I opened an adventurer's guild in another world.

"Roar~!"

"Temporary retreat!"

As the high demons issued their orders, the attacking demons began to retreat, leaving behind only a trail of demon corpses outside the city walls.

"Huff~!"

Anno, panting heavily, stared at a high-level demon at the peak of the ninth rank, a hundred meters away.

It was this devil who ordered the retreat.

The opponent is extremely powerful.

Moreover, there was a companion of similar strength before.

The two demons, in their True Demon Unleashed state, fought to a standstill with Anno.

However, this is under the condition that Anno has not unleashed his divinity.

Now that Anno has no source of faith power, he dares not use it recklessly.

Thanks to Mu's ability to see weaknesses, Anno was able to take down one of them.

But Anno paid the price for this, as he was injured by another demon when it had the chance.

In the ensuing battle, Anno was injured, and the enemy became more vigilant after witnessing the death of their comrade.

Therefore, Anno believed that even if he unleashed his divinity, he might not be able to kill the opponent, so he never used it.

Having a higher combat strength than the opponent is one thing, but killing the opponent is another.

If the enemy is determined to escape, Anno is completely helpless against them on the current battlefield.

After the enemy gave the order to retreat, Anno had no intention of continuing the fight.

"Human, next time I, Bartosler, will surely kill you!"

Before retreating, the ninth-tier peak demon pointed at Anno and uttered a harsh threat.

Anno scoffed at this.

Over the years, he has had many enemies who have wanted to kill him.

But he is still alive and well.

If you want to kill him, you can't just talk the talk.

Anno, back on the city wall, watched as his allies returned one after another.

Unsurprisingly, many people were killed or injured.

While the dwarven fortress of Semstrong possesses strong defensive capabilities, its offensive weapons pose little threat to high-level enemies.

Once the war starts, it will still require high-level experts like Anno to fight.

"Lord Anno, the demon army on the west side and the tide of the dead at the main gate have both stopped their attack and begun to retreat."

After Zeka, who was defending the front, confirmed that the enemy had retreated, he went to the east wall and found Anno.

Anno was not surprised.

If the enemy is going to retreat, they must have planned to retreat in unison; otherwise, they would be giving the dwarves an opportunity to wipe them out.

"It's just unknown whether this attack by the enemy is a random, probing attack, or an attack with all their elite troops deployed."

Anno watched the enemy disappear into the night and couldn't help but sigh.

Given the number of powerful figures in the Demon Realm and Underworld legions today, without the arrival of these reinforcements—mainly these top-tier ninth-order peak experts—there would be at least a 60% chance of breaching Mustlong.

Even now, Anno believes that as long as the opponent continues to fight, there is still a 40-50% chance of breaking into Mstrong.

The demon army attacking from the east alone consisted of over a thousand high-ranking demons, as well as fifty or sixty ninth-rank powerhouses, including the two powerful ninth-rank peak demons that Anno was dealing with.

Not to mention the demon army on the west side, the undead tide on the front also includes at least two or three thousand giant undead skeletons and a large number of high-level undead mages, undead knights, corrupted zombies, liches, undead black warriors and other undead creatures!

With nearly five thousand high-level experts and an unknown number of troops, the pressure on Musterang's dwarf army was immense.

While this level of attack may not qualify as a decisive battle, it is certainly not an attack that was organized casually.

If they gain the upper hand, the Demon Realm and the Underworld might immediately increase their troop deployment and launch a full-scale attack.

Moreover, the unknown ritual prepared by the eight necromancers was discovered by the dwarven scouts and then interrupted in time by Anno and others.

Otherwise, who knows what might happen?

Anno didn't know exactly how many of the high-ranking dwarves in the dwarf kingdom were represented by the thousands of high-ranking dwarves he had sent to Mstrong.

However, he felt that the Dwarf King should have already sent all the high-ranking dwarves he could.

"The mysterious war equipment the dwarves mentioned will take at least another month to arrive. But the enemy's offensive has been so fierce right from the start; it looks like this month won't be easy."

Anno instructed Zeka to arrange for the elven soldiers to take a quick rest.

For the next month, we may have to constantly face attacks of this level from the enemy.

The tens of thousands of troops sent by the elves, it's unknown how many will be able to return after the war.

In the middle of the night, while Anno was in a meditative state, he suddenly heard the war horns sounding again.

Anno quickly flew to the city wall and saw that the densely packed undead had launched another attack.

"The corpses and bones on the battlefield outside the city haven't even been completely burned yet, and these undead are already here again, a bunch of scum!"

The angry shouts of dwarves dealing with the battlefield outside the city could be heard from the side.
