As the middle-aged man with the mutton chop beard bellowed his command, people from the Bright Church pulled out their swords to face the opposition without wasting half a word in dialogue, charging forward.
"Damn it! If we're going to die, let's die, but no one gets through before the Dragon King arrives!"
"Right! In eighteen years, I'll be a hero again, let's all go at them together, brothers!"
"We absolutely can't let these people look down on us!"
Every faction under the banner of the Dragon King's Palace clenched their teeth and had no choice but to brace themselves and join the fray.
After all, the only option before them was this one path; if they chose to flee, then what awaited them would be the punishment of the Dragon King's Palace.
Better to fight it out than to die either way.
Having realized this, all the major forces faced the difficulties head-on and soon clashed with the people from the Bright Church.
