Everyone became tense again, and soon, they started to inform the warriors who were still fighting the demons outside of the barrier to return to the castle before midnight.
Knowing that there was a chance that the natural disaster field, the sky and the ground arrays, and the barriers around the castle, might all be lost after midnight, the survivors started to use up all those large killing weapons to kill as many demons as possible.
They could not waste everyone's effort to create those arrays, and the natural disaster field, so the only way to properly consume those things was by killing more demons in a short period of time before midnight.
The survivors seemed to be injected with a lot of energy and out of the blue, everyone worked extremely hard to kill more demons before midnight.
Even if there was a chance that they might really be able to escape from the demons for a while after the map changed, everyone subconsciously speculated the worst case possible.
The survivors no longer cared about whether the map would change or not, and now, all they could do is to directly reduce the number of abyss demons on the battlefield.
However, the people outside of the island still racked their brains to help the survivors in the Island.
Since changing the map of the island might not be a safe way for these survivors to delay time until the fairy of space came, then, could they do something to the dimensional holes that kept sending abyss demons to that Island?
It was not as if no one ever thought about this because in the past, the existence of dimensional holes were indeed the ones threatening the lives of many ordinary people in many countries.
In the past, the capital city of Godlif Country must have been the most dangerous place in the country just because of the dimensional holes there.
The dimensional holes appeared and disappeared randomly, but such a hole could kill countless ordinary people in just a few seconds.
Many experts had thought of a way to seal the dimensional holes or prevent the dimensional holes from appearing in cities with a lot of ordinary people.
To be honest, ordinary people lived a bad life when it was still the era of great war and chaos.
The ordinary people here referred to humans who had not awakened their abilities yet or would never awakened one in their entire life.
The majority of human beings were ordinary people, and compared to non-human races who were born extraordinary even when they might also not be able to awaken any special abilities...
Humans were too weak.
Not to mention that the abyss demons often appeared in cities with a lot of ordinary people because back then, maybe the abyss demons paid more attention to these ordinary people than ability users.
Experts had tried various ways to reduce the number of dimensional holes, researching a way to suppress this hole, or do anything possible so that no demons could use dimensional holes to prey on ordinary humans.
However, it seemed that there was only a way to prevent the dimensional holes from appearing in certain areas, or reduce the number of dimensional holes that might appear. I think you should take a look at
Still, dimensional holes could not be destroyed so easily, and that's why, Godlif Country's capital city still had many dimensional holes emitting scattered miasma and random monsters every single day.
Now, the family members of the survivors wanted to seal the dimensional holes or do something about it, but all they could do was to kill as many demons outside of the island as possible so that the number of demons entering the island would naturally decrease.
Time passed by, and soon, it was only ten minutes before midnight. All warriors who were fighting outside of the castle had already returned to the castle one after another, and they all gathered at the three rooftops.
The barriers were still there, and the arrays were also active, but more and more barriers broke down, leaving only a minimum amount to protect the castle tightly.
The demons had been crowding the area right outside of the castle, but unlike when the demons focused on attacking the survivors, now, many demons were busy fighting each other due to the abnormal demons who started to attack their fellow clansmen.
The number of demons that really attacked the castle was much less than before, and the burden on the warriors also became lighter.
The number of casualties on the survivors' side had been suppressed so that, in the end, before midnight, there were less than 50 casualties.
This number was already very good, considering that there were only 1000 survivors facing half a million of demons.
70% or 80% of the survivor group was also students, not contestants, so for this group to only have less than 50 casualties was already the best state possible.
People had to admit that it was Ainsley and the 50 vanguard's roles that suppressed the number of casualties on their side, and without Ainsley's bloodline suppression, how could they last for so long?
Five minutes before midnight, everyone silently looked at the black sky and the dark night around them, deep in thoughts and worries.
There were almost no stars visible in the sky, and even the moon was also hiding behind thick black clouds.
No one knew since when snow started to fall down, or maybe the snow was from the natural disaster field that they made and was blown away by the wind.
The survivors stayed on the rooftops wearing thick clothes, and each of them had this visible exhaustion on their faces.
Midnight is coming.
