The magical world, the sacred city.

"Don't be anxious, don't be anxious! Come one by one..."

In the western part of the Holy City, in a makeshift camp, the Elf Princess Alana was shouting. Beside her, there was a pile of supplies, which were used to supply the distressed residents from the Crescent City. A few days ago, the Crescent City was attacked by the demon army. Not only the demons, but also the orcs came. A few years ago, the orcs dared to attack the Crescent City just with the leadership of the demon Augustus. This time, with the demon lord Redra in charge, they were even more unscrupulous.

After taking over the Ganna Plain, the demons swept across the entire continent. During this period, they also recruited many new demon soldiers as reinforcements, and even recruited orcs. The current demon army is actually a super army led by the demon lord Redra, with the demons as the leadership, coordinating the demons and orcs. The scale and combat effectiveness of the demon coalition army are now even greater than when they set out. After half a year of fighting and conquest, the number and combat effectiveness of the demon coalition army have not decreased, but have increased. Is this the so-called war to support war?

Today, the number of demon coalition forces is very terrifying. Moreover, as the conquest progresses, the number of conquered lands increases. Many people in those conquered lands have lost hope and chosen to fall and join the demons, resulting in an increase in the number of demons in addition to monsters. When they just set out from the Demon King's Palace half a year ago, the number of demons under Redra's command was only a few hundred, but now it has increased to several thousand; as for the number of monster soldiers, it has exceeded 200,000, plus several thousand orc troops, the current demon coalition forces can really be said to be almost invincible.

However, they will soon face a test, which is the most impregnable city in the entire magic world - the Holy City. Unlike other towns, the Holy City is surrounded by a moat, which is unprecedented. Even Saint Lent City does not have such a treatment. It is the only city in the entire magic world.

In addition, the Holy City has the largest number of guards and the most complete city defense equipment. Especially with the new weapons, almost every guard in the Holy City now has one, and those magic cannons have been installed in the gaps on the city wall, making the defense of the entire city even better. Combined with the trebuchets behind the city wall and the magic towers on each wall that are connected together and support each other, it can be said that it is armed to the teeth. Oh, by the way, in addition to these facilities, the city is also equipped with a city defense formation to protect the entire city. This magic formation is specially arranged, and attacks from outside the protective cover cannot penetrate, while the means of attack inside the protective cover can hit the outside, truly realizing "only I can hit you, not you can hit me".

However, even in such a city that is well-armed and impregnable, the atmosphere in the city is extremely tense. The reason is that the demon coalition has already reached the city. More than a month ago, the demon coalition had just captured Tyr City, but it was unexpected that in less than two months, they had already attacked the Holy Capital. You know, the distance between Tyr City and the Holy Capital is more than 600 miles! !

Recently, refugees from other towns have occasionally come to the Holy City to seek asylum, with dozens at least and hundreds at most. For those who can escape to the Holy City, the Ministry of Magic has issued an order to accept them unconditionally. After all, not many can escape, and most towns are completely occupied. With the current scale of the demon coalition, it is not a problem to surround a medium-sized town like an iron barrel. In this case, the residents of those towns cannot evacuate or escape, and can only become prisoners of the demons.

Therefore, it was not easy for Crescent Forest to successfully evacuate so many people.

"Princess Alana, I'm so glad you managed to evacuate successfully."

At this time, a man's voice sounded behind Alana. Alana turned around and saw that it was Long Yucheng, whom she had met several times before. Since escaping from Tyr City, Long Yucheng has shouldered the responsibility of the leader of the dragon clan and led the remaining clan members to the sacred city. In Longgu City, there were more than 2,000 residents, but only less than 200 people were able to successfully reach the rear.

"Ah... it's Brother Long Yucheng." Alana smiled at Long Yucheng, and then her expression became a little gloomy: "I feel very sad about the death of your respected Lord Long City."

"It's okay... Father just made his choice." Long Yucheng clenched his fists and shook his head slowly: "I'm not sad, I'm proud of my father. The only thing I'm worried about now is my little sister's situation."

"My two sisters, my youngest sister Long Xinyu is in Saint Lent City. I don't know what the situation is like."

"Ah... is that so? She... should be safe, right?" Alana said softly. In recent times, she has witnessed so many deaths and hardships, and her mind has changed a lot. She is no longer as detached as before. As the princess of the Crescent Forest Elves, she must also mature.

Her parents both went to the Ministry of Magic at this time, so the task of managing the tribe temporarily fell on her shoulders.

"I hope...all of us can get through this disaster safely."

"..."

Meanwhile, in the Ministry of Magic's locker room, several men gathered together, whispering, "Is everyone clear about the plan?"

A guy who seemed to be the leader said.

"Boss, I understand." A guy with one eye bigger than the other nodded. The leader looked at the other accomplices, and they nodded as well.

"Our superiors have let us hide in the Ministry of Magic for such a long time, and it is finally time to do something big. This top-secret letter was issued by the Lord himself. Let us kill the Minister of Magic within two days." The leader said: "Our main force will arrive at the Holy City in two days, and then we will immediately launch a siege. The defense of the Holy City is strict. If we attack by force, the losses of the large force may be great. So if we can create enough chaos inside before that, it will definitely be of great benefit to taking over this city!"

"Boss, we understand!" Big and Small Eyes nodded.

"Are our infiltration brothers at the city gate...all deployed?" said the leader.

"Everything has been arranged and everything is going well! When the day of the siege comes, they will directly destroy the drawbridge mechanism at the west gate and force open the west drawbridge." A guy with a crooked mouth answered.

"Very good, in that case, let's review the plan and then take action! Everyone, you should all know how dangerous our trip is. It will be a life-or-death situation."

"We all know it, but it is our honor to serve the Lord!"

"Well, long live the Lord Demon Lord Redra! Long live the demon race!"

"Long live the demons!"

"Okay, then let's do this... this... and then this... and then this..."

"..."

The next day, the leader, Big Eyes, Crooked Mouth and several other spies infiltrated by the demon clan quietly launched their actions. As usual, they appeared at the Ministry of Magic with a calm demeanor, and then walked to the Minister's office on the top floor of the Ministry of Magic building. Along the way, when they saw some familiar colleagues, they would greet them warmly. Everything was so natural and normal.

Several people came to the floor where the minister's office was located. Daxiaoyan, who was walking at the back, quietly set up a small magic circle at the entrance of the stairs when no one was paying attention. If their actions were exposed, they would not be immediately surrounded by guards.

"Hello, Miss Secretary. We have an appointment to meet with the Minister today." The leader stepped forward and handed the approval letter to the minister's secretary in front of the minister's office.

"Oh...it's Mr. Jeffrey. Okay, please come in. The minister is inside now." The minister's secretary took the approval letter, glanced at it, then nodded and let the few people in.

"Thank you."

"You're welcome."

The demon spy Jerry and his men walked into the minister's office. Inside the office, the Minister of Magic Nicholas was lying on a chair and looking at a report in his hand. It said that the demon army would arrive tomorrow. Seeing that the war was about to begin, Nicholas was so worried that his eyebrows were about to fall off.

"Mr. Minister." Jeffrey walked forward and greeted Nicholas politely.

"Yes, Mr. Jeffrey... please take a seat. You made an appointment to see me a few days ago. Is there something important? If so, please make it short. I am short on time... I have been too busy recently." Nicholas said.

"It's okay, Mr. Minister, you won't be busy soon..." Jeffrey's mouth slowly curled up into a smile, and he spoke in a sarcastic tone.

"Mr. Jeffrey...what do you mean, what do you mean...what are you doing?"

Nicholas raised his head, but in a moment, he was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat. He saw that Jeffrey not only had a malicious smile on his face, but also had something in his hand.

It was a miniature version of a magic rifle, with most of its structure removed. The barrel was shortened greatly, and the magazine's feeding mechanism was removed, including the buttstock. This resulted in the gun being able to hold only one bullet at a time, and it could only fire one round at a time. Moreover, the entire gun was shortened greatly, so it was no longer appropriate to call it a rifle, and it should be called a pistol.

At this moment, the pistol was being held by Jeffrey, and the black barrel was pointed at Nicholas' chest.
