YM778.TV Chapter 635 The Crumbling Defense
"
His eyes fixed on the next set of defense towers. With a mighty roar, he surged forward, tearing through the air like a blazing meteor to attack that tower.
---
On the ground, Commander Varok barked orders over the chaos of the battlefield.
"Keep moving! Push forward and stay in formation!" His voice carried a sense of urgency but also resolve, spurring the soldiers to keep pressing on their attack.
The Resistance army advanced with remarkable spee despite the intense enemy counterattacks. Definitely better than how they do if Erend didn\'t present here. Energy blasts rained down from the structure and taking the lives of a few soldiers but the rest pushed forward with grim determination, fueled by the sight of Erend\'s unstoppable power.
Brogar led his squad and using cover of various rocks formations scattered around to inch closer to the building\'s base. His weapon fired relentlessly, suppressing defenders who tried to rally from the gate.
"No hesitation! For every one of our men lost, we take ten of their men! Keep going!" he roared, his voice rising above the cacophony of battle.

Erend twisted in the air, his powerful wings kicking up a burning wing as he dove toward a cluster of more defens towers. His claws raked across the metal structure and tearing it apart like paper. The resistance army below cheered as the towering defense crumbled into a heap of molten slag. The structure now had gaping vulnerabilities.
"The walls are next,"
Erend thought, his mind sharp despite the fiery rage coursing through him.
He landed with a thunderous crash near the structure\'s perimeter. Then with one powerful swipe of his tail, he smashed through a section of the outer wall, the ground trembling beneath the impact.
BOOM!
---
Inside the building, chaos erupted as defender soldiers scrambled to contain the assault. They watched in horror as the walls crumbled, the ground troops advanced, and their defenses burned under the onslaught of a creature beyond their comprehension.
"Sir! The creature is breaching the walls!" a panicked voice shouted over the comms.
The base commander slammed his fist against the console. "Hold the inner defenses! Don\'t let them advance any further!"
---
Erend took a brief pause amid the destruction to communicate with Saeldir.
"Tell them that we can\'t destroy this place entirely. There could be something inside. Maybe data or weapons that they can use to turn the tide of this war.
"
His deep, resonant voice carried through the telepathy he sends to him.
Saeldir\'s response was immediate.
"Understood. I\'ll send word to Varok to hold back on total destruction and only focus on disabling their defenses while we secure the structure."
---
The main gate was next. Renna\'s siege weapon, a massive crossbow built by the Resistance\'s engineers, rolled into position. Its operators worked furiously to load the huge arrow. With a deafening blast, the weapon unleashed a devastating charge that obliterated the metal gate, sending shards of steel flying in all directions.
"Charge!" Varok commanded, his voice echoing across the battlefield. The Resistance soldiers surged forward, pouring through the shattered entrance with weapons ready.
---
Inside the metallic building, the defenders fell back and retreating deeper into the structure as the Resistance stormed the halls. Erend\'s fire and destruction had created a path but now it was up to the army to capitalize on it. The Resistance pressed forward with their unyieldinh determination.
Varok turned to Brogar. "We\'ve broken through, but the fight isn\'t over. Sweep the area and secure anything that looks useful but don\'t destroy everthing. Lord Saeldir sayd that there could be something useful for us here."
Brogar nodded, motioning for his squad to move in. "You heard the commander! Sweep every room. Take prisoners if you can, but kill anything that moves against us!"
The Resistance army flooded the corridors, their boots pounding against the metallic floors as they pressed their attack deeper into the enemy stronghold.Nôv(el)B\\\\jnn

Outside, Erend roared once more while his massive wings beating as he rose into the air.

The clash of steel and the crackling of Magic filled the air as the Resistance army swept through the metallic halls of the fortress. Though wielding swords, spears, and other traditional weaponry they fought with overwhelming skill and dominating. Their strength also bolstered by Magical artifacts that granted them more advantages.
The defenders, though equipped with modern technology, found themselves outmatched by the sheer ferocity and coordination of their enemies who fight for their freedom.
At the heart of the battle, Saeldir moved with the elegance as he delivered his Magical support and also attack. He summoning barriers of light that deflected enemy fire and releasing bursts of arcane energy that shattered entire squads of defenders. With every gesture, he turned the tide further in the Resistance\'s favor.
"Press forward!" Saeldir commanded, his voice calm. "Secure every room, and leave no threats behind!"
Resistance soldiers surged onward keeping their momentum unstoppable. Groups of defenders attempted to regroup amd setting up defensive perimeters in key area but they were overwhelmed in the blink of an eye. Magical blasts and expertly coordinated strikes tore through their lines, leaving chaos and destruction.
In a large atrium, a final group of defenders made their stand. Automated turrets and energy shields fortified their position but it wasn\'t enough. Saeldir stepped forward, his hands glowing with intense light. With a single incantation he unleashed a wave of pure Magic force that shattering the shields and silencing the turrets. The Resistance soldiers poured into the room, cutting down the remaining defenders or forcing them to surrender or die.
Within minutes, the battle was over. The stronghold was now eerily quiet, save for the footsteps of the Resistance as they secured the building. Piles of debris and the bodies of defenders marked the path of their victory.
Saeldir reached out through his telepathic link to Erend.
"It is done. The defenders have been neutralized, and the structure is ours."
With a graceful landing, Erend\'s massive form settled onto the scorched earth near the fortress.
Slowly, the fire and molten glow that surrounded him began to fade. His colossal wings folded in and his body shimmered with a fiery light as it began to shrink. Within moments, Erend stood in his human form again.
"Good work," he said. "Now, we need to find that rift."
