The paladin Verina, who was personally stationed at the main gate of the White Wolf Castle, covered in blood but covered in holy light, roared on the city wall:

"The second wing has to hold me off! I'm telling you, you don't have any reinforcements, but you're not allowed to take half a step back from the walls! Did you hear me clearly? ”

The sound of the roar, along with the sound of the wind, was sealed by a little mage apprentice, and then within a minute, it was quickly delivered to the ears of the defenders of another section of the city wall north of the main gate, the second wing of the garrison corps.

However, it is destined that the wing captain will not hear the news. How could his head, which had no ears and was detached from his body, hear the command?

After a while, Verina learned that the captain of the southern section of the city wall had been killed by the fierce demon army, and the entire defense line of the group had begun to crumble, and the southern section of the city wall was about to be unable to hold it.

She sighed, and persevered for almost two days, but she still couldn't hold on.

On December 22nd, the demon army led by Kang Li marched under the port city of Shawan Bay. At that time, the first phase of the evacuation of Shawan Port presided over by Verina had ended. A large number of important materials and a large number of personnel were urgently mobilized in those few days, and all of them were transported to the ocean through a large number of ships anchored in Shawan Port, and not a single ship remained in the port.

On the one hand, ships are a very important asset in their own right; On the other hand, it was impossible for them to leave the ship to the demon legion in Kangri, wouldn't it be convenient for others to pursue them?

As for what to do with Verina herself after all the boats, even if they were empty, they had left...... She didn't care at all.

She had never thought of leaving by boat, and despite the persuasion of many people, she still had the intention of doing so. She knew that the most important part of Dane's territory south of Sindelare, not the seemingly rich Shawan Harbor at all. The real core city is the White Wolf Castle, the castle where the power of the Human Templar was established.

In order to preserve the viability of Shawan Harbor, she would rather abandon the city's defenses than withdraw all her personnel. However, she could never give up on White Wolf Castle.

Moments before the arrival of the demon legion in Kangri, Verina and Palan, leading the garrison of Shawan Harbor, decisively left the city and withdrew to the White Wolf Castle. Combining the strength of the garrison corps that had withdrawn from Rotten Wolf Town into the White Wolf Castle, the garrison of Shawan Harbor led by her, and counting the remaining troops of the White Wolf Fort itself, the number of legions in her hands could exceed five thousand.

If you pull out all the soldiers who have not yet completed their training in several training camps in White Wolf Castle, the number of this improvised legion can reach six thousand. If, counting the civilians of the White Wolf Castle, which absorbed all the population of Rotten Wolf Town and some surrounding villages, there were an estimated twenty or thirty thousand civilians, Verina felt that she already had a certain amount of capital to fight with the demon army of Kangli.

Of course, she would not be arrogant enough to rely on such a ragtag army, and the number was far less than that of a ragtag army, to win the Kangli Army, which had been overwhelming all the way south since the expedition.

It's just that her purpose is just to stick to it.

With such strength, it should be possible to hold on, right?

However, when the Demon Legion broke through the harbor of Shawan and arrived at the city of White Wolf Castle on the night of the 22nd, and immediately launched a round of attacks without even resting, Verina instantly felt a tremendous pressure.

When the enemy attacked, she had not arrived at the White Wolf Fort for a long time, and many defensive measures had not yet had time to be deployed. In this lack of preparation, the enemy was frantically and violently attacked, and the gates of the White Wolf Castle were almost breached on the first day.

Those crazy, bursting, and terrifying-looking demons, when they are grouped together individually and in small quantities, are already a headache. And when that number expands to tens of thousands, the fear is too great for people to bear!

At night, when the eyes that were all scarlet in the past, and occasionally the flames with a strong sulfur smell rose, and the patches of black and suppressed were all such abominable demons, no matter what kind of human warriors they were, they would be terrified when they saw such a scene!

Verina personally ascended to the top of the city and led the battle. She even immediately pulled out all the twenty or so would-be Templars who were still training in the White Wolf Castle Monastery.

She is a high-level paladin, and although her personal combat power is not particularly strong, in any case, twelve professional levels are placed here; And those would-be Templars, although not as strong as the sixty that Dane brought with him, were themselves priests with the ability to cast spells from the second to the third ring before they were trained as knights.

As a result, Verina became a 'big light bulb' in the city that night, and the twenty or so would-be Templars became a 'small light bulb'.

But in any case, together they brought light to the soldiers in the White Wolf Castle who were shocked by the demons and almost didn't know how to fight.

After a night of hard fighting, the city gate was saved by great danger.

After daybreak the enemy retreated, but by midday they had returned, and the result was another afternoon of hard fighting.

After a night and a day, the soldiers and civilians in the city paid considerable casualties.

On this day and night, the number of humans who spilled blood on the head of the White Wolf Castle exceeded 3,000.

Among them, more than 1,000 soldiers died in battle; The losses of the conscripts, who had just taken up arms, were even greater, with two thousand dead.

And the heads of the demons they captured may be in their early five or six hundreds.

The casualties are large, and this matter can be put aside for the time being. There are still a lot of living people in the city, even if they have been fighting at such a big cost, as long as they can hold the city, it will be worth it. The city is broken, so what's the use of surviving more people? Could it be that the devil will show mercy, or accept captives?

It's just that defending the city is such a difficult task.

After a day of fighting, the soldiers and civilians of White Wolf Castle, who were quite tired, did not get much rest time at all, and on the day of the 25th, they were once again fiercely attacked by the Demon Legion.

This battle was fought from morning to night. And at this moment, in the evening, the city finally showed signs of being unable to hold on.
