When John, Giant Steve, Fierce Flame, Jet, and Purple Mist appeared at Hydrurond's Northern Defense Front, everything wasn't as they expected. Many parts of the wall had been destroyed. In many areas, the defenders were fighting demons and demonic bugs behind the defensive walls. Only a few of the siege weapons were still working.
"What the hell…? The situation wasn't as bad as this when we watched using Chris' spying tool," Giant Steve said.
"It has been many hours since then. We took quite a while preparing," Purple Mist offered her opinion.
"It was just a few hours, and everything has gone to shit?" Jet asked.
"Many things can happen in a few hours," John said. "But with things like this, we can't make our stand here."
"What should we do, then?" Steve asked. "This is the last defensive line for Hydurond's Northern Front. If we don't fight here, we will have to retreat through the Khan region and into Themisphere."
