936 Provocation

Being hit by that terrifying attack, the fort's defense system was instantly roused, and the metal plates covering the entire fort shone brightly.

With the fort's railroad system acting as an array pattern, a large amount of energy started moving through the circuit, and the energy within the three large mana reactors erupted.

These remaining wisps either ran out of power or fell into the earth, absorbed by the fort's city walls.
