Capítulo 628: Chapter D227: Reinforcements 2
“This is a battleground where it’s kill or be killed. If you want to save people, you must first kill. There’s no room for scheming here.”
She paused, a meaningful smile curling at the corner of her mouth:
[Inspiration of the Depraved Hero——]
9. Moonlight is so beautiful
10. Great Success/Extreme Failure
Note: Extreme failure indicates hero is discovered, and reinforcements are limited to a few troops and adventurers from the Capital; great success leads to Gray Moon, Stained Sky.
The Hero was tensely contemplating his next move with another self, but halfway through the discussion, a sudden roar of collapsing buildings echoed nearby.
The Hero’s ears perked up, his expression shifted slightly, quickly pinpointing the source of the sound.
“It’s the survivors from the Capital, clashing with the Black Gate and Winged People.”
Although the vital hubs of the Capital hadn’t been overturned, as the Kingdom’s capital, the quantity and quality of Professionals here were unmatched by those at the border.
Thus, many Professionals were present in the transferred areas.
However, after suffering grave casualties during the month-long seesaw battle, most chose to hide or fortify themselves in strongholds.
“It appears they’ve realized something too; they’re killing with a clear purpose now.” The Depraved Hero squinted.
The Hero’s clash with the Angel’s Corpse, Key Changing, and the Winged People Clan Leader stirred movements neither large nor small, raising enough attention.
Those trapped here, these survivors, could hardly remain indifferent to such movements.
Even during the battle against the Angel’s Corpse, the Hero had received images from the future. Indeed, adventurers from the Capital should have been drawn in at that time but were intercepted by Key Changing, who also captured the image.
Now, with the smoke signal raised by the Winged People Clan Leader, coupled with the Black Gate and Winged People’s Army’s movements, the Capital’s survivors clearly understood they couldn’t just wait to die any longer.
Operating in such a harsh Magic City, they naturally possessed considerable strength.
[Average Level of Reinforcements]
“Their status isn’t very good.”
The Hero’s expression tightened.
The survivors, though strong, had endured for a month in this harsh Magic City. While humankind doesn’t succumb to the Arcane Surge like Demons, they couldn’t dismiss the environmental disparity of Magic Elements.
They had enough strength, enough courage to charge at the Winged People Army gathering, yet against Winged People thriving in such environments, the Capital’s forces were taxed heavily in battle, not crumbling at first contact but struggling evidently.
“I need to help them—”
Ultimately unable to stand idly by, the Hero quickly decided in his heart.
The Depraved Hero rolled her eyes, ready to follow the Hero’s steps, her face suddenly changed.
Both sensed danger’s approach simultaneously.
In an instant, their forms morphed into a gale, disappearing from where they stood, with destructive magic arriving at their original position moments later.
10. Great Success/Extreme Failure
Note: Great success indicates high additional special profession, extreme failure means subjugation by the Hero

Debris and dust surged upward, the swelling Magic Power tore through the Barrier, shattered stone pillars, spurring the Hero to clench his fist, watchful of the unwelcome arrival.
“I wondered who was secretly casting a Barrier here. Turned out, it was a pair of charming sisters—”

The Kingdom Army and Winged People Army began their battle, unable to stand by, the Hero was about to assist, when suddenly, pitch-black flames fell from the sky, enveloping her like an ink-colored downpour.
The Demon Fiery Flame engulfed ancient stone pillars and the silent Barrier alike, even devouring all scattered dust.
Yet, the tall woman who wielded this fiery flame furrowed her brows, gazing in another direction.
The two Heroes originally hidden within the Barrier and shadows had long vanished, their small feet gently landed by the breeze, two pairs of eyes of differing colors equally fixed on the woman who suddenly ambushed them.
“A pair of charming sisters, the Kingdom’s people must be near extinction, letting you act as Scouts.”
