The Void Faction now had no choice but to make a decision.
Either continue fighting the Heavenly Martial Dynasty, or temporarily retreat to the island region in the northeast.
The reason was obvious.
From the very beginning, the Void Faction had intended to capture Normar.
However, just as the siege was reaching its fiercest point, they discovered a very serious problem.

For example, if it was Bai Qi's Group Army's turn to defend the city today, the remaining commanders had to set a time.
Once that time was decided, they had to rotate in when the time came, regardless of what happened.
In other words, their rotation system was so crude that they would rotate in if there was a problem—and create a problem if there was none.
