After a couple of minutes of walking, Shang reached the actual frontlines.
He could see several huge walls, over ten Mage Towers, around 20 True Mages, and hundreds of barbarians.
20 True Mages was a bit on the meager side when it came to fortifications on a war front, but the hundreds of barbarians easily made up for that.
The fact that there were ten Mage Towers with only 20 True Mages told Shang that the Grandmountain Kingdom wanted to lose as few True Mages as possible.
One Mage Tower generally had two True Mages inside of it. They could work with the Magic Circles and perfectly split up the work.
One of them would plan, choose the attacks, and keep the Magic Circles running, while the other one only needed to aim and fire.
The Mana would mostly come from Mana Crystals, which were stored inside the Mage Tower itself.
So, with 20 True Mages, the ten Mage Towers could be used to their full force.
