"Impossible,"
The walls of the city were bombarded with missiles. Artillery stationed from afar fired continuously at the city, decimating the buildings inside. People ran across the cities, frightened mothers carrying their children, storekeepers, men, even knights of honour were thrown into a panic.
"Councilwoman! You must get out of this city at once!" Jinn pleaded. The councilwoman was still motionless, still staring at the event that was unfolding. The enemy was now besieging their city, it was no longer them that was on the attack but the enemy.
Amid the chaos, the Red Scripture could not be found. The army they were supposed to lead back was also absent, one thing could be assumed and it was not a happy one. The army must have been completely defeated and the Red Scripture has been killed off.
"We must aid the city's garrison!" Fery whipped out her fiery rod of flames and jumped from the balcony before landing onto the roof of a house below.
"Fery!" Jinn screamed at her sister but was ignored. Her sister dashed through the roofs of the houses as she presented her aura of flames that slowly engulfed her body.
"Tsk!" Jinn gritted her teeth and looked at the councilwoman. The councilwoman still did not say a word, her face was blank and her stare was the stare of someone who has accepted her death. But who was she kidding? The councilwoman held so much magic power, she could even defeat this entire army on her own if she wanted.
Jinn pleaded for the councilwoman to follow her and evacuate from the city but she was not budging, she even resorted to forcefully bring her in but she still was not moving, as if she was embedded into the floor itself.
The Red Scripture mage suddenly sensed something deadly was near, she frantically looked around to see what was the threat but she did not know that the threat was coming at them faster than she could react. A missile, move fast in Mach 30 launched from a missile truck, it pierced the wall just below their balcony while leaving behind a trail of white smoke in its path.
The AA Missile Launcher Truck is one of the most powerful infantry vehicles that the Machine Empire had in its arsenals. This rocket artillery platform can fire two types of missiles: Cluster missiles (A missile that when fires separating into 20 missiles and spread into vast area and explode with the main missile causing widespread destruction) and Hypersonic Missiles boasting the speed of Mach 30.
