Reinforcements

The enchanted doorway had been destroyed, but there were still tens of thousands of elderly, women, and children who did not manage to get away in time.

Zero had given the Northwest Army three minutes to disperse the crowd. But the problem was that these tens of thousands of people were all in the vicinity of the enchanted doorway. Three minutes was too tight, so there would surely be some who didn't manage to get away.

After the explosion, the Great Hoodwinker immediately tallied the casualties. He realized hundreds of people had been injured by the shrapnel and gravel in the missile bombardment.

Hundreds of soldiers from the Northwest Army in charge of evacuating the crowd were also injured or killed.

No one had expected such a situation. With the enchanted doorway gone, it meant the elderly, women, and children would have to evacuate to Fortress 178 on foot.
