Smoke rose throughout the Buster Trading Company. Ashburn's soldiers charged inside and killed everyone they saw. The company's guards had no chance to fight back, and in moments, many lay dead or wounded.
Left distraught by Han Shuo's words, Phoebe wielded the divine artifact Starry Sky and led the company's guards in a desperate defense, but the situation was clearly dire.
Among the soldiers attacking the Buster Trading Company were several experts who served Charles. One of them, a Temple Knight of the Church of Light, wielded a silver spear and swept through the guards unopposed. Every thrust claimed a guard's life.
Several mages kept casting spells. The Buster Trading Company's buildings caught fire one after another, and the grain and goods stockpiled inside burned fiercely. Some servants stumbled out of the rooms engulfed in flames, only for a rain of arrows to whistle toward them and pierce every one of those innocent servants.
In a very short time, the Buster Trading Company fell under the fierce assault. Only Phoebe and a group of loyal guards remained, hastily retreating toward the rear gate. Along the way, the guards beside her were killed one after another.
"Miss Phoebe, you won't escape today!" Aubrey, an Archmage of the Spatial Department, said unhurriedly, watching her with a sinister smile.
