118 The Tide

For the rest of the day, their small portion of the line got much busier, with units passing by every hour and dozens of messengers running back and forth as everyone got set up for the new deployment. 

According to the messages, this wide valley was one of the easiest spots for the Monster Tide to reach other than the main lines, so they would naturally send the most forces in this direction.

"All five barrier sections on this portion of the flank are ready for activation." The scout team reported over the radio later that evening.

 

It was strange having four other teams within the range of the handheld radio, not nearly as peaceful as they had gotten used to, but the dust cloud of the monster tide was already visible in the sky past the horizon, so they didn't have any time to wait, the barrier needed to go up and start charging with mana right now.
