A beam of light pierced the dark clouds, leaving a conspicuous hole in the thick cloud layer. If one were to look up, they could even see the blue sky behind the clouds through the opening. But this beam of light shone down upon the city walls, moving slowly along them.
The light was extremely blinding; no one could keep their eyes open. Even with eyes closed, they could still feel the intense light penetrating their eyelids and striking their pupils. Many soldiers had to turn their backs to the beam to find some relief.
When the defending general saw this, his heart sank on the spot. This is bad. Could something have gone wrong?
The envoy from the Royal Palace had patted his chest and assured him that this kind of interruption magic formation was enough to protect the army. In fact, it had indeed prevented direct intervention, but… Why couldn't it block light?
Besides, that light looked like sunlight no matter how you looked at it. Was it merely to temporarily blind the soldiers on the wall? Something was not right.
