Demonic Stampede (Part 1)

The atmosphere within Lonestar City was one of singing and dancing and seemed disconnected from their current situation of being surrounded. There were only 200,000 soldiers in the city and more than 500,000 spirits of the dead. The strange design of the city had allowed the spirits to take up more responsibility for the city's defense.

Plenty of huge equipment was lined up along the top of the three towering castles, without any defensive loopholes in sight. The city was built into the mountains with only one side with a wall. It would not be possible to take the city down by attacking from the front and rear.

There were more than 200 death mages in the city, but in actual fact, they would not be able to control all the spirits of the dead. In the middle of the city and in front of an eight story magic tower was a 100 yard tall tree. There was a death aura about the tree, and instead of growing leaves, it grew thin gray threads that swayed in the wind.
