Ignoring Belina, who was wearing a confinement ring and looked as if she had lost everything while joining her new inmates, Pei Yan withdrew his gaze and looked toward the other battlefields. The ground combat had reached its most intense moment. To Pei Yan's surprise, faced with an enemy ten times their number, the special envoy's garrison, which could have opted to surrender, chose not to lay down their weapons but kept fighting till the end. Unfortunately, this resistance achieved nothing but increasing casualties against the overwhelming superiority.
Looking around, only Little Friedrich, a mid-level Demon, was no match for Ye Ruozai, and he was captured alive even before Belina. Now, only Dieterma was left among the main offenders. He was being besieged by Elder Lin and two others, equivalent to eighth-level Awakened, and couldn't fend for himself. Meanwhile, Director Mei and Instructor Ni were also applying pressure two against one with ease.
