"Clean up the battlefield first!" Samuel yelled at the soldiers behind.
"Yes!"
Everyone had been prepared for this battle and quickly moved forward to drag the bodies of the magic beasts that had been chopped off by Samuel away. These magic beasts would be sorted and those that could be eaten would be brought by the soldiers to be processed.
The processed meat would be handed over to the returnees and the soldiers, allowing them to replenish their strength quickly.
While it was not as effective as using the potion from Jonas Nolan, but the amount of potion was limited.
They didn't know how long the battle of attrition with these magic beasts would last.
So they have to be prepared to have enough resources to replenish their mana and stamina.
This will be a long battle.
"Riya, how's your consumption?" Samuel immediately asked.
The mana contained in these magic beasts' bodies falling around the passage were all sucked dry by the formation. It was obvious that the formation consumed a lot of mana and even if it only targeted the dead magic beasts on the other side, it wouldn't last long.
"At most an hour," Riya replied helplessly.
Even though this was a formation at rank 9, Riya could clearly sense that the mana was consumed rapidly.
It wouldn't take long before the formation was broken.
And if some higher ranked magic beasts attacked the formation, the time limit of an hour will be broken.
"In that case, we'll set up the base during the first half an hour around here." Samuel nodded and then communicated with the other generals and officials who were behind them.
They had to move quickly so that the magic beasts pouring out of the passage would not kill more people.
Riya saw Samuel was busy and didn't disturb him.
Her eyes landed on the formation in front of her as she took out a mana potion from Jonas Nolan and drank it slowly. The most effective mana potion could only recover 70% of her used mana in a short time.
This was already the best that Jonas Nolan could make.
Thankfully, this potion was effective for those above rank 7.
But the amount was not much and they were all spread all over the world, given to only the highest ranked returnees who would fight.
Considering that Samuel and Riya were already rank 9, it was indeed most cost effective to give it to them.
Once her mana was restored, Riya took a deep breath and lightly stepped in the air and started drawing the runes again. If they wanted to build a base here, then she better bought more time.
Because concrete and so on will definitely take time to solidify.
And the weapon in the distance will definitely take more time.
Sensing the attack on the formation, RIya snorted and tossed some higher ranked magic beasts' cores, forcing the formation to operate at rapid speed and killing those magic beasts on the other side.
Countless roar could be heard.
But the formation remained stable.
