Chapter 2711: City that Never Falls (1)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The continuous battle exhausted the alliance army.
Both sides suffered heavy losses. The order to retreat back to the city always appeared on time when the soldiers reached their limits.
Rest and recuperate before fighting again.
It repeated like a cycle.
Corpses that piled up outside Sun Never Sets had covered the ground. With the defense shield of Sun Never Sets, the alliance army could finally get a certain amount of rest in the battle.
The twelve devil generals and the Devil God did not intend to take action. Under the leadership of Xiu, the alliance army nibbled away at the devils at a faster and faster rate.
From the initial disparity in strength between the two sides until now, the war outside Sun Never Sets had lasted for an entire month. In this one month of war, the alliance army finally reduced the number of the devil army to the same as the alliance army.
With Sun Never Sets as their backing, the situation of the alliance army gradually reversed.
All of this was thanks to Xiu’s decision and the bravery of the alliance army.
The enemy’s numerical advantage was gradually erased, which was definitely good news for the war.
However, in such a situation, the state of the alliance army was extremely bad.
After a month of continuous fighting, the war items hoarded in Sun Never Sets were almost exhausted.
The potions that they had hoarded for several years had been exhausted, and food had begun to run out.
The only thing to be thankful for was the existence of the water elemental spirit, so that Sun Never Sets did not have to worry about the lack of water.
Although several elemental spirits could not participate in the war due to principles, after getting along with Shen Yanxiao for so long, they would still use special methods to help the alliance army.
Unable to kill enemies on the battlefield, they tried their best to do what they could in the city.
The heat of the day alternated with the coldness of the night. The fire elemental spirit would always warm the tired body and mind of the alliance army with a gentle flame at night.
Even so, the resources of the alliance army had almost been depleted
The first problem was the potions. All the Herbalists in the Forsaken Land had gathered in Sun Never Sets. These Herbalists had been working day and night to produce potions, but they still could not match the speed of consumption. Among them, healing potions and potions that recovered magic and battle aura were consumed the fastest.
The large number of wounded soldiers made healing potions in short supply, and the recovery potions for magic and battle aura could no longer keep up with the speed of use.
Almost every day, the potion storage room in Sun Never Sets would be emptied. During the battle, the Herbalists would still stay in the Herbalist Guild and work hard to produce potions. However, the potions they produced with all their might would often not be able to meet the number needed for the next battle.
It could be said that part of the reason why Sun Never Sets could delay the Devil race until now and obtain a certain advantage was because the resources hoarded internally in Sun Never Sets were enough to cope with the consumption during this period of time.
Right now, the forces of both sides had just equalized, but the resources within Sun Never Sets were already in dire straits.
The advantage of the battle had cost Sun Never Sets everything they had accumulated over the years.
Insufficient food, insufficient potions, insufficient medicinal herbs…
A series of questions followed.
Because of this, the mortality rate of the wounded increased exponentially. The Priests who had retreated from the battlefield had already exhausted their magic, and they no longer had the slightest bit of magic to provide healing for the wounded. With limited number of potions, the doctors led by Shen Qiu could only give it their all and try their best to bring more wounded back from the line of death. However, more and more soldiers were dying. If not for the support of the resurrection array of the undead, the large number of wounded who had died in Sun Never Sets would have caused the alliance army in the city to feel despair..
