The commander of Shell Iron City immediately had an answer.
"I see!" Nalant nodded, understanding now.
These gods had already gone to the inner region of the void for reinforcements a second time.
Fortunately, judging by the current situation, this second attempt had still been fooled past by him.
Of course, that was only normal. After all, the so-called Dark Demon God was himself. As long as the high priests of the divine kingdoms on the Aio Continent kept their mouths tight enough, then he would not be exposed.
Even if a few spider threads and horse tracks were found elsewhere, without substantial evidence regarding the Dark Demon God, these inner-region delegations would have no way to act.
Wooo, wooo, wooo!
Just as Nalant was talking with several satellite-city commanders, the sound of horns came from below.
"It's starting! All of you, go to your positions!"
"Yes, Lord Nalant!"
Immediately, the satellite-city commanders hurried toward their respective battle positions.
This slope had originally been four li wide from left to right.
However, after the Flame Legion's defensive works had been built, the passable routes had been shortened greatly. Only three passages a little over five hundred meters wide could be traversed easily.
As for the other areas, trenches seven or eight meters deep and five meters wide had already been dug out.
The trenches were filled from top to bottom with sharpened wooden stakes, and behind these trenches, Nalant had also assigned Longbowmen to stand guard.
That way, once the enemy approached, they would suffer fierce attacks.
With this, the enemy would naturally choose to converge toward the three areas where no trenches had been dug.
Of course, those areas were not so easy to walk through either, because simple walls made of tall wooden stakes had likewise been erected
