call out!

Whoosh--!!!

Beams of magical light, each with its own meaning, shot into the sky, illuminating the dark night.

In the distance, the panicked and disorganized army saw the order from the Military Department.

"Look, that's an order from the Military Department!"

"Haha, I knew the royal family and the Military Department generals hadn't given up!"

" The Military Department has ordered us to immediately head to the north gate and fight our way out to protect the civilians!"

"Brothers, the time has come to test your courage! Follow me to the South Gate and use our Sharp Sword and bodies to buy time for our loved ones to escape!"

"Get to the street fighting!"

"Quickly, quickly activate the magic array in the North District! Haha, brothers, let's pull off a big heist before we die!"

"Here, fellow magicians, quickly set up magical traps! Using the terrain, we can definitely hold off the Barcelona for thirty minutes!"

The officers received the clearest instructions from the soaring magical flames, directing the soldiers and all available forces to faithfully carry out the Military Department's final orders. No one retreated, no one panicked; the only expression on their young faces was anger—anger at the invaders, Executioner, Butcher.

Soon, the sound of footsteps like a tidal wave echoed from the opposite street.

The few Zenit civilians running at the front were quickly overwhelmed by the Barcelona army that was chasing from behind. They were hacked to pieces and stepped into the cracks in the rocks. In the firelight, the faces of the Barcelona people covered in blood looked like demons released from Hell.

"Draw your swords!" shouted the Zenit officer at the front.

Clang clang clang clang!

More than two hundred soldiers brandished their weapons.

"Rush!"

The officer gripped his sword with both hands and launched Charge.

Behind him followed Zenit soldiers who showed no fear.

It's like a stream rushing into a raging sea.

Blood, severed arms, shouts of killing, wails, screams, bones, Broken Blade, Dou Qi, magic, heads, corpses...

The alley was quickly soaked with blood.

Two hundred and fifteen Zenit warriors used their own flesh and blood to hold off Barcelona's elite army, which outnumbered them tenfold, for a full forty minutes, killing more than five hundred enemies. By the end, the entire alley was covered with a thick layer of blood, and the corpses, already dead, were tightly bound together, their faces still bearing a ferocious, frozen expression.

The people of Barcelona were shocked and terrified by the horrific scene.

Such scenes are happening everywhere in Saint Petersburg.

The peaceful and tranquil life of the past was utterly shattered on this blood-soaked night. Homes, shops, stores, restaurants, noble mansions, temples, sculptures, fountains... everything was smashed. The people of Barcelona set everything flammable on fire. Men were all killed; women screamed and resisted, only to be humiliated and tortured. Children were thrown into the flames; the Old Man were beheaded and impaled on spears...

Crimes beyond description are unfolding in every corner of this ancient and beautiful city as the people of Barcelona advance step by step.

This is war!

Residents of Barcelona found that their recommendations were being sent much slower than they had imagined.

Every inch of land they advanced came at a tremendous cost. In desperation, the Zenit launched a desperate counterattack. In the history of the Barcelona conquests, no other people had ever been as fearless as the Zenit Zenit, as fiercely Resist as they had been, and had never retreated in the slightest.

The frenzied battle has driven the entire front line into utter madness.

"See that? That's the Zenit army's command center over there. Once we destroy that place, the Zenit Resist will completely crumble!" Barcelona's senior officer Montoya, pointed to the cluster of buildings in the distance, which were constantly releasing beams of magical flames, with a ferocious and excited grin on his face, illuminated by the firelight of the burning buildings. He spoke to the officers around him.

"We are willing to go with you, sir, to destroy the Zenit command center!" the officers around him shouted in unison.

"Great!" Montoya licked his lips excitedly.

Since the Battle of Byzantium Harbor, where he led the Sea God's Spear Imprint set up by King of Chambord Alexander, resulting in the near annihilation of the Sea God Legion, Montoya had been temporarily sidelined by Pedro to reflect on his mistakes and had not had any opportunities to fight. Tonight, he finally had a chance to make a name for himself and was eager to pull off a big heist.

After donning tight-fitting armor, Montoya selected over a thousand elite warriors, supplemented by more than two hundred combat-experienced officers, and equipped them with the most advanced weapons. With a wave of his hand, the group, like demons in the night, parted the crowd and Charge swiftly towards the Zenit Military Department in the distance, where beams of magical command light were rising into the sky.

"They're going to the Military Department to stop them!"

Soon, scattered Zenit troops spotted this wave of Barcelona's elite troops. Realizing their intentions, they charged forward, shouting as they tried to hold them off and buy time.

"Kill!"

Montoya grinned maliciously and swung his longsword.

A burst of Dou Qi shot out, and the dozen or so Zenit soldiers who charged at the front were cut in half at the waist.

The Charge Barcelona army unleashed a merciless slaughter. They were elite troops, mostly Star-Rank Warrior, and quickly crushed the Zenit Resist. Five kilometers from the Zenit Military Department, countless Zenit soldiers rushed out to block them, but were quickly crushed by this black, ghostly magic. All that remained was corpses and blood.

Montoya quickly broke through the Zenit blockade and led his elite troops to the gates of the Military Department headquarters.

"Haha, now's the time to make a name for yourself! Slaughter everyone inside, men, women, children, and even chickens and dogs—leave no one alive!"

Montoya leaped high into the air, dodging the more than ten-meter-high wall and gate of the Military Department. Behind him, countless officers, their bodies shimmering with Dou Qi spirit, leaped high and swept through the Military Department like locusts.

"Kill!"

As the blade flashed, the faces of several staff officers who were holding discs and files were still frozen in shock when their heads were sent flying into the air.

The Zenit warriors guarding the Military Department headquarters gate put up a brief Resist before being completely overwhelmed. As soon as the gate opened, the Barcelona soldiers outside rushed in like a flood bursting its banks.

"They've arrived so quickly!" At the foot of the highest military and political hall, the Second Prince Dominguez took a deep breath, then turned and shouted, "Activate the formation!"
