The battle went on until the sun went down and the humans had no choice but to retreat.
In this single battle, over a quarter of the human army had been wiped out.
The city was mired in an atmosphere of fear and pain.
Everyone knew that their deaths were most likely soon at hand.
The queen gathered her officials and after a long debate, they decided to ask for help from the Sea Martial sect and the other powerful factions in the star system. They even decided to send a request for aid to the Governor's Mansion and the Senate. This was no longer a problem they could handle on their own.
Thousands of communication talismans were sent out at the same time. Many of these were intercepted by the wraiths but some of them got through and reached their destination.
In the Martial Hall, the Supreme Protector read through a communication talisman he had just relieved and he did not know whether this was a joke or not.
