What army are you in?"

From a distance, a group of troops approach, creating dust. Their appearance was now well visible in the castle.

The sudden appearance of a force of intruders has turned both formations upside down. Enemies? Friends? In particular, there was a glimpse of hope on the faces of the Aland soldiers. No matter what happened, I thought it would be better than now.

And their expectations were right.

Two or two!

The man in the lead, leading the new invasion force, was riding the Drake. He smiled and said.

"We've finally arrived. Silver citadel."

"…… That was close, my lord."

A silver-haired girl driving a horse on the right said.

"Huh-huh-huh! It's on fire!"

The man with the iron pipe in his left hand also said a word.

These were the 4,000 troops of Abyss led by Lord. Beatrice and Phoenix are riding side by side on the road. 4,000 of the 6,000 troops have flown to Aland.

"Come on, let's go!"

Rod tugs at the top of the chasm, and his baby dragon roars.

4,000 Abyss troops approach behind the void in the shape of Opectus.

*

"Fuck! Fuck!" Damn! How did you do that so fast...! '

Colin snaps his fingers and shivers.

He recalled the past days with his eyes reddened. It was just when he arrived at Silver Citadel, taking down the Valley of Steel fortress. Flora requested a one-to-one conversation.

"Yes? The Abyss is gone?"

Colin was surprised when he heard about it. Flora was also agitated.

"I'm sorry, Colin. I thought the Abyss were lurking inside the route... It was so quiet that I walked through the siege, and the troops disappeared."

"No, it's not! Does that make any sense?"

"I'm sorry, but the situation..."

She explains her situation on the line. I took over the territory with the whole army, but I didn't even know I was going back. The defensive forces remained the same. There have also been a number of small battles. Etc.

Colin endured the frustration of pressing down on his temples.

"It's in the past, so I'll ask you about it later. Do you know where they're headed?"

"I got out in the middle of the night and I still don't know exactly. You can either go to Baekje or Genocert."

"... So when do you think they disappeared?"

"I marched in a siege today feeling suspicious, and the castle was empty... I think I left a day or two ago."

Colin grunts and thinks. She said again.

"Though I left plenty of time two days ago, it should take me about eight days to get there."

'Hmmm, so there are roughly six days left.'

Now we have one remaining capital, Silver Citadel. I couldn't give up the siege because of the Abyss, who didn't know when and who wouldn't.

The power difference with the opposing Pokémon is overwhelming. Colin thinks six days is enough. Take the castle and take this fortress in six days. Even if the Abyss arrives, by that time, the alliance of Aland will be destroyed and the Albheim army will be attacking the Underheim. As long as Rod doesn't run into the abyss of wanting to die together, he'll have to go back.

In the end, Colin decided to take up siege. We were worried about military fraud and did not inform them that the Abyss might come. I hurried to the siege by myself.

But the Abyss arrived two days earlier than Colin and Flora expected. Colin thought it was crazy.

"How did you get this speed? How many days and nights have you been running without rest? ’

But because they had missed something, Lord drew his troops back without delay from the night of Root's occupation. That's how we bought more time to get to Aland. In a common sense, Flora said it was just two days ago, but Colin's attachment was to trust the information and use it as a means to rationalize her siege.

"…… What are you going to do now? Topside."

Howard approaches and asks.

"The gate is broken."

"Ugh."

I'm angry. I'm angry enough to shed a tear. If only a few more hours had passed, this city and its destruction bonus would have been its own. Both magic and science were within our grasp. But the situation completely changed.

It was an extermination.

"Horseman! Give the order!"

"I'll follow any man!"

The deputies kneel on one knee and wait for orders.

Colin clears his head for a moment. Now that the gates have been breached, there is a way to keep Aland at bay. But it was also... unrealistic. No matter how sorry I was, I had to make the right decision.

"They must have come here without rest, so I'll give them my strength. I give the order. Let's give up the Third Wall and go down. We……."

He sighed and said.

"We're pulling out of Silver Citadel with all our might."
