The great plains of central Fianzo, outside Teotihuacan, the former sacred Fadlan capital.

The hundred-meter-high white city wall stands on the earth, stretching for hundreds of miles, majestic and magnificent. Huge golden sun emblems are engraved on the weathered wall.

But even such a tall city wall cannot block the "Tower of the Eternal Sun God" in the city, nor can it block the spire that soars into the clouds.

It was a huge three-story pentagonal spire, with a golden hemispherical top that reached sixty-eight stories above the ground, allowing observers to look up and see the sun disk of Amaunator from anywhere in the central plains.

Once upon a time, every summer solstice, the sun disk on the top of the tower would radiate endless light, making everyone in the city feel peaceful in their hearts and warm in their bodies.

This is Teotihuacan, the "Sunny City".

Any traveler or merchant who has come here will be shocked by its grandeur and be impressed by the unparalleled national strength of Holy Fadlan.

Even though the "Tower of the Eternal Sun God" has become dim and the once-powerful Holy Fadlan Empire has fallen apart, people can still feel the lost splendor and glory through the Holy City.

The ground outside the city was full of holes.

The air was filled with smoke.

Dried bloodstains, piled up corpses, and even the remains of a god with wings on its back.

This kind of scene can be seen everywhere on this devastated battlefield. Even the city walls are covered with holes and cracks - after all, the three kingdoms have fought dozens of wars around this city.

On the thick white city walls, Cassander's military flags stood in rows, and warriors wearing heavy golden armor raised their weapons and shouted.

There were also spellcasters wearing bright and luxurious robes with sun embroidery on their bodies. They held magic wands, and the magic gems on them shone brightly, creating a golden shield outside the city wall.

Giant golden crossbows were also aimed outside the city, and Cassander's soldiers tried their best to load them with hot, burning, thick arrows.

Cheers came and went.

"Praise the sun!"

"For the Kingdom of Cassander!"

"Your Majesty Otis is the real emperor, kill these rebels!"

"It is these rebels who caused us to lose the protection of the great Sun God! Only by getting rid of them can His Majesty Otis welcome the return of God!"

On the city wall, a tall man wearing golden armor, a heavy horn helmet, with blazing flames in his eyes, raised a long sword with one arm and roared loudly.

He is Eli Gianvito Velasquez, the divine Duke of the Kingdom of Cassander, the favorite general of Aragon I - and one of the first legendary warriors to receive the gift of the sun god.

He was notorious and followed the old emperor in his battles. He once killed a Balrog with his own hands.

"Marshal Eli!"

"Wan Sheng!"

"Fight for His Majesty Otis! Fight to restore Holy Fadran!"

As soon as Duke Eli spoke, the morale on the city wall was immediately boosted. The soldiers of the Kingdom of Cassander shouted loudly with overwhelming momentum.

The gods of the Kingdom of Cassander are mainly huge in size, fair-skinned, and have perfect figures, like flawless sculptures wearing heavy armor.

He received the gift of the sun god and gained power similar to the "Supreme Heaven", the descendants of the celestial realm in the upper plane, so he is often called the "descendant of the Titans".

—And so was their king, Otis of Aragon.

"shut up!"

"This is total disobedience!"

High in the sky outside the city, a female warrior with huge, glorious wings behind her and a giant sword filled with explosive divine power in her hand raised the sword with one hand, looking down at Eli on the city wall.

"Elai! You are the real rebels! You are the culprits that caused His Majesty to leave!"

"You have abandoned your faith!"

Her eyes were also filled with flames, and in the center of her helmet was the holy symbol of the sun, with wing-shaped metal decorations on both sides.

Every time the brilliant wings behind her waved, sparks would be emitted. This angelic female warrior was named Tirena Star Angel, also a duke of divine descent and a legendary paladin blessed by the sun god.

She also received the gift of the Sun God and gained power similar to that of angels such as the "Archangels" in the upper plane, so she was called the "Angel Descendant".

—And so was their king, Wilham Aragon.

Behind Tirena, there were hundreds of lightly-armored warriors with wings on their backs, flying high in the sky outside the holy city, almost covering the sky.

But their wings are not as huge and brilliant as Tirena's.

Tirena waved her wings, raised the giant sword filled with explosive divine power, and shouted loudly.

"You are so arrogant and ignorant, Cassanders!"

"Everyone, take back the Holy City!"

"Rebuild the glory of Fadlan and retake Teotihuacan!"

As she shouted, the gilded wings fluttered down from behind her, making the scene even more sacred.

"Rebuild the glory of Fadlan and retake Teotihuacan!"

Whether it was the God-Descendants Legion in the sky or the Thracian soldiers on the ground, they were all shouting in unison, their voices shaking the clouds and even overwhelming the other side.

And on the ground, there are not only legions of mortals, but also reinforcements of gods from the Seleucid Kingdom - they have received power similar to that of the "Gadin Clan", some have the heads of horses, some have the heads of deer, and some even have the heads of dragons.

Amaunator sometimes exercises or manifests his favor or displeasure through the following beings: emerald dragons, sapphire dragons, steel dragons, sun falcons, brown dogs, cream cats, snow-white wolves, and pure white stallions.

The descendants of gods in the Seleucid Kingdom often obtained the power of these extraordinary beings and had heads different from those of mortals, so they were also called "descendants of gods favored by the saints."

——And so is their king, Elodie Aragon.

It is said that His Majesty has a dragon head and a human body.

The military flags of various kingdoms flew simultaneously on the battlefield. All of them had the holy emblem of the sun, but there were three different versions.

The holy emblem of the Kingdom of Cassander is the sun and crossed swords and shield, the holy emblem of the Kingdom of Thracia is the sun and spread wings, and the holy emblem of the Kingdom of Seleucid is the sun and a sideways dragon head.

"The Holy City will only belong to Cassander."

"When His Majesty Otis recovers Thrace and the Seleucid region, the glory of the empire will reappear - His Majesty Aragon will also be able to rest in peace."

Eli narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at the coalition forces of the two countries occupying the ground and the sky not far away, and spoke in a low voice.

Thinking of this, he swung his sword vigorously and shouted loudly: "Soldiers of the Kingdom of Cassander, defend the Holy City to the death!"

"Kill the rebels!"

"Shh-"

Suddenly, a crescent-shaped blade light shot up into the sky, carrying terrible heat and flames, heading straight towards Tirena in the sky.

"kill!"

"Kill the rebels! Defend the holy city!"

The generals on the city wall shouted in unison.

At the same time, huge arrows were shot down from the top of the city wall, attacking the coalition forces outside the city like a storm.

The spellcasters of Cassander's Arcane Legion also raised their staffs, and rays of light, flames, lightning and even hurricanes descended from the city walls.

The attack from the Kingdom of Cassander was no less than a natural disaster.

War is about to break out.

This is the dozens of battles that have taken place over the Holy City. (End of this chapter)
