Aion didn't find much resistance along the way until he reached the southern gate… as expected, the people of that town didn't suffer enough over the years, and now their guard was low as it could be… Regardless, Aion reached the southern gate and made the Scarlet Tigers bombard the gate with their powerful flamethrower. They were fast and could use magic on that level… he couldn't have asked for better pets.
The gate fell insanely fast, to the point that the few guards on the walls didn't have time to react. Aion jumped on the back of one of the tigers and then made them run toward the south at moderate speed to make sure that some of the guards that he didn't knock down would chase him. That will improve the chances of the prisoners having an easier time leaving the town.
