The Good for Nothing Seventh Young Lady
Chapter 2712: The City That Never Falls (1)

The alliance army was exhausted by the incessant fighting.

Both sides suffered heavy losses, and orders to retreat back to the city always appeared in time when the soldiers had reached their limit.

Take a rest, and then fight again.

Such a cycle was generally repeated.

The corpses piled up outside The Rising Sun City had already covered the earth. Thanks to the defensive shield of The Rising Sun City, the alliance army was able to get some rest from the battle.

The twelve devil generals and Satan didn’t show a sign of movement. Under the leadership of Xiu, the alliance army was nibbling away at the devils faster and faster.

The fighting outside The Rising Sun City had been going on for a whole month. And this entire month, from the initial disparity in strength between the two sides, the alliance army had finally reduced the devil troops to the same level as the alliance army.

With the backing of The Rising Sun City, the situation of the alliance army gradually reversed.

All this was due to the decision-making of Xiu and the bravery of the alliance soldiers.

The enemy's numerical superiority had gradually been smoothed out, which was definitely good news for their battle.

However, under such circumstances, the state of the alliance army was still extremely bad.

A month of constant fighting had nearly exhausted the war goods stockpiled in The Rising Sun City.

The potions that had been hoarded for several years had been used up and food was in short supply.

The only thing to be thankful of was that the existence of the water elemental spirit made The Rising Sun City not worry about a water shortage.

Although the several elemental spirits could not enter the war due to their principles, they still used special methods to help the alliance army after getting along with Shen Yanxiao for so long.

Unable to kill the enemy on the battlefield, they tried their best to do what they could in the city.

The heat of the day alternated with the coldness of the night. The fire elemental spirit always warmed the tired minds and bodies of the alliance soldiers with gentle flames at night.

But even so, the resources of the alliance army were already in short supply.

First and foremost was the problem of potions. All Pharmacists in the Barren Land were gathered in The Rising Sun City. These Pharmacists worked day and night to make potions, but they still could not keep pace with the consumption.

Among them, healing potions and potions that replenished magic and dou qi were consumed the fastest.

The amount of wounded people was so great that the supply of healing potions culd not meet the demand, and the replenishment potions had also failed to keep up with their use.

Almost every day, the pharmacy warehouse in The Rising Sun City would be emptied. During the battle, Pharmacists remained in the Pharmacist Union and tried their best to make potions. However, the potions they prepared with all their strength were often unable to meet the needs of the next battle.

It could be said that The Rising Sun City had been able to resist the devil army to the present and even gain certain advantages, partly because the resources accumulated in The Rising Sun City were sufficient to cope with a staggering consumption for this period.

Today, the two sides might be equal in strength, but The Rising Sun City had already run out of resources.

The fight for dominance had wiped out everything that The Rising Sun City had accumulated over the years.

Food shortage, potion shortage, medicine shortage, and so on...

A series of problems followed.

The death rate of the wounded had soared. Priests who retired from the battlefield had already exhausted their magic power. They no longer had the strength to provide healing for the wounded. With the limited medicine, Shen Qiu and his doctors could only do their best to bring more wounded people back from the struggle. However, more and more soldiers still died. If it were not for the support of the resurrection array of the undead, the large number of deaths in The Rising Sun City might have already left the alliance army in despair.
