Chapter 1543: Chapter 783: Is the Holy Griffin Empire Facing Annihilation? (4K)

But ordinary Professionals are not capable of scaling city walls dozens of meters high. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

A Legendary General suddenly reacted, "Quick, close the city gates! No, not just that, quickly inform the Lord Mayor and the Chief Commander, Vice Commander, activate the City Defense Barrier! We must activate the City Defense Barrier!"

But it was already too late.

Throughout Chenxi City, only the above three have the authority to directly activate the City Defense Barrier.

Two out of these three were not in the city.

The remaining Chief Commander was in seclusion.

These Legendary Generals also have the capability to activate the City Defense Barrier, but it requires the orders from the four legion command units and compliance with the required procedures.

However, at this moment,

"Screech~!", "Roar~!"

The roars of monsters had already erupted in the ears, and one monstrous creature after another had plummeted into the city, gigantic and sinister.

When the dazzling blue City Defense Barrier finally unfurled, a section of Chenxi City’s wall had already been breached, with a hoard of monsters pouring in.

Fires and chaos erupted throughout the city.

Of course, the deployed City Defense Barrier effectively blocked other monsters from entering.

Chenxi City had sufficient energy reserves, and its City Defense Barrier was a bona fide Epic Barrier. Ordinarily, even a wave of monster attacks lasting three days and nights wouldn’t necessarily breach it.

Except now, among the monsters that had breached, there were Legendary Realm Monsters with intelligence no less than humans.

And there were top-level Monster Overlords who’ve arranged powerful beings to infiltrate.

In mere moments, multiple critical facilities within Chenxi City were destroyed—human champions within the city were utterly incapable of preventing it, after all, once within the city, a Legendary could obliterate an entire city. Protection was never as easy as destruction.

The cyan barrier shrouding the city flickered, then quickly vanished.

Before long, this grand city of the Holy Griffin Empire was entirely decimated under the monster tide, with not a single survivor except for a very few who possessed life-saving teleportation items.

...

Though Chenxi City was indeed a grand city, it was, after all, just a city, not a defense-focused War Fortress.

In the zones where disaster suddenly erupted, directly impacted by the Red Mist mist tides and monster waves, there were also Holy Griffin Empire War Fortresses established. These War Fortresses, though not much tested by warfare, were nonetheless manned by the Empire’s most Elite units, drawn from powerful territories with numerous veteran soldiers and generals. Among them, some had been mercenaries, experienced on various battlefronts, and some had even ventured into the Red Mist Land.

Naturally, these War Fortresses maintained high vigilance even in peacetime. With experts who understood Red Mist and monsters adequately stationed there, they could respond suitably even if a monster tide attacked.

However!

Chenxi City was destroyed by the direct impact of the monster tide, yet these War Fortresses and central major cities were facing more than just monster tides.

Imperial Fortress·Iron Blood Fire Cannon.

This was a fortress established four hundred years ago, with profound history and cultural heritage.

Despite its many years in service and showing signs of time’s ravages, the entire Iron Blood Fire Cannon Fortress had undergone multiple renovations over the centuries, and its war weapons were far from obsolete; in fact, it had long been armed to the teeth.

One of the fortress’s generals, the World-class strongman ’Grey Shield’, squinted his eyes, gazing distantly at the unending stream of charging monsters outside the fortress and the roaring cannon fire that had set the entire heavens and earth ablaze...

He spoke, "Don’t even mention one wave of monsters; even if it’s ten, as long as these beasts dare to assault our fortress, we can annihilate them outright with our firepower here!"

He was very confident.

The Holy Griffin Empire was incredibly wealthy, and even though he and a few other generals, along with the chief and vice commanders above, had embezzled a fair share of war resources, and sold quite a few in secret, their stockpile within Iron Blood Fire Cannon Fortress still remained vast, utterly unafraid of a war of attrition.

The City Defense Barrier overhead had long been activated, and they felt no fear even with Law Realm Dukes outside, be it one, two, or three of them.

Furthermore, War Fortresses like their Iron Blood Fire Cannon were numerous in this domain; each fortress and major city of the Empire constructed with Epic Level City Defense Barriers.

This is the strength of a powerful nation.

The Holy Griffin Empire had the capability to mass-produce Epic Barriers!

"But we must not be complacent," another general cautioned, "Chenxi City, just seven hundred kilometers from our fortress, also had a defense-grade barrier, yet it was still obliterated by the monster tide in an instant."

"Indeed, the Empire has already commanded us to firmly hold the fortress, needing only to hold the fortress, with no need for unnecessary actions."

The Fortress Chief Commander walked over at this point, speaking in a deep voice.

The meaning was that there’s no need to aid other nearby cities.

Of course, they truly didn’t have the capability; the monster tide was overwhelming, with numerous Legendary Monsters among them, and venturing into the tide even a Law Realm Strong Person might fall.

Furthermore, isn’t it true that a Monster Duke is orchestrating such a tidal wave of monsters?

Leaving the fortress and giving monsters an opportunity is a mistake! In contrast, holding the fortress could stem the surge of the monster tide and, utilizing the geographical advantage and war weapons, slaughter monsters en masse; this is what they should do.

"A Law Realm Duke... has arrived!"

The Chief Commander suddenly, eyes glinting with Divine Light, locked eyes on the gigantic shadow standing at the clouds’ edge far off in the distance.

It was a terrifying monster cloaked in shadow, with numerous hundreds-of-meters-long tentacles extended. Its tentacles kept whipping down, igniting ripples across the entire City Defense Barrier continuously.

Just one Law Realm Duke couldn’t possibly break through the City Defense Barrier in a short time.

But they still couldn’t be careless.

After all, the barrier was a dead thing, and there’s still the possibility of discovering some flaw, or a temporarily high-grade Boundary-breaking Stone creating a small breach.

All of these require close monitoring, which is the significance of high-ranking experts guarding the post, to act at a critical moment.

"If we find the opportunity, with the fortress’s arsenal and my power as the Chief Commander, annihilating this Duke would be a significant achievement!"

The Law Realm Chief Commander kept a vigilant eye, seeking an opening.

Suddenly,

"Pssh—"

A pitch-black claw punctured through the Chief Commander’s chest, protruding from his front, grasping a heart thumping away.

The next moment, the heart was crushed, with countless gold and red blood splattering, dotting the face of the gaping, fear-stricken Law Realm Chief Commander.

"How...can it be...?"

The City Defense Barrier was evidently active, so how did this Monster Duke infiltrate?

Could it be...

The Chief Commander suddenly thought of one possibility.

Could it be that before the barrier was activated, before the mist tide erupted, before any signs appeared, that this Duke was already lurking within their fortress?

This is disastrous!

A heavily guarded, power-laden War Fortress, was obliterated.

This is only the beginning.

If one looks down from the Ninth Heaven, surveying the Holy Griffin Empire’s land, it becomes apparent...

City after city, fortress after fortress being breached, a dirty brown symbolizing corruption spreading across the earth at an extremely frightening speed.

The skies over the Empire’s territory finally darkened, with wind howling and Red Mist wafting.

Three sinister moons hung high, incredibly clear.

...

"What? The Holy Griffin Empire encountered unforeseen events, and many cities have been decimated, suffering severe losses?"

...

"What? The Holy Griffin Empire faced a massive disaster, with countless strong individuals fallen? The Great Domain falling?"

...

"What? The Holy Griffin Empire is on the brink of annihilation?"

...

Mu Yuan, upon receiving the news, was still somewhat dazed.

Where did such exaggerated rumors come from?

The Holy Griffin Empire was supposed to be the world’s most powerful, safest country!

"But it seems it’s not entirely rumor."

Sophia, with a grave expression, said, "The near extinction claim is certainly exaggerated, but given the current situation, if the Holy Griffin Empire can’t stop the spread of corruption and calamity, the future devastation, or even annihilation of the entire Empire, is not entirely impossible!"
