Heavenly Kingdom: The Kingdom among the clouds

Chapter 95: Battle at the Stone Fortress (West) III

[Stone Fortress, West side of the southern territory]

The moment an explosion rung out somewhere in  the stone fortress, Both Tetra and Einar then looked out of their window, only to see their whole tactical area being overrun by enemy forces. Due to the fact that this came into a sudden attack, a lot of the southern warriors were caught off guard as they fought bitterly with the invading force from the western tribal warriors.

But before the southern forces were even able to react to defend themselves, the whole open area and inner places in the fortress were immediately filled with the western force warriors. Even the walls could be seen being slowly overtaken by western forces, despite  the aggravated roars from the defending units.

To be exact unknown to everyone in the defending camp, not only were the fortress walls compromised, but about three man made hidden passageways were created which led to the foot of the mountain are scattered in three specific places in the fortress for a flank attack. One is in the training ground, one is in the storeroom, and one is somewhere along the basement of the fortress.

Just by looking at where the passageways are located, one can even think that perhaps this locations were pre-planned targets from the start. However if that was the case, accurately targeting the location and making a passageway towards the target in one weeks time is something unprecedented and impossible even for a group of people with superhuman strength to even hide.

Thus it can only be concluded that that perhaps something mysterious or a third party may have been involved in the process of this attack in the stone fortress. One aspect that proves this fact is the actual point that non of the western forces had ever been from the stone fortress, thus it will be impossible for the enemy to0 actually pinpoint their critical location.

Adding the point of this sudden attack, the act of infiltration and the appearance of this thick fog is also a factor which leads to something supernatural. No matter what if one can analyze this situation, they would naturally came into conclusion that something was amiss.

Upon seeing the chaos all over their tactical base, Tetra and Einar quickly made their move towards the open area in  order to assist their men who were fighting bravely against the tide of the enemy forces.

"This attack is planned, this is not something that can only be done overnight... is this what they have been doing for the past week? no this is impossible!" reacted by Einar as fury painted all over his face

"Uncle snap out of it! we need to help our men" reminded by Tetra

"... Your right! lets go!"

Following Tetra from behind, Einar then followed her lead as he occasionally look out of the window and see the chaos happening outside the wall. But just as soon as they turn a corner, they then witnessed a hall full of dead bodies from both the southern forces and the western forces.

Just by this sight alone, they can say that a fight had broken out in this area a couple of minutes ago. But the one who hailed victory in this bloody hallway were the southern forces. In fact the warriors in the southern force just finished killing the warriors from the west, in that exact moment when the fight had just barely ended, about 15 of them looked over to Tetra and Einar's direction and realized that they were the executives of the southern force.

"Chiefs!!! We just finished cleaning up the enemy who attacked us, about 10 of our men died, nevertheless we took out all 30 of them" 

No need for formality! Quickly have your men lead us to the nearest exit, the whole fortress is being under attack! we need to push back the enemies" commanded by Einar

"The base is under attack?"

"Yes! so get a move on!"

Hearing Einar's urgent tone in his voice, the warriors in the hallway then immediately agreed to do was was tasked as they led the way towards the nearest exit towards in the area. Coincidentally the exit near them leads to the door facing the walls of the fortress and near the open area.
