Chapter Two
The Siege of Lu City...!

   The ground had once again reached its fill from the fallout of the seemingly endless siege of Lu City. An unholy and unhealthy mixture of mud-&-blood from 3-nights of rain and battle! All drenched in the tainted milk-piss and massive lamian-female forms of the Ilvala of Old Adari. The Ilvala, a fusion of giantess-female upper-bodies, beautifully blended with their proportionally giantess lower beast-bodies! The frontline-force and shock-troops of Old Adari. They'd swept through the Border-Region Territories 8-years ago after over 14,000-years of continuous defeats and humiliations at the hands of their eternal-rivals and counterparts guarding the border of their even more hated enemies, the Empire of Tae-Khan-Sai.
   However this last shithole reminder of the now destroyed BRT refused to give ground or yield no matter how many hoardes of Ilvala were tossed at it! 8-years worth of some of the best bitches that Ilvala had to offer were laid low. Entire Hoarde-Queens and Hoarde-Queen Generals along with their respective hoardes were wiped out by Lu Family of Lu City, as if they were still living in their gory glory-days of being the Head of the Spear of the Border-Region Territories of the Empire of Tae-Khan-Sai.
   The last 3-nights of endless assault were now starting to look more and more like 3-nights of endless idiocy! As exhaustion and environment were working together alongside the lethal Lu City defenses to deprive the Ilvala of Mala-Hoarde of any hope of getting their ground-troops even close!
   To Lu City.
   For the waves of hard charging 4-legged Ilvala that could avoid the incoming barrages of emitter-beams and streaming cutter-beams!? There were pockets of each den of their forces that weren't able to do it! Leading to sizable amounts of Ilvala being flat out decimated by the defenses and its defenders. Never mind that the city-shields were fused with some new-type technology, reflexive-technology! That Mala-Hoarde still hadn't been able to figure out how to get around and hadn't been briefed on before being sent to this mission impossible!
   The reflex city-shields took Mala-Hoardes best beams and blasts and absorbed too much of them so that the normal city-shields weren't even being remotely stressed by them! The Mala-Hoarde technicians had correctly figured out that these reflexive-shields were then allowing all of Lu City's systems to double-n-triple their effectiveness-n-efficiency! Adding even more punch to their wall-tower weaponry! Wall-mounted emitters and emitter-arrays! So that once these weapons returned fire entire pockets of brave Ilvala-bitches were able to take massive amounts of damage, whereas before the invention of this reflexive-technology!? They would have only sustained light-to-moderate injuries and wounds, but now!? Especially whenever the city used its cutter-beam weaponry!?
   The width of the beams, the sheer size and intensity of the arcane-energy being poured out at them was ridiculous! While the Ilvala are known for their bruteforce-bullying and ability to take just as much damage as they give out. They aren't invincible, invulnerable, or as stupid as people would love to think! The casualties upon impact were oft times fatal as fuck! The Ilvala Shield-Maidens with their forcefield-abilities were quickly overwhelmed and all too often felled on the spot from having their powers completely blasted through! Where it only took a few direct hits against their forcefields from the city's cutter-beam weapons and emitter-based arrays to totally overpower them and destroy both them and their arcane-protections for their assigned-Ilvala! This  was totally unheard of because even when the BRT used to routinely kick their cunts-&-asses open!? They'd never been able to do enough damage to take out Shield-Maidens where their arcane-protections and enchantments got destroyed when they did too! Even the Heavy Shield-Maidens who have arcane-equipment saddled to their beast-bodies found themselves being taken down and taken out while trying to provide cover for their advancing armies all for naught!
   However!?
   Even with all of this?
   In typical Ilvala-form, they did keep advancing.
   Even as more-n-more of them lay in piles and pockets on the ground, drenched in mud. Soaked in rain and each other's milk-piss, blood, and broken exo-armors. Some even had their head-horns cracked and broken from yet another failed attempt to charge the heavily defended and massively well-shielded gigantic city that loomed in front of them. But for all of its size? For the dim-shimmering bronze light that engulfed it and showed that its unbreakable city-shields were still up and showing no signs of being effected by anything they'd done over the last 3-nights straight, besides waste their air-n-ground forces in a futile gesture of strategic stupidity.
   The demoralizing reality was that Lu City was still too far away for Ilvala ground-forces tastes and tolerances to take damage. Something that both sides are keenly aware of....
