Efa rolled to the side as she desperately tried to evade the sword strike of a Hobgoblin that had broken through the South Gate.
The defenders had fought valiantly to keep the monsters outside the city, but the destruction of the gate was inevitable.
The Orcs and Hobgoblins effectively used their shields to block the arrows and crossbow bolts raining down on them from above.
Meanwhile, the Mages—the only ones that stood a chance of destroying the shield-bearing monsters—were being targeted by the Goblin Archers, Goblin Shamans, and Goblin Mages.
A few of them had died because of this, while the rest suffered various levels of injuries.
In the end, everyone just fought however they could until the gate collapsed right under them.
The moment the monsters poured into the city like a raging tide, Santino and Darius ordered the defenders to follow the strategy they had devised as a contingency plan.
