Chapter 786 - Attack of the Magical Machine Army
Chapter 786 Attack of the Magical Machine Army
Perhaps Yurga’s orders were the best warfare strategy for the Alliance adepts.
Unfortunately, having the adepts shed blood, sweat, and sacrificing themselves to fight an uphill battle against the ferociously advancing magical machines was perhaps asking too much of them!
A Third Grade adept like Yurga might have confidence in escaping unharmed, but most First Grade adepts were condemned to certain death. It was because they recognized this that the Alliance adepts had scattered and run away without any hesitation.
At a moment like this, it would be much better to enhance themselves with a speed-increasing spell if they had the energy to spare. As long as they could outrun their companions, they had a high chance of escaping successfully.
“We have no chance of getting away at all! The gates of the tower have already been sealed once more.” Yurga’s desolate and trembling voice could be clearly heard over the chaos of battle. However, the many Alliance adepts still charged down the tower without turning back.
The number of Alliance adepts had already been reduced to sixty-eight people before the battle in the hall had even started.
This retreat instantly left only the low-grade adepts of the Andorra Clan on the battlefield.
The alliance of the five adept clans had assembled a grand total of one hundred and six adepts when they first gathered. Yet, the ones who successfully escaped Fire Cave now were no more than a measly thirty-four individuals. That meant a total of seventy-two adepts had fallen in Fire Cave over the nine-day siege of the tower.
It was a glorious and surprising victory for the Crimson Clan, regardless of how you looked at it!
Sadly, no one had any idea what the Crimson Clan had sacrificed for this victory and what they had lost.
This battle over the tower ultimately ended after another half a day.
The thirty-four adepts who had escaped had now disappeared into the pitch-black Black Forest. The magical machine army stopped after emerging from Fire Cave and turned to clean up the battlefield.
Not all of the seventy-two adepts had died. The Crimson Clan had managed to capture twenty-six of them; all of them were adepts of the First Grade. Among them, seven were Andorra adepts, five were Magic Forest Hut adepts, eight were Layton Academy adepts, four were Cenas adepts, and two were Kamala adepts.
Without exception, all of these adepts had been inflicted with severe wounds and had lost all ability to resist.
The Crimson Clan imprisoned them after giving them necessary treatment.
Meanwhile, Third Grade Haines Vik had also become a member of the prisoners. The Crimson Clan had paid the price of twenty-six magical machines before successfully exhausting his blood energy.
Mary immediately sent Haines to the sealing room after capturing him.
Whether she would be able to advance to Third Grade in the future depended entirely on this bloodline ancestor of hers!
The battle of Fire Throne utterly shook Zhentarim.
Almost every single adept clan hadn’t believed that the Crimson Clan would be able to survive this calamity. Who would have expected that the Crimson Clan were able to beat back the alliance of five adept clans with the use of a surprising number of magical machines and went on to kill and capture many adepts?
It was an unbelievable battle between adepts!
For a moment, the name of the Crimson Clan was known throughout the center of the continent!
