When the mercenaries crossed the gates, several of them were welcomed by a rain of arrows. Dozens of them fell dead instantly. As for those who survived, they tried to dash at the soldiers who were dozens of meters away from them, but they were stopped by squads of spearmen. Arlen had devised a formation for when the gate was destroyed even before the first conflict started. Thanks to that, they would be able to kill many enemies for a while as they head to a death trap. However, in the end, that only lasted for a couple of minutes. Several soldiers climbed the wall and killed the archers there. Thanks to it, the number of soldiers attacking that formation from the back increased, and the same formation slowly began to break.
"Bombard them with your magic, Zaos," Verkan said, and then he grabbed his sword. "I will beat the bastards who are trying to destroy our formation."
