The battle had reached a stalemate.
The Red and Black LANCERS were locked in fierce combat, while the Red RIDER and Black ARCHER in the forest were leaping about enthusiastically. Red ARCHER was kite-flying with Red BERSERKER in tow around the battlefield, and Black BERSERKER was mindlessly clearing out the lesser troops. And then there was...
"Boom!!"
A deafening roar erupted from the sky, and Fang Zheng looked up toward the source of the noise to see Black RIDER being hit by a magic attack released from the airborne fortress. The griffin he had been riding was reduced to ashes in the onslaught, and Black RIDER himself plummeted straight to the ground — whether he survived or not, Fang Zheng had no way of knowing.
However, it seemed that the ASSASSIN's decision to target RIDER was indeed reasonable.
But what exactly was the Red Faction waiting for?
