Outside the City of Hope, the Protection Black Mist had thinned to almost invisibility, and countless abyss monsters were madly rushing toward the city walls. The bodies of the monsters were stacked upon each other, forming a long slope, and a large number of monsters charged up the walls along this slope.
At the same time, those monsters with the ability to fly were rapidly striking the protective barrier above the City of Hope, using their lives to deplete the energy of the barrier.
In the war, brave soldiers inspire fear, but even more terrifying than brave soldiers are those horrifying monsters that do not understand what death is. They were literally using their own lives to pave a bloody path to the City of Hope for those that followed.
