The horn for battle preparations fell, and the soldiers quickly got into position.
The spiritual energy cannons on the city walls were activated one by one, with light blue energy lines spreading along the barrels. The muzzles gathered scattered light points, aimed at the approaching storm from the northwest.
On the ice wall, the soldiers were fully equipped, with energy rifles loaded with ice-breaking bullets in their right hands, cold weapons in their left, and spiritual energy grenades in their tactical packs at their waists. The collar of their special frost-resistant suits glowed faintly green—a standby activation indicator of a small energy shield. By pressing the collar button, they could deploy a close-fitting shield to ward off icy particles and extreme cold from the storm.
