Below St. Sarl City, thousands of black horses and black-cloaked knights finally arrived at St. Sarl City in the wee hours of the morning. Every single one of them had cold, emotionless eyes. It was as if even the breaths of the horses carried the smell of black lava from hell.
When they appeared on the skyline, a huge pressure enveloped all of St. Sarl City. The thick smell of blood seemed to drift into St. Sarl City from miles away.
St. Sarl City was already prepared. When the Owl Knights appeared on the skyline, the alarm bells on the city walls rang. Everyone in the city stayed up all night, praying before the temple of God. Since yesterday, everyone had known that the Owl Knights would arrive today. But no one had expected them to arrive so soon. Were these demons hurrying on their way without sleep?
When the bell rang, everyone in St. Sarl City looked at the top of the city walls. Although they couldn't see it, the strong murderous aura seemed to have frozen the air. Everyone felt like they couldn't breathe.
"They're here, they're here." Someone knelt on the square, trembling.
"The army of the demons has arrived." Someone raised the sun ornament high in the air, panicking.
"Don't worry, God will punish them. We still have the Pope and the Saintess. We still have the Knights of Light."
Many people held their children and hid under the Temple of Light. It was as if the closer they got to the temple, the closer they could feel the aura of God. It was as if the presence of the Pope and the Saintess gave them a strong sense of comfort.
The city walls of St. Sarl City immediately began to deploy a dense defense. Archers were in position, hot oil and stones were all in place. But they knew that it was impossible to break through the city with just these cavalrymen. They didn't have siege weapons, and it was impossible for them to climb the twenty-meter-high walls. But the wizards had the means to easily destroy the city.
Levis and the eight members of the Wizard Alliance rode their horses to the front of the Owl Knights. They looked at the majestic city of St. Sarl in the distance. This city had been rebuilt from the original city of Kenbosch. It was the holy city of the Church of Light, the holy land that all believers of the Church of Light yearned for.
Levis suddenly felt an intense desire to destroy filling his heart. At this point, Levis's eyes had already turned red from killing. He didn't care about anything else other than this city in front of him. If he could take it down, he would replace the Radiant Church and become the most powerful person in the Human Kingdom.
He was no longer the bastard son of a baron, nor was he the son of a cook. He was the king of the entire human kingdom. Everyone had to bow before his sword and cavalry.
Levis drew his sword from his waist. "This is not our end, but our starting point. We will establish our own glory here. We will establish the glory of the wizards. Glory belongs to everyone in the Wizard Alliance."
The other members of the Wizard Alliance cheered along. Everyone obeyed Levis's authority. It was he who had led them to victory all the way to where they were. There was only one part of St. Sarl City left. Once St. Sarl City and the Church of Light were destroyed, they would stand at the top of the continent.
Most of these wizards had been born at the bottom of society. They had never thought that they would have such a glorious day. In a few days, Henry and the others reattached their broken legs, and their legs grew back. Although the process was extremely painful, the moment they reached this place, the pain turned into hope and anticipation for the future.
"The Kingdom of the Wizards. We will establish a Kingdom of the Wizards here," Henry said excitedly.
The other students whispered to each other, expressing their excitement. "This is the last step. Years of anticipation will be realized at this moment."
"Levis, we were right to believe in you. We really did it."
Levis pointed his sword at St. Sarl City. "There is only one left. Let's move."
As the Owl Knights and the wizards approached, the top of the city walls became densely packed. Everyone was waiting for Levis and the others to attack the city. Looking at the pitch-black cavalry, even the sound of their horses marching in unison, everyone felt a great pressure.
When they were about two hundred steps away, everyone stopped. If they went any further, the arrows would be able to reach them. The Owl Knights all stopped, as if waiting for something.
Levis and the other eight wizards moved together. Each of them held a spellcasting material in their hands and began to move. A large amount of mind power intertwined. This was a large-scale combination spell. It had been ten years since they had started practicing, and Levis had become a Level Three wizard last year.
Rank 1 sorcerers could learn low-level spells, rank 2 sorcerers could fly, and rank 3 sorcerers could form a spiritual force field. This was a crude way of categorizing sorcerers. Among the nine of them, there was only one rank 2 sorcerer other than Levis. The other seven were still stuck at the threshold of rank 1 sorcerers and had yet to break through.
The nine of them cast their spells at the same time. Immediately, a fireball gradually rose from the size of a fist and continuously expanded. In the end, it floated tens of meters in the air and became a sphere that was more than ten meters wide. It hung in the sky like a sun.
The guards on the city wall all opened their mouths wide as they watched the huge fireball rise like a small sun. Even the hands holding their weapons began to tremble. "Heavens! What is that? "
"A sun. They have stolen the power of God. These demons can even steal the power of God."
"God, how evil is this?"
There was chaos on the city wall. A large number of arrows were shot, but they melted as soon as they got close to the fireball. The heat was constantly compressed and shrunk. All of the wizards broke out in a cold sweat. Levis, who was the main controller, had blue veins popping out.
"Rise!"
The huge fireball lit up the sky. It was condensed into a body of extreme heat and released a blinding light. Then, under their control, it formed an arc and smashed towards the city gate, falling heavily towards St. Sarl City. It was like a meteor falling from the sky, fast and violent. The sound of the explosion as it passed through the air seemed to knock on the hearts of those who heard it.
"Heavens!"
"Quick, get out of the way! Get out of the way!"
"Everyone, get down!"
Only then did everyone realize that the target of the wizards was the city wall. Everyone hurriedly dodged, trying to avoid the impact of the fireball. But it was too late. The fireball was upon them in the blink of an eye.
Such a powerful attack was completely unstoppable. The huge fireball fell diagonally, like a meteor falling to the ground. It hit the city wall. The dozens of archers on the wall didn't even have time to dodge. They only saw the light rush into their arms, and they instantly lost consciousness.
The intense light exploded, and everything within dozens of meters was plunged into daylight. The ground began to shake, as if the entire St. Sarl City had been shaken into the air. The violent explosion shook the ears of everyone in St. Sarl City, causing their ears to ring.
Only then did everyone realize what had happened. They looked at the city wall, only to see that the originally indestructible wall now had a huge gap. Through the gap and the smoke that filled the air, they could vaguely see the densely packed Black Knights outside the city. Every one of them wore a helmet. When they looked into the city, everyone felt as if they couldn't move, as they fell into a bone-chilling cold.
