Tap, tap, tap!!
On the streets late at night.
Batch after batch of marching armies appeared, along with carriages rushing to the council hall.
The councilors, dragged out of bed.
They got off the carriages, sleepily and somewhat confusedly walked into the council hall.
"What's going on? Has something major happened?"
"Not sure, but we'd better hurry up, so we don't arrive late and miss something important."
"Exactly, let's hurry up."
Soon, the originally empty hall was filled with councilors.
Some still emitted the smell of alcohol, having been dragged out by guards from taverns.
Drowsily, they kept nodding their heads.
Soon, Dordy, Milton, and other three leaders walked out from behind.
There was no opening speech.
Dordy directly said, "Santeyao Fortress has sent the latest news—the army of the Blood Clan has broken through our lines and officially launched an attack on the Federation. The Federation Army is now trapped inside Santeyao Fortress."
Whoosh~!
