After a couple of minutes of walking, Shang reached the actual frontlines.

He could see several huge walls, over ten Mage Towers, around 20 True Mages, and hundreds of barbarians.

20 True Mages was a bit on the meager side when it came to fortifications on a war front, but the hundreds of barbarians easily made up for that.

The fact that there were ten Mage Towers with only 20 True Mages told Shang that the Grandmountain Kingdom wanted to lose as few True Mages as possible.

One Mage Tower generally had two True Mages inside of it. They could work with the Magic Circles and perfectly split up the work.

One of them would plan, choose the attacks, and keep the Magic Circles running, while the other one only needed to aim and fire.

The Mana would mostly come from Mana Crystals, which were stored inside the Mage Tower itself.

So, with 20 True Mages, the ten Mage Towers could be used to their full force.

Obviously, the Grandmountain Kingdom saw their True Mages as more valuable than their actual resources. Otherwise, they wouldn't have built just as many Mage Towers as it needed True Mages to operate them.

They just didn't want to lose more True Mages.

As Shang looked at the army of barbarians, he saw hopelessness, fear, and frustration.

Based on how the defenses were set up, Shang could very well imagine how everything would go.

A couple of Adepts would herd the barbarians to the front while the True Mages shot at the enemy from their safe Mage Towers.

Naturally, an army of Fighter Stage barbarians was not very threatening to the Skythunder Kingdom. After all, most warriors could cut through them like cutting grass.

But that was not the purpose of the barbarian army.

Their purpose was just to slow the advancing offense down to give the Mage Towers more time to rain death on their enemies.
