Chapter 568 No Rest for the Wicked

“We absolutely cannot retreat! Champion Hart has given the order, so we must hold out for three hours. We have to buy enough time for the citizens to evacuate, “Sylvia declared.

“But the enemy is well-prepared. They have too much firepower. I’m afraid we won’t be able to last that long!” said the officer.

“We must defend the city even if it costs our lives. We can’t let the citizens fall into danger,” Sylvia replied.

“Understood!”

The South Aridlands’ forces began to help the citizens of Southlake City evacuate with their military planes.

Meanwhile, the intelligence officer from South Aridlands ordered the soldiers to lie in wait. Once the enemy had reached shore, they could ambush them and start their assault.

“Chief Sanders, the enemy is about to break through. We should leave,” an inspector informed Joey, who had been keeping order in Southlake City as well.

“The citizens have left. We’re not soldiers. Fighting against an army is not part of our duties!” the officer shot back.

“Diatoran’s safety is linked to ours. As inspectors, we must carry out our duties. We’ll march forth once the enemy has reached shore!”

Upon hearing Joey’s answer, the inspector hung his head. He didn’t say anything after that.

The hospital in the war zone was filled with patients. Beds were now scarce as the number of patients grew.

Avon was busy. He had been treating patients for the last 24 hours with no rest.

Three hours later, the citizens of Southlake City had all evacuated. Sylvia and Desmond then ordered their troops to leave the coast.

Seeing Sylvia and her men leave, the enemy promptly approached the shore. They marched into Southlake City and began their assault on land.
