Inside the town hall of the Mega City of Renarches.

The lord of the city, Marquis Andrea Ferré, wore a sturdy armor with the family crest on it, and sat on the first place with a solemn expression.

He was discussing the situation with all the officers.

The Marquis of Andrea looked thin and lean.

Although he is middle-aged, he still looks extremely strong, without any old age and decadence.

Looks energetic every day.

At this moment, he frowned, and the worry in his eyes was so thick that he couldn't dissolve.

From time to time, he looked down and flipped through the thick magical letterheads and communication records in front of the table.

He didn't look up until he had read it all.

Everyone at the conference table was silent.

"The Five Kings Association held in the [Sage Realm] has a result!"

"Several human kingdoms have reached a consensus, agreeing to share intelligence and help each other."

"The results of the new moon phase deduction and demonic energy monitoring have been cleared."

"A new round of demonic disasters that will affect the entire continent will definitely break out!"

"And unfortunately, Ataxus Mega City happens to be one of the first megacity-level areas to erupt."

"We're going to endure the intensity of the Battleline."

At this, he fell silent.

For the unoptimistic situation of Ataxs Big City, everyone has long been mentally prepared.

Because of this, during this time, both inside and outside the giant city were actively preparing for war.

However, being mentally prepared does not mean that everyone can accept it safely after hearing the news of the real hammer.

Not surprisingly, this bombshell news of the Marquis of Andrea caused an uproar among everyone.

All the Giant City Chiefs at the scene couldn't help but talk about each other.

There was panic, nervousness, and uneasiness in the hurried tone.

There just didn't have much courage, fighting spirit and confidence in victory.

Seeing this, the corners of Marquis Andrea's mouth were slightly hooked, which was both sarcastic and wry.

He knew that the nobles and lords, who had been lazy in their relative comfort, had long forgotten the glory of war.

In other words, these bales are scared out of their minds.

Fortunately, the military directors of the giant city showed quite high morale.

After all, as officers of the giant city, they were all trained from various demonic disasters and cave battlefields.

There is no lack of experience in fighting monsters and the courage to fight against demons.

But not the chief officials in charge of the municipal government.

With a silent sigh in his heart, he raised one of his arms and slapped the table hard.

"Bang!"

"Silence!"

The marquis, who has a gold-level magic element cultivation, has great strength.

His slapping table made the long solid wood table that was large enough to accommodate dozens of people at the same table burst out.

I saw the Marquis of Andrea shouting solemnly.

Then he flipped through the stack of letterheads piled up in front of the table.

Pulling out one of the letterheads with the emblem of the Kingdom of Duroa, he squinted and frowned.

"Here's a special notice from the Imperial City."

"The Great Ruler of Douroa and Guardian of the Kingdom, King Ulise Lodbrok, has decreed."

"The invasion of the monsters of the Atlas Giant City will reach its peak in the next 19 Naroa days, and the Territory Guardian General Order has officially come into effect, and it has been decided to send multiple legions from the surrounding giant cities to carry a large amount of supplies to build a new front."

"There will also be the masters of the Royal Alchemy Society, as well as the high-level spellcasters of the high-level elemental mage group."

"From the day the decree is issued, the Ataxus Front Committee will be established, with myself as the chairman."

"The deputies are the two counts who came to lead the team to support the Pallas Giant City and the Elephant Mountain Giant City."

"From now on, there will be no Ataxs Big City, only Ataxs Log."

"Yes, everybody."

"The kingdom has not forgotten that we are facing the first wave of demons."

"Support from all over the world will be given priority to us."

"And the Ataxus city will also be upgraded to a Log-class fortress."

"All Loge-class fortresses in the Kingdom of Duroya will be in the first state of combat readiness, enjoying the highest priority of material supply and troop support."

"In order to integrate the fortress of Loge, the major regional states and settlements under the jurisdiction of the giant city immediately imposed the system."

"At the same time, all the retired sergeants of the Black Iron level and above who have cultivated the Demon Element in the jurisdiction will be recruited back to the army."

"The major state and city-level settlements must forcibly send a regular garrison of no less than 15,000 men to assemble in Ataxlog within 10 Naroyazhes."

"Counting the support from all over the country, so that we can concentrate about 15 million troops!"

After reading this circular document, and issuing his additional order, the Marquis of Andrea took out another letterhead with the palace seal.

"This is an order signed by the Kingdom's Prime Minister, Mock Stephens, and the Chancellor of the Exchequer, His Excellency Finn Lister."

"All the giant cities in the western region of the kingdom will reactivate the giant city-level teleportation array that has been dusted for a long time due to the huge consumption."

"At the same time, immediately launch a devastating offensive against the monster caves around the territory of the giant city, and clear enough safe buffer areas."

"This can break down the barriers to the transportation of resources."

"Of course, the premise is that you have to wait until the high-level spellcaster and alchemy master deploy the means in the city that can counter the monster sealing ritual."

"You know, the monsters have many isolation rituals similar to the dark mandala."

After reading them, the Marquis of Andrea put down these important letters and swept his gaze over everyone.

When the Scourge officially arrives, the monster will open up a void teleportation channel, and the original cave will become part of the node.

At present, the Giant City of Atax, no, it should be called more than five hundred kilometers east of Atax Log, has appeared in the area covered by demonic energy.

Those demonic spirits cannot be expelled.

A strange magic array also appeared in the sky.

This is the harbinger of the start of the demonic disaster, and in the future, it will become a teleportation channel for the release of monsters.

This process is almost irreversible.

It is irreversible, at least in terms of the current methods of the Naroa natives.

However, it is possible to deploy layers of fortifications and traps based on this harbinger.

Every step forward for monsters must pay the price of blood and fire.

To be honest, during the trough before this, most of the natives of the Naroa continent didn't care about the caves.

For most people, the Crypt is the farmland where the cores and monster materials are harvested.

Anyway, the caves can't be completely destroyed, and even if the core of the passage is destroyed, they will randomly reappear after a while, and there is little point in clearing them.

Against this backdrop, the regular army in various places did not carry out a proper clearance of the caves.

But now the situation is different, the king and the prime minister have issued the general order of the whole territory and the regional order, which means that the entire kingdom of Douroa will enter a state of war.

The caves within a radius of thousands of kilometers around the giant city have long been completed.

It's a buffer zone.

"It seems that the situation is really serious..."

"Ataxus has actually been upgraded to Fortress Logg."

It was Roel Valentine, the mayor of the megacity, who sat to the right hand of the Marquis.

The level of the Logg fortress is higher than that of the giant city.

As a municipal governor, he was promoted by one post while his position remained the same.

But Roel Valentine's face was not full of joy.

He is not only the viscount of the kingdom, but also one of the few nobles who can enter the school city for further study.

"There is no doubt that the moon phase of the bilunar summit is a harbinger of the monster's action."

"History has long proved the accuracy of the month's prediction of the outbreak of the demonic calamity."

"Whether it's two hundred and seventy-two Naroa years ago, the all-out demonic catastrophe that broke out on the Norhanrog front."

"It's still five hundred and thirty-seven years ago in the Naxal Desert, where there was a hole in the ruins."

"Something similar has happened beforehand."

"But according to the Kingdom report, the moon phase is particularly severe this time."

Roel Valentine lifted the crystal spectacle lens resting on the bridge of his nose.

The correctness of these two orders is supported by great knowledge.

In other words, it would be a blessing or a curse for a new round of demonic disasters to break out first in Ataxx Megacity.

Even if it is upgraded to a Loge-level battle fortress, it will be difficult to hide the haze of danger.

Don't look at the high priority of Log's Battle Fort, but it's also the place with the most dead people in the kingdom.

And it's not that there are no Log-level battle castles that have been destroyed by monsters.

The wars that break out in this kind of place are all tens of millions, and the slightest carelessness will destroy everything.

The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became gloomy.

Ataxus is about to face a crazy monster onslaught!

They will become some kind of ebb and fall in history.

Whether it will survive is still unknown.

No one knows how long the plague will last.

Almost every time a demonic disaster breaks out, the monsters will come up with some new tricks and changes.

They are not constant agendas.

Although the Naroa natives are not idle.

After all, it's no secret that demonic plagues erupt periodically.

This is also the reason why all the kingdoms are able to react as soon as the vision of the Double Moon Summits appears.

In fact, all parts of Naroa are ready to deal with the plague.

Especially in terms of material reserves.

Including the city of Magtan, there are ample reserves of both food and ordnance.

But that's all, and there is still no complete certainty that we will be able to deal with the crisis completely.

After Royal's additional remarks.

The heads of other departments and other aristocratic officials in the giant city also stood up to speak one after another.

Various bills to adapt to the Logg-class battle castle were urgently discussed.

How to build a larger defensive line in the 19 Naroyari and complete the deployment outside the city became a top priority.

The crusade against the monster caves around the giant city has been completed, which can relieve some of the pressure and buy a certain amount of time.

At the same time, it indirectly reduces the pressure of wartime.

Big City will control and count all kinds of important materials.

All state towns, settlements, villages, farms, farms, and other population gathering places under the jurisdiction of the jurisdiction will receive a general order to hand over the supplies.

Fortunately, Chen Xuan had purchased the materials in advance, otherwise he might not even be able to get the resources to build a defense.

The entire Atax has officially entered a period of strict control.

In addition to sending reinforcements to the megacities, the various state cities in the jurisdiction will also have to support each other.

Eventually, the city will be expanded with more than 750 small forts, 125 medium forts, and 40 large forts on the periphery to build a defensive node around the outside of the city.

This meeting marked a new turning point for Atax.

It is an urgent supplement to the previous resolution.

For them, time is precious.

For the next 19 Naroya days, every second counts.

If used properly, you may be able to survive this catastrophe.

After basically finalizing the various plans, the Marquis Andréa Ferret announced the adjournment of the meeting on the spot with a heavy heart.

The implementation of various bills and plans is also indispensable for these presiding officers attending the meeting.

And it turns out that humans are a bunch of animals with burning butts.

Whether these commanders are cowardly or brave.

When the problem is in front of you and it is imminent, you have to do it.

Even if it's hard-headed, you have to go on it!

All the Lords of the Great City who were present at the meeting hurriedly left the council chamber with various drafts and steady.

The huge conference hall was soon left with only Andrea and the municipal superintendent Roelle.

The two sides have cooperated for many years, and they have incomparable tacit understanding and trust in each other.

Roel leaned into his ear and whispered.

Marquis Andrea didn't speak, but silently frowned.

“？”

"None of them came back?"

Roel replied in a deep voice, "Yes." ”

Then he added with a frown.

"Something is very wrong."

"Most of the investigation teams we excluded were gold-level players."

"Speaking of which, it would have been a strange thing for Magdam City to survive the crisis."

"Although the crisis that happened there was not enough to cover one thousandth of what Ataxus was about to face."

The words made Andrea's brow tighten even tighter.

He slowly raised his hand and lowered it, and looked at the old fellow Roel again.

This wise deputy keeps the city in order.

"I don't care about it anymore."

"But the call-up order must be implemented immediately!"

"If the other party resists, we will send 100,000 heavily armored knights to attack!"

Andrea tapped on the table and snapped.

Roel nodded, then shook his head.

He untied the slender lanyard of his crystal glasses and slowly rubbed the corners of his sour eyes.

"Not proper."

"Lord Andrea, no matter how much has changed in Magdam City, their position has not changed, and they are still on the opposite side of the monsters."

"And when the battle-level demonic plague breaks out, all parts of the jurisdiction will be more or less attacked by scattered monsters, so we don't need to make a big deal about it."

"As for the investigation team, it is a pity that those gold-level powerhouses are there, but with the reinforcements joining, Ataxus will not lack gold-level powerhouses, and there will even be many higher-level powerhouses to join."

"Therefore, my opinion is to maintain the status quo."

"Of course, that call-up order is still going to be issued."

"If the other party is willing to send reinforcements obediently, that's the best,"

"Every force counts right now."

"If the other party ignores, we can try to lure the monster to..."

His eyes flickered, causing Marquis Andrea to nod frequently.

After the talk is over.

The two did not speak again for a long time, and silence returned to the council chamber.

It wasn't until a few minutes later that Roel slowly got up, saluted him, and left.

As the mayor of the city, he is inseparable from the promulgation and implementation of various measures in the city.

And now, the burden on his shoulders will be even heavier.
