The reason why Rachel is dying and resisting is not for nothing.

At this moment, the passage in the void that slowly fell towards the 'abyss' was the best answer.

This is the spatial core hub of the entire Godforsaken Lands, and it is also the most unstable place in the spatial structure.

In order not to give the thieves more ground to expand their power, basically every section of the captured passage, once it is determined that it cannot be recaptured, the 'system' will disintegrate it, causing it to fall into the void, torn apart by the spatial turbulence.

As the Wall of Sighs Fortress shrank in size, the plane that served as a pendant began to crumble.

Since Heizhen changed hands to Rachel and was brought back, by now, this plane that Rachel named [New * Hot Land] has collapsed by a third.

"Rumble!"

The five-story boulder, with an earth-shattering roar, parted from the edge of the main plane and fell silently into the void.

The earth-shattering loud noise, combined with the silent end, has a feeling of anticlimactic.

Seeing the distant 'horizon' a lot closer, the sense of persecution that the end was approaching caused an invisible but increasingly terrifying pressure, and the civilians couldn't help but cast their last hope on the golden pillar of light above their heads, which was the last three lines of defense of the Wall of Sighs.

The battle is long over, and Rachel patrols the battlefield with Daria and several heroes.

Black flames of embers rose from the battlefield, and dead people were everywhere.

The corpses of none of the monsters were dragged away by the people and thrown into the fire in the Holy Light Magic Array.

Originally, this kind of thing would only be left to the Paladin Apprentice and the Knight Servant. They are far stronger than the average human, and are not easily affected by the dark power of monsters.

With the death of a large number of official paladins and knights, these people must take their place, and the result can only be handed over to the people, and after the removal is completed, a simple exorcism ritual and antidote are performed.

The corpses of many knights, covered with filthy cloths, lay across the square behind the city walls, and they were alive in this world less than half a day ago, and now after the blood cooled in their bodies, all that remained was the cross sword stuck in the ground not far above their heads.

These mutilated weapons will become the tombstone of their owners.

There will be no more tombstones carved in stone, and every stonemason will be sent to repair the walls. In the past, these tasks were entrusted to Locke's earth giants, but now these giants, who still follow Rachel's orders to stick to the city walls, are allowed to gather the earth element with all their strength to mend the wounds on their bodies.

So a broken sword, a military card, is all that a knight has after his death.

And today, Rachel personally ordered that any knight must designate one or three heirs in line to ensure that if he dies, someone will inherit the armor.

There's no way around it.

Knights' apprentices and minions who lack armor are too vulnerable to powerful enemies.

The problem was that the knight's armor was private property. A good set of plate armor, if it is also engraved with holy light magic protection runes, that value is probably equivalent to a suite in the imperial capital of the Celestial Empire.

In the past, even if a knight died, a companion or servant would pack up the armor and pass it on to the knight's designated heir as a family heirloom.

Now one heir is not enough.

When a knight dies, it is an apprentice inheritance, and when an apprentice dies, he can only be obeyed cheaply. Hu Servant is also dead...... Then randomly assigned.

Knights wearing ill-fitting tattered armor can be seen everywhere, and many of them are just apprentices, and they don't even have their exclusive [Battle Intent].

It's not that Rachel wants to do that.

Looking at the past, the soldiers who had lost their commanders were all trembling.

Mantismen, Daredevils, and a few paladins, these Guardian soldiers have fought like the most valiant warriors.

Now, they have lost the aura bonus known as Courage.

They find themselves no longer 'omnipotent' supermen, but ants who simply cannot control their own destiny.

They realized this after Lange was killed in battle and Hawke and Yundaus were seriously wounded.

Immediately afterward, the instinctive fear of death gripped their hearts.

Looking at the corpse of their leader (or the appearance of being half dead), many of them were almost delirious with fright on the spot.

The courage of the soldiers.

The older the military system, the greater the impact on the soldiers below the death or defeat of the leader.

Overnight, half of the overlord-level leaders of the Guardians knelt down, and these guys suddenly realized that they were just a little better mixed in the clan, so they followed the leader to a high position.

The gap between them and the top powerhouses has not changed from the beginning.

It's not that they've become stronger, it's that the powerhouses of the plane they're in aren't really hard hands, and they've been crushed by their own leaders with their strength.

Once they figured it out, the honor, the faith, and the pride they had built up for the unification of their Godforsaken land all crumbled in that moment.

They trembled and turned pale, realizing that they were mere exiles, and that they had fallen into this world only to live.

Faced with a multi-racial collapse, what can Rachel do?

Behind her back, along with the remaining 12 knights (heroes) in her own house, she can scold these guys for not being angry.

Scolding again in front of you doesn't help.

The saddest thing is that at a time when labor is beginning to be scarce, it is a blessing for these guys to be auxiliaries and not lag behind.

Rachel's full chest heaved violently, and finally, she turned to look at Daria.

"Are you still going to oppose my plan now?"

Daria and a few knight heroes were silent.

A handsome young knight with blond hair stepped forward: "I, Gerat, respect the decision of Your Excellency the Commander-in-Chief, however, the final line of defense, please be sure to hand it over to our [Fire Fury] Division. ”

Rachel closed her eyes and opened them again for a few seconds.

She is no longer angry, more of a helpless submission to reality.

"Yes!"

So, half a day later, an army despised by the mainstream soldiers stepped onto the penultimate layer of defense.

No matter how much they despise these guys, they can't deny the fact that today, when they are almost out of ammunition, the only ones who can still maintain high morale are these strange sea tribes.

They don't necessarily have a good fight.

But they are not afraid of death.

They had no good discipline, and even when they passed by, they were especially eager to take the swords and knives of the knights, and even to rip off the jewels used for decoration on some piece of armor and steal it.

They are chaotic and have zero discipline.

The knights said of them that even if they shook hands with these ugly fellows, they had to count a few fingers that had been stolen afterwards.

No matter how much they slander, they can't refute it, and these strange things have never succumbed to the strength of the enemy.
