At present, a swamp of ferocious beasts, their flying forms illuminated by lightning, approached rapidly. The Numinous Treasures outside the stronghold retaliated swiftly before the beasts could draw near. With a terrifying roar, the sharp spears and cannons let loose a blast of light, slaughtering the creatures without mercy.
The flying lightning beasts stood no chance of escape. Their deaths were instant. The cries that they released before their deaths could shake one to their core.
However, to the countless soldiers in the stronghold bustling around with their affairs, this was but the daily course of affairs—nothing that they were not accustomed to.
There lay one of the primary strongholds guarding the Federation, also known as the Seventh Imperial Gate!
Seven primary strongholds spread across the entire Federation. Within each area that fell under the protection and command of a primary stronghold were hundreds of smaller, minor strongholds.
