It wasn't just Fred who had reached this conclusion.
Arial watched it all unfold. His eyes remained fixed on the Silver Golem, still walking slowly behind the Iron Golem's line…
It hadn't attacked. But it was getting dangerously closer.
He turned to his team.
"We're pulling back."
Torren looked up. "You sure?"
"We're not stopping this…" Arial said. "Not here. Not like this."
In the meantime, Mark also had similar thoughts. He could also tell the situation from the signs. The knights were slowly retreating, the mages were drained, and their mana guns were no longer effective…
And the Iron Golems were still coming!
"Fall back…" He said to his team after seeing the Knight's slow retreat…
"Just controlled retreat! Don't run… rotate and cover!"
The knights, mages, and adventurers began to withdraw, moving in pairs, shielding each other as they stepped back toward the secondary barricade.
